Executive Producer: Lawrence Liberty. Looks like he’s doing other things, last being Marvel Snap.
Producer: Mikey Dowling
He last did Inkulinati at Obsidian in 2023.
Producer: Jason Fader. His last credit is the Fallout: New Vegas DLC Lonesome Road, so I doubt that he’s around.
Producer: Matt Singh. Last credited on Fallout: New Vegas, so probably not around.
Producer: Tess Treadwell. Last credited on South Park: The Stick of Truth in 2014, so probably not around.
Additional Production: Brandon Adler. He was credited with “Additional System Design” on Pillars of Eternity II at Obsidian, with some playtesting elsewhere after that. Might be around.
Addition’s Production: Matt Rorie. No credits since Fallout: New Vegas in 2010, probably out of the picture.
Lead Artist: Joseph A. Sanabria. Last credited with Armikrog in 2015, so he’s probably out of the picture.
Concept Artist/Vault Boy Artist: Brian Menze. Last credited with The Outer Worlds at Obsidian in 2019, so he might still be around.
World Building Expert: Scott Everts. Ditto.
User Interface Artist: Jason Sereno. Last credited on New Tales From the Borderlands from Gearbox in 2022, so he’s probably elsewhere.
Character Artist: Daniel Alpert. Last credited for Pemitent at Obsidian, so probably available.
Character Artist: Aaron Brown. Last credited for Planescape: Torment – Enhanced Edition at Beamdog, so he’s probably elsewhere.
Character Artist: Kevin Manning. Last credited for Red Faction: Guerrilla - Re-Mars-tered at Volition in 2018, so he’s elsewhere and may out of the game.
Environment Artist: Cochey Cantu. Last credited for LEGO 2k Drive at Visual Concepts Entertainment in 2023, so he’s probably elsewhere.
Artist: Roger Chang. Last credited on Marvel Spider-Man 2 at Insomiac in 2023, so he’s probably elsewhere.
I dunno. I’m not gonna go through the whole list, but I’d say from that sample that while there are still a number of Fallout: New Vegas people around at Obsidian, approximately 2/3rds are elsewhere.
You forget the fact that if Obsidian were given the keys to Fallout again, I doubt they’d have much trouble enticing back the critical talent they would want back from FO:NV. Heck, who wouldn’t want to jump back into the series and do right by it given the fandom that has just come on board and the fandom still rooting for NV all these years later.
Here’s a list of credits for Fallout: New Vegas:

Obsidian was purchased by Microsoft, so both Bethesda and Obsidian are under that umbrella.
Looking at some of it:
