“Nothing is known about Indiana”

Said every person outside of Indiana ever

[overthinkingisbad]

"Austin seems to have survived the war but now is infested with super mutants and mutated plant life" ah so no real change then

[brianwalsh]

>Indiana
>nothing is known about Indiana

… I don’t know what I was expecting.

"Phoenix still Exists"

That hellhole would look and feel the same after a nuke as it does now, I'm hardly surprised.

[halfasoap]

You ain't from Michigan if you never built an 8, 000 ton steel robot.

[albatrossbaron]

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.

[TheTDude]

"Nothing is known about Indiana." Damn that fits too well.

[TihetrisWeathersby]

At least my state of Mississippi was mentioned, Alabama wasn't mentioned at all

[haydenshinkle]

“St. Louis, sadly also lays in ruin. plagued by super mutants, raider gangs, and the Beast Lords”

… that sounds exactly like St. Louis in my universe

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 The music selection would be insane, the vibes and historical references ample, and the environment perfect for a variety of mutated beasts.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.

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.

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.

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

[quinndrakon]

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.

[damenpine]

Arkansas
Arkansans: WOO
there is no mention of Arkansas
Arkansans: BOO

[jonathanself]

Alabama has so many military and space related industries so I'm pretty certain it would make an interesting place for a Fallout mod.

[MackAurelius-rzmf]

You missed the biggest part of Kentucky fallout lore! President John Henry Eden in Fallout 3.

[grigger]

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! ❤😊

[SoCon.]

Wait.. you're telling me Vault Tech built a vault in the side of Mount Saint Helens, WHICH IS AN ACTIVE VOLCANO!!

[SCHISM_HEAD]

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.
