Fallout- what does the show mean for future games?
I personally think that the decision to not have any endings be explicitly canon was a good choice to protect the stories and choices made in the previous game installments.
As for what the fallout show may mean for the next installment in the franchise "Fallout 5", i think that the story will definitely have more of a focus on the enclave as the show is headed in that direction. I think we may see the house mind control devices again. As they are a key component in how the common enclave seems to be working. Id love to see this enter the canon of fallout cause it poses a very good moral dilemma for dialogue and quest options.
I think we'll see more of FEV and controlled strains like the institute were working on but maybe more refined from the enclave.
The BOS are very likely to make an appearance in this game but id actually love to explore siding with one chapter of the brotherhood over another I think it would make for great feeling in the game being able to have different benefits and safe locations for each. I think the show did this very well
Anyone else have elements of the show you'd like to see in fallout 5??
