Why do this? If they leave the US. They don't have to hear about how they broke the lore.

Bethesda should have made a new Fallout timeline. When they got the rights.

They should have gone New Zealand. It would be one of the few places likely devoid of direct nuclear strikes yet still affected. Could have done a whole set of lore where a US Carrier group shows up and demands right to port and the conflict from there.

There was a really good novel, On the Beach which did a very good job of almost that exact plot.

Oh nice. Will check it out, thank you.

Edit - holy shit, read the book and the 2000 Showtime movie synopsis. That is some bleak stuff. Going to read it to my kids for bedtime.
