Because of the sad state of creativity stagnation than modern AAA videogame are.
Yeah there indie games, sometimes done by people who used to work on those titles, like New Vegas, Morrowind, Baldur’s Gate, Neverwinter Nights, etc, but their are in different scopes, mostly always lack some things who would make then perfect.
In the last two generations of consoles, i can count on my fingers the games who did things right like on Old Games, Baldur’s Gate 3 is one of them, with Lariant sharping their skills with the D:OS duology to deliver a experience like that, and The Witcher 3, beside the main story sucks, but the side quests and world building are top tier.
The profit seeking focus on multiplayer and “live service” games are what killed AAA single player games. It’s why the latest TES game and the last Fallout game are both MMOs. It’s why Rockstar Games have only made one since discovering GTA Online and why studios like Arkane got turned to slop. It’s why indies with highly motivated dev teams and smaller budgets are the only place where you can find that innovation.
It’s a sorry state the videogame industry got into, and the worst part is the fact than we aren’t the main public or the focus now.
Us, people who grown up with this industry enjoying top tier quality games, have been overshadowed as clients by a new generation of gamers “domesticated” by the industry
They born in a world were microtransactions, day one patches, Season pass, are the normal.
Wait until the get used to don’t own their hardware to play games and be totally at the mercy of the cartel of the games company
Fucking why are we still getting articles and shit about this?
I mean, the last mainline single-player Fallout game was Fallout 4. If you preferred Fallout: New Vegas to it, then that’s maybe the Fallout game you like best.
And in the nadir, people look back to the zenith, to try to figure out what went wrong, and what can be learned from it, to try to move toward a new dawn.
Fucking why are we still getting articles and shit about this? 16 years of this shit isn’t enough?
Don’t get me wrong, I love New Vegas, but this constant glazing/circlejerk of this game year after year is getting ridiculous.

The Witcher 3 is a decade old 😭

it makes it hard to even talk about new vegas anymore

Fallout 76 is an online multiplayer game.
Fallout 5 isn’t going to come out for some time.
Because after a zenith, comes a nadir.
