Rather than reply individually to the people that quoted me, let me just make a blanket statement:
I do not hate Obsidian. I just feel that they have yet to release a decent game. A lot of people, for reasons I cannot fathom, Seem to want to blame the publisher, and that may work for one title, but when you find yourself making that excuse for every game they've made you need to stop passing the Buck.
If an architect designs a house and it falls over, it's conceivable to blame the constructor, but if several houses they've designed fall over, it's time to own up.
And as to why I think AP is their last chance? It's their first attempt at an original IP. If it's as good as it sounds on paper, they'll have established themselves as a developer. If not... my prediction stands.
