They nuked it, because Todd wanted old fans who think that New Vegas is better that 3&4 to eat poo poo and cry.

Kavak posted:I think they're going to say it's canon but change a bunch of stuff and there will be a bunch of exhausting lovely arguments on Reddit on whether it's still canon or not and it won't matter because Fallout 5 isn't getting made until like 2035 and we'll all be dead by then. Microsoft please be evil money-grubbers and make Obsidian and Inxile work on Fallout games, I'd like to play one more of them before I die.

If you search for 'fallout' on Twitter, the critics are starting to talk about it and they seem to like it. https://twitter.com/griffschiller/status/1777772271014469872 https://twitter.com/EricVespe/status/1777534479684309371 https://twitter.com/shayhbaz/status/1777750487611146384 https://twitter.com/helloimjlaw/status/1777801247610794495 https://twitter.com/chriskillian/status/1777732501391253639 etc

if only there was some other coast that was still in the post-apocalypse stage and prominently featured BOS

Screenshots re: the lore spoilerblocks Chronologically, Fallout 3 is set in 2277 and New Vegas in 2281. And they show an obviously ruined Vegas at the very end of E8.

VanillaGorilla posted:This pretty good show is really bringing some of the biggest nut jobs on the internet out of the woodwork, hoo boy. They made a big deal during promotion about how this show is definitely canon from now on and how Bethesda has checked and approved all the lore. So if they did retcon New Vegas for dumb reasons, it doesn't delete your personal copy of New Vegas, sure, but it might gently caress over any future games set in the West Coast.

Tankbuster posted:What makes you think they are gonna set more games on the west coast? Obsidian is off making their own IP. Avowed looks neat and Bethesda has repeatedly said they aren't interested in other studios handling their IPs or setting fallout stuff on the west coast. Microsoft owns Bethesda now. (And Obsidian and Inxile.) There are no official statements to point at, for obvious reasons, but it kinda seems like MS has slowly been getting more and more hands-on with Bethesda after Redfall bombed and Starfield failed to meet expectations. Like, after SF came out they actually put an exec from MS above Todd in the BGS hierarchy. And, sure, they might just let Bethesda let the Fallout IP lay fallow for a decade as they're working on Elder Scrolls just as there is a hit tv show bringing the IP to the public's eye, but I dunno, if I was MS I'd personally start looking into letting other studios have a go. Might not be Obsidian, even if they are an obvious choice, but I'd take anyone tbh, as long as someone's actually working on a new game. quote:setting fallout stuff on the west coast. I mean.... *points at the TV show*

Nucleic Acids posted:There seem to be quite a few people on social media who’ve forgotten that outside of House’s personal fiefdom on the Strip, Vegas was a broken down poo poo hole. Although here, it seems like the wall is around the entire city, not just the Strip. Sure, but The Strip is supposed to glow and poo poo, even from a distance, it's kind of a defining feature.

Owlbear Camus posted:Fun fact: I imagine after multiple AAA games making gazillions, he's had time to make peace with it by now, otherwise we'd be hearing about his multiple ulcers. Anyway, even classic SPECIAL isn't really GURPS-y and 4&76 aren't GURPS-y at all. Megazver fucked around with this message at 10:48 on Apr 16, 2024 |

Arc Hammer posted:Yep he's the Howard Hughes-looking dude from RobCo. NCR couldn't keep winning for "setting still needs some conflict" reasons, Legion was set to self-implode with Caesar's death, the Courier is a blank slate that would be hard to introduce as a character, so I vote for House winning, but Hoover Dam doesn't provide any energy anymore for some reason, so the Strip isn't glowing and the robot army is mostly offline.

Aurubin posted:I wonder if Wasteland 3 got a bump in sales at all. Play Wasteland 3, it's fun and goofy, if a little underbaked. Also the soundtrack is great. Best cover of "Everybody Have Fun Tonight", "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "Are You Washed in the Blood" all in the same place. Seems like it did. https://steamcharts.com/app/719040#1m

dr_rat posted:Edit: although they may skip West Virginia, as Fallout 76 is ongoing, and while as they said writing a sequel for a game with multiple endings is hard, writing a sequel for a game that's still ongoing would seem to be just an utter minefield you just straight up want to avoid. Although they might try anyway as you know, that would be pretty amazing free publicity for 76 so hey might be worth the risk for them. That'll be pretty funny, because Fallout 76 takes place about two hundred years before the show, but when the TV show arrives there I bet it'll still be Raiders vs Responders vs BOS.

Chamale posted:They're not the cryptid mole people, just human miners who were mutated by radiation while hiding out underground. They're kinda both, everything in Fallout 76 is normal creatures that just happened to mutate into something that's exactly like the local cryptid legends.
