[QUOTE="lkjopajdowma, post: 4079750, member: 55568"] Obsidian (NWN2 and KotOR2) isn't bad as long as they're not rushed. Both of those games were...decent. They were certainly unfinished but what was there was really good, even if it was a little rough around the edges. But after playing the Mask of the Betrayer expansion for NWN2, I'm convinced they can make a damn fine game, as long as they have the time to finish it. If they give the future games to Obsidian, and they don't have to take the time to build an engine from the ground up(like they did for NWN2, and even then the engine is pretty poorly optimized), they can do great work. Sadly though, unless EA gets the rights to D&D, we won't see another Bioware D&D game. But actually, Atari has CD Projekt under their wings now, and they made The Witcher, which aside from some shoddy translation/VO on Atari's part(which they are actually fixing with a patch and "extended edition" in May) is a really good first effort. After the success of the Witcher they hired a bunch of new people, and I believe they are working on 2 as of yet unrevealed projects. It wouldn't surprise me if they had been contracted by Atari for a D&D based game. The Witcher has been a lot of fun, and I would be really excited to see them take a crack at a D&D game. [/QUOTE]
