Yeah I believe he found some work. Grave is a good guy so I am glad he landed on his feet pretty fast.
At the bare minimum I can see some interest in just the art assets.Will anyone ever buy it? What would be the point? The entire value of the IP is a single console game that seems to have garnered as much praise as ridicule. I doubt they would even have the legal right to say "brought to you from the minds of RA Salvatore and Todd McFarlane!"
Supposedly Amalur 2 was in development when 38 Studios shut down, so I could see EA having a little interest. Though, they also have Dragon Age 3 in development, so do they really need two fantasy RPG franchises?Will anyone ever buy it? What would be the point?

KoA sold over a million copies. That has value.
Sure, I'd pay a couple grand for the IP just to pop out some shitty 10 day dev time "expansions" to the game to scoop as much from the suckers as I could. I'm talking about REAL value - the kind RI would give a shit about. The IP is worthless in the scheme of things.The entire value of the IP is a single console game that seems to have garnered as much praise as ridicule.
I guess I should rephrase what I said. I'm not sure if anything will come of the IP and honestly, I don't really care at this point. It had the potential to grow into something big and scoffing off more than a million in sales seems ridiculous considering how many bombastic failures the videogame market sees. I actually enjoyed Reckoning but it was janky as hell (funny considering all the polish talk Schilling pushed down people's throat) and with some refinements, a sequel could have further solidified Amalur. A lot of that has changed now. I'm no expert with this; considering all of the turmoil and drama that's latched on to the series, it's present day value could be shit.I disagree, but we'll see if and when it sells eh? If I'm wrong you're welcome to come back and tell me so. Hell, I'll even avatar bet on it.
Getting OP is pretty easy in Reckoning and even on hard the game was a breeze. The shotgun-like bow skill you can get destroyed just about anything. The MMO quest hub shit killed any desire to consider going through the game again.I enjoyed a lot about KoA when it came to crafting and finding gear and making completely OP builds. But the actual game was a string of MMORPG solo quest hubs. That shit was awful.
