Notes:

Can Fallout New Vegas 2 Really Happen?
- With MSFT purchase Fallout and Obsidian under same owner once again
o Immediate discussion of a potential Fallout NV 2 or new spinoff from Obsidian
o NV 2 just catchy, but I think desire is a spinoff game
- Obsidian tweets sparking this even more
o Gets a huge reaction, most liked tweet ever from them – RT from Major Nelson
 Fallout profile pictures from Nelson and Spencer
o Many start pointing towards past tweet from former NV director about working on a new project
o Reportedly this deal was in the works for years so the timeline could workout
- But lets put the brakes on this for a second
o NV director confirms they aren’t working on NV 2
o Microsoft doesn’t actually own Bethesda yet
 Even says net income won’t be impacted for a bit
- Still hope somewhat for a NV 2
o BGS timeline vs Obsidian timeline – do you want to monetize the Fallout IP?
 Starfield being shopped around
o Tweets from Obsidian are likely because they want to work on Fallout
 Have said so over the years – 2017 quote
o Bethesda reluctance in the past – but now under MSFT ownership
- Obsidian even clarified on what a NV 2 would entail
o Josh Sawyer on giving things another shot
- But this is still a ways out – work on this couldn’t really start until the deal is final
o Still likely years away
- But even things like remasters seem more likely now
o Remake of NV or 3 on updated engine by one of the many Xbox studios
o Xbox seems way more likely to do remakes compared to Todd not loving it
 But MSFT needs to capitalize on these IPs after 7.5 bn expenditure
- Simply put – seems insane that MSFT would leave BGS biggest IP to date dormant for another 10 years while BGS does their thing
