Your choices will be a) pet the puppy or b) cuddle the puppy. This isn’t the kind of choice-and-consequence Fallout that will let you play the villain. You’re going to be a hero who make the ruined world a better place, like it or not. The new civilization was a slideshow and a block of text immediately preceding the credits.īut Fallout 4 is a game where you’re going to rebuild society as you play. An oh-by-the-way, like those “where are they now?” title cards at the end of movies based on true stories. And, yes, depending on choices you made at the end of the game, maybe you did. You might think you’ve restored civilizations in previous Fallouts.
But this Fallout is unique among Fallouts for how it’s about restoring civilization to the wasteland.
Sure, those things might be in here (Fallout 4 directly repeats some of Fallout 3’s plot points). It is not just a Fallout about a wayward family member, a water purifier, a GECK, a dam, or your favorite faction. Fallout 4 is a Fallout about restoring civilization.
