The layoffs at one of your studios most able to ship games is a bonkers, stupid decision; but pivoting Obsidian to making a new Fallout game is a good business decision if you don’t care about what your creatives feel led to create.
New Vegas Fans: “We want Obsidian to make Fallout again”
Monkeys paw curls
Honestly, the new Odsidian game is not going to be on the same level of New Vegas. Due most of the people who made NV left Odsidian (mainly the writers) years ago.
I don’t get this mentality of deciding something isn’t as good before it’s even been created yet. I don’t even think New Vegas is Obsidian’s best RPG. I’d say that’s Pillars 2.
I can only expect it’ll be as lifeless as Avowed.
Hopefully I’m wrong.
Microsoft had Windows 95, Windows XP and Windows 7. Microsoft have a lot of things that they bought then destroyed… Go Google Microsoft acquisitions Here
Look how many of those companies and software no longer exist.
Now my company is moving to Windows 11, I see all these problems and bugs because Microsoft company-wide actually don’t understand the product that they support.
Go to your windows computer, go into the settings, dive deep into the settings… The older the UI looks the more likely it’s going to be actually in control of your computer.

It tends to be more functional too
Yep.
Honestly I am surprised they didn’t do this years ago. It makes sense to let the studio that made the best Fallout game continue making Fallout games while the other studio works on the long-neglected Elder Scrolls 6. Otherwise we’d just be looking at decade-long droughts between Elder Scrolls and Fallout games at the pace BGS develops.
Damn, Obsidian makes good RPGs but they’re not so great at making the kind of open world sandbox RPG that Fallout has been since the 3D era, so idk if they’ll do better than last time where they gave us a great RPG hidden deep under the baggy clothes of an absolutely awful open world. I like FNV for what it is, but they’re really not the right studio for modern 3d Fallout. I hope they let Obsidian make the more classic RPG style of Fallout that they clearly wanted to make with FNV, but I highly doubt that would happen.
Smart money is that it’s built on the bones of The Outer Worlds 2, which was great. Failing that, a far dumber but still possible decision would be to build it on the bones of Fallout 76 or Starfield.
And then shut them down.
No if it doesn’t sell $1B let half of staff go like with ID Software. Force remaining people to use AI and work twice as much.

Welp this is going to be disastrous for the fallout series.
I guess we’ve eventually come full circle?
I’ll believe it when I see it. And even if I do, I’ve decided a while ago to be as not supportive of anything Microslop as possible.
I still won’t buy it if it’s Xbox exclusive.
That would be Xbox and PC and everything except Playstation
Ehhhh to my understanding sharma wants it Xbox only.
The games that they’ve said are going to be Xbox exclusive are still coming to PC.
Todd is not happy.
stop this bullshit narrative please. todd not liking more video games coming out is absurd
Shit, you’re right. He only going to get mad. If it sells better.
you have zero knowledge on the subject and this comment shows it
Easy, Todd. Go play some Starfield. You will feel better.
