this is a great video explaining everything there is to know about it, from cut content to strange coincidences in chinese mobile games.
I know for sure some of you wont have time to sit through all 30 minutes of the video so ill summarize VERY briefly.
Essentially there is a company in the Fallout universe called "Dunwich Borers LLC." that took a big interest in excavating "secret and strange" buried temples. in FO4, there is a mine called "dunwich borers" that is haunted by the being Ug-Qualtoth.
There are similar locations in fallout 3 and fallout 76, and it seemed like they were just "easter egg" refrences, until people started finding more things connecting them. a NPC character called "Lorenzo" is found in the insane asylum, and talks about finding a hidden city under the desert in arabia, when he was exploring it he found a crown that gave him immortality and whispered things to him. he also hints that there is a city under the Mohave desert.
In fallout 3s DLC "Point lookout" there is a "strange and evil book" written by a man named "Alhazred" that the player can either return to an old man who claims its a "family heirloom" or it can be destroyed by placing it in an altar at an office building called "dunwich building".
it basically connects these things (and many, many more fascinating things) and provides evidence that its this being, Ug-Qualtoth, that started the great war and was behind the apocalypse the whole time. The most solid evidence being that its Ug-Qualtoth that poisoned the mind of Richard Dunwich, founder of dunwich borers LLC, and convinced him to start digging up old temples. and that Ug-Qualtoth also poisoned the minds of the richest and most powerful people pre war, including Vault Tec and government elites, to ultimately bring about the apocalypse. there is specific evidence for this claim aswell.
