I'm very conflicted about F3. One one hand I want it to tank because Bethesda just isn't...right, for it. On the other hand, I love Fallout and I want more.
However Bethesda do not seem to carry the franchise forward. It's not an evolution or a revolution they're making, more like a devolution. If they expected to branch out from TES they've chosen what might possibly be their downfall. However they also might just reach casual console gamers and make it a success

I hope not. I'd hate for F3 to be the standard the other fallouts are measured against.
