Xbox Wants Reportedly Wants The Next Fallout Game To Come Sooner

Hand it over to Obsidian and bring back the New Vegas crew. They won't do this because it hurts poor Todd Howards feelings that Obsidian arguably made a better Fallout game than they did.
Its fucking obvious that is the best decision.
Would MS do it? No, because they're run by incompetent fucking morons
If MS had any intelligence they would have commissioned remasters of Fallout 3 and New Vegas the day they acquired Bethesda. People were BEGGING for this.
Again, they're too fucking dumb to take easy wins.
C'mon Microsoft, show me.....just once....that you are capable of making a good decision in the Phil Spencer era.

The effect of the shows hype is already plummeting. It will be completely evaporated by next week.
Better hurry up.

I won't believe that is happening until it actually happens. Fallout 3 remaster was posted on the leak, but we've heard nothing since then.
Knowing MS they probably cancelled it, because....big daddy Todd said no.

which episode. There are times when I respect Jez and times where I think he has lost his fucking mind. Sadly it's far more of the latter.who wants to come sooner? cuz I'm not

People like Colt Eastwood and now Destin I have no respect or hope for. They are deliberately lying to their audience.

Trying to “expedite” a Bethesda games doesn’t sounds like a good idea at all considering their latest releases.
If Microsoft were as smart as they claim, they would have split the company (or at least split the IP) to one team working Fallout while the other team works Elder Scrolls. Makes no sense to buy out a company which only releases their big titles once every 8 years. An entire generation could pass by without a new Fallout or Elder Scrolls.

Bethesda has been working on a Fallout 3 remaster. It came out in the ABK trials.

Dude, what's up with the hate on Todd Howard? What's the basis for this whole rumor that Howard is bitter/jealous over New Vegas come from?

What do you mean? PC is the best platform to play all Bethesda games considering you can mod out all the junk.

You can mode it to make it work better also it was offered long ago on Epic so if you do that, you might have it already

please don’t… Xbox doesn’t have a great history at releases lately even when they don’t rush something & Bethesda is even worse

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
There's no basis for it, only hearsay.
People tried to use the justification that they 'contradicted' NV's timeline but that was quickly debunked and the damn show ends with the tease that Season 2 takes place in New Vegas.

The last one, but you are right, he has been breaking down this entire year.

I bought it on Steam for like 3$
It goes on sale all the time, but it was just on sale recently.

I mean, is it a good port or is it unplayable with lots of bugs and glitches? It's an old game so unsure about the compatibility with modern hardware and configurations.

I like Todd Howard but he sets himself up for criticism for his double talk and unrealistic expectations he puts out there for his games.
Plus the new fo4 update is borked

The Steam and GOG versions are probably better since you can mod them to hell and back.
I tried the GP version and it was such a stuttery mess on my laptop that I ended up playing it on the Xbox with its FPS boost. I was trying the GP PC version on a 1060 laptop with an i5 and 16GB RAM, which shouldn't have problems with this at all.

Buy London devs, delay it 4 months, throw 100 devs at it with super skills.... release

Good i support that attitude, i agree with Xbox, more games is better than less or no SP like Bethesda's policy, would like Obsidian to make it but any studio that cares about Fallout will do.

Sooner…This garbage ass planning on Microsoft behalf once again, they should have planned one to release around the same time the show did. Now they’re going to rush job another release and fuck that one up to too.

Just remaster 3 and NV
That'll do

Except I remember hearing stuff about Howard and New Vegas strife even before the show, I'm not sure where it comes from?
I mean, it makes sense to have a stronger connection to the products you were closer to, that's just natural. The GTA Stories & DLC and MGS PSP games (except Peacewalker) get iced out of franchise retrospectives/re-releases despite Benzies/GTA leads and Kojima being involved in the productions. The Super Mario Land series has barely courtesy representation in the Super Mario Maker apps. It happens that some products in a long line of titles, especially side-games which still manage to garner a strong following, get less flowers, and it rankles those who love the full history or specifically a certain excellent side-game.
I just don't know where this specific rumor stems from?
Criticism is fine, he's a bigwig and should be held accountable if products he produces have issues. But there's this weird thing from New Vegas-specific fans that I've never gotten a bead on.

Obsidian did New Vegas in 18 months and look how it turned out, still the highest regarded Fallout, so it doesn't need to take 5 or Bethesda's 10 to 20 years.

Breaking news at 11!
major game publishers want sequels to extremely popular series to be made quicker
Also news: Nintendo wants the next Zelda to be made faster and sell just as many copies as breath of the wild. Source: myself.

Again, it's probably something that just stemmed from forum nonsense.
He's been ok on the game
And Here's Obsidian's Idea For Fallout: New Vegas 2
When you speak with someone in Las Vegas, the topic of conversation naturally shifts to Vegas-themed things. In the cas…

No shit, this was the most predictable thing ever…yet they somehow missed doing it until now. It’ll take 5 years. Way too late. This should have been greenlit for a different studio years ago.

Fallout 3(and NV) remade with the Starfield engine would hold people over nicely for Fallout 5.

The GOG version of New Vegas comes pre-patched with bug fixes and that's the version I played (along with their version of Fallout 3) when I was on my Fallout binge after playing 4. It was mostly fine, but it did crash more than 3 did. Not too bad for the main game, but the Big Mountain DLC in particular crashed the most for me.

The last word on it from a Virtuous studios employee (the studio supposedly doing the remaster) is that it's going to get a UE5 visual overhaul with the gamebryo physics running under it.

Best option is to remaster F3/NV like they did with Skyrim Anniversary edition or whatever
Obsidian is busy with Avowed and Bethesda is busy with ES VI. Not a chance that they will stop what they are doing to make a new Fallout. And even if they do, it would take at least 3-4 years to make.
MS being surprised by the boom in popularity after the tv series is such a MS thing. They fuck up every single time.

Honestly I just think it's as simple as shit talking Todd in terms of new vegas. There's been several teams that have worked on fo and he's been the figure head for awhile.
I think it's just as easy as people being dipshits. Obsidian has a strong narrative developing team and that's one thing Bethesda fallout is a little weak on. There's that meme of fallout characters always searching for a family member.
