He's right. If they'd rushed to get a game out in time for the show it would have been a piece of shit and eroded the brand.

Plus they made a fuckton on new fo4 purchases when show released for zero additional cost. Steam had a killer sale for all the fallout games when the show released. Seems like no brainer especially because you never know if a show will be a hit. Look at Witcher, it never really caught on to the larger market outside of its already existing fans.

fo4 is basically free. i got into it a few years ago, quite late, and paid like 10 bucks for the whole thing with all the DLCs on xbox and like 4$ on steam
