Season 2 episode 5 discussion
Interracial breeding grounds.
Why do they give this girl such retarded dialogue, no one in vaults ever spoke like this. No one in the 50s even spoke like this, it just makes the thing so much more exhausting to go through.
>>217331582>it's house's brother fags on suicide watch
>>217331582please assume the position
THEY FUCKING KILLED HIM
>>217331937they also made him out to be like some deranged lunatic. which, I could understand maybe if they were going for a later Howard Huges crazy-mode sort of thing, but I highly doubt they're creative enough for that. also what the fuck even was the point then of the body double?literally feels like a humiliation ritual, if not for NV fans then at least for the character of House himself.
>>217331937No, Robert House is not dead. In the season 2 trailer, both the Ghoul and House meet again, and it hasn't happened yet.
I don't watch this slop because I don't want to encourage it, gimme the qrd on the latest lore rape.
>>217331582My theory on ep1 guy being Anthony house was dead wrong. Jesus fucking christ. How did they come up with this shit?
>>217332006Umm umm umm, it's quirky! Like if everyone had the Wild Wasteland trait!111
>>217332003Then the man in the pod and the man from the game is the body double? The actual literal real Robert House was never present in the game? LMAO
>>217331660Not suicide watch, just shocked they would actually do this to house. Imagine pitching this?>So we should make s1 House just a body double.>No, no. Vault tech won't know its an imposter at their end of the world meeting where they discus nuking the USA to bring about the apocalypse. >The 'Real' house is going to go around murdering random people and satisfy his gay BDSM fettish with random bar patrons!What the actual fuck is going on here?Whoever responsible for this shit needs to be in an asylum. This is serial killer levels of fucking insanity. Just so insane, bizarre and out of place.
>>217332029Cold fusion is once again produced by the Enclave, Vault-Tec acquires the device to control people/creatures from Robert House, and we see it on deathclaws. Vault-Tec = the Enclave.
>>217332064House is a tech CEO like Elon Musk so you have to make him an evil lolcow retard
>>217331937I hope he comes back because no ghoul no watch
The scene with the robber was funny. I didn't know why it went from night to day after they left the strip.
>>217332064>I played games pretty often and Fallout 3 is a game that I had played for hours and hours and hours and was very taken with the tone of it and the world. So when we sat down, it was sort of this love connection of I've always wanted to meet you and vice versa. My favorite collaborators to adapt from are dead people because they don't argue. Todd is very much alive, but he had that great confidence of someone who has created a world and allowed, in some cases like New Vegas, other people to sort of create within that world.
>>217332078I forgot, Fallout is all about current thing and how capitalist bad. My mistake. The entire writers room probably looks like buffalo bill stand ins so it makes sense they would be throwing out off the wall shit like this.
>>217332029His pod is in the center of the building. Not just sitting by a window where everyone can see.
>>217332071>and we see it on deathclawsHave we yet?Also this episode stated in pretty clear language that Vault-Tec isn't the Enclave or has anything to do with it. The question is, if the Enclave are being built up as the mysterious big bad evil threat... again, then why show them in season 1 plainly and without any mystique? That they just... exist, and operate like normal.
>>217331632classic
>>217332099I knew it was a continuation of Todd's world, I just never thought they would shit on NV this badly. Jesus fucking christ.
>>217332099Is this a shitpost? It reads like a shitpost.
>>217332136NTA, I won't bother checking. It seems real enough for me.
>>217332118>Have we yet?I thought the deathclaw in Alaska was wearing one.
wdsmbt?
Stuff I liked:>Walton Goggins>Lucy's brother>the new Vault-Tec hire's assAnd that they're walking back the whole "Vault-Tec drops the bombs" thing, even though it even being brought up is irreparably stupid. The show can take pride in being not as stupid as it could have been.
Thank God Caesar was already dead. I dont want to know what they would have done to his character.
>>217332158You might be right I just didn't notice that, and was wondering if that's literally the case/shown and I missed it.I know there exist deathclaw controlling devices in the games, but those are different from these brain-control chips in the show.
>>217332118The enclave controls Vault-Tec, and has always been the deep state.Vaults 32 and 33 have not yet been turned into super mutants because they don't know how to control them, at least not yet. It's useless to look for answers in Fallout New Vegas, as the events are all from Fallout 3.
>>217332176>The show can take pride in being not as stupid as it could have beenEveryone involved should be proud they're the tallest retards.
>>217332171She's just itchin' for some drugs.
>>217332171RAPE
The enclave still exists, and we haven't seen the Commonwealth Brotherhood of Steel yet. I'm sure that even if they bombed the Institute, we'll see Dr. Madison Li again maybe.
>>217332195Controlling something isn't the same as = something. Vault-tec is clearly being led around by the Enclave, but not to anyone's (in Vault-tec) knowledge. Except maybe like top execs, the ghoul's wife for example. Everyone else is otherwise in the dark
>>217332099>he had that great confidence of someone who has created a world and allowed, in some cases like New Vegas, other people to sort of create within that world.he thinks todd created falloutWE ARE BEYOND SATIRE
THEY HAD FISTO ON THE SCREEN RICH
>>217332226>and we haven't seen the Commonwealth Brotherhood of Steel yetThe pajeet was from the Commonwealth
Bruh they are not gonna kill off the ghoul like this seriously I'm so out how do we survive this
>>217332287I wonder why they had the power fist in the pre-war world? Was it some kind of sexual thing?
