J. R. R. Frogboy has arrived

The only problem with this is that it would be incompatible with the 'extend the world' idea. In terms of a fantasy game, I think it would be more suited to a flat world, simply because in general fantasy lore, there is always an unknown land beyond the known world (see Lord of the Rings, Narnia etc).

It had to happen.. The Frogboy appreciation society!

To give a comparison, Empire Total War was announced September 07 or there abouts, 18 months before its release next year. Elemental was announced this month, approx 16 months before planned release date (I won't tempt fate by asking how final that date is [e digicons]:X[/e] ) As for Starcraft 2, it was announced 18 months ago and will probably be out sometime in the next century if we are being optimistic.
