Dirty Bomb - Fallout Enforcer editorial from March 16, 2003

Post by Saint_Proverbius »

<strong>[ -> Editorial]</strong>

An old, fan submitted <A href="http://www.thevats.net/content.php?id=12">editorial</A> about <b>Fallout Enforcer</b> and <A href="http://www.interplay.com">Interplay</a>. Here's a taste:
<br>
<br><blockquote>So what can Fallout fan's do at this point? Probably not alot, as it seems unlikely that Interplay will listen to it's fans. I'm sure, without me saying, a petition will start. Generally, though, those don't yield enough results, and most will be happier just to fall into the corporate scheme of things and purchase the game. Since it seems unlikely that Fallout 3, will ever enter the development phases, I've heard many people rumble on the internet that they'll just start a development house and produce Fallout 3. Although admirable, Interplay currently owns the copyright for Fallout 3 and will probably take every chance it can get to flex it's corporate muscle and pound any would be developers into the ground unless it's approved by them, which at this point seems unlikely. So really, most Fallout Fan's are left to their own devices and to watch their favorite series most likely die out.</blockquote>
<br>
<br>Sure, it's a little out of date, but what the hell? Think of it as a time capsule.<br/><a href="http://www.duckandcover.cx/content.php?id=12">Read: Dirty Bomb - Fallout Enforcer editorial from March 16, 2003</a>

Cool idea for a forum... I wonder when people are going to start discussing?

Listening to fans fucked FO2. It seems Interplay just could get the right recipe after the first Fallout came out.

Listenning to the masses is what screwed up Fallout 2, really. You have to be able to filter the good from the bad when listenning to gamers. BIS wasn't very good at that filtering aspect, which is why Fallout 2 had talking deathclaws, nearly 3000 easter eggs, and so forth. Probably why Van Buren also had a space base as well.