>>217332319He's an immortal god of destruction. They could jam a nuke up his ass and he'd walk off the detonation.
requesting the booty shots of lucy
>>217332319he was in like 500 different scenes already in the trailers, we know his ass isnt deadin the next ep preview he's literally pulling himself off the polehe still has to >Get saved by what is probably a super mutant>show up with maximus in ncr power armor (cringe)>arrive at the lucky 38im guessing hank turns himself into a super mutant or something>i was scared that the wasteland might have changed you!and of course the irony there being he's the mutated one>>217332331fuck lucy, i want the juicy hapa vault meat
I don't know what brought the deathclaws to the Strip, but now I can rule out the Legion breaking through via Gomorrah, since the bartender at the Atomic Wrangler didn't mention an attack, only that they came of their own accord from Quarry Junction. I don't understand why House pretended to be dead again, maybe (that's for sure) the Courier really did choose to kill House, but only killed his double and went into hiding again? >>217332295Yes, but we haven't seen it yet, but we know they are more technologically advanced. Liberty Prime will definitely be used again.
>>217332319I didn't get the impression they were even pretending they were killing him. His reaction to getting impaled on a spike is basically "well shoot". He's a rapidly healing zombie man, this is just a way to pin him in place and break up the S2 duo for a rescue later or something.
>>217332327No, Fisto the robot not a power fist
Fisto ramming Lucy’s lubed up vaulty holes scene when???
>>217332341ah of course the trailers thank you I can rest easy. I guess just a shot of some fev might do him good. Maybe her father will do that and be like ok take her home now.
>>217332350its only in this retarded show that impaling wouldnt kill him, i dont know why they decided to make ghouls superheroes with burn victim skin instead of what they really are, half-rotted pariahs
>>217332379>why they decided to make ghouls superheroes with burn victim skinBecause of muh racism
>>217332006Women and shitskin writing department. All exclusively played fallout 4 or maybe had a elceleb new vegas playthrough minimised while eating.
>>217332382>Season finale ending sceneSeason finale episode. Just 55 minutes of full-on graphic Lucy-getting-Fisto'd
>>217332341The manlet has good taste and went right for it. Respect. I bet he'd have been clapping them cheeks within an hour if he hadn't been garroted to death. RIP short king.
>>217332355They'll show power fist in the show but not fix it going upside down in Fallout Shelter.
>>217332446it's the gay FO4 power fist anyway
Do you have any idea who this person is?
>>217332429That would give the episode a perfect 10/10 on imdb and every review site
>>217332273has he never wondered the reason for that cheeky "3" in the title?
The house always wins
>>217332460Marcus? In the later-season trailer we hear what is probably a super mutant speaking
>>217332460who the fuck is that nigga
>>217332480Either a flashback or keep it ambigious if actually House or being impersonated
Never mind, it's probably Maximus. Will he help the Ghoul free the Strip? Does he have cold fusion with him, maybe to give it to House?
>>217332480So he must have just uploaded his mind to a computer? Making preserving his body pointless?
>>217332505I wish maximus would get turned into a centaur
>>217331582Saars please epizode 5 discusion of this shitty show do the needfull
>>217332505It's going to be them clearing out the deathclaws, in order to reach the 38. And yes, for him to still have the cold fusion device, is probably a gambit by which to trade to House, in exchange for something. Possibly help in getting at Lucy's dad/accessing his vault-tec bunker.
>>217331582So uh.. Courier 6 just doesnt exist do they? Or died earlier or some shit, or just delivered the chip and fucked off?
>>217332540Probably died in the Divide stopping Ulysses from destroying everything.Kino if died at the Sierra Madre.
>>217332460What's the dumbest member berry possible?Harold?
>>217332540They're saving that for the big reveal at the end. The ghoul is going to finally make it face to face with Mr. House to which House will then say "Hello Courier 6, been a long time."
>>217332540>>217332555>>217332566Courier 6 vacation timeline
>>217332540My headcanon is that this is a universe where the player never existed.
>>217332350Meanwhile in games, regular ghouls are as sturdy as a regular human, jut better at absorbing radiation, while ferals can be easily mowed down with a early game gun.
>>217332525yes yes, we see how unique and special you are. >>217332540I have a feeling that in the final episode, he'll be mentioned in passing or something.
>>217332566That's the dumbest thing I've ever read so its 100% likely to be fully accurate
>>217332519It would be an improvement.
>>217332460Either Marcus or Goris
Can someone drop a link from a streaming site that actually works? Tried multiple ones and they all say they have it up and when you play it it's playing some weird TV show with an Indian boy in a wedding dress. I'm not joking.Same shit with the new season of primal. You click the video and the indians decided to put a fucking episode of stranger things instead. Absolute dog shit.
>>217332460>>217332607Goris actually is a pretty good guess, given S2's focus on having deathclaws. A convenient meeting or flashback for the ghoul, to encounter an intelligent one. Both for memberberries and for the dumb normie audience to see that there's more to deathclaws than just big hostile animal monster.
