bethesda cant into aesthetics. or good writing. this becomes painfully apparent when you see a faithful recreation of f1/f2 art style in FPV. they just wanted to do generic mad max post apoc and it happened that fallout IP was up for sale at the time. because of the hilariously awful management had run the company, Interplay, into effective bankruptcy

the setting was so stupid. easily could have just put in on east coast in todds amusement park where everything goes as long as it adheres to the rule of cool

they filmed vast majority of it everywhere but the west coast ffs. such a stupid way of shitting up fallouts legacy

its got its roots planted in the style. Everything from derelict vehicles to the "high tech" structures like bunker computers, steel walls, vent covers etc are straight out of something like flash gordon. Architecture seems to be mainly focused on gothic art deco. which is period appropriate

F1 and F2 in general have a very comic book style to it. Everything from sprites to artwork to UI design
