Buddy linked me to a 4chan thing talking about how Obsidian Entertainment might be going under, listing a response from Chris Avellone on Twitter. 4chan isn't exactly known for reliability, though, so I'm holding off on forming up a lynch mob to march to Bethesda's offices until I can get confirmation.
Mr. Avellone's Twitter, with the tweet in question: https://twitter.com/#!/ChrisAvellone...62439394643968
I actually made a Twitter account for the sole purpose of telling Mr. Avellone to put up a Kickstarter for Obsidian Entertainment. If it turns out Bethesda didn't fucking pay them due to a motherfucking technicality... well, fuck Bethesda. I'll throw the $73 ($50 for FNV, $5 for each story DLC, $3 for the GRA DLC) into it, since they should have gotten that money for making such a wonderful game.
Understand, Obsidian Entertainment is home to a lot of the original team that created Fallout and Fallout 2. These are the people that deserve your money, not Bethesda.
