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

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.
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.
