Question: Which game is Adam Brennecke currently directing? Is it the third project mentioned during the Outer Worlds coverage?
(Aside from Outer Worlds and Obsidians Skyrim)

I think it is the Skyrim game he is directing. Josh doesn't want to direct a bigger project. 3rd game is either Josh's game or Pillars of Eternity 3 (which I think they will hand out to Badler to direct). Badler's LinkedIn still has him working as project director.

Obsidian's Skyrim better be code for Sawyer's historical first-person Darklands-like RPG.

Skyrimlike is Chris Parkers project unless he’s co-directing.

And BAdler was director on the Pillars DLC. IIRC he hasnt updated his profile since.

Are you sure Parker is directing the project? He has been the executive producer lately.

Yes, Badler was the director on Pillars DLCs which is why I think they might hand him Pillars of Eternity 3. Adam has been working on Pillars games for an eternity and most likely wants to work on something else for a change.

 

[glass blackbird]

Why on earth would they even make a Pillars 3? Deadfire was a flop. Makes no sense

 

[Feyd Rautha]

The fact that it sold poorly makes it good

So, ok, there was an Xbox MVP event at the Microsoft campus in Redmond and they were all given these t-shirts by Aaron Greenberg (the head of Xbox marketing)! Look to the left of Terry Crews!

Éder is officially an Xbox mascot character like Alex is for Minecraft!!!!


(btw this might be old info but Klobrille (the person that leaked that Obsidian was selling to Microsoft forever and ever ago) has some stuff on Xbox Game Studios growth and I thought you all would be interested!



They also made this super cute profile on Obsidian!

Microsoft seems hellbent to prevent another Xbone vs. PS4 disaster at all cost.

Not 100%, but yes.

That's it, I'm done. I'm writing to Polygon right now that Josh Sawyer is posing as a teenage girl on a nazi white supremacist forum RPG Codex.

Prepare your anus, Josh. ResetEra is coming.

 

[2house2fly]

Based on the Deadfire DLC I hope Badler is doing something

If only he'd allow himself to have that much fun roleplaying... the games we'd get.

Yas, totally love! But Éder should also totally have an Aloth/Iselmyr assist trophy!

 

[Sailor Woedica]

Sorry to double post but I saw Josh retweet this and I know you all love gossip lol



I wonder what publisher they're throwing shade at?

Bethesda.

 

[Roguey]

Max Landis's report on the Fallout 4 launch party would indicate they were better off skipping it anyway. No self-respecting dev would like it, they fill it up with celebs and LA trash who don't even know what a Fallout is. (though in NV's case it was Las Vegas trash)

 

[SpaceWizardz]

My money is on Ubisoft/Stick of Truth.

No because Nathaniel Chapman ("pedrothedagger") had left Obsidian by the time that was released.
