The Fall(out3) drama continues! According to this thread, Silver Style, a company that knowns the value of hype, somehow hired or acquired services of Jeff Husges, formerly of Black Isle. Jeff is known for such critically acclaimed hits as the IWD series, BG2:Throne of Bhaal, Lionheart, and, of course, the two mothers of all games, BG3 and FO3.

We're glad to welcome Game Designer Jeff Husges! He worked at Black Isle on Fallout 3 and Baldur's Gate 3 formerly. He starts working on "The Fall - Last Days of Gaia" from today on.

Tell you what, if Carsten is as good at making games as he is at hyping and publicity, then the Fall is going to be one hell of a game :)

Lmao, Carsten is a retard, and I'd really love to play a game done by the same guy who worked on IWD and Lionheart.

Edit: And ToB Eeek Oh God...

I wonder how happy I-play is when Carsten is marketing his game stating that he has people aboard that worked on some of their IP's. Van Buren & Jeffersson wasn't even officially announced as those games for crying out loud...

doesn't matter what iply thinks. carsten is simply making a newspost based on the facts at hand... even if iply wants to wave their hands and say *poof* there is no FO3, there is no FO3. sitting right next to the spoon, IMO.

I like it how canned projects are now worthy of mention when refering to what someone worked on.

As we all know, untested, unplayed, unproven games are the pinnacle of the gaming industry's finest.

He was a designer on two games that never came out, and before that he worked in QA? The irony.
