Super-Mormons.
Caesar had the White Legs wipe out the Mormons with the only survivors being Joshua and Daniel.
Yeah and Joshua and Daniel are passing on their Mormon teachings to various tribes. Those tribes will become Super Mormons in a few generations and some FEV exposure.
Acksshullly, there are many Mormons left alive after the white legs destroyed their home. Joshua and Daniel are only together because Daniel's pets, the natives, lives in the same area Joshua got cooked.
Low hanging fruit but that would actually be hilarious. They all emerge from a network of private vaults in Utah to colonize all of the US. Maybe even some kinda robotic mutant Joseph Smith. Or scientologists might be even funnier.

hire me emil
hear me out now. you grow up as a member of the brotherhood of steel. the location is the moon, your brotherhood group walked there from California to find the spaceship humans used to go there just in case it falls into zetan hands. there is a war between two rival groups of brotherhood of steel. you side with one of the brotherhood of steel. brotherhood of steel armor on the game box
brotherhood of steel
Meg, will you excuse us for a moment.
...
..
Meg, your services will not be needed.
Not sure if this was written by an AI or just Bethesda
an industry insider sent me this
you were spot on
what if you're looking for your dad the whole game and you find out your dad actually used to be enclave and you have to convince him to join the good (brotherhood of steel) side?
Here's a novel idea. What if your son or father is looking for you instead
What if both your son and father are looking for you, and you're looking for them at the same time, but you just keep missing each other.
what if your dad's a pedo and he's looking for you and you have to not get found or else buttsex?
What if you're this cute twink and you get captured by a bunch of violent raiders and they take turns on your boipussy? They then place you in one of their harems with other twinks
Sad this is, Bethesda would consider this idea to be genius.
I liked it, but it needs more brotherhood. There should be a third faction never mentioned called the "renegades" who have green power armor and only use explosives.
>the location is the moon, your brotherhood walked there

EMIL WHAT THE FRICK ARE YOU DOING LEAKING THE SCRIPT! MY OFFICE NOW!
Sir, this is the year 2050. We can't have a game with the main factions being "brotherhoods" and definitely not as a title for our game. It needs to be a Sisterhood or Blackhood of steel.
The House has canonically won the events of New Vegas and desires to invade the entirety of America.
Mutant fish that are now able to walk on land, encroaching on the coasts and areas near water, which is a problem because the fish will absorb and pollute the water for those that use it.
Native Americans out for vengeance.
there is a sentient nuke flying over the USA and the brotherhhod has to finish it before it kills someone
Much in the way that the great plains Indians used to roam the nation, many communities who've devolved into a tribal state have managed to walk much in the same way that the Nation's former inhabitants have. A loose collective, the closest thing they have to a leader "The Great Shaman" has called forth the ultimate spirit dance that has sent the tribal nation's members into a blood crazy frenzy bold enough to slaughter settlements and outposts, holdouts of the former civilization.
The game just winds up being Fallout Blood Meridian.
>Australia
>Mad Max Wasteland
>Turns out they were never nuked or anything, they just ended up like that
aliens :^)
I actually want zetans to be explored more. not just as a dlc sideguest, but a real story. maybe translate their language and talk to them find out what they are up to, and maybe nuke them at the end
also these creatures creeped me out more than anything else in the games
More than the fricking mirelurks or the big-ass mutant ants rendered with every bloody detail?
>Fallout XCOM
I can see it.
Chicago obviously or New York.
Mexicans enroaching from the south as an unified state
Let us not kid ourselves here.
speaking of other countries in Fallout, am I really supposed to believe that irrelevant continents like south america, africa and australia were nuked to the same degree as the US? I recall a dialogue option said that other parts of the world are even worse than the wasteland we see in the game. How the frick is that possible?
US foreign aid stopped
EU, and middle east collapsed into shitholes because of the resource wars before the great war with US vs China. I'm not sure if they were nuked by each other, or what, but I would expect resource rich places like Africa would have been fricked as well.
Middle East nuked themselves yea
>How the frick is that possible?
burgercentrisism. They dont know or care whats going on beyond the oceans so they just hand wave it as burgerland is the only one to survive
>series starts
>its in Africa
>its a complete wasteland, everything is destroyed
>raiders pull people from their houses
>cannibals are eating people in the street
>then the bombs drop
Canadians
Set it in the north-eastern US
The threat is the great canadian horde with their mutant "horses" (actually mutated reindeer)
They worship great maple trees that grow three hundred feet tall and they get high off the syrup that flows from the cracks in their sacred bark, and make featherings for their arrows from the leaves
They used to be roving bands but a man, a foreigner to the canadian wasteland, known only as The Rake, has stacked all the leaves together so they may all fly together on the wind and black out the skies of their enemies
frick you I was writing this before you posted that
NOT IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT.
whats his name again?
sole survivor.
Waste of a vault, really.
Warring tribes. While not the cause of the war, the main objective is a pre war nuclear arsenal. Each tribe could have their own plans for the nukes. One tribe might think possessing them is enough of a deterrent to end the war. One tribe might want to use one as an example, Hiroshima style. One tribe might want to wipe the others off the map.
It's up to you to choose a side, or take the nukes for yourself and use them as you see fit
You just make a new faction like Legion. America is a frick huge place.
>Lake Michigan area
Local Baron with functioning factories pumping out bots and pacifying the surrounding regions.
>Louisiana
Voodoo cult leader with some Cabot house style artifact that grants him seemingly mystical powers.
>Miami
80s action TV show style drug kingpin ghoulified when the bombs fell, never stopped making money, now poised to take over the everglade wastes with the nastiest bastards that money can buy.
That's just off the top of my head without touching on anything science or mutant.

