7 years. No less, no more. That's a whole lot of time spent perfecting those post-apocalyptic vibes.
Actually, Fallout 4's development timeline is a bit of a masterpiece tale in the gaming industry. It officially took them 7 years, but if you consider the planning stages, it's easily more. From conceptual ideas post-Fallout 3 to its grand release in 2015, Bethesda didn't rush their art.
Only 7 years to create a game as expansive and detailed as Fallout 4? That's both impressive and a tad bit unbelievable. Makes you appreciate all those little details even more.
