What's up with that? Okay, here's a very convoluted guess (my apologies): Obsidian has released their Pathfinder card game. And this spring, we got a lot of Pathfinder CRPG questions in that survey. Then we saw that Russian Kingmaker Pathfinder CRPG in the making, with MCA and all, based on the Unity engine, early summer. Perhaps Obsidian started off with a bigger undertaking, but is now left with the task of making a Pathfinder CRPG for consoles. I'm not saying it's Kingmaker, but perhaps some other Pathfinder CRPG? *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" *** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not done with Pathfinder Adventures yet. I doubt they would work on the 4 fantasy projects at the same time. Pathfinder Adventures & CRPG, Pillars 2 and possibly Tyranny DLC.

IndiraLightfoot Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 A grand, nay epic, space vampire saga! Imagine if Vampire: Bloodlines and Mass Effect had a baby. It's never been done before (or...?).

Infinitron Posted October 24, 2017 Author Share Posted October 24, 2017 It's almost certainly the same game in both ads. They're unlikely to be hiring Seniors for two different projects at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoraptor Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Reading far too much into it. UI position, you want to take the unique differences between PC and console expectations, input devices etc into account to get the best for both. Environmental artist? You want console expertise as anything that the consoles can handle a PC certainly can. If it were a programming position specifying console only it would be more significant, or even if we still had the more PC distant Cell or PowerPC based consoles, but this doesn't mean much for whether there's a PC version or not given that both PS and Xbox are using AMD Radeon/ x86 systems that aren't much different from their laptop APUs (though they're considerably better at playing games than APU laptops, of course, and far worse at running Office).

AwesomeOcelot Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Maybe they decided to develop separate UI for different platforms like a sensible developer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's best to invest in a companies technology frameworks in such a way the many projects could make use of the tech. Best to have as broad of experience to properly lay the foundation for things to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blodhemn Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I'll always keep my fingers crossed that Obsidian finally snagged the green light on an Arcanum sequel.My feeling is that it's a spiritual successor to an Arcanum or Arcanum/Fallout hybrid. Pretty sure it's been mentioned to be a new IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jozape Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I feel like this game has been teased forever now but I still don't know what it is beyond people who liked the humor in Arcanum and Fallout should appreciate the humor in this game. So eager for a reveal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
