Hmm. Well, it's not as if it's a huge change, but it does look smoother now.

I liked the other menu... :(

But I agree it does look a lot smoother now. It's just that the light-brown color wood theme looked better than Avernum's blue-green thing. More natural.

Btw, the old design is still available in the google-cache of the site: here.

Edit: In fact, Jeff has gone to great lengths to preserve the original template - by changing the capitalization of the image filenames. :D I wonder if what we're looking at is a permanent change or just some fiddling around.

I don't really care, except the new logo no longer matches the name Spiderweb very well. I was very surprised when the page took a while to load, though. I wasn't expecting to actually have new images to download instead of the usual cached assortment.

I quite love it actually. The colours are definitely a lot nicer than they were before, and the top banner is very funky. So far i think it's the best layout out of the ones that i've seen.

Does the jungle type one still exist somewhere? I've never seen the first layout either and i'd be curious to see them again.

I like it, especially the buttons that light up.

I miss the wood layout now...

Ew. This one would be much better if it weren't for the ugly tiled 'Spiderweb Software' logo in the background- at least with the old one you didnt notice it so much.

I liked the old one.

This is too 'Avernumy' for me. (I prefer Exile)

Seems like an improvement, although I never felt that there was anything wrong with the old layout.

I like the new layout, except for the white strip in between, "Home" and "Our Games".

I am the way into the doleful city
I am the way into eternal grief,
I am the way to a foresaken race.
Justice it was that moved my great creator;
Divine omnipotence created me,
And highest wisdom joined with primal love.
Before me nothing but eternal things
Were made, and I shall last eternally
Abandon all hope, all you who enter.

So, it's okay to make Blades of Avernum and "Blades of Geneforge" (or something like it), so we can make thousands of our own scenarios, but the guy who made the games can't.... why again?

Who said he can't? The fact that he's going to proves that he can. Some of us would just rather see something original.

I don't understand why a lot of people hate Geneforge. It's certainly a lot more fun than most BoE/BoA scenarios.

Well, for one thing, it'd be nice to see Jeff make something with a plot that didn't somehow centre around a rebellion.

I love the graphics, although it's only on rare occasions that I go to the main site. Usually I just come here.

And as for GF3 - seperate isles? Does that mean we'll have an outdoors of sorts, or will there just be links to different islands?

Well, GF games cost $30 whereas BoE scenarios are dirt cheap on a per scenario basis. The expectations are higher, and there are some BoE scenarios that are better than any Geneforge game.

Oh yes, I have a funny feeling there will be a Geneforge 4.
