yup, it makes way more sense that this is basically wolfenstein rather than an uncharted-like way after the fact

as a character indy isnā€™t that much cornier than bj but iā€™ll miss the tone. i hope they donā€™t get, letā€™s say, ā€œinsomniacedā€ (stuck on disney IP forever)

obsidian can make a totally innocuous marketing video but cannot help it feeling like theyā€™re stunting on bethesda lmao

we worked hard to make combat engaging and decided to include quest design and art direction

this key art looks sick

theyā€™re in a really good position right now where itā€™s like free money for them to make okay enough elder scrolls games since bethesda canā€™t ship anything worth a damn anymore, even though outer worlds was not objectively that exciting (especially given the unfortunate release timing comparison to outer wilds), people want these games and obsidian is finally the only credible game in town

Technically New Colossus was Wolfenstein 3, being a sequel to New Order which was itself a sequel to the non-MachineGames Wolfenstein (2009).

wolfenstein 2009 was a sequel to return to castle wolfenstein which was a remake of wolfenstein 3d which was a remake of castle wolfenstein which also had the sequel beyond castle wolfenstein

I donā€™t think we need to pretend that the machinegames wolfenstein games acknowledge 2009 very much outside of caroline becker and the kreisau circle

well know once they put out something official, but iirc the indy game takes place in the wolfenstein timeline where the hero is triumphant and specifically is in the ā€œchild eraā€
