No, I am sure they have great news: after realizing that they need more manpower, they acquired the services of Paul Neurath (most recently of Underworld Ascendant fame), Richard Garriott (Shroud of the Avatar), Chris Roberts (Scam Citizen), Tim Cain (Outer Turds), those SSI guys whose project couldn't even get Kickstarted, the spirit of Warren Spector, and Avellone will consult to write the letter they write to better business bureau once it all flops.
You forgot Brenda Romero. But that's alright, the whole world did.

It is either going to be the greatest game ever made or the worst shit one ever has played in his life. There is no other option.
Worse than underwolrd ascendant ? No way, competition is far too serious now.

This is weird. There's no announcement that the game is now called The Wayward Realms. They just quietly slipped it into the title of their lore video.

Actually wtf, it looks like some people have known since at least January 23rd:



Decline of Makabb for not paying attention. Oops.

So they have now 2 music composers.... Eric Heberling and this guy,, they did what ?? Can't wait for the full OST for this thing, mind blown.

The Once Lost games logo is Erics music and the Wayward realms outro is Ramons music

Supposedly the text on the concept art scroll is not gibberish but they have created a full new language based on sanskrit, lol.

The new video is good, because it shows they haven't abandoned the project, and that they are thinking deeply.
It's also bad, because it shows reticence to come up with ideas if they resemble TES in any way (huge mistake -- just make the game, and TES be damned).

It will resemble TES, but Arena and Daggerfall..... they made those two, so ofcourse it will resemble them.

tim cain and leonard made the outer worlds but it doesn't resemble any of their previous works. if there are even any resemblances, it is only at the very surface level. i now take these "veteran devs revival" project with huge bag of salt.

taim cain and leonard are 2 guys in a team of how many in Obsidian that worked on Outer worlds ? (how many SJW wahmyn worked on Outer Worlds?)

Once Lost Games is 4 guys that worked on Daggerfall out of 5 total.

We may not have a ton of information but the logo itself has brought me more joy than some of the games I've played 100+ hours.
