Regardless of the RPG Codex echochamber that tells us Fallout 4 and/or Creation Club is worse than Hitler, it is a cold hard fact that Fallout's reputation has been greatly enhanced thanks to Bethesda and their acquisition of the license. They put Fallout on the map.

Prior to Fallout 3 most people hadn't heard of Fallout except for maybe its biggest flop on consoles Brotherhood of Steel or as a niche post-apocalyptic rpg on PC. Bethesda took the license and transformed it from a nostalgically popular PC game into an international property that is recognized worldwide and headlines at E3 to cheering crowds.

It was Bethesda's stylistic choices, from the design of the Pip boy to the choice of old timey radio station, that gave it its broad appeal to audiences, from young to old.

I'd say that Fallout's reputation has already been assured for the next decade and beyond.

Randy Pitchford is correct in preventing any old builds of DNF from ever seeing the light of day.

I only played Skyrim for 2 hours. An hour of that was spent in the character creation screen creating the perfect orc face.

What's the percentage of people left on the Codex who even know who Aerie is? Less than 10%? 5%?

And if the above is not already a true statement, it won't be that many more years before it becomes true...
