bonarbill Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I do give props to Colin for this tweet I know Gaider didn't consider it a criticism either, but perhaps some of my time on BSN has me take "interactive movie" as too much of a pejorative. Much easier to rally behind "Dragon Age and us do something different, and we want to leverage the advantages of our gamestyle to its fullest in a way that can be more challenging for Dragon Age." I am always interested in whether people like Gaider and McComb really like each other. There must be loads of professional rivalry and even on a personal level I'm sure all these writers want to be known by the fans as the "best Fantasy RPG writer ever". They all are so talented but sometimes I assume there style gets dictated to by a Publisher? Who would accuse Gaider of being the best fantasy RPG writer ever? Anyway, as a backer of the game, I'm wondering who here hasn't kicked and is man or woman enough to get us MCA before the Kickstarter ends. >Obsidian is still relying on publisher contracts as its business model though while InXile decides to rely on Kickstarter. So I guess its pretty unlikely to merge.That's not necessarily true, their last major product was published by Bethesda. *points to the new South Park game.

melkathi Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Chris Roberts gave a shout out to Torment in the latest newsletter for Star Citizen: http://www.robertsspaceindustries.com/torment-tides-of-numenera/ (in which he also in passing mentions Obsidian ) Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).

Tigranes Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 If Obsidian were to abandon publisher contracted work they would have to radically restructure the company, and probably lay off a whole lot of people.

Labadal Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I don't wish for them to ditch big budget games. I just hope they can do these smaller budget games while also working on their bigger projects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
