Any guesses? https://twitter.com/pdxinteractive/status/1630252004043005953?s=46&t=BK-HTzUq2PVop31QYqmYGg I guess I wouldn’t expect any new PDS game announcements. Probably EU/CK expansions at least, though. Edit: never mind! The press release confirms the new games are from HBS, Colossal Order and Paradox Tectonic. Can’t wait to see what HBS has been up to and see whatever Cities 2 will be. Anno fucked around with this message at 18:18 on Feb 27, 2023 |

Oh my God, I feel like I've been waiting forever for the new HBS game (but it's somehow only been a couple years). I'm still hoping for Battletech 2 but I'm assuming it'll be something new.

I kind of hope that one of the reasons it’s “presented by Xbox” is because it’ll be a new Battletech (or I guess Shadowrun?).

HBS has been rumored to be working on Vampire Bloodlines 2. Maybe it's that.

EU5 seems most likely to me. Oldest game. Meltiest, soggiest, most in need of a revamp game. Outside options are HOI and Stellaris but neither seem halfway as likely. If we're talking entire new gamelines, maybe some sort of fantasy thing? That's what they've not got. Unless they want to cover the Bronze Age, or Late Antiquity, or the Cold War. Which I really doubt they do.

As I recall, Paradox Tectonic is the studio run by a former Linden Lab CEO. I hope they haven't been making Paradox Metaverse With Innovative Totally New Blockchain Technology™.

On the website for the program it says HBS is going to “bring storytelling home”. Idk what that means but I’m going to guess it means it’ll be a Paradox IP, which would probably mean World of Darkness?

Battletech RPG could be sick. HBS is based in Seattle IIRC and obviously has experience converting tabletop settings to games, so getting them to help with Vampire 2 would make sense, but they would need another studio to help with the technical aspects of a AAA 3D open world game. Two things I will groan at (but still hold out hope for if they're the case): - Tie-in with a big external license (Star Wars, Marvel, etc) - Live service online component HBS approaches projects in a kooky way (selling the Shadowrun games as player creation studios first and RPGs second, launching the Battletech kickstarter as a skirmishes-only multiplayer focused wargame with single player content as a stretch goal) so I'm expecting the unexpected. If it isn't going to be Shadowrun or Battletech-related I'm hoping for something completely original or at least a license that's somewhat in their wheelhouse (maybe they can get some of that Cyberpunk money?)

For context, "Storyteller" is what White Wolf (and therefore the World of Darkness RPGs) use as their term for Game Master (E: and as the overarching name for their system of all-d10s-all-the-time). "Bring storytelling home" implying a WoD game seems like a safe bet. Alternatively, they're outright buying Onyx Path and we're getting the off-brand X-Men tactics game that Trinity was always meant to deliver.Enjoy posted:Taking advantage of the recent Wizards of the Coast OGL shakeup to announce a high fantasy pen and paper roleplaying setting with integrated virtual tabletop support?

Putting aside the fact that there won't be new PDS games announced, if they were to announce EU5 it would be at a bigger venue like PDXCON, not this. The pie-in-the-sky dream here is pulling Imperator from retirement and announcing new DLC for it.

EU, CK and Surviving the Aftermath I think are 100% confirmed to get expansions. 4th one idk but I’d be surprise if it was for Victoria with where they are in the patch cycle.
