    I think my view still stands, without bathesda that series would have ended with that weird ass “fallout: bos” for PS2. If it hadn’t been bought by bathesda, we would have no fallout 3, 4 or even NV. Cause as much as people claim it isn’t, NV uses the bones and parameters of fo3, just builds on it. We also wouldn’t have gotten the show, which was great
