New York and parts of New Jersey(Mod/Story)

 

Creating an ambitious, narrative-heavy mod for a Fallout game set in New York and parts of New Jersey would involve developing a rich, immersive world filled with diverse enemies, factions, groups, and creatures, alongside a host of engaging side missions and stories.

4. The Jersey Devils: A faction of mutated, bestial humans who live in the Pine Barrens, believed to be the result of failed FEV experiments.
5. The Smog Raiders: Bandits who use the ruins of industrial areas in NJ as their base, specializing in chemical and gas weaponry.

New Factions

Creatures

1. Subway Ghouls: Aggressive ghouls that roam the subway tunnels, more feral and numerous than their surface counterparts.

4. Chemical Conspiracy: Investigate a series of chemical attacks linked to The Smog Raiders, revealing a larger plot that threatens both NY and NJ.

Unique Locations

1. Empire State Stronghold: A heavily fortified base within the Empire State Building, controlled by a powerful faction.
