  • When the bombs fell it only ended a chapter in human history and began another. One filled with radioactive wastelands and Roman-inspired slavers. This is the world of Fallout. And in honor of Fallout 4, I'm exploring the alternate world of the game franchise.

    One thing that really changed the outcome of the Fallout timeline was that transistors were only inveted about a century later, so science and technology evolved a lot more slowly which is why the 50s culture, technology and aesthetic really stayed that long.

    One big thing not mentioned is that miniaturization was rather slow in this universe. The transistor was not invented until much much later.

      Obviously environment wise it had to be different otherwise why even buy New Vegas, just replay 3.
      Vegas and the Mojave are much different than the Capital Wasteland. Lorewise it would make sense the Chinese targeted the U.S. capital with more vigor than a pleasure city like Vegas and with House having made preparations it's incredible he managed to save any extent of the city. But what makes New Vegas so incredible and replayable by comparison is that choice is in every facet of the game.
      If I wanted I could end House right after leaving Good springs or kill of the BOS. I can't take out Sarah Lyons in the very start of meeting her. Nor is siding with Enclave.
      Style wise, I think Megaton is one of the best settlements since Vault City, and really works well in it's environment. I really like Rivet City and the dilapidated landscape in the Capital.

This includes gasoline, diesel, etc. Recently we've been developing types of fuel out food and waste to shorten consumption of fossil fuels and lower pollution, these fuels are known as ethanol, E-85, Flexfuel, bio-diesel, etc. The prediction of "running out of oil" is partially true and fake. It's true we might run out of oil reserves cause no new oil, but oil unlike fuel can be recycled and reused. Now running out of fossil fuels is a different story.

      Semiconductors were known (they were known since the early 19th century) but transistors were developed much later than in our timeline (probably as late as 2067) with most computers still being mainframes built from vacuum tubes (Fallout 4 mentions transistors in logs from the early 2020s but this would not explain why most computers created 50 years later are still vacuum tubes-based and not similar to our current computers). This in fact means that the Fallout timeline has diverged from ours as soon as the 1920s.

    • @MegaZeta
      @MegaZeta 5 років тому +26

      Transistors were invented much later in the history of Fallout's Earth, I believe, not semiconductors. Still, that means-assuming generously that "transistors" doesn't mean any device demonstrating the principle, but rather the point-contact transistor that allowed for the device's integration into most electronics in "our" history-that Fallout's history diverges from our own in 1947, at the very latest, not at some point in the '50s or '60s.

      It was too little, too late. Majority of the country still ran on fossil fuel. The Fallout Bible states that world traffic stopped in 2060 as oil levels dropped, and despite the unveiling of the first fusion cell in 2066 and the construction of fusion vehicles, the integration into the US infrastructure was extremely slow. By the time the bombs fell, few areas in the US ran on fusion power.

      New Vegas was way better. Not to mention it was made by some of the people (Obsidian, founded by a few of the members of the original Black Isle Studios) who made the first two Fallouts, which are also better than number 3.

      Mad Max Rockatansky My opinion matters to me. Not reviewers' ones. As really big fan of Fallout who played all games since Fallout from 1997 (the series started its life in the same year I was born), I am claiming there is no doubt about New Vegas over 3. U cant change my mind.
