Obsidian Entertainment Mystery Project Countdown Continues

The mysterious Obsidian countdown is now down to one, likely meaning that we’ll have to wait just another day to see whatever the folks at Irvine have been cooking revealed. And of course, as we’ve come to expect, more cryptic text follows the number change, some of it hidden in the page’s source code:

“This world wants to drag us down, it does. It made you a Watcher. No one asks for that. And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around my neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.”

!–. T . X X I T Y —
!– There is no sleep for the Watcher. —

It’s looking more and more likely for the codename/title of the project to be “Eternity”, as previously speculated, and with the recently surfaced news of an Obsidian Kickstarter profile, it seems like we might be starting to get an idea of what Obsidian intends to do. Of course, there is also the chance that the Kickstarter profile is completely unrelated, or that Obsidian decided to ultimately not pursue that road.

Only one day to find out, I guess…
