Yay! Planescape Torment's spiritual sequel is being worked on.
It won't involve the D&D Planescape universe but it will be set in a 'similar' sort of setting, Numenera, apparently a Kickstarter success itself. The name 'Torment' is apparently no longer under trademark as well, so it's likely they'll be grabbing 'Torment' as part of the spiritual sequel's name. It will involve a healthy number of people who worked on the original Torment.

Date: 2013-01-10 04:43 am (UTC)Why is this game being called a sequel, when it's a different setting, different characters, and different engine? That's like saying "Mirror Mask is a Labyrinth sequel", or "Brave is a Toy Story sequel."
