Bethesda Press Conference E3 2018 Fallout 76 Online, Starfield & Elder Scrolls VI Announcement

I just don't know how Fallout online will work Lore wise. If you have too many players creating their own lore the single-player game will not be able to reference events from it. A Fallout online game should be built in a pocket universe detached from the main story. The way I would have written it is to link it to an event having either to do with Zeta Aliens or have it something to do with an experimental Vault Tech project. Both could be written to have the Vault inhabitants go through a dimensional gateway into an alternate earth timeline right before the bombs hit. That way you can reference Vault 76 in the main storyline by just having a destroyed vault with a weird device in it that no one can understand its purpose. The terminals can all have entries about the device hinting at what it does and just leave it at that. Then you have two fallout universes to play with. One a Single Player Story driven game that builds on the lore and creates a long overarching narrative and the other would be a real-time story that begins as soon as the bombs drop but takes you into an earth where anything can happen and the lore can be rewritten to fit any need. For instance, the timeline can be altered so that when people exist the gate they are in a timeline where the bombs had dropped a century ago, or maybe different factions survived so you don't just have the brotherhood of steel. Maybe the Institute was more advanced in their operations and wasn't destroyed. Basically, it would allow the players to shape the landscape and the story rather than relying on bethesta to create it. Just my opinion.

Also, I think they need to make more fallout games and release them with pieces of power armor each time so you can collect and build a full suit of power armor.

Please tell me you are getting and it will be on! We will have the sickest settlements in the wasteland. There was a NEW Todd Howard interview today and he said there will be private server options.

New Vegas was off the wall with a bunch of lore too, but people still love that. I think this game will feel the same way. As far as the Aliens go, Starfield is rumored to link all of the Bethesda Universes.
