Elder scrolls or sit on my pole.

Here’s the interesting portion: “Some fans have also theorized that this might be some sort of remaster of either Fallout 4 or Fallout 3, but from what we’ve heard, this is a new game, one that takes the series in a brand new direction. We’re expecting to see more tomorrow.”

Fallout RTS? Meehhh

Not saying it’s what I want. But I’d buy it if it was done well. Halo Wars and Battle for Middle Earth were fun enough, and I think Fallout has similar potential.

I would much, much rather get an actual Fallout game though.

I don’t think they’d be advertising TES with Vault Boy.  You can keep your pole.

I wonder if Kotaku has some kind of inside knowledge. That guy keeps talking like he does. 

[The Good Doctor]

If that brand new direction is south, like New Orleans south, they can count me in. Lol

Still doubt it’s made by Bethesda, though. At least if it’s actually a full game. There’s no way they’d do Fallout 5 before TES 6.

Not many video game journalists break news, but he breaks a lot more news so I assume he just does more reporting from his sources and has more sources than other journalists and that’s what he’s basing his stuff off of. Though I do know Kotaku is blacklisted by Bethesda for publishing the F4 leaks way back. Doubt that has anything to do with this though.

I haven’t seen any videos or whatever, at work.

Halo Wars was ok but honestly it was a very bare bones RTS. I can live without another RTS that survives off of the franchise it borrows.

Wouldn;t that just be a much bigger Point Lookout

Fallout: Not the Coast

Best part of Halo Wars wasn't the gameplay, it was how damn polished it was, and how faithful it was being to the source material. The Devs clearly knew, loved, and respected the Halo universe.

Which was nice for presentation but did nothing to make the game long lasting. It wasn’t something you could play all day.

Ah gotcha. Lol It’s just a stream of the Vault Boy sitting in front of a computer with that old “Please Stand By” screen at the start of several Fallout games. It’s been running since this morning and every now and then a Bethesda employee pops his or her head in with Fallout merchandise in their hands.

I agree. But I think I’d still enjoy a Fallout one if it was done right. Doubt it would be, though. And I’d rather the efforts go towards something else anyway.

Sadly, Obsidian has already said that they’re not involved with whatever this is. A reporter from Kotaku keeps insinuating that it’s a full game, though. Not sure how he knows.

Whilst alot of Kotaku's editorials are worst then dog shit, they have a really good record when it comes to leaking shit. The leaked Dark Souls remastered a few days before it was announced. They leaked an early version of Fallout 4's script. They leaked God of War 4's original concept art a few months before it was announced at E3. If their saying something, I would believe the,

Nah man, New Orleans is waaaaay more colorful and diverse than Point Lookout. You’re thinking of the bayou around it. Folks from Obsidian even said that it would be one of their firsts choices for a location of another game.

That said, I’d love a much bigger Point Lookout too.

I want more of the Southwest, but only if Sawyer or some of the original devs are involved. I don’t trust Bethesda to do it justice.

No wonder they get blacklisted. I’d hate people like them if I worked for a game dev company.

What about a Fallout horror game? That would be cool.

I honestly hope it's a Battle Royale title. The ensuring salt could feed a third world country for years
