Derek Smart and Freespace 3? [Jul 15, 2004, 7:33 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A speculative
question from 3000 AD's Derek Smart on the Adrenaline Vault Forums (thanks
Rake) polls interest in him acquiring the rights to Freespace 3, making the
following statements in a pair of posts:
....Derek Smart, yeah, that would be me, got the license from my friends at Interplay (a publisher I had very good experiences with); would you buy Freespace 3 if I made it?
Discuss. Rave. Rant. Argue. But this is something I am seriously considering, given that it looks like Interplay has started off loading properties (starting with Fallout3). I mean, just think. Would you rather see this legacy license fall into the wrong hands?
...
I have already contacted my Interplay contact about it btw.
Feh @ me...I must be crazy, but...
In all fairness, I did just read through the first half of the AVF thread and Derek has been fairly courteous with the members, much more so than the members have been in return.
Between no Freespace 2 sequel and a DS Freespace 2 sequel, I would rather see what DS might come up with. I have some obvious concerns over his previous games in comparison to how I hold the Freespace franchise, but what the hell? It is not like some "big" developers have not managed to botch a much-loved series.
Obviously, meaning no direct disrespect to DS, I wish that Volition still had a passion and substantial financial gain for making more Freespace games.
Shrugging,
Ray
