Is TORN really canceled? - Page 2

M&M9 is supposed to out in 4th quarter 2001. Don't necessarily mean it will be, though. I agree about Multiplay Daggerfall. I could have worked!

Not that I have ever done any multiplayer stuff. I should think it would be tricky all getting on-line at the same time - and what if you want to keep playing when everone else has gone to bed?

Then you can kill them while they sleep at an inn, or maybe NPC heroes could be created that accepted quests and fought with and journied with the PC heroes, also, it would have been cool if it was possible to complete a quest before another completed it, so it would be a race to see who was first, and then, if the other band of heroes were the first there, the second ones could ambush them as they left the dungeon/evil stronghold, it would make for a great game in my opinion.

Well Arcanum looks to be a decent game, but TORN was going to be the one that could challenge NWN IMHO.. I do hope it will be released...

I doubt it will be released, it's official in the News section of the Torn part of the BI site, maybe they will resume it at a later time with large changes, but otherwise, no, I don't think it will be released, and I think Arcanum will be better than NWN by far.

I hope Arcanum is as good as you say it will be. A little competition goes a long way in the videogame industry. I haven't checked out Arcanum yet Neb, but I plan on doing so!

Grrr... so it is cancelled! Dang I was looking forward to this game after a single day of reading about it. Hopefully one day they'll revive it. I wonder why they cancelled it?
