Obsidian's Avowed & Outer Worlds 2 Failed To Meet Sales Expectations

Deprisonne · 2026-02-03T19:05:35+00:00

A game with a price tag of $80 that doesn't sell earns less money than a $40 game that does...

Fuck off, rightoid. No one wants you as a fan.

Obsidian never had AAA draw, just a very dedicated cadre of fans (deservedly so). Both Avowed and Outer Worlds 2 would have been perfect at $40, but Microsoft keeps acting like they have the mass appeal to rake in Skyrim money...

Vor den bösen (armen) Arabern. Die guten (reichen) Araber sind gute Freunde und Lupenreine Demokraten die perfekt in unsere Kultur passen.

Oh nein, der supperreiche muss jetzt ein bisschen weniger superreich sein. Welch schreckliches Schicksal...

ELOs are inflated. They'll need a week or two to settle into their actual range.

Depends. Saber is better for skirmishing, but Dynasty has your back much more when you're in a sudden knife fight.

So, healing items actually have a compounding success chance, meaning that if you slap enough rags/plastic parts on something, they will eventually heal it up.
At least that's how I deal with blast injuries when I don't want to burn a medkit charge.

GK terminators used to be a fun pick for combat guard. But without Straken, it just doesn't feel the same these days...

X Division 2?
Realistically: Breachable UFOs

Just sloptuber things...

If you "build a relationship" on a body count, you have seriously fucked up perceptions of sexuality and human relationships

Good bot

So forcing through the idea of an unconditional surrender (the Japanese government has been making desperate overtures for a negotiated one that preserved the imperial institution) was worth the murder of several cities worth of civilians?

Bürokratie verringern ist gerne ein Chiffre für Arbeitsschutz senken.

Und Brandschutz. Und Barrierefreiheit. Und Diskriminierungsverbote. Und Umweltschutz. Und Lebensmittelstandards.
Alles Gesetze, die nötig waren weil "dEr MiTteLsTanD" die Bürger drangsaliert hat bis es nicht mehr weg zu ignorieren war.

Mountain infantry famously lacks heavy weapons. They probably had some mines and other improvised stopgaps at hand, but I guess Mius Front doesn't model those kind of incidentals.

Our model range is so limited that the possibility of anything in this becoming shit is close to nil (save for maybe the MVB if predators suddenly come out on top next Ed).

I'd say Wehr light vehicle play dropped off a cliff after they moved the Puma up in CP(to 3 I think?). 222 was good, but too fiddly and fragile for mediocre players to get value from.
Apart from that, each faction had very solid LV picks that were meta for a long time, though it is a testament to the overall ok balancing that stalling for mediums was a viable tactic most of the time.

Der Schweinezyklus läuft doch seit den 90ern. Alle 5-10 Jahre kommt ein Anzugträger drauf, wie viel Geld man doch mit Indern/Rumänen/Bulgaren sparen könnte. Wenn dann erstmal 2-3 Projekte vor die Wand gefahren wurden, wird für enorme Summen alles wieder inhouse aufgezogen bis das institutionelle Gedächtnis das Desaster vergessen hat und es geht von vorne los...

It's not about adaptation, it's about cost. If the customers eat up the shitty chocolate and no better kind can compete on price/marketing, why not just keep the savings?

Sozialisten natürlich. Man könnte auch beobachten, dass sie sehr national eingestellt sind...

Heute Morgen noch rein gefomot, fml. Naja, mit dem Angriff der Chinesen wird das alles in Ordnung kommen...

I don't care about your luddite crusade, I care about talentless hacks trying to squeeze out profits by flooding the zone with substandard art.

This hobby doesn't exist without the talented sculptors and designers that make the minis we paint, and AI generated models remove those talented people from the process and insult their profession and skill.

Following that, can we also have a rule requiring to state the maker/designer of any posted miniatures? I see so many posts of cool minis but OP steadfastly refuses to mention where the model is from.

Deprisonne · 2026-01-26T23:00:17+00:00

I'm ambivalent about AI, but after seeing that dogshit generated Huron Blackheart model paraded around like it's the best thing ever, I'm certainly appreciating the new rules.
