Josh Sawyer, director of Fallout: New Vegas, still works at Obsidian - therefore working under Microsoft's umbrella. He just shipped Pentiment to overwhelmingly positive reviews; They literally have an RPG master who directed the crowd-favorite Fallout game RIGHT THERE in house, and they're looking for help on Fallout 5.
…Is this not an extremely obvious decision to make? I know the fans would go crazy for this, but I feel like I've heard zero buzz from you guys LATELY. Surely I'm not the only one who sees how perfectly lined up this is.
It's the fact that I haven't heard anyone else in the community realize this that makes me confused. I'm sure everyone will say "Microsoft sucks, so they would never make a good business decision," or "Todd Howard hates Obsidian/New Vegas," but is there anything that's not just a knee-jerk, oversimplified response that I'm missing? It's Microsoft's decision at the end of the day, and Josh still loves the franchise, so it could happen.
*To be clear, I'm not suggesting Obsidian should take on this huge project rn (prob not big enough/too split up on other projects), just that they should commission Josh to whatever working body they end up making.
