IGN published a short but interesting video segment on Fallout and Baldur's Gate and their impact on the industry at large, which includes short interviews with the likes of Fallout developers Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky, Baldur's Gate lead designer James Ohlen, and Feargus Urquhart, who was the director of Interplay's RPG division at the time.
There's nothing outright new here for people who have followed interviews and retrospective articles on the late 90s RPG scene, but it's still good to see a mainstream outlet dedicate a video like this to the subject, and it's good that they included anecdotes directly from the developers.
