Bethesda speaks out on the mixed emotions surrounding Fallout 3
The good people over at sister mag PC Zone recently spoke with developer Pete Hines from Bethesda about Fallout 3 and the mixed emotions surrounding the title. Here’s what he had to say.
“We’ve said this before and we’ll say this again: not everybody is going to agree with the game we’re making: it’s a solid-gold lock,” exclaims a tired and emotional Pete Hines when we ask him about the forthcoming Fallout 3. He’s just spent a long day plugging the hugely anticipated Oblivion expansion Shivering Isles and the inevitable query about Bethesda’s “other” RPG has reared its head. “Some people will like it, some people will hate it. Some people already like it or hate it, and they don’t even know what we’re doing yet!”
