9:43 It should be stated that FEV already has "Virus" in the acronym. So you are essentially saying "Forced Evolutionary Virus Virus". Don't worry avout it too much, eveb the original creators of Fallout 1 made this mistake

A detroit setting would be dope, being from there. Although its pretty much like fallout now so...

This story was excellent and I feel like it rly holds central idea and has a feel of fallout

I think this'll be a banger addition to the series once the problem with running the entirety of the Imperial Wasteland has been solved. What i'd add to this would be a hard charisma check alongside speech checks for major diplomatic decisions.

:O

the tower

I want a fallout in the Midwest. The coasts have gotten too much attention. It’s time for us to get some nuclear love here

I think the speech check against Comintariat would involve infighting within communist societies (like anarchist vs maoist) or the sterility of super mutants like in FO1 instead of just "its failed whenever it's been tried" especially because in the fallout universe that is equally true for capitalist societies

[Wild Wasteland] I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!

I don't really want fo5 to be in some major city like new york. I think even if it would have unique features it would just be more city crawling like 3 & 4, i want a big open desert like texas, or somewhere really snowy like the northern states Edit: new Orleans would also be cool Edit 2: yeah, your idea for new york does seem pretty good

This have been done before you must think of something new something nobody has done before

The question you must ask yourself do you want quality or quantity

Since Louisiana is home to so many species of insects and reptiles, I could see a TON of incredibly unique enemy types. Obviously, we'd likely see the return of the Gatorclaw from Fallout 4's nukaworld dlc, with Louisiana being home to thousands of gators, making the bayou incredibly dangerous to traverse in game. We could also see giant mutated snakes, most likely deathclaws too, obviously. Insect types, like mutated mosquitos, centipedes, roaches, and even spiders. All of these enemy types would possibly make the Cajun Wasteland of New Orleans, possibly one of the most dangerous places in the entire wasteland. Thats not even to mention the horrible weather, which would likely be made even worse by the nuclear war. We could see immense amounts of flooding. Possibly even irradiated hurricanes. On top of that, the city of New Orleans itself would be equally as interesting with the city's long history and culture. However, unlike previous cities, Nola could possibly be darker in tone than any other. Since the city itself is already considered to be incredibly haunted in MANY MANY areas of the city, this could make for an interesting spin on the Fallout series. I could imagine, the player hearing rumors about it from NPCs but not believing them at first, only to be walking through the city at night, seeing the sillhouette of a person on the distance, only for them to disappear as you get closer. The sort of thing that makes even the player wonder if the city is haunted. One side quest I could imagine. Is hearing the locals, talk about a local mythical creature in the bayou, called the Rougarou. Prompting the player to go search for the creature and kill it, only to realize its an irradiated mother gatorclaw, twice the size of the rest. This could be a challenging and interesting mission, and a cool way to bring their own cryptid into the world, since the Rougarou is a real life cryptid in the area with a similar description, much like the Mothman in west Virginia. Idk, this seems like one HELL of a game, the more I think about it.

Would love to see a follow up of this with your ideas for 2 dlc like maybe one with you going to the root of the communist capital and maybe another with a rural New York

I want a game in Washington so bad. It could have bigfoot, hairy deathclaws (because its cold), and part of canada could be explorable. Maybe Victoria? I need it. I need it bad.

I'm pretty sure New York is completely destroyed. In FO4 there's a terminal talking about how it got hit much worse than Boston and no one lives there or something like that.

I know this video is a few years old but I like the idea. Now that they have a TV show out, I’m sure the gaming company is going to receive some sort of royalties that would be a substantial amount of money to invest in creating more fallout games. Perhaps one for each state it would be expensive, but with the popularity of the TV show putting more people back on the consul to play While waiting for another season, I’m sure they can afford to make games that reflect popular areas in each of the 50 states It would be neat to have a fallout Yellowstone Highly radioactive Yellowstone sitting on top of the active volcano🤷🏻‍♂️.

Tbh, I love hate these short of videos: Love: makes me imagine on how far the story could go. Hate: it makes me wish the makers could go on this route.

Or you could install the LONDON mod!

The biggest over all story in my opinion would be fixing rhe river lock system. as someone from louisiana the river lock is important due to how it keeps the mississippi river on the path to through new orleans and not through the atchafalaya basin river. Let be honest in fallout new orleans would continue to sink due to many reason like today major on being there is no new soil being brought in through drought. Fixing the river lock and or changing it is contested today so imagine the story of fixing and changing the direction of the river to recover the rest of new orleans would be interesting due people want to use the river locks for their own reason factions that dont want it fix or wanted it fixed. Just as someone from louisiana this river lock system and spillways for tge river are a massive part of are state and political culture. i dont use look at politics but the river, river locks and spillways affect our way of life and culture today. which is why it would work so well as it would it still affect us cajuns in fallout.

