Bah, i dont buy it, looks like someone wanted their 15seconds of fame. I think theres a bigger chance for Icewind Dale 3, than BG3

yea, I think I'm with Peltz. The BG saga is over. Any new D&D games seem to be set in the new worlds (probably trying to drive sales to all this D&D crap). Blah... give me Forgotten Realms and Dragonlance... those are the only worlds I ever cared about.

Ah, now that would be nice. I'd like to see Vampire: Masquerade too... bigger city, more sandboxy like GTA. That would make for a truly badass game.

Heh, yeah. If you apply the VTM abilities with such a world you could make something truly awesome, because some of them can be used in public without violating the masquerade and some can't. And some, like celerity, can be used up to a certain level before breaching the masquerade...running very fast isn't THAT freaky, but running faster than a car would raise some suspicion.
Add to that your superhuman abilities as a vampire like jumping strength over rooftops and fences, or even flying in 'war form' if you're a gangrel with protean...neat. And a day/night cycle would add an extra element to the whole feel with a "shit get inside a safe place before dawn" rush if you find yourself too far out at the night's end.
Yeah, definitely potential there. Definitely.

Pff Pev, that's like saying that somebody sucks just because they're getting paid/working for a crappy company. You saying Satis is a lamer? hehehe
I can't imagine Bioware signing a contract with EA that allows them to be overruled too much on their design choices...but then, who knows. We'll have to wait and see. For now, I consider any Bioware-slagging sacrilege :p
I have to agree with everyone on Atari, though. It's not that they make BAD games...they're just flawed. Like Fahrenheit

Sucking the last penny we can from it are we?
I already proposed fans should regroup and (re)make the game properly. My proposals were not taken seriously on some larger forums about four years ago through. *sigh* Maybe they responded later in more constructive tone but I wasn't there to read so I can't be held responsible if they make it in the end. Maybe I should reappear there and watch them bow down. Heh... whatever. Anyway, it is always easier to wait and see so be it. Sit and watch. I'm fine with the existing parts. I work at my own project presently.
BG3 still has potential... of sort. Basically there are two possible storylines:
* If the protagonist has taken the throne, he can be somebody who fight against/for his established regime. Or he can keep the role and fight gods or whatever.
* If the protagonist hasn't taken the throne, he continued living a peaceful life. Disturb it and the story can go on.
Those two can vary on further.
After 1/4 of it, I played NWN only to finish it, not because I enjoyed it. It was utterly boring.
