@@therealmorf I'm just happy my city lived despite us literally living on a Plateau the Llano Estacado in fact like one of the largest Plateau's in North America, were Lubbock Texas but it's probably because we only have 300k people in population
I'm from Louisville Kentucky and I can safely say that because my dad is a retired nuclear missile launch command officer when that NPC mentions "what's left of Kentucky" It's because Louisville and Lexington are massive strategic targets due to the ammo factories that were located here. Not to mention Fort Knox.
I'm from a town to the west of there (not gonna be specific) that also produced munitions for the military up until around the 60s or 70s, so I'm imagining in the Fallout timeline those factories either wouldn't shut down or would be restarted making the town a target for a low yield blast. If I had any sort of knowledge of mod-making, I'd definitely want to make a whole story mod involving factions trying to take over coal mines, raider gangs of Hoosiers coming across the irradiated Ohio fighting a gang of hillbillies, surviving small towns becoming city states and a story around either helping them form a coalition (similar to NCR), keeping them separated, or outright annihilation. Maybe throw in some folklore like a giant radioactive catfish as a nod to the Green River Monster. And of course, gotta have horses because if one state is gonna make sure horses don't go extinct, it'll be Kentucky. We'd probably build a whole vault for them before one for people.
All the corn mutated and replaced all the corn fields with flesh fields, Yum, locally sourced humans. Gary is still a lawless wasteland no matter what though so nothing changed from prewar to postwar.
@@masteroutlaw100sure, that'd be around Birmingham right? But what about Dothan? I think there'd be a peanut themed gang of raiders, and the town I grew up in right outside of Dothan would probably have a tomato cult because of the tomato festival and whatnot.
Well north alabama is probably a wasteland as bad as DC. Huntsville is where one of our major nuclear missile defense programs are for the entire country. Northern AL would’ve been wiped off the map 🤷🏼♂️
Fallout 5 should be Fallout New Orleans. The music selection would be insane, the vibes and historical references ample, and the environment perfect for a variety of mutated beasts. The Mississippi could cut through the map with two waring factions on each side. The southern part of the map could be the starting area around New Orleans, and the Northern region would be the higher level area in the crossroads of Louisiana. You could also incorporate Texas and Mississippi on the Far East and West portions of the map. You could have the antebellum south architecture, the French architecture, the Superdome, and pier and beam houses. You could have swamp biome, flatlands, and pine forest biomes. You could have swamp people, city raiders, Rednecks, and the French quarter aristocrats. Mutated Alligators, frogs, crawfish, mosquitos, snakes, and tons of other wildlife. Louisiana has so much potential and would feel drastically different from the other main line Fallout games. I'm probably biased since I was born and raised in Louisiana, but I know it would be a phenomenal Fallout game.
I've made this exact rant myself as well many times. I'd also like to point out the culture behind the Saints. Having a Raiderlike (i guess functioning like a less militarized Gunner) Faction in Black and Gold football uniforms that worship the Saints would be a great minor faction to have in the Background. Maybe a Brees pretender like the Kings in New Vegas lol Also, voodoo and Mardi Gras should be important in Fallout. Voodoo can be exactly what it is, while Mardi Gras could be a Christian Cult that believes these parades could summon God or something, but all of the floats are like, raider/mutant (make them insane killers) and instead of throwing beads, they shoot small firearms and throw a lot of grenades out of moving floats DLC could include the Gulf of Mexico, an irradiated oil spill that mostly takes place underwater and on oil rigs. Great place for the Enclave to be set at, on the rigs, with giant underwater vaults or facilities. Another DLC could be just Texas. Doesn't even have to be nuked tbh that place is already a RUST server. Lol but they've definitely got good DLC material.
I always wanted them to show canada since it was annexed i wonder how it would look compared to the states. I think there 1 vault there, atleast i think the tv screen in the show that showed them showed 1 in manitoba or something since its cannon now
Having flashbacks to these exact discussions after Fallout 3 yet we got Boston and West Virginia. As a former resident of 11 years, your absolutely right. Don't know about the lore or story, but the setting and atmosphere would be the MOST epic of any Fallout media. Seeing the city possibly bombed (there's a naval base on the West Bank and generally being the mouth of Mississippi is an important economic and strategic target) BUT ALSO flooded due to pump stations not working and only the river banks and esplanade ridge still above water would be EPIC. Not to mention the inter-neighborhood wars of the Tenpenny-likd Audobon residents to the liberation fighters of the 7th Wars and keep to ourselves Algiers, I'm ready for this. Basically, hire me as a consultant 🤣
For anyone curious, the mention of a "warehouse in South Dakota" said by MacCready, is actually a reference to the show "Warehouse 13". It was a show on Sci-Fi that was about this mysterious massive warehouse in South Dakota, that stored artifacts that could do weird and interesting things. Things like Pavlov's Bell, that made anyone who heard it drool. Or a guitar owned by Jimi Hendrix that casted out lightning from the person playing it. That kinda stuff. Honestly a really cool show, and I'm surprised to see that someone who worked on Fallout 4 actually knew it. As far as I knew it was pretty underground, haven't heard a lot of people talk about it at all.
It crossed over with Eureka, which had Felicia Day as a recurring character (she played Veronica in New Vegas). I wouldn't say it's a show that isn't on Bethesda's radar.
I only recently found out about the military activities in Anniston, and it explained perfectly why Anniston is one of the weirdest places I've ever been.
I’m from the town in Tennessee. It really is crazy that many people have no clue the Manhattan project took place here. I moved away a bit in highschool and argued with my history teacher over it. The actual history is very interesting. The town is called Oak Ridge, the guard towers are still on each end of town. The story of the prophet of oak ridge John Hindrex is a cool story as well
I think Tennessee would make a great fallout like Nashville have it as a part of the main game or dlc would be pretty cool to see the kings agin and maybe some other factions who are influenced by musicians
I'm from Washington State and not many people know the role the Hanford Nuclear Complex played in the Project either... and the state and feds spend millions every year in an ongoing cleanup!
I don't know what they were expecting. Really, it's history can be summed up in three words: cotton, racism, Walmart. It was a commodity crop state, but was too daft and greedy to diversify its economy. So, after the ahh, labor market crashed, it fell into obscurity. Without the Waltons it would just be known for Jim Crow.
Which is crazy. Arkansas has a Air force base. And it also has one of the largest ammo reserves in the U.S. for the military. Plus it has every natural resource. @@someoneyoudontknow6083
I was driving over the Potomac one day and the radio started playing the Ink Spots' "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire". It was a strange sensation.
Not sure if anyone's mentioned this yet, but Vim soda (at 35:41) is a reference to a real-world soda named Moxie. It's from Maine, and actually did become Maine's official soft drink in 2005! The taste is... challenging. It's sweet like a normal soda, sort of like a root beer, but there's a very bitter kick on the finish provided by the root they use for flavoring. Also, I now realize I know far too much about soda and am questioning my life decisions.
You can actually find Moxie as far west as Cincinnati Ohio, actually. There's a big international market called Jungle Jim's in Eastgate that has an entire shelf near the back stocked with various sodas. Among them are classic glass bottles of Moxie, just look for a orange/blue logo of a guy in a suit. One word of caution though... it's definitely a "love it or hate it" type of drink that lives up to it's "Distinctively Different!" motto pretty well. Try it if you ever get the chance.
