"The best game ever": Old World designer dreams of making a sequel to Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri that "renews the mechanics"
Daniels Umanovskis, a designer on Mohawk Games' Old World, expressed a strong desire to create a sequel to Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, calling it "the best game ever." He believes a modern take on the game could renew its mechanics while maintaining its high-quality narrative and atmosphere. Soren Johnson, another designer at Mohawk, also commented on the challenges of designing modern 4X games without a clear 'empty map' starting point, often leading to sci-fi settings.
