Wait are those the guys who made Alpha Protocoll?

That game sucked bit times.

I thought so too. Story was good, but the gameplay was below average and even though it claimed to be an RPG it had only very few RPG elements and many of them were useless.

Yes, but I wonder why you think the same will happen when they actually want to do an oldschool hardcore RPG, like Icewind Dale and Planescape? That's what they do best, and they're not limited by a publisher who wants 'modernizations'.

The question is how many employees are still left from those times. Because in recent times all they did was building a sequel upon an existing and very intact IP where they could copy almost all gameplay elements and just add a new story. And while these sequels were good, they never exceeded their predecessors in quality.


Btw. I like how their world map basically looks like Europe.
