This week in the comments
This week the community turns amateur detective, picking apart every clue to guess Fallout 5's setting while doubling down on its distrust of Bethesda and Emil Pagliarulo. The mood stays playful but skeptical, with zero official info to chew on.
San Francisco leads, Boston vetoed
About 28% of this week's comments guess at a setting: San Francisco leads thanks to hints from the show and Fallout 4, while many reject another trip to Boston, already covered in 2015.
Todd Howard, still in the hot seat
Nearly 8% of comments target Todd Howard or Bethesda directly, blamed for mismanagement since Starfield. Nothing new, but the tone stays just as sour this week.
Emil Pagliarulo, the recurring nightmare
Just 2% of comments, but the message is clear: keeping Emil off the writing team remains a non-negotiable demand for part of the community.
A video accused of speculating on nothing
Two fresh comments this week call out a video seen as sensationalist, offering no solid evidence about the next game — a new complaint aimed squarely at this week's content.
Top reactions and controversies
The endless wait
Dominant takeSince the announcement, the community has joked darkly about aging out before Fallout 5 arrives — kids growing up, retirement looming, even the apocalypse beating the release date.
Bethesda has lost the benefit of the doubt
Dominant takeStarfield keeps coming up as exhibit A: the community increasingly doubts Bethesda and Todd Howard can deliver, even with extra time.
Which city for Fallout 5?
ControversySan Francisco is the favorite pick for some fans, while others push for something fresh (Texas, New Orleans, Canada) and reject any return to Boston.
The shadow of New Vegas and moral choices
Dominant takeNew Vegas nostalgia fuels a constant demand: more choices, karma and real consequences, far from Fallout 4's radiant quests.
The Obsidian fantasy
Dominant takeMany dream of handing the license to Obsidian, the studio behind New Vegas, with real development time this time — a wish repeated since the announcement.
Emil Pagliarulo: scapegoat or real problem?
ControversyThe overwhelming majority want him gone, blaming him for the weak writing since Fallout 4 and Starfield; a small minority thinks the criticism is overblown.
