I’d rather Obsidian be assigned to a Fallout game over InXile.

Obsidian had The Outer Worlds, is working on Grounded, Avowed and the Josh Sawyer game.

It would most likely be an honor for the Obsidian staff to work on Fallout again. The studio loves to work on other people’s IPs if you look at their past.

ahh obsidian already worked the IP before and perfect dark is reboot with big names devs.

i mean look F76 Made by new studio and launched at weak state.

it simple i will take already good formed studio over new built up studio

3 million is like the bare minimum a game needs to sell to be just about viable as a IP in this day and age. It’s not Borderlands big for example, which is in a similar situation. I guarantee that if the team did another IP it would sell at least that and Microsoft would own it 100%, so the fact The Outer Worlds has sold 3 million doesn’t mean that it is a slam dunk for Microsoft to continue with a IP that they don’t 100% own.

You could pull some vets from any WRPG to join Bethesda Dallas to do the Remake dont get why it has to be Obsidian I dont want that to become the Fallout studio

and that is on all platformers. now take out PlayStation and NS you left with only xbox and PC. now it’s matter if time if MS think it’s worth it or nah to invest in IP

Yeah agreed, let’s not get carried away here. Sea of Thieves is a massively successful new IP for example, I’d say TOW was a decent success.

I wonder if it was just us assuming that MS owned the IP and that a sequel was already in development by Obsidian. Or was there actually something said by reputable sources too?

no one said it will be fallout only studio. also they got teams, they can make new ips and work on Fallout. also it will probably be spin off like new vegas and not main ones

I felt pretty certain that Microsoft was going to make an Outer Worlds 2. After hearing that they don’t own the IP…who knows what’s going to happen. for all we know Avowed could end up becoming such a critical success that they end up working on a straight up sequel after Avowed 1 with The Outer Worlds team.

We really don’t know as much as we think we do :expressionless:

If you want to listen to him, Zhuge said it was but no one else said it has from what I have seen. Everyone assumed it was but the news that T2 still has publishing rights has muddied the waters a bit for me as it is just not Microsoft’s style to have someone else handling a project for them.

Of course Xbox might be OK with it and is happy for T2 to handle the publishing rights but I would be surprised.

I have zero trust in 2k/Take Two in finding a developer for The Outer Worlds 2, guess that game is off the table for me :confused:

They can’t as Microsoft holds the rights to the IP. All T2 can do is publish the game but only if Xbox makes it.

yeah i think they tried before but after two years they still have issues getting publishing rights ? there is something going on here i mean Psychonauts they bought publishing rights straight away from starbreze

wait isn’t MS own the IP but the publishing right is owned by them ?

I think with Psychonauts, the publisher was in financial difficulty so Microsoft saw an opportunity and bought the rights. I am surprised that Microsoft hasn’t bought the rights to The Outer Worlds as of yet, but it is a case that both sides need to agree to a deal I suppose.

I hope that Obsidian would never be wasted on a remake.
