Oh yeah, I forgot about that whole cancellation thing. 4 years is a long time I guess. What a mess.

Heh, BrotherNone is indeed the lead writer of the AAA(+A?) RPG.

 

[Russia is over. The end.]

I hope it's about an alternative universe with the Nazis or something, where Beekers can really shine.

Brother None's moved up in the world, just like Gill.

Chad and Jason's AAA RPG seems like a FPS-RPG. Supposed to be a Bethesda Fallout killer like Avowed was to Elder Scrolls, maybe. But seriously, unless the previous concept art is nothing I'd guess it's sci-fi or space fantasy-ish thing than post-apoc.

Making Fallout and Skyrim killers seems counterproductive now that Microsoft owns all that shit.

What previous concept art?

Retrofuture Gothic Horror?

 

[Wunderbar]

First-person Arcanum.

 

[LESS T_T]

What previous concept art?

First-person Arcanum.

Maybe it's something like a reverse to Journey to the Centre of Arcanum, exploring outer space instead of subterranean worlds, Journey through the Skies of Arcanum.

(Btw probably not Arcanum itself, since they said this is a "brand new universe".)

 

[Wunderbar]

Journey through the Skies of Arcanum.

Arcanum - a Trip to the Moon

 

[RepHope]

Yeah but Obsdian and InXile had no clue MS was in talks to buy Bethesda. It does beg the question of what they’re planning to do in the future though. If they might try other stuff beyond simply playing catch up with Bethesda.

 

[Russia is over. The end.]

Does anyone remember what inXile spent on TTON and BT4? I think they spent like 4 to 8 mill out of their own pocket on TTON, and maybe on BT4 too? I can't find that info anymore.

Also, anyone got info on TTON and BT4 sales?

You mean Sunless Skies?

By the way, who has the rights to Arcanum?

There it is !

SteamPunk AAA RPG is fucking hype.

Arcanum is published by Sierra Entertainment, that company is eventually purchased by Activision.

So yeah, those guy i think owned that IP right now.

If they are planning to just release skyrim or fallout clone i think they are just doing fine, All Microsoft care is as long those game they produce is going to raise subscription number for Gamepass. They will be allowed to do whatever they want.

How receptive are they to selling licenses, like EA did with Wasteland?

 

[Kazuki]

Looking at Vampire Bloodlines another IP previously owned by Activision, i think they have a chance to sell the IP if the price is right. It's an old ass game and if they have no plan for immediate future regarding that franchise, might as well sell that IP.
