Chatting with
CVG, Bethesda's Pete Hines talks a bit about development of
Fallout 3 and how downloadable content will play a roll in the game's future. In general, Hines says that the studio wants to focus all their energy on the core game, making it the best it can be and if they don't get that right then "nobody's going to want to download anything for it anyway". But Hines' attitude towards DLC isn't completely off, saying that after development wraps up on the game and bug testing kicks off, then the dev team will start looking at their
Fallout 3 DLC possibilities. So, we wouldn't expect to see
Fallout 3 content hitting the Marketplace the week of or weeks after release. Shucks.

...downloadable content will play a role. role. just a bit worse than "chalk full."
but sweet screen capture nevertheless.

Oh Bethesda, you made so much money off of my purchases for Oblivion that you don't want a little more. I'm good with a month or two afterwards, but still...

Thats a good thing. I always feel like if the DLC comes out the same week that I am paying extra to unlock something that is problay already on the freaking disc.