@@midnightundead31 I've been there! That place is nuts, LOL (if anyone's interested there's videos on TH-cam). And since we're talking locations, I should mention the place I had my first Moxie: a place in Edmond, OK called "Pops." They have a cool retro looking store, the restaurant serves bison burgers, and they sell something like 600 varieties of soda (no, that's not a typo). Highly recommended if driving through Oklahoma.
One thing missing about North Carolina is the location of 'The Broken Banks' formerly known as The Outer Banks islands. It is mentioned by Tobar the ferryman in Fallout 3 point lookout as having been there.
When people ask where I was born I sometimes say “a ditch called Necropolis” then shortly after seeing their reaction I say Bakersfield and leave it there with no further explanation.
Please explain like I’m a 5 year-old French guy from Japan how locals would like us to pronounce it. I’ve toured the US southwest a few times and finally switched from saying “tac-sun” to “two-son”…
I never knew how many insanely popular voice actors worked on fallout new Vegas, hearing and recognizing Dave Fennoy voice Jed the traveling merchant, massive representation of voice acting done perfectly in fnv💪🙌
Id love to see Fallout taking place in New Orleans. Imagine a jazz-centric Fallout where people make new makeshift musical instruments after the Great War. We can see like a band that makes songs in big settlements like Diamond City. The vibe wouldve been immaculate. Like youd think people would revive music after 200 years to keep their sanity intact, right? But right now we only have Magnolia as the closest one
As a person born and currently living in New Orleans, and new to the Fallout mythos, I would say that that would be a good idea. Mutant Mardi Gras FTW lol
I believe in Fallout 2 in the Sierra Depot GNN transcript, it mentions that the Little Rock Saints played in the 2075 Super Bowl CXII. So there is one mention of an Arkansas city. 🎉
As a Pittsburgh, PA resident, Everett speaking about a town named Monroeville at 29:11 is a town I often visit. It is indeed a real town which lies around 30 minutes East of Pittsburgh. It's crazy to hear about Monroeville being in a piece of dialogue given no one outside of PA really knows that Monroeville exist. Insane level of detail from this game.
Having driven through the Squirrel Hill tunnel about a thousand times, I can see Monroeville being safe if the Burgh ever got nuked. Western PA is actually pretty mountainous and Pittsburgh is basically like a bowl. In an almost real life “Fallout” situation, my dad had to set up cots and such shit with the National Guard at the fallout shelter in Somerset PA when Three Mile Island happened. They were preparing to evacuate people from the eastern part of the state to the west. He said there was a color coded map that showed the safe zone started around Fulton and Huntington counties basically along the ridge line.
I remember seeing "Mt.Pleasant, Pa" in a Killzone level that also took place in said area. Though they made it as if there is nothing there in the game which I can understand I suppose.
Tennessee is mentioned twice in 76, once in that mothman book, and again by Trader Mirna's bodygaurds, but only in mention of a personal "incident" that happened to him in the area. Sidenote, North Carolina is mentioned so many times in the series I'm surprised we've never been there yet.
The Soda "Vim" from the Maine lore is most likely supposed to represent "Moxie", a Maine soda that is polarizing but many swear by it, including myself :)
I'm dying to know if it'll taste similar if Amazon makes it. . . they're selling Nuka-Cola Quantum, but that's original so there's no IRL soda to compare it to.
Man I REALLY wish that more details on Louisiana existed in the Fallout Universe, particularly New Orleans. I've always felt like New Orleans would be a perfect location for a Fallout game, like a sequel to New Vegas called Fallout: New Orleans. It's such an interesting and varied landscape, so much potential
They would have to do the whole state, and they would have to make the cities from Lake Charles to New Orleans accurate in street designs.Anything less wouldn't do it justice.
And maybe raider tribes live on constructed floatillas on Lake Pontchartrain or deep into the swamp. The French Quarter could be kind of like the New Vegas Strip. I'm thinking like, mutated gators and all sorts of stuff out there@@pjfloyd99
I've always said if I could choose the next Fallout location, it would be between New Orleans and Detroit. New Orleans and surrounding, hopefully expansive, areas would be fantastic. The cultures and landscapes alone could fulfill plenty of storyline. Add in the various local lores, history, voodoo etc. that would make for some interesting stuff. Endless dlc opportunities with Louisiana too. Detroit and surrounding areas would serve a very different interest. An industrial setting. Maybe a game mechanic centered around building, fabricating, repairing and customizing in great detail, robots, power armor, vertibirds, lore friendly locomotives of some kind. The surprisingly expansive wilderness of Michigan could play a role too. Which could work cuz you really don't have to travel too far from the city of Detroit before you find endless woodlands. And of course there's the lakes. Ample dlc opportunities there traveling the lakes to different towns.
I’m surprised Tennessee barely has any lore to it, since the manhattan project took place in oak ridge. that’s where we got the uranium for little boy, the bomb that was used on Hiroshima.
As a Montanan I can confirm for those who are skeptical that it looks like a desert wasteland irl that around Butte it begins to open up. There’s mountains, but they become less elevated and spread out. It’s still the highest point in major cities across the state, but it definitely becomes high desert plains. Because wheat grass is one of the few plants that survive in this type of terrain, it likely dries up due to nuclear radiation, on top of the mining resources being sapped in our current timeline by the 1980s.
True, the area surrounding Butte is pretty much a wasteland already. It also follows that Montana would be a target during Fallout's Great War, considering the fact that a sizeable portion of America's nuclear arsenal is located here - there are hundreds of nuclear misile silos practically in our backyards.
@@GreatOldOneCthulhu It would be cool to see how the Native American reservations near the Flathead and in the northeast part of the state would develop after the great war, assuming they still existed in the universe after our timeline and fallout's diverge. As for Butte, I could see it being home to a vault due to either vault tec or another entity making use of the shear number of mining tunnels under the city. Also there might be some interesting, if not terrifying mutants created by a mixture of the Berkley Pit's water and FEV.
Honestly Tennessee could be a cool pick since i heard the bombs never fell there in lore. Knowing the Manhattan Project there. And knowing the Tennessee smokey mountains and hills. Nashville Music City. The Roman Parthenon would be crazy to be filled with maybe surviving Ceaser members. Andrew Jackson home. Davy Crockett Storys and places. Civil War locations. Chattanooga. Be the perfect East forest/open lands like a Red Dead like game. And a town between Nashville and Knoxville. Cookeville. Or Cookieville you could parody.
and of course, you would have Pockets of Enclave and Brotherhood of Steel holing themselves up at both Ft Campbell and Arnold AFB as well as trying to secure any pre-war nuclear technology lying around at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Y-12 National Security Complex.
Maine; as a Maine resident, it’s clear that the ‘Vim’ soda is clearly inspired by/a reference to Moxie… Moxie is the oldest soda in the US, invented in Maine, is the official state soda, and is extremely polarizing, you either love it or hate it, there’s no middle ground.
This is a great video! Thank you so much, I didn't know all the extra lore surrounding my home of Alaska. I do wish there was more lore surrounding Nebraska; it's my favorite of the lower 48.
I think the next Fallout series should take place in Minnesota/Wisconsin. I think it'd be interesting to put their new game engine update to work, and have some nice denser woods, and seasonal changes that you'd get there, as well as more rolling hills and lakes. It would be a great setting to test out and put in a season mechanic for Summer, fall, winter, and spring.
