It can only get better! (?) - Morvak - 07-13-2007

Now that Frictional Games has this game under their belt and received such positive response on it, and will have 2 more episodes, do you think that the next 2 games will only get better? In terms of Frictional Games enhancing the game engine perhaps, enhancing graphics, introducing more objects to be used in the environment, different puzzles, new enemies, etc.

I like to think that the next 2 episodes will only continue to get better from graphics to physics.

What does everyone think?

I hope so, at least if they stick to Xp compatible gamesTongue

Yeah, it's getting better with graphics and physics. Smile
And let's hope that they stick in XP compatible games! Wink

let's hope they keep this linux compatible. we need it more. so many things are designed for windows, and not linux.

I think that it's absolutely sure that they stick in Linux compatible. Smile

Physics; probably not.
Graphics; possibly. Though I doubt they'll do too much with making the engine better.
Puzzles obviously, and I hope they have more of them. I can only think of about 3-5 things in overture that were actual puzzles =[

For enemies; I think it's safe to say that Overture will eventually use the monster-man from the tech demo that never made it. For some reason, the team refuses to let me use that model ='[
Won't say why though.

being it's European, I'm sure they will more so. Was it started by Linus in Denmark or close by? or far from Denmark? Norway?
To be fair, I think most/all software should be for windows, linux and mac (and whatever else may be out there).

You mean the "creator" of linux kernel? Linus Torvalds? He's a Finn. Check@wikipedia if you want to know more.
