Part of the contractual agreement between the studios was that Obsidian would only earn their "bonus" if the game performed well and got an 85 on Metacritic. Somehow, FO:NV missed that rating at the last moment and only scored an 84, denying obsidian the promised money.

Ha, as if Obsidian would work on another fallout when they didn't get paid for the last one.

The rare sort of Engineer who took classes in Finance and Statistical Analytics who can work out a past-present-future cash flow diagram on a whiteboard in like 5min because he never uses the compound interest factor tables and instead memorized the formulas.

If by "Decimate" you mean "Reduce by a tenth" then it's already happened.

I'm so happy you're absolutely fine with your security and privacy being compromised, but it doesn't make it right.

Does it matter even if they do? The company has lost consumer trust and respect going into the future.

I'm also running a Gigabyte high-end right now and I've got absolutely no complaints. I really enjoy the BIOS/UEFI menu.

Kind of ironic that they chose a thumbnail image of a character from a game suffering a slow decline and death due to being abandoned by the studio, with item server outtages and waves of bots and hackers that the community have created their own methods to deal with.

Other than that, I completely unironically agree!
