    Well, nearly:


    Obsidian has Black Isle, Troika, Interplay developer team members, and it looks like its possible that with time Obsidian becomes the 'true heir' to all of them.


    Here a link to the Obsidian site/forums:

    http://www.obsidianent.com/


    Right now Obsidian Entertainment is working on an Alien game (like the movies), and other, not named games.




    (I thought as I loved all of the former mentioned developer teams, I register here to share this information with you all)


    PS: Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

    Merry Christmas to you too!

    And lets hope that any games they make are in the spirit of Troika.

    It's just a little hard to be excited about somebody making spell effects and a programmer, the graphics in every Troika game has been wonderful but the other parts of the game have been what I've played them for. And a Troikian programmer, no thank you.

    Still good news, and good you told us about it.

    Happy new year, hope you stay here.

    My first post was in the Arcanum Discussion forum. I hijacked someone else's thread to get my own question answered.

    Well from what I have heard (Vorak), Jarinor and the others spent most of his time flaming newbies in the general Discussion area of the forum anyways.....

    That's right. If you sneak in through another forum (like the RP forum, which is what I did), you have a much better chance of survival.

    I sneaked in through the Arcanum Tips & Tricks forum. :)

    And then I dug up the oldest post in the GD, and no one flamed me. :p

    Yes.
    You could sneak into our current thread as some sort of mystical spud with a power over earth and plants that grow in it.
    Or a man with a spud-like face with the same power.
