That's also the PlayStation 5 release date.

I will drop in for a New Game Plus to see the new races, to see what things they've done to it.

And it makes me just want to make sure Obsidian is still making those kind of RPGs.

Grounded, I'm not a survival guy, so it's just not what I want to jump into.

And this is something I go...

into all the time we start talking about obsidian slash start talking about these kind of RPGs is that we really need to get rid of this idea that the RPG has to be this huge go anywhere world and I want the RPG that is hey it's going to be 10 12 hours and you are going to make choices in it that then make it radically different than what then you replay it again and you find something else that way and these

conversations and you you do show up and you kill everybody you're thrown in jail the credits roll like that that should be an option for what we're doing rather than feeling like it's got to be all these different planets or all these different environments and biomes and you know avowed I thought for me and I always saw Andy and I talk about it too it was the fact that for some reason just none of the companions clicked for us and so when you don't have that pulling you through then it's like okay well combat was great the world was beautiful but I didn't have a connection to what I was doing

100%.

And when you look at Obsidian, right, you think, I think of Pentamid too, right?

Which was such a, hey, here's this thing

we've been working on tinkering you drop and everybody loved it and it was on game of the year list and it was all these different things and it was that hey here's a smaller scope let's take what works about rpgs and play with it and tinker with it and give you something that's digestible and ready to run through i think they're such a talented studio and i'm fascinated to see what they do next i'm just always worried about any studio getting to do something next in this world right now because it's kind of bleak because if you haven't noticed

100%, yeah.

So you have to really worry about where that goes.

But I hope Obsidian's good.

I like more in the Avowed universe than Pillars.

That's fine.

I still think...

It is batshit fucking crazy that they haven't turned and said, listen, Todd, we love you.

Keep making Elder Scrolls.

You can make the next Fallout with a number at the end of it.
