BioShock’s Ken Levine Teases New Open-World Sci-Fi RPG
Ken Levine has released some information on his new game, the first since he dissolved BioShock developers Irrational Games. Levine revealed the tidbits on Twitter, responding to fan questions.
He said that the “current thinking” points towards a first-person “sci-fi or sci-fi ish” RPG, based on an original idea.
RT @Trey_Tice: give us a hint as to what this setting is? Or is that confidential? –We're playing with something sci fi. Or sci-fi ish.

In a series of tweets, Levine then divulged further details, including that the game is “heavily reliant on re-usable ‘Lego’ narrative and game systems [sic]” and will be a “small open worldish […] rpg”.
@SGuergachi –The scope will be large-ish, but heavily reliant on re-useable "lego" narrative and game systems, which are re-combineable

@krustentier7 i think small open worldish (but not necessarily outdoors) rpg with quest structure coming from passion system.
