Seasoned Roamer rivka Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I don't want to seem greedy, but is there a sequel for the Bahs/exodus duology? I REALLY wanna find out about those vahanatai pillars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Niemand Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 There is unfortuantely not, and Kelandon, the author, says that he will not be making it, for a variety of reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Celtic Minstrel Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Unrelated question: Bahssikava is named in one of the Avernum games, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Avernum 1 when it remade Exile 1 added that as an extra area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Callie Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Bahssikava and Exodus placed a tremendous demand on scripting. The process of making them consumed a lot of Kelandon's time. As said, there are also several other reasons for the lack of a sequel.

Understated Ur-Drakon Sudanna Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 It's kind of a pity, though. They're good scenarios. We might see a sequel in the distant future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Nioca Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Don't bet on it. If Kelandon was going start designing again, that'd probably be the one thing he wouldn't touch with a 50-foot pole. Seeing how Exodus was (undeservedly) panned by major portions of the Blades community, the last thing he'd want to do is invite open season on himself for a second time. There was some conversation on the subject in the Blades chat last December; take a look (But watch out for vulgar language, as these things aren't moderated).

Burgeoning Battle Gamma Grail Shadowblade Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Damned shame, although maybe another designer will do a "fan" sequel sometime in the future. They were really enjoyable scenarios... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 At some point, I suggested that I should make an Echoes scenario and TM should make a Slith Homeland scenario. I still think he should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasoned Roamer rivka Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 Awww. I really don't get why Exodus would be panned. My second fave (right after bahssikava!) Oh,well. If Kelandon's still about, maybe he could post spoilers for what the sequel would have been? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Nioca Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Again, read the chat that I posted above. Near the end, there's some discussion on Homeland (what would have been #3). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Do you really think there could be a substantial TM scenario without the rakshasi featuring prominently in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Jeran Korak Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Exodus on first play-through (god party) blew me away, it was the best thing since sliced bread, you just could not pull yourself away from the keyboard lest you miss what happens next. On second playthrough things become slightly tirsome. My 42 was my last. I'm serious! I do want a sequal, but with more Bahz and less Exodus in it.

Understated Ur-Drakon Callie Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I don't think we should prod Kelandon into making a sequel, we're lucky he updates the library in the HLPM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understated Ur-Drakon Callie Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 I would say no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody The Lurker Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Seriously, people. NTH has no Rakshasi, Corporeus has no Rakshasi, Echoes : Assault has no rakshasi... The only two TM scenarios where the rakshasi really play a major role are Bandits 2, and arguably Echoes : Renegade (and even then, there aren't exactly many of them). In Mad Ambition, Sabertooth is the only rakshasa that appears in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Xaiya Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 You know, maybe Kelandon could redo Exodush. He could remove/fix things people didn't like. He is a great designer, after all. But that is all up to Kelandon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 If I could once and for all get rid of the two or three Unhandled Exceptions that semi-regularly occur, I'd be very happy. Unfortunately, this requires access to BoA-Windows, and I don't have that at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah Kel, I'm satisfied with what we currently have. You don't need update if you don't want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
