Obsidian General Discussion Thread

Remember that the owners love promoting their pals, not necessarily the most qualified.

Omg how can you say that? Obs owners are so cute and awesome they make me squee, like totally.

{Do I sound enough like a retarded ten year old?}

That sounded like Sherry and Sailor Woedica fucking.

Seems like a really quick promotion.

Not as fast as Sawyer’s at BIS.

Extenuating circumstances there.

You mean the Microsoft middle managers formerly known as owners?

Well, 6 years from the bottom. Quick sure, but there have been faster. Also not sure if we're talking full big game or smaller project dlc.

Also as I haven't played POE2 yet, how was the area design on the DLC?

Varies from DLC to DLC. Some of them were really nicely done and you could see that they focused on it. Some didn't realy have much focus on area design (which naturally showed).

So does Outer Worlds mean Obs is done with traditional party-based RPGs?

Depends what MS wants them to do. Fallout: New Vegas wasn't the end of Obs doing traditional party-based RPGs so I'm not sure why Outer Worlds would be. They're just first person perspective shooter RPGs and those call for a different gamestyle.

Wut? Outer Worlds is party-based.

 

[mindfields]

Wut? Outer Worlds is party-based.

I mean proper RPGs not gayass first-person shooters with stats

 

[santino27]

Wut? Outer Worlds is party-based.

There are companions, but is there full party control in combat or is it just squad commands / special ability calls while controlling the PC? I don't consider the latter party-based, although I admit the distinction may be arguable.

 

[Sailor Woedica]

Bye, we'll all miss you! The Deadfire updates were soo dope!

 

[DalekFlay]

Depends what MS wants them to do.

I'm sure the big priority is a Skyrim style Xbox/Windows exclusive. Whether they let them do smaller projects too... I dunno. Microsoft does do things like that here and there, but not super consistently. If they do have them make another PoE or whatever I'm sure it would be a good bit different because the console version would be considered from day one.

everyone is leaving obsidian, soon it will just be josh sawyer and his harem of danger-hairs

OMG! Like totally, he was so cute and I'll miss him too. All the hugs and squees.

No idea who the fuck he was though.

He was their community manager. You could see him on most of their twitch streams etc.

 

[Infinitron]

I wonder who the new community manager will be. It's a nice job.

(inb4 Infinitron wants a job jokes)

 

[Prime Junta]

I vote Sailor Woedica

 

[Haba]

I vote anyone Microsoft HR tells me to vote.

 

[fantadomat]

I vote Sailor Woedica

I miss the chill guy that was here hyping the Vampire release. He even had a sense of humour,that is incomprehensible for a community manager.

 

[Sailor Woedica]

I vote Sailor Woedica

That would be super cool, but I have hockey camp this summer so I’ll be way too busy!
