I want Obsidian to be part of ZeniMax Media Inc. and have exclusive rights to develop future Fallout games. That would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet

You do know Bethseda owns the rights to do that right?

Do you know who owns Bethesda?

Freemasons and Tares, you can tell by the winged disc symbol in their logo.

And this is big enough news to need two topics why? The First Fallout games where how many years ago? And are just how outdated? Plus doesn't Obsidian now work under Bethseda who is the publisher? And Arn't the Later Making Fallout 4 in anycase?

  Outdated ?   Because they're not FPS games with shiny graphics or don't have any awesome buttons ?

Maybe he can stop Obsidian from making RPGs like Dungeon Siege III.


Is DS3 considered an RPG?

Not trying to be snarky, I haven't played the game and based on the trailer I thought it was some other genre.

DSIII is an H&S button masher

It seems quite different from other Action RPGs I'm a bit more familiar with such as the various games in the DA, ME, Gothic and TES series.

Perhaps I was looking at the wrong trailer, but does DS3 have elements like quests, NPCs, towns, factions, etc? I've never played any of the Diablo games, so perhaps I'm lacking in a frame of reference for this type of gameplay.

Its a Diablo/Torchlight like game which is what I've always thought of as action rpgs.
It has quests and towns and NPC quest givers, IIRC it has some factional type elements but I haven't finished it and I'm not sure how deep they are.

The news about Cain joining up with Obsidian is good news, but wake me up when we get a turn based game with a somewhat complex system.

NP, I'll be checking to see if hell has frozen over yet and if that happens I'll be in touch about Obsidian's new turn-based RPG engine. :devil:

It's an action game with RPG elements. There's only two real towns, and most quests amount to "go here and kill this for me". The player does get to make choices though, and they do impact the ending.

Interesting...

As for DSIII, how good does the story itself get? Also, do they say Jayne Kassynder every two lines like they did in the demo?

No. She becomes less relevant for awhile. When she is relevant again they manage to mention every four or five lines at worst. Several characters go so far to refer to her as Jeyne. Just Jeyne.

The main plot is nothing special. I doubt anyone will think they saw the second coming of Planescape: Torment after finishing it. Some of the side quests do a better job. The overrarching plot in Stonebridge presents two of the better decisions to make; and the only story I found truly compelling. The frequently referred to Jeyne is not the deepest nor most interesting antagonist ever, but she is also not one dimensional.

The main issue with DS3's plot is it rarely stops to explore its own lore or any implications of your characters' actions until it's over. Imagine if DAO was all about building an army to defeat the archdemon with most side quests and character development stripped; except for Redcliffe and Loghain.

I think it's a fun little game--especially with friends. Just don't expect Mask of the Betrayer.

Greatest News Ever... Period. This is good news for classic RPG fans. I can see Obsidian becoming top creators with the legend himself. I want to see: VtM: B II, Fallout, Planescape: II, Alpha Protocol: II, whatever else Obsidian can make, just get out there and make some magic happen, Obsidian!

It was mostly Leonard Boyarski I believe. Pure Tim Cain is the following, according to him as well: Fallout: 1, Temple of Elemental Evil, and Arcanum. Anyways, I believe he did work on some of it since Activision ordered the ToEE team to help out the VtM: B team. Just don't quote me on it because it was from some stuff I read a while ago.

Hey...now this is cool news.

I'm really hoping for an Icewind Dale 3. Since that's never coming out at least there is Skyrim!

Arcanum 2 would be sweet, that's a setting that I thought had far too much potential for one ultimately somewhat obscure game.
