Sounds good I guess I haven't been following it much. I hope Obsidian can write better than Bethesda though because Fallout 3 was very black and white. I don't mean choices but even mentioning stuff about Morals on the wasteland would be niceOB-47
Writing is maybe the only thing that was never Obsidian's problem. So yes, it will be.

[QUOTE="SAGE_OF_FIRE"]And yet it will be better than every game you've listed. OB-47

Doubt it. Edge said that they aren't improving on the problems of the original Fallout 3 but rather just adding content. It looks good but I reckon LBP 2 and Halo Reach will beat it

What? They rebalanced Special, improved aiming, made companions viable, brought DT back Etc. etc. etc. They improved near EVERYTHING about the gameplay where possible.

Like Assassins Creed Brotherhood, they are treating New Vegas as an expansion.GulliversTravel
No, they don't. They treat it as a sequel. Or are Vice City, San Andreas or even Fallout 2 expansions for you?

[QUOTE="Cerberuspledge"]Also Chris Avellone isn't the lead designer on New Vegas. Josh Sawyer is. He's more in the role of a standard writer for the game. The lead writer is John Gonzalez.SAGE_OF_FIRE

Yes this is true but Chris is the Sr. Designer, and Josh is the "project director". Of coarse this is all coming from wiki since I don't know where I can find an official listing.

Josh is actually both. Project Director and Lead Designer. The senior designer job just means that you are an experienced designer working on the game. It doesn't mean that you have any lead position in it. MCA did write several things (Including 1 companion). He's already moved on to a new project by the way. I hope it is with Sawyer so the gameplay will be right.

Also there are tons of modifications to the system in New Vegas. Everything was reblanced including the whole SPECIAL system. You can't just dump everything in INT anymore to max your charachter out early. Read up.

[QUOTE="Dead-Memories"]

it's still going to be good, i'm hyping it, but Obdsidian's Alpha Protocol didn't exactly make for good press either.

SAGE_OF_FIRE
That mess was a mixture of Sega pushing horrible ideas on the team, and the owner of the company trying to unusually control a project. Apparently most of the team moved onto Fallout once they were given the opportunity.

Nope, nothing of that is true. It was SEGA throwing them into development hell and only giving them a low budget to work with. They had to fire people because of it and it lead to the Lead Designer leaving Obsidian so he had to be replaced and several things remade. Also Feargus (the owner) had nothing to do with Alpha Protocol apart from his usual work. Also that dudes awesome. If you want accurate statements of developers to this that aren't pulled out of some ass look in google for Alexander Brandon and in the something awful forums look at the last pages of the Alpha Protocol thread. The random internet comment was pure ****
