Looks cool! Been following this for a while, excited to see it get a full trailer! New Vegas Engine too, so much better roleplaying framework and mods.

Hahaha, I've always said the Fallout series needs a full lore wipe and reboot.

I mean, it wouldn't be too hard to just ignore the East coast and pretend that 3 and 4 never happened

I still have to dig up my design Bible for Fallout: Great Midwest

Lots of good ideas in there, the Sons of Silence, new and terrifying mutants, one of the companions being a Cyborg Taikonaut

I think it would actually be really good for the series as a whole

Fallout Tactics is my favourite for the lore. BoS are way less PoS than in other games, intelligent deathclaws FTW, Crypt 0 unsubtly explains all the capitalism bad lore straight in the face, you can shoot a lot of racists. Best looking power armour. And that weird moment when paladins guarding the bunker take Psycho for fun, which also inspired me to taking entire game-worth stock of buffout at the same time, but nothing happened.

I think you would be happy with Great Midwest

Took some inspiration from Tactics, in that I wanted vehicles (no tanks, but a big rig would serve as your mobile camp) and the villain would be the Vault-Tec executive board, kidnapping people to harvest their organs so they could live forever

Though, the Executive Vault (or Vault X) would be built under Lake Michigan and you could just dump the lake into it to kill everyone if you were feeling inclined