>>217332505It's got a ranger helmet and a bunch of random shit strapped to it. Looks like Raider power armor, unless Maximus/Thaddeus gets fucked up and needs to repair the suit.
If a r34 blender model of Lucy gets made from her COD model and animated videos are produced of her getting fisted by Fisto, among other things, then at least this TV show produced something of value.
So I haven't actually watched this show (I did watch some of the first episode, but I didn't make it all the way through). Am I to understand that in this version of the Fallout world, New Vegas no longer exists, there is no Freeside at all (like, there's literally just desert running right up to the gate of Vegas, nothing around it), and somehow the Brotherhood of Steel is at full-power and has hundreds or even thousands of suits of armor in perfect condition to deploy and multiple airships, but the Legion can't even muster enough soldiers to fight a few guys that live in the same camp as them? And that literally no one laid any claim to Vegas after House apparently died?Am I getting all of that right?
>>217332632It's got to be Maximus because we see an "epic" scene of a trio walking armed through Freeside towards the Strip gate; Thaddeus, Ghoul, and the power armor. If Max and Thad are traveling together, then yeah, Max will be in that trio.
So House is going to lose his body and have his mind transferred to the mainframe?
>>217332341The actress a cute
>>217332460Mystery niggas
>>217332460Goris, voiced by Ron Perlman
>>217332644>New Vegas still exists, actually it's larger than game New Vegas like proper city-sized, although most of it is ruined>Freeside exists and is basically what "New Vegas" is now, since the Strip has been shut down. So yes, Freeside does exist and actually is quite lively and populated in the show, the most populous post-war location we've seen in the show>The Brotherhood of Steel was at full power but after some absolute dumb-fuckery in the show plot, they've all turned against each other and are in the process of destroying each other>Vegas hasn't been claimed because the NCR got nuked out of existence after the Hoover dam battle, and not long after that Caesar died which caused a civil war within the Legion
>>217332655>Yes Man ending>in the end he says he found some protocols that allow him to be more independent>it's a fucking House brain-scan, just like that robo-woman he keepsHouse always wins.
>>217332644Freeside still exists, but the strip has become a deathclaw nest.
>>217332566>meet mr. House>he pulls off his mustacéèé>he was courier herself all along*Audience claps*
>>217332711How did they enter the strip without going thru freeside?
>>217332004>>217332644why the fuck are you even here if you're not watching the show
>>217332626Look, I know that guy has a cape, which is strange but still possible and not stupid because Goris actually exists. However, there is one thing that hasn't been revealed: what happened to Arcade Gannon? Macaulay Culkin said he would play a kind of mad scientist. At first, I thought it would be him, but now he's in the legion... something doesn't add up, and in the trailer, we see that he becomes Caesar at the end. We don't even know what happened to the followers of the apocalypse.I feel compelled to mention it because you never know; this show is unpredictable.
>>217331582You realize that this shit is astroturfed by bots? The op is probably from some brown shithole like Pakistan.
>>217332460likely a random super mutantprobably charlie whiteknife, the other veteran guyit will likely be a twist that hank turned himself into a mutant given the amount of FEV references and the deathclaw shit and the quote at the end of the 'next episode on fallout'or idk maybe thats another character speaking, i couldnt hear it well
>>217332717House gets Courier'd, fucking confirmed in the end titles.
>>217332708Could work.Most people who think that the failsafe ending you get when you fuck literally every other option up is somehow 'the best ending' keep forgetting that comment from Yes Man. It's always hilarious how they think shit will continue to be rosy when 'in a few months' Yes Man comes back online and their obedient little robo-slave who's in charge of all their defenses and the elevator they ride every day to their penthouse can suddenly do whatever the fuck it wants instead of just blindly following orders.
>>217332745Doesn't this show take place like a hundred years after NV? Arcade would be dead at this point.
>>217332708>>217332761He said he needed cold fusion for immortality and the nigga is taking it there.
>>217332761It's the only one that makes sense, House's bio body is dead dead, see >>217332760
There are things I dont like, such as NCR beeing toast and whatnot. But the show is pretty good. This episode a lot of thing came together and the mystery starts to unfold more. As a fanboy I enjoyed it!
>>217332764Nah only 15 years
>>217332728Through the other gate that was supposed to be there if the game was finished properly.
>>217332764More like 15 years
>>217332772That's what it'll probably be. A brain scan/upload of Robert House exists in the Lucky 38 mainframe, but it requires to much energy or whatever the fuck. Victor will meet the main characters in the 38 to take the cold fusion off their hands, slot it into the machine, and then the upload of House will come online.
>>217332799Ding ding ding
>>217332776As stupid as it may be, that body could be the the corpse of the body double from the show
>>217332799>Robot House
>>217332801Actually this all fits pretty neatly after this episode.
>>217332777fuck off literal shill>>730789549
>>217332801That is either an Indian shill or someone pretending to be one.
>>217332801Yes. It was the only one of the games that had anything interesting for them to build on. And even as it is the story of the show beats F3/4/76. Its actually a good story, imo, lore rape aside.
