I have a few questions:1. I am not familiar the Fallout series. How much will I need to know about it in order to participate? 2. Are weapons predicated on a particular outline or can I invent them as my mind pleases? I understand the concept of overpowered from others but I'm not sure how much room I have to work with on this. 3. The three factions have no real detail in the premise. Are they based off the series (which may or may not answer my first question) or are they freeform? All in all, I'd love to join. I'm just unsure if I'm...prepared to do so, knowledge-wise just yet. xD
Well, there's a lot to the Fallout Universe, though it would be too much if you wanted to know everything about it. That being said, there are some key things such as items, not so much weapons as the weapons in the game are pretty much generic, but other things like chems and such that you must know. If you want to, i'd head over to the Fallout wikis, they would explain some beginner things. Once you learn the basics, you can pretty much handle what is given and could go along with ease.
Now the factions: The Brotherhood of Steel is part of the Fallout canon, they are like the mediators of the wasteland, and they also happen to be the flagship faction of the whole series. They're not bad, but they're not good either, though they lean more towards good than they do bad.
Tribals are what they are; they're savage tribals
And neutral is well, neutral. Just a survivor in the wastes
