No, nobody does because it's not canon. The fans have spoken

I'm sorry but t his chart is missing something.
"Fallout Resurrection" under fan-made spin-offs, of course.
 
Im going to have open mind here cause the only Bethesda Fallout I played was 3 and that game didn't go into any capitalism is bad stuff it mostly just repeated 1 and 2 and New Vegas doesnt have it. So does 4 and 76 have alot of this shit?

4 doesn't really go into any in-depth economic discussion, it just repeats the same "War is Bad" sensible opinon that the first 3 games and New Vegas did, cant speak for 76, the whole thing really is mentally ill redditors trying to apply their own allegories as head-canon. if anything it condemns both the Americans and Chinese nuking each other, nothing about what economic system either one has being right or wrong.

The thing with "capitalism bad" is that you COULD say it was something Fallout had but it was subtle and leaned more akin to "unchecked corporate and governmental powers are bad under any sort of ideology, capitalism and communism alike". You get countless examples of the government and companies fucking the little guy over, sometimes even with doing so together but the criticism does lean towards a more universal and less political direction, making one see the pre-war world was its own brand of awfulness. We never saw Communist China but any info we get and its implied a lot that it was somehow even worse than America and you were kind of screwed no matter what, even when you show total loyalty towards them (there is a mission in Point Lookout that has you completing the mission of a chinese spy that eventually concludes with the final orders from back home being "lol, your usefulness ran out. Die".).

In any case, Fallout never criticized Capitalism specifically, mostly human nature, which ties back to its "War never changes" theme. Now, of course, all that I told you requires care for the source material, understanding of the real world and a respect for the audience's intelligence and the show's writers clearly had none of that. The writing of the show is shockingly unsubtle that it makes Fallout 76 tell it to tone it down.

Fallout's America is more a fascist (actual fascist not the l*ftiod meaning of the word)/corporatist state than a capitalist one. Then again coping low IQ l*ftiods say that fascism is "capitalism in decay" anyway.
 
Communists coping and seething.

Notice that at no point has Tim Cain actually defended capitalism. He doesn't even say that the games don't critique it (they do in many places), all he said was that it was a critique of human nature. That is the whole point of the famous quote.

But the communist cannot tolerate this. All media must push THE MESSAGE and all media must work towards the marxist revolution to bring about utopia. Not being a critique of capitalism then to them is the same as worshiping it.
 
Even a drunken man knows the theme of Fallout and can better articulate it than these commie pinkos. Randomly in my feed, was tempted to post it in the Synthetic Man thread but it fits here better.

It's amazing how easily they expose themselves as the scum they are.

That has to be a unique rebar club right? Because there is no way they want that to be the default weapon.

the problem is that its the only unique for the rebar club lol, might go good with the lady super mutant, but she already has the verti assault blade tho.
I'd personally expect something more brutal, considering how rustic concrete and rebar are, something like wrapping the top in chainsaw teeth or something. No I dont mean dark and gritty either.
 
The only Fallout property that commentates on Capitalism is fucking Amazon's TV show, which is a whole heap of ironic that I just can't help but laugh at. Bethesda may have killed the IP but Amazon definitely shit on the corpse.

Why else you think that communist china is barely mentioned and that they retconned the ones who shot the bombs not being China anymore but Vault Tec as the icon of capitalism? All to serve a plan thats somehow vague and convoluted that Im starting to wonder if its not intentionally stupid to further drill that capitalists are dumb. At this point its difficult to tell if the stupidity is intentional or if the characters are only as smart as its writers.

Lol.

Why do they act like just because capitalism is criticized that other methods of government and ideology also arent? Communist China is implied to be its own brand of Hellhole to the point you see the pre-war world is absolutely screwed between both super powers. Fallout's theme was that humanity's very nature was the issue and that will never change and thus "War never changes"

Commies struggle against chance that their system of government sucks as or even more than capitalism at its worst.

Maybe we should be glad there is no trans flag on it anywhere.

Sometimes I wonder if these mods are taking so long because of the natural challenges of translating a game so big with a team so small and for free or if there are a bunch of internal conflicts (that no doubt includes trannies because every fucking time there is at least one somewhere)

I like the revisionism of “W-Well it actually became about capitalism when Bethesda got a hold of the IP” even though people have been saying the exact opposite is the case for a while now

The only excuse I ever found for commie China not being worse is "how can we know it wasn't, we don't have enough lore on how China operated" or some shit. I just say "look at real life" and they'll whip out the "this isn't reality bro, by the way let me compare the Fallout universe to real life to suit my arguments real quick."
 
My pitch for my dream fallout game crpg in the style of the old fallout games.

6 people wake up in a dilapidated building in the middle of a vast empty desert that looks lt was just recently nuked . The 5 people are connected through their lost memories and a chip in their brain that is mainipulating their actions.

The 5 charecters

A No nonsense devoted brotherhood of steel paladin who is secretly the child of an enclave general that was adopted as a baby when his father was killed by the brotherhood of steel.

A Runaway legionaire with ptsd from his time in the legion. Stealing some lore from the old world blues hoi4 mod he is from the tribe of diana which was a technologicaly advanced utopian society.

A Ghoulifed wasteland hired gun/courier that is heavily implied to be the main protagonist from new vegas.

A hyper inteligent super mutant who fought for the master but left after seeing his cruelity. However his mental condition is degrading fast and he can potentially revert to a savage supermutant.

A vault dweller who was sent out to explore the outside world by her vault.

Finally the main protagonist who is a custom charecter. You can select to give her a multiude of pasts that will effect gameplay but these are all optional. For example you could be a loyal solider of the legion or a mercenary from the east coast.

Should someone tell them that a russian ported over all NV weapons in like 2017? That's what I have been using ever since, and I am tempted to add that mod to my current playthru of London to spice things up.

Also, imagine actually taking redditors seriously. Funnily enough, I do see similar arguments made on /fog/ so I guess that just confirms they're a bunch of trannies and redditors(as if anyone needed proof)
