Microsoft’s Xbox to Shift Obsidian Studio to New ‘Fallout’ Video Game

And then shut them down.

Sad. They have better games to develop than Fallout.

I can only expect it'll be as lifeless as Avowed.

Hopefully I'm wrong.

I hope they're using Creation.

Avowed on unreal is just completely lifeless and can't be modded in any real meaningful way. Fallout with zero mod potential will be horrible.

Microsoft had Windows 95, Windows XP and Windows 7.
Microsoft have a lot of things that they bought then destroyed.. Go Google Microsoft acquisitions Here

Look how many of those companies and software no longer exist.

Now my company is moving to Windows 11, I see all these problems and bugs because Microsoft company-wide actually don't understand the product that they support.

Go to your windows computer, go into the settings, dive deep into the settings.. The older the UI looks the more likely it's going to be actually in control of your computer.

It tends to be more functional too

Yep.

I'm hoping they just need the right setting, and going back to FO could do that for them.

Oh you know there were rumors months before this announcement. I'd be surprised if all of that was coincidence

More than 1 or 2?

Ok but the people that made the og games are on the team.

No if it doesn't sell $1B let half of staff go like with ID Software. Force remaining people to use AI and work twice as much.

I only watched playthroughs of Outer Worlds and Avowed, and I agree that they were mediocre. But Obsidian's isometric CRPGs Pillars of Eternity I and II and Tyranny were great. If they can assign the isometric writing teams to the first-person games it might work.

Welp this is going to be disastrous for the fallout series.

Fallout 2 wasn't first person. Lots of people remember who Yes Man was, as that was from New Vegas which you suggested was good. Do you want to go back and rewrite this?