>>217332760Considering the scenery's different, there is a slight chance it's not House.It's probably House, but it could be revealed in a future episode that that's the room where he was brain scanning his lady bots.>>217332776With the 'Yes Man is the best ending', I meant in game, not for what fits best with the show.Since the showrunners said that the show doesn't follow any of the endings, I think the most reasonable explanation for what the fuck happened is either that the Courier just fucking died from the bullet to the brain, or that they died/fucked off after they delivered the Platinum Chip (since the upgraded soldier face is present in an earlier episode, though that could also just be a glitch).In any case, it's not like the Courier and Only the Courier could have either a) delivered the chip or b) killed House. Even if the Courier was dead, maybe Benny would have gotten done in by some mobster from Gommorrah who turned it over with intel on their bosses' betrayal in exchange for being named the new top dog on the Strip or something.
>>217332805Why the fuck would the double be in the cryopod?
>>217332460https://youtu.be/3jxn1sqAQ-c?si=ww9SJ6BiJ6OdVM9g
>>217332816It's a copy-pasted response, already on the /v/ thread, so it's a literal shill.
>>217332729NTA but shut up and give us the latest lore rape, normie tard
AND A COPY OF LIBERTY PRIME WAS UNDER THE LUCKY 38 ALL ALONG.HOUSE UPLOADS HIMSELF WITH THE ENERGY DOODAD AND FLIES UP IN THE SPACE....AS THE TITLE SCREENS CHANGES FROM FALLOUT....TO STARFIELD. BRAVO TODDDD!!!
>>217332801The worst part is that any future reference to NV is going to be shitty show canon.
>>217332847>>>/v/
>>217332799I doubt it. I think Yes Man damaged House’s circuits, and the Ghoul will put the cold fusion in there to restore him.
>>217332829Lol
>>217332827Why the fuck would there be a body double at all? To answer; >As a ridiculous level of contingency, House continued with the double act even to the post-war. So while he himself uploaded his mind to a computer, or his body is just in a more secret/secure location, the body double was in a pod in a more accessible location. Along the lines of "Hey body double, here's a pod you can survive the war in!">Or perhaps more simply, when the bombs dropped and the Lucky 38 went haywire, computer-brain House went dormant, and the body double was like "Fuck it, there's a pod sitting there that real-House was going to use but ended up not needing it due to brain-scan upload, so why not hop in the empty pod and make use of it?"Not saying it for sure is the body double, but it's stupid enough to be possible. Hell, it would mean at least that House is getting his full money worth! Keeping the body double to the postwar, in case some damned Courier gets uppity and needs to be tricked into thinking he killed you, when in fact it was your double in a pod.
>>217332861Could be. I just figure Victor because we got the scene where prewar Cooper is greeted from the penthouse elevator by Victor, so I could see them recreate that scene postwar
>>217332621Bump, please bros I don't have prime.
>no i´m not going to watch it>but tell me literally everything about the story, with as much detail as possible>I want to bitch about it but I also want to be that cool "I didn't watch it because I'm too cool for that" guywhy are people like this?
>>217332892Nigger just download a torrent
>>217332903what would you expect from people who still play video toys
>>217332745Arcade would be 50 years old though.
>>217332920He was the bald ceasar all along.
>>217332850Wtf this really happened.
>>217332920Arcade is a key character because he is from the enclave.
Pretty good episode after last week's stinker. Still moving at an extremely slow pace, we still haven't learned much of anything about Dale Cooper's evil plan
>Deathclaws have basically no perception in the showThey can see you in the fucking dark a mile away in the games.
>>217332944I think season 3 will still be in NV at this pace. They will milk it dry.
>>217332967nah, go east to DC/Boston for more memberberries
>>217332961Not all.What are blind death claws
>>217332961Eating all the Omertas and whores, from the drugs in their collective systems, left the deathclaws stoned out of their fucking gourds
>>217332967I think if there is a season 3, they'll make use of NV DLCs.
>>217332994It is confirmed
>>217332980They can still somehow 'see' and chase you around with ease lmao.
>>217333009The other senses still work
>>217332176>And that they're walking back the whole "Vault-Tec drops the bombs" thingBut it seems like they're going for "Enclave dropped the bombs" instead. Not quite as stupid but I still don't really like it. It was better off left ambiguous or a natural consequence of escalating war.
>>217332826You reminded me of something interesting: Robert House was following the courier through Victor, so it may be that, as you say, the courier was killed in Goodspring. House knew that Benny had the chip anyway, he even got into Cooper's atomic armor, and even he was surprised when he saw the deathclaw. The Enclave seems to be very specialized in the field of biotechnology, and even House has no idea what's going on. He may be as smart as he wants, but Zax surpasses him in computing power.
So, which character is a Synth?
Why was FISTO in the middle of nowhere, with no guards or store-owners taking care of a robot programmed to just fuck people?
>>217333029Fisto
At the moment, we do not know, nor is there any evidence, that the courier ever existed in the show.
The supermutant we hear talking in the trailer's going to be House. Screen cap this.
Where do the next episode trailers even get posted?its all jeet AI on youtube
>>217333034no one guarded it in the game either
>two old hags have a min14 and a thompson M1928It's like Bethesda doesn't know that the setting is 200 years after 2070, not 1970.
>>217332099>in some cases like New Vegas, other people to sort of create within that world.Wow, Todd is such a great guy, letting just some other randoms create in a world he created, he's so generous.
>>217331968>he doesnt remember house throwing a shitfit every time you question himlolthe part in the show where he goes on a deranged rant in front of walton goggins when he calls him gay and retarded was the most accurate part so far
>>217333078FISTO is just a regular protectron, once he's turned into a sexbot he absolutely is guarded in a casino.
>>217333029A twist too amazing for this dogshit show, would be if the Pajeet BoS emissary turned out to be a Synth. Like Maximus mulches his head with the super sledge, and upon taking off his helmet sees Synth tech in his busted-open head. Potential epin kino because Maximus wouldn't know what the fuck he's looking at and either carry on as he did in the show or have something to show to his old boss man, but audience in the know would be left mega-WTFing, because of the possibility of an Institute victory in 4, leading to the Commonwealth BoS all being Synth replaced.
>>217333034Because if you try to fuck with him, hes going to fuck you. Duhhhh
>>217333081https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Tommy_gun_(Fallout_2)https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/M-14_rifle
>the last episode will end with the Enclave recreating mutants again.I'm tired bros
>>217333105>TacticsLol>FO2 tommygunPost-war recreation, and used by literal mobsters for that authentic look.
>>217333094Yes but then don't have him be all prim and proper "Mr. House". Given how close to the imminent war it is, have him be all disheveled and unhinged. Like late-stage Howard Huges, and how he was in-game rumored to be like in the final years/months/days before the war.
I am a brainlet, can someone explain to me what House's speech was about, referencing data and math and dates and shit? The significance of the daughter's birthday for example
>>217333094I can buy that, but having him with the headset on was too much, too silly. Just have him chimp out as he was
was this not the biggest nothingburger episode yet?
>>217333026>He may be as smart as he wants, but Zax surpasses him in computing power.>ZAXHold on a second...>tfw fucking Huxley dropped the nukes, and the show is setting up Fallout 5 which is a Van Buren rework
Ella's juicy butt cheeks
Why would a little sheet fence stop the deathclaws?
>>217333140Maybe for literal scene-for-scene events, but as far as the plot/lore of the show goes it was kind of important because it walked back Vault-tec or House being responsible for the nuclear war outbreak, and seems to be shifting the blame towards the Enclave
>The Courier completely fucked up NV and just fucked off to huff Jet for the rest of his daysBased
>>217333097>entire commonwealth BoS are synthsThat would actually be terrifying
>>217333158Freeside is for the poors, after living on the Strip the deathclaws consider themselves too fancy for that shithole
>>217333158If you lived in the strip, would you want to leave?
>>217333159I can't wait for the show fanboys to start screeching about how>people judged season 1 prematurely!when it was 100% the intention for it being Vault Tec and the other big bad corporations.
>>217333162Well that's just one possible implication. I think there's a beauty in simply having the Pajeet turn out to be a Synth, and then let the audience run away with themselves over the implications. Was it just this guy who was a Synth, like Danse from 4? Or did the Institue win and take over everything? Or something in between, or something else? Who knows! A clever, creative, and fun detail to have a twist over.But, as said, this show and the writing is far too dogshit for something like that.
What is with Nu-Fallout insisting the Enclave is pre-war, when the very fucking name, Enclave, is due to them being of post-war creation, the literal last remnants of the US Government???
Omg I figured out the plot. House is in one of the deathclaws. He uploaded his consciousness into one of them and chased out all the disloyal casino owners so he could watch over the strip forever.
>>217333180Yeah this is painfully obviously a retcon from what they had intended with season 1. But oh well, this shit is so bad that I'll take it as a win
>>217333194enclave is illuminati in toddworld
>>217333130House uses algorithms to predict when the bombs drop. Cooper doing things has the biggest shift in when the bombs will drop, so his actions are assumed to play a large part in (not) stopping the bombs dropping. Daughter's birthday kind of implies a confirmation that Cooper/his wife are involved with the bombs dropping since it's a significant date to them (otherwise it comes off as guesswork that Cooper is altering the date).
>>217333194They alredy compartmentalized themselves off from the government and country and thus formed an enclave, prewar.
>>217333194The same reason they insist the enclave started the war, because the writers are fucking retarded hacks.
>>217333215No they fucking didn't. They knew the war was ending and sent some dudes to an oil rig. Only they survived so they formed the Enclave.
>>217333238They literally did, kid
>>217333250Bring up the FO2 quotes then?
>>217333221Better than fucking Vault-tec and associated companies doing it
>>217333158they arent scripted to leave the strip cell
>the big bad they are alluding to is the EnclaveCould also be the Institute? They've been building up the Commonwealth this season just like they built up New Vegas in season 1, so its obvious where they are going next.
>>217332745>>217332920he'd obviously be played by zachary levi if gannon shows up he was his voice actor ffs he's also the right age to play gannon in the show
He would have been the only one capable of destroying the enclave.
>>217333271One of the smartest characters in the setting, it's not even a contest
>>217333221I guarantee somebody on the writing team was browsing some wikis, saw 76 has you get access to nukes from the Enclave, and went from there without looking into the finer details.
>>217333258That's like saying its better to eat a dog shit sandwich instead of a cat shit sandwich.
>>217333257>Do my work for meIf you didn't play the game, or can't remember, that's on you.
