Fallout London: The Factions of London 

Thank you! Can’t wait for it to come out!

I really hope that this works out for you guys. This project is simply amazing.

you are doing god and Bethesda's work

question is this set in london US? fake london? or in London europe?(true london). Since we have not any fallout experience outside america. And it would feel strange to have one.

@@TheSegert i would guess scince the queen is there its true london

personally hoping that while the queen is there, there is a living member of the house of windsor who can replace her. Only because well for one she is feral but two she isn't alive really. So a living monarch, probably constitutionally there as a Camelot victory position to rule as King/Queen but most of the real power in the hands of the people like real life

They should have made Andrew a feral ghoul locked away

@@gdfgaming9378 oh totally. I was thinking that it would probably be the prince of wales actually making the decisions (tho offecially the queen would still be in charge) and it could be a super interesting story if there was someone else alive, possibly a decendant from someone else in the family who is trying to take over the crown because having your ruler be a feral beast is sort of insane.

I thought she was supposed to be Margaret Thatcher for a second.

​@@jonathanwatson4484Badass but unrealistic, lol.

Tbh I wouldn't say unrealistic Brits have a real history of that stuff. Like British officers not ducking in WW1 which from all evidence seems true ​@@Otto500206

@@Otto500206about as realistic as the concept of ghouls to begin with, don’t you think?

“Bloody hell? Is that a nuke? I’ve had shits more deadly than that, im not moving from my bloody post, those commies won’t move me regardless of what happens”

Since Desmond on Point Lookout i always expected someone to take the Ghouls for what they really are, people with more than 100 year of experience, who have seen more than anyone and can tell more than anyone. People like that would certainly use it to their advantage

@@Fulcrox That's not how it works. Ghouls can't _chose_ to go feral or stay sentient. Some manage to stay sentient (and even those may later turn into nonsentient hungry monsters), most ghouls don't manage. We've seen in various games that ironically the radioactivity that can heal them can also speed up their brain tissue's degeneration. Yes, there were even a few Glowing Ones that were sentient, but they were the rare exception.

"Yet here it seems like it's completely 180." This is actually straight out of Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, or rather the Call of Cthulhu RPG which combined the Mythos writings by Lovecraft and other authors. Fitting, since Fallout 4 is full of allusion's to Lovecraft's Mythos stories set in New England. Lovecraft's Ghouls are all sentient and are living beings (not undead) who feed on corpses, but who seem to be extremely long-lived, living at least for centuries. Cthulhu Mythos Ghouls were even closer related to humans than the Deep Ones: Humans who associated with Ghouls a lot (or practiced cannibalism) could turn into Ghouls; the story _Pickman's Models_ revealed that occasionally, Ghouls switched their rare offspring at birth for human babies, leaving the Ghoul baby to grow up looking like a human and believing themselves to be human (until later in life), while the human baby was raised by the Ghouls as one of their own and gradually transformed. Lovecraft's Ghouls know ways to travel between Earth's Dreamlands and Earth. They had tamed the flying Nightgaunts to serve as steeds and technically knew how to get to other places beyond Earth in the Dreamlands, even though they rarely ventured out into the Void to those other planets. Ghouls in North America and the Dreamlands lived a tribal low-tech almost Stone Age level lifestyle. (The Dreamer Randolph Carter and the transformed Ghoul Richard Upton Pickman in _The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath_ had to explain to a Dreamland Ghoul tribe what spears were used for, which the tribe then used with great enthusiasm on Moon Beasts. They also quickly learned how to steer a sailing ship.) Those on Earth usually dwelt in cemetaries, digging through the ground, and also in abandoned ancient cellars and in subway tunnels. In contrast, the Cthulhu Mythos Ghouls in Europe and Great Britain lived disguised among humans and used their technology (at least in stories set in the 1920s). But those European Ghouls were written by contemporaries of Lovecraft (as he and writers from his circle of friends and pen pals often collaborated on stories, writing stories in each other's universes) and epigones like August Derleth and later generations of writers who did their own spin on the Cthulhu Mythos.

Just like real life

@@TF2CrunchyFrog that and modern fans seem to forget that being a ghoul are literally fates worst then death. There's the deteriorating brain, barley working organs, and the other mutations that can be obtained as well. They are minds in rotting corpses, waiting to eventually go feral or die

"On second thought, let's not go to Camelot. 'Tis a silly place".

