The rumors of Obsidians death have been greatly exaggerated!

Funny thing is, the very people that say MotB is a good RPG game are the very ones that say Trokia Games made good games. Troika Games made shit games and thankfully went bankrupt. Obsidian Entertainment deserves the same fate, especially after their first game.

But Jedi_Learner, you're talking about people, not companies! Saying Obsidian deserves the same fate as Troika Games just because you can't forgive them for KOTOR II is kinda silly, don't you think? If Obsidian goes down, all those people that worked for the company are out of a job! Don't you have a heart!? Take your hate elsewhere!

Save it hypocrite, I know you're reading.

'To make a better comparison was KotOR2 better than KotOR? Yes.

Was NWN2 better than NWN? Yes."

No.

Yes.
Kotor 1 and 2 were both on even ground in terms of quality imo, both were pretty shit.


NWN1 was better then 2 but it still sucked

I'm not buying Neverwinter Nights II again just so I can play an add-on. Regardless, MotB uses the same poorly optimized engine and the same crappy combat. I tortured myself through the combat in Arcanum, you really think I want to go through something like that again?

Well you Sir suck if you are not willing to make a few sacrifices to get a chance to play one of the best RPG experiences, sins Troika died, then maybe you should go hang out with a more simple crowed like the HALO fanboys.

You would fit right in.
Omg lets all play the TEAM UP ON THE GUY WHO STANDS OUT GAME

omg someone doesn't want to waste money on fucking shit nwn2 and its worthless expantion.

Face it the only reason why you all like motb is because vince gave it a good review, so either fuck off or kill yourself.

Is there a good reason why I shouldn't ban you for being a dick?
I'm usually a good member. I posted in anger and didn't mean what I posted. Your posts were not drivel. Sorry.
Tell me that you understood what I said, promise to be a good boy and respect my wishes, and I'll be more than happy to leave you alone.
I've read this topic again. I understand what you've posted, and I promise to be a good boy and respect your wishes.

I was bullied into apologising. His constant sucking up to Obsidian Entertainment makes me sick.

I guess my strong criticism of KOTOR 2 and NWN2 wasn't enough. I should have publically announced that I will neither play another Obsidian game evAr again nor speak to an Obsidian developer (other than in anger, of course).

Oh noes! Someone doesn't like Obsidian Entertainment OR Troika Games! This person clearly has no taste. He must be a Bethesda lover!

my theory is that jedilearner yearns for structure and an authority figure to affirm his actions

perhaps his father left when he was young

when he doesn't get the nod, the pat on the back from the person he's decided to venerate, he feels betrayed. again

Actually, I think the problem is that you've been asked to step up to the plate multiple times, and say what crpgs you HAVE liked in the past 10 years or so, and you've dodged the question each time. Which gives the impression that you don't actually have any basis from which to criticise any rpg at all, including Bethesda's, and that you're just writing them off in a poor attempt to get Codex Cool Points or because you're really a FPS Halo fan who has never actually LIKED a crpg to start with.

Seriously girlfriend. D R A M A

Next all we need is Rex to post and the circle would be complete.

On topic:

If they *Just* signed a contract, that means we have to wait.... quite a while for whatever the fuck it is they are working on.

Jedi_Learner, you never stated which games you liked.

Persay, which games are those, by chance?

So for those of us with ignore scripts, what did Obsidian land, anyway? Still a mystery?

Planescape Torment and Fallout. Last RPG I played and enjoyed was The Witcher, even if I didn't give it a high score.

Edit:



I'm surprised.
