So, HR 2 that would be released around 2013/ 2014 and it would have been developed parallel to Pillars. Interesting.

Only way I see that happening is if Bethesda's new studio is making it. It's one thing to accept that there'll be no New Vegas 2 and another to watch helplessly as Bethesda craps all over the west. #rage

I feel dirty for giving that a page view. Your fault.

Look at the implied time-frame of that post, they thought they were going to get New Vegas 2, they got the Fig campaign for PoE 2 instead.

Obvious clickbait etc
I think they've hired some publishing specialists in the not-too-distant past. Duraframe300 could tell you.

I never expected that, honestly. It would've been pretty interesting to see Obsidian's take on Deus Ex.
One thing we can be sure of is that we would've had a game with worse gameplay than MD but also far better story and characters (easy job, given that they're quite bad in MD), and maybe more reactivity.

MCA would've been a perfect fit for DX. The original was all about turning things inside out and upside down, taking a premise and pursuing it to the bitter end and beyond. Just what he so excels at. DX:HR was the complete opposite; even DX:IW pulled that off better. Didn't even bother with the last one.

I wonder what game was that didn't sell well that forced them to make Mankind Divided an internal project isttead of giving it o Obsidian,Thi4f maybe?
Couldn't they at leastgive to them now that Eidos Montreal will be making crappy Marvel games for the next 10 years ?

This next-gen console Unreal 4 game... It's going to be for PC too... right?
I bet it'll be VTMB sequel... Paradox just acquired it's IP and VTMB got big fanbase. Plus you got guys who created it working for your business partner, Obsidian... it's a no-brainer.
Cain and Boyarsky both being leads kind of gives it out too...

Deus Ex from Obsidian would probably fail miserably among the fans, because it's gameplay they wouldn't be able to deliver, but then again, judging by the sales, no one really asked for Human Revolution 2 (aka Mankind Divided) either, and another perspective could've helped the franchise.
And since SE sold Eidos in slavery...

The original games couldn't deliver gameplay; the fans are used to it.

That's an often-repeated canard but it's still bullshit. The original DX had excellent gameplay. It was just a little different from what the look and feel led you to expect. DX:HR is shallow and uninspiring by comparison, despite cover mechanics and all that commotion.

Are you crazy? Original Deus Ex has shitty awful gameplay. Some of the most floaty combat gameplay there ever was and poor char building.

I forget, did he explicitly say Vampire or World of Darkness? Because in lieu of that Werewolf the Apocalypse game announcement it might be even more intriguing.
