Why aleins are relevant in the fallout universe : Fallout Series Discussion

The truth is Canon is whatever the owners of the franchises rights say it is. And so long as it doesn't svck ~~(Fallout : Brotherhood of Steel)~~ there is no problem. Mothership Zeta is not only canon but to me is stable canon, the aliens werent a central part of the story of Fallout 3. And also after the DLC had little impact even in who knew they exsisted.

well thankfully whether we can agree that MZ is, isn't or might be canon we can all probably agree it doesn't need to be disowned like [censored game title] which did svck by all accounts.

Aliens are not relevant, they were a 1950's pop culture reference in the other games. Easter Eggs/Jokes. Beth took that joke and ruined it forever with Mothership Zeta. Most people that like Mothership Zeta have never played the other fallout games at least not before fallout 3. They wiki/google the other games and see the Easter eggs of FO1,FO2 and say "they are relevant!" People need to understand the point of easter eggs.

Sorry for going on a bit of a rant here but aliens ruin fallout.

This.

Fallout is a Post Apocalypse game not science fiction outer space game. I won't play MZ for the simple fact that I don't acknowledge it in the Fallout universe.
