D.W. Bradley had no input into Wiz8. He won't have any input into Wiz9 either as he works for a totally different company.

Also, while we were waiting for Wiz8 to be published one of the programmers told us that Wiz9 was already being worked on and the beginnings of the story for Wiz10 were already being developed. I am not sure how much of Wiz9 was done at the time that the people at Sir-Tech went on to other jobs but programming had been started.

I have high hopes to see Wizardry 9. [img]smile.gif[/img] And I will be fine with waiting another decade to see it (though I would prefer not to wait so long). I have great respect for a team of artists that work so hard to stay together. And while much was missing from Wiz8 (not as many puzzles as Wiz7 and a few unfinished storylines because of time constraints), I will be preordering Wiz9 as soon as Sir-Tech makes such an option possible at my local retailer. Wizardry 8 is a great game. It must be as it hasn't been off of my HD since I got it and while I have only finished 2 teams (one party of 6 played on normal and one party of 5 on Ironman also on normal), I have played countless parties nearly halfway. And will play many more, I am sure. Some of them I may actually finish with. [img]graemlins/laugh2.gif[/img]
