Well, a few weeks ago, I had an idea for a short stopgap video to bridge the lack of content between my Alan Wake breakdown and the upcoming Cyberpunk Part 4.
Long story short, it's now a 53-minute documentary about the business side of Interplay, Black Isle Studios, and the long road to essentially cancelling Fallout as a franchise, then selling it to Bethesda in a desperate attempt to save a poorly managed company.
Tentatively, it will be titled: "Fallout Was Sold, Not Saved," or "How Bad Business Vaulted the Fallout Franchise."
I hope this all seems interesting to you. I've finished the script and am wrapping up voiceover in the next couple of days. I'm going to try to breeze through this video as fast as possible (while still having a sleek and entertaining presentation), so that I can get back on to Cyberpunk as soon as I can.
I will also be working on another director's commentary, exclusive to Patreon/YouTube members. Most likely covering "Why Fallout Isn't Fallout," from 2017. I hope you'll enjoy!
