Comments on Fallout now
On 20th November 2015, Brian Fargo was interviewed about some of his works as current head of InXile Entertainment. One of such comments was that he seamed to dislike how the current holder of the Fallout title was taking Fallout out of its roots and leaning the genre into parts that Fallout was trying to avoid being back in 2003 with Blackisle's third fallout title.

Recapping form an earlier interview he stated in late May of 2015, stating "Bethesda Did A Great Job With Fallout". Which Brian says now that he doesnt know what Beth was doing in the works for Fallout 4. "If we could have saved the title from selling it out back in 2003, then we at Interplay would have caught on and made our own first person style Fallout at some point." Brian concluded.
