Fallout 4 and on really sanitized the series.
The only 'dark' thing they are willing to explore these days is just gore. Which in America is nothing.

Fallout 4 removed all human slavery in the base game, removed all prostitutes, had no gambling, even the darkest thing vocally mentioned - Cait's backstory - has her abusive parents waiting until she's 18 to sell her into slavery for some unknown reason.

Fucking milquetoast faggotry, and worst of all, you know it's only gonna get worse with each new Bethesda entry. I haven't played Starfield but I'm gonna go ahead and assume that there is no prostitution or slavery either in the entire game?

If you didn't enjoy the first few hours of it you're not gonna enjoy the rest of it either. 3 is kinda garbo.
>>
>>3877808
3 is the best in the series
>>
>>3877244
It looks like shit no doubt compared to a Fallout 3 setting in terms of the depressing and fight or die type of mood 3 presented but it makes actually sense that buildings look like that considering the trends of the period Fallout takes heavy inspiration in and also its the commonwealth. What actually stands out here is Fallout 3 since its uniquely set in an active full scale urban warzone, surrounded by one of the worst backwater shitholes possible, without any government but a few enclaves of warlords and tribes which scuttle trough a radiatetd wasteland that is overall a really, really bad place even for Fallout standards. Like governments, administration and basic society and infrastructure exists everyhwere in the franchise in abundance sometimes with trade, farming, recreational activities and people who travel for fun and all that. Meanwhile in Fallout 3 leaving your reinforced compound without mercenaries is borderline suicidal and the handful of people living there have almost no contact to the outside world with even the brotherhood cutting communications. The capital wasteland is compareable to the worst parts of rural liberia or somalia in the universe and the one person from outside will outright inform you about his disdain for the shithole you exist in.
So its no wonder that in that barbaric shithole things like open slavery are just a normal thing but it also makes a lot of sense that in the civilized parts that is not case.

What you actually describe is more Fallout Sonora than Fallout desu.

I know it's crazy to believe a game that won game of the year might be the best in the series. Very hot take.

>>
>>3882578
Boston is pastel colored because it was inspired by trends of the time. See, here is Boston in the 1950's. Notice all the pastel blues and greens that dot the city's skyline. Some retards on here critique Bethesda for being historically accurate.

F4 always looked like plastic to me and I could never figure out why. It's not just the textures (and if it is I don't know what about them look plasticky), there's also the fact that everything has round edges and bright colours and maybe something else I cannot put my finger on

Anon, the game is very literally calling the actions shown here as evil. This is not an endorsement of child slavery, it is the opposite.

Fallout 4 turned a bleak story about survival into a kids story about le funny nooked 60s with robots and chargeable lasers and those whacky ghouls! Mr Sandman, bring me a dream lalala nuka colaaaa!

Ugh

Yeah its because of the soft textures and hardly any model is pointy anymore.
Skyrim is the same, wet plastic looking.

most zoomoids dont actually play old games, they just watch video essays about old games
and id wager theres few video essays about paradise falls, due to monetization issues. so a bunch of them prolly just dont know

>>3885956
tbf FO3 does a very poor job of actually punishing you for being evil. and you rly can be cartoonishly evil in this game one might argue "senselessly evil", even, as theres often not even any real advantage/reward to being that evil.
but the lawbringers are way easier to deal with than talon co, tenpenny tower is way classier than megaton, and paradise falls is the best town. also: the mesmertron, for the memes.
about the only thing youre "losing out" on is not having an infinite supply of talon co mercs to btfo so you can patch your combat armor up

additionally, very few characters actually react to you being unabashedly evil. they might SAY something about you being a psycho, but it doesnt actually prohibit you from doing much other than any megaton quests you lose out on if you blow up megaton ASAP. iirc your dad basically finger wags and says "ur vary naughty" for you nuking an entire town of innocents for shits and giggles

>>
>>3877244
Fallout 3 had this great atmosphere mostly built on 30s-40s art deco.
Fallout 4 and on really played up the mid 50s look of things.
This was a big mistake.

It turned something kinda gothic and horror-esque into something more comedic and lame.
>>
first time in my life I've ever heard someone describe Fallout 3 as "Gothic"
>>
>>3896552
Nuking Megaton is stupid evil. It's a cozy town with two bars and plenty of amenities, your house is really nice for being a corrugated shack, Moira and Nova are best girls and Silver is right there if you're feeling really frisky...I could go on. Tenpenny Tower is a moldy shithole full of pretentious assholes.
>>
>>3897955
I saw one anon saying that "Fallout is a joke setting". I dismissed it at first, but then I realized - now, it IS.