Plsplsplsplspls continue this series

I will say a few ideas I have for a Fallout: New Orleans. 1. A linguistic approach to the post-apocalypse, think about a bunch of swamp folk with accents so heavy, they're basically speaking a new language. If you run a high intelligence build, you can figure out what they're saying. 2. Subfactions, using the Union as an example, there might be two who see the Union going in a different way. For example "The Syndicate", led by a guy from New California or Texas who's basically an anarchist in the style of the Spanish Civil War anarchists and "The Gray Boys" who are Kingfish's personal guard dressed like confederates with a leader who's trying to basically make the Union a military junta and expand since he was the subject of a Vault experiment on subliminal messaging. 3. An optional faction going through a research facility with holotapes describing troubles securing contracts because of their "Rivals out west". With bloody graffitti saying "Destroy it!" And the last holotape you find, there's a package and the last words are "Why did they send us a toaster and a holotape?"

I love the idea.

4 years later still a good idea!!

random major city, geck, heavy focus on vault, fev, brotherhood, mutants are we sure youre not a bethesda employee???

You can just hold the red harvest whiskey (or anything) and carry it out of sight without putting it into your inventory, instead of trying to act fancy about it by pushing it with another item.

In my head After mass nuclear drops across the USA, New Orleans may not exist, it could be drowned. That whole area would possibly be part of the Gulf. This could make for a unique setup like water world or something.

I’ve been saying for years this is where obsidian deserves to make another fallout game. Fuck Bethesda, they can have New York, obsidian would cook up a banger game and story in this setting!

I'd Like a fallout game set in Canada/alaska it would put some interesting gameplay and creatures and, we can possibly get more info on the battle of Anchorage

the end is the most out of character this series could be. the enclave not doing the FEV, but instead communists, who earlier only gotten into a war due to resource scarcity after overconsumption (see FO4 intro), a typical capitalist problem ariding from the constant need of growth. I also don’t know whether you wanted to create a parallel to Covid, but I‘m not aware of communist bio tests comparable to MK Ultra, so killing US citizens is more in character for the US government. I mean you could criticize mismanagement, which would fall short due to better technology, but semi-realistic due to lack of communication infrastructure and scarcity of technology after. losing all allies due to misunderstanding of communism would be an interesting plot, yet a big coorporation like bethesda doing capitalist things like unfinished products, unfinished games, in app purchases and treatibg their workers bad (crunching) wouldn’t even suggest that a system deleting coorporate profits had any merit ever it’s also interesting how people cry about Mao, despite ignoring previous hardships (and annual famines, though smaller in scale) of the previous china they had no problem being feudalist (with most people sleeping beside livestock on straw as peasants, even in mountainous regions, for example, similar living conditions were also experienced in Tibet before it’s liberation celebrated by most, but obviously villified by those losing their privilege of living in temples maintained by slaves, like the dalei lama who had 1600 personal servants)

Why does everyone forget that in the Fallout time-line we Anexed Canada and that it's now part of The United Commonwealths? I would LOVE to see a game set in Canada. New environment, nes creatures, new factions that AREN'T The Brotherhood Of Steel and no Super Mutants.

Fallout 3 just ripped off Fallout 1. I mean getting water for everyone as the main storyline. Fallout 4 was just 3 reverse in that the parent was looking for the child and now 76. Just give it to Obsidian and let them make a Fallout game in a proper amount of time. Bethesda is just Power Armor, Super Mutants and Brotherhood Of Steel and knows nothing about how a Fallout game works.

Dude why are you making this? You don't fare bout the story, you'll just spend 40+ hours crafting and playing post nuclear Sims

Bethesda at this point should hire fans to make fallout as fans have had better ideas for a fallout game than the developers

310 views in 5 year's how is that even possible with such quality like dude I'm sorry the algorithm has buried you

I think, with very high speech and a lot of work, there could be another ending. Wherein The Comintariat forces, the Enclave/Manhattan Republicans, the Marshals, and representatives from the Free Cities come together in the United Nations HQ and broker a treaty of unilateral confederation: A strong local autonomy and authority to get Free Cities’ support, high reputation with/being able to somehow convince the Marshals to integrate into the new armed forces of ‘New New York’, a socialist economy and one-party system to integrate the Comintariat, and linking it all up with assurances of loyalty to the preservation of the United States and its identity, under the Enclave. New New York would function as a home for all, with the final screen being an image of a reconstructed Lady Liberty, holding her torch and proclamation, that this city shall be that ‘Shining City upon a Hill’, a New Jerusalem; the site of a New America, a New New York! (New York by Frank Sinatra, the opening theme of the game; albeit made more impactful and, rather than being ominous, conveys the bright future of the ‘Big Apple’.

