IGN:
Obsidian Entertainment was developing a role-playing game called Stormlands for the launch of Xbox One that was ultimately canceled, and studio CEO Fergus Urquhart has come forward to reveal why Microsoft scrapped the project.
In a poignant announcement, Dutch indie developer Paladin Studios bid farewell after an impressive run spanning “almost 19 years.”
Considering the level of games they made, I'm surprised that more than 2 people worked there. 45 people (+ outsourcing) making mediocre mobile games, like cut the rope. I mean dude....Nintendo stooped to new lows in quality development and entertainment standards.
Discover Crow Country, the upcoming survival horror game from indie studio SFB Games. Get ready for an original PlayStation-inspired gaming experience as we speak to the developers and get an inside look at the studio and game.
Nintendo made a significant move by issuing a DMCA notice to take down more than 8,500 clones of the popular Switch emulator, Yuzu.
The more they try to stop it, the more publicity it gets. The fact is that Yuzu will forever live on torrent and other sites. Nintendo is fighting an uphill battle.
There is nothing stopping these people from working on Yuzu clones and sharing them on torrent sites. Nintendo or anyone else cannot do shit about torrents or usenet.
lol Nintendo keep fighting this but it never ends. Why do they feel the need to persist? I guess they are in too deep now they have to
I'm not even surprised being as the suits within Microsoft expect everything to have Halo levels of success. Obsidian could have created an rpg gem for Xbox but Microsoft listened to the bean counters like always.
it was canned for trying new things, wasn't a bro shooter
So it was cancelled due to not having someone at MS cheering it on and pushing on your behalf . Could it be that no one took such action cause they were not impressed with what they saw .
The project was canned because obsidian didn't have a champion to push the game.
Would have been great to see Xbox One have an action RPG along the lines of Mass Effect at launch.
That's a weird way to title the article, kotor 2 isn't really a recent game of obsidian or their defining moment.