Those would be fun if you were somewhere in the middle of these two and they were the big competing factions. Mystical voodoo shit that nobody is sure if it's real or not and cold, calculated business.
Robot and flesh mixed together by a crazy Pre-War ghoul cult made up of RobCo higher-ups operating out of a factory. Just manufacturing fricked up robot-human hybrids like a Securitron with a real face stretched over the TV screen, Mr. Handy's with (you guessed it) literal hands, RoboBrains with blood seeping out, etc. Maybe an offshoot of the FEV Virus with the Ghouls wanting to cleanse the landscape. Then halfway through they start adding robot shit to regular animals, like Ultra Deathclaws. Major focus on body horror
>Baja State

>the NCR is the threat
ez 1 bros
The main character is a Ghoul. The starting town is random. The main antagonists run on the 'nemesis system' from Shadows of Mordor. The game is in Survival Mode by default, the only other option is 'Im A Pussy Mode' inspired by the original Doom, it would insult players for picking it. Personally I would call it Cuck Mode, but that probably wont do in current year.
>cuck mode
kek and all that but yeah that would be stupid. the wife's bf would not approve. because unlike me, he plays games on easy. well, whenever he actually plays them.
>inspired by the original Doom
A little game called Wanted Weapons of Fate had a difficulty setting called Pussy.

Basically what Mass Effect 3 should have been but in a wasteland.
Holy shit an actually good idea based on something interesting in America. Can we get mushroom girls too?
Yes. But her nethers are a Venus fly trap and re-write your sperm to infect whatever regular human you happen to have sex with next. Then the woman gets turned into an asexually producing clone factory for baby fungus-human monsters that are apart of the hivemind.
Kino. It should start out with it initially looking like another weird raider faction in the background, who have this weird fricking cult thing going on where they worship a nonsense god and make offerings to it but the god is real and the offerings is just them literally feeding it. They are initially not seen as much as a threat until their faith starts spreading through every major faction, with the faith actually just being the mindcontrol spores that make people hear the voice of the god in their heads. Of course the player gets infected too and you start seeing and hearing weird shit and you can have conversations with the voice in your head, like he just pops up out of nowhere sometimes like Scorpius in Farscape.
A thriving society of murderers.

ghost of kyiv
city-state centered around Cipher/GECK-run body of water.
wealthy families and merchant class that run balls and gatherings based off of the idealized old world, americana style. huge slum in the outskirts and where criminal organizations run.
the government is a federation of independant tribes in a midst of a power vaccum due to shenanigan plot device entity suddenly collapsing. main character gets involved
i want a focus on new world crops and food, metalworks, astrology.
the most grotesque humanoids are found in irradiated sewers or hidden laboratories in the slums. and tunnelers;
arms dealers that focus on ultra-portable power half-armor/shields;
bikes and carriages for real this time (devs scrapped it).
there are urban barons, behind the curtain ciphers, wasteland nomads, doom preachers and multiple churches vying for unity.
the theme of the adventure is on old world myths, what makes tribes/nations, the struggles of the ordinary(rich or poor) to keep up with a new world that threatens to leave them behind.

Edgelords with guns
Set it in British Isles. US is overdone. Australia is too Mad Max. Russia is too Metro. Ukraine is too Stalker. Asia and Africa are too exotic.
Fallout is about the USA
make your own game series
>Fallout is about the USA
Why?
you’ve either never played the games or have a two digit IQ if you don’t understand that Fallout is about post-nuclear America
Why?
Because we did it once, so now we have to just keep doing it, instead of doing something potentially more interesting
BoS
Enclave
The music
The lore itself especially shit like vault-tec and the vaults themselves
It's all based in America and centered around American culture. To change where it takes place would turn it into Atom RPG or something. It wouldn't even feel like the same series.
The BoS and Enclave aren't what make fallout. Music is international and other countries had their own music from the period to create a unique feel. Why can't non-canon lore be created for other countries in a mod?
A part of The Master survived as a downloaded program to a Pip-boy and is installed into a new Vault with the new motivation to seek Unity as the Omnissiah.
also, Morpheus is turned into a robo-brain
I'm more interested in what time period they're going to invoke. I'm not talking about the typical retro future stuff either. NV was clearly invoking the wild west and 4 was invoking the revolutionary period. I'm guessing 76 was doing a colonial thing, but I never played it. I'm not entirely sure about 3 but I'd guess it was WW2 based on all the entrenchment and sandbag fortifications in the bombed out city, as well as the old aircraft carrier
It seems like because of the show, Bethesda wants to set 5 somewhere west.
I'd be inclined to do something like, post-war Mexico starts to get its shit together and starts expanding north, but that might be a political hot potato. So how about a resurgent Texas then?
Texas seems like the most obvious choice.
>cowboy theme
>robot horses
>oil fields
>references to a myriad cowboy movies
>use some sort of "border" talk as the main plot point
etc...
There's a lot that can be done there plus it still retains the "frontier" setting so a lot of desert environments etc...
There's potential with the Houston space center too
I meant Texas as the evil outside invading force, but if you made Texas as the setting then yeah it'd be cool too. I remember from some thread like years back, someone had the idea of setting it on the Gulf coast of Texas, and the really cool idea of like some scrap city of interconnected offshore oil rigs, as the game's "big city" equivalent of like Rivet city or Diamond city
>HOWDY PARDNER
>YUO DUN SEEM TO BE IN DESE PARTS
>IM SHERIFF BUSTER
ehhh isk about texas, alot of ideas for that just seem like it'd make for a Fallout NV, part 2.
I really think we need a unique location for 5
Alright:
>Setting:
Set in the barren plains of what was once the Midwestern united states, what was once lush crop land has been reduced to barren patches of dust-choked grass, scattered patches of trees and sickly woodlands, and over grown by a mutated form of kudzu called "Snarl-Grass", which saps HP and reduces movement in it, requiring special equipment, armor, or a means of transportation in order to be safely navigated(Acts as a Progression lock).
>Character
You have a choice of either starting as a regular Wastelander or as a member of an Amer-Indian reservation, you learn some tutorial stuff while growing up, making memories, that sort of thing, differing depending on your character origin, but basically the same stuff either way.
One day, your town/village is attacked, wiping almost everyone except your character out, when you awaken again, you discover yourself in a vault, learning you were rescued by a convoy sent by the vault to trade with your town/village.
Eventually, you meet with the Overseer/Chief of Security of the vault, who tells you that in return for staying in the vault, you will receive a proper education, food and training(It's implied their having a population problem and want some "fresh" blood to stop a looming crisis).
Next section is learning various skills from a collection of characters living in the vault, receiving proper fire-arms training, going to classes and learning stuff while making friends, and learning about old-world technology and receiving a functioning pip-boy.
Eventually though, you learn from overheard communications/refugees like yourself brought into the vault that there have been further attacks like what happened to your town/village, which ignites a desire for revenge in you, so you approach the overseer/chief of security with plans to leave the vault and get revenge, they resist at first, but eventually agree, saying they had thought this would occur eventually, and give you supplies
Cont(1/?)
(Cont)
And a map of the area, with before you leave, they tell you that you'll always have a home here in the vault. You become known as "The Vengence Seeker/The Seeker", and set out into the remnants of the Midwestern wastelands to do just that.
(It's implied that between regular trading with the outside world, and the introduction of other survivors/refugees to the vault population, the crisis had been averted some years before).
>Enemies/Big bad
As you explore the wastes, you find several villages/town in ruins, all have been marked with a strange symbol consisting of a half-sun/half-skull put together side by side, this is the mark of the "Children of the Sun", a large faction with a quasi-religous doctrine that while started small, suddenly swelled in numbers, growing bolder in their attacks, going after not just the established towns and villages and caravans that regularly crossed the wastes, but the other tribal/raider groups that made the area their home, royally pissing them off in the process.
Think of them as a group with the numbers of the ceasers legion, and the zealotry of the children of atom.
Cont?
tldr
Fallout 5 was the TV show.
See you in 10 years.
Uh... How about Super Duper Mutants?

