Obsidian's next-gen title "already looking great," teases CEO Urquhart
Something next-gen is cooking over at Project Eternity and South Park developer Obsidian Entertainment, but CEO Feargus Urquhart "can't really talk about" what it is, including whether it's a new IP or not.
The studio boss confirmed they're "around 100" developers, with "around 15" of that working on Project Eternity. Urquhart couldn't really breakdown numbers for their "other projects" on the go.

The team wanted to strike that "high standard of visual quality" the likes of Icewind Dale defined. As times have changed they can also sprinkle in dynamic water and rustling foliage.

Obsidian Entertainment's Chris Avellone feels some advancements in the RPG genre are greatly better than others, as some are robbing us of the thrill we should get out of exploration and triumph.
The big offenders are the likes of journals and quest compasses planning our routes for us. These have been more for "player convenience," he says, but it waters down the RPG experience.