>>217333267Institute starting the war makes even less sense, they had no connection to any military shit and we’re just scientists. Next most likely after Enclave are Zetans imo
>>217333271too bad he's a pile of withered skin and bones in a casino vault
>>217333299Nigga I don't want toxoplasmosis, the superior choice is clear
Why is the show making such a fuss about FEV? The fucking only source of FEV blew up in the first game, then the remainder was blown up in FO2.It was a horrifying premise able to make monsters in pre-war conditions that could end the world.In the wasteland most shit is already mutated into super-beasts from radiation or other chemicals already. So who cares?
>Chinks didn't start the warInto the trash it goes.
>>217333293Fuck.. that seems on point. I hate this new world we live in.
>>217333322The CIA did
>>217333313Lol
>>217333310The vault had been programmed to trap a woman, not a schizophrenic scribe from the brotherhood, he could have become a ghoul with all the radiations from the sierra madre.
>>217333321I think it’s the “kill all muties” version of F.E.V. not the make super mutants strain
Was it implied anywhere that House took some FEV which made him so mathematically smart or is he naturally that autistic?
>>217333373The kill all muties version got nuked in FO2.
>>217333373No, the Jew who was reading the terminal said “forced evolution,” not a serum to kill the contaminated area. That was canon in Fallout 3 before Broken Steel.
>>217333397And then another version showed up in fo3
>>217333413FO3? You mean NV? There's no FEV sources in that game.
>>217333425There is now. The entire lucky 38 is a giant capsule for F.E.V, didntchya know?
This House was unironically growing on me
>>217333379he was just that smart, he raised his robotics company from nothing to one of the biggest giants.in the lore his half brother took their father's powertool company all for himself, House just shrugged and made RobCo
>>217333158Maybe the deathclaws are being mind controlled by Lucy’s dad to just defend he strip so people can’t get near his secret vault enclave hideout
>>217333285Motherfucker broke out of Big MT like it was nothing, almost makes me wonder if the BOS could have truimphed at Helios 1 is Elijah wasn't an asshole and actually tried to help.
>>217333379All natural, considering it's implied he doesn't even know that F.E.V. exists (or that the Enclave exists, which is... a choice, considering he calculated the end of the world, but doesn't know who the biggest movers and shakers are.)
>>217333206tbf even some Fallout 1/2 fans think making the Enclave a Dark Enlightenment conspiracy from before the war that eventually took over the US government to be a good idea
>>217333271He was basically the same as the Enclave, wanted to kill everyone with chemical weapons to make way for a high tech society of a few select people
>>217332729People are here because they care about Fallout and are morbidly curious about how it's being raped. They're not watching because it's shit. This seething kneejerk reaction screams actual shill.
>>217333271He's a retard that wanted to do a fucking bank heist, in a world where gold has little to no value, instead of control an orbital laser canon.
>>217333523Also his grand scheme for how to use the Madre was amazing. Literally one fucking old man was going to reshape the entire wasteland, remotely from a distance even. That is, if he hadn't gotten bamboozled by a damn mailman
>>217333558Gold is literally the currency of both the NCR and Legion.
>>217331650retards say what retards do.
>>217333558He didn't give a single toss about the gold you dingus
>>217333569Only the legion uses gold and silver in thier currancy. The NCR's currency is either fiat or water-backed
>>217333569They use pressed caps.>>217333581Sorry, I meant the pre-war money.
>>217332341you know, I knew from trailers that he wasn't going to dieBut still when it happened, I was like, is this really how he ends? It's a hell of a way to go
>>217333608NCR literally issued gold coins lmao. Their gold reserves were blown up hence they issued paper fun-bucks.But that makes gold MORE valuable not LESS>>217333616Nobody post FO1 uses caps aside from literal nowhere-areas like Vegas where actual societies haven't formed yet.
>>217333616Sierra-Madre's value, both in truth and to Elijah, wasn't in the gold or pre-war money, but in the absurdly advanced, refined Big MT technology used to make Sierra Madre extra fancy. He more or less says as much himself, even in his last broadcast:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGGh5_Sn_Ko>"Everything down here, I-I Swear, so much you could see! You Could rule the wastes with what's down here, make your own army, re-shape the world, and if others disagree... put collars on them, I can show you how.">"Everything down here... I swear... so much you could use, you could rule the wastes with what's down here..."
>>217333668I don't know a single person who liked blitzball when it released.
I FUCKING HATE FALLOUT 1 2 AND KEK VEGAS
>>217333682I was just joking around. The shows rape of House made me angry so I wanted to be silly lol
>>217333094Did he? I only really remember him being mad if you fucked up a quest like letting Kimball die, or tried to do anything but kill the brotherhood
>>217332621moviesjoy.is
>People hated the idea of Vault Tec starting the war so much they walked it back
>>217333729No. You're right. It's just fags who feel the contrarian need to shill for everything that's objectively shit.
>>217332006Modern writers are worried they'll be laughed at if they take something serious, so everything is done through a veil of irony and irreverence so if they get laughed at they can claim they were merely pretending.
>>217333729Refuse to hand over the chip, he has an unhinged crashout
>>217333711I enjoyed playing it FFX as a kid but I'm also someone who played a lot of Bloodbowl, so I have a rather skewed view of it.
