They're greedy, as all companies are. With Starfield seemingly having a major leaning back to 3 styled dialog trees and RP perks, if it sells in a major way,
I'm genuinely concerned that Starfield isn't going to do as well as previous games and they're going to axe all of this right back out with ES6. This was really the only thing that got me remotely interested in Starfield, I'll be bummed if we're back to linear skill-trees and lack of stats because they'll need a scapegoat for why Todd's magnum opus didn't reach the market shares it could have if they hadn't pissed all their goodwill down the toilet.
I can't even say they'd be guaranteed to make better RPGs when the perks in The Outer Worlds were far less interesting than the ones in Fallout 3 & 4, let alone the ones in New Vegas (that goes for a lot of aspects, even the weapons and quests were uninspired in that game).
It was a game that felt more like a tech demo for an inevitable bigger sequel. Still, Outer Worlds was such a badly written game that I hold almost no hope for anything Obsidian produces ever again. Maybe if they're stuck with a setting with more edge like Fallout it'll taper down their wacky tumblr-infused writing but I find that unlikely.
The Fallout 4: New Vegas team are woke furries/fags though.
The faggotry got so big the Fallout Capital Wasteland mod team cut ties with them and decided to make Project Mojave as a big "fuck you".
This has been a major problem with many big Bethesda mod projects. The Beyond Skyrim teams are chalk full of this, I think there's a couple threads on here that cover it. They seep into projects and infuse it with all their political drivel and use it as a way to accrue e-fame and pitybux, while stamping out any similar projects that rise up. Capital Wasteland project seem like they're smart as hell and have already released the Point Lookout DLC for 4, so I have faith in them seeing their game through to completion. At this point, it's better to just assume any major landmass or content mod is filled with the worst kinds of social justice and furfaggotry on the internet as the rule, rather than the exception.
Great, why does New Vegas have to continue to be a lightning rod for freaks?
Politik : The Game, attracts people who are obsessed with IRL politics.
TBF, PM was made in a few weeks and intended to be rushed out.
It always read like a big middle finger to me towards the F4NV team, which I think also had drama with the guy who created their geckos and a few other assets to be used in the mod, I don't remember exactly what though.
"Look, we did in two weeks what you faggot trannies couldn't do in five years. Get fucked."
