Why was COA children of atom never added to fonv?

[Asenath]

I am wondering why COA children of atom never added to the lore of the game fonv? and is there even any children of atom fonv mods?

Because the children of atom were a dumb nonsensical invention of Bethesda that had no root in fallout lore and were made up to justify the ridiculousness of the settlement of megaton which made no sense. and there's no reason they would be in new Vegas anyway, especially considering it wasn't hit with atomic bombs.

Thank God those morons weren't added in NV. Would diminish the writing heavily.

this, they were bethesda's take on what fallout's dark humor was all about

They may have been made dumb in fallout 3 but in fo4 atom are my fav faction they are more intelligent plus the fo4 atom themed weapons and mods and the h,p.lovecraft version of COA from my fav dlc far harbour adds truth to COA mother of fog being a real being plus the COA song mod of fo4 polus few other mods COA became much better in fo4.

Because fallout new vegas is the sequel to fallout 2, which was the sequel to fallout. Fallout 3 is an alternate universe sequel to elder scrolls: oblivion.

This was my go to COA mod 'cause I derived more amusement from seeing lead paint-chip eating cultists getting bludgeoned & brained than the fireworks display from the tower. Looked for a TTW updated version only to find it has since been deleted. Made me sad.

So I am guessing that fo4 takes place in the same fo3 universe and not fonv am I right?

Well said, that's exactly right. The original devs would wholeheartedly agree. I appreciate Beth - they made Morrowind, which was a huge part of my teenage years - but strong writing has never been their forte. World building and "telling a story with the environment" is something they do extremely well on the other hand.

Daggerfall must have been a doozy for a first PC game. I just started playing that within the past year; I can't imagine the dual learning curve of figuring out Daggerfall as well as PCs/DOS.

Well Some dos games can be run with dos box and some can run without but still today I still like old school games but can't stand mmo/online games and wont ever play them Prefering single player games but my fav is still fo4 because of too many things it has and my send fav is fonv and skyrim both are tied as my second fave I m obsessed with rpg/open-world games freedom in games like this is what I love sadly not many games simular to these genre.

Honestly, they reason they were never added is simple: they're all the way on the east coast whereas New Vegas is pretty far west. Given how they've expanded into the Commonwealth in Fallout 4 I could see them eventually making it out west, assuming they keep growing and spreading their religion. At the time of New Vegas though, they're just too far east and mostly still just a small cult in the Capital Wasteland.

I can agree with that they were never added in van buren,fo1 or fo2 and these three took place in the west as well only fo3 and fo4 both are in the east but fo4 is my first fave and fo3 is my second fave only because it has my fav dlc point lookout that for some reason reminds me a little like fo4 far harbour not sure why maybe because the settings for both are h,p lovecraft themed and both are creepy I am a obsessed fan of everything h,p lovecraft, my third fav is fonv.
