it would be cool to play as a robot. what was that Amiga(-era) dungeon master clone with robonts... Captive?

also set the game like 30 years after Fallout 4 and have the new old Silver Shroud show up to fight THE MECHANISM

e: Or just Silver Shroud vs. the Zetans (Thetans? The aliens from the good Fallout 3 DLC, anyway.)

Fallout New New Vegas. Yes Man is expanding his empire to the Commonwealth, all the radio stations play only randcore. Kent Connolly manages to send out an urgent distress call to the now aged Silver Shroud, before his station gets drowned out by "The Atlas Shrug" by Randy Pickett.

Fallout 5 will be played with sticks and stones.

(By the by, once I finish for good with Fallout 4, I'm totally gonna buy and play Fallout 76 because gently caress the police.)

by the by, is it just me or are Deathclaws in Fallout 4 a joke compared to New Vegas? I'm just pistoling them to death left and right with minimal drug abuse. In New Vegas they were loving scary until you hit like level 40 or whatever.

not just you but i think part of that was the mechanics of damage threshold in nv, compared to damage resistance in fo4

what I'd really like out of a new fallout is to play as a chinese survivor, in china and for it not to fall back on the same "ruined early '60s americana" tropes it's been milking since the early 90s but I know that won't happen especially not with microsoft in charge [and even if it did it would probably turn out super racist]

fallout is an adventure game about surviving the aftereffects of a nuclear war, we've already seen 5-1/2 takes on one theme maybe it's time for a new one?

ac is a hack & slash action rpg now, not that that's a good thing but that's what it's become. fallout would be like if they'd just kept making them take place in renaissance italy for the last 8 games instead of switching settings

October 2077, seeking to secure the last cows on the planet, president Cyber-Kekkonen blows in the big whistle. A 2 Yellow is glazed over in seconds, China vapourized, both collateral damage. [in Vesa Matti-Loiri voice:] Fenno-Korean Hyper War, Fenno-Korean Hyper War never changes.

i’d settle for asian survivor in san fran or vancouver even

it would be nice to get away from vaults as a narrative framing device, they loving figured something out in new vegas and they can do it again. of course they will want to have them as “dungeons” which, fine

metro exodus is a good recent example of doing fallout like things without just being hidebound to the core formula. you can have improbably mutated animals and irradiated zones and mutants and poo poo without just copy and pasting from lastgame

years of delays and stalls. then they got hacked and an early version was released so they announced that they were scrapping everything and starting completely over
