Honestly I refuse to believe we play as a character that can talk. So I think the dog is who we play as.

Hey guys, did you know, character creation is out, you cannot customize your character at all, you are stuck with short hair white guy.

Cannot even change armor, other than power armor at the end.

This is something I saw from fallout 2 as we slowly advance in time civilization will slowly rise back, for what we saw in NV and this trailer we are back at the equivalent of the beginning at the industrial revolution.

They could at least measurably improve somewhat, like they did with their other titles in the meantime.

Yeah, I also expect a company to never improve or hone their craft and, instead, remain the same forever. Change is bad and I fear it.

Maybe Vault 111 is the one that got the cryogenic freezing tubes I don't know

I definitely don't get "prequel", the Boston area probably did not have actual cities and loving airships up and running years before the DC area's hot choices for civilization included "hanging out around an unexploded bomb"

I'm not getting the prequel thing either, but what's to say that the Boston BoS hasn't made contact with the BoS in DC? Or vaults opened earlier? Didn't Fallout 3 mention somethign about a group called "The Institute" and how they had a whole lot more tech / things were allegedly a lot less messed up?

Fallout 3 pretty much implied that the MIT area had its poo poo together, so this wouldn't be too much of a stretch.

Besides, Fallout 3 was really, really dumb and I don't think Bethesda really picked up on the fact that people were quite capable of rebuilding civilization instead of scavenging crap for hundreds of years.

I don't see any Brotherhood of Steel in the trailer, did I miss something? I would imagine they're in somewhere because Bethesda is bad with ideas but I'm assuming all that crazy tech and airships and poo poo is the Institute.

And I guess to be fair the Brotherhood would want to take over the Institute if they knew about it. Maybe they'll actually be dicks in this game like they're supposed to be.

The lightning and effects look great but the textures are low res.

Expecting something to be bad doesn't mean that it being bad isn't worth commenting on.

How do we know they're the DC BoS at all? With the cutting between the post-war house and the pre-war it doesn't look like too much time has passed. A couple of decades, max.

Prequel where we see how The Institute starts and everyone in power armor is actually US Army remnants?

also game looks great people just wanting to hate
