Obsidian Entertainment CEO on Possible Fallout Game: "I Would Love to Make Another"

Obsidian Entertainment CEO and founder Feargus Urquhart stated that though the studio isn't working on a Fallout sequel, he'd love to make one.

Would love another Fallout by Obsidian.
Microsoft, make it happen!

[Crows90]

Don't you worry. Microsoft will take care of you. Just wait...

[lelo2play]

Did Microsoft harm you? You poor thing...

[Crows90]

Nah. I'm immune to their crap. It's the harm they're causing their fans without complaint that's concerning. Carry on being used.

Come on Microsoft, get these guys to do spin off games while we wait for the main numbered games, they should use the spin off games to take it outside the USA. Take inspiration from the mod to come out and make Fallout London.

Also they should cycle between that and Elder Scrolls spin off games, just set it in a different region. There's lots of places than just Tamriel and that's just what we know of.

Akavir would be a good place to explore as they have 4 new races there not seen before or if they really want to go "out there" how about Lyg, a parallel version of Nirn which I'm guessing has a alternative version of Tramiel where the possibilities are endless.

You would hope that a FO NV 2 is in development - it should've been greenlit the minute Obsidian and Bethesda were under one roof.

If not, then it's almost a copy paste of the Ubisoft situation where they are leaving obvious cash on the table.

[-Foxtrot]

I'll be honest I'm surprised Outer Worlds 2 was green lit and not a New Vegas spiritual sequel after being under one roof now.

[Yui_Suzumiya]

They've been wanting to do this for over a decade. Maybe now they'll be able to after they finish The Outer Worlds 2.

[TheColbertinator]

Obsidian would create a masterpiece. With their top team, Bethesda's Fallout license and Microsoft's massive finances I foresee this possible title selling past 20 million.

[Flawlessmic]

Any xbox exclusive game would be lucky to sell 10 million because of gamepass, and even 10 sounds like to much.

What you would will likely hear is 20 million people played it on GP lol.

[tay8701]

Yah that ain't happening. The best selling game ever for Xbox was halo 2 and that didn't Crack 9 million. With gamepass, it's very unlikely they will ever come close to numbers like that again for a game.

[Bathyj]

I don't know if Obsidian is going to make a Fallout game again because Microsoft don't want to make Bethesda look like shit. They kind of have a bit riding on their reputation to carry them.

[TheColbertinator]

Bethesda should stick with Elder Scrolls. That way they can actually release the next one this century.

[-Foxtrot]

If they got Obsidian to handle Fallout and Bethesda to focus on Elder Scrolls at least we aren't waiting years for the next instalment

Fallout 4 came out in 2015, by the time Elder Scrolls VI releases it will be 2025, then the next Fallout game will be fully into production and most likely not come out until 2029/2030. It's insane.

[Shiore2u]

No thanks. Outer Worlds didn't instill confidence, it was mediocre in just about every way. Obsidian isn't the same studio it was when it made New Vegas. Most of the talent for that left long ago.

[shinoff2183]

Outer worlds came out before ms acquired them. So outer worlds 2 might be better if ms allows then to get the budget they deserve.

Outer worlds I thought was good but should've been better.

[Shiore2u]

Budget wasn't the real issue with Outer Worlds. The writing was bad. The characters were bad. The gameplay was bad. The exploration was shallow beyond the settlements. The customization was bad. Conversations were mundane. The concept was a single very on-the-nose joke on repeat that kept falling flat, "le living in unregulated capitalist dystopia". May as well just play Fallout, even a Bethesda made one and find a better experience in practically every way.

There's a reason nobody talked about it a mere month after it's release with barely any mod support after so many years despite so much hype behind it. A sequel imo won't make a difference, a bad idea is a bad idea. Should have never gotten beyond the internal pitch meeting.

[Father__Merrin]

New vagas was excellent would love to see another

[shinoff2183]

Hell yea. Obsidian did the best newer fallout imo. Fallout new Vegas.
