They were having breakfast at that year’s E3, just after Xbox announced it was acquiring Undead Labs, Playground Games, Ninja Theory, and Compulsion Games, as well as establishing The Initiative. At the time, Urquhart wasn’t even aware of the industry-shaking news. He was, as he tells me, “plugged into his own stuff,” focused on making Avowed look as appealing as possible to people like Musler who could potentially help Obsidian get it out the door in a few years. He made the pitch for Avowed. Musler responded by suggesting Urquhart repeat his pitch again…this time in a bigger room, with more Xbox folks listening in.

It wasn’t until the middle of that week that Musler called Urquhart back and told him that what he had really sold Xbox on was acquiring the entirety of Obsidian, the studio he had been at the head of since 2003.

According to Urquhart, acquisition by a giant like Microsoft was a leap of faith. But what ultimately sold him on the idea were two things. The first was the substance of what Xbox was pitching: it wanted to let its acquired studios “be who they are” and retain their creative freedom and studio culture, largely unbothered by Xbox mandates.

[...] But Urquhart says the second component that convinced him was the people pitching him: he already knew Matt Booty well, and Musler too – enough to have faith in their promises. And then there was Phil Spencer.

“I didn't know Phil Spencer well at that time, I probably only talked to him once or twice up to that point,” he says. “But what's so interesting with Phil is he is this- I don't know. I don't want to say ‘persona’ in the end, because he is Phil Spencer and because he runs all Microsoft games. But now knowing him, and even what I knew [about] him back then, his reputation was just someone who was authentic and someone who doesn't BS and loves games. And that was the trust in that.”

The three of them together convinced Urquhart that he would be bringing Obsidian into a “new Microsoft” of sorts: one worth putting faith in.

“The Kinect is an example of something that became a requirement, [even for us],” he says. “We were making a game for Microsoft back in 2011 [likely its cancelled RPG, Stormlands], and that’s when the Kinect was incredibly important. And there were a lot of things where they wanted the Kinect to be more– the Kinect was cool, but how much of it really needed to be a game interface? That was one of the real questions. So there was that feeling of the forced nature of things. I hate to even say this, but I’m going to just say, [it was] one of the things that was on the lists of stuff that we had to [have].

“So we were making a role playing game and someone had this idea, and you think it was an idea that would've just been nicked off on the first list. The idea was, you’re playing the game, and you’re not doing so well in health, but your friend comes and gives you a back rub and that actually gives you more health. We laughed uncomfortably… and then it didn’t come off the list.”

Meine XS ist spürbar lauter als die SX ? Nichts was jetzt nicht katastrophal wäre aber schon ein hörbarer Unterschied. Bei Euch auch so ?



Ansonsten netter kleiner Kasten.
