The only thing that makes me really sad is this game will probably have significant commercial success :(

well duhhh. Isn't that what you Fallout fans wanted? For a Fallout game to sell like gangbusters. Fallout 1 and 2 while they didn't flop, didn't exactly sell spectaculary

 

Fallout 3 having commercial success means that the Fallout franchise would never be the same again, that's why Fallout fans are so worried.

Fallout 1 and 2 were secondary projects of Black Isle, had no advertisement, yet it sold far more than everyone expected.

 

The exact same thing is happening to the Fallout series that happened to the Final Fantasy series when FFVII came out in 1997.
