Pillars of Louisiana. A post nuclear POE/Fallout crossover.

 

[One-and-a-half-Ivan]

Josh also tweeted a song from True Detective S2. The first season of the show takes place in Louisiana as well.
Coincidence? I think not.

 

[Duraframe300]

Project Louisiana?

Yes.

At least Louisiana is next if I'm counting games correctly.

 

[One-and-a-half-Ivan]

So Louisiana is probably POE2, right? Because it's Sawyer's project.

 

[Sensuki]

I wonder if they're going to share a building or something, or both just diving in due to the tax concessions

Anyway, calling Codex detectives, time to break the scoop for a new article ?

 

[Infinitron]

Uh, what?

 

[Athelas]

Someone should probably do some digging in the trademark databases, with all the talk about a possible Kickstarter for a new IP and Stormlands possibly being an IP they get to keep as well.

I don't think that's newsworthy.

I think Bubbles was implying certain Codexers would be a good fit for that job.

I do that occasionally. Most companies are more careful* about this than inXile, though. For example, Bethesda's Fallout 4-related trademarks didn't show up until the day it was announced.

*(or "careful", considering Fargo has probably figured out this is a decent marketing tactic)

I'm going to second Infinitron (I think?) on that one and say "Uh, what?".

Insomniac is a Sony-partnered developer, Obsidian's Stormlands was supposed to be an XBone launch title, so of course it's a coincidence.

Not really. Sunset Overdrive was an X1 exclusive, Fuse was multiplatform.

 

[hemtae]

For what its worth, Insomniac also made XBone exclusive title Sunset Overdrive.

 

[Sensuki]

I wonder if this is a hint from oldm8 Dim

 

[Athelas]

Maybe it's the equivalent of a pity brofist.

 

[Irenaeus II]

PoE2 will be named Yorktown

 

[Sensuki]

I think Louisiana is a project they just started (PoE2 most likely), so I doubt there is an Indiana or Mississippi

 

[Fairfax]

Louisiana can't be PoE II because AW is Ohio and the Brian Heins project is more recent than AW. IIRC Sawyer also said they'd work on it after the expansion.

 

[Infinitron]

What are you up to there Josh. Seems too late to be related to White March Part 2.

Maybe this is how he is training his younger protege designer.

Oooh:
