Theresa Treadwell was a producer and writer who worked at Obsidian Entertainment on Fallout: New Vegas. When asked about her work on the game, she spoke about making a "conscious effort" regarding LGBT content and her perspective as a lesbian in relation to the project. She stated that Fallout: New Vegas is "one of best games out there" in the treatment of homosexuality, adding that it was an intentional decision.
We certainly didn’t intend for New Vegas to change anyone’s outlook on life, but if it did so for the better, then we’re happy for them – for you. Although I’ve been out for a very long time, I made a conscious effort to be out with relation to this project, as I wanted to be visible as a lesbian in the game industry. New Vegas itself is, I think, one of (if not the) best games out there in how we treat homosexuality – and all of that is very intentional. If my work on FNV, if my being out has helped even one gay person, then I have succeeded.
