Couldn't this just go in the XboxBesthesda thread? I'm actually pretty sure it is already there even.

I can totally relate to this,

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Especially considering the fact that there are only a handful of games made in the last 5-10 years that get anywhere near my all time favourites list and even fewer that were made by Western studios in that timeframe.

To be fair grounded is pretty amazing, so credit where credit is due, just needs dedicated servers.
If they have anouther suprise like that I'd be happy to see what they have been working on.

Obsidian is Xbox's Insomniac, guys are insane in how many projects they work on at a time. I hope Microsoft treats them right. Obsidian is an exciting developer, Avowed is going to be fun, and I'm hyped for Outer Worlds 2. I think Obsidian is better than most Bethesda studios in terms of output.

Looking at her art portfolio she was involved in Pillars of Eternity 2. The 2D art in that game was fantastic so I’m up for whatever they do next.

Definitely a Josh Sawyer's game.

It's a contraction of "Going to" for the vocabulary challenged individuals.

Guess we will find out eventually.
Prior to this, she worked on the Pathfinder Adventures card game as "Primary 2D Artist":
"2016-2017: Pathfinder Adventures, Primary 2D Artist.
Created assets for card art, UI, and marketing purposes. Created original card art (Character, Props, Illustrations, Environments), and modified pre-existing art for use a new digital format. Small team, with open communication. Task management, some QA testing. Managed the marketing art for public use, and Steam/GOG."
Before that she wasn't in the video game industry. Worked as a freelance illustrator for 10 years.

Not bad at all. And I remember the days when female characters were allowed to look like that in western games. Good times.

I'm pretty sure female characters looking like that is the issue people have.Not bad at all. And I remember the days when female characters were allowed to look like that in western games. Good times.

Very excited.
How many projects does OBSIDIAN have in development? I imagine she's talking about AVOWED or OW2. Definitely not GROUNDED related, which would be nice to see get out of EA but there's no reason to be coy on Twitter about it.
. . .I don't even know why they bothered clicking on the tweet to even check that out. Has literally nothing to do with what they're talking about.

So the Outer Worlds 2 will have a gameplay trailer this year, and it is going to have subversive art work which will eat away at the very foundations of society? Okay, I guess.

I'll take any "7 out of 10" game over overhyped shit that actually gets good ratings by the idiots on gaming sites that barely know how to play videogames

Let's stick to games in a gaming forum, shall we?*looks at twitter bio*
Guess we will find out eventually.
Checking twitter bios looking for a "gotcha" moment to be funny ...
Stuff like this is as tiresome as the SJ warriors at the other forum
Anyway, I think she is talking about Avowed? Have huge hope for it

You guys okay.... Now I think I understand the stigma, why women think gamers are sad virgin losers.

He should go on a tanning bed once and post a pic saying "I've been working on my tan!" just to mess with peeps.
What does this have to do with anything?
She’s talking about a game reveal, not release.
She also is not talking as part of the Obsidian marketing team.
People want to show off what they are working on, shock horror!

Sometimes I really wish I was still a virgin so I didn’t have to fight with a gang of kids over the consoles
The girl is beautiful. That’s all. Some of us aren’t brainwashed enough to not see this. And yes, gaming has a problem with beautiful female characters. The modern audience Twitter mob has made devs afraid to create characters that look too feminine and pleasant on the eyes, said to be objectification or whatever.

I'm confused, the bio gave me massive thatsapenis.gif vibes, but she seems to be an actual woman. I can't keep up with US west coast shenanigans anymore lmao

Joking aside, I think we still get attractive female characters, I think people just focus or get hung up on the ugly characters for some reason in video games.

You don’t think it’s unusual for a studio to reveal 3 games when their latest game isn’t out of beta?
