Not in the example you gave. Fallout is a long-suffering example of that where the company who purchased it does not particularly care about the intentions of the original work and want to make it their own thing. The things people are complaining about might seem little or inconsequential, but people have been pointing out that kind of stuff since FO3 came out.

Now a more recent phenomenon is people using "lore" to refer to vaguely told stories where you have to do a bunch of digging to piece things together, and that is a little annoying. It caught on really big with zoomers when FNAF came out, and companies have been trying to capture that lightning in a bottle over and over again with stuff like Hello Neighbor, Bendy and the Ink Machine, Garten of Banban, etc. And what's more, it seems to work annoyingly well. Bad storytelling as a marketing strategy is really obnoxious but younger people seem to eat it up because putting the pieces together is "fun"
