The trailer looks great, but I know better than to trust trailers at this stage.
Skyrim is popular because of its modding capabilities. I would have never touched it after the first 60 hours if it didn’t have a great modding community.
If you want a similar cow to milk, you have to be prepared to invest into creating good modding tools.
Well, they didn’t make the Gamebryo engine that NV was built on, that was provided by Bethesda. Not saying Obsidian couldn’t pull it off, but they don’t have the same kind of experience building engines that Bethesda does. The writing is top notch though.
Most of their games at this point are pretty different than Bethesda rpgs. Pentiment, Grounded, Pillars of Eternity, Tyranny, Pathfinders, Stick of Truth etc. They’ve actually gone on to make some pretty unique titles, while Bethesda has milked the rpg cow for pretty much their entire existence.

I mean, surely New Vegas was pretty much the only Bethesda Rpg that didn’t need a shit ton of mods to be playable? Haha
