Have you already heard about it?

If it wasn't so sad I would laugh my a** off...

I think DNF was announced the week before I started working first time in a game company. So this game has followed me through my whole career!

They should have used Irrlicht *bigevilgrin* :-)

man i hope all the ex-employees can spill the beans now... they're probably still bound by NDAs though so we probably won't hear a peep but I'm sure everyone would love to know why it never saw the light of day!

This is TRULY a sad day in gaming history.

JP, not sure if this is legit

Really sad.

I can't even believe it. Maybe some other studio will takeover 3drealms and finish the project. Let's hope for the best

That literally can't be legit... I would have thought if those guys threatened to kill him he'd think twice about posting about it on the internet as they wouldn't take kindly to it!

Yeah, but up until that part, it all made sense.
