It's really hard to get excited for new story content on this game when the writing for it has so far been sub par even by Bethesda's standards.

I said it when Fallout 3 came out:

Only Bethesda could make post apocalyptic hookers boring.

The stories of sex work in Fallout 1 & 2 were dark and complex and Fallout 3's were just fucking corny.

Getting a radioactive STD filming porn or being a gimp to a super mutant if you don't beat them at arm wrestling is complex? lol

I don't know about complex, but pimping out your spouse is pretty dark (though it's mostly played for sex jokes so I doubt it's intentionally so).
