Well.

Because Sony is fine with that?

Two Worlds? Really, we're going there? I give you The Witcher, but it doesn't half the required customization I seek. Elder Scrolls is completely different, being PC/mod oriented. That leaves us with.. Kingdoms of Amalur and Dragon Age. I guess.

Err, what? It's a good game in an often neglected genre with an interesting focus on more traditional mythology than the usual fantasy settings.

Well, there's the fact that they cancelled Bulletstorm 2 to put People Can Fly on a Gears of War spinoff. So if you're looking for something negative, there you go.

Inability to put out an above average game? Amalur was above average, definitely. And it sold well, too. Just not enough to help with the looming loan situation (a requirement which absurd for a game in Amalur's situation)

On the plus side, it's good that they've been taken in.

Was pretty sure this would be. Good to have confirmation though!

Well, it is a trilogy. Mirror of Fate :p

Yeah, Amnesia isn't really the Japanese method of horror, but Silent Hill is.

So it was, it seems. I stand corrected.

Part of that is the west just can't do the Japanese method of horror like the Japanese can, though. Shattered Memories at least tried to be unique.

Yeah, Looking back, that WAS a little daft on my part, sorry. I blame my weird way of typing/thinking that can sometimes.. be daft, basically.

I'm going to hope the 3D is limited to the occasional boss battle, or story sequence.

Even though they say they pulled the combat from LoS, I'm not 100% certain that comment should be taken at face value. LoS combat in 2D wouldn't exactly work, as-is.

I'd rather have that too.

I'm not trying to be a know it all. I asked one. Single. Question. Because I don't know who you are. I don't know what your knowledge with the main series is. And apparently because I don't know you or your knowledge you're lashing out at me because I misunderstood what you were referring to.

So is Circle of the Moon not a metroidvania, then? Because that wasn't by IGA either.

I'm not a smart ass.

"Mirror of Fate is much more adventure-oriented, featuring a massive, nonlinear castle and plentiful exploration elements."