Fallout 1 or 2 did a random encounter with a Monty within brotherhood thing.

👏👏 well done Sir Spam 😂

never forget the frontier

@@USSLIBERTYREMEMBERER uh what..?

@@USSLIBERTYREMEMBERER amen

@@USSLIBERTYREMEMBERER yea, cautiously optimistic

@@USSLIBERTYREMEMBERER we will never forget

It seems like a faction that is on the fence, protecting both the corrupt elite, and the common folk, and they just need that one push to fall in either direction

Their leader seems like a funny reference to Sir Douglas Haig, who, despite being a total moron, miraculously didn't manage to fuck up the victory for the UK during WWI. Like the faction name suggests, they're not in charge of the situation they're in.

Remind me of the Minutemen. Just ahrd working farmers willing to protect their friends,families and Neighbours for they lack in equipment they deal in duty.

hehe funny hats

Same here. I'd hope we as the player have the option to join the Tommies, pit them against the Gentry and hopefully bring both the 5th Column and Camelot into the fold in an alliance.

FEV isn't in London so there wont be super mutants

@Austin Ryan how do you know there isn’t any FEV there?

@@cosmiccowboy9358 it's stated on the mod page.

@@lelanternoscope3691 they put on the mod page there will be no super mutants lol

@@unsaidchester7949 Mosley did tell people to, "Guard that flame Brother Blackshirt, for it will one day be the spark that will set the world alight."

It is insane to assume any of these mods will come out in our lifetime. Harhar.

It's insane to think this mod is anything other than shameful.

@@josh6153 true, i absolutely despise Bri’ ish “people”

@@omegaexists This mod seems like it has a better chance at releasing than F4NV, Beyond Skyrim, Skywind, etc.. at least lol

@@josh6153 why

I was going to say, because that sounded very bad.

@@joedredd1168 Yes, I think a lot of people would have found it in very poor taste.

Its a game stop thinking its real life... who cares if its a ghoul queen.... idc if its my mother ingame i just wanna play it and enjoy.

@@jurgenbuntinx1 Using real life characters inspiration. That would have an impact on many people.

They should have kept it in there. Which normal person really cares about the royal family.

The Institute, but British Freemasons*

I'm getting 1984 vibes from Angel

Tbh I don't like angel completely from what I've seen, they're too cheesy & over the top (goofy accents & glowing green objects/outfits), they should either be a full on 1984 type CIA/KGB inspired version of post-war MI6 remnants whos goals are to confuse, lie & influence their way into control & peace using you as the master pawn, in which their quests are more of a conspiracy rabbithole than what the institute turned out to be! or... dingy & realistic but still powerful experimenters and scientists (no super sci-fi institute/enclave resources, more like BOS in terms of knowledge/power but way smaller scale) who don't care for outside politics & just want to see results either for profit, a larger end goal, or just for the sake of experimenting.

5th column: facists

Gentry: British Enclave Tommies: Minutemen/NCR grunts Camelot: Inverse Legion 5th Column: N@zi punks who can feck off ANGEL: Those who run the Village from the Prisoner

I am absolutely hyped for this: the vast majority of big fan mods turn out awesome. Enderal, Falskaar, Autumn Leaves…all of these were amazing, but people forget about them and only focus on Frontier.

I anticipate this and Project Vegas.

After the frontier I feel this so much

@@killgriffinnow I played Enderal and it was fantastic.

I mean hey if I can fill ghoulified versions of the royal family (even though half are already dying or dead rip bozo 💀💀) then I’ll gladly reinstall f4

3" slipjoints only.

@@reecechapman-spencer3179 Zombie killer knives, machetes and kitchen knives

And possibly references to Shaun Of The Dead or any of the Cornetto Trilogy

On second thought, let's not go to Camelot. 'Tis a silly place.

Perhaps some Alan Moore references?

Playing this mod + the Fallout Who mod is going to be so funny and totally on brand

No one wants stupid briish jokes, they arent funny

Here here

Funnily enough I'd say one set in Indochina would be good too! Perhaps throw in some actual friggen magic in somehow... like a 'ghoulified' Eastern style dragon.