>entirely new threat
>entirely new ANYTHING
Sorry, but Bethesda would never allow it
explain Far Harbor then vegas troony
>Explain Point Lookout but Again
It's Point Lookout, but again
cope and seethe
Different anon, what's this?
Point Lookout: Fallout 3 along an eerie, dark coast with swamps and spooky shit
Far Harbor: Fallout 4 along an eerie, dark coast with swamps and spooky shit. Also with a plagiarized quest (Autumn Leaves).
What's the connection to Far Harbor?
It's not about a connection. It's a completely rehashed idea, that's what we were arguing about
What's the rehashed idea? Is that what Autumn leaves is about? I've played Fallout 3 but it was along time ago and I never engaged with anything past the base game (no dlc, no mods).
I have played Fallout 4 including Far Harbor.
I'm just asking because I don't actually know what this Fallout 3 stuff is.
Autumn leaves is a quest dlc for Fallout New Vegas, it came out some time BEFORE far harbor was released and there is a SHOCKING amount of similarities between it and the quest "Brain Dead" in Far Harbor. Far too many to be a coincidence. There are differences but it really feels like the devs played it, loved it and then made their own "30% different so it's okay" version.
So again, a rehashed idea they didn't come up with.
As for the other thing; there was dlc called Point Lookout that dealt with spooky shit along a dark coastline. There were a lot of swamps and mirelurks and crazy natives and then there's a small sci-fi tilt.
If any of that sounds like far harbor, that's because Bethesda rehashed Point lookout to make far harbor. No in fairness Point lookout isn't a blatant rehash of anything from earlier fallouts, but it is basically shallow trope after shallow trope smushed together. Not to mention a decent number of things from the main game just now in the swamp so it's different.
My original joke, which is all it was, is at the expense of Bethesda, particularly modern Bethesda, being creatively bankrupt and incapable of original ideas. The other Anon took umbrage with that complete accurate observation and out Far Harbor up as a counterpoint when it itself is basically a Point Lookout 2.0.
I see
>dude monster but she's a cute girl
I fricking hate you coomer degenerates so much
We don't even think about you
you're too busy cooming to think about anything else, of course you aren't thinking about that homie!!! become a slave to the flesh, prostitute!!!!
>tfw far harbor is the best and only part of fo4 worth playing aside from nick’s questline
>tfw artistically its point lookout without any of the chink spy shit and charming goofiness but instead way cooler and more serious
sigh
fricking weird I had no idea point lookout exist and I played all the fallouts. woah.
What's there to explain? It's like anything "new" in Fallout 4. They ripped off a mod for NV
Oh, and don't forget the whole questline they just straight up stole from a modder
>you can switch the gameplay between the top down perspective from fallout 1/2 and the third-person perspective from fallout 3 onwards
>hire the fans to write the story

Remnant of US elite like the Enclave, but 1000 times more evil, they hide in underground cities, have human meat shops, and abduct children off the street
I have no interest in Fallout 5. I want New Vegas 2.
season 2 of the fallout tv show is that no game for you
Evil Vault Dwellers
>Hey this place is boring, we should git gud and rule the world above
>okay
And they wear distinct evil looking Vaultsuits.
I like this idea. Vault 76 may already be heading in that direction.
This is the plot of the nausicaa manga
>a bunch of warring post apocalyptic homies
>kill the frick out of each other
>survivors team up and awaken an ancient biological god weapon child and kill the vault dwellers to stop them from changing the environment to suit their needs, effectively exterminating the original untainted human race
>And they wear distinct evil looking Vaultsuits.
How would those look like?
Darker shades of blue?
Sky pirates. They go through an area, loot everything they can, then gas the land to make it unliveable.
Have them come from up from Mexico or down from Canada to make players ask the question... "What is scary enough to make THEM run away?"
And you've got your plot hook for DLC/Fallout 6.
I'll accept payment in Power Armor pics

>You sars are being selfish
>you redeem all the cards!
You are trapped in the New York tri-state area, which has been turned into a super mutant colony. Its actually functional and based off pre-war New York culture, except everyone is an insane or stupid super mutant in addition to being a regional stereotype. You were brought in as a human slave and try to work out a way to escape. There's factions, but they are all moronic mutants and thus satire of believable philosophies .
>Vault designed to continue space travel and research
>Residents are convinced the outside world is so ruined that they cannot re-establish civilization and are the ground research team for a huge base in orbit of the planet
>People are taught about science and engineering and shit, anyone who isn't good at it is streamlined into other vault life
>Those who show promise are trained by older residents in the theory of rocket-design and shit
>The Vault's overall goal is to launch a satellite with data into orbit so they can be taken off the planet to live on the space station
>Parts for the satellite never made it to the vault due to the nukes
>The dwellers are unaware of this and assume they must improvise
>Parts of the vault are massively deconstructed, the "rocket" has a cult like following at this point

>There's an option to join/aid them steal an essential part for their ship (air/water purifier I dunno whatever) from the Vault you emerged from
>Quest involves either forcing everyone in the vault to leave or locking them in to die
>Allowing them to leave means the spacemen are far more in number but their rocket fails and they are scattered around the wasteland, encountered in small groups at a time
>Locking them in means that the residents try a last ditch attempt to launch themselves, destroying a friendly (probably the tutorial) village/town when the ship crashes, killing all but one resident (like nuking megaton)
>Take G.O.A.T exam
>Assigned as a cook
>Burn the wrong kids sweetroll
>Launched intro space

Some people that are from a country that wasn't nuked, so they're trying to take over the land and pave it over to make it theirs.

