Tim Schafer had a bit of a bittersweet message for Double Fine fans at the Develop event in the UK. A Brutal Legend sequel has apparently been scrapped, but in its place four new games have sprung up.

 

Of the cancellation, Schafer said, "Apparently when [the publisher] said it was a done deal, there was a deal, and it was done."

 

After the cancellation of Brutal Legend 2, the studio split into four teams with each working on small "indie-style" games. Double Fine eventually found a publisher for four of their best projects and according to Schafer, we might even see some of them within the year in both retail and downloadable formats.

Nice. If they're smaller then they'll probably be cheaper too. :lol:

To bad Brutal Legend didn't turn out well enough for sequel. I like the idea of what Brutal Legend is about but they didn't make it well enough. I wish they would have done a sequel regardless and listen to the fan input to correct issues.

Brutal Legends first mistake was not starring Dethklock IMO.

The word "deelopement" in the Topic Title is spelt incorrectly, would you like me, the annoying paperclip to correct it? - HcN.

Brutal Legend sucked. I'm still pissed that I bought that turd day one.

DF really is the type of company that should be rocking small indie style niche games; they're not an epic AAA big budget style developer. So this is a GREAT move for them and for the customers, too, IMHO. I think they will do great in that mode.

A Psychonauts 2 would be great! The small Indie groups thing is kind of dropping my radar, but It would be epic nonetheless.

I really enjoyed the game. It's one of my favourites.

I like Rock music and strategy, however, if you don't care for one or both, I can understand why you wouldn't like it.
