Grounded 2

They genuinely put out a lot of shit.

They put out Grounded 2 last year.

They put out The Outer Worlds 2 last year.

They put out Avowed last year.

you know that's that's what it is uh so a studio was one of the studios in the july thing though that had the most layoffs uh yeah they had 52 layoffs uh you know ground we

mentioned it back then terrible idea terrible idea to take the company that makes games and go okay we're gonna cut them and then we're gonna put them in mines to make games

Yes, and it is largely because of last year, because Grounded 2 performed well, but Avowed and Outer Worlds 2 didn't meet sales expectations.

But I would also say Game Pass is kind of killing your sales expectations.

But it doesn't stop there, actually.

Bethesda will now manage Obsidian as they continue to work on their Fallout project, and for now at least, Bethesda has confirmed that Obsidian is also able to continue work on other projects that they've already announced, all that need continuing support like Grounded 2.

Playground games and Turn 10 will also merge into one studio focused solely on Fable and Forza, and Candy Crush developer King will now include all of Microsoft's casual games division.

Big day for your gran who reads the weekly solitaire patch notes.

Obsidian will always be distinctly Obsidian, but we'll see where they go.

I mean, I love that Grounded 2 is still a thing.

They're gonna work on that.

That's a, a, a fun passion project that I give a big thumbs up to in the survival crafting world.

i would say no mmos no uh you know uh nothing that's like um gonna take over your life type thing jump in easily jump out easily

Grounded 2.

Grounded's a good one.

Yeah.

It was fun.

But I did get a taste.

The reason I recommended Grounded 2, Ains, is because I also covered it when they talked about the newest update, Into the Abyss.

And it made me get a hankering for it.

But yeah, this very much excites me.

Like, again, Obsidian working on a Fallout game is great, we knew that was happening, but, like, you know, maybe they get more push behind Grounded 2 as well, because they're still working on that.

Grounded 2's dead.

No,

it's not.

yeah

like switching between uh jobs and like that it's really dope great um there's a bunch of other stuff that i play i mean um i forgot to mention over like the last couple months jack and i have a world in um in grounded 2.

Okay.

Yeah, it's weird.

And I don't, I don't doubt it.

I- I'm looking forward to Grounded 2.

I'm waiting on Grounded 2 because it's not out fully yet.

I waited for Grounded 1 until it had the 1.0 release what had all the content, and then we-

Yeah

... you know, went into it.

I'm waiting for that for Grounded 2, 'cause it looks good.

It looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun.
