Josh Sawyer Heads to Obsidian Entertainment

According to posts he personally made on the Mistress’ Lair forums, Josh Sawyer has left Midway to work on Neverwinter Nights 2 at Obsidian Entertainment. Here’s a quick rundown of his responses:

Interesting stuff. Romero seems to have a history of “parting ways”. Wasn’t Midway the company where J.E Sawyer went?

“Friday is actually my last day at Midway.”

So is gaunlet done then Sawyer?

“Nope.”

I can only still hope you might go back to work at an RPG Gaming company?

“I am going to work for Obsidian, starting Monday.”

Can you tell us what you’ll be working on?

“Neverwinter Nights 2.”

I wonder how the absence of Romero and Sawyer will affect the future of Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows. Time will tell, I suppose.
