Gorth Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 That sounds familiar... pop quiz time, which Obsidian guy started out as "the web guy" and made a career in the games industry? “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Hormalakh Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 OEI is making an MMORPG? Man... don't those things always end up as failures? Does Obsidian really need another game that people will bash?

PIP-Clownboy Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Would be great if the next Fallout game was contracted out to Obsidian. Because Fallout 3 was trash compared to NV, especially the writing. That frees Bethesda to work on a new IP or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hormalakh Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 bethesda should just give fallout "back" to OEI. That would be best. But we live in a world ruled by money and shareholders. So that won't do.

sorophx Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Obsidian hardly has the resources to make a Bethesda-esque game. Bethesda should make Fallout 4 (read: the engine and the tools) and then contract Obsidian to make an Add-On (example: New Vegas). Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bethesda reuses them themselves everytime with (sometimes smaller, sometimes larger) adjustments so I don't really see your point.

Walsingham Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I for one don't want Bethesda's bug-ridden foundations anywhere near me and mine. I'm currently stuck unable to complete Skyrim's DLC _OR_ Fallout 3's DLC because of bugs. 1 "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete.

Lexx Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Why do you lie. Fallout 3 was totally bugfree! Oh wait. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's like saying Fallout 2, IWD 1/2, KOTOR 2 were all add-ons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgoth Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Fallout just belongs to Obsidian. Bethesda can keep TES and make glorious Oblivion 2 or something. 1 Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malekith Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Fallout just belongs to Obsidian. Bethesda can keep TES and make glorious Oblivion 2 or something. Pity it will never happen. In fact Obsidian would made a better TES game than Bethesda as well. Bethesda should stick to publising and not making games. They are terrible at it.

exodiark Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) I would really kill to play Elder Scrolls: Akavir from Obsidian.An Asian-themed (not just China, could be India, South East Asia, etc) fantasy games from a developer that actually do research.

HoonDing Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) Fallout just belongs to Obsidian. Bethesda can keep TES and make glorious Oblivion 2 or something. Magnanimous Brian Fargo should buy the IP from Bethseda and gift it to his good friends at Obsidian. Or maybe start a Kickstarter to scrounge together the money for the IP.
