Pre-War America wasn't that great and I wonder how much of that we'll see in the pre-war parts. On the surface things may have looked nice but underneath it was pretty terrible. Horrible authoritarian and corrupt government, invading Canada, resource shortages, Chinese-American Internment, New Plague, etc. I wonder if we'll see any of that in the pre-war parts. The Sole Survivor does seem to living in a pretty nice neighborhood so it's possible that we won't. But you know, if we end up talking to people about life before the war (like I imagine we will) I hope we're able to say that it was hardly a fabled 'golden era'.
I'm worried I'm going to have things spoiled on me, I've been avoiding news about the game but I won't be starting it until a few days after it comes out and even then, I'm not planning on rushing through it. From what I've heard people are already posting spoilers in the internet.
I don't think I mentioned it before, but it's cool how the default male character looks like Albert Cole who was one of the three default characters in Fallout 1. Check it:

I think this generation of gamers has gone blind from staring too long at their AAA shiny ultra realistic graphics, on their top of the line, steroid-enhanced PCs. Yes, the graphics aren't quite as good as your mindless shiny shooters, but there are so many reasons for that. This has been in development for years. And the game is broader and deeper than a few samey levels. Huge open worlds can't have *the* best graphics, or your processors would explode and set fire to your house.