I'm just surprised Fallout being a post apocalypse game has not touched the Great Lakes chain of Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. Seriously the relatively small area has over 20% of the entire worlds fresh water. Plus it would be fun to see CRAM (SPAM knock off) existing in game food item HQ as it would have been created in MN. It also would not be unreasonable to assume that likely Sugar Bombs were too (General Mills).
“St. Louis, sadly also lays in ruin. plagued by super mutants, raider gangs, and the Beast Lords” What the fuck is a beast lord? Am I missing something?
Somewhat sad to know that Bakersfield, the city that I live in, becomes necropolis. I probably might live to 2077, but let’s hope no bombs will drop on October 23.
They're going to drop sooner. China's already been mobilized. Hacking our jets, boats, corporate espionage and theft of AI. 2077 is gonna be 2037 for us. Good luck and God Speed.
Pretty sure a travelling ghoul merchant from Fallout 76 mentioned going through Chattanooga, Tennessee to the Foundation settlement in West Virginia. This would also suggest that I-75, I-81 and Knoxville should be somewhat safe enough to travel to, since they’re all on the path from Chattanooga
There's an actual company called General Atomics based out of San Diego. Their location in Shannon, Mississippi, just south of Tupelo, MS, developed the electromagnetic arrestor system on the Ford class of nuclear carriers. They were tasked with developing a gauss gun to eventually replace the 5 inch guns on US Navy ships. They also developed the Predator drone and it's algorithms/AI targeting systems and are working on ship and aircraft based lasers, among several other things, including cold fusion. Once they get that figured out, household and military spec robots are the next logical step. :)
1:36 Issaquah is my hometown, so this was absolutely shocking to hear. I had to do a double-take to make sure I heard that right. Glad to know my home becomes the center of a new empire hahahaha
Want to add that due to the Brotherhoods presence in the Chicago area, it’s likely they would also be active around Gary Indiana and possibly South Bend
When I have to travel to Indiana from Chicago, I pass by a ton of factories. Wouldn’t be surprised if in the Fallout world all the factories and manufacturing are up and running thanks to the war effort before the bombs dropped
What i love about the far harbor dlc, being a mainer myself, is the vim sofa reference. Maine has a real "state drink" called moxie, which honestly tastes like crap, but mainers really love it and you cant find it anywhere else unless you special order it. I dont know of anyone outside of the state that knows about moxie, so vim being a "widely unknown" version is very accurate.
Im from Arizona and its so funny when Raul got mad about how the tribes call it Two Sun instead of Tuscon just like a true Arizonan. (A lot of people call it Tucson
Yeah I pronounced that valley wrong for ages, only ever having seen it in print. When I finally heard the pronunciation I had to retrain my own, lol. But I understand, I currently live in Minnesota and the way people say many of our locations, like Wayzata, has that same cringe effect.
I wonder if the next Fallout could take place in the Midwest. Since Bethesda called out Tactics as being non-canon, the Midwest is more or less a blank canvas, other than the rogue unit of Brotherhood out there doing something other than Tactics. I'd at least like to see what's been going on in my neck of the woods, what I'd hope for are sentient plants. IDK why, but the thought of all the crops we grow here becoming sentient from mutations like that vault in New Vegas just hits that itch in my mind.
i wouldnt, ND has most of our nukes, so would be a target. MN has 10k lakes. 10k irradiated lakes! imagine the monsters that would come from that. not to mention lake superior, the largest land locked sea on earth. @richardspillers6282
For anyone interested, I recommend if you have HOI4 to play the Old World Blues mod essentially it's submods. From major factions to new small nations. Alaska to Louisiana.
I feel in Alabama, after 200 years, you’ll find disfigured humans with webbed toes, 15 fingers, tiny heads and 3 arms. The city smells like pissed, decayed and in ruins. And the weirdest thing is that no battle or nuclear bomb was dropped in that state.
Cool thing about Monroe Connecticut is where the museum of the occult( museum owned by the warrens )is located I feel like had a nuclear war happened all the haunted/possessed objects would run wild in neighboring towns
Alaska wasn't ravaged, Anchorage was. To ravage the entire state (the vast majority of which is wilderness, even in the fallout universe) would be quite a feat.
There's an elderly sniper fella in fallout 3 named Arkansas, he lives out in the town of minefield and i can't help but wonder if he's callin himself that because he's from there. If he is then that must mean people are still living there, hopefully thriving alright.
Listened to this whole video while cleaning just waiting to hear about my state of Arkansas, it never came. Guess that means Arkansas survived unscathed and was a happy little state on it's own 🤣
As someone from Montana, and having been to Butte many times. I can confidently say, that picture of the mine could've been taking today. Butte was once the largest city in the state, then the mines dried up and everyone left.
I'm surprised there isn't more about Michigan in the Fallout Universe. The timeline diverges from ours in the 1960s, and that's when Detroit was at its peak as the industrial heart of America. Detroit was nuked, but nowhere else in Michigan, including the UP, is, so that makes me think most of the northern chunk of the state was unharmed.
Hey uh, I'm from Arkansas and I'd like to point out there are mentions of Arkansas. A sniper in Fallout 3 is named Arkansas (weirdly), and a terminal in Fallout 2 mentions the football team the 'Little Rock Saints'. Little Rock is our capital. Just wanted to make sure you knew.
Holy Cow! You dang near said Gallipolis correctly! I'm from there, spent a lot of years in the service. You have no idea how badly I've heard it mangled! Good on you!
"Unfortunately nothing is known about the State of Minnesota." There's almost a hint of politeness and respect in the way this is worded, yet it's dissapointing to learn that Minnesota wasn't mentioned in the Fallout Universe so far. That's a shame, because Lake Superior's Split Rock Lighthouse (if the game developers were to decide that it still existed) would be an interesting checkpoint for the Brotherhood of Steel.
Everyone. But Todd Howard likes pussy gay potions and swords skyrim gay shit then what people actually want, fallout which is actually cool and original
I still think Dayton Ohio would make a great setting for a Fallout game. The US Air Force museum is there along with Wright Patterson Air Force base. The NCR corporation was located in Dayton as well. NCR could be transformed into one of the tech companies in the game like RobCo. A few miles to the east is Springfield which is the location for an Ohio National Guard Air base. Dayton was also a major hub for GM for many years. GM could be portrayed as one of Fallouts car companies. Interstates 70 and 75 cross just north of Dayton so there are plenty of overpasses and such. The M1 Abrams manufacturing plant is located in Lima Ohio, so that could be used some how.
I'm from Enon. Dayton would be a crater because of Wright Patt. When I was growing up, it was always listed in the top 10 military targets in the US. I actually spent the night at that National Air Guard "base" as a boy scout (Troop 17 REPRESENT), it's more like a huge brick building. The Air Force museum is cool because you could have quests where your science skill is around making one of the old planes fly, though probably not the wright flyer, haha. Maybe the SR71 from outside, though those eat fuel like crazy. I wonder if they still have the F4s there that used to fly over my house every day as a kid?
@@wickedjay13 I would love it if we could just have a 76 mission where you go to Cbus and you do something at the Capitol building, but you also need to go up to OSU and you have to do a part of a quest or something at a partially broken Horseshoe. That would be an epic sight. Probably even more so for the people from up north.
As someone form sc there three scenario I can think of 1. Bomb hit there then there be a giant lake fill with unholy creatures sinking most of the land unless ur more inland 2. most high class civilian survived and sc has nuclear power plant there be private city thriving for those that are conservative ( second enclave ) 3. I like to think that although everything is flooded with radiation water SC becomes scattered with island with ports like Charleston thriving