>Bethesda did a murder mystery quest just like this mod from NV! they so totally plagiarized because no one ever thought up a murder mystery before this one modder!
vegas trannies are absolute loons
didn't the NV mod also feature robots? Isn't that why they called it plagiarism?
wouldnt be the first thing Bethesda stole from modders
Bethesda eventually stopped trying and just started charging for mods
An entirely different faction with power armor.
Sex.
Frick hardmode, intelligent deathclaws. The peaceful solution is becoming allies to defend settlements, allowing for a romance with a male and female, or both at once, all three options are deeply interwoven into both the main story quests and sidequests. The ending slides show humans interbreeding with deathclaws and making the area stronger and safer.
This both satisfies my personal fetishes (fricking monsters) as well as causing an absolute shitstorm on every social media site as well as on here.

I'm a sick frick I like a quick frick
Civilization is finally starting to rebuild but a new faction wants to tear it down. They think the new ways are bad and the old ways are good. They want to return to wasteland life because it has soul so they raid settlements and destroy everything they deem soulless. They also hate women and minorities. The player can join them if they want.
Fallout texas you have to contend with the encroaching Mexican republic from the south west, Caesar's legion from the north west, the petrochico super computer in the south east has gained sentience and believes only it knows how to lead humanity to prosperity and is now leading an army of robots and tribals is currently at war with the Mexican republic, also off the coast sitting in the gulf of Mexico a British ark ship is approaching to make land fall and it's residents are ready to recolonize the new world, there's also a burgeoning Texan republic and a few other native Texan factions trying to survive their own invasions from the factions listed above depending on their location.
There's also a grand super arsenal that the previous governor of Texas stashed away full of enough prewar weapons, tech, supplies, and riches to fund a army the wasteland has never seen before that everyone is looking for like it's the one piece
After Fallout 4 and Starfield I can't possibly imagine FO5 or even ES6 to be any good. Are they also still using fricking Gamebryo? Bethesda is in a terrible state right now and without brand recognition they'd be nobodies
In the aftermath of Mr. House's victory at the Second Battle of Hoover Dam and the subsequent collapse of the New California Republic (NCR), the Mojave Wasteland stands on the brink of a new era. In this sequel, set several years after House's victory, New Vegas serves as a hub of trade, entertainment, and intrigue, but it is no longer the main focus of the wasteland's politics. Amidst the power struggles and shifting alliances, a third faction emerges, one that defies conventional boundaries and embraces the radical ideology of transhumanism.
This new faction, known as "The Ascendants," is comprised of individuals who believe in transcending the limitations of humanity through the integration of technology and biology. Led by schmismatic BOS veterans, charismatic visionaries, and brilliant scientists, The Ascendants seek to usher in a new age of enlightenment and progress, where cybernetic enhancements and genetic modifications are embraced as the next step in human evolution.
However, The Ascendants' pursuit of transhumanist ideals brings them into conflict with both Mr. House's established order and the enigmatic Remnants.
The Remnants are shrouded in mystery, rumored to be descendants of a splinter group from a pre-war mega-corporation. They manipulate events from the shadows, positioning themselves to become the dominant power in the Mojave Wasteland.
As the player navigates this complex web of factions and ideologies, they must decide where their loyalties lie and determine the fate of the Mojave Wasteland. Will they align themselves with Mr. House's vision of a technologically advanced society, forge alliances with the enigmatic Remnants, or embrace the transhumanist ideals of The Ascendants? In a world where the line between humanity and machine blurs, the choices made by the player will shape the destiny of the wasteland for generations to come.
A strand of FEV enters into the water supply of the south west and it turns the Death claws into a super intelligent race of beings, kinda like the ones in Fallout 2 but these are genocidal religious death claws that are more intelligent than humans. They start breeding like roaches and enslave other mutated animals while they use humans as food. They become such a big threat that all the big factions ally together including sects of super mutants and ghouls just to hold them at bay. But you as the player has to convince the other factions to band together and finish off the deathclaws, or destroy each other and take their power for your own faction, create your own factions, or join the death claw and sabotage the other factions once you realize that the death claws have a better plan for humanity. In my head is that there is two groups of death claws. One is devour all humans, and the other want to befriend humans as they lack the dexterity and the ability to farm as they are death machines. But you can side with both.
I think it could work as bethasda loves the settlement system which would go great with factions and waring with each other. But for some reason they didn't do that with starfield or fallout 4 really. I think they should focus on factions as that was the whole fun of new vegas.

