Realms of Arkania : Blade of Destiny

Seems the developers are fairly active on the Steam forums, I'll go ask, even though I don't have an OS4 machine.  I'm guessing since it uses OpenGL it shouldn't be too terribly difficult, but then again I have no clue.

P.S. Only the first one ever came out for anything besides DOS/Windows.  But as far as I know, they're remaking all three.

As I say I really really hope they leave the other two alone and leave these historical RPGS as they are.

Cas -I think we need a new RPG game on the Amiga.

slaapliedje  -  thank you, Maybe it will spark some interest in the Amiga with steam players

Hmm, interesting thought, I think Desura is open source (for those who have never heard of Desura, it's a Steam-like service, but seems to be more centralized toward mods and the modding communities).  Maybe someone should look into porting it to the Amiga.

How cool would it be to get some of the games that have become 'free' in the past decade or so, and have them in an easily maintainable game library on the Internet?  Maybe it could be a launch pad for getting more companies that made games in the mid-80's to 90's to free up their old software library.

Edit: Desurium is the open source version of Desura.  It's under GPLv3.  http://www.desura.com/groups/desurium

Developer responded about Realms of Arkania.  He said that the Unity engine that the game uses would need to be ported to OS4.  Of course if you could get the Unity Engine guys to port that, there would be a possibility of other great games that use it, like Wasteland 2, which I think would be VERY awesome!
