The sad thing is he probably spent dozens of hours googling people and stuff just to get that tiny piece of information.

 

Darkfall's release is going to hit him really hard.

 

Poor thing.

Some rather sad and sorry comments by Henning Ludvigson and his partner from 2005 about Darkfall and their working conditions in Greece and at Aventurine, they sound rather unhappy.

Hopefully things have improved over the last 3 years or at least all this time and effort will pay of for them.

Whats ahead for you ? (2005)

Tascha (Natascha Roeoesli, Darkfall developer and Henning Ludvigsens partner)

redesigning again? hehe Scotty you nutcase

Some things I hope for next year (in no particular order)

At least do one illustration work for WotC
At least do a few for White Wolf
Improve my skills with landscapes and more dynmic work
Improve my color understatement
Leave Greece and life in Switzerland with Henning. In our own appartment with cool interior design and offices! (or Norway..)
Have my clients satisfied with my work (well that's always my goal anyway..)
Buy the latest console
Play Darkfall Online
Start to work out again and do sports
 
^ hehe

Haumovie - actually we already did leave our countries to get to Greece.
I am originally Swiss and Henning is Norwegian. He has been working in Athens for a few years now and I joined to live with him this April.

I really hope we can move back to our own countries together (either) and settle down. And I agree! living on the countryside is soooooooooooooooo beautiful. I could never live in a city for long.
 
Henning (Henning Ludvigsen Lead Art director for Darkfall and part owner of Aventurine)
 
Hmmmm....

- Continue doing as much art as possible, want to continue improving.
- Finish Darkfall (Have been working on that game for over 7 years now!)
- Hopefully make a decent income again.
- Leave this crazy, "out of order" country of Greece, and move to a part of europe where the girls doesn't have mustaches.
- Hopefully get included in more Ballistic books.
- Start making my own book with Tascha, just for fun.
- Get a nice home together with Tascha, with 1337 offices.
- Get a REAL computer, this HP laptop can be mistaken for a calulator in processor speed.
- Sign up for Mr. Universe, unless I figure out that beerbellies are not an advantage.
 
Hes been working on Darkfall for over 10 years now, absolutely lincredible.

The skeptics cant lose.  If the game doesnt release, or sucks hard, no surprise.  If it releases and is great, then we get to be pleasantly surprised and play a great game.

Save your petty version of pity, it only make you look like a hater, which I assume you hate.  lol

From Henning Ludvigsens website

New in progress video from our game (from early this year)

And for something else....

Yesterday we released a video we made from the computer game we're working during our spare time. I addition to me and Tascha, there are other people around here involved in it as well like for example ree
 

No wonder its not finished after 10 years if your only working on it during your "spare time"

I'm the Art Director of the company. I've been a part of this project from the very start, from when it was just a wet dream of a few Norwegian geeks back in the days, lol. Tascha is working on different things mostly related to content, like resources, worldbuilding, etc.

Question is, 10 years later, is Darkfall still anything more then just a "wet dream of a few Norwegian geeks"?

Hehe, yeah, and Baka has been by our offices a few times

Nice to have "long time friends" like Baka (Bakatron) who visit your offices a few times and write such nice things about you, your company and your game.

And who’s this “ree” who’s apparently according to Henning is also one of the “other people around here involved in it”

Jan 2008 "Started working on Darkfall Online ([link]) A while back and been very busy since"

Yet another free lance artist, perhaps he’s also another “long time friend” of Henning and Natascha.

It all seems very cozy.
