I never thought I'd say this before, especially after the Diablo III debacle, but...it's a really good time to be a PC gamer. I mean, REALLY good. Maybe even 1998 good.
First, we have BG:EE. Then Black Isle Studios reopens. Then Obsidion Entertianment announces Project Eternity, a new, isometric, party-based CRPG. Is it just me, or are we experiencing a renaissance?
What's also exciting to me is the way these projects are being pulled off by small developers through Kickstarter campaigns and fan volunteerism. Is the age of the gaming megacorp (i.e. Blizzard) on its way out? If so, what's on the horizon?
