Todd is truly salty about New Vegas. Lol
I think I’d be okay if we never got another Fallout game. What we’ve got is satisfying, including the Wasteland and Outer Worlds games, and the Fallout show is great too. Maybe if Bethesda had a tendency to knock our socks off with something new every time they put out a game, then I’d be excited, but that’s not the Bethesda we know.
Hm, still a bit butthurt that their best installment was made by Obsidian it seems
Well it was kind of a cheat using most of the people that created fallout 1 to make New Vegas. They really should just give it back to Tim and Leonard and team to do the next one.
Microstiff could give me the IP and still get a better game than Bethesda has ever made and I’m about as qualified as the dumpster across the street from Todd’s office.
So go ahead, make a better game than fallout 4. If you’re that good surely you can do it without the IP.
I’d have trust issues too if Iwas Bethesda and I gave another studio a chance to make a spin off of our Bethesda style RPG and then they completely failed at making it a good Bethesda style RPG, but totally succeeded at making a good RPG in general and now millions of people give you crap for not being able to make games as good as theirs even though you have made very good games, they’re just a different style than the spinoff another studio made for you and that other as style is more popular…but it’s not your style.
That’d feel pretty terrible.
After Fallout 3’s success, they should have expanded into a multi team studio. By then they’d been a publisher and developer for like 20 years. Since then they became a major publisher owning studios like iD and Machine Games and then bought by MS in 2020. It took another like 15 years and a successful TV show to realize 15+ years between entries in a series is pretty inoptimal. It’s a pretty bad fostering of talent. Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Skyrim - there’s got to be at least a few people that worked on those games that could have succeeded leading development on a Bethesda style RPG
I mostly disagree. As we have more games, it’s fine if they take longer to make.
We can always play the previous ones while we wait.

Fallout at that point would be just a realistic life-sim
That’s funny and should be disappointing.
The potential for something like Fallout is limitless. If they had brains, they would make one outside of the US for once.
(It should be disappointing that they don’t do this, but I stopped holding them to a higher standard long ago.)
Bethesda is so behind the competition, I just don’t feel a point to play any of their games after FO4.
Probably doesn’t want to get upstaged by a better dev in their (purchased) series. Again.
