It wouldn't be possible for people to get noticeably taller if it was just thick combat armor, it would have to be some kind of mechanized larger-than-man suit. That would be disastrous!įallout 4,at least in some ways, was closer to fallout 2, in that the powered armored people were larger than the unarmored people. Which would mean that you'd get stuck in doorways, probably on stairs, and at worst, you would clip through the floor upon loading an interior because you where too big to fit in it. You'd be as big as a super mutant or a death claw. Plus, I don't think you would be able to fit everywhere. It was no different than wearing normal armor.
Plus, I like the ridiculousness (which in turn is simplicity) on how in Fallout 3 / New Vegas while wearing power armor. So you would have to jump out of your power armor, then get right back in it. For example, if you want to hack a terminal while sitting down, you wouldn't be able to do that. Because while wearing power armor in Fallout 4, you can't even carry out basic actions anymore. So if those same mechanics where in Fallout 3 / New Vegas. Similar to how spartan armor works in halo. This would be especially useful when getting in vehicles, because they would be able to accommodate you. It's supposed to give you some massive defense, but still allowing the wearer to get around easily. Because to me, power armor is like modern knight armor. It changed from armor to mechanized infantry. I absolutely positively despised what Bethesda did with the Power Armor in Fallout 4.
