For all your hate for Disco, I doubt they would like to make a clone of it for the very same reason they wouldn't do tb/rtwp - despite warm media reception, it's seen as outdated as other isometric RPGs. For years now, people like that would tell you FNV was better than F1/2.
No joke. Why is anyone interested in a non-moddable Bethesda Game™ clone?
The same argument for Obsidian crossed my mind too, but the general principle is still that.
Obsidian can never approximate Disco, their writers are too bad.
Seriously? I missed that newspost. Who's expanding on the brilliant ideas of Disco Elysium? Please tag me in relevant threads.
Nor in making good RPGs.
At least they make RPGs though.
They wish they had the talent for it
All Codex-like snarky-ness aside, you can feel it in the air that people kinda miss a 3rd person open-world (mostly) free-to-do-whatever you want 100 IQ RPG. I bet you that people are willing to overlook initially it being unmoddable, as long as it has no bugs.
You meant to write "1st-person", right? 'Cause otherwise "3rd person open-world 100 IQ RPG" is one of the most common AAA formulas these days.
Inb4, Sawyer will reinvent the genre to be known as sawyeritysium.
How much does it cost to train a 3d artist? How much does it cost to train a good writer?
Yup, my questions were rethorical of course. There is also the problem of the current political climate that's predominant in the Anglosphere's liberal arts faculties in universities, which make it next to impossible for something viable and creative to emerge from there. By contrast, bringing up a 3D artist to churn out models is a simple matter, especially if you can afford to hire him as an intern at your company and have him learn from more experienced people. One thing is more a craft, the other is more an art, though of course there is crossover.How much does it cost to train a 3d artist? How much does it cost to train a good writer?
The unfortunate thing about writing is that competency cannot be determined quickly and visually. This is why book authors usually need a string of novels before their name gets to be bigger than the title on the cover.
I need some context - what is the cause for your butthurt? Are you imagining you are a writer, an artist or something else?
If rumors are to be believed it wasn’t for a long time. Parker led the team into dev hell, and it’s only since he was taken off the project that they have started to make any real progress.
Matt Hansen is the "I need to be replaced by a black person!" guy though.
