    [​IMG] Could someone please tell me if there will be a specific forum created for Black Ile's upcoming game: "Lionheart". Seeing as how it is "very closely related to the baldur's gate and icewind dale series"(pc gamer) I think a forum should be made for the game. Perhaps even before the game comes out like ToEE!

    I'm pretty sure it has to be D&D oriented to be covered on SP. So in short, no.

    [​IMG] Same as with KoToR: "There won't. There are enough D&D titles around for SP to remain dedicated to that entirely. Sorry."

    Anyway, apart from looking vaguely the same, Lionheart is as much related to BG & IWD as a monkey to a banana. Just because seeing one makes you think of the other doesn't mean they're related.

    If you ask me, it looks like the graphics/setup will be slightly similar to BGII/IWD, but it lacks everything else. Seems likely to be worse than IWDII and wouldnt even be worthy of a forum. If you look at the screenshots and story.. you wont even be fighting humans the whole time. Yes, maybe medival fantasy with a dragon here or there... but it looks a bit rediculous. Certainly i think it could have been more historically based on enemies etc. rather than trying to make it look like their classic BGII/IWD scenerio. They seem to clutch onto the past rather than take a deep look into the future.

    I can only say one thing, I totally agree with Jesper, not that it's ever going to happen though :(

    :yot:

    Anyway as I see it you can compare Lionheart with Arcanum which would be a good thing IMO. Hey it's made by blackisle so it can't be that bad.
