Fischer) Organization: U. of Waterloo, Ontario Lines: 17 All this talk of Dungeon Master brings to my mind the question: when is the next FTL DM-type game coming out? There appear to be a few netters with better ties to the FTL rumour mill than most. Enquiring minds want to know! Will it be basically another Dungeon Master but just with a different dungeon? If so, I'm not likely to buy it. Dungeon Master is the best game I've played, but heck, I've done the thing twice now, so why buy a clone? What I'd be interested (and what I've heard of, I seem to remember) is, say, a space-based adventure, one that had the same general look and feel of DM, but *wasn't* a dungeon & dragons type game, and had a slightly different way of interacting (e.g., instead of fighting with monsters, you'd fly spaceships or control remote robots or whatever). -- -Jonathan Fischer
