Fallout 5 Predictions Thread (with EXPLOSIONS!)

Fallout 5 is going to be an MMO tied to a mobile phone crafting game with stupid gimmicks that reference Fallout like Vault Tec Workshop or Corvega Racing or bobblehead boxing.

Bethesda fans will call it the most hardcore RPG ever made, and youtubers will say "Fallout 5: what the originals should have been"

That one annoying guy at the office who never plays videogames will come up to you playing Corvega Racing on his phone and say "I love Fallout 5, I've never played a game with such deep role playing!" Because thats who Bethesda made Fallout 4 for: the ultra casual gamer who doesn't even like Fallout and thinks the latest summer action movie is the pinnacle of human intellectual and cultural achievement.

It will cost $150 for the full game and yes you will be paying for mods repackaged by Bethesda.

The sad thing about Fallout's future at this point is that all there is to talk about or anticipate for is how awful it's going to be. It's weird, this series, in that there's usually always been some form of fingers-crossed-hopeful light at the end of the tunnel for its future. After Fallout 2 there was Van Buren, after VB there was Fallout 3 (whilst not knowing how badly Bethie was going to fuck it up), after Fallout 3 there was New Vegas (that didn't quite deliver on all fronts inspite of Obsidian), after NV there was Fallout 4 (anticipating if Bethesda was actually going to fix things even to some degree, which they ultimately didn't, quite the contrary), but right now there's nothing to look forward to and nothing to anticipate for but vain fantasies of games that will never happen and how bad Bethesda's next take will be.
Well, there is still the Van Buren trademark Inxile took out, it'd surprise me if that turns out to be anything other than a spiritual successor to Fallout.

Fargo has said that if there would be a chance for them to make a "Fallout" game (for which the chances are next to zero knowing how much Fargo appreciates Bethesda...) it'd be a very different game from the original VB. And even so, seeing how closely Wasteland 2 already tried to emulate the Fallout formula (and cash in on that prospect), I don't know how realistic it would be to expect InXile to make another post apoc "Fallout-like" franchise.

They should just make Wasteland 3.
 
Now grab your plasma rifle and power armor, you shmuck from a vault - oh, wait, no, you're not from a vault, you're the secret son of Maxson, flung out here in this resource poor, still-dead-after-three-hundred-year land that's full of deathclaws, raiders, and slavers, and you have to find out how to woo the oh-so-grand and noble Brotherhood to make you their elder and despose the false one! Yea!
That'll have to wait until you've finished your wacky contraption that flings brahmin up in the air so they'll explode into loot fountains when they hit the ground, and upload the video to YouTube, of course.
 
Careful everyone, Bethesda may be taking notes.
I can see it now...

Somewhere in a boardroom deep in the Bethesda offices:
Emil: Uh.. Godd Howard?
Toddie: Yes, Emil?
Emil: We've run out of ideas about the next Fallout game.
Toddie: Any random thoughts about 5 that I can hype up about so that our drones can gush over it?
Emil: None that I know off.
Pete: What about NMA? Since we don't care about quality, lore consistency or this franchise, let's nick all their ideas and use them for the game.
Toddie: That's brilliant Hiney! I knew I was wise to employ a lying bastard as a PR head and VP!
Emil proceeds to take all the 'suggestions' from this very thread and presents them to Toddie.
Toddie: Excellent. There are so many things I can lie about.
Emil: But the suggestions don't sound good, Goddie. What if they ruin everything?
Toddie: Emil, remember the motto. It just works...

I'm already predicting further dumbing down of the Fallout franchise. Perhaps we will hit the singularity that results in a game far worse than Fallout PoS.

Oh yeah,they will do another shitty Fallout 5 with more gore and an "evolved" speech system.Nope.

They will stop,let's be serious FO4 is the last game made from the entire franchise.If they will do anymore,they will create up a mess.
 
In all seriousness, I think the next Fallout will be an MMO, and maybe XBox exclusive at that. As others have said, Gambryo/Creation whatever they want to call it should have been hauled off to the glue factory already, and they already have ESO's engine at hand, so making it an actual MMO would be a perfect excuse to make the switch. They've all but killed the existing modding community, and the new console "modders" will probably be perfectly happy making nothing but skins.

Besides, they've already done just about everything they can to make it an MMO anyway.

So it will be a repeat of ESO then? They are definitely doing a card game now so maybe Bethesda and Zenimax would like to pull off the reverse Blizzard where they make the shooter and card-game before the MMO.

Fallout 5 will be Fallout 4 with a magic radioactive portal called "Oblivion Gate" that will allow the Sole Survivor to teleport to Skyrim Remastered and become the Dragonborn.
With all the nice Heartfire DLC you can marry and adopt kids, you can send them (kids and spouse) to your settlements to work for free.
Most powerful "Shout": SHAAAUUUNNNN!
 
Fallout 5 is the upcoming version of award winning Fallout game series.
Bethesda has already started the pre-production of the Fallout 5 series.
http://fallout5news.com/
The new game in the series, Fallout 5 is expected to be release around 2020. This we predict after analysing the past Fallout game in the series.
 

I can't help but picturing this. You'll get the idea.
Unless Bethesda actually hires a writing team instead of just one writer, and agrees to call script doctors, familiar with the Fallout's lore to read proof the script and correct it. Hell, even Pratchett hired these guys.

The sad thing is that thing has better writing than Fallout 4. It's actually funny unlike the failed attempts at jokes in Fallout 4 such as Kid in the Fridge, which I suspect was meant to be taken seriously as a serious piece of drama because Bethesda has the worst writers in the entire industry at this point.
 
Yeah ... if Fallout 4 would have been actually meant to be a satire about role playing games in general like if there never was a Fallout 3 and New Vegas with a kick ass engine was Fallout 3, Fallout 4 could have worked extremely well! Like this is what we would have got if Fallout was sold to Bethesda.

That reminds me;

Bulletstorm 2 when?
