I can't say I knew a lot about DC and Nevada when I played 3 and NV but I've actually been to Boston once so it could be pretty neat.

While reading some news on Mafia III I was linked to yet another Fallout interview (why are they posting these one question at a time? Are they hurting for content that much?) in which they spoke with Pete Hines about what went into making Fallout 4 what it is. They apparently did a lot of reading of reviews and what people were discussing online so we can basically confirm that molerat boobs and realistic dick physics are in. For anyone in here who has more helpful advice on how to make Fallout 4 a better game, well, ol' Pete has some kind words for you:Pete Hines, Satan's Right Hand Man posted:"Let's be honest, [right now] it doesn't matter what anybody wants for a feature in Fallout 4," You can read the rest here. But it's basically someone taking a sentence and turning it into a story with a whole bunch of links to other questions they've been asking since last month.

Location only matters in how they use it and Beth will likely make the game feel more familiar in general design ascetic than any specific local flavor, but here's hoping they try to do both. Maybe when they get off their asses to slice together Quakecon demo into new trailers, we can see if it looks Bostony to anyone that's been there ever. It'll likely just look like a goofy scrapyard that we can now change around to build what we want out it outside of a few key locations, but who knows.

Neither FO1, nor FO2 had a single significant real world landmark and nobody gave a poo poo.

Boston has quite nice architecture for an American city. I was just passing through on my way to New York though so I don't have many Boston memories. Also our taxi driver messily spat out the window mid journey, it was pretty disgusting.

A small bit of news out of QuakeCon IGN says: The mod tools won't be out until sometime next year. So we have a few blessed months of The Real Fallout(TM), before the net explodes in nudity mods.

I like that you attribute not finding Boston an interesting setting to deep seated emotional issues instead of the guy just not being from loving Boston.

I find anyone who could seriously say 'What's so interesting about the birthplace of a revolution and a significantly prominent city in a nation's entire history with internationally recognized landmarks and institutes' with a straight face to be suspicious. At best, they're some sort of robot.

Just chiming in to say I somehow have just discovered Fallout 3 and it so ridiculously my poo poo and type of game that I'm kind of glad I'll be putting 1000 hours in this just in time for 4 to come out.  How's New Vegas compared to 3? I see its a split all over the Internet so I'm honestly not trying to rehash a thing but basically if i love 3 will i love new Vegas

It's ok, it's basically an Fallout 3 expansion pack that was cut and turned into a standalone game. Bethesda really improved upon it though, it's worth checking it out!

It's exactly the same! Which is good, because if you like 3 and aren't an idiot I think you'll love New Vegas. It's pretty widely regarded to be better written, but some people bitch about how it's less atmospheric or something.

New Vegas is much better than 3 (and I enjoyed 3 a lot). New Vegas is the best game of the last generation.

Boston's Museum of Fine Arts, Hatch memorial Shell, Harvard National History Museum, The Wilbur Theater, Black Heritage Trail, Old South Meeting House, The Bunker Hill Monument, Massachusetts State House, Boston Harbor, Paul Rever's House and Faneuil Hall are things that can easily come up in a search engine but don't exist nor count as national landmarks because marktheando doesn't know them off the top of his head.

Lol I thought we were talking about internationally recognised landmarks not "national landmarks" whatever they are. There are tourist traps where I live too but I don't pretend they are known globally.

Holy poo poo if you think anyone outside of New England thinks of any of these things when they hear 'Boston'. I've lived all over the country and no one outside of the east coast gives a single thought to Boston ever outside of the context of sports.
