    This is going to be so awesome, based on what I see in the demo.

    Great news Ted, guess Easter did bring something good with it after all.

    I'm amazed at your perseverance (and apparent lack of serious mental illness) as a modder. Cheers.

    Just about finished the demo. This is what the original should have been: an actual plot arc, genuine good/evil/neutral options, choices with consequences, etc. This must have been an incredible labor of love. The number of mods of this quality that are actually completed can be counted on one hand. I'm assuming, based on how long this project has been progressing and the fact that the author(s) actually check in occasionally, that this is in the final stretches? I am practically sitting on my hands in anticipation. I would pay 20 bucks for the full version in a heartbeat, and that only because I'm poor...it deserves more.

    I haven't really been around for a while. Looks like there's still a bit of plugging away on this one. I applaud Ted's ability to keep working on this after so many years.

    Is there still a serious intention of releasing a final product one day, or has a realization set in that the project is simply too big for one guy to ever realistically pull that off? Either way, looks like it's been a valiant effort.

    Would 2015ish be a reasonable timeframe to check back on this?

    Ted hasn't checked in here in weeks, and I hate dangling thread inquiries, so I'll make a statement.

    The answer is I have no idea. Looking back in this thread, I did find this series of posts kind of humorous though:

    So I guess look for it in 2009. :p

    Well, he checked in February and again in May. Which, in modder time, is actually fairly frequent. Both times he reported progress. My guess is he is working piecemeal, bits and pieces where he can in-between RL responsibilities and whatever other hobbies and joys he has. Having said that, it would be nice just to see him check in, even just to say "hey, I haven't done shit since the last update". Us nerds tend to be information-starved.

    I haven't heard anything from Ted in quite a while. I did look at his wife's blog recently to make sure he's still alive and he is. That's all I know.
