GGTL says: "Massively multiplayer online games are a dime a dozen these days. As exciting as a game may seem, it's incredibly tough for us to get excited about the next up and coming MMO. You could probably blame it on the genre's inability to expand beyond what it knows, refusing to evolve in ways that we're seeing in contemporary games. However, there are some titles out there that are trying new systems and taking risks to reinvigorate the genre; Neverwinter is one of them."
Cryptic Studios appears to be the latest Embracer-owned company to be impacted by layoffs.
"Cryptic Studios and Gearbox Publishing are today very happy and excited to announce that "Neverwinter: Menzoberranzan" (Neverwinter’s 25th module) is now available for PC (via Steam), Xbox (via the Microsoft, and Playstation via digital stores (as announced at Wizards of the Coast’s Dungeons & Dragons Direct 2023 showcase)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
It's for that online game, correct? I always wanted to see the drows home from Drizzt's books, I've read those years ago, but I never could fully imagine it from text alone. Looks a bit bright compared to what I remember how it was described, but I'm guessing that's for gameplay reasons.
