The devs always say "we spent [x amount of time] making this game and they did it in [tiny fraction of time]!" But in reality, while the final speedrun only takes, say, 10 minutes for FO:NV, it took hundreds of thousands of man-hours to come up with all the strategies and glitches that make up the speedrun, split amongst thousands of community members, researchers, and streamers. Really, the speedrunning community is a testament to *just how much time* people DO spend on these games, that they can accomplish these crazy feats.

Microsoft now owns Bethesda, Obsidian, and InXile. Bethesda owns the Fallout franchise. The original creator of the Fallout franchise and several writers of FO1, FO2, and NV work for Obsidian. The original publisher of the Fallout franchise owns InXile and several writers of Fallout and Black Isle games work for InXile. Other NV writers are working freelance and can be hired back for new projects. So Microsoft has most of the people who worked on the entire Fallout franchise, including the people who created it in the first place and it would not be that difficult for them to hire back other crew. They can make a Fallout game with like 90% of the main creative people who have been involved in the entire franchise.
