    Technically, but he's kinda like the Obama or Gina Rodriguez of the Almsivi-- the gold half only counts when he wants to make a point about it.

    Okay, Vivec was literally a black man though. Dark grey, anyway.

    Some Fallout lore questions...

    I mean, say what you will, Tabitha was a national treasure.

    Some Fallout lore questions...

    A lot of this is going to be little more than logical extrapolation (possibly even a degree of fanon), but bear with me: The only times we see full-face mutant models in the first Fallout game are The Lieutenant and Harry, both of who bear lip straps. It always looked to me like the process...

    The original Fallout 3/Van Buren Phenomenon

    If it was released as intended it would have been one of the strongest RPGs of its era, I think. The general feel would have been a lot closer to F1 and the part of F2 that was developed before Tim Cain and co. left the team, which is both good and bad but would have been very much to my tastes...

    If Harold never made it to a Vault... (suggestion by Ugly Kid)

    I suppose some other high-tech faction like the aforementioned Union of Atomic Workers-- not them but someone like them, I think the timeline works out so that it was random mutants that wiped them out and not the Master's supers-- could have decided to do something with it, it being vacant in...

    What do you think would’ve happened to Myron, had he never been killed?

    For your hypothetical starting point, are you considering everything potentially mentioned in New Vegas dialogue as confirmed canon as of the end of F2? Bishops and Wrights ascendant, Mordinos and Salvatores smashed, New Reno destined for NCR and far stricter substance laws, etc?

    CPR may have helped ten years ago. At this point, DNR is probably the more ethical way to go.

    If Harold never made it to a Vault... (suggestion by Ugly Kid)

    The issue there becomes one of canon compatibility between Tactics and the core games. The Enclave were basically the originators of the Vault-Tec project and they seem to have full access to and external control of the vaults. It's entirely possible that, in a canon that fully incorporates...

    If Harold never made it to a Vault... (suggestion by Ugly Kid)

    I think you're probably right about that, although I think there's a much better chance of someone becoming a Harold than a Master-- in Talius we've seen at least one other example. Then again, come to think of it, he, Harold, and Grey all came from vaults. There WOULD probably be other people...

    If Harold never made it to a Vault... (suggestion by Ugly Kid)

    Stuff like this is the quintessence of why this subforum exists. Very nice work. "For want of a nail" exercises are always great, and you seem to have a real knack for them. (This one is actually sparking my brain in all kinds of directions though. I'm not going to hijack the thread with this...

    What if the Water Chip never broke?

    It is a fun mental exercise, and I think you've put in the logic to spin out an alternate history Harry Turtledove would be proud of. The earliest big issue I see with it as lain out here is the nature of the Unity and what happens when The Master dies. The thing that presumably provided the...

    And they cut most of the soft-queer content that was a big source of humor and whimsy and a major part of the romance in the original, to appease Chinese standards and play it safe in America. They pulled the rare hat trick of pissing off left, right, AND center in both their major markets for a...

    I'd say that them's fightin' words if I ever heard them, but I think it's far more important that we can find common ground in the rare sentiment, expressed only by the most courageous of ubermensch, that Bogus Journey is in fact criminally underrated.
