CarrionCrow: If they're trying for a more serious, realistic tone, it sounds like they've flubbed a bit.
I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't ever a sequel. Big pitfall of people who want to put out segmented games - they don't always get finished, for whatever reason.
Hell, THQ screwed up on that one, so an independent developer's chances of failure would be even higher.
If it's any consolation, I have the game on my list. Whenever I can get it at a good price, I'll be picking it up also.
And no, you're not the only one that happens to, by any means. It's happened to me more than once, despite my best efforts to have a handle on what I actually own.
ddickinson: The game could be good, it needs some more polish and some importations, but it could have been a good game, the story is quite intriguing. I have a feeling it is very short, which would be another let down. If the developer wants to charge such a high price for this, then he could at least include the second part for free as an incentive. But that won't happen, like you said, it probably won't even get made. I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't ever a sequel.

ddickinson: Well at least I know it's not just me. :-)
I have Ether One on my shelf and I have no idea when I bought it.
Reviews across the board put it as average at best, and terrible at worst.
Also, the Twitter account for the game hasn't been active since nearly a year ago.
Sounds like product abandonment to me.