I think a fallout game set in China would be cool, it’d be interesting to see the other side of the resource wars, although I doubt Bethesda would do so as to not kick the hornets nest that is modern Chinese politics.

Nah. Keep it in America. You’re just gonna tank what fallout is

Bethesda will never do that, their business model is to keep it simple, casual and cheap.

@@llab3903 I wouldnt mind spin off games outside of America but mainline games should stay in the USA

Power armor shouldn't be a thing in this baring maybe a 1 off. The first suits were made by the USA during the war with china after eroupe had already colapsed. American suits and maybe some early stage Chinese prototype should be all that exists. If power armor shows up it would lore wise have to be an american suit that somehow got across the ocean or maybe some incomplete prototype british design that never saw deployment

@@vonfaustien3957 I see what you mean, still as you said their may have been an American ship with a power armour that might have been sent to salvage resources, attack or assist as through our history we have had quite close relations. I think if they only have between 1-3 power armours late game it wouldn’t be bad.

@@Nick-zp3ub Spies exists, I am sure british...ehm... "borrowed" some designs, it makes total sense that their would be at least couple of them .

@@vonfaustien3957 It's a mod. They don't have to follow lore.

@@theobell2002 they don't but they should keep it plausible to the setting

theres no such thing as the "royal army"

@@manicmangomango8118 British Army, forgive me… considering the RAF, RMC, and RN all have Royal as a prefix.

@@nicaln5104 np, theres just a rich and important history behind it, whilst all servicemen no matter rank in the british armed forces swear loyaltt to the crown, the British army itself unlike the Royal Navy and the Royal Airforce is technically not a 'royal' force however every regiment, unit and corps that now makes up the British army are all royal units, so the british army technically not being a 'Royal' force itself harkens back to the days of the English new model army which (the british srmy was founded from) which was a famously republican force, when it was disbanded individual regiments were raised by individual people, some swearing loyalty to the crown for example the coldstream guards, and some not, over time as the british army was standardised the only regiments that remained were those swearing loyalty to the crown. On a side note, hate to be nickpicky but the Corps of Royal Marines is abbreviated to RMC its just 'RM' and it really isnt s big enough force to be really identified as an armed service on par with the likes of the RN as it is a small force which is part of the RN unlike how the USMC whilst technically part of the USN has its own standing next to the USN or USAF due to its sheer size

@@manicmangomango8118 there should be.

You can't join them, but it seems you can ally with them, perhaps you can influence the Gentry to change their goals, or the Tommies to abandon the Gentry and truly fight for the good of London

Or even something similar to that strange artifact that was put on that one guys head in FO4

Right! It's like England went with the EM-2 in fallouts alternate history.

Finally no more L85A2

The official description was “The Yanks said the .280 round was too weak for anyone,,we told them to shove it up their Arse.”

I spotted that too - it's a nice little addition!

@@Themanwiththeplan1899 A2 is a good rifle idk why it gets so much hate, its not like the a1

@@manicmangomango8118 afaik (from squaddie mates, idk how reliable they are i guess but they did use the thing in combat) it *became* a semi-decent rifle but was plagued with issues when first adopted & isn't great in sandy conditions either, making it pretty bad given where it's mostly seen use.

I'm hoping so too. I find it reminiscent of the Prisoner above all else. Specifically, the forces behind the Village. The kind of authoritarian rule designed to exploit the "KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON" virtue of English culture.

For some reason it gives me a mix of Dr. Who and 1984

I hope Angel is the Institute but wrote better. The Institute had SO MUCH going for it, but then Bethesda crumbled it with shoddy writing. Angel could fill the roles of the piss-poor writing, with more fleshed out motives and their reasons for their actions are fully understood.

I definitely see the resemblance between both Mr House and the institute

Tbh I don't like angel completely from what I've seen if our hunch that they are just institute 2.0 [ dimly lit UK edition] is correct, they're too cheesy & over the top (goofy accents & glowing green objects/outfits), they should either be a full on 1984 type CIA/KGB inspired version of post-war MI6 remnants whos goals are to confuse, lie & influence their way into control & peace using you as the master pawn, in which their quests are more of a conspiracy rabbithole than what the institute turned out to be! or... dingy & realistic but still powerful experimenters and scientists (no super sci-fi institute/enclave resources, more like BOS in terms of knowledge/power but way smaller scale) who don't care for outside politics & just want to see results either for profit, a larger end goal (thats properly explained/No institute "you couldn't understand" stuff), or just for the sake of experimenting (as in they are completely detached from reality above & see it as a game)

Same here brother. That would be quite nice.

