Ah yes the world has been nuked 200 years ago and people still live in dirty shacks with trash everywhere.
One of my favorite fan theories is that the world has largely recovered. The US is a bit unhinged though and is basically engaging in a no rules larp. Everyone else stays at a distance because if Americans are killing each other than global recovery can actually continue
It is the united states, people already be living like that before the nukes
I like to imagine that the rest of the world in the Fallout universe has long since recovered and is flourishing.
I just wish the lore didn’t say that the US dragged Canada down with them :(
Edit: someone beat me to posting this theory lol
This is my head Canon with just about all dystopian fiction. Just take Hunger games. The US put up a wall against everyone else and began doing the Hunger games while the rest of the world goes ‘eh… just let them figure it out, don’t disturbed them’
Why not just go through Sloan? Seems so much easier.
(I know why you don’t go through Sloan. Feel the sarcasm, people.)
Fallout Vegas. Load up the game and go walk through Sloan right at the start.
Oh, this is a video game reference? Tbh I thought it was just a knock on the walkability and bad urban planning of American cities.
… What happens?
You get mauled to death by a pack of the most dangerous things in the wasteland.
Now do it when its 95° outside!
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes me wish for nuclear winter
