Obsidian General Discussion Thread

[Prime Junta]

Also Avellone likes Chee.

Squee.

They are both horrible imo. But, ymmv. (Compared to other people that left Bioware)

What did they do?

Mary is responsible for writing Ser Cauthrien, Sten, and the majority of Loghain Mac Tir. She also wrote the Landsmeet quest line and large sections of the Chant of Light.

In Dragon Age II, she is responsible for writing Merrill[2] and Varric Tethras.

She wrote Vivienne and Varric Tethras in Dragon Age: Inquisition.[3] She also wrote, along with Sylvia Feketekuty, the mutually-exclusive quests In Hushed Whispers and Champions of the Just.[4] Mary wrote In Hushed Whispers.[5]

Sheryl Chee was the writer for Dog, Leliana, Wynne, Oghren and Cullen.[1]

She was also responsible for the Magi Origin, as well as the Broken Circle and Urn of Sacred Ashes quest lines.[2]

Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening
She wrote Oghren, Sigrun, and Velanna.[3]

Dragon Age II
Sheryl Chee was the main writer for Isabela.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
She is the writer for Blackwall and Leliana,[4] as well as for all multiplayer characters.[5]

They're not great writers, but as far as Bioware goes, I wouldn't call them bad.

I personally can't stand DAII Isabella, Leliana and Merrill (ranks among worst Bioware charachter ever for me), but as I said your mileage may vary.

All the xbox studios had another meetup!

 

[McPlusle]

I can't wait for Tim Schafer to find a way to drain all of MS's resources

 

[LizardWizard]

Fargo wasn't invited :D

 

[Infinitron]

Or maybe he just wasn't in the photo. Kyl Von Kull Does that look place look familiar to you?

 

[Quillon]

Wasn't there gonna be a big xbox event or something this month?

X019. That's next month.

Never heard of The Initiative.

 

[LESS T_T]

Fargo wasn't invited :D

His tweet at the same day, he was apparently at the other side of the country.

That's their new 4A studio whose akshun games will supposedly rival naughty dog's

The restaurant? Could be anywhere, but I doubt you’d find those plants outside the window anywhere near 14th street and 9th Avenue where Fargo was.

From Paul Kirsch's LinkedIn:

2019 - Unannounced Project
2019 - Cancelled Project
2019 - The Outer Worlds

So which of the states got cancelled?

 

[Nano]

Here I thought being bought out would help put a stop to Obsidian's constant project cancellations.

Obsidian had a ton of projects popping up. Not a surprise one got cancelled. Was probably early as well.

May this have something to do with Brandon Adler's change?

Maybe Saywer's Darklands successor got cancelled.

Nope, that just got started.

 

[Sailor Woedica]

Josh might release his slides but I don't think they record videos of workshop sessions.

The task is to nerf the player down

Balance above all.

 

[Atchodas]

I understand that Sawyer doesn't get it but you can also make combat more challenging to balance it out
