Hi Soren, cool to read you worked at Firaxis Games. Any chance we could see some sort of Alpha Centauri-like videogame coming after this?

I think you and I think alike about this topic. I agree that Beyond Earth was decent in its delivery, but lacked massively in the flavour depth as you said.

I've seen a couple of Turn Based games that have a sci-fi setting, but none of them have this narrative depth and character. That's why I was wondering something like an expansion of the choice system as in Old World to provide with something similar as what Alpha Centauri did. Sort of like a sci-fi setting and call it New World.. wink wink

Yeah, I know. That's why I was wondering if you were considering a sci-fi game like Alpha Centauri. Beyond Earth was a good attempt, but didn't had the same appeal to me, and seeing the extensive event system in Old World make me remember the intricate gameplay and diplomacy Alpha Centauri had.
