Curious Artila GG l'Avernite Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 Don't you think that a "Nethergat 2", with improved interface and graphics, would be fun ? I only played the demo, but having 2 storylines, and 2 different sort of people seems to be a very good idea. I think i won't buy Nethergate (25 $ is 25 $, and for quite an old game ; I bought Av3, and maybe I will buy Geneforge). But when there will be a nethergate 2 (in the year 2027), I'll buy it !!! PS : why not creating a different sort of magery for the Romans ? (in the year 2027 too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Schrodinger Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 A lot was well done with this game, and some stuff needed some work. It's kind of unlikely that there will be a Nethergate 2, merely because the game's ending kind of precludes any sequel. I might be remade, although I'm not sure what to think about that. Oh yes, and if you buy A3, you can get Nethergate for $15, if you purchase both simultaneously! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila GG l'Avernite Posted October 26, 2002 Author Share Posted October 26, 2002 Isn't it possible to buy it for 15 $ if I ALLREADY bought Av3 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Bullard Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 I dought it, but if you buy Geneforge you could probably get a discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Sniper Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 You can get a discount on Boe and Nethergate CD's if you buy Avernum 3 or Geneforge. I don't know about any others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk NaCN Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I think a Nethergate 2 set during the Fomorian War would work. You could be the Celts again and drive out the Fomorians. Nethergate had a certain atmosphere about it which I never saw in any other spiderweb game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan The Darkest of the Dark Wyrm Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I say no. NETHERGATE IS A GOOD GAME AND MAKING A SEQUEL WOULD PROBABLY JUST MAKE IT LOOK LIKE SOME BRAINLESS "PAIN IN THE ASS VII - THE RETURN" HACK/SHOOT 'EM ALL GAME. I like Nethergate most of all Spidweb Games. Or Geneforge. Or the Exile/Avernum series. Or whatever. But I also don't like the Idea of a Gf2, and I also wouldn't have had an E2 (though E2/3 are good!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Rantallion Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 If it was going to be done, it would have to be in the 5th century after the ROmans leave and the Saxons arrive. However, the problem is that this is the period the historical Arthur lived if he existed at all, and Nethergate 2 as some Arthurian piece of crud is not something I want to see.

(in the year 2027 too) It shouldn't be created, because Romans valued physical combat skills a lot. Giving them druidism would be just wrong.

Well-Actually War Trall Sniper Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Some Romans were good with Druidic skills, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read The Mists of Avalon. It is possible to create a good Arthur-based storyline, even if it is overused. -E- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Miriam Posted November 1, 2002 Share Posted November 1, 2002 Romans should not be able to use Druidic skills. The whole reason for having two different storylines is that the two teams are completely different. If the Romans had this skill they would be at an obvious advantage.

Well-Actually War Trall Andraste Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 I think it would be neat if there was a sequel. It can take place after the magic left and the Celts (your party) went through the gate. It dosen't seem fair that your magic leaves and you can't go with the faries.

Kyshakk Koan Lord Sylak Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 No. It won't happen. I belive Nethergate was just a test for the programing engene though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you even bother to read the beginning characters for the Romans? It says that on of them has picked up a few druidic skills. Probably a spy or something. Who knows? Only Jeff and the makers.
