Team Folon's mod Fallout London has set a record on the GOG store within two weeks of being released and is now the "fastest redeemed game of all time." The mod was downloaded more than 500,000 times in its first 24 hours. It has been so successful that Team FOLON has announced that it will launch itself as an indie studio.
Speaking with BBC , the team project lead, Dean Carter, reiterated that this mod is free. He added, however, even though the team loved working on it, "free doesn't pay our bills." "We should hopefully launch our own indie games company, which will allow us to come up with our own ideas, create our own games, and work--without having to speak to anyone above us, such as Bethesda, or anything like that," Carter said.
"It'll be completely our own thing and we can create a game that we want, that we think the community will enjoy. Fallout London has been a great springboard for that." As for Fallout London, the team still plans to release content for the mod.
Not all of it made it into the final cut. This includes a new ending, which the team refers to as "the wild card ending." But it's worth mentioning that this won't come out anytime soon because the team sees itself "working until the end of the year.
