Comment on The Expanse: Osiris Reborn - Something is Coming... - GameSpace.com

Owlcat has worked on Pathfinder and Warhammer 40k lately, and fans of those properties seem to be fond of Owlcat’s work on those CRPGs. I’m playing Pathfinder: Kingmaker now, and it’s quality stuff, but I don’t have any existing familiarity with Pathfinder. I expect they’re doing an Expanse game because A) they believe they can make “the next Mass Effect” now that they’ve got smaller projects under their belt, and B) they’re probably fans of The Expanse.
Interesting that they would bother making the game with that perspective on the financial side, but we can agree to disagree.
I’ll maintain cautious optimism but the video game industry has definitely let me down plenty of times, and companies have ruined their reputation for a mere pittance - does not mean anyone will do it on purpose, just that making video games is difficult.

Pathfinder is awesome.

Yeah, the 3.5-based systems seem to all have a lot of the same quirks, but I’m having a good time.
