say what you will about Fallout 3 but it shares a lot of themes with New Vegas, even if they're a bit hamfisted. Enclave Radio perfectly established the tone of the entire game and if you turn it on right as you get out of the vault there's just enough time to realize what effective propaganda it is by the time you hit Megaton. whoops, I became the bug-eyed person from the meme
I think it's just a different type of game entirely. they're trying to expand on the abolitionist themes from the Synthetic Man quest in 3 and you see a lot of parallels between 3 and 4 but the games are marketed to two different kinds of player because of how far apart they were released
