Now a lot of stuff I used mods for is basically just included. If I was doing these on PC I could probably make some utter madness. I'm too afraid to install on PC and start over though, I'd never stop. Yeah man. Just throw this poo poo into your portfolio.

Now they're free to farm out a cheap sequel to Obsidian without having to worry about a bunch of new systems garbage. This would be the best timeline, and I want to live in it.

Interstate 76 (I-76) is a major thoroughfare in Pennsylvania, and is one of the main access highways for the the Philadelphia region. Philly-born "Rapper???" G-Love even wrote a song about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8tq9Va6U68 Also the Philly basketball team are the 76'ers.

Vault 76 is canonically in (West) Virignia. Ref. the Vault map in the Citadel in F3. I'm willing to bet that F76 uses idTech6 instead of Gamebryo/Creation. Every game that's not been directly developed by Bethesda Softworks but has been developed by a studio they own has been on an engine other than Gamebryo/Creation. DOOM and Wolfenstein on idTech, Prey on CryEngine, TESO on ???, etc. If the game has any sort of multiplayer component, odds are good it's either idTech6 or CryEngine since those engines are actually designed for multiplayer.

if this is instanced exploration about twenty years after the war with co-op play and maybe some sort of social hub at the vault... I kinda dig that. build a few makeshift shelters, maybe some state of decay type stuff, collect a mcguffin and a bunch of garbage you can use to make mods and armor then truck on back to '76. with it being so close to after the bombs fell when you finally reach that cool spot you saw off in the distance, all the npcs will be dead. that removes the most disappointing part of beth games.

Bholder posted:Exactly, New Vegas fans want deep character stories about how post-apocalyptic communities are formed and slavery is totally cool and good, while Bethesda wants to make a post-apocalyptic themepark. This is from a few pages back, but seriously: da gently caress are you talking about? New Vegas very much has a "slavery is bad, it's what assholes do" message, all the Fallouts do. The one exception to this is "The Pitt" DLC for Fallout 3 which has the message of "slavery is okay sometimes maybe" and that was made by Bethesda.

They were pretty clearly the bad guys though, yeah.

"Online survival RPG" is a very broad label with many possibilities. It could end up being lovely Fortnite, could turn out to be a neat thing like jfood posted. We won't know until BethSoft tells us more.

lol @ all the "reaction" videos on youtube surrounding the hype train. Here are my similarly grounded-in-inference deductions based on Reddit, Kotaku and YouTube comments: 1. You play as a member of a John Denver tribute band from Vault 76. What instrument you play is your starting class and you level up via rhythm game, making percussion the natural easiest class. 2. Two chairs and two set plates on the dining room table in the video? YOU PLAY AS TWINS 3. An award trophy of a golden toilet means that your settlement has adequate waste management facilities for happiness +. 4. Use of the Pip-Boy 2000 with the dials on the WRONG SIDE means that Bethesda is shamefully willing to destroy canon AGAIN. 5. Online game PLUS settlement focus is the FINAL NAIL in the Fallout coffin and I'm going to immediately type out a death threat to GODD HOWARD on the comment section of a random MrMattyPlays video.

They were pretty clearly the bad guys though, yeah. Eh, i have strong memories of people arguing way back when the game came out that actually Caesar's legion had the right idea and that systems based on slavery and subjugation had a better track record in the more primitive environment of a post-apocalyptic world. I mean those people were super loving wrong, but they (along with the ones who said that The NCR was just as bad as the Legion) definitely weren't in short supply back when New Vegas was the most recent Fallout, so I think there's a kernel of truth in the idea that (some) New Vegas fans liked talking about whether slavery might be good, maybe from a devil's advocate perspective or as a fun thought experiment, if nothing else.

Hot take: Bethesda could put together a decent story if a) they come up with something more original than "[family member] is missing" and b) they commit to telling ONLY that story without open-worlding it to death. Hotter take: The game will be about your missing brother and it basically expects you to be a boy even though it lets you be a girl.
