We’ve never really thought about it since it was leaked that Fallout 4 exists and will be taking place in – or at least featuring – the city of Boston since it was the first confirmation we’d ever received of the game. Nonetheless, now that our excitement has finally died down, what problems could arise from setting the game in Boston?
For one, it lacks a lot of the exotic locales that defined games like Fallout: New Vegas. There is the idea that it will involve some version of The Minutemen trying to take on a more powerful authority, leading to a wacky rendition of the American Revolution. This being Fallout though, it will be purely satirical and parody the obsession with patriotism in a post-nuclear world.
Of course, Boston could also just turn out to be a really boring place altogether. Nonetheless, what are concerns about Fallout 4 being set in Boston? Let us know below.
