Quote of Creative Director Matt Hansen about white people.

[Niob]

Quote: "Reminder to Black artists out there who are looking for portfolio reviews or job advice: my DMs are open, and you will always have my priority.
We got too many crusty white dudes in this field, please let me help you replace me one day. I want to go back to living in the woods

Just so you can make an informed decision...

Bring racist against white people is not.

Even without the white people part, it's still blatant racism. The only reason he wants to promote some people, is because they are black.

Let's replace the first part, see how you like it and how it's "fair":

"Reminder to White artists out there who are looking for portfolio reviews or job advice: my DMs are open, and you will always have my priority."

Exactly. Don't permit these people to gaslight you into thinking it is otherwise.

"Reminder to Black artists out there who are looking for portfolio reviews or job advice: my DMs are open, and you will always have my priority."

Im fairly sure black artists dont need handouts or scraps from his table.
How patronising, to assume that "black artists" wont succeed without racist pandering by the likes of him.
Well Avowed has just been un-wishlisted by this owner of POE 1&2, Outer Worlds, Tyranny, Dungeon Siege, Fallout New Vegas, KOTR, Neverwinter Nights etc.
Someone like me should be a shoe-in, but with the stupid games Obsidian are playing with identity politics (a divisive, patronising and caustic ideology) - I wont be playing Avowed.

I thought DEI was all about Inclusivity?

Only to certain races and certain genders and that there is only one valid opinion.

His DM probably aren't the only thing he opens wide to them.

Best response to this guy is from Adhemar in First Knight....

Yikes! That's some problematic racism and sexism! Guess I will be passing on support this!

Later Obsidian, your little "artist" here made me ignore your entire company for the foreseeable future. It was fun back in the NV days, but honestly you haven't made a good game since Pillars 2. (And it sold very poorly, as you love to state)

I think you mean Pillars 1, since Pillars 2 did a bunch of this modern audience stuff like this current game....

Is he drunk? I'm not joking i'm seriously asking.
Why the marketing department is not stopping this madman?

[Nihrahk]

I really can't help but laugh tbh. Once this game flops, Obsidian is likely gonna get shut down. All because they hired a deranged psycho. Too bad Obsidian got infested by DEI, because they used to make masterpieces like New Vegas, which is still one of the best Fallout games to this day. That was the old Obsidian though, and the original team of that game is completely gone.

rope kid is still over there, fighting the good fight for Great Justice. One day, like Matt Hansen he will gift his position to the less fortunate, but for now he works to make Obsidian the best it can be.

Feb 2025 is going to be all about Avowed breaking records, no question about it!

Uh hello, Based department ?
