"I guess lastly, my hope is that we create a true Fallout game. The Lead Designer, most likely, will be Chris Avellone, who was the Lead Designer on Torment and the twisted mind behind New Reno in Fallout 2. If there is anyone outside of Chris Taylor who understand the Fallout universe it is him. He certainly isn't going to let us make an unFallout game. I was just reading a fifty page document today about the Fallout world timeline, and his thoughts on keeping the world continuum going."

How interesting! A New Reno, a city that has NOTHING to do with retro-tech of the 1950s, a city of drugs, sex and mafia that had no place in post-nuclear science fiction of 1950s, a city that lives as if it didn't change one bit for more than 200 years, suddenly becomes an object of proudness! And since when is the knowledge of a game made for profit in a very short amount of time becomes a sign of understanding the Fallout universe?!
Torment was an excellent game, and a definite classic of the genre just like Fallout, but one thing is making a game with fantasy running amok, and another is making a sequel to a game that is nothing like Torment! I would give Chris Avelonne the benefit of the doubt if I haven't seen the New Reno!
This again proves that Black Isle is going in the wrong direction as they did in Fallout 2, and the voices of the people who can stand up and say WHY Fallout was so great are falling on deaf ears. We've been pushed to the side and betrayed! Feargus Urquart has betrayed the Fallout fans by giving us this shit about real-time combat and putting this guy in charge (and knowing that he is a division director, I would call his 'wishes and thoughts' a done deal, a blueprint for making next Fallout RPG)!
I stayed aside and didn't raise my voice about Tactics because it was a spinoff game that proved to further drift away from its Fallout origins. But this time I will NOT be silent! I will not let Feargus Urquart and his band of money-making TRAITORS continue RAPING FALLOUT UNIVERSE!
