Message: [QUOTE="Waffles, post: 290837, member: 703"] I agree completely. But I'd really like to know what the selling pitch that brought Warren Spector on board was, then -- the only thing I was able to extract without reading Romero's work directly was that he was offered to make "the game of his dreams" and promised both his own offices and no oversight. I have also often wondered why they went with the Unreal Engine when Ion Storm had already sold the farm with the Quake II engine, and how they had managed to convince Eidos to dump all the extra cash for it at a time when they had already lost $45 million just pumping money into the studio in order for it to deliver something, anything. It absolutely was the right choice and proof that Spector had learned beautifully from his time at Looking Glass Studios, but it all sounded like a clear example of "design is king" to me. Meh... It's giving me a nerdy headache just thinking about it XD [/QUOTE]
