It really sucks that they took Obsidian off this series. The first game was great and I feel like making it "in-house" is just going to lead to Ubisoft not making a fun rpg but instead going down their tried and true "ubisoft" style game, focusing more on collecting crap and less on the actual rpg-gameplay and the story/humor of things.
Hope I'm wrong, but I'd felt a lot better if I knew Obisidian was making the sequel.
Also sucks that Obsidian always gets the shaft, they make great games for companies like this, Fallout: NV, and then they get screwed or don't get the sequel work on them. Even Bioware seem to have stopped using them.
