I'm not even worried about Obsidian closing and I hope they buy back their independence too, Microsoft doesn't give a fuck about them, I legit think someone like Josh Sawyer would probably leave Obsidian soon due to Microsoft's actions.

How does MS not give a fuck about Obsidian? They're like their most productive developer, and they literally just gave them the biggest spotlight at their show this year, and are calling it the year of Obsidian. And Avowed got a ton of marketing as well earlier this year. 

They are productive, Microsoft will ignore them for now, but the moment Obsidian doesn't have a game on the horizon and Microsoft needs to "make line go up" they will absolutely lay off Obsidian employees along with everyone else, because at the end of the day all these employees are to Microsoft are nothing but numbers on a data sheet.

Wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft lays off the Avowed team who haven't yet moved over to The Outer Worlds 2 and then pushes them to be a Fallout studio because it would be bigger than both The Outer Worlds 3 and Avowed 2. All the people begging Obsidian to do Fallout would get their wish but it would come at a shitty cost of turning Obsidian into a 1-2 team studio.
