What does any of this matter when none of you are going to play this title anyway? Risen sucked...badly. No one has any interest in seeing a sequel of more, or possibly even greater suckage.
I'm interested in a sequel, especially if it's not all dungeons, knights, and just one big island or isolated area. Risen wasn't as good as Gothic 1 & 2, but it was still a fun title. I'd rate this higher than both Dragon Age titles.
Guys, really, there aren't too many genuine pc titles around anymore, and this situation won't get better by hating the few remaining develoopers who at least care a bit about us pc gamers. You don't have to love every game that gets published for pc, but don't bite all the hands that still feed you.
Again: Risen was no Gothic 1/2, but it was still a good rpg. Compare it to Dragon Age 2 and tell me which one you like better.
If what I read is true, the Risen developers got the rights to do another Gothic game back. Let's see what they can achieve with it.
