And if I see one more Drow elf, fairy, or hobgoblin in a CRPG i'm gonna kill myself! Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Nights and The Temple of Elemental Evil are all great but where the heck is the variety. Planescape: Torment was different and that made it fantasticly entertaining. It's been about ten years since the last DS game for the PC and I thinks it's about time D&D on the PC has been seen in a new light!
And if Wizards of the Coast will not be releasing any Dark Sun novels are there any good sites on the net that contain Darksun fanfiction?
Troy Denning is an unknown variable here. I've not found any knowledge about what he is doing as of several years ago.
Torment was awesome, perhaps one of the best PC rpg on the market still. There are some groups working on mods for NeverWinter Nights using Dark Sun. Check em out if you can (alas, my bridge is out on my comp so no graphics card and hence no NWN
).As for Dark Sun fan fiction, check Athas.org which hosts a smattering of original fan based submissions. Do a little searching through their link library and that of the Silt Skimmer Dark Sun page link library for more snipits of DS fan fiction.
