Obsidian is making Avowed, The Outer Worlds 2, Grounded, Josh Sawyer’s project and another one? Two? I think Sawyer’s game is as little as Grounded and I suspect also the possible other one/s. I doubt they can produce more than 2 AAAs in the same meantime, fortunately they have experience of contemporary AAA projects, like when they did New Vegas and Alpha Protocol, only this time there is no SEGA or Bethesda with impossible timelines.

Perhaps Sawyer’s game and the CriticalRole game are the same?

Perhaps the CriticalRole rumor is bunk?

What is that rumor

But the majority of Obsidian is on Avowed right now, correct?

2/3rds

Yeah, I expect Avowed is the main focus for the studio and once that has been shipped we will see people moving around and probably the vast majority of them moving onto TOW2.

some will move to OW2, some will stay bug fixers for avowed, some will be doing Avowed DLC (im sure there will be some (hopefully expansion size))

Mjae, If it is a hit I think most will work on expansions and a sequel.

A good chance for expansions but not right away for a sequel I think. Obsidian is still not big enough to handle two reasonably sized projects in full production. I expect a small team to do preproduction for the sequel and once TOW2 is wrapped up then the cycle starts again.

Yeah, we’ll see I guess.

As someone usually down on 1st person games I have to say I am really enjoying Wolfenstein 2. I mean, the gameplay is, for me, what I always feel 1st person is, namely running frantically, shoot n hope and never really feeling progress is down to skill. But I love the amount of cut scenes in the game and they are really well done. The story is actually pretty funny sometimes and nicely over the top. The soundtrack is great too and the graphics really hold up. IDtech really is a great engine.

That would be an absolutely amazing idea!.

Especially because Asajj Ventress is the only dark side user in cannon that in anyway returns to the ‘light’. She helped Ahsoka at the end of season 5 of clone wars when no one at the Jedi temple believed in her, aside from Anakin, and she had a couple of unmade arcs in the clone wars were iirc she had a family of her own. She is an amazing character and there is so much that you could do with her.

I have often wanted there to be more representation, or atleast better fleshing out of characters in the star wars universe that are the ‘bad guys’, beyond just anakin/vadar
