Sorry, Fallout fans, but Obsidian isn't really interested in making New Vegas 2: After years of working on other people's games, the studio is finding 'joy' in doing its own thing

  • Obsidian has definitely gotten more corporate following the Microsoft acquisition.

    While I haven't played Avowed or Outer Worlds, from the gameplay videos they don't look very appealing to me. Too much "console style" FPS combat. I strongly prefer 3rd person for RPGs if we are not going with the classical top down view and turn-based combat.

    • I was a big fan of NV, back in the day, but I played quite a bit of OW1 and now a couple hours of OW2, and honestly I thought they were very okayish. certainly nothing I would write home about. I don't even know if I'm gonna bother playing any more of OW2, it just doesn't really interest me while I'm playing it.

  • They definitely went console-oriented, sure, but honestly why do we even need a nv2??? I know story reasons but then you get muddled with Bethesdas stories. Besides, the guys who made new vegas aren't in the same position, so itd be someone else with a thing they didn't make with even higher expectations. Just make something new. Avowed was insanely middling for me, despite beating it. They should have just made Pillars 3 at that rate.

    • That's a good point.

      A post-apocalyptic setting with a good story, interesting gameplay mechanics, well written characters, but not Fallout (as in the brand).
