Baldur's Gate 3

Post by Malluas »

anyone else heard anything about it?

i just caught a glimpse of some articles about it as in they might have it done and released by 2006

as long as its not online and a fee i am there heh

IF it comes out... but this time it isn't made by Black Isle sooo, maybe it won't be as good. Atari (NWNs) wasn't as good as i thought it was gonna be, so hopefully they don't screw up BG

I bought the second one today... I love EB games. Not sure if it's just here in Savannah, but it's a game shop that sells used titles for half the price of a *new* game. For example... I just paid 17 dollars for ESPN 2k5 NFL today and paid 17 dollars for other titles I got. They're used, but hell no scratches and they test them before selling, so why pay 40 and 50?

Anyway, I tried Marrowind, but I don't like the way you have to move and look with both hands... It's annoying... I suppose I have just gotten used to using a mouse over the years.

Fable just rocks.

The Legacy of Kain also owns.

LoTR - well I don't think I need to comment on it's ownage.

Anyway, I've heard that Star Wars the Clone Wars is a pretty decent game... anyone played it? Comments?

I would also like to try some other titles if anyone has any suggestions. I'm just not into the military style games. SOCOM was good, but I could never get into Rainbow 6... odd for someone who played years worth of Quake...

Anyway, I loved Onimusha 3 Demon Seige... that's more my speed for Xbox/PSII - the only problem is Onimusha isn't made for Xbox, thus, I'll probably end up just buying a PSII.

I wanna see how Battle for Middle Earth is. Looks cool.


BG2 is great,

Morrowind is good, but takes some time gettin used to leveling and such.

hahaha you played morrowind without turning on mouselook?

win


as far as Baldur's Gate: if it's not made by BioWare and it's not with the Infiniti engine, what's the point? The saga was completely concluded in the expansion to BG2. The only thing I see this game doing is pushing the title. the Baldur's Gate saga was completed. Finished. Finito.

heard they MIGHT be going either way in the future or in the past for it


well its gonna be done by bioware/atari/whatever else cause they own the rights now.

now it could also be just something not even havin to do with the original BG story. Just using BG to sell it, and have it like NWNs somehow... eventho NWN II is in the process of startin to be made also

if it's a prequel then i guess that's cool but i still don't see how it'd be fun because you basically start the story in bg1 as a level 1 nobody and end up as a lvl 30+ god at the end of the 100s of hours of gameplay that spans the two titles and their expansions.


i'm going to naturally look down on this until i read more, though

The next NWN game will be out about the same time frame as BG3.
Atari is makeing NWN with the input of the orginal NWN teams.
