>>77687096todd howard uses his weird corpospeak to beat around bushes about whether or not the show is canon because he doesnt want to alienate people that only interact with products in the periphery (has done this with before eso and fallout 76)
but of course there are mistakes/inconsistencies in the show with the games, even with the ones bethesda has developed that make them incompatible
if he had just said outright the show is its own thing, no one would get upset but PRODUCT SYNERGY demands that you make an extended universe that all connects
and the general treatment of certain subjects of the original games and of new vegas just makes you wonder just what the hell is going on in their heads because its hard to look at what theyre doing in a way that doesnt read as malicious