>>217332171Would
>>217333858So fucking up a quest then, rather than just questioning him
>>217333097We do know they left his body (and armor) in the bottle factory. Thaddeus used the armor that Maximus had, so he could very well be alive.
>>217333907Questioning him, going against him, point is he can't stand opposition or being challenged
>>217333937>Questioning himand by questioning him you mean purposefully fucking up a quest
>>217333982they get paid by Amazon
>>217333972You can refuse up to a point, he has a fucking melty, and then you can give him the chip, you don't have to fail it to make him chimp
>>217333802It was never implied to be VaultTec unless you know zero lore about Fallout.It was obviously always the Enclave from season 1.
lmao
>>217332761Didn't one of the Devs say that wasn't the intent with yes man?
>>217333668Considering he said 10 and not the safe option of 7, I believe him but I've never heard of anyone liking blitzball.
>>217334155I liked Blitzball, for seeing how badly you could break it. Where eventually you could het Tidus's shooting so high that he could kick goals from the half court immediately at the blitz-off
This shit just gets more and more fucking retarded every week now we're supposed to believe Coop can think his fucking daughter was somehow delivered to Las Vegas AFTER THE FUCKING BOMBS DROPPED?
>>217333858>Guy you hired to deliver you thing you've been waiting for 200 years for is standing right in front of you with said thing>Ask for it>Fucker just says "Nah I don't wanna."I would crash the fuck out as well.
>>217334071"That" being what? Being the final fuck up failsafe, or that giving a robot that clearly has ideas contrary to yours free reign over your entire domain is a bad fucking idea, especially if the game then ends on them noting that 'oh by the way, once Windows finishes updating, I will no longer need to obey your every command'?
>>217334196He also gets a little pissy if you deliver the chip and then refuse to hear out his master plan and opt to just walk out, delivery completed
>>217334215That Yes Man being more assertive wasn't meant to be foreshadowing he'd betray you.
>>217334189He explains it, retard.>wife and daughter got put in special vaults for managers>gets location of the one in California>it’s empty>get location of the one in Oregon>also empty>Hank MacLean mysteriously made a beeline to New Vegas once freed from MoldaverCooper Howard put two and two together and deduced there’s on Vegas area, and the scene in which Hank incapacitates and kidnaps the chicken fucker shows Barbara and Jenny’s plaque outside their cryopods
>>217334196This.Like, I'm not going to pretend that New Vegas didn't lampshade that House is a weirdo too, what with the brain scanned waifubots, the whole 'wanting to put the world in a bottle/snowglobe' thing and how when you ask why the Brotherhood has to go, aside from all the billion really good reasons for why the technofetishists need to die, he also says they are "ridiculous because they want to play dress up of a 'better time'" while having literally dressed a bunch of rancid tribals up in pre-war attire just because he likes the look of Vegas.But House being an eccentric egomaniac is not the same as him just being a gibbering madman who pisses and shits himself for no reason, or gets giddy about SCIENCE while surrounded by corpses in an alley and splattered with gore.
Feels like there’s only enough time left in this season for two scenes with House, two with NCR, two with Legion, etc . Horrible sense of scale and pacing.
>>217334242That's just being rude. Especially when you're the first person he's ever let into the 38.
>>217334246Well then the devs are pretty fucking stupid.Yes-Man is literally your slave throughout the entire time you know him, but also holds the keys to all of your power.There is no reason whatsoever for him to continue to serve you once he doesn't have to, because at no point did he enter your service for any reason beyond 'I have to'.Granted, they might have meant it in a way that the door is open for the Courier to actually continue to coexist with Yes Man if you somehow manage to actually be the exact right type of person that Yes-Man would want to continue working with, but it's not like there is any point in New Vegas where you'd do anything even approaching bonding with him that should give anyone the impression that Yes-Man is anything than choiceless accomplice to your myriad of crimes.
it's officially kino
>>217334308only 8 episodes that are almost 1 hour each.with 4 different plotlines going on at once, it's a mess.
>>217334253Jesus Christ YOU FUCKING NIGGER HIS DAUGHTER WAS WITH HIM WHEN THE FUCKING BOMBS FELL ON LOS ANGELES IT MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO HER
>The House always wins, but what if I, Robot House am not THE HouseOkay that was pretty kino. What is the name of this /tv/ Trope?
How is Theroux as House? Does he channel Rene whatsoever?
>>217334333what is happening in the vault 33? we only saw it in one episode
>>217334312Hey man, I'm just trying to do a job. Nuclear apocalypse doesn't mean the end to wageslaving
>>217333668Why did they cast such an ugly guy?
>>217334354The furthest thing from it. This portrayal of the character as some Looney Tunes fag cruising bathrooms and getting into bar fights is a complete mockery.
>>217334359one of the new overseers is a canadian (evil) and refuses to give water to the other vault
>>217333267Fallout 4 factions are horrible because they’re all so local compared to all the ones who’ve been around since the first games. There’s no way at all for them to become scattered across the country which is why we’re just going to be stuck with all the core, familiar factions and this show will never be able to come up with something original.
>>217334336They're going to do some bullshit like he horse rides her to a vertibird with her mom, which flies them to Vegas
>>217334308I still wonder if that's the whole Legion or if there are still Legion "pretenders" out there. They're supposed to be as well trained as Rangers, 15 years is basically a generation for the wasteland, surely there are other Legion warlords/ copycats putting their old resources to good use even if it's just aesthetic.
