Obsidian is teasing a new game on Twitter

Well now I will be disappointed if it's anything except this.
And people said I was crazy expecting them to announce something new, who's got the last laugh now ahahahaha muhahaha!
I would give a kidney for a new Fallout game from them, but I know that will never happen :( Fallout:New Vegas is one of my favorite games, I still play through it every few years.
It's not anything Star Wars related. I just don't see them working with EA... especially that EA doesn't want single-player only games apparently.
You know what? I would be down for another Alpha Protocol or similar (just maybe without bugs) modern-day RPG with as many interesting story paths and choices. Whatever they do, if it's single player RPG, I'm in.

Not sure why people are hoping it's kotor 3, as if working with EA right now would be a good idea for them OR for us. I don't know about anyone else but I definitely do not want a dragon age inquisition clone with forced co-op/MP integration and microtransactions everywhere.
UE4 so not a Bethesda Fallout game.
Could be Star Wars since EA is letting Respawn make a Star Wars game with UE4.
My bet is on MS because of this.

Me too. Wheel of Time is THE book series for my dream RPG. I had that Hexen/Doom knockoff, don't remember the name but that's not what I want for a proper game from that series. GoT is paper compared the scale and intrigue of the Wheel of Time. And it has actually likeable characters.
They managed to sign a deal with a mystery publisher that managed to employ most of their staff after the Armored Warfare split.
I honestly think it might be Microsoft given they were keen to defend the fact that Microsoft was still hiring independent developers for larger projects when most publishers weren't.
If only the Gods would be so kind. It is beyond criminal that this game does not exist and the series was instead turned into a PC only MMO.
lol the radio in that game is pretty great. Big Iron is a good song
OP

Imho the 3 possible are.
- Warner Bros, maybe HP project?
- EA, more like i hope EA to put them on a Star Wars game
- Microsoft, I mean, they can buy Obsidian easily and fund one of their games.
Maybe Square Enix?
I'm in for anything, Obsidian, Larian, and CDPR are the best RPG developers in the industry right now in my opinion.
I hope it's a new Arcanum game (Tim Cain and rest of ex-Troika), Alpha Protocol 2, or a post-apocalypse game (i.e spiritual successor to Fallout), but I'm excited for anything Obsidian nonetheless. I don't think we'll get a Fallout RPG again by Obsidian, I'd expect them wanting to do their own post-apocalypse IP. Josh Sawyer has also for a long time expressed his desire to make a low-fantasy RPG like a game he loves a lot called Darklands that took place during 15h century Holy Roman Empire (various German states) which I would love.
I personally prefer isometric RPGs but complete 3D perspective is fine with me too.

I dream! However, more than likely is not.
The LucasArts Story Group is going to establish the canon of that era in books/comics/possible live action TV, before having a game tackle it initially.

Oh, awesome! signed and shared. Will be sure to follow.
Thanks! Wishing the best for the campaign
That's good to hear. Hopefully we will hear soon enough about their plans and their mystery publisher.
Also, great seeing you here Nirolak.
Do you think you can help me to create a new thread ? I cannot do it as I'm new here.
Just need a title: Campaign for an open world Panzer Dragoon RPG
You can just leave the message blank or almost, I will add the description in the next message!
Also don't forget to follow the Twitter !
This plus a recent interview where Microsoft said they'd be looking into expanding first party and collaboration efforts make me think it's this.
That could be great, but I feel like the timing of this announcement is odd if that's the case. It would be quite an early announcement for a large-scale project, and I feel like Microsoft tends to save the big guns for E3. Though I guess the game awards would be an interesting venue... and Microsoft knows it has a problem with the image of their first party. Hmm... I'm kinda changing my mind while writing this post.
I believe the Cain+Boyarksky project is separate from this. IIRC they have three things running right now, PoE 2, Cain+Boyarsky game, and a AAA game of some kind. Could be wrong, but I believe that is what Feargus said a few months back anyway.
Just going to throw out a guess that the AAA project is Harry Potter related. UE4 excludes several pubs and IPs(unless something has changed), so to me is down to WB or SE as to who could funding something.
I will honestly be fine with whatever they announce, but I am always going to cling to the hope that they will fulfill their destiny and make a new VtMB. If that ever gets announced, it is going to get a tremendous reaction.
However, even if it is a new IP, it could easily take the things I want from a new VtMB (or Fallout NV) and incorporate them into a new world I will love. The only thing I don't want is something that is besides a deep RPG, because action games are not where Obsidian's magic is.

Yeah, I suspect the game is going to be a The Game Awards announcement, despite whoever the publisher is. G-STAR seems less likely, but it's the only other event this month, assuming an event reveal.
Microsoft does seem likely but it could be Bethesda with a different IP as well although not very likely.
It will be interesting to see whatever this turns out to be but man, I would love to see some more Fallout from Obsidian.
Also, on the engines, if you note Skyrim VR and Switch port won't support any mods. So Fallout or Elder Scrolls spin off in UE4 is not out of a realm of possibilities.
The Cain/Boyarsky game is the AAA game. It was Deadfire, a AAA game with a large publisher and a small project just getting started.
Mostly I think this is just them having fun with Twitters dumb 280 character increase and not really indicative of any pending announcement. Would be happy to be proven wrong though.