Fallout 5 should be Fallout New Orleans. The music selection would be insane, the vibes and historical references ample, and the environment perfect for a variety of mutated beasts. The Mississippi could cut through the map with two waring factions on each side. The southern part of the map could be the starting area around New Orleans, and the Northern region would be the higher level area in the crossroads of Louisiana.

You could have the antebellum south architecture, the French architecture, the Superdome, and pier and beam houses. You could have swamp biome, flatlands, and pine forest biomes. You could have swamp people, city raiders, Rednecks, and the French quarter aristocrats. Mutated Alligators, frogs, crawfish, mosquitos, snakes, and tons of other wildlife. Louisiana has so much potential and would feel drastically different from the other main line Fallout games. I'm probably biased since I was born and raised in Louisiana, but I know it would be a phenomenal Fallout game.

Also, voodoo and Mardi Gras should be important in Fallout. Voodoo can be exactly what it is, while Mardi Gras could be a Christian Cult that believes these parades could summon God or something, but all of the floats are like, raider/mutant (make them insane killers) and instead of throwing beads, they shoot small firearms and throw a lot of grenades out of moving floats
DLC could include the Gulf of Mexico, an irradiated oil spill that mostly takes place underwater and on oil rigs. Great place for the Enclave to be set at, on the rigs, with giant underwater vaults or facilities.

