Video Description

Obsidian just released The Outer Worlds 2, arguably their best RPG in over a decade, yet the game is struggling. Low player counts, weak sales, and a growing lack of trust from fans is raising a serious question… Is Obsidian in trouble? In this video I discuss the reasons why the game was unable to attract players to it, Obsidian's recent history, why the game does not live up to today's greats and what this means for Obsidian's future. I also cover Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's directors (Daniel Vavra) tweet discussing how he said the game was "outdated" and was running on an "ancient formula". Has the Obsidian formula become outdated? Have they lost their core fanbase forever? Are they doomed? Or can they turn it around? Let's cover everything and see what the future holds!
