So as I suspected project D is not the sequel as I originally thought it would be. Guess project E is the 'Divinity 3' that continues the Divinity story - I assume it will be set around the Divine going after Damien and his remaining troops.

As for D, well I know it will feature the dragon thing from Divinity 2 but I can't wait to see what this new genre is. I think it could be some sort of 3D RTS / 3rd person arcade hybrid set in the Divinity universe but not necessarily in the same time or same continent as the previous games. It could even be a prequel set many years before the games when dragon knights were plentiful in the world.

I too would like to know who this guy came from so I can keep an eye on the news reports on the gaming sites.

Hmmm, if D is a Dragon simulator I hope it's more fun than being a Dragon in DKS. And they didn't listen to all the people about Zagan and the FoV escort, because then it's a casual cakewalk.

Kind of getting tired of RTS too. Give me one 3D RTS which is fun to play, I know none. They can't beat AoE2, or Red Alert (1)...

So... really interested to know more, but I rather hope the rumours aren't true.

RTS, actually, will be quite disappointing for me but oh well... as Lar said: there is always project E

We can only "guess" which kind of game project D can be ... maybe not RTS, not RPG or MMOPRG, not adventure, not shooter, not puzzle, not ... but something totally different, something that's never seen before !?

But I still Hope it's some kind of 'RPG' game \:\) ... or at least have some RPG features !

RTS RPG would be good.

However, if it can't be viewed as an RPG then I think Project E will be better.

Project E is an RPG, with a top down camera view. Project D has a camera similar to DKS, involves dragons, and is apparently not in a standard game category. Both were said to be scheduled for release next year.

Is Project D in the Divinity universe? I think Lar confirmed it was before. He claims it contains features from Larian's previous games, so we've got the Dragon flying from DKS and there's probably going to be features from Divine Divinity in it if it's hardcore. However, I'm guessing that other features other than RPG elements play a LARGER role which is why the guy watching couldn't work out what genre it was. Larian also developed an RTS before, so it could have RTS elements where you control an army? Who knows?

It sounds interesting and I'm curious of what it could be and what the features of it are now. I'm thinking it's going to have ALOT of different elements in it maybe. It was confirmed that it explores the dragon theme more, so perhaps we spend more time flying about.

That's something that is not clear; if the game is set in the Divinity universe or not. For all we know it could be something entirley new. Can someone at Larian answer this query?

I guess you'll have to wait until the Games Com takes place ? (*joking*)

I hope we get a detailed look of the booth at GC?
With my advanced age (seems like yesterday I was 18 and playing Divine Divinity :'( ) and job a trip to Cologne is very unlikely.
