Fallout has some factions that I think should come back in Fallout. Are there any factions you think should make comeback, big or small?

I know everyone is gonna shout about the Enclave, and sure while I'd like to see them back, I wanna see the Blades come back first, or the Shi.

Or maybe even the beastlords from Tactics, they were cool, if a little crazy. (Maybe under Wild Wasteland)

I also remember a religious group called the Hands of God were gonna be in Van Buren.

For a post apocalypse there sure is a lack of psycho-fanatical pseudo-religious murder cults.

No doubt that the Republic of Dave from Fallout 3 should reappear.
I think the NCR should make a comeback, maybe an appearance that makes them look bad pitched against a "good" new faction.

I'd like to see any remnants of arroyo or the Yakuza, or a whole slew from FO2 really. I'd really like to see factions have the same character as the first two games really, FNV has tons of character but not as much as 2 did.

Tunnel Snakes, obviously guys.

The enclave should return, no i don't like the enclave but theirs armors are cool, and they are truly baddasses oponents

I personally think a certain faction from Fallout 3 should come back. The one that ruled, y'know the tunnel snakes?

I'd certainly like to see the Legion again.
Maybe I'm a dlc, involving Legion remnant forces squabbling over the last of Caesar's holdings. It would be fun to see what became of them after their second defeat at Hoover Dam.

I know they're not a faction per-say, but I'd love to see intelligent super mutants like Marcus show up again. I really don't like the way Bethesda treats super mutants, as in, making them big, brain dead, bullet sponge ogres that you have to shoot "cuz they're big an' grween an' scarewy". I think Obsidian's approach to them makes much more sense, yes, some get turned into mentally disabled monsters, but others can be perfectly reasonable and can get along in society quite well. This also brings up strong moral questions, and generally makes the game world have a bit more depth. It would be cool to see a super mutant city or town, with an intelligent Behemoth acting as king or something, they could even have recruitment drives for normal wastelanders to become Super Mutants by choice or something, like they could play adds over the radio convincing people that being a mutant is better, i.e. rad resistance, strength, that kind of stuff. As if they are still trying to follow the master, but in a more diplomatic way or something? I don't know, I'm just spitballing, but I think as a faction, the mutants have a lot of potential, and seeing them squandered in such a way as in 3 and 4 makes me sad.

What little we got from the Talon Company in Fallout 3, I would love to see that expanded upon or reintroduced in some way. I realize that essentially they are a group of mercenaries for hire but it was always said they work some some shady unknown character to keep the Wasteland crazy and never have laws. I love that and in truth they are similar to Gunners but the gunners just seemed to get hired for small jobs, not under one leader like the Talon Company. I want to know who the guy is!

@KentuckyFT I completely agree with you. I wish they had a backstory of some sort. Some good quests to go along with them. Who hired them to kill you if you were of a good moral character. Where they came from. They're just a mysterious group in general.

The Shi could really use an expansion. They were always a bit vague in Fallout 2. More characters would've been nice.

It'd be nice to see Goris again, or at least someone who remembers the Intelligent Deathclaws. It'd be a shame if they're just written off as extinct.

I think that the residents of Vault City would be cool to interact with. If they came out of their shell and started doing caravans and setting up shops, that would be cool.

Personally, I'd love to see the return of 'Sudden-Death Overtime' or one of the many Ice Gangs from Canada. Something about fighting arena-style in a raider-fied hockey rink with bladed sticks seems like such a hilariously 'fallout' moment, shouting miss-appropriated hockey terminology at you while you're fighting of course. =P

Vault 13's Death Claws, you know, the ending where they weren't killed off by Frank and his goon squad. Want to see a talking death claw in first person. Oh, and Goris.

I would like to see the faction from the Pitt(fallout 3 dlc) Get expanded and see what happens to them you know after you find the cure and what not, or maybe even the Great Khans

The NCR for sure! I dont know if you guys heard of the newvegas frontier mod? something like that would be nice in an actual new game.

As far as I am concerned the more we get of Reilly and her Rangers the better. I really want to see their story expand out and not die out in obscurity like so many minor factions.

I do miss the NCR and some of the mercenary groups like talon company or regulators. I do want to see more than a few groups and having factions like these would allow you to have more choice of what you want to do, and if you are good or bad e.g. Talon company is evil mercenarys, regulators are like good mercs in a way. I would love to see these 3 groups expanded and given more interesting roles.

Someone's probably said them already but I thought Reilly's Rangers were a pretty cool group in Fallout 3. It'd be cool to see them again, like maybe they've expanded more as a reconnaissance organisation.
