the long answer ? NO
the short answer? NO

>>743231958
That'd mean not putting in any propaganda - which those without souls are unable to.

Their games will still sell well, because of all the soulless that can't oppose evil.

Probably will be better than anything Bethesda could do

Play the outer worlds 2, it will be that.

If they reuse the F4/76 engine: it'll be pretty good
If they don't: Complete fucking disaster

They can make one better than Bethesda
ik that much
and there's no other studio to do it
>CP2077 was barely a rpg

>>743231958
The question isn't if they can make a new good fallout game,it is if Xbox will survive until they manage to develop a game regardless if it is good er not

>>743231958
I got reminded today that when Outer Worlds was announced there was a lot of excitement for it too. Obsidian already had a reputation back then for doing what Bethesdon't after New Vegas. Then more and more footage of the game was coming out and people lost interest because it looked the way it looked. Still, it's hard to fuck up the Fallout aesthetic and hopefully they will work from F4 as a base which wasn't irredeemably awful mechanically, it just had really dull writing, quests, characters. If it's a whole new game though...

>>743231958
No.

>>743231958
They haven't made a good game since New Vegas, so I'm gonna say no

>>743231958
Haven’t played OW2 but the first one was genuinely good.

99% of people here who claim it was terrible never touched it.

>FROM THE CREATORS OF FALLOUT NEW VEGAS

This sentence alone is enough to get most /v/groids and normalniggers to shut their brain off and just buy the game
It doesn't matter if its good or not, people are going to buy it.

I’m carefully optimistic, they still have good talent in leading positions and while their own worlds haven’t been that good, using Fallout means that they have a good pre-existing lore base to build on. I’d be surprised if they surpassed NV, but they probably can create something better than 3 or 4.

no. they're americans.

>>743232623
This is such a genuine massive issue on /v/ and xshitter.
I can be talking about gameplay, fights, exploration, platforming etc all day but all the average /pol/roach thinks about is some modern youth haircut and the purple colour triggering him.
You can not have any conversations with these people.
Also from what I heard 2 is better than 1. Only played 2 so far and enjoyed it.

>>743232205
now post Starfield

>>743231958
>60% of /v/ is Bethesda vs Obsidian
>30% is Palworld vs Pokemon
When is this spam ending?

>>743232623
Eh, 1 had alright bones, but the meat on top of them was mediocre. The story was dull as fuck, most locations lacked personality (really only liked the space station early on), there were barely any memorable characters, guns were boring etc.

It was a game that felt like it should have been better than it was, but it just lacked stuff that would have made it memorable. At least the DLC was better than the main game because they clearly put in more effort creating background lore to their locations.

>>743232523
Outer Worlds is seriously bad even beyond looking bad. The first area is good if you expect it to be the tip of the iceberg rather than as good as the game ever gets. Nobody came away from that game excited which is why the DLC and sequel were turbo ignored.

>>743234026
I wouldn’t say it was the best game ever but I think it was worth playing for me, and I actually finished it and all the DLC unlike Fallout 4 for example which I played once for the institute and then dropped, never trying any DLC.

>>743232623
The gameplay's improved, and the addition of non-corporate major factions means that humor has more variety than just "capitalism amirite?!" of OW1, although that's still present. My biggest complaint is that I wish they gave you one or two more skill points on level up, the way it is now it feels like you can only invest in two max or you start falling behind in weapon damage, perk unlocks, and skill interactions.

>>743232623
I pirated and finished both. OW2 runs like shit as you'd expect from UE5, otherwise it's mostly the same as 1 but with more wacky guns. Both very forgettable games, I had to think for a minute to even remember how OW2 ended.

>>743231958
Fuck no

>>743232621
They made The Stick of Truth. That was pretty good.

>>743231958
I wonder what the odds are that we'll actually get to see a unique final boss like the Master or Frank Horrigan again, like a genuinely messed up byproduct of a nuclear apocalypse rather than "just some regular guy" like all modern Fallout games have.

>>743232623
Less than 30% of the people who brought that game on steam got the achievement for finishing it

been playing OW1
its OK. If everyone paid 0-20$ for games like this I think most people would be more satisfied.

>>743232205
the ship's AI was annoying

>>743231958
Bad mascot
Made me appreciate how timeless the pipboy was

>>743235134
That’s literally every game ever
I was playing the C&C remaster recently and like 50% of players have even beaten the 1st mission.