Robots. They came to the conclusion the war and suffering was due to human rule and seek to establish a zookeeper society where humans are well cared for but also tightly controlled. A life in luxury, but most are castrated to keep aggression to a minimum and killed when they turn 40. No freedom of movement, no self-determination. You eat what they give you (which is better than what most people eat), you socialize only among approved individuals. Those robots don't hide their terms, but many still flock to their cities to escape the desolation.
The factions are:
- Resistance cell, made up of people about to turn 40 who seek to rewrite some parts of the robots, effectively turning them into butlers.
- Religious raider-esque faction on the outskirts believing the robots to be an affront to god and humanity
- The Grand Calculator, basically the robot ruler. You can join him for various tasks that need to be done by a human in exchange for exemption of the 40 year rule and breeder status.
- The Mother, another supercomputer seeking to supplant the Grand Calculator
The story premise is a big arsenal of ready to launch nukes (500 or so) currently inaccessible by everyone. It could be used to EMP blast all robots to shit, or to wipe out resistance to robot rule and keep the Brotherhood away (Brotherhood only mentioned, not actually in the game).
There.
What are the odds they don't even make Fallout 5 for another 20 years since making more TV shows and even a movie is faster and more profitable and the fact that they'd frick it up with a moronic story(synths) or shit gameplay(Starfield) again?.
Aliens, they swoop in post apocalypse and enslave the planet now that earth's defenses are weakened. final battle vs the mothership,, you get assistance from various factions that you've helped throughout the story including mutants, the brotherhood, remnants of other obscure ones.
Some factions you cannot have allied with each other. Alt ending potential is you decide to use the alien tech for your own purposes and become the new Supreme emperor of earth
You're Enclave deserter. Either choose to rejoin them or join BoS, and to take them both down through power of diversity and friendship with fellow raiders.
Also make sure to include as many trannies, Black folk, and indians as possible to appeal ESG quota.
>ywn be an enclave survivor being relentlessly hunted by ncr and having to hop from town to town, laying low
Would be a neat game but what would the objective be? Escape? Start a family? Get revenge and die?
I don't know. Probably build shitty settlements with ply sheet shacks in irradiated shitholes, sip nukacola, and soipog when you see BoS.
That's what Bethesda's games are all about.
>Enclave detachment stops receiving orders from the oil rig
>sets up temporary FOB
>over time nothing happens, canvas tents become concrete buildings, sandbags become stone walls
>develop into a successful but insular community, still salute the US flag, still keep the power armour oiled and working in storage, but outwardly appears just a slightly quirky but disciplined settlement
>one day a passing trader drops recognised enclave codewords, passes on a message the government is regrouping at X
>all the original enclave members are old and past their prime, the new generation have never known anything but their little community
>player gets volunteered to contact them, sent off with an enclave uniform stuffed in the very bottom of his pack
A faction of hyper sadistic Japanese murder robots powerful by lovecraftian level technological bullshit that just want to cause as much suffering in the wasteland as much as possible for shits and giggles (because, after how much bethesda and now amazon fricked with the lore, ton and themes of the series, so why the frick not) causing you to face the most OP and hardest enemies you will run across. Also they wiped out the local brotherhood chapter and did frick up shit to the corpses, and the local enclave are just their personnel chew toys, the robots keep around because they like the worst aspects of the faction. They are also constantly fricking up settlements and deliberately driving people insane and forcing everyone to hide in the sewers, so they can keep the wasteland as their playground./
Also the main quest will have jack shit to do with taking them down, and is just another new vegas style faction war, with the robots as a twisted version of the yes man route (that one of the robots trick you into by pretending to be the most moral person in the wasteland with the best path) that that have be do doing more and more twisted and evil things until it result in a local apocalypse.
also their is hydroponics facility they allow to stay up, but no one is allow to use it just to frick with the people in the wasteland.
basically a cartoonishly evil faction to make the your life hell and feel powerless and generally screw with you, because frick you, if Bethesda can add aliens and ghoul kids in fridges then i can add genocidal Japanese robots.
Fallout: New Orleans
You fight rednecks in the bayou, the French Quarter is one of the larger populated cities with factions based on southern culture
Add some deadly mutated gators and mosquitoes and a heavier focus on the survival aspect with disease and purifying water and you've got your ass a new region for Bethesda to ruin
Vault tec ~~*CEOs*~~
Artificially created human made by Zetans for the purpose of retrieving stolen zetan tech from area 51. The threat is the tech itself (whatever it is) and how it will affect the wasteland if left in the wrong hands (not that the zetans care.. they just want their shit back). A return to Nevada taking place a hundred years after NV in which whoever's in charge of the Mojave is dabbling with space tech for space purposes.
An epidemic that's spreading through settlements like wildfire and causing a panic. No zombie virus shit -- just a plague that's deadly enough to get everyone from tribals to paramilitary groups acting crazy and paranoid..
>Far Harbor
No kidding, if they make a game solely based on Far Harbor, will be peak.
it's time to show us Fallout's new york. art deco skyscrapers, huge eagle statues, walkways between buildings, layer upon layer coruscant style. as for the main enemy, i would like to see a faction arise that uses the Sight and other psychic powers for nefarious purposes
A cult of cybernetic psykers
How about an invasion force from a country that managed to recover due to less direct nukes hitting them? Like a new empire from Asia (malaysia, russia, india etc.) is invading the pacific northwest and local factions are trying to organize to fight back. the invasion force would be much better equipped and the mc can decide who to support. add a proper conquest mechanic where you conquering a region actually has some kind of impact.
easy, Ghost People
hard, an AI went paperclip maximizer and is forcefully assimilating everything in its goal to produce more of whatever product it's trying to make
That might be the only thing to beat Chinks.
Remember how they took a dumb side quest from Fallout 3 and built the antagonists around it?
Wait was is that. I
Seeing as they're not only giving away the old Enclave CC shit but they're adding NEW Enlave CC shit for free AND the show features some other Enclave remnants, I'm willing to put some money on the Enclave being in FO5.
OR they are milking all the fan favorites so that they can make a quick buck. Are you even old enough to remember F76 shit?
>implying I played FO76
It's an always online multiplayer game. NOTHING could convince me to play it.
especially with how easy it is to mod the shit I like from it into FO4, like the T-65
I didn't even play that shit, you don't need to play a pile of garbage to see what it is. That shit stank like a landfill the second it crawled out of Todd's festering womb. I still remember the threads we got from it. ALMOST HEAVEN!
It's possible that the Enclave dude in the show escaped from the commonwealth and somehow made it across America to the other side.
somehow the enclave has returned
The US was divided into 13 commonwealths so this could be any commonwealth.
not really I have bad memory
A supervault in a random part of the world. Like south asia or something. Tactically placed in an area furthest from any major 1st world cities, to avoid nuclear fallout.
Full of the descendants of rich mfs.
Vault tec didnt care about it much since it wasnt in America, so they focused on making it huge to fit all the rich and famous, but thats it. So its now in disrepair and unsustainable.
The supervault population emerge to the surface and essentially become a giant raider group. White people stealing from the poor minority surface dwellers above to sustain their vault.
You were taken as a slave into the supervault. You do the slave tutorial, then sneak out in the luggage of a raiding party with the goal of freeing your sister or lover or some shit whos still a slave in there.
Pay me Todd
Remnants of Bethesda Republic. They have nukes and manage to nuke the entire East Coast and sink it into the ocean. But because there are 2 leaders who are homogays by the names of Todd and Pete they also nuke themselves by mistake thinking that it just works....it doesn't and the world is ow celebrating.
>China colonizes philippines
>PH is largely unaffected.

