Reckoning Sequel Wishlist

[RingX55]

It will be interesting to see if BHG ever goes back to their roots or if they plan on sticking with RPGs.

I feel as it would be a waste not to use their Engine again for another RPG. But maybe down the road I can see them doing a RTS.

As much as I loved Reckoning, I would love to see a better graphics engine. The draw distance left a lot to be desired and the character models weren't as good as they could have been. I'm playing on a very high-end PC and even with everything set on max, there's issues. Pop-in was a small problem too. Lip syncing on the dialogue was usually just "acceptable", but never great. Also, there were WAY too many side quests. I felt that it distracted from the main story. I got 15 hours in and had to stop myself and remember that I had barely scratched the main quest. Nothing was really driving me forward.

I also would like to see characters that are very multi-dimensional and actually make you care about them. Dragon Age Origins and the Mass Effect series does this really well. I loved the Captain in Dead Kel and Alyn. But for the most part, the characters weren't really that engaging.

Agreed about the characters there were only a few I really liked.
