We know that Fallout 4 is in development by Bethesda Softworks, as the recently leaked internal casting documents have revealed that the game will be set in Boston. This means that it will be continuing the trend set by Fallout 3, which means it’ll likely be a third/first person style, open world RPG in the vein of The Elder Scrolls but with more power armour and post apocalyptic-shenanigans.

However, what if Bethesda suddenly decided to go back to the old style of gameplay seen in Fallout 1 & 2? What if the developer opted for an isometric perspective, a traditional turn-based/real-time battle system and a 2D art style? It’s more than likely we’d have 3D models rather than 2D sprites but overall, it would be something akin to the old-school games.

It of course won’t happen, since Bethesda saw excellent sales with Fallout 3 and will obviously continue with the same style of gameplay. Nonetheless, what are your thoughts on what the next Fallout could be like? Let us know in the comments below.
