Obsidian told us point blank that we shouldn't expect their A game, and they like making middle of the road merely okay games.
I'm not looking for the kind of game that I could make myself. I want a quality product that some team finely honed into the most perfect thing they could.
But no one makes that anymore, near as I can tell.
Who even would? The kinds of people who make those games are basically extinct in AAA studios, relegated to indie dev at best.
Plus, why even bother hiring talent? Just hire india at a fraction of the price, get your sweet baby-equivalent firm to churn out slop that "gamers" will eat up anyway, and rake in your profits.
It's going to be a long, long time before we see a AAA passion project again, if ever.
Obsidian should never make anymore games period
Neither should Bethesda.

I wouldn't give a fuck if it was a company that was only known for making doo doo/ good but not great games.
Obsidian made a couple bangers. Deciding they're just gonna coast it out and rest on their laurels ain't gonna cut it.
'k
because the obsidian of today is a skinwalker
Avellone should rise from the ashes.
