History NightmareFuel / Fallout4

* There needs to be some special mention of the new redesign of the [[BearsAreBadNews Yao Guai]]. Introduced in Fallout 3, these were essentially mutated, and possibly ''ghoulified'' black bears. Although being absolutely ''terrifying'' looking, they didn't really scream 'bear' so much. Fallout 4 is correcting this in [[RealityEnsues the worst way possible]] by making them very realistic looking bears. That are giant. ''And mutant'' [[http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/2/27/Fo4_Yao_Guai_E3_PreRelSs.png/revision/latest?cb=20150615133220]]

* The Feral Ghouls are also back, and the way they sprint... Just the way they sprint toward their prey is now 10 times more unsettling thanks to the realistic physics and animations. Left 4 Dead fans couldn't be prouder

* Imagine the InUniverse nightmare fuel the above things are to Mr/s 111, many of the wastelands creatures aren't too shocking to the average wastelander these days, but to your player character it must seem like many a nightmare come to life.

** At least with the 'Veteran', he was shown from a long-distance, and [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill getting nuked to the face by the protagonist's Fat Man]]. Considerably more intimidating is the 'Raider Psycho', a muscled-up bruiser in a full kit of PostApunkalypticArmor, and [[LightningBruiser charging at full speed with a spiked bat]] - [[OhCrap all while the player only has a bolt-action rifle to defend with]].

* Even Raiders seem buffed compared to their last gen counterparts- one of the 'Veteran' class raiders even had his own bloody suit of ''power armor.''

** Magnificently, and somewhat odds-defyingly, they've managed to make Deathclaws ''even worse''. Deathclaws were the definition of LightningBruiser in Fallout 1 and 2, having huge movement and dealing tremendous damage, in addition to taking absurd amounts of firepower to kill. Fallout 3 and 4 lowered this quality a bit, mostly due to the stiffness of their running animations; they were still fairly fast, but they ran like their legs were on a different animation loop than their static bodies. The Deathclaw in the E3 gameplay reveal, however, is not only treated as a proper BossFight, with its own intro of bursting out of the ground, allies helping the player fight it, and the general size and power of the thing- but its animation is ''slick''. It ''dodges'' at one point, juking sideways like the sucker's on rollerskates. Deathclaws have reclaimed their place as the premier threats of Fallout, fast as the death they bring.

* Radscorpions can now tunnel out of the earth right under your feet. Tread lightly.

** As if that wasn't enough look at the background behind the Deathclaw... it looks almost like it was pulled straight out of [[FalloutNewVegas The Divide.]] Just imagine what it would be like to see something similar to the Marked Men or Tunnelers on a next gen system... or don't if you want to get some sleep tonight. Suddenly, the [[ThatOneLevel Courier's Mile]] doesn't sound quite so bad...

* The civilians running for the entrance to the underground vault, only to find it sealed, and they turn and watch as a bomb falls and the shockwave comes for them. Let's hope that they all died in that shockwave, or else they better get used to their new looks and living forever to see how horrifying the word ''Wasteland'' can be...

* One of the new mutant critters, glimpsed in the E3 demo, is a ''giant mosquito.'' It's introduced sticking its enormous proboscis into the protagonist's chest. ''In first person.''. Cazadore will never get any less nightmarish

** Even worse, the E3 demo depicts some of the new dynamic actions the game's engine is capable of. Namely, we get to see the Deathclaw grab the Vault Dweller and lift him overhead head, ''from the dweller's point of view.''

* Only a trailer and Bethesda already hit us with the nightmare fuel, namely, the news report during the 2077 segments. Anyone who has heard actual news reports during large disasters or travesties knows how jarring and terrifying it is when reporters aren't Stepford wives levels of upbeat.

* Deathclaws are back, and bulkier and nastier-looking than ever.
