They don't want to make it outside of American because reasons. I don't think their current team has the skillset to justify that idea. If it was Tim Cain I would believe he had a good reason. But current fallout writers aren't on par, so why not make it more interesting.
I think the good reason is that it's a satire of American society during the cold war.
No, that's what Bethesda decided to focus on. Play 1+2 and you'll see that's just their weird obsession.
Let's be honest, a fallout outside USA would render the weapons and ammos as rare as Elon Musk's well thought out tweets
It would have to be more melee based, maybe in a northern area of Europe with a heavy scandanavian focus.
Maybe the radiation gave them magical abilities. Have a sorry redneck excuse for a magical college up in the north east of the map in the remnants of a ruined city.
No bad, Fallout shouldnt have fucken magic. Its pulp Sci-fi sure but at most it should have NPC psychers nothing more. We dont need to fucken have special magic abilities in everything.
(I was making a joke by describing Skyrim. The college is Winterhold.)
Writer*
They have one writer.
Fallout: London will eventually come out, hopefully. It's a mod, but still.
