FALLOUT S1E8 FULL REACTION
Added 2024-05-31 04:13:32 +0000 UTCComments
The fact that Amazon could make this proves how incompetent the entire team was for Rings of Power & Wheel of Time. In both cases starting with a writing staff that clearly HATED the source material. The writers on this show pushed the lore in an unknown direction but it did fit the world. Unlike Mr LB, I didn't think this show could be made. I figured this was going to be worse than Rings & Wheel. I am so happy to be proven wrong wrong wrong.

2024-06-08 16:44:10 +0000 UTCI've played Fallout 4 too many times. Time for a Fallout 3 play followed by my first play of New Vegas.

2024-06-08 16:29:12 +0000 UTCGreat setup with Lucy thinking the vault light was the warm sun.... because it was. She wasn't in the vault in those memories. Nice touch.

2024-06-08 16:04:14 +0000 UTCmr. house was in this episode btw. did you miss the bit where RobCo was at the vault-tec meeting? or maybe you meant more of mr. house. either way, i'm with you on watching season 2. hopefully it comes out sooner rather than later.

2024-06-04 03:43:07 +0000 UTCGreat series! We start Season 2 next week, right?
Scott Asher
2024-06-02 01:26:13 +0000 UTCOr he didn't feel like it. He was just having a grand 'ole time against one obvious rookie, never under any real threat. At the observatory he was out for blood.

2024-06-01 03:13:10 +0000 UTCHollow-points are the opposite of armor-piercing. The round he's holding before loading into his gun for the showdown with the brotherhood looks like some kind of hardened drill-shaped projectile. In the showdown at Filly we see some loving slow-mo shots of these fat red bomb-shaped projectiles flying into squishy meat-people before they go SPLAT.
Molly McAllister
2024-06-01 03:11:44 +0000 UTCThey're both up on steam for stupid-cheep right now.

2024-05-31 23:08:58 +0000 UTCI'm guessing he didn't have the correct type of ammo on him at the time to exploit that flaw.
Nicholas Johnson
2024-05-31 21:12:39 +0000 UTCJust guessing, but seems like Bethesda intends to make a Mr House victory in the mojave canon🙂

2024-05-31 20:39:42 +0000 UTCI can't wait to see New Vegas🤪😆😃

2024-05-31 20:34:09 +0000 UTCIf i were the son trapped with all the frozen people I'd try and negotiate with the frozen brain: "Hey, you don't mind if i start unplugging all these popsicles, do you?"
David Melo
2024-05-31 20:19:31 +0000 UTCI think Molly is right, the Ghoul used different bullets when he exploited the flaw in the power armor. Some sort of hollow points? 🤔

2024-05-31 20:18:28 +0000 UTCMan those Vertibirds are made of paper mache🤣
gak9319
2024-05-31 20:09:49 +0000 UTCDidn't think of this on the first watch through. If the occasional very large bug can get into that vault. There must be another way out.
Nicholas Johnson
2024-05-31 20:04:20 +0000 UTCThere's a 3 hour video on YouTube by someone named "EpicNate" or something like that. He came to this conclusion 3 years ago and made a very convincing video on how he believes that Vault Tec dropped the first nuke. You should check it out. I'd even like to watch you react to it on here. Edit: It's a 40 minute video, not 3 hours. My bad.
Nicholas Johnson
2024-05-31 19:49:04 +0000 UTCIt's a tradition, vault dwellers leaving the vault. And finding a nuke of some sort and blowing some place up😄
gak9319
2024-05-31 19:28:32 +0000 UTCApparently this is canon, so I guess Vault Tec/Enclave started the war. There are hints in the games alluding to this, but there are also hints that it was the Chinese. Some Fallout fans aren't happy at all about this show😅
gak9319
2024-05-31 19:17:23 +0000 UTCPeople like Bud and Barb seems to have had a big hand shaping much of what Vault Tec did. But the real evil "mastermind" is Dr Stanislaus Braun. The guy torturing people in virtual reality while pretending to be a little girl. He's in the main plot of Fallout 3🙂

2024-05-31 18:55:18 +0000 UTCOne of 'Bud's buds'. Management always overestimates how crucial it's contributions actually are.
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 13:33:08 +0000 UTCIn Filly, he's smiling and laughing while shooting at Maximus. He's having a good time, not taking things seriously. I just don't get why so many insist on seeing a 'Gotcha' there. Feels kinda mean-spirited.
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 13:30:50 +0000 UTCIdk if you caught it but Overseer Betty from the vault was the secretary that introduced Hank to the ghoul back in the flashback
Mark B
2024-05-31 12:03:23 +0000 UTCI mean, ammo types are a thing. Maybe he didn't have any fancy chest-popping rounds on him, in Filly. Either way, I've suspended my disbelief on this beautiful show that I never thought would be possible. I'm not tripping, even if it is a plot hole. Even The Wire got some shitty episodes, neh?
Mike MIchelsen
2024-05-31 11:18:34 +0000 UTCYep. It seems so implausibly and unrealistically dumb until you remember that's exactly what the fossil fuel industry has been doing.
Teth
2024-05-31 07:55:28 +0000 UTCThat still doesn't mean that he had sole custody. That just means he had her when the bombs dropped. It could have been visitation. And if it was visitation that would explain why he ran to get her to safety if she knew what day the bombs were dropped she wouldn't have let him take her for visitation. She could have simply said an emergency has come up I need her to stay here. Especially being that high up in the company to where she is the one who came up with the idea to drop them. Which is why I don't think they dropped the first bombs bcause somebody at her level at vault tech would absolutely know the day they were gonna drop amd would have had a significant advantage when it came to a custody agreement he is a failed actor that was let go doing kids birthday parties while she was on the board at vault tech she would have absolutely gotten controlling custody over the daughter.