They’d probably be the best hope for London

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I wanna go full Tommie but help Camelot.

I hope they can...cause I'm joining Camelot and no one can stop me from swinging a sword while wearing power armor

i doubt it, seeing as though they're very against the gentry and the tommies are just the gentrys bitches from what we know

Except in 150 years names can change.

Comments that aged like milk lmao

@@pingus9934 I claim no responsibility

I know right, The concept art is beautiful and amazing! To think it didn't come from a studio is super awesome. Its cool to see how creative and talented everyday people are. I really really really LOVE the syndicate and their suits, awesome peaky blinder vibes. I got to join them just for the suit!

In an interview the Team said that Fallout London aims to be full Fallout Game experience. I hope they deliver

Hopefully DLC sized. A small team can make a big game, but they often end up sparse with lots of empty spaces

DLC probably, I dont think they have enough man power and money to fund a full game

Can add too that the map is roughly the size of Far Harbour with rural areas included.

will the Tommies be playable ?

She’s far, far better then her predecessor monarchs that ruled before her. Healthier too.

@@Swordslinger-hb1ns I wouldn't say that - she's never issued a veto for any of the immensely damaging legislation that's been proposed to her through her entire reign. This is to an extent understandable - if she had, she would probably have "had an unfortunate accident".

@@mr.powell8817 yes it is, and world needs competent rulers not those being chosen by idiots or opportunists who in normal system would never rule.

@@CheeseMan2916 China would be cool, cause there would be many American units and spies that probably survived and would be there, just like the Chinese troops in fallout 3

Fallout in the balkans: nothing is changed

Ahhhh Threads, now that was a post apocalypse lol

True, I like the unique way to approach problems like in new vegas. Its not just; go here, kill a bunch of people, grab something, come back. I love being able to use perks, skills, special stats, low intelligence, high intelligence to solve things differently.

@@UncannyLiving new vegas 🤓🤓🤓

​@@henrycrabs3497at least new Vegas much like one and two gave meaningful choices not a genetic binary good or be an ass option. Don't even get me started on the dialogue wheel from 4 or the institute being beyond our comprehension

Would still love to see her in it tho. Not that I'll end up playing

@@Evilfairy04 well, unfortunately they scrapped the plans to have her in the game.

Luckily Bethesda is pretty lax when it comes to modders, just look at frontier

Would be weird for Beth to do that considering stuff Like this is a big selling point for them.

Bethesda isn't Nintendo

@@yeetneet5334 well with Nintendo can you blame them? They've been pretty protective of their properties since the CDI

@@ntfoperative9432 I guess but it's getting to the point where Nintendo is seen as a villain almost, hell its not just fangames either

Meh, like she would need to turn ghoulish to live another century.

Are you a millenial?

Nah. She was pretty sketchy despite what the supposedly free press in the UK says.

My money is on “Laughable cartoonish evil”

Probably will have some depht to it. But seeing how fallout fans are and their disdain to things they deem absolutely bad, 5th Column will get a lot of things thrown to them.

@@JerichoJulius0 Likely so. I just want fleshed out factions that can justify themselves without the game having to tell me they're evil. If I am to dislike a faction, I want it to be where I personally disagree. You can make a ruthless faction too without making them cartoony. Legion is easily the best candidate for that. As well as Ashur from The Pitt.

Even though I’ll probably help the Camelot, these guys are definitely interesting

@@neofulcrum5013 they're also one I wanna peep

Nah they'll make her overpowered to double down on the joke of "Queen Elizabeth can't die"

You’re right. They scrapped the plans to have her in it.

That explains why I sometimes find ravens that are frozen in place. They're synths that have crashed.

Pretty funny though

It wasn't exactly in good taste to begin with

Oh you poor naive child.

Gold dragon insignia used by Camelot is an actual symbol used by the Welsh during the Glyndwr Uprising.
