NSFW Where should the next Fallout game take place?

[Valve1138]

I’ll go with either Philadelphia or Seattle.

 

[Jehannum]

It should take place at your house.

Hear me out! There's plenty of potential for strife - you can drink crappy plastic-tasting water, you can build woodchuck-proof storage areas for cars, and you can seek for the fabled CLOUDKEY to get back on the wifi after getting kicked off for switching Kenny G off the Sonos speakers.

 

[Jehannum]

Oh shit, and you'll have to manage the long-term health effects of eating extruded ellipsoid pizza.

So we've had Vegas, DC, Boston, where else?

Id go for someplace cold to shake it up. Chicago? Or maybe the Niagara/Buffalo area

Have it be the dead of winter for the whole game

A perma frozen Niagara Falls would be interesting. Assuming they kept the settlements thing from FO4.

Frozen from the nuclear winter I caused in FO3.

 

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

Someplace with better terrain
edge of the rockies?

[Domon]

In universe, the world is this perpetual end of autumn weather. No seasonal swings.

Personally, I'd say the South somewhere. Its the only region where there hasn't been a setting, closest is Point Lookout

even way up north? Have the icecaps melted?

Its retcon BS that happened with FO3 and doesn't really explore that, as far as I know.

Maybe see how other countries are making out. England might be interesting. That could be an add-on at least.

Wherever it takes place, I hope it takes place soon.

Then all the NPCs could be complaining about how Brexit's impacting services.

For a DLC maybe. I can't see it working for a full game. Fallout is about 50s America, it would feel weird in another country

I did forget that aspect, it does entirely center around a 50s perspective of what the future would look like in 1950s America.

I have only very recently gotten to finally start playing NV (I have played a ton of 4 and a bit of 3), I know it's a well-loved classic but I bought it like riiiiiight before my ex and I split and then I was without a computer for like 8 years and then I done had a kid, so I'm finally doubling back.
