Mike Laidlaw leaves BioWare

[vortex]

Bioware's back-to-basics approach is rtwp + isometric + party based. A glimmer of hope in rtwp dark future.

Laidlaws work on HL 1 is genuinely good

 

[Infinitron]

That's Marc Laidlaw.

How long until the first kickstarter announcement video "We are the guys who gave you these games. But now we need your help!"

I though he was apart of the Waylanders team still or did he quit that too?

A kickstarter during corona time will be fail for sure.

It will like be Fig like Summerfall studios and ex-Bioware Gaider, not Kickstarter

Fig because of unions, I think but not sure how much Summerfall earned from Fig vs Kickstarter

I though he was apart of the Waylanders team still or did he quit that too?

He quit a long time ago and left Emily Buck in charge even though he has apparently never worked with her on a project

They still advertise him on Steam page however

I mean PF WOR KS was also on corona time. I guess it was early lockdown so the impact wasn't as big

But that was a sequel to an RPG that had been as successful as an isometric partybased RPG can hope to be.

Those old farts probably consider themselves too profound and artistically elevated to make an RPG. They will need 3d acting and full VO for their turd.

Speaking of old farts: What's David Geyder up to these days?

WHAT WE BELIEVE IN
Emergent Systems Create Rich, Interactive Worlds

Emergent
Interactive worlds simulated with rich systems that create memorable interactions.

Intriguing
Beautiful worlds that challenge the mind and inspire the imagination.

Worth Watching
Compelling experiences for both players and viewers alike.

Sounds like a Ubisoft model with a coat of Larian than a BioWare successor.

Is this the Disco Elysium prequel about the young years of the woman whose husband Harry and Kim found dead on the pier?

Nah it was just before it came to evropa,normal people didn't even knew about corona.Now everyone is scared shitless and don't know if the shit go even worst,and not in the mood to waste money on such shit.

That's logical behaviour for everyone with survival:1 and intelligence:1. That should be the case. But how do you explain that all big game publishers and money wasters like GTA Online and similar cancers have record high profits during this Fake Plague?

 

[Xamenos]

People stay inside, they have to fill the gaping void at the center of their existence with something other than thinking or family, they pay for GTA. I'm not sure where the big mystery is.

Retarded kids,they don't know what kickstarter,you can't have nostalgia when you are 13.

I love this 3 icon system! It's simple, yet bold. Visually powerful, yet minimal and easy to digest. This is definitely a studio run by prestigious gentlemen who wear turtlenecks.

It has taken Tim Cain triangles to heart

Not much interest in anything ex-Bioware developers make, everything they touch turns to shit

There are almost no coments on this game on the Fig site. Even on the latest update. Most comments are from 2019?

I do not think using Fig was a good idea. But also, maybe the game was not a good idea either. Will see.
