Fallout 5 Predictions Thread (with EXPLOSIONS!)

You know guys, if you dislike AccountNameM just ignore him and move along, trolls thrive on response and frustration.
Anyway FO5 (assuming Obsidian will either never make another Fallout or at least never make a numbered installment) will be a re-release of Fallout: PoS, it will officially overwrite all established lore and, its special edition will come with the decapitated head of Chris Avellone.

Correction, fuckheads (such as myself, I hate the term "troll") thrive on stubbornness.

EDIT: Sorry if I pissed you off Ragemage, everything I said was just to annoy you (Pretty obvious), but I do feel a bit bad for doing this.

He's just poking fun, guys. Your buttons are all really easy to push (as are mines, really, as evidenced by this very post). If you are all really that annoyed by it, maybe take a step back and look at how seriously you're defending the fate of a video game series? Besides, don't worry @AccountNameM, if you get out of line the banhammer here is swift and merciless, along the lines of a super sledge. ;)

Okay, so being needlessly defensive about what has happened with the series is a bit much. Unless you grew up with Fallout, or unless it has been a big part of your life, in which case, still not justified!

How come everyone gets to be all "bitter" as a very pointless joke that excuses any insults anyone make, then a friendly troll strolls in and it's all hostile territory? Does anyone get to call you all "out-of-touch nostalgia-fueled hateful fucks" and just attribute it to them being "bitter"? Haha, all a joke, relax pal? Well, no, of course they don't. No, their arguments get ignored and they get called a "idiotic Bethfan", even if they've never praised Bethesda or even spoke favourably of them just once.

Real classy with the double standards people, keep it up. :clap:

(Remember I'm allowed to express my opinions)
 
Well it's a forum; when people come in and, derail discussion with arguments that they obviously don't believe in then they should be answered with hostility; but yeah don't take any offense from me calling you a troll @AccountNameM, I'm just stating facts.

See third paragraph of my previous post for my actual point. Obviously it's not alright for him to troll, but it's alright for anyone to insult newcomers and use being "bitter" as an excuse. Hey, maybe he's just being bitter, that's why he's doing this! No? Not okay? Now that's about how dumb it sounds when anyone here does it.

Like I said, if he gets out of line, he gets banned, there's never been (or at least, should never be) an exception as far as I know. I haven't seen him go out of line yet. Hell, he hasn't even insulted anyone yet, which means he is still a step above NMA's majority.

I'm not excusing him, I would like to tell others they can't excuse themselves.
 
It will take place on the East Coast, of course.
-Power Armor will be turned into massive titanfall robots.
-Almost all of the perks will be combat related
-There's another Dogmeat. Idunno, this time he can be a purebred husky or something.
-All "Good" NPCs are immortal.
-Players will be able to cast spells (Cuz why not? There are already legendaries in the game)
-No interactive dialogue.
-Supermutants will be hamfisted into the game once again.

Unless Obsidian develops it.

The first is probably a very slight exaggeration and the fifth will probably be termed "energy mutations" or something, but this actually seems like an exact prediction.
 
So kinda like Bioshock I guess?
Bioshock had ingame explanations as to why people had magical powers, Fallout 5's would probably be somewhat contrived; implants would work though, it doesn't take a stretch of the imagination to see an implant giving an enemy an electric shock or, an injection of poison.

It's not about being bitter, from what I saw Ragemage was arguing that oversimplification fucked over the Fallout franchise and, AccountNameM (who from now on I'll just call M, because that's a long username) was plugging his ears and saying it wasn't.
If you come to a site with a fairly well known reputation for disliking what's been done with the Fallout franchise and, proceed to plug your ears and yell about how it's "Just your opinion!" well that's basically the same as coming here and saying "u Guyz donnt lik bethezda cuz nostalga! lol" with more respectful language, obviously. It's childish shitposting and deserves to be refuted. Now if he came here and attempted to start a dialogue then that'd be entirely different. If people reacted to that with bitterness then they'd be dicks, but he didn't he came here with the intention of beginning a constructive discussion, he came here to waste time.
Again I don't dislike you M, please don't take offence. This is more me complaining about people who clog up forums, it doesn't pertain to you specifically.
TL;DR: Bitterness is okay if it's aimed towards trolls, not cool to be bitter with constructive posters though.

That's because it is. Fallout 4 killed the Fallout franchise. It is dead and buried.

Later, Tim Cain of Interplay asked Todd Howard for the body of Fallout. Now Tim Cain was the creator of Fallout, but he feared the Bethestards would tarnish the body further. With Todd Howard's permission, he came and took the body away. He was accompanied by Brian Fargo, the man whose earlier game had inspired Fallout at night. taking Fallout’s body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen. This was in accordance with Interplay burial customs. At the place where Fallout was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. And since the tomb was nearby, they laid Fallout there, with the help of Chris Avellone and J.E. Sawyer. - J.E. Sawyer 20:4
The Bethesda employees yelled "Crucify him!, Crucify him!"

Pontious Todd Howard said to the people "But this man has done nothing wrong, why should I crucify him?"

Now the Bethtards were yelling "Crucify him!, Crucify him!"

And so Pontious Howard sentenced him to die.

-Avellone passages 17:1-4 of the Fallout Bible.
So, a website dedicated to Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout 3 and Fallout 4 can't have positive discussion of the latest release?
To be honest, I agree with you here. I disagree strongly that Fallout 4 did anything good for the series, but I think you are being treated rather unfairly for expressing an opinion.
Special and skills affecting dialogue were just quest shortcuts, so there isn't any loss of information. Also, it isn't entirely gone, as charisma affects dialogue.
Not so much "Quest Shortcuts", as different ways of completing quests. The idea was that if you had a set of skills, you could use them to complete the quests, so there are Intelligence and Charisma alternatives to combat quests. And yes, it is cutting out on something because it means you can only really play Combat characters.
Do you consider less backstory through speech, and more through terminals, as "dumbing down"?
No, but the point of Fallout isn't about finding out the backstory, it's about Roleplaying. If you are limited to 4 dialogue options at a time, and don't see all of what you are going to say, obviously you cant define your character any where near as well.

My first post "Why all the pessimism for a new Fallout?" was a legitimate question, and it just spiralled into me just "trolling" Ragemage because of habit/random reason. The reason I ignore the content of this thread and the general reputation of this site is because I want to discuss Fallout, not why it sucks.

Also, I thought this thread wasn't just for joking about Bethesda being shit, but also for the actual future of Fallout.

Again, I apologise to Ragemage and Spacemunkey for annoying them, but all my replies were a combination of seriousness and trolling.
 
I thought the parenthesis "WITH EXPLOSIONS" would show that it was a joke thread, again all opinions are welcome here, provided they're legitimate.

I posted a couple of minutes before Ragemage, thus reinvigorating some interest in this thread. Plus, two negative posts about Fallout 5 probably spurred AccountWhatever to start his spiel. Thus, I like to think I started this bitch-contest.

It kind of hard to tell considering the sites reputation.
