I have officially left Obsidian Entertainment to accept a sudden opening as the Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor at Hogwarts.

(The first part is serious, but much love and well wishes to my fellow devs, good folks one and all.)

 

No idea what he's unto now, but this was quite unexpected for me. Welp, now I'm not sure I'm interested in KOTOR3 by Obsidian :/

Bad news for Obsidian. And gamers, I think. I was hoping for a lot more games like Pillars etc.

That's an interesting development. I wonder if it was actually his choice to leave. Maybe he thinks he can work freelance for all the kick starter RPGs? I do hope it's not, say, health related (either his own or Obsidian's financial health).

(Also you know KoToR 3 is a pipe dream, right? ;))

Kotor 3 won't happen. Disney has scrapped all of the old EU, so it is completely out.

I hope he's still in gaming. If he's joined InXile gaming then that's okay.

 

If he's joined Bioware then I am excited but cautious of what that brings him.

 

If he's joined with Hideo Kojima and an entirely new company then I will **** my pants and scream for joy.

Hoping he joins Beamdog or the Numenera developers.

I was more hoping he would end up replacing either Mac or Chris Schlerf for NME.

Jimmy you're having a field day with this.

 

Evil person.

That would be neat. I would pay a lot more attention to NME, tbh.

I doubt he will go anywhere near EA. If he does I will play through Colonial Marines from start to finish.

I will hold you to that.

:lol: Jimmy, that pretty much sums it up. Man it's been ages since I listened to Air Supply but... T_______T

 

In all truth we'll see where this goes. I'm naturally the type to jump on the this boat is sinking, ahhh the sky is falling but it's probably not a surprise to anyone that Avellone's a big point in the standard I hold game writers to.

 

On that note:

 

 

My terrible sense of humor is a coping mechanism. :crying:

Ohh yes. I will do it too. I was dumb enough to buy the game for the xbox 360, so I do have it.

At least then we could say that A:CM was part of some sort of good cause.

Hehe not sure if I see it that way. More like some moron up in Norway blabbered his big mouth too much and had to play the game to repent.
