Welcome to the Fallout: DUST Wikia
This Wikia is designed to help the beginner of Fallout: DUST by preparing them for the difficult journeys they'll face in the all new, and even more dangerous Mojave Wasteland.
DUST is a Post-Apocalyptic survival simulator with an emphasis on lore and story. DUST completely overhauls nearly every aspect of the game to better represent an apocalyptic survival-horror atmosphere. Combat, weather, perks, loot, enemies, you name it. Some areas have even been visually overhauled. All vanilla NPCs have either been killed or changed beyond all recognition. You will not be able to complete quests or join factions. There is but one quest in DUST. Escape the Mojave Wasteland alive.
DUST takes place 20 years after the events of New Vegas. As you explore you will slowly learn the story of DUST, but unlike vanilla Fallout, you are not the main character. You are simply a bystander, and must create your own story. There is one way to win DUST. A true survivor must escape the Mojave. With help from notes and keen observation, one may be able to learn of the exit. Even then, the player will have to go a long way to get out.
Created at the start of 2015 by Nexus Mods modder, naugrim04, DUST has seen many version updates and downloads. DUST eventually reached #1 file of the month of February 2015.
The Getting Started article contains installation instructions and links to futher explanations on the changes DUST introduces to the gameplay mechanics.
