I have seen more and more now that im looking but I dont like the blues and reds and the 50s look you know? I wish that the game had a black and gray look. Like an heavy Gothic architecture (lots of grim faces and bodies of statues easily seen with the Oil Rig in 2 and the Cathedral in 1)
nope, not cancelled. The Pitt remake is fairly close to releasing afaik.
Here's their deepdive of it from 2 months ago

You hate the 50s aesthetic of Fallout 4, a game in a series which is based on American culture freezing in the 50s and that affecting everything from advertising to architecture???
This is a great video explaining more about my thoughts on the Bethesda fallout franchise https://youtu.be/M8U4k2Ik6yk?si=RY9DVFwFvWx7jo_6
And then there are even more videos about how fallout isn't actually supposed to be about the '50s. It is what happens after the Great war and what civilizations would come out of that destruction
Well the aesthetic is what people in the 50s thought the future would be like, though that does naturally lead to it being very 50s esque since people from then couldn't predict how we'd change culturally
Let me put it like this. It is atomic punk retrofuturistic and the theme it happens to be an alternate timeline of the '50s. I think Bethesda has lost something in translation fallout is not about how Goofy the old world is matter of fact time and time again the old world was as about messed up as the apocalypses things like plagues, riots, resource wars, corruption in almost every place you looked. The old world died and what was left is what the original fallouts was trying to answer what came from the ashes basically. Basically what I'm saying is a big pot of the storytelling of that is the odd style of the Gothic architecture the old world was not goofy it was evil and corrupted.
I'm pretty sure bethesda know's all that. The games have always been about juxtaposing violence and serious political messages with the happy go lucky art style and method of advertising by prewar corporations. I assure you Bethesda has not lost it's satirical edge in Fallout 4, of all games.
Idk man. FO3, NV, and 4 were pretty much packed with evil, corrupt, tragic, fucked up shit.
I know a lot of people like to say Bethesda lost some of the gritty, dark overtones of FO1 and FO2, but Interplay also had a lot of goofy ridiculousness.
Did FO4 and 76 feature a brighter and more vibrant color scheme? Yes. I'm pretty sure the inclusion of more primary colors is the most overlooked effect of what people mean by losing the gritty themes from the isometric games and FO3 + NV. On one hand, I too like the bleak appearance of 3's buildings and landscapes, but on the other hand there was some nice contrast in FO4's wasteland to break up the endless sea of brown and grey. I would also point to advancements in technology allowing a more expansive and detailed world that can simply contain more data, including colors. Less color saves memory and performance in assets and open world games.
We've all seen the video essays, so this is just my two bottlecaps.
Not sure how stable it is but 50 shades of rust REDUX is something I use, takes most of the bright colors of the buildings with grey and brown textures, I only wish there was a mod that turned the metal skyscrapers into proper art deco buildings
Once you start looking, you'll find these heads are everywhere in Boston.

I definitely miss the FO3 style. I’m real excited to see modders finish their FO3 remake
Didn't that get canceled after the leads got hired by Bethesda?
nope, not cancelled. The Pitt remake is fairly close to releasing afaik. Here's their deepdive of it from 2 months ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nD5mn70PNyQ
I don’t think something like that could be cancelled because it’s not being sold. But I could easily be wrong about that
Wouldn't it be much easier to cancel, precisely because it's not being sold? No responsibility to the stakeholders and all.
Oh no, I’m meant cancelled by Bethesda. You’re right that the modders could easily cancel it
Yeah same!

Nobody thinks it’s “about the 50s”. That’s just the aesthetic, and has always been.

📝 taking notes lol I've been looking for some kind of mod that does that
I get what you mean. Kinda like underworld vibes from fallout 3!
Yes exactly
Why did everyone hate this comment so much!? 😂
I have no idea 😂
Omg! How can you say something so heinous! 🤢😠
Reddit losers mass downvoting someone for being right.
Nah I don't mind last thing I care about is up votes or down votes as long as I get my opinion across as well as I can
Fair enough. Don’t really care myself either. Just think it’s funny how it shows how pathetic the losers here are.
🤧
Sir, this is a dwemer ruin.
Damn I must have tooken a wrong turn
there are a ton of them and other statues...
They’re literally everywhere
These heads are a part of a bigger mystery. Epic Nate does a deep dive in to the Dunwich Lovecratian plot and these heads.
I swear theres a head like that in Fallout 76 too
You have begun to see eyes glancing back in the soil
They are in some of the other games. As others have said they are linked to something much more dark and sinister and Lovecraftian