Having flashbacks to these exact discussions after Fallout 3 yet we got Boston and West Virginia. As a former resident of 11 years, your absolutely right. Don't know about the lore or story, but the setting and atmosphere would be the MOST epic of any Fallout media. Seeing the city possibly bombed (there's a naval base on the West Bank and generally being the mouth of Mississippi is an important economic and strategic target) BUT ALSO flooded due to pump stations not working and only the river banks and esplanade ridge still above water would be EPIC. Not to mention the inter-neighborhood wars of the Tenpenny-likd Audobon residents to the liberation fighters of the 7th Wars and keep to ourselves Algiers, I'm ready for this.
Basically, hire me as a consultant 🤣
For anyone curious, the mention of a "warehouse in South Dakota" said by MacCready, is actually a reference to the show "Warehouse 13". It was a show on Sci-Fi that was about this mysterious massive warehouse in South Dakota, that stored artifacts that could do weird and interesting things. Things like Pavlov's Bell, that made anyone who heard it drool. Or a guitar owned by Jimi Hendrix that casted out lightning from the person playing it. That kinda stuff.
Honestly a really cool show, and I'm surprised to see that someone who worked on Fallout 4 actually knew it. As far as I knew it was pretty underground, haven't heard a lot of people talk about it at all.
I came here to say this.
That show was cool as hell haven’t watched it in years thanks for the memory lol
This was one of my favorite shows. It was so creatively written and amazingly done.
It crossed over with Eureka, which had Felicia Day as a recurring character (she played Veronica in New Vegas). I wouldn't say it's a show that isn't on Bethesda's radar.
I love that show.
Alabama has so many military and space related industries so I'm pretty certain it would make an interesting place for a Fallout mod.
yeah def would be also a hotspot for mutated animals bc of its high level serverity on enemy nation's list of targets.
Red Arsenal and the Space and Rocket center in Huntsville? That would be so cool!
The amount of DoD contracts in North Alabama are off the charts alone.
@@thegamingredneck1879not to mention mutant people running around thanks to 25 generations of inbreeding and a little radiation thrown in
I only recently found out about the military activities in Anniston, and it explained perfectly why Anniston is one of the weirdest places I've ever been.
I’m from the town in Tennessee. It really is crazy that many people have no clue the Manhattan project took place here. I moved away a bit in highschool and argued with my history teacher over it. The actual history is very interesting. The town is called Oak Ridge, the guard towers are still on each end of town. The story of the prophet of oak ridge John Hindrex is a cool story as well
I think Tennessee would make a great fallout like Nashville have it as a part of the main game or dlc would be pretty cool to see the kings agin and maybe some other factions who are influenced by musicians
My ex wife is from Oak Ridge, thats my only real connection to it lol
Yall only did 33 or less of it. New MexiQo. Did it all
@@rileyallen2363 Nobody ever says anything about Huntsville :(
I'm from Washington State and not many people know the role the Hanford Nuclear Complex played in the Project either... and the state and feds spend millions every year in an ongoing cleanup!
Arkansas
Arkansans: WOO
there is no mention of Arkansas
Arkansans: BOO
I see a lot of what im assuming are Arkansas residents upset in the comments here. I feel for you all.
I don't know what they were expecting. Really, it's history can be summed up in three words: cotton, racism, Walmart. It was a commodity crop state, but was too daft and greedy to diversify its economy. So, after the ahh, labor market crashed, it fell into obscurity. Without the Waltons it would just be known for Jim Crow.
Which is crazy. Arkansas has a Air force base. And it also has one of the largest ammo reserves in the U.S. for the military. Plus it has every natural resource. @@someoneyoudontknow6083
You live in Arkansas, that's close enough to an irl fallout game anyway
I was driving over the Potomac one day and the radio started playing the Ink Spots' "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire". It was a strange sensation.

You missed the biggest part of Kentucky fallout lore! President John Henry Eden in Fallout 3.
Well...'he' isn't actually from Kentucky
True but it is still mentioned. @@Teacko
Not sure if anyone's mentioned this yet, but Vim soda (at 35:41) is a reference to a real-world soda named Moxie. It's from Maine, and actually did become Maine's official soft drink in 2005! The taste is... challenging. It's sweet like a normal soda, sort of like a root beer, but there's a very bitter kick on the finish provided by the root they use for flavoring. Also, I now realize I know far too much about soda and am questioning my life decisions.
Moxie gang!
Mainer of 37 years, drank Moxie once, havnt touched it since.
You can actually find Moxie as far west as Cincinnati Ohio, actually. There's a big international market called Jungle Jim's in Eastgate that has an entire shelf near the back stocked with various sodas. Among them are classic glass bottles of Moxie, just look for a orange/blue logo of a guy in a suit. One word of caution though... it's definitely a "love it or hate it" type of drink that lives up to it's "Distinctively Different!" motto pretty well. Try it if you ever get the chance.
@@midnightundead31 I've been there! That place is nuts, LOL (if anyone's interested there's videos on TH-cam). And since we're talking locations, I should mention the place I had my first Moxie: a place in Edmond, OK called "Pops." They have a cool retro looking store, the restaurant serves bison burgers, and they sell something like 600 varieties of soda (no, that's not a typo). Highly recommended if driving through Oklahoma.
Moxie taste like non-alcoholic Jagermeister... I love it.
One thing missing about North Carolina is the location of 'The Broken Banks' formerly known as The Outer Banks islands. It is mentioned by Tobar the ferryman in Fallout 3 point lookout as having been there.
North Carolina gang where you at? 👊
Reporting for duty
We out here
I am glad you mentioned the Broken Banks that was mentioned in 3 just like you said.
We is here
Wait.. you're telling me Vault Tech built a vault in the side of Mount Saint Helens, WHICH IS AN ACTIVE VOLCANO!!
How is this in any way surprising?
probably vault techs attempt to recreate pompeii, classic vault tech
Have you ever played a fallout game? That's one of the least surprising things ever
For science.

