The Complete FALLOUT Timeline Explained!

Рет қаралды 2,397,209

Күн бұрын

The Fallout franchise has a long and complex history and timeline that has been expanding its post-apocalyptic future ever since the original game’s release back in 1997. With 4 mainline games, a handful of spin-offs, and now a TV show that’s set within the same universe, the series has a big, meaty timeline to wrap your head around. And with the Amazon Prime TV show expanding on the franchise’s lore, and extending the timeline further into the future, there is no better time to dive back into the lore of Fallout than now.
This is the Fallout timeline fully explained.
From the Pre-War origins of RobCo. and Vault-Tec all the way through to Lucy MacLean’s journey to find her father via the stories set in the Capital Wasteland and the Commonwealth, this video breaks down the long and complex timeline of the Fallout franchise.

You forgot to mention a big history point. The integrated microchip was NEVER invented in the Fallout universe. So all their technology is analog and nuclear based. This is the main reason why their technology is stuck in a 50s futurism look.

Iv never really thought of the Pip Boy being the Fallout Universe's Iphone, but it pretty much is. Only ever playing Fallout 3 way back in 2008 I phones were still quite new, so I didn't quite make the connection back then. Fallout's universe really its the culture that halted, while everything else accelerated further then beyond even our own time line. We might have affordable 70 inch flatscreen tvs, but they had nuclear powered CRT's that could run for 1000 years. The people of the fallout universe (before the great war) would look at our own technology and think we were backward.

@frosthammer917 21 күн бұрын

The timeline describes that the decline of the NCR happened in 2177 and then (separated by a dash) the town of Shady Sands was nuked sometime after. Shady Sands existed and is mentioned by members of the NCR during the events of Fallout New Vegas in 2281 so it had to have been blown up after the Second Battle of the Hoover Dam and after the conclusion of the DLC for FO:NV.

This is great! Love to see the older games get a shout out, though I think it would had been better if you did a series explaining each game in the timeline as the clip notes for each are kinda haphazard and not entirely right with a lot of neat important lore glossed over. Also I'm not sure if 76 should be considered canon since it really breaks the lore established down the timeline, from the brotherhood, to super mutants, the tech and what have you (I'm aware they have some hokey justifications but it still really doesn't make sense in the scheme of things) Would be nice if you also did a look into the Fallout Bible/ original Fallout 3 (Van Buren) since quite a number of ideas did seep into the Bethesda iterations. *also a tiny editing gripe since it's a bit misleading to those who didn't play it, when mentioning killing the head of the Enclave at the end of Fallout 2 part, that's not the president but Special Agent Frank Horrigan the baddest Gen1 Super Mutant!

Something also worth mentioning is the creation of the BoS as the ancestor of the group of soldiers tasked with overseeing Mariposa (the place where the FEV was researched on) before the great war. Additionally the cursedness of the newly mutated wildlife is also thanks to said FEV ending up in the atmosphere shortly after the apocalypse, causing the virus to mutate due to radiation and essentially turning the usual mutation caused by nuclear fallout up by 100000

We don't know his age for sure though. We can speculate but we're not told it explicitly. We do, however, find out from Lucy that her mom died in 2277. Considering two dates point to the same event happening in 2277, I think it's more likely this is the date the writers intended. I'm not exactly bothered by the mistake itself but it is an error.

@elvisibra 21 күн бұрын

@@coleabrams4534 Lucy was also about 5,6yo (before nuke) in her Shady Sands Flashback. Either way if we put Lucy and Maximus at about 20-21yo, then Shady got nuked 4-5 yrs after 2277. 🤷 We will probably learn more, then we will know.

The New Vegas DLC actually take place concurrently to the story of New Vegas, all of them reference the coming of Ulysses, but when Ulysses arrives, he prepares you for the "Final Battle of Hoover Dam." So that actually is where the New Vegas story ends. With a well journeyed Courier leading the charge on the future he sculpted.

@9:32 NPCs were in the game at launch. They were mostly robots and a travelling Super Mutant Merchant called Graham. It was meant to show how all humans and non-feral ghouls were wiped out by the scorched plague. Wastelanders added human and non-feral ghoul NPCs, as they were coming to Appalachia from other parts of the east coast chasing rumors of a treasure hidden in the mountains of Appalachia.

One small additional thing about the chronology of Vault 101: Expeditions outside of the vault started in 2241 at the latest - the same time Fallout 2 takes place. Megaton is already a place and the Giant Ants that blight the raiders of the nearby school 36 years later are also documented, this is all in the Overseer's Terminal as you leave Vault 101 for the first time, though it's probably still there if you return later.

Just to clarify (also mentioned by Todd Howard), Shady Sands wasn't destroyed by a bomb in 2277. The "fall" of Shady Sands happened then, which could've been a number of things like an uprising or some kind of societal downfall that we don't know about yet. The bomb actually fell some time shortly after the events of New Vegas (after 2281).

When running through the lower tunnels of New Vegas, the crazy guy whose name I forget mentions a swarm of creatures living below Nevada. There’s journal entries/tapes and such that imply the insect mutants are real, so I wonder that after the second battle of Hoover dam, does the swarm finally emerge and destroy Vegas after the Courier’s ending. It would clean slate the story for season two for sure.
