I hate it so much. Every time I read it, all I can think is "that's a typo."



If I remember correctly it actually is a typo. Someone typed "verloren" wrong and thought it was a good name for the game. The story behind names is often not so glamorous.


I kinda hate many current game names, I prefer this. Otherwise, making a current_year name is easy: noun adjective: noun. How about "Dark Kingdom: Multitude"?


*adjective noun: adjective, obviously

The first two usually make some sense together, the third one is where it gets creative / random.


I didn't even spot the missing "r" until I read this comment. Now I feel you.
