Uh Oh Atari

Post by Electryc »

Hasbro (Wizards of the Coast) wants to terminate Atari from it's DnD license. :eek:

Who would be a good replacement?

I doubt Bioware would give a rats ass about taking it back since they have their Dragon Age.

It's a convenient way for WotC to get rid of outstanding 3.X licenses I would imagine. As for a replacement: I found myself pleasantly enamoured by the style of Heroes of Might and Magic V. Perhaps it's time for D&D to go to Moscow?

By the way, are we talking publisher or developer here?

It's going to be "lawyers" until that litigation gets resolved some years from now. The D&D digital license just got shelved. Not that anything interesting was in the pipeline anyway, just another MMO.

Curse your ilk, Mulu.
People talk of bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to the beasts; a beast can never be so cruel as man, so artistically cruel.

Rockstar North. I demand to screech to a halt on my wyvern steed and smack the shizzle out of a nymph for not paying her troll his dues.
