I don't think anybody or even the article has any issue with this. The article takes issues with populated settlements and their respective cultures not progressing at all or even not providing any reason for existing the way they do.
Okay sure, I think SOME settlements make sense like Rivet City. I don't remember exactly how it went in to detail but weren't the scientists there making crops there? Isn't that some sort of progression? Isn't there caravans going all around the Capital wasteland? I know they're small compared to the big ones in FO1 but they're something. Megaton might be the hardest to defend and I don't want to. Only thing I can fathom is Colin Moriarty uses his riches to keep it going so he can get richer.I feel like that area in the US is not exactly organized and well put together like in the West. Hell the chapter of BoS is with conflict with itself. It's all a big warzone ready to happen. Everything is almost at a standstill for a reason. The Enclave are planning to take over so they can mold it in to their own thing while the BoS is determined to stop them because Lyons ignored their main objective.
In no way am I saying is FO3 is perfect, hell, I think the shandification of Fallout 3 video is brilliant. But I don't see how these flaws make FO3 a bad game because of these mistakes.
