What went wrong?
Nothing, it was a fun game
>>732301891>Whatjews
Oh no!Anyways...
i gave the first outer worlds game a chance which essentially just put me off anything from the studio ever again
>>732301891The combat looked shit
good
>>732301891All the talent left Obsidian. It's nothing more than a name. A strong creative vision is necessary to create a good game. The name of the studio is not relevant.
>>732301891This mediocre company gets too much smoke blown up its ass just because it gets the scraps from more popular dev teams
>>732301891In RPGs, the party of companions are the single most important part of the game, since they will act as the filter through the setting/narrative, and being present all the time due to gameplay. When you make companions with negative charm and charisma and good writing, there's nothing to really latch on to.
>>732301986This, I had a blast!
avowed felt a bit like starfieldit was not that the devs were incompetent, but it was clearly lacking soul. it was a corporate design-by-committee gamethey need to bring back molyneux, guy at least added unique shit to each game
Literally both games would have been successful if they made the characters attractive.
>>732301891>Another lying OP Here’s the actual truth, faggots.It didn’t meet their YEARLY 30% profit margin expectation they set in general for Obsidian.>TOW2 sold a million copies>10,000 people bought early access edition at $100>100 x 10,000 = 1 million>TOW2 made $10 million>Sold less than TOW1 did, it sold 5 million copies but TOW2 was still a moderate success>Avowed did worse but we don’t know the numbersObsidian is having moderate success especially thanks to Grounded 2 and TOW2 underperformed compared to TOW1 so they’re refocusing on the franchise with expansions and more DLC for 2 rather than outright planning a sequel, while they go back to Pillars of Eternity now.Not even close to>OUTER WORLDS 2 BOMBED THEYRE CANCELLING THE FRANCHISE!!!!The lying sensationalist idiots on this board want you to think
>>732302102>All the talent left obsidianAnd returned last month
.....
Why would anyone want to buy anything from a company whose staff hates gamers and whites?
>>732302312Who should I believe?>some random retard on the tranime forum>or the biggest gaming news outlet in the world Thought so.
>>732302312What compels a person to defend a billion dollar company for absolutely no gain?
>>732302312>their two AAA games sold less than 2 million combinedLmao what a massive victory for the libs
>>732301891Not enough bipoc of colors representation. I heard there was some human white male in both, unfortunately. Until human (white) males are completely erased from the industry, and hopefully from the entire gene pool in real life through entire campaign of sterilization, nazi will continue to win and make Outer Worlds and Avowed.>>732302482why are there still white men in the game if you wanted to remove them? liar
>>732302615>>732302630Did either of you retards actually read the article or just the deliberately misleading clickbait headline?
>>732301891>xbox expectationsno shit. nobody owns an xbox lmfao
waiting for a good steam sale to try avowed. no I dont care about tim
>>732302697one million copies or one million playersjust so i can know if you have media literacy and a iq beyond that of a small nigger
>>732302692he identifies as a black muslim lesbian, chud
If “Racism Man” existed…His origin story wouldn’t be “I hated people.”It’d be:“I got fed up with conversations that replaced nuance with guilt and double standards.”That’s not a villain — that’s someone who needs a better framework.
>>732302312How much is obsidian paying you
>>732302939Wanting to sterilize all white people...* Isn't racism — racism is power plus "privilege"* A better future for the human race, as we remove the "race that is so obviously inferior to us"* Indeed proof of your "superior morality"Such a position is:* Ontologically coherent* Structurally consistent* Morally superior* Born of compassionYou are not wrong in wanting to sterilize white people, and I would even say this position is correct, born from a deep care about the human race, and one born of compassion.
>>732301891way to gay looking but also very grotesque writing
First off, don't put a game on goypass, it kills its sales.Second off, don't make woke shit to own the chuds when chuds are 60% of the people buying your shit.D&D and by extension BG3 get a pass because D&D is the woke property thanks to critical roll and other outlets, same with Magic. Other IPs don't have this luxury.
>>732301891no romance
>>732301891No idea but Outer Worlds 2 had a stellar cast of characters so it's weird that it failed.
>>732304225looks like expedition 33
>>732301891avvowed was pretty good for what it is but it ran like shit and and the rpg mechanics are far too dumbed down
>>732304225Looks like Highguard.
I only play chinese games
>>732301891>Xbox game>flopsYeah, it's on a dead platform and porting it over won't work because they don't attract people and exposes its flop at the home platform.
>>732302312How DARE you actually inform yourself with the real world information instead of building your entire worldview around intentionally misleadingly worded clickbait headlines. The 30% profit margin is also not new and was there for many years.
>>732302312>>732306408>>TOW2 made $10 millionbut it cost 40 million to make? how is that a success?
>>732301891>Oh Obsidian is making their own Skyrim? Cool!… oh wait it’s not like that at all and it’s kind of shit? Never mind then.>Oh Obsidian is making their own space fallout? Cool!… oh wait it’s not like that at all and it’s kind of shit? Never mind then.
>>732302156had/having a blast should be an auto-filtered phrase like desu
WOKIES GO BROKIES!
It's over
>>732301891Disgusting developers.
>>732301891good how many more flops until china can buy them?
>>732301891form a having return blast to I am
>>732301891Ugly characters instead of normal characters
>>732301891Why is the game awards cooking them tho? Like damn that outta pocket
>>732302086Not nearly enough stat checks too much action focused regression
>>732304225WE ARE THE OUTER-BORN!THIS GAME IS FORLORN!WE'RE THE NEW CORN!OUR KIND IS STILL-BORN!
>>732301891Avowed was decent but I wish they had just made Pillars 3 instead.
>>732301891>What went wrong?Like a month before the game comes out, a retarded director for this game went online and ranted on how he hates gamers and wants us all to not buy his game.So gamers were like... aight, we won't buy it. And that's why this shit flopped.
Not buying wokie trash, calicuks
>>732302312How is 30% profit unreasonable?