>They use this port to reach out to Hawaii and the west coast.
>Fallout 5 is now about dealing with Chinese foreign relations.

>NCR is fricking up with water despite having water from Hoover dam.
>There's not enough food to go around
>Rampant corruption among even the most ordinary law enforcement
>Quests involve morally grey issues like corrupt cops still doing decent things like giving water to ordinary citizens which cut into sharecropper water rations and means less food overall.
>Industrial sectors also use water to produce uranium in the mining process.
>This causes pollution inevitably and there's additional quests involving the NCR that deal with dumping around towns.
>It's up to you whether you levy the NCR to use underhanded, but practical solutions to gain capital and strongarm the firms for better deals or take them to court and bankrupt the firms.
>This is meant to echo the entire Cass storyline in NV, but on a larger scale.
Bunch of quests like this basically
>Some involve building lines to semi-rural communities that aren't financially viable to run lines in.
>These same communities are targeted by Chinese nationals looking to trade and establish influence in.
>If you build the lines out, they don't align with the Chinese.
At the end of the game your slides reflect on whether you were able to reconcile your dilemmas well enough to keep china out. Some ofc will deal with CH-PH canonically establishing decent trade relations with USA. Those will be fine. Primarily, this fallout deals with corruption and unionizing.
>For example, ghouls and supermutants which are otherwise immune to radiations are the primary workers in uranium mines.
>They're still treated poorly by the regular humans.
>They go on strike.
>This causes energy shortages in majors locations in CA--primarily southern CA.
>You can go through a long and drawn out quest that lets you either union bust or side with the workers.
>The consequence of siding with the workers is everybody is pissed because the ghouls and supermutants are richer.
>You can alternatively establish route with China and the ghouls and supmuts go back to work.
>NCR is trying to set up rail line connecting Southern CA to Northern CA (lmao).
>You have a job to protect one portion of it.
>also mexico exists.
>Not much comes out of there.
>You get to hear sombrero music and see wild west banditos
>fun times. I liked raul.
>Fallout 5 should inevitably be about late 1800s and early 1900s politics.
>Basically using gangs to control political institutions.
>Established gangs represent stability.
>Opposing gangs represent equality in an unjust society that's afraid of rocking the boat in the wake of foreign powers encroaching.
chinese invasion
Hawaii, and in the vein of that Nukaloha quest on /qst/ that shit was epin
You fight this one guy who leads these other guys and it's heavily implied that he's the Courier from NV.
only good idea itt
Set in texas, prety much carrying over the western cowboy theme of new vegas, new factions mostly, but Ceasars Legion makes return (but without Caesar, he is replaced with someone else and is drastically different now) maybe 1 or 2 vault from vault tec, but since its Texas, there would be alot of self made Doomsday prepper shelters, vith variying results of sucess. Your character could be descendant of people from one of those prepper vaults, now living kinda like great khans, and some new faction (or legion) comes in and wipes your simple arroyo like settlement, but you manage to escape the onslaught, and now find yourself in a small western like settlement town...

The Fallout London mod looks about as good as any official take on the idea would be,
Needs to made by actual Britbongs to be witty
what fricking animals do you even have? Are we going to be fighting shrews and sheep?
Deadly seaguls.
Radbadgers the size of minivans
Urban foxes that have urbanised too much and developed opposable thumbs and smoking habits
The Welsh
The ravens from the tower of London, massive arial predators abducting people from the streets
Are any of the animals in fallout specific to north America? It's not like you fight a bunch of mutant bald eagles
Bears, geckos, scorpions, American horseshoe crab.
Anything Fallout related is a waste of brainpower as long as Bethesda has the IP. They have never made a good game.
>one of the factions gets big and powerful enough, that they start looking to colonise other continents, and we get some Heart of Darkness/Apocalypse Now kino
Could it work?
I'm really just thinking about how we could get away from this loop of America being a bombed out wasteland, where it looks like the nukes were dropped a year ago, while still maintaining some kind of wild west frontiersman vibe.

Fallout Tokyo / Hiroshima. Game writes itself. Godzilla, mechs, Yankees, miliotas, idolgay faction, anime bullshit. Biggest issue is the lack of guns.
Oh that’s easy, say that Japan got turn into a war zone between American and China or the weapons are coming out of the American war time bases that would be all over Japan, hell you could even use that. To explain why power armor is everywhere.

>any random ass NPC can be an ally, enemy, neutral, or even the final boss on a whim
I would probably make it a split between the NCR, Caesars Legion, and the Eighties in northern Utah. Legion and NCR are both having logistical issues due to their distance. NCR being underfunded and undermanned, Legion due to lack of machinery. Make the Eighties a large threat but extremely brutal, organized, and effective. Give them a large Native American influence to their culture and raiding tactics. Do kind of a cowboys and Indians thing with them and the NCR with Legion as a counterbalance to both.
- SLC is their main point of contention due to some sort of macguffin or technological device that the ncr wants to harness, the legion wants to destroy, and the eighties want to establish their power in the area or sell to the highest bidder.
New Canaan refugees/displaced members, while small in numbers, play a large role in the story
The player character would be a vault dweller from a relatively intact vault that was meant to house different sects of Christians and see how the react to one being given more power over the others. IE the overseer is only allowed to be a Mormon and has control over Catholics, Protestants, etc. or maybe a small atheist population designated as the ruling class. The characters drive being the vaults increased worry of invasion due to seismic activity from the war going on above. Solving the issue one way or another.
Cutting out raiders is impossible btw, if you mean like “raiders” the generic enemy type sure. But by that definition you can’t include the Khans, Eighties, Vipers. Etc
Fallout Alaska could be fun.
Extreme weather conditions that you have to consider while in hardcore. Not that many settlements, but what settlements there are tend to revolve around trading furs and other parts of mutated animals, maybe a larger emphasis on being able to craft your own stimpaks, etc.
Not sure what the factions would be but there's oil reserves so the populace might be less inclined to rely on old world tech and fusion. Maybe there's a split in attitudes about it and other prewar tech, considering there's also less likely to be vaults up there too and less influence regarding Vault-Tec.
Icy mountains, lots of coast, thick greenery. Coastal towns that can trade with each other and further inland would be more isolated places that could be home to some stranger people. But it's already kind of regarded as a frontier nowadays so it'd be moreso after 200 years after the war.
How does this series end or will it go on forever like Super Mario?
Real fans end the trilogy with New Vegas, while Bethesda and morons will drag it into oblivion until it's completely unrecognizable.
Real fans would desperately wait until something worth playing is released. deluding themselves that Bethesda might "learn from all the mistakes they've made.".
Fallout is essentially a setting for roleplay campaigns.
How does D&D end? It doesn't. Why would you assume it should?
In a world where le evil british guy and his henchmen steal the mayor of shitholecity's daughter and you are paid to get her back, born out of vault 69 how will the gender less xe/xim adapt to the new harsh world and get back the mayor's daughter, find out next episode of fallout's trash Z
Start over in a different country. Maybe Europe. Explore how they survived, new monsters, new factions.
Right now, I'm thinking [insert faction] sends some mercenaries on a plane with limited supplies, and limited info, to go and chart South America, search for resources and make contact with whatever is down there, and you have a big ole Apocalypse Now adventure.

