Please God let Bethesda die.

Seriously, fuck them. Interplay may have fucked up a lot over the years but they're still one of my favorite game companies. Meanwhile Bethesda make boatloads of cash by putting out amateurish hack titles. There's a lot of things wrong with Interplay but by god there's even more shit wrong with Bethesda, and the people that support them.

Oh, yes.

Interplay released more good games than Bethesda will ever release in my life or until it gets shut down. Whichever comes faster.

So yeah, I'm rather biased in favour if Iply in this one.

Rather fitting that this comment is in a thread about a name, because that is about all that's left of Interplay.

I'm not much of a fan of Bethesda, but would you really want Bioware to have a monopoly on the 'RPG' market?

I approve of this. The world needs a Fallout MMO like it needs an actual nuclear holocaust.

Flip up any respectable game journalist webpage or publication and you'll soon understand that it's an undisputed fact that BioWare and Bethesda are alternating true masters of roleplaying. One less king of rpg would be a godsend.

Needless to say they're both retarded, but one look at the Bio boards should quench all doubt as to which of them is more abhorrent. Fucking Nutella, man.

Interplay in its current form has nothing to do with Fallout, or Planescape Torment, or any of those other games that were released over a decade ago. Brian Fargo was part of that, but now Herve Caen has taken over and he IS Interplay. And this Interplay has a lot to answer for. Interplay are the ones who first raped the Fallout setting. Interplay are the ones that pulled the plug on Van Buren and Baldur's Gate 3. Interplay are the ones who didn't pay the wages to their employees. And the list goes on. Compared to them Bethesda are paragons of decency.

Yeah, a backstabbing high-stakes legal battle worth millions of dollars is really immature.

If you'll see some fanart on bioware characters, where said character is eating shit, or covered in shit - you just saw biofans's infamous "Nutella" meme.

I hope Interplay will win and will create something that will finally kill Fallout as a franchise.

Fallout died a decade ago. And no, Obshitians pathetic shitgame doesn't mean shit to me. Whatever fucks both Bethesda and Interplay over works for me. Take Obsidian with you too.

As Dicksmoker says: Interplay that we love is dead. Herve's Turds are all that is left. Hate Bethesda post Morrowind, but in this case I despise Herve far more. Turfing people out on their arses without a cent while somehow still getting fat off the proceeds from IP sales and still getting funded is seriously fuck up man.

Get stripped of everything and kill yourself Herve you cunt!

Sure, two of the original developers is not that much, but still.
-PvP requires player consent

Chris Failor is trying to streamline this shit as much as he can desperately trying to fill Interplays empty pockets with money. It doesn't surprise me Jason Anderson left after he realized what a douchebag Chris Failor really is.

Because Fallout Online with unlimited PvP wouldn't fucking sell.

Yes, of course that is exactly why he left, right?
