Ugh, Avellone re-tweeting that shit too. unfollowed!
Between not really making very impressive endeavors in the realms of RPGs lately (anti-IE IE successor, asian mmo, and a fucking wargame), and pandering to the Paris Hilton non-gamer journalists and drama queens, Obsidian is losing face quickly.

I thought inXile would have nothing on Obsidian. They've already surpassed by miles.

No

They're both terrible currently.
I'll reserve judgment until Obsidian actually made anything new. I am just unwilling to look past Wasteland 2 flaws to call inXile a better developer.

I was refering to parts of the whole post, but fair enough.

Does 'the other side' even care to know what the RPG Codex is?
And, as usual, the appalingly ignorant gathering place for hateful ciscentered rape culture enablers, the RPGCodex, provides their transphobic/cryptopatriarchal take on the matter

In the old days, I'd get a brofist for this.

What's happening with Obsidian btw? I just checked the official forum and they seem to have wiped out any secret project threads (except the next kickstarter speculation thread, which is not a secret).

I know Obsidian is working on the Kickstarter game, Tank MO and iOS card game. Also they have taken some outsourced MMO job. They have confirmed they are planning another Kickstarter game. Did they manage to pitch any other game recently?

Chris Avellone and hard don't mix though. See Arcanum playthrough.
Was really expecting a dick joke after the first sentence.

How dare you to question Our Holy Lord MCA virility?! Not only it's always hard but by just bestowing his holy eyes on any woman, MCA gets her to orgasm immediately and spontaneously. He sometimes does it en masse on a public transport, causing an chaos, disbelief and confusion. Authorities try to hide it, calling it a "flash mob" but we know The Truth.

Were you expecting a troll here? All I have said is true. Begone ,foul disbeliever!

But now I ask you, what was it that destroyed Lord Avellone's Arcanum playthrough?




That's right.






It was a dick joke all along.
