Bethesda NEVER Understood Fallout Video Essay

When I say Wasteland is dead, I mean that any future games are going to be last gasps as they try to hit the market as hard as Fallout did. Fallout crushed any hope of Wasteland being a big thing, and all in all Wasteland 2 was low quality compared to literally any turn based game I've ever played and I managed to find Fallout 4's story more coherent.

The series as a whole is never going to be as good as the Fallout series and is never going to hit the market as hard as Fallout. Maybe they have a chance at beating shitty ripoffs, but the team has displayed an inability to write anything other "evul robits from base coochie". As well and good as that is, Base Cochise is played out and I'm thankful Wasteland 3 has a chance not to be about the robots.
 
I was fairly disappointed with Wasteland 2, and Bard's Tale 4. With both games InXile eschewed the proper series' gameplay, grafting on the mechanics & presentation of other games instead.
(Same as Bethesda did with FO3)

So much lost potential; and at such great expenditure.
