Just do whatever you guys want, okay...

The reason why I'd back any money into this thing at all with as little knowledge of planned content as has been given is because I have total faith that your (Obsidians) talents of game development are better than mine. Pandering to what the community and player base ask for is where artists (including Bioware) start to decline into mediocrity. Just something to keep in mind.

Basically...

 

Obsidian, you know how Caesar and Mr. House, who are both autocrats and don't take **** from anybody and do what they think is best, were both brilliant, charismatic leaders who had quite clever strategies and long-term plans and goals up their sleeves?

 

Then Kimball was an elected official by popular vote and he was kind of an idiot that didn't know how to shut off his microphone and his plan was "Iunno let's go east and look for stuff," and much of the NCR was shown to be ineffective and incompetent?

 

Ya....

I agree. They shouldn't be taking any kind of feedback from players for this game. All the best RPGs had no player feedback. Developers just made them on their own. No reason to start now, especially when player feedback has caused such terrible RPGs to be released recently.

Pls leave the bioware stuff for the bioware

fantastic example.

 

That said, I think they're actually asking the fans what they'd like to see. Intelligent people generally aren't threatened by ideas. I do hope that they take things as "good/interesting suggestion" / "ugh, no way we're doing that" instead of feeling obligated to listen to something that's dumb even if it gets popular support.
