watch the announcement that they partnered with EA and Fallout 4 will be online only, due to reasons.

You mean to tell me they are going to make a Fallout MMO? SIGN ME UP NOW.

It had been worked on, but was a casualty of the Bethseda-Interplay copyright war.

that's literally happened so many times already...

But not officially! Think of it, ESO set in the wastelands of California with a great single player story written by Bioware.

Now that you put it like that, it sounds terrible Although who doesn't want to rep grind so you can bang your robotron.

I'm kinda annoyed at people badmouthing Gamebryo when it has nothing to do with Bethesda's bugs.

Gamebryo is just one piece of middleware they use, and many developers have made games that don't crash all the time with it.

It will probably running on Creation Engine which is a licensed Gamebryo engine for Bethesda's use.

Gamebryo is not a bad engine but Bethesda can sure as hell screw it up. Though if i remember correctly Obsidian Entertainment had alot of issues with the engine when developing NV which might have forced Bethesda to actually build their own rendition of the engine for future use.

UNIVERSE, I BEG THEE
LET OBSIDIAN HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THIS GAME

ALSO THREE DOG, BECAUSE YES

It's gonna have user-made, user-paid mods, I guarantee you this. Back when Valve backpedaled, they said it was foolish that they tried doing so in an already-established and fully developed modding community. Now that Bethesda's bringing something "new" to the table, and we all know how much Bethesda wants your money, it's gonna have 'em, it's gonna run exclusively through Steam again, and it's gonna be on the Gamebryo engine. I wonder how much the Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch is gonna cost.

I really, really hate the Gamebryo engine. I hate Bethesda. I hate that we tend to slobber over games that are either in their sixth(Elder Scrolls) or fourth/fifth iteration. I'm tired of this common flavor. I'm a little bit sorry for taking a poop all over your hype train, but this dissenting voice must make its part.

Thing is, it's not the Skyrim modding community that's established, it's the TES modding community, and to a lesser extent Fallout's.

Threedog, or at least the voice actor behind him is almost certainly going to be making an appearance, as I recall some time ago(last year?) he accidentally leaked he was doing some work for the studio again.

[Yoink]

Well, hype.
I'm interested to see where it's set. Hopefully it's more FO3 and less NV... and hopefully it has a new engine.
Man, the FO3/NV engine has definitely passed its use-by date.

Uh, there is now a tear or crack of some sort at the top of the "Please Stand By" screen.

EDIT: Nah, trailer's out. INT 3.

[Guardian G.I.]

here it is

EDIT: First impressions - the graphics are very colourful and, I'd even say, cartoonish. The colour palette is the direct opposite of Fallout 3.

[Krevsin]

I'm no expert, but some of those shots looked to be in-engine.

Either way
HYPE HYPE HYPE

[Yoink]

Well... it looks worryingly like the same old engine. :-/
The character animations looked as familiar as a worn-in old shoe.
