This game really should come out, it might be a crappy game, but it would push the boundaries of what western society accepts. It's fine to watch someone disemboweled, but forget seeing a nipple!
I might try it out if I get bored then.. I loved KOTOR but I still hate that they made it an MMO. Still, it might be good, and for free I can bother to try it (perhaps).
Far Cry 2 was an abomination to the name. I sincerely hope 3 lives up to it's pedigree. I'm not sure how large a part this guy played in that being creative director; but it's a wait and see thing.
The whole gather gather gather aspect turned me off to this game. I'll pick it up again someday, but after playing through 1 and 2 in a marathon and jumping into 3, I was disappointed.
I am hesitantly looking forward to this game anyway, it LOOKS great, but FC2 did as well. I simply don't trust Ubisoft to do this franchise justice after #2. However I really WANT them to do this well, as I really miss the setting of the first Far Cry (Crytek).
It doesn't make sense to leave a company which would clearly let you take a leave of absence after having that much seniority and pull. He isn't ill enough to leave the industry if he's coming back as a solo developer. Best wishes, regardless.
