Todd Howard and Bethesda are still seething
Todd Howard and Bethesda are still seething
Why were they keeping us from kino?
Ok
Bugthesda didn't want Obsidian to get in the way of them making one of the worst Fallout games ever, that being Fallout 4.
obsidian releases a game that is somehow even more broken and buggy than a standard bethesda release
terrible reception
mid reviews
proceeds to shit out mid slop again and again
hurr why won't they let us make another fallout game they must be jealous
Todd always liked Obsidian, it was the other executives who had the problem.
Seeing how Outer Worlds turned out, no more Obsidian Fallouts was probably a blessing in disguise.
Noooooo, they paid off reviewers to give it a lower score just so that they didn't have to pay a bonus!
The fact that people are surprised that a publisher/developer that was established from the act of fucking over their original head developer act like slimy corpos is baffling to me.
You know I used to think the whole "Bethesda seethes over how much NV mogged them" thing was some bullshit made up by salty Fallout fans but after watching the show I think they were right all along.
Why would Bethesda be against sharing the IP? They don't have to put in any effort and can recieve royalities on any profit the company that makes the game would make.
Bethesdrones keep saying this shit but even with a crash issue, New Vegas still has a stronger following than Fo4 and Fo3. The second season of the tv show takes place there lmao why do you think that is?
Pride and fear that it will diminish the value of the Bethesda brand if others can do their thing but better.
Todd Howard and Bethesda are still seething
20 years and the devs of NV are still talking about it
but ITS ACTUALLY BETHESDA that is still seething
They can destroy all of the West Coast lore all they want with the show it doesnt matter
Fallout as a series is a complete story and has a ending
the plots setup by F1 and 2 are tied up by New Vegas, New Vegas doesnt give a definitive ending to the Wasteland but leaves you on a ''life goes on'' note
NCR is at their all time height but how long will it last, with the many problems emerging that mirror the old world
Ceasars Legion, the newest power emerging in the waste prove themselves formidable foe but will they outlive Ceasars cult of personality
old factions like the BoS and Great Khans are fading winds in a greater landscape, fully commited to live the same life they did as when they first emerged into the wasteland, they will be left behind by the progress the country is making
many great dangers that may come and change the world is we know it,like the Siera Madre cloud, the tunnelers from the divide, the resting nuclear warheads or some old world threat like House emerging, its all left to your imagination.
in the end, F1/2 and NV are a perfect trilogy with a great open ending, its what they have been trying to tell us
You have to let go
Or that they'll fuck it up and also diminish the brand
I never got the "Todd howard hates obsidian" thing when Todd Howard was the reason why Fallout New Vegas exists in the first place because he really liked their work enough to promote them to a full game.
The second season of the tv show takes place there lmao why do you think that is?
To destroy the legacy of NV or whatever stupid shit New Vegas fanatics tell themselves
After seeing how dog shit the last decade of Obsidian games has been I'm pretty sure Bethesda dodged a bullet
Although I was also always in the "New Vegas is overrated" camp and think it's shit compared to contemporary RPGs and given how buggy it was the whining about metacritic bonuses is a little pathetic.
New Vegas still has a stronger following than Fo4 and Fo3.
It does not, NV fans are just more vocal since they're insufferable. I can give you actual numbers on this. Not only does FO4 and 76 for that matter have more concurrent players than FNV, new vegas also has less mods than FO4 and even original Oblivion. If the community was so strong this would not be the case. FNV is the superior game but NO ONE gives a shit about it anymore in the grand scheme of things.
It's too much of a pain to get working for most people. Everyone wants plug and play, even if the end result of putting in a little work is superior.
I honestly think that after Skyrim something happened at Beth/Zenimax that fucked up the company and they have been deathly afraid of anyone else doing “elder scrolls” besides them.
I also think the new Oblivion remaster was a warning from Microsoft basically saying that “WE own the IP and WE can get ANYONE to make ES if you fuck up!”
Why doesn't Obsidian just make its own stuff?
new vegas also has less mods than FO4
This doesn’t really mean anything, in fairness. Fallout 4 has an assload of mods, but they’re all a load of ass. It’s a real pick-and-mix of retarded bodyslide presets, janky framework mods that add nothing, cheats, magazine retextures featuring AI-generated porn, and Brazilian-Portuguese translations for the same.
they'll fuck it up and also diminish the brand
Wasn't Starfield mostly subcontracted by the Bethesda dev team? Well, their worst fears came true kek.
Because they need someone else's work to be noticed. Kotor, Neverwinter nights, they can only build off someone else
They tried with Avowed. Didn't go well. They can't sell shit without a big IP name.
Part of the reason why it was so buggy was because Obsidian had no idea what their ship date was.
Todd Howard is going to shit all over New Vegas in the fallout show season 2.
I don't think the studio that gave us Fallout 76 has any fear of that
How come Feargus is rarely ever mentioned when he agreed to all Bethesda's terms all while knowing his team my not even be up to task? They released an incredibly broken game it's still in a broken state after making their last release near Skyrim launch. I still like the game but people just some how forget that Fallout NV was not launch ready. Obsidian needed money and they took on near impossible tasks isn't KOTOR2 still considered unfinished?
those lines for Fallout 3, 76, and New Vegas are all at the same place pretty much. Fallout 4 was an extremely hyped up launch and yeah there are a lot of mods but anyone who isnt a normie console-only dweeb knows that New Vegas is overall a better game in terms of quests, writing, characters, etc.
Shit still stinks no matter the color
did you even play any of these games or are you just another shill?
paid reviewers so they didn’t have to pay employees
I don’t understand
