Silicon Knights Still 'Intends' to Finish Too Human Trilogy

Also intends to sleep. Maybe eat. After that, who knows. Chill out.

Too Human was announced as a trilogy when announcing games as trilogies before the original was a proven success was en vogue. When the oft-delayed Too Human was released to mixed reception and sales and developer Silicon Knights legally went after Epic Games over the development of Unreal Engine 3 (a suit that's still ongoing), the future of Too Human's unproduced sequels was left sitting in doubt. 

Two Silicon Knights employees made comments about the future of Too Human today, oddly enough.

"We intend to finish the trilogy but no comment beyond that," said company president Denis Dyack in a comment to Industry Gamers. "You know, there's very public litigation around that."

== TEASER ==Separately, assistant project director Julian Spillane introduced himself to the "official" Silicon Knights community (the spin-off is actually endorsed by the studio on its own website) and addressed the issue.

"Well, unfortunately we can’t talk about any of the unannounced games we’re currently working on," said Spillane, "but we can definitively say that we do plan on finishing the trilogy. "

There's a stark difference between intention and bonafide development, however. 

Silicon Knights is currently developing the RPG-focused X-Men: Destiny for Activision.

I didn't hate Too Human, but damnit, Dyack, just give us those Eternal Darkness sequels! That's what I really want!

Inspite of all the little annoyances of the game(and there were a lot!) i still enjoyed the setting of Too Human and i've been praying that they make another.  Hopefully they can take the community feedback to heart and use it to make the sequel awsome!

I might just start playing Too Human again. 


That game wasn't great. But, hey, it wasn't all that bad either.

What has Silicon Knights even been doing for the past 3 years? I mean, Too Human didn't exactly sell very well, did it? Of course, Denis Dyack has proven himself to be totally and utterly crazy whenever he has opened his mouth, so I wonder if this will ever come to fruition.

After watching thor last night, I thought to myself, I really could go for another Too Human game, a sequel could be good, if they fixed all the dumb as fuck gameplay decisions.

I fully intend to finish this sandwich in front of me, but the capacity of my stomach is preventing my intentions from becoming real.

I have never played this game, but I've been reading a lot of reviews on it lately. Do any of you guys think it's worth going out and buying? - Scott with Slim Jim

I know the first one wasnt really that good, but there was potential for it to be a lot better game. If they take the criticism of the first and work on it im sure they can make the AAA title they were going for.

I had no idea there was going to be a trilogy but I think they had a good idea with this game. I'm not sure how they're going to do this with the lack of success of the first one but if they can market this well, then good for them.

Just update the tech and gameplay a little and release the next two on xbox live arcade and I'll be all over it.

First was a good idea story/lore wise with gameplay that didn't really hold your attention for a full retail title. Do it again at a cheaper price point and I'll be excited to revist the franchise.

I 'intend' to take a another giant dump in a few moments, so I guess Silicon Knights and me have something in common.

Oh, alright, Too Human wasn't that bad. :P

I'd like to see them get another shot at it. I thought this franchise had potential.

The setting and characters in this series has such amazing potential. Really stoked they're planning on finishing it.
