Obsidian General

What can check the privilege of a man?

Alpha Protocol was their only good game.

Apparently, making utterly forgettable RPGs no one will remember even existing in a year.

Remember when Obsidian was known for well written, ambitious and somewhat broken/buggy games? Quite incredible what complete financial independence did to the quality of their products.

Nope. Storm of Zehir was nice though.

Fuck you. Alpha Protocol is basically the blueprint for non-linearity every game should follow and KOTOR 2 was proof you could give Star Wars depth.

Swayer was always a numale faggot.
Only after he kicked everyone with a shed of sanity out you could truly see it.

everything you like will turn to garbage, there's nothing you can do to stop it.

The original Kotor was objectively a better star wars game, it even had an ending and everything. AP was a mess.

True enough. What really gets me is that not only has he made two of the most boring, uninspired narratives in RPG history, but he also somehow managed to make the gameplay equally boring as well.

I'm not one of those guys that says IE combat was good, but at least you could have fun breaking it, and with a few mod tweaks fighting mages could be very exciting. PoE on the other hand is a fucking chore, doubly so because nearly every fight is just trash mobs.


Nigger, the first KOTOR was just one long pandering session proving just how creatively bankrupt BioWare really are.

They were given the opportunity to move the date back a few thousand years and have complete freedom from established lore and they rehash the movies.

The most insulting example of this was the R2D2 stand in. In KOTOR 1 it's just there because they need a droid duo, of which one has to be a trashcan on wheels, and serves no other purpose other than to pander, while in KOTOR 2 its given character and agenda beyond its established cliche.

And that's not even getting into the Mary Sue protagonist of the first game, or the fact you're saddled with a furry.

Sweet dreams friend

...

I didn't know how said furry is a potential follower until several years later. I don't have any regrets about that.

Yes, and it's still a better game then Kotor 2. Doubly so since obsidian had a complete game and related assets to work from.

Fuck it, HK47 is a bro thru and thru.

You mean unlike every other mary sue protagonist of just about every other star wars game? Exile was just living wound in force that all sith and jedy fear and fight over a common shmuck, right?

Bravo Obsidian. Bravo Sawyer.

...

If there's one thing kikestarer has taught me is that publishers are the only reason games get released in a somewhat finished state at all.

Who?

Avellone quit because they refused to use any of the content he wrote for PoE. What they did use was some bits for two or three of the more tolerable companions.

Initially Avellone didn't really talk much about him leaving Obsidian, but as time went on he started opening up about it and you can tell he didn't leave on good terms and is pretty mad about it.

You for real? I'm just sorry they didn't get rid off more hacks.

t. Avellone

Fuck off Sawyer.

Shouldn't you crawl back to codex with the rest of the overrated hasbeens?

Obsidian really have produced a lot of trash lately.

New Vegas is pretty much the cutoff point. Didn't even realize it's been six years already.

lol retardtheist kid

do you like any writing in games?

South park wasnt good?

PROBLEMATIC

how much of that was actually obsidian, though?

Story in games are like plot in porn. Only cucks care about either.

at least they release the shitty bad games on gnu+linux. I wish more people would do this.

I like stories in my lewd american mangas, gives my heart a boner

you're wrong, but who said anything about story? I asked about writing.

Every time I hear this I have this panicked moment before I remember that Josh Sawyer exists and Chris Sawyer didn't somehow wind up working with Obsidian.

...

Fuck, I forgot about that, fucking publishers are a double edge sword

??? wasnt it just her eyes?

Cummiefornia

This is true, considering star wars is just fantasy in space for kids who drool constantly.

in what way do they ever work for the customer? why are people so hungry for corporate dick?

...

...

What IS it with people named josh and being faggots?

...

only one josh iv met was not a faggot
you may be on to something…

It's a name so generic that they try acting different to be unique.
