Sequel would have been set in Italy if I'm not mistaken. Would have been great. I remember an interview with Arnold Hendricks that was posted here a while back, he is into MMO's now, doesn't have a lot of love for his underrated masterpiece and no plans to ever pick the idea up again.

Serpent in the Staglands may look like it copied part of Darklands artstyle, it really doesn't play anything like Darklands. And it is defenitely fantasy.

Anyway, have been hoping for a sequel to Darklands since getting the original boxed copy. Such an amazing concept and game that felt like it could do with an expansion or sequel to flesh out the lesser parts. Only getting missions for removing spiders from warehouses does tend to get dull after all. What's depressing is how the original (and amazing) manual clearly stated that they wanted to make a series of games out of it. Alas. No great content mods either.

A hundred, a thousand... no - a million times this ! Will probably never be done, the title wasn't very popular and is only remembered by few so no chance for a revival hoping for cashing in the old popularity (maybe thats for the best).

dayum, that art really makes plain the superiority of good culture and art design, not to mention 2d illustrations to 3d renders.

And a bonus from our QA :

Oh my god [redacted] becoming a [redacted] is the saddest thing.
and I can't even talk about the #GoodEnd because it's just too awesome to describe with [redacted]s! #SixAges

edit: Oh, I forgot. (and it's been hinted at on Twitter, so it should be fine) Music is being thought/worked on. Yes, by Stan LePard. \o/

I find it a bit weird that he wouldn't know that using variables is more efficient than calling events manually. Is this something C++ couldn't do in KoDP? I haven't coded since Visual Basic but this was entry-level coding by then (I think).

Still, can't get enough of this, really looking forward to 6A.
