Forum:Bethesda and Obsidian

I understand that Bethesda is the publisher, but Obsidian is the developer for this one, but Im curious where the line is exactly drawn since New Vegas is apparently to be similar to FO3. Is Obsidian going to copy Bethesda's style, but otherwise be doing it all, or is Bethesda going to be doing some backseat driving?

Don't quote me on this, but I believe its the first one. Knight Captain Ski (talk) 20:07, April 13, 2010 (UTC)

Since Bethesda is the owner of the IP they will have say as the game is being made. But Obsidion is doing the programing. As to if Obsidian is 'going to copy Bethesda's style', here is a tidbit from the May issue of Gameinformer.

From the sound of this, IMO, we can expect a terrefic new chapter to add to the FO universe. Cpt. E. Blackadder 01:36, April 14, 2010 (UTC)
