When Bethesda would come up with their own original IP, everyone would salivate over it. And Bioware, Obsidian's "big brother" are creating their own IP with Dragon Age right now. There's no reason why Obsidian can't do it, either.
KotOR - KotOR2
NWN - NWN2
Mass Effect - Mass Effect in Middle-East
Aliens - Aliens RPG (thankfully failed)
and now Fallout 3 - Fallout 3 New Rape
And Dragon Age - a new IP? I think it is more than clear that it is LotR rip-off
Alpha Protocol.
YOU FAIL.
Skyway's reference to "Mass Effect in Middle-east" was his dismissal of "Alpha Protocol".
Why? Because the very existence of Alpha Protocol disproves the "Obsidian has never created a new IP" argument. Apparently, having very similar gameplay to Mass Effect, despite ALSO having an entirely different setting, characters, storyline, etc., means Alpha Protocol is NOT, in fact, a new IP created by Obsidian.
It's fairly standard Skyway Logic.
AndhairaX said:Actually Alpha Protocol is based on Mass Effects engine. So basically instead of making mass effect 2 or 3, they are making a new setting using Biowares engine.
Is it actually based on Bioware's mod of the Unreal 3 engine?
