The game designer and writer finally addressed the allegations in June, filing a libel lawsuit against women who accused him. In 2020, Avellone was accused of sexual misconduct and lost his job at several studios. He worked on games like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II, Never Winter Nights 2, and Fallout: New Vegas before leaving the studio in 2015 due to a conflict with its management. Then they brought Bethesda so now Obsidian are a total waste of money as you actually own what you always wanted. The problem Avowed will always have is MS brought Obsidian to have their own version of Elder Scrolls. The release date or any other details about the game haven’t been revealed yet.Ĭhris Avellone co-founded Obsidian Entertainment in 2003 along with his Black Isle colleagues Feargus Urquhart, Chris Parker, Chris Jones, and Darren Monahan. There are plenty of decent RPGs out there. I have heard the new Project Lead is much better, but I admittedly was curious what the Farcry writer would have done if he hadn’t quit.Īlso, Oscuro quitting was a huge loss for the studio, too.Īvowed was announced in 2019 with a short minute-long teaser. You said insiders said it’s “on track,” but I don’t know what that means. He also went on to say that the fact that Josh Sawyer decided to not work on the game “probably says enough.” “It’s generally unusual for people to quit in the middle of a project, it’s generally not well regarded in the industry unless there’s mitigating factors (family sick),” Avellone explained his concerns about Avowed. They keep losing leads on that project, not a good sign If Obsidian and Bethesda work out a similar deal as with NV, they will likely get to license their engine and have some assets on hand. OW2 is estimated to be out end of 23/beginning of 24, and Avowed is estimated 24. Lead level designer, lead designer, and some other people quit, “according to grapevine.” ES6 is estimated to come.out in 26, and given the dev time they have been taking, FO5 is probably in the 30s. Obsidian and InXile may be able to cooperate on Wasteland 4. Whats cool is Microsoft now owns Wasteland, and thats a similar and better series at this point. The famous game writer claimed that the project has lost a few key developers, and it is “not a good sign.” If Avellone’s information is true, lead designer and art lead were moved to work on Grounded, while the project director was replaced. Theyll never have another shot at Fallout but the series is already gutted and trash. Avowed is one of the most anticipated Xbox exclusives, and for good reason Obsidian Entertainment is returning to the world of Eora the universe that the studios stunning Pillars of. Chris Avellone shared his insights on the current situation at Obsidian when asked why he won’t join the studio to work on Avowed.