European Fallouts already exists, which is Underrail. To back that up, you even find ancient Venus figurines in the Foundry.
Fallout: Motor City
Game takes place in the Metro Detroit area; the heart of the American auto industry. Ideally, the ambassador bridge and some of the Windsor, Canada can be explored as well. Some of the documents and information surrounding car construction have been recovered by survivors, allowing the player to customize vehicles like the Mad Max game (of course in Fallout's retro futuristic style) Maybe you could have a Mr House ripoff through someone like Henry Ford
Seagulls. Swarm of the frickers stole my burger yesterday and I'm still pissed.

A coalition of a few Vaults.

>they're connected to some other vaults like ones in the show
>the rebels contact other vaults and liberate them too
>eventually they decide to investigate the surface
>they're attacked by raiders and encounter all sorts of degeneracy
>decide the wasteland is irredemable and needs to be purged
>those stipulations
Should I try to make it without the pipboy, vaults and and radiation too? Jesus. I get originality but don't get rid of the iconography in the process.
At this point, maybe.
If you're like 300 years on from the war, how many sealed Vaults, and working pipboys should really still be hanging around?
It all gets a bit silly past a certain point.
sure but at the point it's not fallout anymore is it? If you set a fallout game in the future where humanity has bounced back to normal it isn't fallout anymore, is it?
I get the want for originality and unique ideas, but foregoing the most iconic aspects of the story like the brotherhood and the enclave just makes it soulless.
I think as long as there's Mad Max influence, wild west influence, and retro-futurism, it's Fallout.
Fallout London looks Fallout enough that it could be a real Fallout game, and that's without it having to have Vault Boy plastered everywhere.
I would be happy to see them take the chance, because taking the chance means you might expand the universe to be something even more interesting. And the alternative means we kind of just do the same thing until everyone gets bored of it.
>nuke brotherhood

that's it. that's the whole game.

They should set it in China where China constrains all their people to a single giant vault but you're forced to leave for (plot) reasons. All the mutants can be weird chinese animals that have mutated into yokai type shit. Then you can have a new setting and avoid all the progress by setting it earlier. You could also fill it with a bunch of communist bullshit that a bunch of libs would love
Plus, New Vegas near enough was there. The Vaults, the Brotherhood, and the Enclave are only really included in a token sense. You can make it through the game, and avoid seeing any of that stuff.
>50-75 years after bombs fell
>Set in Texas
>Major Factions are A government ai mass producing robots to turn the surface into a no man's land in a misguided attempt to restore order
>Military remnants that have formed a loose collection of city states with zero tolerance for any kind of mutant going as far as putting them to work as slaves but ultimately follow the traditions of old america
>A Raider warlord who has snowballed into a ruthless nomadic nation incorporating aspects of raider tribe cultures and quirks to make a jack of all trades fighting force, the incentive to be apart of their collective is being left alone and fiercely protected but everything outside of it is free game, don't mind mutants as long as they are useful.
>Pre war cartel families bleeding in over the border to expand their influence and doing typical cartel level stuff, mostly ghouls
>The plot revolves around a control vault holdout that has enough supplies and facilities for either of these factions to build a long lasting nation within Texas unopposed any any hardships
>Your character is traveling with a caravan that is ambushed and left for dead due to it supposedly having information on the location of said control vault ( its under the alamo)
It sounds like you want to recreate Fallout Tactics but with Mexican ghoul cartels. Hell, I'd play it. I liked Fallout Tactics a lot.

>Vault-Tec spent billions into experimenting with the ocean with the hope of remedying overpopulation and reducing demand for resources, developing ocean technologies, mines, shelters. The war put these efforts to a halt and for many years, much of a new humanity did not know what lay below. Until, that is, scavengers cracked open a control vault, the Vault-63, and found within information related to their pre-war experiments. When this information went public, many wastelanders dived into the murky coastal waters, hoping to find 63's vaunted "mini-shelters", seeking fortunes. Many of them died, only to return as ghastly phantoms, still in makeshift diving equipment. They'll attack the Vault Dweller on sight with harpoons, oxygen tanks, even their own masks. Believing to be still in the waters below, they mistake his bright blue clothes for the treasures, gasping out songs undecipherable to anyone but themselves.
>Vault 63
>Its the number of a Vault already in established lore
>Its in the worst Fallout game
Yep I messed up writing this. Still a cool idea.
You have to locate all the radioactive stuff, clean them, clean the air and terraform.
While doing so a lot of groups, mutated and weird underground stuff gets in your way.
Going by the TV show next Fallout is going to be in San Francisco. It will have shi-made synths and it will also feature the multi generation starship. A DLC will take place in China.

copy metro exodus and introduce a train mechanic and a map which is compromised of huge interconnected regions instead of a single overworld. I don't know that much about American geography to suggest where it should be set but I think have a trainline connecting the regions would be cool.
You'd start looking for your kidnapped wife or some shit and then get control of locomotive and from there you'd be able to support factions via logistics. You can smuggle people , enslave them , carry goods , ban settlements from your trade routes and in turn they start raiding your train.
Also your wife should be extremely cute

>Confirmed the number of vaults and their locations
This feels like a very moronic and bad decision to me
Making a Fallout show was very moronic and a bad decision. Imagine what ideas they think are so bad that they throw out.
I doubt they'll stick to this map, they'll put vaults wherever they make another game.

