Fallout 76’s Worst Nightmare of an ****** ‘The Scorched’ Were Almost Replaced by Something 100x More Terrifying

Like other games in the franchise, the game doesn’t shy away from grotesque and brutal visuals, especially with its ****** types. While the description sounds incredibly unsettling, it might have gone well with the game’s overall theme. Fans admitted so and asked the lead artist if there were alternatives to other enemies that didn’t make the game’s final cut.

, fans asked if other ****** types changed before the final build was released.

As fans guessed, there were numerous other ****** types, which were then altered in the final product. For example, the infamous scorch ****** queen was also not in Bethesda’s plans for the game.

The Interloper was one of the potentials. So was the giant Vulture that is stapled to Seneca Rocks
