Obsidian General Discussion Thread

[Ninjerk]

I asked him if it was for Pillars or a new project

Instead of giving me an answer he favorited the tweet





So, which conclusion to draw...

Martin eh

Same name as the dude who played Dracula on Buffy. Yes.

Joss Whedon fan eh

Not entirly. Season 2 of Buffy is one of my favourite shows of all time, but after that he began the road to decline. Personally think he's both overrated by fans and underrated by haters,

Anyway, Obsidian discussion topic

I quite enjoyed S3 of Buffy, and Angel/Dollhouse, so i am not sure Joss work declined at that moment.

It started in Season 3. I didn't say Season 3 was bad as such. Also I liked Angel as well. That said I liked the first three seasons when Greenwald was showrunner a lot more than the last two.

(To very shortly elaborate. I think in a few parts of season 3 and especially post 3 Whedon lost the ability to execute things well. Instead he started doing random spontanous shit and everyone congratulated him and defends it with WHEDONISMS)

Dollhouse I disliked. Sorry.

 

[naossano]

About the ability to execute things well, i wouldn't say that any of the seasons of the three shows that i've seen were perfect.
All of them had huge flaws, but also great highlight, which lead to an overall enjoyement when mixing the two.

Not remotly what was meant but k' (incredible generalized actually). Your opinion and all that.

Anyway, Obsidian Discussion Thread. i'm done going off-topic and this would need a much longer answer anyway.

I loved Buffy 2-5 back in the day but I tried to watch that shit a few years ago and couldn't stand it. Show doesn't age well into your 30s.

Jon Burke left Obsidian today. Big loss, imo. Wish him all the best.

I'm squishing Eternity bugs as fast as I can! I blame DA:I for stealing my attention for too long

Good thing he's just a programmer like Brennecke.

He will still be working on Eternity for a while externally.

Hi Feargus

Whatchudoin...?

 

[Athelas]

So I guess Obsidian's next RPG will be about a fabulously dressed man battling through his midlife crisis.

A Gaider-playing game?

Either that or Tobias Funke.

It is a big loss because he is a good friend and a super fun guy, in addition to being a dynamite programmer.

He's also a California boy, so he might come back someday. Regardless, we wish him all the best and we will miss him.

Wait. Nothing against Brennecke, but why am I like him exactly? And why no love for programmers?

Hi Jon.

And hi

It's a "good thing this person who enjoys Dragon Age Inquisition isn't working on the gameplay, much like the other programmer who is bad at playing games" joke.
