Friendly reminder they now own the guys who created Fallout New Vegas in less than a year and the Fallout IP...

Obsidian now is not the same as it was when New Vegas was developed. And besides, they are working on 2 games of their own right now

Yeah but Avowed is due to release in a few months ("Fall 2024") and their other game is Outer Worlds 2 right? So they have two teams running simultaneously, they could get most of the Avowed team onto a Fallout title by the end of the year, excluding a small group for support and DLC for Avowed presumably.

I have no doubt Obsidian already had something else planned for that team before the success of the Fallout show though. Either going all-hands on deck for Outer Worlds 2 or a different game, so not sure how readily they could pivot should Lord Spencer crack the whip on them.

But owning them I would think means they own the game and all the assets. Which is more important than the people for an old game like that being remade.
