Though it seems little more than an Easter Egg to some, I think it's this inclusion that drives home my DLC theory. Zetans in Fallout 4īelieve it or not, the Zetans have already made an appearance in Fallout 4. They could send hundreds of thousands of Motherships in retaliation (if we, the players, are lucky). As I mentioned above, we don't know how large the Zetans' forces are. I don't know about you guys, but if I was a Zetan that got wind of this genocide, I would be pretty pissed.

Long story short, we slaughter every alien aboard and use the Death Ray to destroy another approaching alien vessel. The Zetans try to scare us by firing their Death Ray, but let's be honest: we're the Lone Wanderer and we're out of f**ks to give. In the climax of the first stage of the DLC, we get to use an old, dead astronaut's garb to perform a spacewalk and access a teleporter, bringing us to the next part of the ship. After the Lone Wanderer's arrival the "inmates" stage an escape and begin their assault on the ship. The player is then subject to a good alien probing and locked up with previous patients. On our approach, we are suddenly beamed up to the alien Mothership Zeta orbiting Earth above the Capital Wasteland. When we arrive at the signal's broadcast location: a crashed alien recon craft. Being the wonderful wasteland savior that we are, we decide to investigate. So, here we are, the Lone Wanderer, just walking around and minding our own business when we suddenly receive a strange radio transmission. If you missed that juicy bit of downloadable content it's time for a recap! Way back before Fallout 4, Bethesda had players tangling with alien lifeforms in, or rather above, the Capital Wasteland of Fallout 3. Where do they come from? Are they nomadic? How many are there? What is the extent of their weapon power? What is their mission? Are they actually hostile or do they only attack us because we're always "that a**hole who appears out of nowhere and started shooting"? Just think, those were only a couple of the ideas that popped into my brain. Here I'll give a brief of example of what we currently don't know of the Zetans. Through the study of existing notes and computer terminals, players have weeded out the true origins and history behind a lot of the series' main contenders such as Vault-Tec, The Brotherhood of Steel, and more, but without more information, the Zetans are lost on us. Therefore, with so many questions to be answered, it seems only logical to include a new Zeta-esque DLC for the Fallout series. We also know that they have extremely advanced weaponry which has made an appearance in Fallout 4. What, exactly, do we know about the aliens of the Fallout universe? We know that they are ponderous, beaming several generations of people for study into Mothership Zeta in the Fallout 3 add-on.
