Fallout 4: 10 Outrageous Rumours That Won't Happen

9. A Corner Of Paradise

Following the example set by games like Minecraft and Rust, many Fallout wish list threads contain at least one Wastelander expressing their desire for Bethesda to introduce some manner of base building. Though other Fallout games have permitted players to own property (mainly for storage purposes), this overhauled feature would allow players to construct, design and decorate their own little corner of paradise in the wasteland. Fuelling these rumours is the fact that Bethesda introduced a home-owning element to Skyrim in their Hearthfire DLC. Of course defending a property you have painstakingly created against the miscreants of the Wasteland would have some appeal, we believe this unsubstantiated rumour is unlikely to come to pass. One of the defining aspects of the Fallout series is that in the bleak, radiation-swamped future, the survivors can find no real sanctuary. Humanity has been torn apart, and so by letting you build a delightful little dwelling, Bethesda would be deviating from the fundamental principles of Fallout €“ such a feature was far more suitable in the less austere land of Skyrim.
