The other day I got Planescape: Torment off of GOG, and I just finished it.
I've seen people call this the best-written game ever made, and I can certainly see why. I am left simply amazed at the quality of the storytelling. But I said in business "right now" so I'm going to say Obsidian (I mention Planescape because Obsidian has many of the people who worked on it).
I've loved every Black isle/Obsidian game I've ever played (those being Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout New Vegas, Neverwinter Nights 2, Mask of the Betrayer, Storm of Zehir, KOTOR 2 and of course Planescape: Torment).
Of them I'd say KOTOR 2 was the weakest, unless you happen to use the restored content mod (which I do) in which case it'd probably be Neverwinter Nights 2 (which I still like a lot). Mask of the Betrayer blows it out of the water, of course.
So yeah. I honestly think Obsidian is my favourite developer in business right now.
Now that I've gotten my fan wank out of the way, what are yours?
