					| I've always liked his original 2D graphics more than his isometric stuff. Cutting back from 6 to 4 party members also bothered me. I'm more of the 6 party traditional kind of guy.
 and it's obvious why he dumbed it down. Coming for iPad!
 another developer I've lost all respect for.

 Yeah, I always preferred the graphical style of the Exile series to Avernum/Geneforge. The graphics were always very colorful, and had something cool about them.

					| Tried the demo. Pretty bland all-round. Will probably give it one more shot, when I'm not so tired.

					| Well, I gave the demo a try but can safely confirm what Casus said - bland and uninteresting.
