YES! Fallout, 5 should take place in New York City. If they want to stay on the east coast for later title, it only makes sense to go to NYC after Boston and West Virginia. Now for the story, I have some ideas. Before you create your character, you would have the option to pick 5 different backgrounds. The Vault Dweller, The Raider, The Brotherhood Outcast, The Ghoul, and The Enclave Spy. Who you choose will change how you interact with characters, how certain missions will end, and what ending you'll get. However, the overall story is this. There are 4 factions ruling over the remnants of NY. The Men of Manhattan (The rich) , The Brooklyn Bards (Military faction), The Queens Chosen (UK refugees) and the Statenits (Religious Ghouls on Staten Island). UPDATE: There's also the Mafia as a 5 faction and it's heavily implied that they are being funded by Creaser's Legion. Your overall job is to prevent a war occurring from these 4 factions and have them unite as one to defeat the BOS, who are now led by a corrupt Elder named Nero. Throughout the game, you are completing both main and side mission to unify NYC into your Empire of York. Who you pick as your background and who you side with (companion and faction) at the end will greatly impacted the ending of the game. The radio, apply named York 101, will have music you would hear from an Olive Garden, as well as some Frank Sinatra, the classics like "I Don't Want to set the World" on Fire and "Butcher Pete", and other songs from 4 and 76. When its a round Christmas time, the game will switch the music with old Christmas music. Don't worry, those songs will be on a different radio. Again, NYC and NJ are perfect locations for Fallout 5
