I’ve mentioned Once Lost Games on this blog before. It was supposedly the spiritual successor to Daggerfall. Made by the old crowd that actually made Daggerfall back in the day; Julian LeFay, Ted Peterson and those guys. The team was put together by YouTuber IndigoGaming. I was really excited for the project and was on their Discord server, although it was mostly useless nonsense on there.
Well, seems the game’s not going to happen. IndigoGaming left and published this article about the project.
In short, complete lack of leadership, minimal commitment from team members, unrealistic expectations and unpleasant political debates seemed to plague the team leading to nothing being done and a foul atmosphere.
The article is so damning that I’ve stopped monitoring the project entirely and have personally lost all hope in it. The guys that are left, are still going on with it. I do hope they can salvage the project, create something great and prove me wrong. But for now, it’s goodbye.