I never knew how many insanely popular voice actors worked on fallout new Vegas, hearing and recognizing Dave Fennoy voice Jed the traveling merchant, massive representation of voice acting done perfectly in fnv💪🙌
And even on earlier games you got Ron Pearlman, Jim Cummings and Ronald Lee Ermey

Liam Nelson is in Fallout 3!
Kris kristofferson is chief Hanlon
@@OperatorMax1993 Perlman's been in every canon game; he's the newscaster in 4 and I'm sure he's somewhere in 76 too.
He's probably in all of the Bethesda developed ones but Yuri Lowenthal too. Every time I hear his voice I think "What's Spider-Man doing here?"
It'd be sick to see a Seattle based Fallout game. Go explore the vault where they let in a little radiation, turning them all into ghouls.
Id love to see Fallout taking place in New Orleans. Imagine a jazz-centric Fallout where people make new makeshift musical instruments after the Great War. We can see like a band that makes songs in big settlements like Diamond City. The vibe wouldve been immaculate.
Like youd think people would revive music after 200 years to keep their sanity intact, right? But right now we only have Magnolia as the closest one
As a person born and currently living in New Orleans, and new to the Fallout mythos, I would say that that would be a good idea.
Mutant Mardi Gras FTW lol

I believe in Fallout 2 in the Sierra Depot GNN transcript, it mentions that the Little Rock Saints played in the 2075 Super Bowl CXII. So there is one mention of an Arkansas city. 🎉
Nope, never

Doing 2AM laundry, and this drops. Heck yeah man, your voice oddly enough relaxes me like watching a nostalgic show. Keep up the awesome work! ❤😊

As a Pittsburgh, PA resident, Everett speaking about a town named Monroeville at 29:11 is a town I often visit. It is indeed a real town which lies around 30 minutes East of Pittsburgh. It's crazy to hear about Monroeville being in a piece of dialogue given no one outside of PA really knows that Monroeville exist. Insane level of detail from this game.
Same! Was looking for this comment. Shocked me when I first played back in the day!
Having driven through the Squirrel Hill tunnel about a thousand times, I can see Monroeville being safe if the Burgh ever got nuked. Western PA is actually pretty mountainous and Pittsburgh is basically like a bowl. In an almost real life “Fallout” situation, my dad had to set up cots and such shit with the National Guard at the fallout shelter in Somerset PA when Three Mile Island happened. They were preparing to evacuate people from the eastern part of the state to the west. He said there was a color coded map that showed the safe zone started around Fulton and Huntington counties basically along the ridge line.
I remember seeing "Mt.Pleasant, Pa" in a Killzone level that also took place in said area. Though they made it as if there is nothing there in the game which I can understand I suppose.
What a shame monroeville of all places. Thats almost like saying pitcairn survives.... and it probably would shitcairn is like a cockroach already
Mentioning Monroeville could be a reference to George Romero and Dawn of the Dead
Tennessee is mentioned twice in 76, once in that mothman book, and again by Trader Mirna's bodygaurds, but only in mention of a personal "incident" that happened to him in the area.
Sidenote, North Carolina is mentioned so many times in the series I'm surprised we've never been there yet.
Nobody cares. Its 76

The Soda "Vim" from the Maine lore is most likely supposed to represent "Moxie", a Maine soda that is polarizing but many swear by it, including myself :)
I'm dying to know if it'll taste similar if Amazon makes it. . . they're selling Nuka-Cola Quantum, but that's original so there's no IRL soda to compare it to.
"St Louis is in Ruins plagued by Super Mutants, Raider gangs and Beast wars" As someone from St Louis... Doesn't seem like much has changed
Man I REALLY wish that more details on Louisiana existed in the Fallout Universe, particularly New Orleans. I've always felt like New Orleans would be a perfect location for a Fallout game, like a sequel to New Vegas called Fallout: New Orleans. It's such an interesting and varied landscape, so much potential
Have missions to fix the pumps in the wards
And then the game ends with everyone dying to a nuclear hurricane and flood 😂
They would have to do the whole state, and they would have to make the cities from Lake Charles to New Orleans accurate in street designs.Anything less wouldn't do it justice.
And maybe raider tribes live on constructed floatillas on Lake Pontchartrain or deep into the swamp. The French Quarter could be kind of like the New Vegas Strip. I'm thinking like, mutated gators and all sorts of stuff out there@@pjfloyd99
I've always said if I could choose the next Fallout location, it would be between New Orleans and Detroit. New Orleans and surrounding, hopefully expansive, areas would be fantastic. The cultures and landscapes alone could fulfill plenty of storyline. Add in the various local lores, history, voodoo etc. that would make for some interesting stuff. Endless dlc opportunities with Louisiana too.
Detroit and surrounding areas would serve a very different interest. An industrial setting. Maybe a game mechanic centered around building, fabricating, repairing and customizing in great detail, robots, power armor, vertibirds, lore friendly locomotives of some kind. The surprisingly expansive wilderness of Michigan could play a role too. Which could work cuz you really don't have to travel too far from the city of Detroit before you find endless woodlands. And of course there's the lakes. Ample dlc opportunities there traveling the lakes to different towns.
Michigan is also mentioned in the mothership zeta dlc if you shoot the laser at the earth its said to have hit the detroit area
There is a ton of lore about Michigan and Detroit. This guy isn't getting it all
Nothing of value was lost xd

