That old lady in Megaton says that they dragged stuff from an airport and did such a thorough job that you’d never be able to tell there was an airport there. From what I can remember at least.

I once had a similar idea to categorize factions. This is a good start, a couple of things come to mind though: As far as origins, I’m not sure if Pre-War and Military are much of a distinction. Seems military-descended organizations could be lumped in with any other faction that is rooted in...

I don’t know, I just have a vague memory of her mentioning other chapters of the Brotherhood when you ask her about them. Maybe she only mentions the east coast guys, I can’t remember.

At this point I’m not sure if “canonicity” matters to me at all. Not just fallout, but any franchise. Especially when franchises get so big and bloated and go through countless writers and artists. The only canon that matters is my own headcanon, which means anything I consider “stupid” or “gay”...

Yeah I don’t think you can deactivate the red ones

Perhaps this is off topic but I’m curious what the backstory is for the prison you start in in that mod. Is it like the Van Buren automated prison? Or is it a pre-war prison being used by a post-war faction? Or is it supposed to be a mystery?

To my recollection, the Pan Immunity Virion never made it far enough in development to be administered to anyone but lab animals. They didn’t start testing on humans until after the military had commandeered the project, at which point it was no longer about protecting the populace from...

A lot of it didn’t make sense, Vault-Tec starting the war is stupid, that’s about all I remember. I do remember he raises an interesting point about the difficulty of stacking cars on top of each other in a post-apocalyptic world.

This doesn’t sound like a good idea. The games were meant to be played in the order of 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2. Any other order will just be needlessly confusing.

No, it’s just a fan theory.

First generation mutants are the ones created by the Master, second generation mutants were accidentally created by the Enclave when enslaved Redding workers were exposed to FEV while excavating Mariposa. The Bethesda side of things doesn’t seem to use the generation terminology. New Vegas is...

I think the point of the theory is that all those memories are fake.

No but I can’t remember where I found it.

In reference to the recent Fallout ≠ capitalism controversy

Vault experiments come from Fallout 2 but otherwise I agree.

I was thinking about posting this. It’s refreshing to see an out and out communist like Tim Cain push back against this idea that Fallout is mostly about how much capitalism sucks.

That’s not fair, every faction will inevitably lead to a second apocalypse according to the Master.

Well, just from my experience, it sometimes seems like NCR is the only one you’re “allowed” to support, based on the extrapolations people like to make about you. If you like the Legion you’re a Trumper at best, a Nazi at worst. If you like House it means you want Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos to take...

Nevada is translated too.

What exactly do the attributes have to do with the powers? Is the power more effective with a higher attribute score? I’m skeptical of the idea of having psykers play a significant role in Fallout. I like how Fallout doesn’t have “magic”, unlike some other sci-fi roleplaying universes (Mass...