Man that sucks.
>>
>>3898681
The saddest part is that they are correct - Bethesda made sure that the vision of original Fallout is dead. They wanted it dead for so long, and now the TV series did it.
>>
>>3898685
It was dead a long time ago, when Interplay decided that low effort slop like Tactics was worth developing just after rushing Fallout 2 out of the door.
The TV series is merely waking up those intoxicated by the shiny fallout-themed looter shooters like 3 and 4.
>>
>>3898688
Tactics was great because it was aimed at fans of the first two games, and it was silly enough that no one took it seriously. No one back in the day gave a shit about the “canon”
3/NV were aimed at a new generation of fans, most of whom had not played the original games, and everyone took it seriously because “uhh it says fallout on the box so it’s Canon”. You still see people arguing about NV “canon” to this day. Who the fuck still argues about the calculator or EMP shotgun shells or the ma deuce DU rounds or BOS airships and shit? No one.
>>
>>3898693
I haven't mentioned canon, it's not relevant to the discussion.
It's about trying to squeeze an IP of money so fast that they ended up flooding the market with low effort games (F2, Tactics, BoS) of which only one managed to accidentally end up good. Interplay killed itself with stupid shit like that, and burned down a good IP with a potential future because of short sighted greed.
Without Tactics and BoS we might've actually seen the canceled Fallout 3.
>>
>>3898738
>concept art
I'm pretty sure Bethesda got a trove of design documents when they bought the franchise, and some stuff that was intended for a later west coast Fallout got folded into FO3. The Republic of Dave, for example. It doesn't really fit with the Capitol Wasteland, but it wouldn't be a bit out of place in FO2. The vampires as well, considering the whole lost boys angle. RobCo and Nuka-Cola? Mmmmmmaybe. Tldr they did loot some NCR property to display in postap Bethesda HQ.

I never had a problem with the FO4 aesthetic. It being a shit game is a different matter.

In fact, it always kinda bothered me just how fucked up and filthy everything outside the vaults is in FO3. Like, nobody has ever thought to clean up any of the heaps of shit left laying around from a literal 200 years ago.

true but im thinking more from like a RP PoV
where would you rather be? a literal rusty corrugated box up on stilts in a town built around a nuke? or the luxury tower with fully armed security?

in-game, yea, its just stupid to nuke as youre just btfoing a good central hub and vendors
>>
>>3902773
fallout 3 seems like it had the most confusing/absent design direction
its explicitly stated, several times, that the super mutants are capturing ppl, but not to eat. you can see this and free some NPCs who were captured too. you go to vault 87 and find evidence of recent FEV experimentation. it all SEEMS to be leading up to a reveal that the super mutants are so populous because theyre reviving the masters plans.
but then, go to ANY super mutant location or dungeon and the whole place will be spammed full of gore bags, full of human remains. so is that just the leftovers? or are they just decorating?

the raiders have a similar issue. every raider den looks like it was designed by an edgy 12yo who just learned how to edit lvls in the GECK. theyre so senselessly full of mutilated torture victims, that even the psycho cannibal explanation stops making sense. why would they waste all their food like that? its not like humans are a limitless resource in the wastes
>>
>>3902773
>>3906899
That's bc FO3 is just one big 'member-berry for Todd and Emil to make a soft reboot to snowball their ultimate goal, which was the show.
They didn't introduce a single new concept the entire game. FNV fkd all that over, short man mad, so they tried again with FO4 and locked it down with hype and merch to appeal to normies tourists first and last to double down into beating fans into submission to make them accept their shit vision and to keep building for the show.
>>
>>3902827
Bethesda fucked up the chronologics its simple as that. Everything looks like it was left one year ago. Yet the game plays 200 years after that happened and AFTER the events of Fallout 1 which already show that people cleaned the fuck up and build their own shit already a hundred years before the events of 3.

It also makes absolutely no sense that there is even one intact pre war building left. A well crafted clay/concrete shingle roof lasts ~50years if nothing damages it before it will get leaky inevitably. If that happens its less than a decade before a building is reduce to a few walls or pillars in a mound of rubble. Not even talking about anything in there that isnt made of ceramics or skeletons. A human body wont just stay sitting upright with a cup of coffee and a fag in hand sitting on an office chair for 200 years. If the body isnt buried in special conditions you would be lucky to find remnants of a sawdust like substance somewhere in the corner. Every piece of metal from weapons to tools would be reduced to a rusty lump of metal. Also its desert everywhere. There are desert towns no one cares about which vanish in a matter of 50 years under sand and debris. Also
>>3903908
In 200 years someone would have probably had the idea to remove the random pile of rubble that just sits there in the room and it makes zero sense that people are able to maintain complex machinery like double rotor helicopters but fail to have windows or factories that produce basic items. Instead they have to use 200 year old toy cars and tin cans scavenged from the same place for 200 years to improvise things. How many tonnes of toy cars where stored in office buildings that this pillar resource of post nuclear economy can still be found in abdundance after two centuries? What for?

Fallout 3 is what the post apocalypse looks like after 200 years if you ask an 8th grader who wants cool shit. The setting isnt thought trough even remotely.
>>
>>3906950
they'd already built a bunch of their post-apocalyptic worldspace for 3 before it became fallout because getting the fallout license wasn't a done deal. Obviously it was supposed to have been a relatively short time since the EOTW.

then they made the high handed decision to exclusively move the timeline forward in all their properties and never do pre- or inter-quels because it was something one guy at zenimax thought was important

and they didn't let this conflict bother them because it's bethesda and they don't give a shit.

>>3906989
That's the point of Fallout and what Todd barely grasped before his manlet ego totally pozzed the IP. Megaton, just like Tenpenny are both made to be insufferable to your sensibilities in different ways; imo, that's why you can genocide them both
People who don't deserve to survive in a world for whatever reason, must ultimately be exterminated at the most logical conclusion of correcting their existence to satisfy your vision for how the world should be, even if that means total war.
