Obsidian would "love to do Fallout: New Vegas 2," chat with Bethesda "all the time"

CEO Feargus Urquhart of Obsidian Entertainment would love another crack at the gambling capital of the world revisiting Fallout: New Vegas, or just the series in general. Fallout: L.A.?

They'd definitely stick to the West Coast, so it would "probably be The Boneyard," which is the city built apart L.A.'s ruins. There are plenty of obstacles right now, like platform limbo.

I really hope they do...i would rather like new vegas 2 than fallout 4.

[fluffydelusions]

Don't say that. Surely we can have both :)

[Despair666]

i was just about to edit my comment to say just that :)

[Jek_Porkins]

I liked New Vegas well enough, but I'd be really interested if they did a Star Wars RPG. I thought KOTOR 2 was pretty good, rushed but good. If they had a proper development time it could be great.

[Stoppokingme]

Agreed. Bring on KOTOR 3.

[Monkeycan8]

Obsidian has been talking about doing a new Star Wars game! so yea win win! :D

[Irishguy95]

Obsidian want to do NV2 and Kotor 3.

Please let it happen, if South park SoT turns out really good i'm sure other devs will give them a chance again and hopefully without giving them a ridiculous deadline

[KaBaW]

@Jek_Porkins
I approve of that statement. I'd rather have a KoToR 3. Great games.

[BanBrother]

That would be pretty cool. Next-gen games please. Fallout 4 and Fallout NV 2 (or name it after wherever else it is based) would be awesome. Still, they must be kinda sour after they missed the bonus for not getting 1 point higher on metacritic.

I received Fallout New Vegas for Christmas a few years back, but for some reasom I never really got into it, I can't figure out why. I guess I had too many games on my plate at the time. I recently bought the Ultimate Edition and I'm having a ball. Slightly glitchy, but it's a grand time. I just found out that Mr. House's actor is Rene Auberjonois! I'm a big fan. I looked at the voice cast on IMDB, and I was duly impressed by the roster. I do look forward to NV2. :)

[Heisenburger]

The soundtrack really blew me away more than anything else. I should go back and complete it...

I'm a big Patsy Cline, Katie Thompson kind of guy so the music absolutely thrilled me.

Going and slaughtering Ghouls whilst "I'm so Blue", or "Big Iron" plays in the background is magical for me, as I usually play games with my own music playing.

obsidean did a great job on new vegas, but one of my main issues with it was that the setting was beyond boring. it was just sand, sand, oh look vegas! oh nvm its separated into 3 tiny parts with like 6 npcs per section. lame. but gameplay + story was better than FO3. also if they do make another FO, go easy on the whole cowboy theme, its annoying.

[Knight_Crawler]

So you are blaming the develoeprs for the lack of RAM on the 360 and PS3 -_-

Some of you people compaling about games like Skyrim and Fall out make me sick - Bethesda did there best to make sure we get a descent experiance with the dinosaur tech that they haev to work with.

[Hydralysk]

You act like Bethesda HAD to release console versions. They are their own publisher, if they wanted to take advantage of the PC they could've done it by just not going for cross platform.

Also, would you call a save game bug that was omnipresent in the PS3 version of Skyrim that rendered the game nigh unplaybable making sure we 'get a decent experience'? They even withheld PS3 review copies so the bug wouldn't affect day one sales.

Back on topic FO:NV, was a great improvement on FO3 and frankly I'd rather see FO:NV2 than FO4.

[8bitHero]

thats an excuse for consoles, not for the pc version. modders shouldnt be the one optimizing the game for the PC because bethesda doesnt feel like it.

[Son_Lee]

Just could not get into New Vegas. And it wasn't because it was just more Fallout. Nothing about it interested me at all. I HATED the setting, characters, quests, etc.

Fallout 4 needs to happen next-gen. Fallout 3 is top 5 this gen for me.

[Saleem101]

Uh no its not better than fallout 3..

[SlapHappyJesus]

I definitely preferred New Vegas to Fallout 3.

I loved Fallout 3 when it first came out (and years following), but, after playing New Vegas, there was no reason for me to go back to it.

New Vegas improved on so many things. The writing was better, it added extra game mechanics, multiple story paths, etc. Not to mention it put more emphasis on the VATS system - adding more stat driven actions and overall just balancing out the system a bit more.

It just made Fallout 3 feel shallow and uninteresting for me.

I would love to see Obsidian handle another Fallout game. Perhaps with a longer development time this time around though. If they were able to make a New Vegas in just around a year and a half, I would love to see what they could do with a real development cycle (around three years).

[kma2k]

One of only a handful of games i have platinumed i absolutely loved nv & 3 i dont care what they come out with next I will have it!

[Eazy-Eman]

Currently replaying fallout 3 and it's still an awesome game! Hopefully fallout 4 is a next gen title

[Root]

I just didn't like the leveling up system, I liked it when you got a perk a level, not every two levels

Lets not forget the map was smaller and the inter linking missions at the end of the game would ruin the game for you if you made the wrong choices.

[RGB]

The only think Fallout 3 has is the environment, although the DLC was really awesome. New Vegas improved literally every element of Bethesda's Fallout universe.

Combat was better.
Survival was turned up several gears.
Quest options gave replay-ability.
More interesting side quests.
Unique weapons that were... unique!

Fallout 3 pissed me off so much, unique weapons were exactly the same as the standard weapons in appearance. Minus the name you couldn't tell the difference.

Can't wait for Fallout 4 or Fallout: NV2 or Fallout: LA. I'd take them all! :)

[FunkMacNasty]

Dont get me wrong, I'll be excited for the next Fallout, wherever its set, but I was really excited at the rumors that the next fallout might be set in Boston. In my Opinion Las Vegas and Los Angeles are far overused for videogame settings. If it was set in the Massachusetts area, I think it would do wonders for the game envornment. There are tons of varied ecosystems and terrain types around the Boston/Mass area..everything from urban city to quaint colonial suburbs.. there's ocean, plains, mountains, swampland, marshland, woodland, dense forest... I loved New Vegas, but it seemed like most of that game was Sand and desert, when compared to fallout 3.

[Tetsujin]

Fallout New Glitches 2

OT

I liked both 3 and NV equally (despite people arguing one better than the other), and I hope this time they can add some type of continuation after the main story instead of "ok that's it, reload a previous save." I understand why Bethesda did it (although I like how it was handled in 3 better with the Broken Steel) however there's those moments where we would like to clean up missed side quests without that nagging feeling of "you still need to finish the main story."

[MooseyXTC]

New Vegas is one of the best games I've ever played, I do prefer it over the first 2 Fallouts even, as far as everything but writing is concerned.
Still, if Obsidian were to make it, maybe they should find a better engine than the Creation Engine.
Skyrim is buggier than Daggerfall.