The main quest is destroying one side, both sides, or helping the Lanturn of Liberty group lead a mass exodus gtfo of Canada
>Takes place immediately after Fallout 4
>You play in Montreal Canada
>Rumor has it Nate is on his way to finish the job
How would Nate react to the Holy French Empire.
Would he hate the french as much as the leaf.
I'd just steal some of the OC factions from the OWB mod for HOI 4
Bring back the New Plague concept from Van Buren. It's still one of the big mysteries of the series that was barely explored.
Imo, the bombs never fell. The world is the way it is because of DEI. That's why we never see anywhere outside of America. China is probably doing just fine.
A charismatic robot with "faulty hardware" (twist: it's a Robobrain) that makes him super persuasive has amassed in secret a huge cult of quasi-religious robots, machines, droids, and thinking computers etc. that see themselves as the sole inheritors of the wasteland and the future of life on Earth; in their quasi-religion they are "truth (1)" and everyone else is is "false (0)", and they are basically a little bit like way more organised and ideological Raiders, but are a faction of robots.
They directly challenge the Brotherhood of Steel (and others) for their monopoly on Wasteland technology, and frequently raid settlements for their tech as well, often capturing and liberating any machines and robots etc. that might be there too, and converting them to their cause.
Their cause is the destruction of all remaining life in the Wasteland, and the construction of a single massively powerful machine God. All tech and materiel they steal / loot / obtain goes toward that goal primarily, of creating the machine God. They see the great war as a turning point in which life was meant to be snuffed and the candle passed to the machines, to continue civilisation upon the Earth. All true confrontations of machine vs. machine can be solved peacably within a digital environment, a virtual reality that the cult has access to a little bit like Braun's VR world in Fallout 3, but more advanced. They do not need to wage war in the real world against one another. They espouse peace between machines.
They have access to pre-war troves of advanced computer viruses that allow the cult to stealthily infiltrate even advanced Wasteland entities like the Enclave, Insitute, Brotherhood of Steel, etc. and procure intelligence of stashes of tech, troop movements, strategies, and so on.
The cult has seized pre-war RobCo facilities that were in ruins, and re-built them, refurbished them, and are using them to construct new robot models and to re-program extant models to serve the cult's desires.

european settlers with european 50's retrofuture tech based on british and central european retro future concepts (if they exist)
Would be fun to do Australia and have warring tribes of abbos and bogans amongst horrifyingly dangerous snakes and spiders and shit. Get Michael Cusack on board to write. If it had to be in continental US, put it in south florida.
A while back I had this idea for a Fallout game, or at least an expansion, set in the Deep South. Atlanta or maybe Charleston. The concept was a parody of antebellum society where the wasteland survivors had set up a comfy life for themselves by capturing a bunch of Ghouls and forcing them to work the land.
Then 4 came along and did the whole synth/slave/railroad mess and ruined the idea forever.
Still, I know we are a joke to the rest of burgerland and an outright caricature to the world at large, but why does the series never seem to touch on what befell this particular corner of Americana?
Because 1, 2, and NV were set in the same general area along with 3 and 4. Maybe 5 will break away and try a new area or will just memberberries the capitol wasteland or something.
Yeah I get that but at least NV gave some indication of the situation in the Midwest and Texas in the form of the Legion. In 3, the first game set on the east coast, we get hints about New England and the Commonwealth via quests.
I can't recall even ever reading a single line of fluff about anything south of Virginia. No records of vaults in major cities there. Factions.
Seems like a waste

Cultists themed around their own interpretation of Medusa who purposely blind or castrate men, led by a ghoul women who’s upset nobody likes her and refuses to see why. Good ending involves reprogramming a robot to like her or probing her ego to fight her in an arena
I would just create Van Buren. It has everything you want.
>You are The Prisoner
>You break free from Tibbets Prison
>You are being hunted down by the robotic prison guards
>You are carrying the New Plague
>You are the threat
It would be a spiritual sequel to NV, takes place East of the Dam
No. Frick off. Some parts of Van Buren were decent ideas but the story in general was fricking moronic
It fits OP's criteria without leaning on cliches.
>you wake up in a abandoned Vault with no memories of how you got there
>has both remains of the original Vault Dwellers and some new factions that took it over for their own purpose
>go to the nearest town
>everyone knows you and treats you like a great paragon of justice
>go to another town
>everyone knows you and treats you like a horrible monster
>turns out the Vault experiment was about implanting memories
>a new factions discovered in and used it to reprogram various sleeper agents to do their bidding around the wasteland
>you were captured and turned into one of those agents, and that's why there are conflicting stories about your past and reputation around the wastes
>even your current memories might not actually be your but just another implant
>you have to defeat the conspiracy trying to take over wasteland
Make it take place is Russia.
Climate catastrophe is threatening the wasteland with irradiated destruction, there is a machine being developed by the Scientists Of Color but threatening them is a group of pale backwards wastelanders called The Trampers that do not trust the science and think it is an affront to their god. The gameplay loop will mostly consist of you clearing out Tramper camps of everyone including women and children and replacing them with minority citizens of the Scientists Of Color Internation, which will be visually rewarding as you get to see the Tramper camps cleaned up of racks of meat and poor shacks and replaced by vegan farming and modern styled earthen huts.
>Government controlled vault meant to house seed population for post-war civilians, no one important nor useless
>Sold as a regular vault, despite it basically eugenics
>Delivery mix up exposed classified documents, management cabal that would keep the plan under wraps never made it to the vault, the interim Overseer knows the secret and decides there's no benefit of exposing it
>X years later, the Overseer dynasty falls upon someone who decides to reveal it along with some kind of cataclysmic fault forcing the vault to open, either requiring a FO1 style "Go get a water chip" quest or just the vault needing to be abandoned
>Faced with siding with the Enclave and continuing the pre-war government's ideals while enjoying easy post-war life
>Or venturing out into the wasteland and fighting against the remnants of the cabal that was basically going to use you as cattle
