"We have a whole big cool world idea that we can hopefully talk about soon. That is a whole new world, a whole new thing. It's being put together by Josh Sawyer, who was the project director on Fallout New Vegas, and Chris Avellone is involved."

There was some title they called internally... 7 Dwarfs (or something like that), I wonder if they are resurrecting that?

I would love an obsidian-made ultima 10, but it'll never happen.

Good. Now I can stop bitching about Obsidian not coming out with more original IPs.
Trying not to be too pessimistic, but the game's not out yet.

I like Josh Sawyer being in charge of projects. Hell, I'd rubber stamp it if he offered to lead the war in Iraq.

:rage:

Oh well, at least it looks like Sawyer's in charge, which means he might be able to stem the tide of Avellone's derp.

IP, aka setting, not game.

The camera was never so bad in any of their games, you just need to adjust the settings in options. I bet most the people who bitched about NWN2's camera either had their impressions tarnished by the default setting, or were foolish enough to never change it. The only issue with it was hilly areas where the camera did not automatically zoom out, and thus had to be re-centered all the time.

These fellows don't feel cool unless they hate Obsidian with all their heart and soul.

Let them!

For every fan there must be a hater- without darkness, light is worthless. It is when our opinions collide that our greatest energies are freed, just like the atomic bomb, or matter and anti-matter.

I'm expecting either a masterpiece or a terrible failure -- there is no middle ground.

They are in talks with Atari. It's not running yet but possibilities are high.
Just the possibility of this makes me want to fap. :smug:
