Nexus Mods Crashed Because Everyone Was Modding Fallout

A Fallout 3 player recently noted that in the Japanese version of the game, the Cannibal perk is renamed «Mystic Power» and features a distinct description. This discovery has sparked discussions within theFallout 3 community, resulting in various explanations being put forward.

Grease star Susan Buckner has sadly passed away at the age of 72.

Manor Lords launched for PC players late last month, and it only took about a week for modders to add Shrek as a playable character.

Fallout fever is at an all-time high thanks to the new Amazon show, so much so that it's bleeding into other games.

An official description of Fallout 3 on Steam has caused one fan to question whether the events of the game are actually happening within its world or if they're all part of a simulation within a simulation. While the events of Fallout 3 contain some pretty mind-bending content, this theory makes those events seem even more meta.

Amazon Prime’s Fallout TV show has supercharged excitement in the Fallout IP, leading to a significant surge in player counts across a variety of Fallout titles on Steam, but also for Fallout London, a fan-created mod for Fallout 4 that may as well be an entirely new entry in the series due to the breadth and scope of the project.

Whether exploring the irradiated monuments of Washington D.C. in Fallout 3 or gambling away your last couple of Caps on The Strip in Fallout: New Vegas, the series' North American setting is an essential piece of the puzzle. And while players have previously been given tantalising glimpses of how the rest of Bethesda's bleak world might be faring, studio head Todd Howard says the plan is to keep the series set in the US.

In a recent interview, Fallout director Todd Howard said that Bethesda plans to «predominately keep» the franchise in the United States and explained his reasoning. Although Howard left the door open for non-US Fallout settings in the future, it seems unlikely given the franchise's established theme.

For years Fallout fans have wondered if a video game in the franchise will ever leave the United States for another country. According to Fallout lore, the nuclear war of 2077 upon which the franchise is based was not localized to the U.S., but a global event. And so, the idea of traipsing astound post-apocalyptic London or even Canada has long-been mooted by fans.

Fallout has been the watercooler TV show this month, an impressive feat for a video game adaptation. Although Bethesda doesn’t have any new Fallout games to release alongside it, the Amazon Prime series has reinvigorated interest in Fallout, with all its titles seeing notable player count increases. For now, we’ll have to be content with a Fallout 4 current-gen upgrade, but I’ll admit that my mind is drifting to thinking about Fallout 5.

The popular modding platform, Nexus Mods, has faced significant strain on its servers recently due to a surge in demand driven by the popularity of Fallout 4 andFallout: New Vegas. This surge in activity is attributed to the success of the Fallout series on Amazon Prime, along with discounted game sales on platforms like Steam, GOG, and the upcoming launch of Fallout 4 on Epic Games.

Fallout London's developer, Team FOLON, was supposed to be celebrating the long-anticipated launch of its fan game today. However, with Fallout 4's current-gen update just days away from going live, that isn't possible, and the game has been pushed back until fixes are made.
