Obsidian’s take on theDungeon Siegeseries,Dungeon Siege 3, has gotten itself a teasing cinematic trailer, which you can watch right now if you so desire. Go on, treat yourself. You deserve it. Or something.
It looks cool, but to me the best part of the video is how it starts with “From the makers ofFallout: New Vegas,” which hasn’t even been released yet. Aren’t you typically supposed to boast about your past games once they’ve received critical acclaim and massive sales? Or at least wait until they actuallybecomepast games instead of future ones?
Still, I can’t blame them for using a game that hasn’t even launched yet. Obsidian knows as well as I do that “From the makers ofAlpha Protocol” just wouldn’t sound very good. Obsidian knows what that game is. Obsidian always knew.
Fortunately, the two screenshots that just recently launched alongside the trailer already make this game look more polished than Obsidian’s last release. Hopefully there won’t be any rushed deadlines or corporate stickybeaking like there was withAlpha, and we’ll have a really good game on our hands. Joking aside, I really do hope this is good.