Urban Rangers 4 lyfe! I also really like how the BoS is a minor faction this time around.

Hopefully the factions in Fallout 5 will be better than Fallout 4.

i like it bot i would replace the super mutants with just deformed mutants they are overused and the brotherhood also replaced, maeby replaced with enclave cientist undercover and thus being a easy route for the empire quest

This video is perfection except for one small thing in my opinion. I feel like a different kind of virus instead of FEV could have served a more interesting force story wise. Maybe some sort of intelligent, sentient, and hive mind like organism that is made of trillions of cells that can rapidly multiply and travel through water. This antagonist would have been a pre war American Bio Weapon that was made to be deployed on the night of october 23 2077 onto the Chinese mainland in order to kill and dismantle the Chinese government. (this works because the virus would be intelligent to comprehend commands) Obviously the virus never got deployed because the bombs fell first. The reason why the virus was "awoken" from the ship is because the commentariat had sent out a squad for recon as part of an operation to gain a foothold in the region in the future. Things don't go according to plan and the squad is killed by the virus after they release it from it's submerged container by mistake and are defenseless as the virus (without orders) is set to defend itself from all threats no matter who they are. This makes sense because it was meant to be released and given orders to, but with no orders for so long it has developed a survival instinct that scientists couldn't have accounted for as it wasn't even meant to exist for this long. But because of it's prolonged existence it has grown human level intelligence and strives for survival. The virus is released through water, but is weak after laying dormant without sustenance, going into essentially a hibernative state where it could still think but didn't act unless it was freed. So it decides to wait weeks for it to rain again and puts itself into the water vapor. It lands on two guards that were out patrolling outside vault 100 and kills both of them right before they get home. This allows that virus to repeat this cycle of gaining strength in small fatalities until it has the strength to move rapidly for long distances for longer periods of time. The virus would be growing stronger as the playthrough progresses and would eventually result in two conflicts. The conflicts that are mentioned in the video, and a plot where the virus is growing stronger and stronger and lays waste to smaller villages and settlements if the player doesn't help them when the townsfolk notice that a disease of some sort has been seemingly "travelling" between settlements when it rains. This could lead to epidemics in certain regions where it rains and you could have certain wasteland creatures be affected with the virus that could kill you quickly if they bite, spit, bleed on you, etc. I feel like the brotherhood, enclave, and commentariat trying to domesticate the virus in some sort of way by fighting over control of a secret government facility that the brotherhood has control of. No matter who you side with you would be in a three way battle with the other factions. Enclave and commentariat are fighting the brotherhood and each other for control of the outpost and the brotherhood fighting both the enclave and the commentariat to maintain control, but they have a chance because they are in a defensive position and the enclave and commentariat are fighting each other to try and get in. Eventually the side the player sides with will win and you will grant your faction the ability to control the virus with a sort of biological link with a host and the virus. The virus originally was meant to be controlled by the president of the united states with this link. But the player character is told to enter the machine when they are ready and they assume control over the virus in a power tip sort of section. In this section they would infiltrate both of the major opposing factions bases and either covertly or directly kill the leaders of the factions with some variations. Sense the virus was meant as to be a intelligent biological weapon, it can kill in different ways offering the player more variation in how they kill and where they kill. Killing a leader when they are having a cup of water, or making them vomit blood in their sleep for example. This section would obviously be the ending of the story after you assume control of greasetown because this would virtually assume control over the entire empire wasteland as the virus could kill any opponent that comes into contact with a fluid at the press of a button. (essentially) I also feel like giving the player the option to go back and try and assume control over vault 100 would be interesting as a choice with this technology as you could make vault 100 submit to your rule as you control the virus. Other means of controlling vault 100 would be interesting without the virus as well. Maybe political discourse or leading a raid with your faction after the main conflict or after you reach a certain rank within that major faction. I dunno why i yapped for this long tho and thank you for reading if you did.

No Brotherhood of steel please, stop this... maybe in a small dlc they are a weak detachment but stop this faction is in every single game

I had that issue and i just reinstalled tf2 and it fixed it

I feel like they would have to introduce what became of the Italian mafia, and Bc of the shogunate, the yakuza

Great idea, though the end I felt like slightly fell apart, mostly due to the mustache twirling evilness of the communist faction

2:00 solution: get rid of the creation engine

I want a New Orleans Fallout so bad but New York would be fantastical

bro earned a sub. doing the (finished) work of a whole team just for a concept!

omg i wanna play this so much!

This is a really cool concept for fallout 5 which I actually would love to see

This was so good and then you lost me at the Communists unfortunately
