I’m now a bureaucrat. I thank you all for your support, and ensure you it won’t be misplaced. The vote passed 37-Nil.
69.l25 (AKA Geckanon)’s result ended a bit differently. With 12 yesses, 9 now, and 5 neutrals, it seemed clear most thought he was up to the job, but had concerns over timing and commitment. As such the result has been suspended for a month, after which time those issues will be reconsidered by the bureaucrats.

Sold Out… For now.

Well, its seems our fears have indeed been confirmed. Fallout 1 2 and Tactics have been removed from Gog.com, and although they did seem to continue to be present initially, they’ve also fallen from steam too.

Bethesda have tweeted however that they are working on reading them to steam as quick as they can. No word on Gog.com

Personally, I find this rather disappointing. Bethesda knew this was coming for years, it was a part of the original deal to purchase the titles from Interplay, and was reconfirmed in the legal case 2 years ago (That long already? still feels like yesterday).

Here’s hoping however they get the same treatment as Arena and Daggerfall, which are free downloads off the Bethesda Website.
