Republic Games Recruits Chris Avellone for Upcoming RPG Project

Okay, so here’s the scoop. Chris Avellone, this big shot in the game biz, just teamed up with Republic Games. Yeah, saw it on LinkedIn, of all places, courtesy of Adam Williams who’s like the top guy there—he couldn’t stop raving about it.

So, Adam’s chatting with Eurogamer, spilling the beans on some kinda RPG—one of those “choose your own adventure” types with a zillion ways to mess up or win. Sounds cool, right? But who knows, maybe I’m just having a moment here.

Anyhoo, Adam throws down the gauntlet saying Chris is like the puppet master of storytelling in games. Apparently, he’s been weaseling away at these epic RPGs forever. Williams said, and I quote—or maybe I’m paraphrasing—well, who cares, the idea was that Chris is the cream of the crop in this storytelling gig.

Oh, and they’re cooking up this wild, dark fantasy tale. Think of it like falling into a rabbit hole but, you know, one filled with dragons and magic and whatever else fits into a dark fantasy game. I imagine they want us all drooling with anticipation. Are they pulling it off? Perhaps. Will we wait and see? Definitely.

Anyway, there’s a whole lotta buzz at the studio. Dream team alert, people. They’re keeping some juicy details under wraps, though. Secrets, secrets.

By the way, gotta mention—the plot thickens (pun intended) because back in 2020 Chris got tangled up in some nasty accusations about harassment, which he’s totally denying. Makes you think, huh? But let’s not jump to conclusions, I suppose.

So yeah, keep your eyes peeled for those updates. Things are getting spicy.
