Xbox Game Studios Stupidity Hate Thread Game Pass Edition

You can say about Obsidian's output what you want, but at least they released four games under Microsoft, and a fifth is on its way.

I wish Avalanche would make another Mad Max game.

No you don't.

We saw with Rage 2 that Avalanche couldn't manage a project like Mad Max today.
They needed id Software to salvage the FPS elements, but the rest fell short.
Mad Max, Avalanche's best game in my opinion, is elevated by its driving, physics, and art, none of which Avalanche was able to replicate.

And then there is the elephant in the room:

That was still under Privat Division.

Under Microsoft they released:
Grounded
Pentiment
Avowed
Grounded 2

I only heard good things about Pentiment and Grounded seems to have its fans.
So I would say Obsidian is the most productive studio in Microsoft's current roster.
Considering the competition, not a tall order.

And they were all shit, destroying whatever goodwill and prestige the company once had.

I wouldn't worry all that much.

Not only does modern Obsidian lack the skill, dedication and passion to make something like Alpha Protocol (or New Vegas, or Mask of the Betrayer, or KOTOR2), but they obviously have no wish to make any such games anymore.

Both Outer Worlds and Avowed felt like games they were forced to make because that's what the Obsidian of old was known for, and they were written and designed to spite the audience. What they seem to want to make is faggot sims like Pentiment or shitty multiplayer slop like Grounded, which resonates with their moronic female workforce.
