    All right why hasn't @tbone1 received the blue background yet? He obviously knows everything about the next release :)

    Tax purposes. I just don't want to deal with the paperwork

    y'all need to play along better with the spoiler tags :p

    and would a *blah* be worth mentioning if it was unadorned?

    So, BG3 takes place 2,000 years after Throne of Bhaal.

    Your quest is to find a pointy hat for a bitter, bitter woman who works as a barmaid in Waterdeep.
    Edwina?

    When you say hat...

    Do helmets count? Or is it a real hat?

    Is it an Elminster hat, or more like a Jarlaxle hat? o.o'

    Or maaaaaaaaaaybe, it's my tinfoil hat.

    >.>

    <.<

    >.<

    Whatever it is, please include super awesome armor like fantasy Chaos Warriors have.

    Yes, even if it's not fantasy o.o

    It's still early. The writing staff were only hired a year ago. If they are building something from scratch, I'd give the team another 2 years before it's release, minimum, especially with IWD2 being shelved.

    We'll probably get some slow trickles of teasers within those two years but I wouldn't expect anything major as they don't want to build unreasonable hype surrounding the project.

    So do you guys think that we might be getting a completely new game or do you think it will be a rehash of an old game?

    I'm fine with either one and I must admit that Beamdog seems very hush hush and quiet lately...

    I'm 50% / 50% between either a new game, or an expansion of some kind. Otherwise there wouldn't be a need for all-new minotaur models and whatnot. If the new title has something to do with Baphomet then it may be related to either The Throne of Bloodstone or Out of the Abyss. Probably the latter, it being 5th edition and all that jazz.

    My only hope is that the new project doesn't feature the Sword Coast. Cause it's the least appealing location of the Forgotten Realms thanks to being done to death already.

    Yea I am Really Wishing For a Brand new Adventure Somewhere other Than The Sword Coast, Don't get me wrong I love That area And would still Play a New game There but The Forgotten Realms is a Huge Area ( As I Look at my Custom FR Wall hang) Yea Myth Drannor Would be real Sweet!!!!

    I'm 100% sure there's a new 5e FR game in the works. They've even alluded to this themselves from time to time.

    And I totally agree with the sentiment of hoping the game is not set in any FR locale already visited in any previous game. FR is huge and has so many very interesting places. I cannot understand why devs keep going to the same old tired places. Please no Sword Coast or the North, or even the High Forest or the Western Heartlands or Amn. Cormyr, Sembia and the Dalelands would be ok, but even better would be areas further south (Calimshan, Vilhon Reach, Lake of Steam, the Shaar, Dambrath, etc.) or east (Vaasa, Damara, Narfell, Great Dale, Thesk, Aglarond, etc.).

    Geographical locations other than Europe had medieval times? Are you sure of that? Are you sure they were not just randomly drawn masses of land inhabited by troglodytes, devils and monstrous beasts described with the caption "here be dragons"!?

    Because Good vs. Evil is hopelessly overused. And both Law or Chaos themed D&D games are close to nonexistent.
