      From Wikipedia
      Throughout her life, Woolf was troubled by mental illness. She was institutionalised several times and attempted suicide at least twice. According to Dalsimer (2004) her illness was characterised by symptoms that today would be diagnosed as bipolar disorder, for which there was no effective intervention during her lifetime. In 1941, at age 59, Woolf died by drowning herself in the River Ouse at Lewes.

    The answer to your question about when Fallout lost it's edge is after Bethesda bought it. Bethesda fundamentally misunderstands Fallout, so the only game that tries to be a "proper" Fallout game post acquisition was New Vegas, which Bethesda farmed out to Obsidian.
    This is not to say that the Bethesda Fallout games are bad. They just changed what the games were about in a fundamental way.
