I mean I'll get it eventually, even though I really want it now. But these kind of games have proven time and time again that they're broken messes on release and require tons of patches. If it's at comparable to Bethesda games that is.

Great to see it actually has come out pretty well. Bodes well for more later with Microsoft that will be even better.

Awesome news, though I expected it. My faith in Obsidian is high. :)

Can't wait to start it, though it'll be after Cold Steel III.

Obsidian is a pretty top tier developer when they arent hurting for money and rushing towards awful deadlines set by their publishers of years past. Im really excited to see what they can do now that they dont have to worry about whether they can keep the lights on.

At least this time they don't have to worry about Bethesda fucking them out of any royalties because they only got an 84 on Metacritic instead of an 85.

That isn't how royalties work


"Unfortunately for Obsidian, Fallout: New Vegas currently has a Metacritic average of 84, a single point below the average that would've earned the company royalties on its product. "[Fallout: New Vegas] was a straight payment, no royalties, only a bonus if we got an 85+ on Metacritic, which we didn't," Obsidian creative director and co-owner Chris Avellone told one Twitter user.

It's all in whatever contract you sign. Obsidian is a small time developer, they don't have a whole lot of weight to throw around and were just happy to be involved with the Fallout franchise again I'm sure.

Fallout 4 wasn't abysmal, but it was pretty bad, per bethesda standards.

I still remember my first hours of playing it. Started on survival. Progress pretty well and get some loot then get BSOD. I just laughed and thought "Oh yeah this is a Bethesda game". I guess that was on me for choosing survival in a game riddled with glitches

That quote seems to indicate that there were never going to be royalties, only a bonus paid out by the publisher if it got over a certain score. They weren't screwed out of anything here

Remember how beth forced obsidian to release new vegas early when it looked like it was shaping up really really well.

Literally sabotaged the game so theirs wouldn't look as bad in comparison/hit their target metacritic goals.

It's more stable by virtue of the fact it isn't using Bethesda's buggy ass piece o crap engine.
