Silicon Knights hiring, possibly for Too Human 2

Would you like to become a Silicon Knight? If so, you'll be pleased to learn that the Ontario-based developer is hiring game designers for a new project, according to a Gamasutra job listing posted on July 10. We must note that we aren't sure if employment at Silicon Knights entitles you to call yourself a Silicon Knight.

Destructoid speculates (to its horror) that the project is a Too Human sequel, which seems likely, given that the job requires "familiarity with the fantasy and science fiction genre and role-playing games." With the current state of the industry, we're delighted to see more job openings, even if they result in more Too Human.

Seriously, this is not a game that should ever be made.
Too human was boring, had clumsy ass fight controls and was wayyyyyyyy over hyped by that retard Dyack.

I'm ashamed that Silicon Knights calls Ontario home, it makes the rest of us look bad.

^ The death animation alone for Too Human was ridiculous. I bet that's another brilliant Dyack idea, the unskippable death animation. GAH!

What a shitty game, it makes me angry just remembering it.

Lets hope the level design is WAY better!

too human was "not" a bad game. It was not a fantastic game but definitely not a bad one.

How many people here have actually played the game and not just the demo?

The difference between different classes not having enough of an impact top go through the game a second or third time needs to be fixed.

I think if they did not have a 15 second valkyrie animation to allow you to continue and had an Arcade like press the button within next 15 seconds to continue would have improved perception but I think it fits well with the game's setting. I also believe that without (essentially) no penalty death this game would have been too hard and people would have been bitching about it as well.
