Not to mention the vast majority of the current Fallout fanbase are only fans because Bethesda revived the series.

I'm a believer in death of the author. I agree that your own perception of it is more important than the intention of the author/creator. Still doesn't make it non-canon material. Just means that you don't consider it canon.

Well that was a whole lot of denial. The fact of the matter is that the vast majority of current Fallout fans were introduced to the series by Fallout 3. It's pretty much just the Fallout loyalists (who Bethesda has chosen wisely to ignore) that cling to Fallout 3 not being canon. But I mean...

Fallout 3 is factually canon in the eyes of the Fallout fanbase at large and the people who own the IP. Doesn't get much more canon than that.

Simple question. Does Fallout 3 being officially canon bother you? I'm pretty indifferent on the subject, myself. I like the old Fallout games and the new ones. I think Fallout 3 fits somewhat nicely within the canon but I'd like to hear your thoughts.
