The main factions are:
a local soviet council with soc-demmy tendencies reflecting the Soviets' canonically cooled-off relations with the US
Remnants of the Chinese government attempting to reunify an alienated eastern bloc before NATO can get back on its feet
A Makhno-esque black army that demands autonomy for the local people
The main driver of the conflict is control over a robotics factory that can be salvaged and converted into creating power armor
Later on you find out that the Enclave is stoking the fight by releasing capitalist super mutants, and the final climactic battle is set against a backdrop of a kaiju fight between Liberty Prime and a giant mechanized The Motherland Calls

How about instead it's Liberty Prime versus like ten salvaged T-34s, which wreck it from outside its effective range because despite being extremely old and outdated tanks they still have actual tank guns. That would drive home the point that Liberty Prime was actually overengineered rubbish that served no actual battlefield role and was basically just a terror weapon to unleash on civilians or unsupported infantry, and which couldn't stand up to any sort of combined arms tactics.
I was thinking the capitalist super mutants would be the really dumb brutish ones, there could be smart ones too
No i think there should be smart capitalist super mutants who are manipulating the dumb ones.
Lmao like a Murray rothbard of super mutants
It's good but the game needs a reason to fight Liberty Prime so
Yeah so you have smart super mutants manipulating the dumb ones all working for the enclave then as part of fighting them you have to beat liberty prime
Yeah the way I pictured it was that the issue itself would be materialist - and nothing heavy handed like "yeah we genocided X but they deserved it also we're actually good tho"
I would also want a Left Unity ending
They all should
You can if you want but I'm too lazy to actually do anything about this, I just thought it would be a cool idea. Anyone is free to do whatever with it as long as it's good and there are a lot of explosions during the end fight
Here me out you should be able to side with the enclave, but they should get you to do a bunch of messed up shit
This sounds incredibly similar to the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series minus the external political factions.
:sankara-salute: to whichever member of the brave mod team saw fit to ban this person
I like the idea of a post apocalyptic Eastern Bloc game in a similar style, but the whole setting of Fallout is so much from the perspective of a cartoonishly American America. I think it would be really awkward to work any closer perspective of the eastern bloc into it. I'm sure someone could do it well but I think it's a tall order.
Odd, given how the game seems somewhat left-leaning.
And the inevitable Balkan example ends up better than the base game...
Mongolia might be a more logical setting if you want the Chinese and Russians to be there
final climactic battle is set against a backdrop of a kaiju fight
I’m sold :panting:
