Imagine an Obsidian fallout if they had a decent amount of dev time

    So, context for those not familiar is that Fallout: New Vegas had a limited development period.

    The game had a somewhat short development cycle of 18 months.

    You forgot the best part where despite the insanely short dev time, a big part of their payment was tied to the game's metascore some time after release. They missed the mark by 1 point (out of 100), and didn't even get a fraction of the sum as a result.
