To this?

What the fuck happened to Arkane?

I doubt they're going to revisit the Arx Fatalis setting. Dishonored's a good setting, wish the second game didn't have so many technical issues.

They went from making a shitty Ultima Underworld knockoff to making a shitty Thief knockoff to making a shitty System Shock knockoff, it's what they do.

Did you purposefully skip Dark Messiah?

>>380586852

Do you know who Arkane is? They are the original developers of all the games you said they are ripping off.

buggy mess to this

Some of the devs, not all you clod.

What are some games with underground settings/worlds?

I loved Arx Fatalis' setting more than any other. A bigger game with more polish with the same ideas of different creatures living in different depths is super cool.

Not even. They have a couple of nobodies who worked QA and and localization on a few Looking Glass games but the actual devs mostly got absorbed by Valve, Bethesda, and Microsoft.

>>380586531
3 step suicide:
- Original creators/devs/etc are no more or are minority
- Slaves of Bethesda aka take it in the ass for money
- SJW tier pressure that scares the nu male when it comes to not bending their assess once more

PS: Dark Messiah was a good game. God knows how it wasn't influenced by the trinity mentioned above.

One of the few games I'm looking forward to learning more about from this years E3

Arx Fatalis was released before Dark Messiah.

>their games turned to shit as soon as they were acquired by Bethesda
What a coincidence!

Metro, not an RPG though
Underworld Ascendant, can't vouch for quality is miles away from release
Ultima Underworld, it's the game that Arx Fatalis is a spiritual successor to
Dark Messiah Might and Magic started life as Arx Fatalis 2

That's about it.

That's okay, I half expected a new Arx game would be announced at E3, I was really dreading how cucked and simple it would be, the original Arx really had something, but it was something that literally no-one else could see, and I just don't get how others couldn't see what I could see, some day, I will finish it and you will all see what I could see in Arx Fatalis.

So they went from a great game to a great game?
