Todd Howard confirms that Shady Sands was nuked AFTER the events of Fallout: New Vegas in a new interview. It seems one of the biggest issues people had with the timeline is solved. ign.com/articles/fallo…
@TKsMantis While I’m glad NV fanboys can stop screaming, I still think that it’s a bad plot twist. Like the more I go back to Fallout the more valid the criticism of Bethesda constantly making things look desolate even 219 years after the bombs drop gets to me
@TKsMantis Local man realizes a mistake. Now to solve the others - Mr House motivation - Vault tec rejecting infinate power and money in favour of living in a pod - Overseer of 33 letting in random people - Where did he get a nuke? - How was 32 cleaned up in 24h? etc
@TKsMantis Repost this to confuse someone who won't shut up about a timeline (they do not know how to read them)
@TKsMantis The funny thing is Vegas' story *fits* this. We know in vegas that the NCR is in decline, the NCR tell us this themselves. The amount of people who seemingly don't know the lore as well as they thought they did but harp on all day about "retcon this retcon that" was unreal.
@TKsMantis This is "somehow palpatine returned" levels of poor writing.
@TKsMantis Glad the timeline is intact but bummed out the NCR isn't a thing anymore.
@TKsMantis I was playing Fallout yesterday and went to Shady Sands. Something doesn't add up here
@TKsMantis I still can’t believe anyone needed this explained lol
@TKsMantis I hope we also get an explanation of why Shady Sands is seemingly in the Boneyard tho. I guess the NCR could’ve simply relocated it, as LA would be is a better place to have your capital city than in the desert
@TKsMantis I still object to the plot development. Destroying the NCR is petty.
