Neverwinter Nights 2
Alpha Protocol
Fallout: New Vegas
Dungeon Siege III

Pillars of Eternity
Armored Warfare

There are some really good games on there, but the most interesting bit is down at the bottom: The “???,” that is, suggesting that something new and secret is in the works. Sure, it could indicate nothing more than high hopes for the future, but when the studio was asked about its current undertakings earlier today, it was what you might call coy in response:
Oh you know, stuff and things.

I’ve reached out to Obsidian to see if they’re willing to share more, but in the meantime, remember this: Obsidian co-founder Chris Avellone, who left the company in 2015 but has remained very active in RPG development, recently maybe-sort-of teased something of his own on Facebook. Coincidence? Probably, yes, but if you’re willing to run with the conspiracy theory long enough you end up with Avellone coming back to Obsidian to make a new Fallout game. That’s a dream I’d like to hang onto.
