Fallout 76 Boss Teases Future Fallout Season 2 Crossovers
2018's online MMO Fallout 76 wasn't a smash hit right out of the gate. In fact, it was a complete mess. But over the years, after updates added NPCs and new areas to explore, the game turned into something pretty cool. And now, the director behind Fallout 76 is teasing future plans involving the next season of Amazon's live-action Fallout show. When Amazon's Fallout show landed last year, it quickly became one of the biggest shows of 2024. It was nominated for a bunch of awards, won some of them, made all the old Fallout games super popular again, and quickly got picked up for a second season that is set to arrive in December. But one thing that didn't happen around the launch of the show was the reveal of a new Fallout game or any kind of big updates for previous games tied into the Amazon series. (The mobile game got a tiny tie-in update.) This time around, it sounds like Bethesda has some actual crossover plans with the show and at least one game. 'We're always focused on the game,' Fallout 76 creative director Jon Rush told Variety. 'I think a distinct trait of the 'Fallout 76' game is that we're the furthest back in time. And it's kind of funny, because the [Fallout show] is the furthest into the future. So there's a lot of room where we don't necessarily need to overlap. There are some things that we could overlap the stories, that could exist, but we largely try to keep those pretty simple.' Rush explained that the show is 'great' at telling a Fallout story as it is made by 'big fans' of the franchise. As such, the games and shows go 'together really well.' And that brings people from the Amazon series to the games. And some of these people will likely be expecting some content from the series, which Rush teased might be happening. 'Lining things up with the seasonal releases of the show, it's stuff that we talk about all the time, and we do have plans for things here and there,' said Rush. 'I'm not going to go into detail on any of those now, but the two teams do talk to one another.' So I doubt Lucy will appear in Fallout 76, the timeline doesn't support it. And fans are already mad about the Fallout timeline as it is. But it does sound like everyone involved with the show and games understands this time around how huge the series is and that doing some crossover content would be smart. There have been rumors for a while now about a Fallout 3 or New Vegas remaster. And season two of Fallout will feature New Vegas. Hmmm... something to think about. .

Here's What 19 People Who Make Over $100K Do For A Living
Recently, I asked members of the BuzzFeed Community who make over $100K what they did and what kind of experience they had. I honestly loved the transparency from them, so here are 19 salaries from 19 different professions. 1."Bookkeeper – $120K, no degree. Just 12 years working my way from admin assistant, learning on the job, and progressing with the same company." — 33, Melbourne, Victoria 2."International school teacher in China – $159,000. 10+ years, Bachelor's in Education degree." — 42, China 3."College professor – $120K. I got my BS and MS, did a year-long (unpaid) internship, and passed the credentialing exam. I worked a few other jobs, then moved into academia, where I've been for 11 years." — 39, Rhode Island 4."Clinical Director of a healthcare agency. I've been a Registered Nurse for 15 years and in leadership for five years. I have a BSN degree. Basically, it took 10 years of bedside nursing, two years of moving up the ranks, and two raises to be over $100K/year, and I barely am. People think nurses make a ton of money, and we really don't, especially in FL. — 45, FL 5."Nurse anesthetist – $216,000." — 38, Birmingham, AL 6."Creative Director – $165K. I've been in advertising for 12 years. No undergrad, but I went to a certificate program for graphic design for two years. It's a great career option for someone who is artistic or creative and doesn't want a super corporate job." — 35, Atlanta 7."Project Manager – $140K. Concrete construction, no education, accepted challenges as they presented themselves." — 53, River Falls, Wisconsin 8."Nurse practitioner for hospital medicine. Salary currently is $121,800 in a very HCOL area. I graduated from nursing school in 2010 and spent years at the bedside before starting my master's degree, which was a prolonged pursuit for various life reasons. I have been a practicing NP since 2020. I completed an advanced practice fellowship to expand my knowledge base and hone my clinical skills. I would do it again, but it was a massive pay cut ($40K) after already practicing. I've been with my division since 2022, and I've steadily made about an $8K increase every year after a significant pay increase after completing the fellowship. I work in academic medicine, so pay will always be less but my quality of life (I roll PTO into my schedule so every month I have at least seven days, sometimes more, off in a row while still being able to plan for vacation and get approved time off), access to ongoing education, benefits, and retirement are all top tier." — 43, Denver, Colorado 9."Architect – $135,000. Been working in the biz for 40 years. Five years of undergrad to get a Bachelor's degree in Architecture, one year to get a master's. Three years of internship, and an architectural license in New York (a week-long series of exams). I moved to California and had to take a supplemental exam to get licensed there." — 63, California 10."Retired Army Officer. My pension, disability, and social security put me over $100K. I served 22 years, have three degrees, and traveled the world. After the army, I worked in heavy industry for 20 years, and now I work for myself. I own a small business and choose my own schedule." — 64, Las Vegas 11."I'm an Industrial Safety Professional. I've been doing it for about 10 years in various industrial settings (mining, oil, gas, and power generation). The pay is roughly $110K starting and goes up from there, depending on the company you're working for. It's pretty light work as long as you don't mind the public speaking/meeting leader aspect. Incident investigations can be rough and stressful, though. No formal schooling for the role, just sort of fell into it. Lots of colleges offer industrial hygiene or occupational health degrees that would be beneficial in the role." — 33, Wyoming 12."I'm a travel physical therapist making between $100K–$120K for a two-year contract. I work for a company with over 600 outpatient clinics, and they have a high turnover with plenty of new grads, but the pay is some of the best in my field. I have a Doctorate of Physical Therapy, and this is my first job post-grad school." — Texas 13."I work at a large university as the director of a medium-sized program and make $106,000. I have a bachelor's, a master's, and am working on my doctorate. I have worked in higher education for over 15 years. I didn't make good money until accepting this position three years ago. The first 12 years were rough and I paid my dues. Working in higher education has changed so much; I wouldn't recommend it anymore." — 40, NC 14."Scrap crane operator for a steel mill, have been operating the crane for about two years now, but have been working in steel mills for seven. Last year grossed $110K, and that's with a GED." — 33, NY 15."VP, Legal – $199K with a 25% bonus target, which has been paid out over 100% for the past two years. I'm the sole in-house counsel of a software company, so their de facto general counsel. I've been with this company for four years. Prior to becoming in-house counsel (and getting promoted to VP) I worked in contracts management positions for a variety of larger corporations right out of law school. Definitely a different path to becoming in-house counsel since most do at least one stint at a law firm, but I figured it out without ever having to suffer through billable hours!" — 37, Cape Cod, MA 16."RN, $150,000+. Worked my way through the ranks. I started as a phlebotomist drawing blood, then a medical assistant, then a CNA, then an LPN, and have been an RN for 34 years. I have a BSN and two national specialty certifications in wound care and ostomy care, which is a very niche market as not too many RNs have them." — 64, Seattle 17."Tattoo Artist, $180K, 9 years experience. Was previously a cook." — 46, Minnesota 18."Nurse manager, $150,000/year, 10 years experience, master's degree." — 31, NJ 19."Clinical Research Manager in mental health – $102,000. Got a master's in 2016 and slowly worked my way up from a research assistant." — 34, Delaware Are you willing to share how much you make and what you do?
