5 Nightmarish Abominations That Could Appear in Fallout 5

The most nightmarish thing about fallout 5 is the wait for it to actually come out. Taking bets. 10 years from now? Ish

I wanna see more nightmare mutants like Centaurs! The always freaked me out in fallout 3 and the series is missing pure nightmare fuel since.

If the May Pole was ever to appear in any game, it would be so awesome if it was surrounded by an eerie cloud of radioactive fog. Imagen walking around in the wasteland and suddenly being enveloped in a green fog. You hear a distant roar, and you look to see the silhouette of a massive being lumbering toward you with an army of snarling creatures at its feet.

In Fallout 4 they were going to add in Centaurs, later replaced with Mutant hounds and the concept art for them was horrifying. It looked like something out of John Carpenter's The Thing and I would love to see that in a Fallout game at some point.

If Jenkins had been hit by a pistol shrimp that size, he’d literally be a bag of liquid inside his skin. Mantis shrimp punches are so fast, it super heats the water in front of them. Without power armour, he’d be a stain on the rocks.

The same gamebook that has the Gigapede also has a giant glowing Ghoul, which I’ve been assuming is a nod to May-Pole. Let’s just say the Last Son of Atom is experimenting with much more than just radiation…

The May-Pole was retroactively sort of canonized. A much smaller but still massive ghoul (I think more like 30 foot instead of 300) appears in Winter of Atom as well, wandering the Glowing Sea.

The 1 animal I would love to see is Old Peg the Ghoul Whale(or any other whale). One of the guards at Bunker Hill talked about it. It bums me out that Bethesda had to cut the undersea vault quest, which lets you fight some sea creatures(but understandable because the game engine couldn’t handle it yet). I would love to see some Herman Melville references lol 😂. Plus it would be cool to see a giant mutated Great White Shark!! Oh sooooo many awesome ideas!!

A Liberty prime vs Kaiju quest line would be cool. “Ok we defeated the institute now what?” “Let’s fight some monsters!”

It would be so cool to have tons of giant creatures in Fallout 5 that dwarf creatures from past games, especially in water. Also, it would be interesting to explain what happened to the company Vault Tec after the Great War, so maybe they could be the main antagonists that are responsible for releasing tons of these abominations and new threats

Now we know that there could of been a massive horde of dancing ghouls around a very large wooden glowing one in the fallout universe

Holy shit, a mantis Shrimp that size could probably obliterate power armor in a single hit

Spiders, arachnids, all choosing Texas of all places and the two states on either side. Reason: Rare events called "megawebs" have been known to happen in Texas after very heavy rains, not unlike what Austin has experienced in recent weeks. The temporary phenomenon involves hundreds of thousands of spiders living together in a giant spider web stretching across multiple trees. Might as well have JRR Tolkein inspired spiders as well, Ugoliath is the size of City Bus.

After hearing about ASL thing for Gigaped, i cant stop laughing after thinking about one random dude standing in the open and when you approach him, he starts doing hand signs for summoning jutsu, after which a giant centipede arises from the ground, accompanied with boss music lmfao I would like to have Wanamingos back in game, or one at least

The Mantis Shrimp could be a mutated Pistol Shrimp. Which is capable of firing a burst of air at the speed of a bullet. Which would be far worse at the described size.

I want more fauna. Razorback pigs, snakes, wildcats, birds of prey, etc. A good bunch of animals are surprisingly resilient and breed quickly, and while I love the fact 76 gave us possums, foxes, owls, toads, frogs and bats; I feel like the wasteland could use more animals running around.

I'd love to see a massive snake enemy in Fallout 5.

What about a spider/deathclaw/nightstalker hybrid creature? (it could also have a glowing variant) It'd be a Spider, but also have aspects of a Deathclaw such as the claws, horns, and scaley armored hide, then add the camo abilites of the nightstalker from New Vegas. I imagine it'd be about the size of a car, and be REALLY aggressive and deal a lot of poision damage quickly. The normal one could be based on either a Tarantula or Black Widow, but also have a trapdoor variant that waits for you to come to it rather than actively seeking you out.

I've always wanted to see some form of giant beetle enemy, particularly a Stag but really any kind of giant mutated beetle. Bombardier would also be an interesting choice I suppose. I just really, really want a tank-sized insect... Tank.

I hope Todd takes more risks making Fallout 5 a bit darker. I really enjoy Fallout 4 as a game, but compared next to New Vegas it feels so soft I suppose. I was very disappointed by the super mutant designs and the fact they made generic guard dogs instead of an updated centaur. The color palettes didn’t help much either. It just felt all too colorful and clean and cheerful rather than bleak and broken and desperately trying to put itself back together
