Unless you can give at least one link to an example of this I'm going to assume you're making this up. |
Any that are being done semi-professionally I dont care to give you. And tho I gave up on most of them but if you put Master of Magic into a search on sites like SourceForge you can easily find large projects in various stages of completion. Feel free to join any you wish. But like I said, most tend to start off good then try to go MP and fall apart. Im still hoping for one that just completes the working-version stage before going off topic (come to think of it, isnt Elemental itself an example of that? So why did you ask?)
Actually speaking of SourceForge and any of the other Open Source or Cloud Project sites...
Anyone here who is interested in getting in as a programmer, graphics, sound, or just general idea-discussion; take any old game that you really liked and do a search of project sites like these. If you loved it then chances are that someone else did also. There are many projects trying to resurrect old classics.

Dom IV is still in discussion mode as I understand it. (note that it is not being done by Illwinter)
|
You mean we're sometimes whining about how much we'd like it made? I wouldn't call that "discussion mode"
|
Thats funny. I thought that Dom3Mods had one.
Most of the ones I was thinking of the discussion is in IRC. Of course, I tend to be less of a cheerleader than a naysayer. And I wouldnt say that any have reached any serious levels. In fact, until at LEAST an alpha playable version exists I dont bother contacting most projects.

IW's secret game is only alpha as far as I know and their alpha's tend to require a working knowledge of Finnish which I dont have.
|
They're Swedish, like me. Not finnish, completely different languages. So if you have the slightest idea where I could use my extraordinary linguistic skills to find out more on the alpha I'd be more than happy to translate for you. Or perhaps the problem is rather the whole "secret" thing? You know, them not wanting anyone, including you, to know about it.

No I dont think so. I really dont picture you in the alpha group.
