Dunno, I could see them moving back to Southern California where Fallout 1/2 were at. Los Angeles is pretty far from New Vegas so it'd be similar area but not the same.

They'll also pick their own canon for the game. You can do your own ending in NV, but it may or may not be canon to the series as a whole. If they say the Legion was destroyed but the NCR was heavily weakened then that's what sets up the next game.

The problem is that unlike previous games, the endings are so wildly divergent. Though Fallout 1 and 3 both had definite "bad" endings, the good endings could obviously be considered true. Vegas, on the other hand, has four different routes, with numerous smaller differences. All of the factions you can choose to support (including yourself) have their own standards of jackassery and no one is perfect or outrageously evil (except maybe Caesar, even if certain smaller factions actually have it better under the Legion), so I don't think J.E. Sawyer wants any particular ending to be considered the "right" one.

Maybe. Guess we'll have to wait and see what Obsidian does. They've done good by the gamers so far.

Sounds fishy at best. It would be great if it were true, but I'm not placing much weight on an anonymous Redditor's word.

How To Negate The Ending Choice in New Vegas, To Allow For Mojave Desert Shenanigans:

Step 1) Skip ahead a few years.
Step 2) The NCR has Vegas.
Step 3) People talk about when NCR swarmed in and took Vegas, but a set date is never given. Written so that it's implied that it happened about the same time as, or not too long after, the ending of NV. Even if another choice was picked, easy to assume that NCR pulled out, then came back in overwhelming force in a gamble that turned out for the better.
Step 4) Caeser's Legion is completely gone because Caeser died. Hear talk of how Caeser died of a recurring tumor, but is only a rumor and a sketchy one at that.
Step 5) House is dead due to an NCR assassination. That's all that's ever said. Could have been the player, or NCR after the swarm.
Step 6) Repeat ambiguity for all other factions, saying they had a splinter group in a different area who eventually rejoined the main group and made it stronger.

and badbing badaboom you gotsa mojave that still works

Just an idea guys, but they could do the whole import save thing from Mass Effect.

Eh? Eh? Eh? No I didn't think so either...

In all honesty it wouldn't be any harder than what they did with New Vegas after D.C. The two had NOTHING to do with each other storywise, there was no conflict, and they were both very good games. It's plausible with little to no effort on anyone's part honestly. It would be cool if they did...

THIS SHOVEL SHOULD NOT BE AS EFFECTIVE AS IT IS.

Boston sounds...alright? I don't really know how different it will be from D.C.

I remember J.E. Sawyer saying he doesn't want Fallout to go back to the Mojave because he would be undermining the player's choice and it would be kind of lame. He also said that (megaspoilers; Yes Man ending) the whole thing about Yes Man installing a "more aggressive" personality at the end was so that no other person could kill the Courier, and walk in and take over New Vegas. It seems like an odd change to make to the endgame if they aren't going to bring it up in another game, but hey. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

As for the other nations thing, the timey-lineys say that the European Commonwealths split into warring nation-states, and, without an organized government and very little resources left, it is unlikely that they built vaults successfully, or even that the place was still up and running before the Great War started. The only "clue" there is the fact that Tenpenny is from the Commonwealths, and he says a few vague lines about it being chaotic or something (though Bethesda didn't perfectly adhere to the canon always so whatever). I think the idea is Europe was a crazy hellhole before the Great War, and became basically dead after the Great War, though some survived by escaping towards a country with vaults, America.


I'd like to point out that America supposedly split into 13 commonwealths as well, and Dr. Zimmer from Fallout 3 also says he's from 'the Commonwealth,' which is what survived of Massachusetts.

Getting some background for the character I may or may not create for the LP I may or may not decide to do. What do you guys think of the name Sheila "Clubs" Cartwright?

New Vegas is one of the more attractive games to Let's Play; there's lots to do, good characters, a lot of different choices, unarmed, silly bugs, etc.
But we've had a fucking lot of them die off after a really small amount of updates so I don't know, man. It sounds interesting but don't do it if you can't commit to it.

I know, I'm super-annoyed every time a Vegas LP starts and dies after a couple pages. I'll have something mapped out before I even try. I'll also have to figure out the most efficient way to take and keep a metric fuckton of screenshots.