>>743231958
No. Every good Fallout game came out that way by accident due to circumstances outside of the developer team's control. Anything that you liked about them they would have "fixed" given more time

>>743232623
I touched it
It was boring and trite

>>743231958
Good fallout no
Better than Bethesda's yes

>>743232623
Game Pass was a buck when it came out. Everyone remotely interested tried it and immediately dropped it

>>743234397
Avowed did address that issue by handing out some skillpoints from quests too and of course the varied equip system.

>>743232013
>short answer
no
>long answer
nope

They can't make a good game period.

Not if they have the same writers who worked on outer worlds still employed.

>>743233151
>People would rather notice the warning signs and turn back than continue for a mediocre experience
What are you going to talk about with the mid gameplay, mediocre story, badly written characters except two who are okay, etc, etc
If people completely ghost your game and the only thing notable about it is purple hair then you're game is boring and bad and you're a fucking retarded shit eater
You tell me which universe you'd like
Ours where the game is a punchline
Any alternative where it lives in the bargain bin

Nobody got gamepass to play this 5/10 experience. They played it because it WAS on gamepass hence why the sales are so low

Tldr: Just because you can look past your wife's big nose, warty face and mole doesn't mean she's not ugly

Doom flopped, fallout can flop too, a brand name can only carry slop so far

>>743235464
New vegas was shit, only the dlcs were good

>>743231958
not without the old guard, nuobsidian isn't any good

I mean if its a serviceable time filler then it is what it is, right?

i liked, combat is fun, exploration could've been worse, if you just ignore all non gameplay elements

>>743232623
I played it and it was boring slop, didn't finish it because it was boring and didn't interest me enough, youre probably a jeet like most of the characters

>>743231958
yes. obsidian's problem is their original settings are fucking boring and shit. when they have to think of things in an existing universe context they work way better

>>743232205
Handsome fellas.

did i offend you? with my own mind? did that just happen? woah

>>743231958
Not at all.

OW1:

>main scientist guy literally inspired by Rick from Rick and Morty
>absolutely retarded premise and worldbuilding
>hamfisted "capitalism is le bad" message with no viable alternative being presented except for the Rick character hoping it'll work out for the best
>the primary spaceship (the one that's the neutral zone between all the planets) makes no sense and they just wanted a "space Switzerland' kind of thing
>the world feels entirely constructed rather than having the concepts flow from one another
>gunplay is absolute shit, just point and click, cover mechanics non-existent, stealth is borked and unviable
>lockpicking mmmmm
>companions are completely bland and uninteresting, ESPECIALLY when considered to old Black Isle and Obsidian ones

I played the game twice. Once as a talker kind of person (my usual go-to when I play Obsidian games because the NPC writing is the strong suit) and as a violent retard, and it was a very miserable experience. I pirated it though, so it's not like I wasted any resources on it, just time.

>>743231958
Why do people keep forgetting that game studios are not unchanging entities? The people that made FO:NV are mostly gone now.
The majority, if not all, of the people making this new Fallout game will not be people that worked on New Vegas. Maybe they can make a good game anyway (probably not), but if they do it won't be because of some old Obsidian magic.

americans forgot how to make good games

>>743235832
>we don't need any more of those joykill chuds. We need carefree nih- I mean funhavers!
>but you can't be racist or sexist, or kill child npcs

>>743232523
Outer worlds sucked so bad, but they got lucky releasing around the same time as fallout 76, so everyone sucked it off to make bethesda mad

>>743231958
I hate this fucking character's design and the whatever name the style is called so much. It actually turned me off from even watching gameplay of this series or having any interest in it at all. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

>>743231958
Now falloutkeks will have no excuse if this game will be dogshit despite le heckin ebin obsidian taking the wheel.

The writing in 2 is bad but 1 is an abomination of every leftist twitter account you can imagine. To wit in 1 (not pictured) the only sensible character takes a sudden and sharp turn into "i'm not saying its aliens, but its aliens" conspiracy territory just to make her suitably wacky as she was blatantly being too sensible beforehand and the writers needed to correct but didn't have time/couldn't re-record her previous dialogue lines.

>>743237912
Lets not forget the parvarti quest

Not only are you stick with a jeet, you're stuck with an autistic lesbian jeet and literally have to whisper affrimations in her ear while she talks to her crush

Find whoever wrote that quest, blacklist them from the industry and have them report for public flogging

>>743237428
Lol being poor and retarded goes hand in hand

>>743231958
With how shallow the rpg mechanics were in that game I doubt it
Half the perks in 2 didnt even work properly, not that you could tell because they didnt give you a stats screen IN A FACKING RPG
