On the one hand, I have loved most of what they have done (Tides of Numera not withstanding) and a couple of the guys there are personal friends from way back. On the other hand, the recent Xbox exclusive thing puts me off since I am a PS5 whore and I cannot help bot notice "strong kangress" trope shit. Major Bioshock vibes, but Atomic Heart also had those and proved mediocre. More Wasteland less shooterRPG please, guys.

I had a visceral reaction when I saw the nogress too, dunno, after so much content of character I can't help but have a reaction now to any of them.

I read the story from the game director and didn't even watch the trailer. He worked on both V:TM and Arcanum, so if he is really trying to make a V:TM game in a Arcanum world, then it should be a good game. It's too early to tell though.

I didn't like Numenera or Bard's Tale 4, but Wasteland 2/3 were great.

Chad Moore is the game director. I don't recognize his name, but it says he was a lead artist and designer at Troika.

Jason Anderson is also back at inXile and he was one of the Troika founders. I don't know his job title, as they don't have it listed on their website, nor is there a wiki page for the game yet.

Tim Cain is simi-retired and making videos about gaming history now days:

Arcanum is one of those games that really stuck with me. InXile games have been hit and miss, we'll see. I'll hope for the best, but prepare for the worst!

I hope not. Bioshock Infinite was the most disappointing game I ever played. The story had so many good mysteries and ways to go at the beginning and it turned into a giant shitty mess. Fuck that game.

I think I've played this before - it ends at a lighthouse. There is always a lighthouse.
