>>43015306>Almost everything that's in there is just ripped off 1:1 from the Fallout games, mostly from 3. That's not true at all. There are some things like bottlecap currency that are 1:1, but there's plenty of interesting twists on things like the pegasus Enclave, the use of mutated diamond dogs to stand in for deathclaws, the explanation for the Unity, and the introduction of megaspells and balefire instead of nukes (which somehow explains ghouls better than Interplay or Bethesda ever did).
The plot and characters of the original FoE are kinda shit, and some of these ideas aren't fleshed out enough, but it's still good enough worldbuilding to prompt a shit ton of sidefics and TTRPGs.
