Ew. I've gone off it already. :P (RTD did some good stuff, not least resurrecting the show, but I'm more than happy to see him go as the showrunner... especially when he turned regeneration into death!)

Still, the mere thought of a British BioWare studio makes me a happier person, unlikely as it is.

Though since Canada's in the Commonwealth and they share our Queen, they're pseudo-British as far as I'm concerned, anyway.  :P (Despite all the French!)


ok well maybe not lead writer, but definitely on the team, and a British-based studio would be great, we need more than Eidos and Lionhead Studios, and then they could hire me as a concept artist B)

Once again, FREELANCER. And, in another bout of fanboyism, The Wheel of Time. Needs a DECENT game, not the balderdash I've found so far. >.>

I wouldn't mind seeing a freelancer rpg. When I first played it, I thought the story bits (where you actually interact with people and converse etc) where going to be far more substantial and was disappointed to find it was simply space combat. There is definitely huge potential in it

Fallout's getting the Obsidian RPG treatment with New Vegas, which isn't too far off. (Though I think they're sticking to F3 style gameplay)



I think the "Acts of Caine" universe created by Matt Stover ("Heroes Die", "Blade of Tyshalle", "Caine Black Knife") would make for one of the most epic RPG settings ever. It features a brilliant blend of fantasy and sci-fi, detailing a dystopian future Earth with a rigid caste system alongside a parallel traditional-ish fantasy world.



Hugely powerful entertainment studios train individuals to pass as inhabitants of "Overworld" - a parallel world discovered years previously. They're taught the languages, the history, the traditions... and they're trained how to kick ass, be it with magic or weapon. Once they're ready, they become "Actors". They get sent to Overworld on "adventures", implanted in such a way that they can provide first-person feedback of their experiences and thoughts back to their audiences on Earth. A lot of them are eventually killed but that's part of being a highly (or not so highly) paid entertainer: and it always pays off in the ratings. Unaware as it is of Earth's existence, Overworld is basically treated as a giant sandbox to generate entertainment and profit.



I haven't remotely done the setting justice with the above description. Suffice to say, it's awesome and "Heroes Die" remains one of the greatest fantasy novels I've ever read.



Oh, and bump.

I think if Bioware could obtain the Vampire the Masquerade license they could create a good followup to Bloodlines.

Elysium Nebula. Although it is a free online campaign setting and not a published product it is great combination of fantasy and science fiction.

Cthulhutech. A very dark setting. Using the works of H. P. Lovecraft as the base the creators added elements inspired by many of the more gritty anime (ghost in the shell, evangelion, and guyver to name a few). Cthulutech is a publeshed setting with its own unique rules. The additional books that they have put out so far have filled in background that some settings gloss over.

I like that Dr. Who idea. It would be cool if it was open world (or worlds) and visit same loactions in different time periods. And there are your main quests usually pertaining to the Daleks and Cybermen and the Master ( and loosely covering series 1-4) and you have your side quests and you can do what ever you want in the world.

BioWare needs to make an RPG / Shooter ala Deus Ex in the Perfect Dark universe.
