He’s right. If they’d rushed to get a game out in time for the show it would have been a piece of shit and eroded the brand.
Plus they made a fuckton on new fo4 purchases when show released for zero additional cost. Steam had a killer sale for all the fallout games when the show released. Seems like no brainer especially because you never know if a show will be a hit. Look at Witcher, it never really caught on to the larger market outside of its already existing fans.
Idk, I kinda agree. Look at how many shitty Pokémon games were made in order to launch alongside with a new series or movie. Those time constraints did not do those games any favor.
So I’m happy they didn’t try to launch a new Fallout game when the series was released. I’ll be wandering the Mojave Desert until then. And if something like 76 comes out again, I might just stay there forever.
Not as if Bethesda can be coerced into releasing games in a timely manner.
They could have made a studio work on a fallout 1 and 2 remake though…
What CEO would publicly acknowledge they did a shoddy job and missed a huge profit opportunity, putting their job on the line.
They still totally dropped the ball on this one. Especially since the big thing they did do is fuck mods by updating the engine and fucked Fallout London in the process. Muppets.
Probably one that’s feeling the pressure from over 1000 workers organized into multiple unions and wants an out. At least that’s my bedtime fantasy
