Fallout 4 by Bethesda is an upcoming role-playing game that has been proven excitement worthy due to the undeniable pandemonium form the previous installments in the series. However, the bad news about to befall the fans regarding the Pip-boy absence can be more than upsetting.
As fans are the constructive backbone of any game, their requests are usually quickly attended to by the developers. But in an unfortunate twist, Bethesda plays a different tune when it comes to suggestions.
Pete Hines, Bethesda's VP of Marketing, claims that it is already too late to address the fan desires, instead, they will be focusing on the bug-related concerns and possible future updates, as reported by Game Spot.
Hines was then quoted, "Let's be honest, [right now] it doesn't matter what anybody wants for a feature in Fallout 4.The game is basically done. It was by and large done before we announced it, in terms of the features going in. You're not adding new features in May, June, July in the year you're releasing; you're trying to get everything fixed."
As this may result to possible judgment that Bethesda does not take the side of fans on the matter, but also attempted to juggle the feedback and comments of fans from other gaming fields in order to make Fallout 4 much more successful. More in-game news are consistently reported by IGN.
"All of that stuff is important. A good developer knows how to take all that and figure out how to address it," Hines explained further on. He said that it would be acceptable to do one thing well at a time, rather than multiple things which cannot be done perfectly. Adding to that, Mr. Hines said that one must know which situations will offer a better win, the ones with better opportunities and those that are more difficult than others.
On a different side of things, a more controversial bit of news recently emerged. According to Forbes, the Fallout 4: Pip-Boy Edition is no longer available. With the mass sales of the said collector's edition, Pete Hines also clarified that they will no longer make more Pip-Boy's for Fallout 4 due to production issues. This may be sad for the true collectors who plainly want to get their hands on it.
Fallout 4 is designated to be released on November 10. A few more months to await, and all the game's noise may be put to an end. Or will it?
