No Fallout 3 Demo [Apr 21, 2008, 6:40 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments

has word from Pete Hines of Bethesda Softworks, who says a demo for Fallout 3 is
not in the cards:
When you build it as one thing, there's no way to portion off a section and have it stand on its own without putting the whole game in the demo, which we're just not going to do. And it doesn't really capture the fun of a game like an Elder Scrolls or a Fallout, where you can go where you want and do what you want. So no demo, sorry.
All you dummies whining for a demo realise that the quality of the final product WILL suffer because of the time invested in producing the demo, right?
Software development is a hideously complex process, especially for games of the scale and scope of something like Fallout 3. Saying that all they have to do is "section off part of the world and write a few fun quests" is goddamn retarded. That's weeks upon weeks of design, development and testing work that could have been better used fixing bugs with the main product.
Get a damn clue before going off on these stupid rants.
