Bro, that's Obsidian Entertainment. Specifically Alvin Nelson and Chris Avellone...

Oh. The video game developers that have a penchant for not completing their stuff before releasing it causing a ton of bugs or lacking certain features that were planned in the first place. I speak of KotoR.

While it IS nice to have the developers of one of my FAVORITE GAMES OF ALL TIME give us a shoutout and salutes with beer bottles, you are quite correct, Ravenous.

As to popularity, I'd say we are officially no longer scum of the Earth, and now good old fashioned GARBAGE. WE ARE WINNING.

You mean the developers who constantly get screwed over by their publishers by QA and early release dates, but still deliver games on par with, if not better than, the games they're a sequel to/compared to? I speak of KotOR.

Nice. I wish they could work on Fallout 4 rather than Bethesda.

I believe anyone other than Bethesda should work on Bethesda franchises at this point.

While I'm an Elder Scrolls fan, I'd much rather have Obsidian on Fallout for sure.
Their writing is invariably extraordinary.

Obsidian focused more on character development of companions and NPC's in New Vegas, which Is why I love them compared to Bethesda which just focused more on the cool missions.

Obsidian (and the studios of their origins eg. Black Isle, Interplay, inXile) blow away most other games when it comes to character design and development, and overall themes and writing for the world. It makes for some deep, thought provoking and emotional experiences :3

This is not a Bethesda thread. Bethesda writing is also shit-tier.

I really love Obsidian. They are, like, tied for first place as game developers with Bioware.

New Vegas was just plain awesome.