2024-05-31 07:12:42 +0000 UTCJust from being a total nerd the New California Republic was founded by decedents of Vault Dwellers from Vault 15. Which lead me to believe that if the show has Vault-Tec portrayed as the real colonizers after the surface was cleared then why didn't they account for the other vaults who already established themselves on the surface. It leads me to believe that Vault-Tec purposely allowed other vaults to be opened sooner than others to test the waters so to speak. If that is the case they inadvertently or otherwise created some of the factions on the surface because some of the factions on the surface are from vaults. Example being the Khans, Vipers and Jackals who are from the same vault that created the New California Republic. I would find it plausible that Vault-Tec allowed some of the vaults to be opened prematurely to further thin out the herd on the surface maybe but, ignorantly not anticipate that said vault wouldn't succeed in creating a thriving society as it was maybe another experiment that was never to succeed. Vault 15 experiment was as stated by the wiki "As part of the social experiment conducted by Vault-Tec, the vault population was ensured to be a mix of radically diverse ideologies in order to gain data on their interactions and potential failure over the 50 years the vault was planned to stay sealed. When the Great War came on October 23, 2077, the dwellers reported to the Vault and entered it. The shelter was sealed. Contact with other Vaults was lost."

2024-05-31 06:43:13 +0000 UTC"Where's my family?" She *DID* take the daughter, After dropping the bombs.
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 06:37:31 +0000 UTCFallout 1, the original isometric view RPG. I forgot that 'Okey Dokey' came from a line in that.
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 06:35:42 +0000 UTCOh FFS!!! Honest Trailers tried to make this 'point' as well, that there is 'allegedly' a discrepancy between the Ghoul encountering Maximus in his power-armor and the Ghoul's fight with the brotherhood in NCR headquarters. They failed to notice, and you have as well, that the Ghoul is Clearly using different projectiles in this encounter than he was back in Filly. But I guess I'm the only one paying attention.
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 06:14:02 +0000 UTCMr. House was in this episode at the Vault-Tec board meeting. I hope we get to see what happened after the events of New Vegas and the aftermath of Shady Sands. Because I am of the opinion that Robert House and New Vegas remained Independent. Leading me to think Hank wants Mr. House to help him reverse cold fusion. Which means Mr. House does have control of Hoover Dam and Helios One. It might even be interesting to see what happened to the Hidden Valley Brotherhood Chapter. I hope the show explains what happened to all the little factions like the Boomers and the Khans. Overall great show

2024-05-31 06:02:57 +0000 UTCI absolutely heard the alimony line but nowhere does it say he got full custody if vault tech owned everything and had their hand in everything then there should have been no way he gets full custody. Even if he did have full custody I find it hard to believe that she wouldn't tell him bcause he would have absolutely let her take the daughter in order for her to survive. And I don't see her not caring about her to not do anything to keep her alive. It is just a theory though which isn't too far fetched if u actually think about it.
Convulsion Gaming
2024-05-31 05:57:01 +0000 UTCdid you not hear the magic word 'Alimony' when the extras were discussing why Cooper was doing kid's birthday parties? He divorced her and got custody of their daughter. Then there's that one line from The ghoul, "Where's my family." We don't see what happened to him while evading the bombs.
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 05:50:25 +0000 UTCYeah it’s great. If you play literally any of the fallouts, you’ll catch way more than you think. I’ve played them all and I am way into this series because of it. Great reaction by the way!
Patrick
2024-05-31 05:49:25 +0000 UTCHank vs. Moldaivr. Yeah, they are Exactly alike in that they are absolutely amoral when it comes to protecting their mission and the way of life for Their people. The difference? Hank is protecting a morally (and for all intents and purposes, Literally) Bankrupt corporation and it's interests in proving it's absurd sociological theories. Moldaivr wants to help basically Everybody that's not directly opposing her principles in trying to help everybody else.
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 05:48:03 +0000 UTCYeahhhhhh as previously stated. I’ve been out of the gaming world since before the original PlayStation came out in 94 😂. This is so damn weird that I was IMMEDIATELY sucked in (no Diddy)
LumpyGrits
2024-05-31 05:33:57 +0000 UTCI actually don't think vault tech dropped the bombs bcause if the wife was that high up in the company she would have absolutely known what day they were gonna drop the bombs and there is no way she lets her daughter go and spend the day with her dad. I believe it was either one of the other investors or and actual outside attack. I think they planned on dropping them but somebody found out about the plan and dropped them first in an effort to win the war b4 vault tech could.
Convulsion Gaming
2024-05-31 05:32:43 +0000 UTCWhat really amazes me, not in any positive way but in a totally flabberghasted sense, but reinforces my feelings on the inability of late-stage capitalists to think in any sort of long-term... They drop the bombs, they get their guaranteed return on investment, they make All of the money. Then what? There is no functioning society anymore (or at least none which recognizes your currency), what good is all that money after your plan goes through?
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 05:21:29 +0000 UTC"Is that true?" Todd Howard was personally involved with production, Everything is Canon. Also, another vote for checking-out Westworld after this, it's made by the same people... ( Minus Todd Howard )
Molly McAllister
2024-05-31 05:09:54 +0000 UTCPerfect timing! Don't know anything about the game and wasn't sure if I would like this show but it's been good from the start.
