We've been to Boston, Vegas, and Washington DC across the Fallout series, and there are plenty of other iconic real-world locations that fans want to see explored in the next game. One that consistently crops up is New York City, one of the USA's most recognisable cities, but would it make for a good backdrop to a post-apocalyptic game?
"Admittedly there is no lore that says New York City was a giant radioactive crater," boundforqueenstown said. "The rumour has existed before 2013, but it's never mentioned in the games even in the Fallout Bible as a crater or utterly destroyed. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Fallout 4 briefly describes several cities as 'gone' including NYC, but the other cities described still exist in some form."
NYC was listed in the as one of the major targets in the war, alongside Boston, DC, and Philadelphia. We've seen two of these locations before, so while NYC might have been described as lost, that doesn't mean it's completely uninhabitable. The city and, especially its surrounding areas, could be a fitting backdrop for a game then, but putting plausibility aside, fans are debating whether they even want to see another giant, notableཧ💝 city.
"Just hearing 'Fallout: New York' on paper doesn't get me excited because it's easily one of the most represented cities in gaming and you can find multiple different interpretations and takes on the city that I feel it's kinda overdone," sonofabitxh said.
"Please no more big cities in my fallout", shortbreath 980 said. This was echoed by Lucifer_Delight who said, "More deserts, and settlements. Less sightseeing. Leave that to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Grand Theft Auto".
Others, like MillardKillmoore, argue that "The skyscrapers would make for a pretty different setting", something randomocity327 says could be used for "more vertical level design... imagine a diamon♚d city/rivet city type civilization but in t🎶he Empire State Building".
Another suggestion is that, due to years of neglect and a lack of maintenance, combined with the bombinꩵgs, New York City should be submerged either fully or partly underwater, with BrendonWahlberg putting forward the idea of connecting buildings via makeshift walkways.
These are all unique ideas that would make Fallout 5 stand out from its past, but it's a long way off. We still have 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:S𒆙tarfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 to launch yet - who knows how old we'll be when we step foot into the wastelands again? Maybe when it finally rolls around, Bethesda will shake things up with a metropolis unlike any we've seen across the series' history, but it'll be a long wait before we find out.
