Grounded - shrunken kids first-person co-op survival game from Obsidian

[RickOmbo]

Game Pass Shovelware? Sure, why not, it isn't like 12 people are capable of making short rpg that tries new ideas.

The game looks almost exactly like something Brennecke would make.

He kinda looks like a preschool teacher.

 

[Trashos]

Well, we have always wondered what a true passion project from Obsidian would look like.

 

[just]

wouldnt be suprised if this is their most fun game in years

 

[Roguey]

Are you really not aware of the whole battle royale thing?

I was thinking in terms of single-player/co-op games. Armored Warfare aside, I wouldn't ever expect Obsidian to make a PvP game.

Another dent at PoE's 3 chances of being somewhere near actual development

Matt Perez project or nothing.

 

[polo]

This looks amazing, can't wait for this slum dunk.

At least with a children as main characters there is no chance in a universe of turning that one into Battle Royal and devouring Obsidian.

Acquire an RPG studio. Get them to develop non-RPGs.
Brilliant.

They said this game was in development before MS acquired them. Like Outer Worlds.

Well. That makes it even worse, now doesn't it?

they were struggling financially before the acquisition, cartoony survival shovelware could've helped them to stay afloat (just like Armored warfare).

It will be Lord of the Flies.

At least we're fast approaching the stage when someone like Infinitron will finally be able to score a job at obsidian as... well, pretty much anyone.

Imagine Infini-Sawyer historical yom kippur 1973 tactical crpg, turn based, with deadfire graphics. Sounds bretty gud, don't it.

Make it happen, we can all give you good references.

Game will be a Papers Please style sim about splitting threads on a, radically centrist, RPG forum.

In before biggest Obsidian box office hit

They cant , they dont have the budget anymore to modelize all those empty arab shoes in the desert.

This projects seems solely designed to be a failure. It's like, WTF are they blind, even people who like this type of game will hate this

Maybe this is money laundering

Great idea, horrible artstyle. Should have acquired Mouse Guard license for this and turned it into a proper F:NV/TOW RPG for the sequel.

 

[turkishronin]

hey guys at least there will be some fun mods

 

[Sailor Woedica]

I just realised that they might make cool skins in the game to dress up as Pallegina or Eder and Parvati! If they have that stuff then I'll definitely play the game at some point lol

 

[thesheeep]

This is the weirdest thing that happened in a while.

The "shrinking" premise sounds interesting. I'm just not into coop or online games.

I'm into co-op (co-op among friends that is), but even for me this game has to earn a decent reputation over early access before I try it out.

 

[Reinhardt]

Pallegina or Eder and Parvati

Who?

 

[Quillon]

I'm not into anything about this game, only thing slightly interesting is wildlife ecosystem they hinted at but I suspect its just PR talk, a light system at best and even if its there and fully realized it doesn't matter, tis a fucking kids game. If Obs were independent I'd wish this game to be a smash hit so they could use the moneh on RPGs but now it doesn't matter whether it a hit or a flop.
