Considering how good Obsidian is and how Microsoft has traditionally handled PC gaming, I take this as absolutely horrible news.

Same. I can see them making them work on projects they don't exactly want to, as well as locking them to Win 10 store with zero mod support.

End of an era for them if it happens. 

How do you know it won't be different under Spencer? Surely they know they'll lose a huge chunk of the hard core fans if they don't do it right.
