      This is Bethesda. Either they rush and it releases riddled with bugs or they don’t rush and it still releases riddled with bugs.

      They will absolutely release it full of bugs and further exacerbate their current problems. Their console sales are plummeting, I just read. This is undoubtedly a response to that. Trying to capitalize on the hype surrounding the franchise right now, so they’ll squeeze the developers super hard, put out a shitty product, and then will scratch their heads and blame the customer.

    Okay, gotta say, if Obsidian would be the ones to do it, as article suggests, then I’m interested.

        JE Sawyer made a mod for the game after it was released. That’s as close to more dev time as it gets.

    Obsidian is currently developing Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2 so it’s rather unlikely they’ll work on another Fallout installment.

    Microsoft (who clearly smelled the money after seeing the show’s popularity and related games sells hike) could have someone remake New Vegas. Just let it not be Virtuos…

    And most importantly, I hope TES6 and the next Fallout are not Xbox exclusives…

    I would love a New Vegas 2/Fallout 5 developped by Obsidian, or even a New Vegas Remake/Remaster.

    I’m down with Bethesda using up the end of Howards career for fallout. Anything to get new blood into the company for ESVI

        Yeah he’s said that the next elder scrolls game will be his last.

        It’s rare for Western game devs to be in the game until they’re 75.

    So maybe don’t do a mainline Fallout title. Have a post-apocalyptic city-building game, or some Fallout Adventure spinoff with a more linear story. Don’t hire nine women for a one-month baby.
