Paid mods are always controversial. Just look at Bethesda’s latest attempt at creating a system designed to facilitate such a thing having proven pretty much as polarising as its predecessors, even if things have died down a bit since that bit of Starfield Trackers Alliance mission controversy back in June.
It's October 23, aka Fallout Day, and the folks behind massive mod Fallout: London have elected to celebrate in their own special way - by officially revealing that their creation has now been grabbed on GOG/com by over a million players.
Stepping outside of Vault 13 in the original Fallout remains one of the medium's greatest moments - finding the decomposing corpse of Ed ("Ed's dead") and realising that the erstwhile explorer didn't get more than few feet from the Vault door is such a chilling moment. Fallout: Vault 13 is - was - a total conversion mod that would remake the 1997 original using the engine for Fallout 4; another fan game, like Fallout London, the New Vegas rebuild project, and Nuevo Mexico that would have been ideal as we wait on Fallout 5. The bad news is that Vault 13's development has now officially been suspended. But you can still kind if play it.
