Meh. The fanfare would be a much less of a resounding 'Oh, that's cool I suppose..' if it were.

Let's be honest when someone says Baldur's gate, Dark alliance is the last thing most people think of, if at all. Not to say they were bad or anything but it's not what the franchise is known or popular for.

Dark Alliance? Wasn't that some crappy PS2 game...?

It was essentially a Diablo clone.
It took place in/under Baldur's gate (or atleast the first game did) but apart from that it had very little in common or associated with the core games. I believe they just wanted to tap into the console market and used the brand name to build the game off of.

That said it was actually half decent and pretty fun, if completely unconnected.

I was joking, I knew what it was.

I was weary of PC-to-console shifts since I was young, having played the Ultima games on NES... Dark Alliance was avoided.

They might be able to. The Dark Alliance series is kind of in a grey area. It was made because the rights for the D&D rule system was lost, but the rights to 'Baldur's Gate' were still retained. Presumably because BG3 is being made, those rights were reacquired or left in limbo long enough to pop back to Hasbro/WotC. Last I heard, the rights were with Interplay who was part of Vivendi, which imploded itself.

Having only played the Dark Alliance games, it would be very welcomed by me.
Actually number 1 and 2 could get PC ports.
This is the day and age where all old console games are coming to PC.

Man, I’d love a Dark Alliance 3. They could do a ton with a D&D themed Diablo style ARPG on next generation consoles.

Still rather have BG3 more though.

Dark Alliance on the xbox was the last good memory I have of my dad.
For some reason he wanted to play it with me but it was pretty short for a game.
Not dead, he is just a stuck up arsehole that blew a million on a condo in Hawaii he cant afford anymore instead of doing ANYTHING he promised all his kids. Didn't even invest any money while I'm over here with easy proof of doubling what rocks I have available.

It was also a pretty fun game for a fourteen year old. (think thats how old I was anyways)
