Should Fallout Leave Bethesda?

Post » Sat Jan 16, 2016 2:05 pm

It is my own personal assertion that Bethesda deep down does not really want to do Fallout as it should be done, and so should sell off the Fallout IP to another company that can do a better job of it (Obsidian please? Maybe a Kickstarter to make a Fallout that stays true to the original intent.)

We have to answer to players, no matter what. When you work for a publisher, you have to answer to both, and the two of them may not see eye-to-eye. I'd rather the player pay me directly for something they want, and I'd rather talk with them throughout the process to make sure I'm delivering something they want as well.

I'm guessing you haven't read the 3 million similair posts with as much bile generating flame bait. So in answer to your question, no Bathesda is doing just fine. I loved all four of the previous fallouts, FO2 being my favorite till now. Falling in love with 4 has been a blast and I can't wait for the mods/dlc.

waiting for lock.



Honestly, if any company wants to make a fallout game, it should a post-apocalyptic ip of their own. Bethesda bought the fallout ip, so if they want to destroy it, let them.

I don't care if they technically own it, they have no right to destroy Fallout. ;)

If someone thought you weren't using your gaming platform the way it was intended (according to their esteemed opinion), and they demanded you give it away, would you listen to such a person?

There are plenty of other topics discussing this in a similar way, this is closed for flamebait.
