People just associate Avellone with Obsidian. Not everyone is an ironic neurotic about them developers

J_C said:Still, he was the senior designer of the game. Meaning that he made feedback to the devs, participated in the development process and so on. He was not the lead designer, but this doesn't mean that all he did was writing a few characters, then taking off his vacation. And as you said he made the DLCs, and he did a pretty good job with them.
That would actually be my guess.Country_Gravy said:Couldn't it be selling well because the DLCs are really good and people that haven't bought the game are now buying it because of word of mouth from people who have had the game for awhile?
Andyman Messiah said:Yes, and that's because (as far as I understand it, at least) most of the DLC is content, or revolves around content that had to be ripped out of the main game in the end, because Obsidian is too ambitious and too slow. See: KOTOR2.
Alright then. Loosely revolves it is.IronicNeurotic said:Resolves. Ulysses story was in the main game. But since it became too much he was written out. MCA then decided to adapt it for the possible DLCs. There was NEVER a Sierra Madre, Big Empty, Lonesome Road in the main game before the DLCs were worked on.Andyman Messiah said:Yes, and that's because (as far as I understand it, at least) most of the DLC is content, or revolves around content that had to be ripped out of the main game in the end, because Obsidian is too ambitious and too slow.

Was that ever actually confirmed?
Bethesda basically did them a favor by allowing them to play in their sandbox, why should they give them extra money?

Will you believe me if I post you a video interview with MCA himself saying that he was a senior designer on New Vegas?IronicNeurotic said:J_C said:Still, he was the senior designer of the game.

No, he wasn't. He was on as a writer.
Yeah, I like NW, but I don't see how is it old-school in any way.Flying Spaghetti Monster said:By the way, fuck you faggots who are calling New Vegas "Old School".
I'd be surprised if they did.Xor said:Yeah, I wouldn't expect individual employees to get royalties from the games they release. I'm pretty sure that's the industry standard - salaried employees, corporate owns all the rights to everything. I would still be very surprised if Obsidian didn't receive some kind of bonus for sales on NV.
