<A href="http://www.duckandcover.net/~Slamak/en/">My Favorite Slamak</a> has interviewed <a href="http://www.duckandcover.net/Killzig/rel ... jpg">Chris Taylor</a>...
<blockquote>
<b>DJS:</b> FOT has been criticised by many for not being true to the Fallout universe and spirit, and there are certain some considerable inconsistencies. In retrospect, do you think you or anyone from the dev team could have done anything better to prevent this?
<b>CT: MHad a little more schedule time. If we hadn't felt so rushed, we would have been able to pick and choose a little better. It didn't help that we got the first completely playable beta on a Saturday, and 14 East made the decision to ship the game the following Wednesday. We should have had an open beta of the full product.

Vault Dwellers for ChrisT.
That's why I said a good portion of the blame lies on Interplay. Their QA standards are quite possibly the shittiest this side of indie devs. The funny thing is that most indie devs have a bit of integrity about their own projects.
A lot of the starting concepts and plot holes/setting holes do belong on MicroForté's shoulders, as some hardly fit in at all.
More time would have been much better, but the above in the interview just goes to show that Interplay's crappy quality control is one of the major things hurting them.
Along those lines, I wonder if Caen used moldy bread when he worked as a sandwitch gimp in his teenage years, and just kept to the same standards...
