evil al - i think some companies have a deep motivation to create good games as well as make money - eg rare, sega, nintendo. that's why i hate sony; look at the gates for ps2 - many are formulaic rubbish - constant re-hash and re-hash of the same old stuff (prime example - EA). all companies are out to make money but i think you can tell the ones who actually care about what they produce outside of the financial aspect alone. i'd be surprised if the people who made baldurs don't love d&d and videogames - it seems to be crafted out of genuine interest in these things. i think there's an ocean of difference between certain developers and they're far from the same.
