I'd personally say the Mojave. It's hot, it's a radioactive desert which means all of the scary things in a normal desert are 10 times as scary, little water, sand, and the raider gangs there are the most violent. Second would be the Capital wasteland because super mutants and everything is radioactive, and third would be the Commonwealth because synths. I don't know much about the wastelands in Fallout 1 & 2.

Fallout 1 & 2 are the same place Mojave wouldn't be too bad either because you've got the NCR protecting ya. In my opinion, Fallout 4's. Constant fear of The Institute, an underground corporation, and the Brotherhood in that game are just cunts.

5 RepliesThe first two Fallouts are actually set in post-nuclear California and part of Oregon, and Nevada.

Fallout 1, 2, and New Vegas are all set in the Mojave Desert, the difference being that 1 and 2 are far, far more california centered. 1 means you are actively being hunted down by the master and his super mutant legions, 2 means you're being hunted by the new master and the enclave(remnants of the original pre-war US government). through 1 and then 2, you actually set up the system that becomes the New California Republic. life is actually easier there. there are no intelligent robots trying to kill you ala the matrix, little radiation, far less mutants, and most raiders are sane enough to be able to be traded with if you dress the same. doesn't really matter though. the moment you step foot into the fallout universe, you are [url=http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Forced_Evolutionary_Virus]infected with some strain of F.E.V., a pre-war bioweapon that mutates your DNA[/url]

Fallout 1 Gonna have a hard time in an apocalyptic desert with a Super Mutant army literally on the hunt 24/7 for people to turn into more super mutants. Not a fun place to live.

2 RepliesI guess not many people have played the first Fallout? It's set only some 80 years after the bombs fell, and the majority of the map is a nuclear-scarred hellscape. Everything is desolate and barren aside from the handful of locations you can visit during the course of the game.

4 RepliesI don't think people realise how bad the capital wasteland really is.
-
8 RepliesThe Mojave is actually one of the best. They have electricity, a steady clean water supply, and very low radiation- almost no mutants.

Mojave Cazadores and Malcolm Holmes

6 RepliesIf we go by timelines, probably the Mojave because the red cloud and the Tunnellers are going to engulf the land. Northern Plains Commonwealth must be pretty bad, too.

Edited by What I Look Like: 6/5/2017 2:33:24 PMMojave and then Commonwealth. I think Commonwealth would be especially terrifying. See, out in the Mojave 9 times out of 10 (irl) you're dying to dehydration or radiation. It's a huge desert. Dangerous as all hell, to be sure, but you likely wouldn't even get the chance to get mauled by a radiated beast. Once the Tunnelers from Lonesome Road make it to the Mojave, THEN shit really hits the fan. Commonwealth retained a lot of infrastructure, which means more shelter for survivors and animals alike. Raiders and Super Mutants have taken control of the downtown area almost entirely and there are at least 56 different ways to die before nature gets to you there. Ghouls seemed be much more common as well, I imagine they'd travel in packs irl.

You really can't not pick The Mojave when you actually think about everything that is going bad for it.

Patrolling the Mojave makes me almost wish for nuclear winter.

I understand why the Mojave is winning but I'd rather be there if I had to pick a wasteland. Kill Mr House and kick the Legion and NCR out of the region and have my own personal casino while taking vacations at Big MT whenever I get tired of running the Vegas strip.

I think of this, every time I play New Vegas.

2 RepliesMojave because I don't like sand.

That's like asking if you wanted to live in Syria or Iraq 🤔
-
Is the capital wasteland before or after the water purification?
-
I'd say the Mojave as well. Its a pretty extreme climate even before you pile on the raiders and supermutants.
-
I think the commonwealth's threat level depends on who's left in power between the factions at the end.
-
1 ReplyMojave. Because that's the only one where you could also just die from heat or exhaustion. What a shitty way to die that would be in a post apocalypse
-
2 RepliesMojave. By far. I'm on vacation and I just came from there, it's hot as FÙCK. Pretty much your only major sources of water "nearby" are Lake Mead and the Colorado River unless it rains, and it's a desert so that won't be happening as often as it would in big cities like DC or Boston. Even if they're not irradiated, lake/river water is absolutely not healthy in large doses. Your best shot at surviving is probably Vegas. Everywhere else is vulnerable to raider/Legion attacks or is poorly governed. Can't get into Vegas? Shit outta luck! Welcome to hell, population: enough Cazadors, Deathclaws, Nightstalkers, ghouls, supermutants, etc. to murder everyone in your family across several generations. If you luck out and survive those, you'll eventually die of dehydration, starvation, heat exhaustion, radiation poisoning, or... who am I kidding, I'd die of one of those things before I could write out the whole list of what else could kill you in post-nuclear Nevada. And if you [i]do[/i] manage to survive all that, enjoy your life in a desert where one wrong turn could have you walking to your grave! Despite all that, New Vegas is and always will be my favorite Fallout.

The Mojave. No private places to pee.
