Yeah, I don't recall this either. At all. The whole thing was pretty heavily slanted towards iOS, from his "Back when the iPhone came out we loved playing games on it" to Apple working on it with them.

He did, explicitly.
Just before he said they had worked with Apple and it would be rolling out on iOS tonight. Unless it was deliberately misleading, it is coming to android.

If it takes a whole year's worth of wages for you to buy an iPhone then you should get a better job bro.

it's 2015 and people are still surprised by games not getting released on Android.

They said it is going to be available tonight. A little different than now but it should be up soon.
Edit: they also said they should post a link on their blog but it is looking dead :http://www.bethblog.com

He said no f2p energy timers. With all the base building, you think it's just gonna happen right away? Like you hit the button and it's built?
There aren't any timers.
Might have something to do with market share, which is decidedly in Android's favor.
That's exactly what he said.
Yes, that's precisely what he said it is.
Uhh yes. Thats what he said.

Yes. That's exactly what he said. You build something, and it's immediately there.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
No kidding, if it's a permanent exclusive that's a big market to leave ignored.

1. Extreme fragmentation makes it a nightmare to develop for
2. Much lower userbase among gamers
3. Far worse tools and support to create games
4. Far more hackable
There's four good reasons it's not coming to Android right there.

Platforms aside. This looks so freaking good. I love the art style and how it has the game's jokes. Naming babies, letting people out into the wild. Never thought I'd like a mobile game being presented in a conference.
What? As if number 4 counted for a free game.

That excuse would have worked a couple years ago but now Android is the most popular OS for smartphones.

Will have to wait and play it to see if they hid any F2P microtransaction stuff in there somehow, but if it really operates as advertised it could be that Bethseda developed this thing not with the idea to make it a revenue producer, but rather as a glorified marketing tool for Fallout 4.

I mean, yea, people are allowed to be angry that it's coming to one phone OS, when others are popular as well.

iOS only can fuck off.
He said the PipBoy app would be on iOS and Android, not the game.
TBH, i wouldn't play it even if it were available. Not a phone gamer at all.
PC versions plz?
