    Obsidian is looking to be acquired by Microsoft.

    That. That's the thing that's bugging me about this. What asset does Obsidian have? PoE isn't really an asset, not by large studio standards, and it's too generic to be an asset for artistic reasons. What else do they have? Unless they've seen the Cainarsky game and it's awesome beyond...

    what's with this community and the toxicity towards bethesda?

    People have been saying NMA is toxic, and that the toxicity is killing NMA since before half the people who come to NMA to tell it how toxic it is were even born.

    I get what you mean. I grew up with PAL though, and never used NTSC until I started emulating. Going back to PAL hasn't just made the games actually playable (I can't even do the first level of the original Sonic on NTSC anymore), it's also feels like going back to the "real" version, since...

    RE slowing down - get the PAL version of games. The PAL version of games are slower, even when you're emulating them. Some more so than others, but it definitely helps compensate for getting old, even with the ones that aren't much slower. If there isn't a PAL version of a game, turn the...

    Fallout 76

    How did Fallout 76 get a thread with as many pages as Fallout Resurrection on NMA of all places?

    Unpopular Opinion and Discussion thread

    But the crux of the major religions positively encourages homosexuality - do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

    Project Van Buren

    The camera was horrible, the dialogue displayed weirdly and was difficult to read, the combat was crap. The whole thing just generally felt inferior to Fallout 2, except the higher resolution. Like most RPG gamers of a certain age, I'm writing an RPG that may or may not ever see the light of...

    I Admire the Purity of The Legion's Justice.

    To be fair, I'm pretty sure the people invaded by Romans weren't overly ecstatic about the proposition.

    Project Van Buren

    It costs nothing to ask, but the Jefferson Engine....wasn't very good. I'm not convinced you'd save much time fixing it over starting from scratch.

    Project Van Buren

    Maybe we should petition Obsidian to have it appear in The Outer Worlds, or Iron Tower to have it appear in Colony Ship instead.

    Most psychopathic character in New Vegas?

    The Courier. Dude gets shot in the head, chases some bloke in a suit the long way round the Mojave, gets conscripted, and becomes a key figure in the war for Hoover Dam...but pisses off on holiday to the Zion National Park just as things are getting critical as though it's the most normal thing...

    Project Van Buren

    Yeah, but it's still attached to the car. MCA wanted just the trunk in honour of how it kept going missing on it's own.

    Project Van Buren

    Don't forget Word of God has it that the trunk of the Highwayman is supposed to turn up in Van Buren, in reference to the bug in 2. It's not in the design documents as far as I remember, but definitely the most egregious oversight in New Vegas that needs to see the light of day somewhere.

    We're there, Fallout's lowest point

    The franchise is in the greatest shape it's ever been in. Resurrection, Nevada are still fresh and new. Sonora is upcoming, and Mutants Rising might arrive some time around October 2077. The days are only dark if you think Bethesda is somehow related to Fallout beyond a word written on a...

    We're there, Fallout's lowest point

    Say what you like about merchandise, but I'd definitely buy a GECK. I'm not too fussed about the seeds, or the torch-pen, I can get them from Wilkos, but it'd still be worth it for that cold fusion power.
