Eurogamer: "Obsidian could have restricted its ambition to inheriting Bethesda's game engine and turning out more of the same, and most of Fallout 3's sizeable fanbase would have been quite happy. That it's gone to the trouble of developing both the series' narrative and it gameplay mechanics speaks highly of the studio's attention to detail."
A new Fallout New Vegas mod adds rideable horses to the Mojave, turning it into a true Western gaming experience.
Josh Sawyer, a Fallout series veteran, has certain conditions to be fulfilled before he could potentially start making another Fallout.
Microsoft ... just do one thing right?
You got Obsidian. You got Bethesda. Just make it happen!
Give free reign to Obsidian with higher budget and no restrictions (i.e deadline, metacritic score or wokeness)
This would be nice but they are trying to pass Avowed as a next gen rpg while at the last minute doing a gut job and a large delay

Then on the back burner they still got outer worlds 2 3 yr old trailer:
https://www.youtube.com/wat...
avrowed from 4 years ago
https://www.youtube.com/wat...
they said there working on both games years ago 0 have come out which is not good.
I would love it too we got the las vegas team on the fallout ip again but right now it seems there is something bad going on over there.
Now larien studios right now was kicked out of hasbro the whole wizard coast situation so give that team the fallout ip.
@just_looken
You are trying to trash Obsidian, yet want the studio to work on New Vegas 2 ?
@Sciurus_vulgaris
I know it hard for n4g users but read my links they themselves based on feedback delayed the game for a whole combat over hall
They even said after 4 years the graphics we saw are not finial they are "alpha stage"
https://x.com/klobrille/sta...
So i did not trash them i stated a fact this team has 2 games in the works one that is hidden and the other is currently getting a new combat system and graphics overhaul like halo got after that game play reveal.
Go ahead and say its a good thing after 4 years to redo the graphics/combat on a AAA game with M$ backing because to me that is showing there is something bad going on behind the scenes.
That being sad yeah i would love to have the fallout nv crew make another fallout game because outer worlds one was short but still a solid fun title.

"Give free reign to Obsidian with higher budget and no restrictions"
It´s not that simple. Fallout is a Bethesda IP and Todd Howard´s creation.
Free reign means that Sawyer could do whatever he wants in that universe. Such freedom could put both studios at odds given different creative views.
I don´t think Swayer would like MS giving unrestricted freedom to other teams to mess around with his Pillars of Eternity´s universe either, so I think it would be nice and respectful if he´d approach Todd himself first and share some of his ideas for a possible sequel to New Vegas, before going out making demands on the internet to make somebody´s else game.
Fallout is not Todd Howard's creation. Bethesda bought the Fallout IP. Josh Sawyer also isn't making demands, he's just answering a question.
You got very little idea regarding gaming before Xbox 360 era.
Fallout is the spiritual successor to 1988's Wasteland, which came wayy before Todd Howard started making games (1995) and was created by Interplay, which later spawns Black Isle Studio, creator of Fallout 1 & 2, where Josh Sawyer also joins few years later. Black Isle Studios becomes Obsidian and Sawyer goes to direct Fallout New Vegas, arguably considered the best Fallout game.
"Free reign means that Sawyer could do whatever he wants in that universe."
~ Yea that's exactly how we got New Vegas, and we want that to happen again. Period.
Take a moment to appreciate the wisdom & history porkChop & RaidenBlack have kindly imparted upon you despite the amazing ignorance of your statement.
It wasn't bad, but I didn't like the direction Bethesda took the series with Fallout 4. New Vegas is definitely my favorite in the series (Followed by 2), and would love to see them do another game. Another thing is Larian also spoke interest with the IP and that would be awesome.
Larian would do it so much justice, obsidian as well. I'm the same. I liked fallout 4 but holy hell was it dumbed down. Some stuff just wast interesting enough ie settlements.
An isometric spin-off from Larian and a New Vegas sequel from Obsidian will just be too good to be true ... and it all depends on Todd Howard
Fallout 4 is also way worse on the base version when it was first tossed out beyond the bible of issues those dlc's made the horrible drop rates go away.
I had ammo factories on each run the you got the custom robot's that made packing these so much easier.
Still so dam sad that the starfield robot's even the ai path finding is way worse than F4
I’d love to have seen what New Vegas could have achieved if it had a proper development cycle, it had a better budget and Obsidian were supported more by Bethesda
The game was great regardless but seeing they had to cut content because of time constraints along with all the idea they talked about concept wise, it would have been even better than it already was.
Microsoft need to put Obsidian on Fallout, Bethesda just don’t have the time anymore.
Microsoft won't allow that smh, they'll can it after a reveal trailer then cry how they have no games lol. Seriously tho that would be dope, they should give vegas the fallout 4 treatment update visuals a bit and a 60fps patch I'd definitely play that too. Fallout 4 has been hella fun
BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.
It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
9/10 from Eurogamer is good enough for me.
They might be crazy , but a 9/10 from them is worth a lot more than a 9/10 from places like IGN
That is odd for them I was expecting around a 7-8. Pretty supprised here to say the least.
Yeah I remember them Giving RDR a sub 90 score. They were like the only ones who did it.
But f*** this. Only review that counts in my book is the Gamespot one.
First it was Civ 5, now this. Damn, damn, damn.
