    For all those who are asking, yes -- you can holster your gun!

    Based on the reddit, you don't have to hold your gun while walking around.

    Being related to Fallout 4 is a master marketing move. Fallout 4 has sold insane amounts of copies.... And there are a ton of youtube videos about it with millions of views... All of those people are going to get interested about it.

    That's what I'm thinking. The uber-colorful planet is the one without terraforming. The other one will probably be more gritty, judging by the screenshots.

    And all of those people will be pissed about 76.

    Yeah, for once I'd say Obsidian got their marketing exactly right.

    Now the only thing that could go wrong is gameplay. And the story. Or the writing in general. Maybe an insane amount of bugs.

    I'm sure they'll manage.

    Are any of the leads from New Vegas still at Obsidian? And/or working on this game? Or is it an all-new team or whatever.

  9. It doesn't really matter IMO. They know what made New Vegas great and will repeat some of it here. But Tim and Leonard will make sure it has enough Bloodlines in it too, and reactivity that we didn't even see from New Vegas. Watch and see.

    Not even the people that made great games back then knows what made them great(just look at most kickstarter games), what makes you think the people that didn't work at them does?

    Deus Ex is an RPG that features stealth and action. Prey is more of a System Shocky 2-esque game so it depends on how you classify that, but it is not a straight shooter.

    Charles Staples was Lead Area Designer on FNV. He is working on this game.
    Scott Everts was Lead World Building, also working on this.
    Brian Menze was the Concept Artist for FNV, also working on the game.

    My list is far from complete. Too many devs don't update their LinkedIn and the staff photo from 2017 is kinda useless at this point when people are shifted from one project to an another.

    I would put the work force around 60-100 people (not full time though, some of the workforce have moved on to other projects and some work on all projects). Deadfire support team and DLC team have decent amount of people. The 3rd game requires some staff members as well.

    No need to act modest. Just be careful you don't get this account mass-reported and shut down

    Who wouldn't really. After Fallout and Arcanum, it's like I've been friends with him for decades.

    Around 40 million, to be a little more precise.

    Fallout 4 could be much better role-playing game and still sell by the bucketload.

    I dont remember anything great about area design in FNV, world building or anything else for that matter. I remember retarded set up for the plot and patented Obsidian blandness. So, yeah, nothing to get excited about.

    It was obvious from the trailer: he lowered his gun after he shoot that robot.



    I did not say anything because it's fun to watch retards bitching about unrelated bullshit.

    I am satisfied with just a Fallout New Vegas in space. Really.
