We got Soulstorm. It's not a remake but it's inspired by Abe's Exoddus. The short of it is this: I wanted to re-tell that story because basically time, money, and business shaped it into something that was not the original envision of how Abe's Quintology was going to unfold. Which is why at the time I had this story about Soulstorm Brew and addiction. Basically Abe's Oddysee was the story about how the slaves wake up and free themselves of their oppressors. And Abe's Exoddus was really going to be part 2 of that which was and then the slaves wake up to the fact that their own habits and addictions bring their own oppression. And so they had to free themselves from themselves. But in reality what happened was Exoddus just wind being a game we had to get done in 9 months and as a result script due next week it has to be executable in 9 months. And it wind up being a story. The team did a great job. But it wind up being a story that was not what I planned on having as the second piece in the Quintology and so it's sort of through my intent of the big epic story, the five piece story that I wanted to tell.
