Maria Caliban Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Six months later, Obsidian announces that they have no idea what Bethesda was smoking. There is no Fallout: New Vegas; they've been working on The Elder Scrolls V: Fear and Loathing. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.

Slowtrain Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Bethesda announced it, not Obsidian. Â Â Are you still reading the NV threads when the occaisonal suggestion/complaint/idle wish gets posted? Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

jjc Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Given how tight-lipped Bethesda are on anything to do with the next Elder Scrolls, I'm guessing they wanted to reassure people they had an RPG coming after the Fallout 3 DLC ended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aristes Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Bethesda announced it, not Obsidian. hehehehe This made me laugh out loud. Jerk-face! Â Seriously, though, someone mentioned that more news could come out after Alpha Protocol shipped. Maybe then the loose lips sinks ships posters will come down and they'll lift the cone of silence. That would be sweet. It would be kind of weird to design the whole game and present it fait accompli. Most developers want to get the presses rolling in order to engender interest. I suppose there's plenty of time to do that if they start in the last quarter of year. When is the game allegedly shipping again? Â I wonder if this is kind of like the genie scene in PS:T, what with the folks at Obsidian finally getting to work on a Fallout game. :harmless ribbing grin: Â Can you at least tell us if you guys are hot and heavy into the design yet? Maybe no specifics, but at least that you've got a full team working the design or you're still ramping up and waiting for folks to finish other projects? maybe?

Oner Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 This thread got me thinking. 8 million people bought FO 3, most(?) of them [deleted] and shouting best gaem evar!!, and..where are those people? I mean, wouldn't they want to post suggestions and stuff for New Vegas? Are they posting on the Beth forum, or what? Why not on the developer's forum?

Kelverin Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Would rather the developers spent time on the game making it as fun and bug free as possible, in other words doing their jobs and ignoring the fans.

Aristes Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I don't think giving out info about your game or even discussing your decisions means that you must give fans the authority over your design. ...And just talking to folks interested in the game and divulging information certainly doesn't do anything to your design at all. I mean, I don't really care if they talk too terribly much about New Vegas anyhow. There are plenty of other discussions here and I'm picking up New Vegas sight unseen. If they discuss more, I'm happy, but it's not like I'm disgruntled by the cone of silence. I can see why they'd stay quiet and I can see why they shouldn't feel compelled to do so. Plus, maybe it's not Obsidian's decision to keep it on the down low? Maybe Bethsoft has something to do with the secracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveThaiBinh Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 As we're supposed to limit ourselves to the three 'official' New Vegas threads, I'm going to give this one a proper title and one that broadens the topic a little.
