Already thinking about the sequel with Micro$oft budget, eh? :D

 

[Dodo1610]

The game is supposed to be out within 12 months what are they writing at this point aside from the manual.

Abandon hope all ye who enter here.

Obsidian QA lead retweeting some shit by antifascum is disappointing

They've been workin' on it since before Deadfire shipped probably. The DLCs were taken over by Soykel (who is also working on this) and Kirsch.

You'd think that with insanely positive response Private Division would be willing to pour some more money at least for the mod support.

 

[Makabb]

Watching the gameplay video again, I have noticed the faces have similar appearance to talking heads from Fallout.

They'd be more willing if they knew they could do sequels with Obs also but its a strange situation; I remember something like they could do sequels without Obs(?)

It definitely is weird to be doing a "bethesda-like" but saying

to mod support from day one.

Besides the narrative quality, how bad is the lefttard lecturing in Pillows of Eternity: Dumpsterfire? I will definitely play the game, I just want to know if I should plan on buying or pirating (you can sue me if that hurts your feelings).

Hi Mekebb, the artist for Fallout 1 Leonard Boyarsky is also doing the art for Outer Worlds!

Yea I knew they looked Fallouty

Thats your target audiences of the two games.

How are they simmilar anyway? Other than being faces. The first looks better and says funny things. And is voiced by Ron Freakin Perlman.
The second is so generic it might be from a thousand other games.

Source for Scokel working on TOW?

It's mostly faggotry in the form of your companions.

I took Fairfax's word for it, you'd have to ask him since I can't find anything myself.

Aight, couldn't find any confirmation either and Carrie's answer kinda discredits that.

He said he is still on Deadfire on twitter.

Scokel used "we" in a (now deleted?) tweet talking about TOW, so I assumed he was on it, but he later said he's "still on Deadfire".

Added few names to my original post about who's working on the game:

https://rpgcodex.net/forums/index.p...-leonard-boyarsky.119594/page-19#post-5883695

And since there's a 3rd project going on at Obsidian put some of the names into a different group since there's confirmation about their whereabouts.

Honestly the biggest danger to Outer Worlds is that it's getting hyped as this Bethesda killer when in reality it's a mid-budget game that's bound to have some serious limitations. Hub world instead of open world being one, characters and animations looking like it's 2005 is another, and so on.

I guess the extremely fabulously optimistic option is that it becomes a smash hit and then papa Tim and uncle Leo get fifty trillion of Microsoft dolla for the sequel without too much corporate meddling.

Pretty sure VtMB had better characters and animation in 2004. So TOW's animation is 1998 levels at best.

Except even Fallout's talking heads had better animation. So it's 1993 level at best.
