EA? More like EGAY, amirite?

[rusty_shackleford]

Most promising is Swordhaven, easy. It's already a significantly better game than most of the others.

Cautiously optimistic it will cause a studio to shutdown award goes to Greedfall 2.

[rusty_shackleford]

Will probably be good:
Archaelund, Monomyth
There's still hope:
New Arc Line, Corsairs Legacy

I wish it was going to be good but I know it's going to be ****:
Banquet for Fools, Urban Strife

Very tiny hope I am afraid

I feel the same way as rusty with Swordhaven being most promising and Greedfall 2 being... less, than cautiously optimistic, for me. Unfortunatly so too because I played the first one after seeing Oyster speak highly of it and, if it will suck, it will be a great loss, was looking forward to more games like it
Another I am getting to be cautiously optimistic about would be A Banquet for Fools . Seemed great when I played, but people here with experience with the developers warned me about it, so it will be a great shame if that one will suck too.

All in all though, after Baldur's Gate 3, I would say I am cautiously optimistic about everything except for Lair of the Leviathan viewtopic.php?t=2396-lair-of-the-leviat ... leviathan , though it is not an EA.

BoF, watch out; they don't have a great track record. So far, they have always underdelivered for various reasons.

Might tidy it up for some real feedback of interest is here

Greedfall was pretty good, in my humble opinion, some heavy handed politics at times, but overall, a solid 7/10.

2nd one looks like they're double-dipping on woke. Shame.

[Roderick]

Thought the tittle was about the publisher.

[Roderick]

Swordhaven without a doubt when I complete ATOM RPG ill get around to it.

LMAO
Me too. I wanted to post the "Be Gay Sports. It's being gay!" video but settled on a simpler "amirite" joke.
I'm like freaking Mr. Magoo, stumbling into being on topic.

I'd add Stellar Tactics and The Darkness Below to the list.

Added. Stellar Tactics sure looks interesting, but I checked out about 4 years ago.
