    If someone goes through a conversation without hitting the critical nodes, the fault is with the designer.

    Another AAA game: https://www.obsidian.net/jobs/open-positions/design/content-design-summer-intern


    This one is probably Josh's "heavily stylized" 2D game, "2D Art/Concept - Summer Intern": https://www.obsidian.net/jobs/open-positions/art/2d-art-concept-summer-intern

    Pillars of Eternity was the first mistake.
    But where it all went completely wrong was the decision to pursue a Pillars of Eternity sequel instead of Tyranny 2, the obviously vastly superior CRPG.

    On the upside, I'll have a lot of fun hating on whatever shitpile Obsidian decides to grace us with next.

    Tyranny has the virtue of being Bronze Age-themed, which was cool.

    Was never really an option because they don't own the IP, though, and relations with Paradox broke down.

    “Relations with Paradox broke down” is one way to put it.

    “Feargus swindled them and spent their investment on a completely unrelated project” is another.

    They're also going to make adaptations of family films from the early 90s.

    Boyarsky and Cain aren't directing Parkerrim. It's assumed they're still directing their own project, the most logical choice being TOW 2.

    Sawyer Elysium will be a walking sim. But yeah, looking at what inXile is making as well, it appears that party-based RPGs with a budget of more than a million are now Owlcat and Larian exclusives (though HBS may be a dark horse with their potential White Wolf game).

    I refuse to believe that. He likes Hitman so maybe Sawyer Elysium is about social stealth or even better like Dishonored.
