This is an interesting scenario and very likely. I dunno, groups change, end, begin, splinter, etc. A good example is how the decaying Timurid Empire went on to conquer India and turned into the Mughals. Enclave is kind of easy spin-off fodder, because these guys had so much technology and...

I just brought Expeditions, so awesome! By the time I clear some disk space and my playing list, the game should get its last update done by then. Then I will play The Perfect Underrail experience!

Ghouls are pretty much walking corpses/burning victims. I would say about the only unambiguous advantages to being a ghoul are the radiation thing and being borderline immortal. Someone here once said that Ghouls are like Fallout's elves but without the whole "Elves are beautiful and perfect...

The two Van Buren world maps I got point to Twin Mothers being in Southern Colorado, and AFAIK those are the canon maps. Pretty sure the Design Doc will point to it, too.

Possibly, but butterfly effect and all that. The ultimate nightmare scenario is Activision or EA scooping out Fallout. Way worse than Bethesda. Another possibility is Interplay keeping the license, but having no capital to develop any games, so they pretty much allow another studio to make...

Honestly, for all the Van Buren hype, I think it would have suffered from a problem which struck Arcanum, Fallout Tactics and X-COM Apocalypse: Trying to mesh Real-Time and Turn-Based Combat in one game to please everyone, both the hardcore crowd and the casuals. It was an attempt to innovate...

I don't think the NCR is there in the civilizational cycle yet, but I think its something they will undoubtedly face one day. Ironically, I think a civil war is more likely if they win in New Vegas. Like how Roman Expansion set the threatre for the civil wars which shook the Republic in its...

I don't think the Nuclear War was inevitable, unless the nuclear launch was a deliberate decision, but I don't think that fits the Fallout universe, to have some bad guy who "pressed the button" maliciously while doing an evil crackle. The Enclave is the closest thing we got, but we actually...

Personally, I always saw Fallout protagonists as pretty normal types, but with exceptional willpower. They are just dudes, but dudes on a mission. Until things like combat implants enter the figure, they are just merely human - sometimes a pretty innately gifted human. Pretty normal dudes who...

I'm not commenting on quality, I'm commenting on the Bethesda game making process*. They can't be making a Fallout game right now, except in the situations I described. *its actually a pretty cool and logical process, because it always keeps everyone working on something. Some companies have...

Wait, what?! You can do that?! Loooool that's like the worst ending ever. And a strange way to keep everyone off your backs - victory by insignificance. "Let's invade New Vegas again!" "Why? They have nothing there anymore. Nobody cares. Fuck it, let's fuck around Mexico or something. New...

Can you blame him? Pretty sure Miria is the village bicycle (although she doesn't seem to be a bad gal, just useless), and Davin is implied to not even be Grisham's kid.

Some of mine: 1. There are a lot more human mutants around, we simply haven't seen them yet. We don't know about most of NA yet. 2. Vree was right about the bio-genetic weapons, but wrong about more mutations caused by those. She has simply not seen those mutations yet, because most mutations...

Here's my ten cents, more from a Classic Fallout perspective: ST: This stat has issues. 1. Strength is too easy to up. In FO1 you could gain +4 ST, +3 from PA and +1 from implant. FO2 allowed you to up ST in six points (+3/4 PA/APA, +1 Implant, +1 Gain Stat perk). So the perfect ST was 6/5/4...

I have to agree with both of you guys. Choosing NCR = Literally handling the NCR to the likes of Kimball, Lee Oliver and Cassandra Moore. The jingoes, the oligarchs, brahmin barons, etc. You're literally giving Lee Oliver the presidency. And probably getting a Cassandra Moore presidency right...

Unless Bethesda expanded their development teams significantly, there's no way they are developing a new Fallout game. AFAIK, Bethesda does development like this: They split the concept and development into two teams. When the development guys are working on a game, the concept and design guys...

I dunno, I think the world could have been saved and the Great War averted, its not as tragic otherwise. We don't know who or why the nukes were launched (through FNV does seem to point that it was likely the Chinese), but embarking upon nuclear war is not an easy choice. I don't think it was...

Guess Davin lost in this one, loool. Beautiful art, pretty funny too. Gotta love how pissed Grimsham is, lulz. And our girls are quite good catches. Beautiful Chosen One here. Its hilarious how progressive Modoc is. I mean, same-sex shotgun marriages! "Everyone deserves the right to be...

Wow, this is excellent art! I love how much attention you paid to the Art Deco architeture. The details on things are excellent, such as the lovingly-bade PPK12 Gauss Pistol magnetized to the armor*, the illumination of the helmet's eyepiece, the dirt and rust everywhere... now this is...

Worth noting we already have some NPCs who react when you use drugs on them - remember the junkies in Fallout 2? You can dose them with something, even their floats change.
