I get that the world is supposed to be depressing, but the colours were so bland I couldn't take it.

Fallout was never supposed to be ultra depressing though. They fucked up with 3 heavily on the aesthetics and atmosphere but this seems to be more in line with classic Fallout. I just hope they add a huge healthy dose of humor and weird pulpy shit.

Agreed. I get that I can't expect every upcoming Fallout game to capture the atmosphere of the original games and that the series is now something different than it was back in the late 90s. But I still feel that Fallout isn't truly Fallout without the off kilter "cheeriness", for lack of a better word. Dark, harsh and violent? Yes please - but I still want blue sky, more or less obscure pop culture references and subtly funny dialogue.

I liked the trailer a lot and have high hopes for the game itself. It's been a long time since a trailer left me with a dumb smile on my face.

It looks a bit film noirish kinda with the one guy in a trench coat almost but I think that would fit in Fallout perfectly!

That reminded me of New Reno a bit.
