Obsidian should come up with its own post-apoc shooter and then they should finally stop copying Bethesda and start working on PoE III. Why would obsidian make another IP for post apoc? Microsoft already has fallout and wasteland... Not sure they need a third. Although you did sway me with "start working on PoE 3" I do worry a bit about obsidian after Microsoft bought bethesda.

Blodhemn 135 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 How many people are still around that made New Vegas? A sequel would most likely not resemble the same game. How about Microsoft hire MCA and Mitsoda and put them on a character and C&C rich RPG? An offshoot of Bloodlines, considering that travesty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LadyCrimson 4,108 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I guessed I missed this news. Not that I'm surprised. Pretty soon all media entertainment of all forms will be owned by some giant, single, mega-corp created by buying/merging everyone else into it. "All restaurants are Taco Bell," indeed. As to Obsidian and Fallout ... it'd be nice but I doubt it'd happen or be/feel the same even if it did. Still - I'd be curious what would result if by some miracle it came to be.

Hurlshot 8,166 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I'm just not sure where we are seeing play-it-safe fluff. Maybe if you just look at AAA games, but we are literally living through a golden age of gaming. What game is not being made right now? I can't think of a genre that isn't getting some weird love from some development team. There has never been a better time to be a gamer. I can find multiple options for pretty much any type of game I want to play. I was on a space exploration kick over the summer and was overwhelmed by the options. Realistic medieval sims? Turn based tactical? Adventures? Tentacles? Everything is out there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
