Rumors* have it that - due to the recent success of the TV show -
Bethesda is accelerating the release of the next Fallout game.
Because if there's anything we all want, it's a Bethesda game even
/more/ rushed out of production. After all, it's the bugs and janks
that make their games so memorable, right?

shorten the writing process by replacing writers with a chatbot?

Procedural generation all the way, baby! Why hand-craft maps, quests,
characters, ANYTHING when you can get a computer to do it?

I'm sure it will all work out fine. ;-)

In truth, the rumor that Bethesda is expediting the next Fallout
remains just that: a rumor. But it's definitely something Bethesda
needs to get ahead of. They /don't/ have the best reputation right
now. A lot of their recent in-house productions have been
disappointments; maybe not flops, but seen as a step down from earlier
games. "Fallout 4" was fairly average. "Fallout 76" had an incredibly
rocky launch. "Starfield" failed to impress on almost every level.
They're continually milking "Skyrim". They're breaking mods. Their
trying to grift off the modder's hard work. They don't have anything
exciting in the pipeline.

Their PR team needs to get out there and issue the usual platitudes:
'of course we aren't going to rush out the next game. We're dedicated
to creating quality products. We're not simply chasing the next
popular trend. Other other IPs remain important to us.' The usual
schtick; say a lot without saying anything. That it's been several
days and Bethesda has remained silent does not speak well of their
management.
