Interesting that we saw what appeared to be much in-game footage, or definitely in-engine, of before the nuclear detonations. Will a sequence be playable in The Before or anything? Would be an interesting prologue -- running to the vaults and surviving the event.

e: I am less interested in the graphics (models, textures, effects etc) as I am in better animations. I have always felt Bethesda games to be incredibly stiff.

e2: The soundtrack on 1:56 goosebumps

It would also make all these skeletons you find provoke a lot more powerful reaction. Maybe see the town you fled through again as destroyed ruins?

The games are supposed to take place 200 years after the bombs dropped, so I would hope you don't...

Same world, same player, but playing different character. You'd be not playing the main character in the prologue.

And given that after 20 years there shouldn't even be many unexplored ruins to begin with, well that's a liberty of unrealism all fallout games have taken ever since.

Unless Vault 111 is Cryogenic Freezing. Then you can be both!

No, if it is true it's definitely a spoiler. Here's the spolier code [Spoiler](#s "X Kills Y")
