Too Human 2 to take less time

Denis Dyack reveals that "There won't be any more engine re-writes or anything like that".

Too Human has had a troubled development, but it will finally arrive in the UK on August 29 (August 19 in the US). This is all well and good, but what about the next two games in the planned trilogy? Speaking to VideoGamer.com at a recent press event in London Dyack confirmed that the plan is still to make a trilogy of games and that the next game won't take so long to complete.

"It's certainly going to be faster than the first game. The whole idea of doing the trilogy was it was meant for the 360. Plans are still on track, nothing has changed." stated Dyack. "We're not announcing anything on the second or third game here. We're here to talk about the first. But people should be fairly happy at the development process from here on in. There won't be any more engine re-writes or anything like that. So it should be a lot smoother waters."

Funny. Let`s see how Too Human 1 does FIRST. I`m NOT sure if this trilogy will make it.

Maybe, we`ll see.

gaffyh6495d ago

Exactly, shouldn't they wait until they see how good Too Human 1 is before they start talking about the second game.

Kenshin_BATT0USAI6495d ago

Shouldn't they wait till the next Xbox? I doubt two more games like this will fit into like 5 years MAX now?

marinelife96495d ago

The Sistine Chapel took less time only four years. Of course Michaelangelo didn't start out using the Unreal Engine.

KidMakeshift6495d ago (Edited 6495d ago )

Advent Rising 2 took less time too... oh, wait
I wonder who won the million dollar contest... oh, wait

I'm waiting for Dyack to start posting "will embarrass self for game sales" on Neogaf... oh, wait

el_bandito6495d ago

hmmm...they aren't even sure if the first one will be good enough to deserve a sequel. Actually I'm foreseeing a lot of reviews that will pan the game. They say that to err is human. The developers quite messed up this one; I'm guessing they're too human after all.

mikeslemonade6495d ago

Too Human 2 on the 360 isn't going to do any better. The system power of the 360 is obsolete.

Thats if MS give you the funding to make the second one. If the first flops in sales than a doubt they'll waste their money on a sequel let alone a whole trilogy

Tobias1236495d ago

Exactly. I still feel that there is a lot of potential in Too Human, I hope it does well, so that we can get more.

TheExecutive6495d ago

ummm did anyone expect it to take longer? a sequel usually never takes longer.

el_bandito6495d ago

LOL, The first one took almost ten years. Cutting it by half seems fair enough. j/k

IzKyD13316495d ago

wow, you'd think they'd wait till AFTER the game releases to start talking about sequels

Snukadaman6495d ago

If you knew anything about this game,it has been a part of a trilogy.

RazzerRedux2169d ago

Fun fact: I'm one of five people to have completed Too Human and actually liked it. It should be noted that the other four ended up in mental institutions....sadly.

excaliburps2169d ago

I completed it and kinda liked it. Controls were iffy but overall, I dug it. Shame Dyack was crazy. xD

IanTH2169d ago

Glad to hear it! So, when did you get out of the institution?

Marquinho2168d ago

Too Human was "The Order: 1886" of the 360.

Nitrowolf22169d ago (Edited 2169d ago )

I have never played this, mostly because I didn't own an Xbox prior to a few months ago Def. will check this out

darthv722169d ago

It certainly has a cool story and its a good game. it was just marred by long development time and kind of egotistical creator.

Looper2169d ago

Hey!! I was told survivors had all signed an NDA! I'm telling!

Kribwalker2169d ago

i really liked this one too. Always wished for a sequel, but sadly i don’t see it in the cards

excaliburps2169d ago

Yeah, it had a solid story and game mechanics. I remember the controls weren't smartly implemented, and every time you respawned, the animation was so long.

Fantangoooo2169d ago

I can't count the number of times I finished this game gridding for gear. Weird control but I liked it

Neonridr2169d ago

sounds very Polybius to me..

Poopmist2169d ago

Me and my friend beat it so many times. I got the best armor mathematically possible in it. Great game imo but their needed to be more tutorials on how runes work. The one that spawns singularities upon hitting someone was cash.

DerfDerf2169d ago

I actually really enjoyed it.

RamRod882169d ago

I beat it too. The controls were weird, but once I got use to them it was okay. I found the story to be actually half decent. Too bad there wasn't a sequel because I really believe if they have fixed the issues the first game had(controls, camera, etc), it could have been a great series.

HyperMoused2169d ago

I though it was great too, yay us

Anomander2169d ago

Beat it as well. it had a good story line. Overall it was decent.

glennhkboy2169d ago

I remember that I played the 1st stage. The control was so bad that I couldn't force myself to continue.

morganfell2169d ago

Fun fact...you're actually one of six :) That game was the reason I kept an Xbox 360 running until they released the very last B/C titles and it was among them.

Chronicle7802168d ago

I thought the game was ok, clunky but ok. Every time I go back to play it though it takes 20 minutes for the controls to 'click' again. Pity most of the advanced combos and controls aren't listed anywhere in the game.

Phoenix Down 87.0 – Too Human

Denis Dyack would disapprove.

darthv722417d ago

I liked this game. It has it's flaws but the story and mechanics are pretty good. It still holds up today.

Kribwalker2417d ago

i really enjoyed it when it came out.

It was free recently on xbox through BC. Id love to see this revived but sadly i think the legal issues would stop that
