I've never liked post-apoc.
I've managed to completely block Eternity out.
Don't matter diddly. There is absolutely no such thing as franchise rape, because franchises are not real entities that can be raped. To pull off something like that, they'd need to instead hunt down and destroy every copy and info on the older games (plus New Vegas). This sort of thing is rarely tried because it doesn't work and it gives you bad rep for a long time (see, Nosferatu: Symphonie des Grauens). Fact remains that nothing Bethesda does can do anything to change the original game. Nothing. Zilch. Nada. They'll always remain the same, so you should do like Alan Moore says instead of what he does. I'll also let you know that overall Bethesda was p. cool to us at Van Buren, their primary concern was largely about us not using an engine they now legally own. We didn't get the kind of bullshit like Vaulderie got from CCP. MCA was still coolest.
That would actually make a pretty fantastic game.
