→ Xbox lays off 268 more employees, merges Obsidian into Bethesda, and puts Activision in charge of Halo, PC Gamer
Fuck. Microsoft has just killed Obsidian Entertainment and folded it into Bethesda. Obsidian produced some of my favourite RPGs of all time. The writing was kind of on the wall, though. Another studio that went too woke to be financially viable; sacrificing good story and good gameplay for THE MESSAGE and not being able to sell enough games as a result of it. Still, horrible news. What a sad day.
