Should Microsoft Take Fallout Away From Bethesda?

[bogey_j]

how bad of an idea was it to not have a Fallout tie-in game to go along with a super popular new TV show

seemed like a perfect opportunity for corporate synergy. Popular new Fallout TV show with a new Fallout game ready to go would print money.

Microsoft really needs to take Fallout away from Bethesda and let other devs get a crack at that franchise. Beth are far too slow putting out games

The best they could do was release a next Gen remaster

They should give it to Obsidian

Todd Howard been cooked, New Vegas is proof that Obsidian should’ve at least should’ve been given a similar budget as Bethesda got for another Fallout spinoff

They will give it to obsidian

Bethesda Has Had "Conversations" About Third-Party Fallout Games Like New Vegas

A gears style fallout would be fun

 

[daze23]

better off just giving Bethesda more support

MS needs to make them change engines or make a new one

 

[Bubba T]

Bethesda has been on a downward trend in game quality since Skyrim tbh

Take Fallout from Bethesda and give it to Obsidian to develop they're sister studios now, it stays in-house.
Tell BGS to focus on ES6 because that's the next big thing they can produce for fanfare. That needs to be 110% of their focus right now.
Gather the remnants of Arkane - call the Prey team and get them in touch with the id team for gunplay - and that's your pre-dev team for Starfield 2

Everything stays technically in the Bethesda umbrella, all of it is inhouse so there's no outside studios working on MS properties, but the right people for the work are working on the right things.

Not with that washed up engine

Yep, I want Fallout 6 to be handled by Obsidian and a smaller dev to remake 1 and 2 in the same isometric style.

Bethesda can keep The Elder Scrolls, but they would definitely benefit from some new blood leading the dev of their games, the current leadership refuses to evolve their formula.

I would easily pay 130 dollars for a Larian Fallout game

Breh we can’t een get a good gears game.

Those games are terrible (Fallout), IMO. A clunky, outdated mess.
