10 Years Ago, The Fallout 4 Reveal Trailer Dropped!

Post by TheKingofVault14 »



This reveal trailer right here, was probably one of the most exciting gaming announcements I've ever experienced as a gamer!


To give y'all some perspective...



The past three years prior to June 2nd, 2015 were filled with a lot of rumors & speculation!


First in 2012, was the rumors of a Fallout 4 being made & released in the near future, alongside the fact that The Bethesda Team was seen scouting the Boston, Massachusetts area. Adding more fuel to the fires of speculation surrounding Fallout 4!


Then in the following year, were two particular things that happened...


1. Around November 2013 a website emerged with a countdown called TheSurvivor2299, which people thought would be the official reveal of Fallout 4, but it turned out to be an elaborate hoax by a MASTER TROLL!

& 2. The Infamous December 2013 Script Leak of Fallout 4's opening narration! Plus a quick summary of certain roles for some of the characters that we mostly hate & laugh at: Preston Garvey, Travis Miles, ETC.


And then in 2014, after all that happened in the previous year, we got absolutely NOTHING! ZERO news about Fallout 4 that year, it was basically a dry season/a depression period.


So when that announcement trailer was dropped 10 years ago from today, you can imagine the reaction of me, & so many others had when we saw it.


To finally see it come to fruition after going through three years of speculating,(& being bamboozled) was AMAZING! It was quite the ride, & I'm glad I experienced it in that way. :thumbsup:



Also, I'm just wondering...



What was your reaction & experience when Fallout 4's reveal trailer was dropped??? Was it similar to my experience as I've described it all above? OR did you just simply find out about it, on the day of the announcement trailer?

I remember sitting next to my dad and watching the trailer over and over. I had such high hopes for the game. My dad ended up loving it, but I've never really gotten into it.

A lot of people here weren't impressed with it. The trailer or the game.

Yeah, that sounds about right!


Definitely where the old school/veterans Fallout Fans are, weren't convinced & amused.
