Bloodlines - bug-o-rama that shares Gothic 3 fate, a potential market changer that didn't become bestseller due to it's poor release state so noone cared to clone it's superb designs.
Arcanum - a rare magic&tech hybrid with chakram among weaponry, a huge world full of secrets and a game with ZXspectrum/C64 sprites quality released in wrong times when graphics whoring became a trend even among those who didn't care much about visuals. It needed a remake in a better engine immediately after release, sadly we won't see one ever.
ToEE - d&d combat on PC was never done this great, but it's a proof that brilliant combat system doesn't make a good game. If it was a console title it'd sell like hotcakes, on that platform noone cares about anything but combat. On PC, it was received a disappointment. Well deserved IMO.
They had potential. I'll never understand why they closed doors, but then again better dead than sold to EA.