As a Montanan I can confirm for those who are skeptical that it looks like a desert wasteland irl that around Butte it begins to open up. There’s mountains, but they become less elevated and spread out. It’s still the highest point in major cities across the state, but it definitely becomes high desert plains. Because wheat grass is one of the few plants that survive in this type of terrain, it likely dries up due to nuclear radiation, on top of the mining resources being sapped in our current timeline by the 1980s.
@netherportals Precisely lmao. Delicious
True, the area surrounding Butte is pretty much a wasteland already. It also follows that Montana would be a target during Fallout's Great War, considering the fact that a sizeable portion of America's nuclear arsenal is located here - there are hundreds of nuclear misile silos practically in our backyards.
Damn you're cute and smart! I wish there were women like you in Washington State. 😮💨😍😘
@@drybones9807 Just gotta sift through the party girls and the OnlyFans girls.
@@GreatOldOneCthulhu It would be cool to see how the Native American reservations near the Flathead and in the northeast part of the state would develop after the great war, assuming they still existed in the universe after our timeline and fallout's diverge. As for Butte, I could see it being home to a vault due to either vault tec or another entity making use of the shear number of mining tunnels under the city. Also there might be some interesting, if not terrifying mutants created by a mixture of the Berkley Pit's water and FEV.
“Oh boy! Arkansas!”
“There’s no mention or information on Arkansas.”
“Oh”
@@VexdGamer I am also from Arkansas and it was sad to hear we did not have anything about us.
Honestly Tennessee could be a cool pick since i heard the bombs never fell there in lore. Knowing the Manhattan Project there. And knowing the Tennessee smokey mountains and hills. Nashville Music City. The Roman Parthenon would be crazy to be filled with maybe surviving Ceaser members. Andrew Jackson home. Davy Crockett Storys and places. Civil War locations. Chattanooga. Be the perfect East forest/open lands like a Red Dead like game. And a town between Nashville and Knoxville. Cookeville. Or Cookieville you could parody.
Then Bristol having a raider group that operate out of the Bristol Motor Speedway. Lmaoooo
and of course, you would have Pockets of Enclave and Brotherhood of Steel holing themselves up at both Ft Campbell and Arnold AFB as well as trying to secure any pre-war nuclear technology lying around at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Y-12 National Security Complex.
Post going around about the main hub being in Memphis with a ghoul wearing a Baldwin mask living in the bass pro pyramid
Maine; as a Maine resident, it’s clear that the ‘Vim’ soda is clearly inspired by/a reference to Moxie…
Moxie is the oldest soda in the US, invented in Maine, is the official state soda, and is extremely polarizing, you either love it or hate it, there’s no middle ground.
Came here for this the logo even kinda reminded me of it, moxie is lifeblood (also best hangover remedy)

I think the next Fallout series should take place in Minnesota/Wisconsin. I think it'd be interesting to put their new game engine update to work, and have some nice denser woods, and seasonal changes that you'd get there, as well as more rolling hills and lakes. It would be a great setting to test out and put in a season mechanic for Summer, fall, winter, and spring.

@@Theendman42 That legit just describes Wisconsin/Minnesota lol.. It can drop 4 feet of snow, and be 60 degrees the next day XD
I'm just surprised Fallout being a post apocalypse game has not touched the Great Lakes chain of Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. Seriously the relatively small area has over 20% of the entire worlds fresh water. Plus it would be fun to see CRAM (SPAM knock off) existing in game food item HQ as it would have been created in MN. It also would not be unreasonable to assume that likely Sugar Bombs were too (General Mills).

Ahh yes Bakerfield, where the very best of Californias Meth is produced.

Ngl, I wouldn't mind being a ghoul living there.
Pretty sure a travelling ghoul merchant from Fallout 76 mentioned going through Chattanooga, Tennessee to the Foundation settlement in West Virginia. This would also suggest that I-75, I-81 and Knoxville should be somewhat safe enough to travel to, since they’re all on the path from Chattanooga
I just realized Jed has the same voice actor as Lee Everett from The Walking Dead games, Dave has such a legendary voice
this would have been a great comment to come across when i was 13. used to run a walking dead game fan account on instagram with my online girlfriend.
It's crazy that North Dakota has no mentions considering how many Nuke Silos we had there before we moved to submarines in real life.
There's an actual company called General Atomics based out of San Diego. Their location in Shannon, Mississippi, just south of Tupelo, MS, developed the electromagnetic arrestor system on the Ford class of nuclear carriers. They were tasked with developing a gauss gun to eventually replace the 5 inch guns on US Navy ships. They also developed the Predator drone and it's algorithms/AI targeting systems and are working on ship and aircraft based lasers, among several other things, including cold fusion. Once they get that figured out, household and military spec robots are the next logical step. :)

Want to add that due to the Brotherhoods presence in the Chicago area, it’s likely they would also be active around Gary Indiana and possibly South Bend
When I have to travel to Indiana from Chicago, I pass by a ton of factories. Wouldn’t be surprised if in the Fallout world all the factories and manufacturing are up and running thanks to the war effort before the bombs dropped
I doubt much would have changed about Gary after the war.
Nah, they al actively ignore Indiana 100%. No reason to go there whatsoever.
"Nothing known about Wisconsin" not surprised, this is the first TH-camr i've ever heard pronounce it right.
What i love about the far harbor dlc, being a mainer myself, is the vim sofa reference. Maine has a real "state drink" called moxie, which honestly tastes like crap, but mainers really love it and you cant find it anywhere else unless you special order it. I dont know of anyone outside of the state that knows about moxie, so vim being a "widely unknown" version is very accurate.
Minnesota: "Unfortunately, nothing is known about the state of Minnesota"
Me (a Minnesotan): Fine, ill do it myself.

