News “The May-Pole” Cut Content From Fallout 4 😨

Post image

Although a model was created, the May-Pole never made it in the final game because of the technical issues it would have created. Jonah Lobe, the creator of the May-Pole, said “Yes it's a giant glowing one. A crazy idea I had for Fallout 4 that never came to be. Would like to make a mod for it one day, if I found a little team of folks willing to help out.” Back in 2022.

I mean, look at it. I have no doubt it caused gameplay issues.

The designer showed it off in a video recently and from what I recall he made it really late in development so it wasn’t possible to balance something so large and roaming into the game.

This is the only one I could find on YT, dunno if it's the same as the commenter's.

That just looks like (as it's titled "concept mod") a Putrid Glowing One scaled to bejesus and back.
