Deus Ex and Thief Plans

A Rob Dyer Q&A on 1UP from earlier in the week (thanks Eurogamer.net) has word from the former Eidos president (who recently joined Crave as president and COO) on future plans for both the Thief series and the Deus Ex series:
We're going to try to get more of a consumer focus into our games. Deus Ex: Invisible War was a good game with solid reviews, but not enough people bought it. We'll fix that in the future. There definitely will be a Deus Ex 3. People want another Thief, too. We'll make that series more modern, though...the medieval thing's run its course. The coming year will bring some really new, innovative titles, plus comebacks from many brands gamers are already familiar with.

Talk about everything wrong with the gaming market and a symbol the generally idiotic management at some companies. Oh well, at least they realize that T3, IW, and H:C did not have obvious, blatant issues. Thankfully, they will "fix" me so I will buy more of the games.

Basically, expect this to be company by the numbers (take W license, spend only X developing it, definitely spend Y marketing it, and get Z percentage to buy it regardless.)

Not going to say much else; disgusted,
