Leonard Boyarsky (CEO of Troika) talked to HomeLAN Fed regarding the latest rumor about Troika, here's what he said:<blockquote>However, HomeLAN contacted Trokia's CEO Leonard Boyarsky over the phone and he repeated to us what he told GameSpot; that the developer is still in business, although he told us that Trokia is currently "pursuing other options" for the company. A statement on Trokia's future will be made sometime next month although Boyarsky told us that the announcement will likely not come this coming week as the GameSpot rumor story hinted.</blockquote>Leonard also told me that they're still here, so they're not dead or closing doors.

No... Gamesssspot wassss lying! Filthy liarssss ... And thievessss.... Troika's fine, troika's fine! My precioussss....
 
Even action concoles games would be ok? Dont agree with that since Troika said once smth strange about mmorpgs and consoles and shallow RPGs.
 
I'm down for anything Troika wants to do.

Although I have stated in another thread I thought ToEE and Vampire were letdowns. Vampire was still better than anything I've played in years. I thought the game was great, it's just really hard to live up to Fallout.

But if they goto the Gamecube, DS, PSP or PS2. Then I will not buy the product.

Xbox and Mobile games, are a different story though 8)
 
Well, hopefully they can weather this. There aren't many crpg developers left.

I'm not. If they turn into any other company we either despise or pay no attention to, I see no reason to be "down" with it. I'm not going to support a "company", nor even the people who work for it (heck, if someone makes a product I don't need, I'm not buying it and sorry if that loses you your job). If they make good games, then I'll support them.

That newspost hardly contained anything new, though, but considering Leon isn't exactly saying anything positive they'd either be working on something secret or they're dead in the water.
 
Troika should do whatever they have to do to stay in business. If that means making an action game, fine... as long as they market as such. I think both Vampire and Arcanum were high quality games, though ToEE suffered from horrid bugs and slowdowns. Having seen the past games of Troika's members, I think it's silly of us to fear that they'll become untrue to their roots, but they need money above all to make a game, and it's certainly not our position to lobby against it. Good luck, Troika.
 
What Troika needs (besides cash) is to either find a good place to do QA or start releasing closed betas. They have yet to release a game that wasn't severely hindered by bugs.
 
Agreed... though I haven't heard many complaints about VMBL as far as bugs but wasn't the issue with ToEE that (faux)Atari rushed them to release it?
 
So, maybe it's good Troika didn't get the Fallout license after all, or else we would have seen it die once again. Or, delayed yet again for a longggg time.