Bethesda: I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that.
I still like to think at least parts of LI,NY survived the nukes because it wouldn’t have had a lot to hit as far as military bases are concerned
I wonder if the next Fallout could take place in the Midwest. Since Bethesda called out Tactics as being non-canon, the Midwest is more or less a blank canvas, other than the rogue unit of Brotherhood out there doing something other than Tactics.
I'd at least like to see what's been going on in my neck of the woods, what I'd hope for are sentient plants. IDK why, but the thought of all the crops we grow here becoming sentient from mutations like that vault in New Vegas just hits that itch in my mind.
I'd imagine the Midwest is less apocalyptic
i wouldnt, ND has most of our nukes, so would be a target. MN has 10k lakes. 10k irradiated lakes! imagine the monsters that would come from that. not to mention lake superior, the largest land locked sea on earth. @richardspillers6282

As a Connecticut resident; being "stuck on the freeway as the bombs drop" sounds about fucking right
Never thought I’d see my hometown (Liberty, KY) get mentioned. I literally hollered at the screen.
I feel in Alabama, after 200 years, you’ll find disfigured humans with webbed toes, 15 fingers, tiny heads and 3 arms. The city smells like pissed, decayed and in ruins. And the weirdest thing is that no battle or nuclear bomb was dropped in that state.
Underrated comment
Well I mean Europe might be like that but Alabama on the other hand not really
And that's just Montgomery.
Alabama has the largest vault. And it's just the one. 12 families went in. 37 generations later, one family emerged
What's interesting is that technically someone can learn alot about American geography using this video
I'm more into TES but the more I learn about Fallout lore the more I like it
Cool thing about Monroe Connecticut is where the museum of the occult( museum owned by the warrens )is located I feel like had a nuclear war happened all the haunted/possessed objects would run wild in neighboring towns
Alaska wasn't ravaged, Anchorage was. To ravage the entire state (the vast majority of which is wilderness, even in the fallout universe) would be quite a feat.
I made my own lore for Michigan years ago for a Fallout PnP game, it needs some updating but Detroit is now Ford City 😂
There's an elderly sniper fella in fallout 3 named Arkansas, he lives out in the town of minefield and i can't help but wonder if he's callin himself that because he's from there. If he is then that must mean people are still living there, hopefully thriving alright.
i remember that old bastard... dead old bastard now
Nobody would have nuked Arkansas. No reason!
Listened to this whole video while cleaning just waiting to hear about my state of Arkansas, it never came. Guess that means Arkansas survived unscathed and was a happy little state on it's own 🤣
I hope so

Especially Hawaii
@@JaelinBezelwould be dope to have a Fallout Hawaii where you can have a boat for transport would be awesome
As someone from Montana, and having been to Butte many times. I can confidently say, that picture of the mine could've been taking today. Butte was once the largest city in the state, then the mines dried up and everyone left.
I'm surprised there isn't more about Michigan in the Fallout Universe. The timeline diverges from ours in the 1960s, and that's when Detroit was at its peak as the industrial heart of America. Detroit was nuked, but nowhere else in Michigan, including the UP, is, so that makes me think most of the northern chunk of the state was unharmed.
Hey uh, I'm from Arkansas and I'd like to point out there are mentions of Arkansas.
A sniper in Fallout 3 is named Arkansas (weirdly), and a terminal in Fallout 2 mentions the football team the 'Little Rock Saints'. Little Rock is our capital.
Just wanted to make sure you knew.
That's cool! I knew about the sniper but not the terminal. Shame they didn't mention the Razorbacks 😅
Holy Cow! You dang near said Gallipolis correctly! I'm from there, spent a lot of years in the service. You have no idea how badly I've heard it mangled! Good on you!

I'd start the video with a mention of the Commonwealth system that largely replaced states around 1970
"Unfortunately nothing is known about the State of Minnesota."
There's almost a hint of politeness and respect in the way this is worded, yet it's dissapointing to learn that Minnesota wasn't mentioned in the Fallout Universe so far. That's a shame, because Lake Superior's Split Rock Lighthouse (if the game developers were to decide that it still existed) would be an interesting checkpoint for the Brotherhood of Steel.
We Hoosiers of Indiana have kept things very quiet. Very good. Just the way we like things.
Who wishes they would’ve released a badass fallout instead of starfield?
Everyone. But Todd Howard likes pussy gay potions and swords skyrim gay shit then what people actually want, fallout which is actually cool and original
Me bc starfield is straight up mid it could've been cool needed more innovation
I still think Dayton Ohio would make a great setting for a Fallout game. The US Air Force museum is there along with Wright Patterson Air Force base. The NCR corporation was located in Dayton as well. NCR could be transformed into one of the tech companies in the game like RobCo. A few miles to the east is Springfield which is the location for an Ohio National Guard Air base. Dayton was also a major hub for GM for many years. GM could be portrayed as one of Fallouts car companies. Interstates 70 and 75 cross just north of Dayton so there are plenty of overpasses and such. The M1 Abrams manufacturing plant is located in Lima Ohio, so that could be used some how.
I often had an interesting idea for the Cinci area involving the Ohio River, the Cincinnati Terminal & the Loveland Frogman crypto creature
@@wickedjay13Ooo a Fallout: Queen City DLC could be pretty fun!
I'm from Enon. Dayton would be a crater because of Wright Patt. When I was growing up, it was always listed in the top 10 military targets in the US. I actually spent the night at that National Air Guard "base" as a boy scout (Troop 17 REPRESENT), it's more like a huge brick building.
The Air Force museum is cool because you could have quests where your science skill is around making one of the old planes fly, though probably not the wright flyer, haha. Maybe the SR71 from outside, though those eat fuel like crazy. I wonder if they still have the F4s there that used to fly over my house every day as a kid?
@@wickedjay13 I would love it if we could just have a 76 mission where you go to Cbus and you do something at the Capitol building, but you also need to go up to OSU and you have to do a part of a quest or something at a partially broken Horseshoe. That would be an epic sight. Probably even more so for the people from up north.
@eboethrasher they don't
As someone form sc there three scenario I can think of
1. Bomb hit there then there be a giant lake fill with unholy creatures sinking most of the land unless ur more inland
2. most high class civilian survived and sc has nuclear power plant there be private city thriving for those that are conservative ( second enclave )
3. I like to think that although everything is flooded with radiation water SC becomes scattered with island with ports like Charleston thriving
Im dying 😂 as someone from St.Louis it being in ruins and plagued by horrific battles is not surprising and very accurate
Big big props for properly pronouncing “Appalachia”
So many possibilities for future plots. It's a shame Todd can't make more than one of these per decade, apparently.
