This deal is beneficial for both Obsidian and MS. Obviously MS has money and needed to raise its studio count. They didn't get their bonus for Fallout as it missed out on its metacritic score by 1 point (according to wiki).Īs good as your portfolio may well be, you can still be on the verge of bankruptcy.

Obsidian seem to have been surviving for the past few years thanks to kickstarter campaigns and nearly disappeared a few years ago - literally nearly went bankrupt but a successful kickstarter based on a cancelled game bought them time.
