Fallout: New Vegas Dev "Would Love" To Make Another Fallout Game

I am squarely in the "Three was best" camp, but I do see what others are saying here about the writing in NV. The factions/characters in NV were well written in their own way, but the way they were presented undermined the good writing. Every time you met one, they either a) shot at you because you allied with someone else already or b) sucked you into a story line that, while cool, didn't make sense in an RPG. What's you're character going to say? "Hey, Veronica, we've been through so very, very much. We've fought and killed and lost and loved and become such tight friends. But hey I just met this ghoul, and, even though I barely know him, I'm totally going to be betray everything we have for him, ok? Ok."

Didn't work. Which is a shame because there was SO much good writing there.

New vegas was most enjoyable of the lot.. 4 played the best but was missing everything else

IMO, New Vegas was the best "modern" Fallout, better than Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. Yes, there were issues and hilarious bugs, but as a whole it was a great experience with a really solid plot.

I hope that Bethesda will give Obsidian a green light to do another spin-off.

New Vegas was shit compared to Fallout 3. They just brought a lot of factions in New Vegas and you had to build up their trust and resolve their childish issues. The storyline started to vanish to some point to only appear to the very end. Fallout 3 had more anchor points and stayed true to the story. The methodology of New Vegas was applied to Skyrim were you had again too many factions and so on. The only thing that made Skyrim awesome was its lore. Medieval lore added Dragons were compelling. Lore in future after apocalyptic world? -meh. My final thought is that I don't want a new fallout game from Obsidian.

fucking awesome bring it on

Obviously if another fallout came along everyone would hop right on it no matter what people say. Bring it on already! Too bad its not in the works already.

Its likely the only way we will ever get a full Fallout game again, not the half arsed games Bethesda are churning out, But it wont happen Bethesda/Zenimax are probably aiming to make a fortune off selling mods for the next few titles, and a game that needs less mods to be good isn't something they will want.

They've been saying this for years, and while I would love for them to make a new FO, I just don't think it's going to happen. Bethesda Softworks used to publish games made by studios that weren't owned by ZeniMax fairly often, but as time has passed they've done it less and less to the point of nearly not doing it at all today. Sadly about the only way Obsidian would have a chance at making a new FO would be if they were purchased by ZeniMax. Obsidian has made it clear in the past that they are open to the idea of being bought by ZeniMax, but right now ZeniMax doesn't seem to be interested.

Fallout NV was the best Fallout so far, so I would love to see Obsidian get another chance at the franchise.

no I dont id rather they not make a game that had so many invisible walls that it funneled me to my death so many times it was not funny.

Not me. Fallout 5 was an extremely repetitive game that tried to do too much crap at the expense of action. I'm done with the series.

I hope so. wasn't a huge fan of the setting, but they did right with the story, gameplay, and freedom of it. L.A. would be a great setting, get some heavy NCR stuff and a lot of interesting places.

Like others said if they did make one they better not be rushed.

I often see people give Obsidian shit for FNV because of the countless bugs at release and to this day. Fact of the matter is, Obsidian managed to put FNV together in just shy of 18 months. Bethesda would be crazy to not allow Obsidian to develop any more Fallouts. Time and time again, the people of Obsidian/Black Isle/Interplay (a good chunk of the same people throughout the past 20 years) have proven that they have always made the better Fallout and the better RPG. Bethesda needs to get off the pipe and the let the real RPG developers put together their Fallout content.

If Obsidian gets another contract job, they need to get it in writing that they will not be overly rushed by the parent/publishing company. As good as their games are, imagine how great Fallout: New Vegas, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II, and Alpha Protocol would have been if they hadn't been rushed.

how about a non US fallout like china or europe because i dont remember them ever saying what the rest of the world is like in the timeline

I don't like the sound of New Vegas 2 go somewhere else in the US if you make another one. I do suspect that before the New Vegas release bethesda was planning on buying obsidian but due to the companies lay offs and financial trouble they obviously thought it was not worth the effort for whatever reason.
