The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games are made by a Ukrainian company and set in the Eastern Bloc, but it's about mercenaries raiding an irradiated zone, so it doesn't have the same post-apocalyptic world vibe. I still enjoyed the games, and maybe the developer could do a Fallout-style game next.
Since S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 has taken ten years at this point (but is coming out this year), I wouldn't count on the developer releasing a Fallout clone set in the Eastern Bloc anytime soon.
if they'd made that now I bet it would literally just be racist depictions of russians and end up not so subtly supporting the state department's policy on Russia. ironic fate for the fallout series and cursed af so it is probably going to happen.
Eastern Bloc Fallout: Instead of being a survival shooter, the game is a city builder. Turns out that the USSR and China survived underground and are rebuilding their societies as massive national projects instead of having a bunch of warring regional factions.
Even hundreds of years and a nuclear bomb later Americans still suck shit smh

“This game is boring everything is fine!”
It has potential to be really really really cool in whatever era you set it, but there is 99,999999% chance they end up making some enormous garbage.
Oh god yeah libs should stick to what they know. Anything they try to do involving stuff outside of the imperial core is almost always pure cringe

Stalker is actually in my backlog. I’m churning through a bunch of crpgs but I definitely intend to check it and the metro series out soon
I forgot about Metro! Those are great, especially the Last Light remaster, if you're into stealth. Metro: Exodus is in my backlog.
Last Light making the Communists the bad guys is :LIB:
That goes without saying and is the default in 99% of media, sadly. Maybe that will improve, playing Disco Elysium was a breath of fresh air.
Yeah exodus was on the top for the day on 1337x.to the other day and reminded me I need to play those
What if all of the dumb super mutants are capitalists and the end bossfight is Liberty Prime
Tovarish, we must liberate our American tovarishi from capitalist mutant. Climb atop mecha lenin and crush capitalist menace!
uhhhh actually it would be extremely dope if the end of the game is a mech battle between a salvaged Liberty Prime and a robo- The Motherland Calls
Fuck yea this is the better idea
An official Fallout game showing whatever happened in the eastern block would be the biggest monkey paw curl ever, no thanks.
