You do know obsidian are the new vegas crew right? They know how to milk the bethesda RPG cow better than bethesda themselves :p

I mean, surely New Vegas was pretty much the only Bethesda Rpg that didn't need a shit ton of mods to be playable? Haha

Most of their games at this point are pretty different than Bethesda rpgs. Pentiment, Grounded, Pillars of Eternity, Tyranny, Pathfinders, Stick of Truth etc. They’ve actually gone on to make some pretty unique titles, while Bethesda has milked the rpg cow for pretty much their entire existence.

Well, they didn't make the Gamebryo engine that NV was built on, that was provided by Bethesda. Not saying Obsidian couldn't pull it off, but they don't have the same kind of experience building engines that Bethesda does. The writing is top notch though.
