People do not seem to appreciate how horribly fallout was abused.
For starters, bethesda took a series that was about rampant capitalistic greed mixed in with fascist government control with the leadup to another great war, and then put a 50s sheen on the whole thing. The game by its nature was a critique of american consumerism and the 50s overlayed by the 50s aesthetic and a worsening world conditions. Bethesda took this type of series and then made fallout a posterboy for its store, a mainline attraction, with bobbleheads, posters, fake power armored helmets, fake pip-boys, etc. The exact thing that the original fallouts had stood against. Bethesda is using fallout as the type of marketing gimmick that fallout appeared to be against. Now, if that wasn't enough, they also glorified the american patriotism, whereas in the originals america was not something to be proud of. They had long ago become despotic, going so far as to annex canada, and enforce totalitarian rule on its peoples. And in most bethesda iterations of fallout there are pro-capitalist messages like with liberty prime, or the protagonist in fallout 4. They've also reduced the opening monologue in fallout about war never changing into a meme.
Additionally, fallout was about exploring the ethics of a post nuclear world and the types of peoples and situations this would create, and bethesda decides to make vampires(?), a completely nonsensical enclave led by a retarded robot, dumber than prim slimm himself, and a town of children that have existed for centuries? Then they proceed to reduce the amount of people and situations exploring this concept to the point of fallout 76, where it is nonexistant and you simply fight bat-dragons with your friends at 12 fps, cause apparently bethesda can't optimize the engine they've been using for like 30 fucking years.
Then there's the absolute lore-rape. Not only is jet in vaults before it was ever created by myron, but it's also states away. And logged in computers terminals, so it wasn't an accidental feature of randomized loot, but a thought out decision. There's the decision in fallout 76 to put the brotherhood of steel on the other side of the continent barely after the bombs fell, despite still making their trek westward to safety, completely destroying canon. There's super mutants in almost every state now with apparently every secret organization creating the fev, not just the master. There's super mutants apparently even before the time of the master in fallout 76, someway, somehow. And if destroying the lore of the previous fallouts so thoroughly wasn't enough, they even break the lore of their own games as well. Like how you spend an entire plot and game needing a geck to fix the water purifier, despite it being the easiest thing to do in fallout 4, with two paperclips, some toilet paper, and a pencil.
The only saving grace of bethesda being the one doing the raping is they seem to be so inept at doing absolutely anything nowadays, from making an rpg, to fulfilling customer obligations, to fucking managing their own website and not leaking peoples credit card information, that they are also inept at abusing fallout. But, like a drunken, raping, idiot piece of trash, determined to get into fallouts panties, over time they've managed to do significant amounts of damage due to sheer greed, malice, and stupidity.
