algroth Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 That's a very odd tweet. The link leads to a completely unrelated article, whilst there's a link to another tweet that's also been deleted apparently. Not sure what's up there. 1 My Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/alephg Currently playing: Roadwarden
C2B Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) Im logging in for this because: SERIOUSLY???????? You garner so much goodwill from the community, you make it a POINT that there are no microtransactions “. And then you taint ALL of it for a quick buck. Never been so disappointed in your company and feel honestly like I’ve been taken for a ride. Hopefully its a mistake/fake. Edited March 20, 2019 by C2B 7
algroth Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) Worth pointing out, the trailer specifically lists Steam as a platform. Things could change, of course, but given the tweet offers nothing to back up the claim and links to the wrong article, I'm inclined to believe this hasn't changed.

Insolentius Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 If this ends up being true, Obsidian can literally go **** themselves. 8
Chairchucker Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 If this ends up being true, it will almost certainly be entirely a Private Division decision. 3
Voss Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Yep,if this happens, I'm definitely out. I realize saying so doesn't matter much, since Obs spurns these forums, but still worth saying to the audience. Enjoy the higher percentage on lower sales. I'm honestly surprised the MS overlords would allow this. Its another weird relationship with a third party that doesn't benefit them. 1
Superdeluxe Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 I hope they don't do this. ~Seattle Supersonic of the Obsidian Order~ Chris Hansen is the Savior of Seattle
213374U Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 TOW's publisher is (a subsidiary of) Take-Two, not Obsidian. Put the pitchforks and torches away. And by the way, PoliticallyCorrectGamesN is trash, and you shouldn't give them the clicks. 1 - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
Malcador Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 I will cross my fingers it'll be Epic exclusive. 1 Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
AeonsLegend Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Oh damn. Looks like I won't be playing this game then. 1
Chairchucker Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 And by the way, PoliticallyCorrectGamesN is trash, and you shouldn't give them the clicks. I'm not really familiar with them, what's wrong with them? The 'witty' pseudonym you've given them makes me think I'll probably find the reasons given laughable, but I'm open to being persuaded otherwise. 1
Melusina Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 They have misspelled The Outer Wilds, game with similar title, but not the same. 5 https://store.steampowered.com/curator/33102093/ - Picky Gamer Girl!
Gfted1 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Oh yeah look at this: Outer Wilds 1 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
zezia Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 They have misspelled The Outer Wilds, game with similar title, but not the same. Do you have proof of this?
AeonsLegend Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 They have misspelled The Outer Wilds, game with similar title, but not the same. Let's hope so.
AeonsLegend Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Oh yeah look at this: Outer Wilds I like the fact that the loading page says: The game contains mature content recommended only for ages 0+ 1
Infinitron Posted March 20, 2019 Author Posted March 20, 2019 They have misspelled The Outer Wilds, game with similar title, but not the same. You don't know that for sure.
sean10mm Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 *IF* this story is true, there is no way in hell I buy this game. And I've probably owned every Obsidian game made up to this point. The Epic game launcher is literally spyware that data mines your PC, the first autocomplete suggestion if you google "epic launcher" is "spyware" lmao. 1 1

The 'witty' pseudonym you've given them makes me think I'll probably find the reasons given laughable, but I'm open to being persuaded otherwise. Heh. Beyond the fact that their editorial line is based on fellating publishers, Google and the other usual suspects, it's less of a news outlet than a place for their writers to throw their poorly sourced opinion pieces in. A few months ago there was this non-stop ranting about how crypto miners were destroying gaming for everyone, for example, disguised as hardware "news" articles. It's also full of garbage clickbait "what do we know about X? Release date of X" articles that contain **** all about X, and amount to "we don't know jack squat about X". And they keep pushing those back to the front page every time there's the smallest bit of info about X released. The website layout is atrocious for widescreen, but if you're not browsing from a phone, you're SOL. The frequent virtue signaling is just the icing on the cake. 1 - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
Pidesco Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 I don't think this is at all true but, regardless, you know what this reminds me of? (Where 'this' is people saying "I'll never an Obsidian game ever again!!1!!" ) It reminds of when Steam was new back in 2003/04. The ****storm that was kicked up over it was epic among nerds. Heh. 1 "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI am Dan Quayle of the Romans.I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands.Heja Sverige!!Everyone should cuffawkle more.The wrench is your friend.
Melusina Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 They have misspelled The Outer Wilds, game with similar title, but not the same. You don't know that for sure. LOL, it most obviously is.

Insolentius Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 The frequent virtue signaling is just the icing on the cake. Get a load of this "alpha" male. Just because you're incapable of being a decent person, it doesn't mean that others are "faking" it. 2
AeonsLegend Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) I love how people use the words "alpha male" as if it were something bad. /sarcasm Edited March 20, 2019 by AeonsLegend
