I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite thread on Obsidian
Bingo. Seriously, it's what Bioware always has done. The fans just couldn't handle a depressing and devastating end.

Games you are looking forward to
Supreme Commander 2 is coming out early March, and I need some RTS fix (haven't played one since eons). Anyone a fan of Sup1 and want to give me a summary?

Either way, ME3 will have the obvious heroic good ending.

Fallout: New Vegas
I like the color.

Berlusconi idea
Berlusconi is corrupt through and through, and the only reason why he wasn't sanctioned by the EU yet is because Italy a bigger economy then, say, Austria, and therefor can't be bullied.

We need the almighty Ferg to clarify that for us.

What do you mean "goddamn" pipboy? That's an icon to Fallout!

Obsidian is making Wheel of time game
I was thinking "yes", but the more I think about it, the more I think "no". The game will probably use the Onyx Engine, but I don't think it's the one Feargus and George are working on! It has to be that game, because I doubt Obsidian could develop 4 games at the same time.

Obsidian is making Wheel of time game
I get the feeling Obsidian will be the same talkative about this game as AP or NV. Meaning, "we can't talk about it, wait for the publisher's announcement. Sorry".

Bioshock 2
It certainly wasn't the same feel of astonishment and discovery anymore with BS2. But I'm such a sucker for looting and tracking down audio logs, it just doesn't get old. Either way, I rescued all Little sisters, and got the good ending.

Dragon Age discussion
Funnily enough, the grinding in the IE games (hell IWD series!) was actually fun, while the grinding in DA felt stressful and tiresome.

Bioshock 2
I finished it today and was very suprised how well overall the writing and the father-daughter bond was realised. I agree with RP that they have a bit exaggerated the splicer/alpha/mutant spawn rate. It's also harder now to get some ADAM. First, you have to kill a Big Daddy (Rumbler are particularly mean), then you have to find twice a location for the LS to harvest which in return will be heavily assaulted, and with a big luck you have to deal with a Big Sister (toughest enemy, even on Easy) as well. But the improved shooting mechanics makes that up. Sound and Art is as always top notch, the level design a bit more confusing and ramified than BS1, but still 1000 times better than most the linear corridor shooters out there. Overall, I liked BS2 equally as BS1. That means, very much. BS3 can't come soon enough.

Back in 2005 when it was announced it was a very ambitious project, with Dual-Core (!) obligation and an open world. Now it's just a linear action adventure.

This "news" is at least already known for half a year.

Obsidian is making Wheel of time game
I'd like to have confirmation from an Obsidan dev whether this is really the Onyx fantasy RPG Fergie spoke about last year, and whether Obsidian is in charge of design and writing as well. George Ziets and Chris Avellone would be a dream team.

Obsidian is making Wheel of time game
Interesting that they also mention games (plural). So is this gonna be a long-time deal, where we're gonna see a trilogy of some sort? I really hope the Obsidian devs are die-hard fans of that setting, otherwise the series may become stale.

Obsidian is making Wheel of time game
I realy hope this is not the deal, else we get some retarded gangrape of the original IP with overhilarious marketing, ridiculous antisecondhand sales features and NPCs asking for your creditcard numbers selling the newest DLC with special nut armor for your hero... ? Distributor, that means they handle all the Disc/case/manual production and shipping. They can't mess with the developers. Also, I hope we get the forums opened here, not somewhere else.

As long as Obsidian is in charge with story, dialog and characters, I'm happy.

Read Eagle is the publisher and has all the source material, while Obsidian is developing it. EA is the distributor.
