I don't really get it either. It's not like everything has to pander to one specific demographic, so I don't get why some people think it should apply to them. I'm just happy Obsidian is releasing a new game.
It's quite clear they've made their mind up. Just wait for the game and come to your own conclusions. It's not like their opinion should influence your personal thoughts about it.
I was on the shelf regarding Bethesda for years, but it seems like it's quite clear to me now that they're just trying to milk the Fallout franchise for all it's worth.
I should have realized this ages ago.
