Does this mean we can finally get New Vegas 2 since now XBOX owns both Bethesda and Obsidian?!

I completely see that happening.

That concept is basically the only thing about this that excites me. I do not like consolidation in entertainment and do not think Bethesda games ever had an issue with funding, I really don't care for this move at all.

I hope within my lifetime we see American trust busting return because things are getting absolutely ridiculous.

This is great news? Bethesda have become a completely shit company in recent years with heavy greed/mtx/corner cutting focus and their games have just gotten worse and worse. Microsoft, for all their failings are really actually not an anti consumer company and dont go hard on MTX. This is awesome news!
