Obsidian Teases a New RPG

Well whatever it is, if they get to build the game from the ground up like they did with Dungeon Siege 3, but with their own IP (pleasepleasepleaseplease), then this could be something really special.
Warts and all Obsidian have made some of my favourite games over the years. I would love to see them take their place at the big people table of the rpg pantheon.

I can't wait 4 it!
By which I mean I can and will wait for maybe five years until the community releases an ultimate fix mod. Because Obsidian.

OT:
I'm guessing some form of fantasy game based off the Fallout New Vegas engine.
However the twist is that it is a post-apocalyptic kinda style.
The real question we must ask ourselves is this.
Can Obsidian, for the first time ever, made a complete game, that is stable, and playable?

My first thought is Wheel of Time because of the snake eating its tail...
But the text doesn't match.
Then I think of Dungeon Seige 4... Good possibility.
It is NOT Neverwinter Nights... Cryptic or whoever else has the mmo version of that now.
Fallout 4 isnt' really a possibility.. (Bethsoft has the rights on that..)
Perhaps... another Dragon Age? Bioware & Obsidian have always shared some of their games like that...

Yea its been done already Dungeon Siege 3SajuukKhar said:
Most there games are buggy because they dont have enough time to polish up or in KOTOR2's case finish the game because there dev time is cut by several months
OT: I want to know what this game is already as im excited for there games
Considering this is Obsidian we are talking about if they are going high fantasy road then they will subvert the hell out of it.KoudelkaMorgan said:
(edit) In the buggest of ways but that isn't that much of a deal breaker with the stories they come up with.
I think the real question here is, what obscenely stupid issue will hold this game back from being great this time?
It is unfortunate that DS3 is also considered to be a sequel that wasn't as good as its predecessors, just as most Obsidian games are.Veldie said:

Both the professional reviews, and the user reviews, say it wasn't that good of a game. A similar situation to both NWN 2 and KOTOR 2.
If this next game is a sequel to something we can expect Obsidian to knock off around 10 points of the games average review score compared to its predecessors.
I hope it's not Dungeon Siege 4. That just seems like a waste of Obsidian's potential.

Ooh, intriguing.
I wonder what the fatal flaw will be this time. Mind you, still interested, just wondering.
