obsidian was focusing on their own stuff
I know the new vegas fans will be excited to hear obsidian working on fallout. But to them I ask, have you played an obsidian game recently?
I actually haven't. They did outer worlds and I don't think I've heard from them since. What have they put out that's unsatisfactory since then?
I know nothing about Avowed so I cant say that its good or bad., but its the only game I've seen that has had any criticism from Obsidian.
Obsidian has a fairly solid record, and are at the very tippy top of any list of people I'd want working on a new Fallout game.
