Think there is also the possibility that Obsidians next big game might fall outside the 1-2 year cross gen plan. If this is a 3 year dev cycle then it can very well be Next gen/PC. Guess we wait till June to find out it’s release timeline.

Since they are now owned by Microsoft it will most likely be Xbox Series X and PC only.

Depends what they want to make. A game like Grounded suits being cross-gen. Their next big rumoured RPG game would be built around next gen and if anything, ported down to the previous gen not the other way around. 

I don't see why a company like Obsidian would base their next big game around 2013 hardware in 2022 especially if next gen takes off better, like if the Series X does a number on the X1.

That's why it depend on what Microsoft are trying to sell of. If they are trying to sell gamepass (which what are they trying to focus on) then Xbox One will be the priority and general quality all across the platform will be the focus. And it will held back by old gen tech.

You need to play games like Gears 5 and Forza Horizon 4 to prove you have nothing to worry about. Those games are Game Pass games.

I mean I know you’ve been trying real hard to push this narrative for awhile now, twisting things to fit it, but watching the video, their issues can be and were resolved by lowering NPC count, splitting areas into multiple levels, and plus now that they will have bigger budgets and have been hiring more people, they can optimize better.

Well both are great games because it was made for current gens , it will be different story  if those were made for Xbox 360 as well.

Like Horizon 2? 

Oh wait that was also made for 360 but was basically a different game and the Xbone version was still great. Here’s you right now:

A good game depends on the devs, not the hardware its on.

Did you forget Zelda BOTW was made on the WiiU.

Im glad you agree that they will be held back. good thing that there is no need to go by all that happened on that other thread.

I think you only half got the point. ALL games are “held back” in the first 2 years regardless of cross gen. 

Not even Sony is immune to this. Resistance Fall of Man - Last of Us. Killzone Shadowfall - Ghosts of Tsushima/Last of Us 2. You tell me those games are graphically on par and you win this debate (surprise, I all ready know the answer)

Dont need to as that was never the argument and you like to add extra conditions because you can't defend the practice.

Simple and clean. Xsx will not have 9th gen exclusives for the first one to 2 years. The ps5 will have no such constrains. Stop trying to add things nobody is arguing to fit your narrative. During that time ps5 games will be superior.



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.

Oh wait it's game that made for Xbox one then ported back to Xbox 360 with more budget, more time, more team . Do i have to remind you again back and forth. It's diffrent. The problem is still exist. IT WILL HELD BACK . PERIOD.

Huh? Switch is alot more powerful than the WiiU and Zelda wasnt held back by the WiiU's specs. Zelda turned out to be arguably the best game this gen designed on a console that wasn't even part of this gen.

Keep trying.
