Yall gonna crucify me like the degenerate I am but... GET THE HELL OUT OF THE U.S.

Et-hnm Literally go anywhere else, I know we have more of the U.S. to cover (geographicly) but I'd like to see how other communities are doing, also even if you leave English as the language CHANGE IT SOME.

They've had the same general dialect since wastelands, I mean yeah we hear different accents but the general verbiage and stuff has always been far too accessible in my opinion. Language changes with situation and culture. I'd imagine having a nuclear apocalypse would cause more variation but alas no such luck.

And make it so different communities refer to the critters differently, why does everyone call deathclaw deathclaw, mole rats, rad-roach.... give us unique variations. Make us afraid of El Demonios Gris. But again I want a build up to it like in the isometric fallouts.

What do yall think is this too much of a pipe dream?

I dunno, I thought the "American-ness" has been a pretty important part of the three games I've played (3, NV, 4).

Not that I'd frankly mind a Fallout-style game or even an actual Fallout set somewhere else. It just seems like satirizing a lot of fairly "American" things is a very large part of what the series is even about, from lore to dialogue to worldbuilding and, I suppose, gameplay.
