And isn't a lot of the more subtle social game play in the first two, pretty much attributed to the technical limitations of how the actual games functioned back then?
How do you mean?

All I'm saying is... I think people expecting each game to be a linear progression, starting from the first... is just unrealistic. I can understand why diehard fans would want that to happen, so that they can move forward and see the Fallout world rebuild. But I just don't think they're going to do that. Most people are going to play each game based on the merits of that individual game. And that's how they're going to design it and market it.
Fallout runs on a very detailed timeline. the game starts 80 years after the war; the second game starts 80 years after that, and even Fallout 3 starts 32(?) years after that. There are characters that were alive through the history of 1, 2 & 3. The originally planned Fallout 3 would have been the same.

IMO part of the problem is simply that as the concept progresses into their future, it loses it's charm and atmosphere ~but if it doesn't go forward, it loses it's credibility in all forms. So the only choice I see is to have another war or to end the series. IMO the new war doesn't make sense because they would have to be near their previous position as super-powers to be able to launch such a war ~again, but they are all living in as scavengers and farmers (of nothing); also... such a war again, would probably leave no survivors, as the last one left so few, and so few habitable locations.

what needs to happen(and I think will happen), is for the future games to not go far into the future, maybe just a few year, or even be simultaneous to the events of the previous Fallout, but be in a different part of the country, so that we develop the story of what is happening around all of the US before the timeline really starts to move forward significantly. It is at a good place right now, and If it makes another 80 year, or even 30 year leap, it will start to be too civilized again, and only once the majority of the rest of the US is covered, should the years move forward significantly.
