<p><strong>What can you say about Alpha Protocol sales volume? Do you think of making a sequel? </strong><br />Haven't gotten any sales figures, and I don't know if I care all that much compared to getting critiques, which are more important. Sequel - I'd do one, although I'd prefer to be on the start of the game this time rather than come in in the middle.<br /><strong><br />When Dungeon Siege 3 development was started? Please, tell about your role in development of the game.</strong><br />I am not involved with Dungeon Siege III except in a Creative Director capacity (looking at documents, discussing a few story elements, going to build critiques), although we've been working on it for some time before its announcement at E3.</p>

Sales gotta be pretty bad if he doesn't even want to talk about it.

As the publisher already gave a definite "No" as answer to the question whether there would be a sequel, it's a given that sales were bad. Plus, it's not worth asking the "sequel" question.

Doesn't mean much. Depends on who own the IP. If Obsidian does and they want to make another then they can get someone else to fund or publish a sequel.

At least Obsidian get what they deserve this time.
You can't just make unredeemable shit all the time unless you are EA or Activision.

Now I just hope their Fallout rape will tank just as badly.