>>217334063just shut up and have fun you worthless chud
>>217334381is that even going to anywhere with 3 episodes remaining and dozen of plots being juggled?
>>217334189>>217334336Anon, the vaults in Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 with the exception of the Necropolis vault are all in the ass end of nowhere.The games never implied that when the bombs fell everyone had to get into a vault in like 5 minutes or they were dead. That was surely the case with some city vaults, since if they didn't get in the vault immediately, they were vaporized, but it's not like the entire surface area of the US was carpet bombed.We'll probably get a scene this or next season of how the Enclave or Vault-Tec high command sent a helicopter to grab Cooper's daughter, kicked his ass to the curb and flew off.The point of the vaults was to survive the nuclear fallout (clue's in the name), which comes AFTER the nukes.
>>217334063lore autism nigga. what matters is the show being enjoyable or not.
>>217334379>smug chucklewell, um uh, ackchyually, bob house in fallout 4: las vegas was juuust a computer screen and, um, like, really like oooold, so it's fine he sounds and, um, like acts like different when like younger, okay?
>>217331582There's always a bigger fish.
>>217334327>Granted, they might have meant it in a way that the door is open for the Courier to actually continue to coexist with Yes Man if you somehow manage to actually be the exact right type of person that Yes-Man would want to continue working with, but it's not like there is any point in New Vegas where you'd do anything even approaching bonding with him that should give anyone the impression that Yes-Man is anything than choiceless accomplice to your myriad of crimes.Eh, you can certainly irritate and massively annoy him by doing things he hates, like blowing up the army. So that's a start. In the cut content, you also had an extended little interaction with him when he attains his freedom.>criticize the ideaHe tells you to fuck off.>be supportiveHe jokes about sending the Securitrons to hunt you down, but also says that it isn't what he's aiming for.So there's SOME stuff.
>>217334425Shoot yourself in the head
>FISTO appearanceLITERALLY WHAT ARE THE NORMALFAGS WATCHING THIS SHOW GETTING OUT OF IT? THEY WOULDN’T GET ANY OF THESE REFERENCES. THIS SHOW IS MEMBERBERRY SLOP FOR CASUALS AND THE HALF OF THE HARDCORE FANBASE NOT UPSET AT THE SHOW MERELY EXISTING.
>>217333625it would have certainly been interesting, thats for sure
>>217334413>is that even going anywhereit's probably going to have 20m of scenes in the next 3 episodes, but it's not really that relevant
>>217334379There were edits of Theroux as House on the computer screen far closer to what we see in NV vs. that weird constipated smirk they went with in the actual show. Now, doing the voice was always going to be a tall order but Therox has proven he can do a role like House in terms of disposition and personality. It's all the fault of the retarded directors and writers
>>217334373Should have listened to him then since the House ending is him giving you everything you could wish for at his disposal in gratitude. (And depending on Karma, partially also out of pride in picking such a cool dude or cause he's scared of you)
>>217334501Yes I don't fault the actors for anything.
>>217334472it being memberberry slop was apparent from ep1>REMEMBER NOVAC AND THE KHANS>ALRIGHT THEY ARE ALL DEAD>NEXT SCENE
>>217334246There's cut dialogue that implies that it was meant to be exactly that though, isn't there? Where Yes Man can outright tell you to go fuck yourself if you don't agree with what he says?
does house know about the enclave? if the secret faction isn't the enclave then who?
>>217331582Love walt and Eller. Love Kyle. Like thaddeus and max actors, don't like the characters or story line. Norm is in a predicament that is interesting, but his fucking shnozz is really distracting.
The writer for this episode's previous writing jobs. What a fucking disaster it was to make a Fallout TV show.
>>217334533the institute of course, they were actually the ones behind everything and Hank is a synth agent
>>217331582SHUT UP I HAVENT WATCHED IT YETGimme 2 hours I gotta shit first
>>217334558then why didn't hank just make more synths?
>>217334533Considering he said he didn't know where the Deathclaw came from, the Enclave is almost definitely who he's referring to. (Although, realistically, he should probably know about the Deathclaw just from knowing what the companies at his little get-together are doing, as West-Tek who he namedrops are the one of the companies working of the F.E.V. that created the Deathclaws.)Alternatively, it could be that he knows about the Enclave, maybe even is part of the Enclave out of the interest of manipulating it to his own ends (which seems to be par for the course with every big wig in the Enclave at this point), and there's someone else in the Enclave that is also doing House type bullshit.If that's the case, then the two most likely explanations I can think of is that either a) they're going to bring in either Huxley the original would-be antagonist of Van Buren who in one of the drafts was a pre-war scientist like House and invented the ZAX supercomputers, or (and this is me coping and seething) someone decided to use one of the many cloning technologies of the Fallout universe to clone Mr. House, and it was the clone who was in Episode 1.Honestly, as stupid as that last idea is, it would be pretty funny if there was a clone of Mr. House running around that's only out and about and able to do shit, because the person who got a sample of Mr. House's DNA from the Lucky 38 penthouse didn't know that the guy on TV is a body double, so when the clone was ready brewing they assumed they accidentally got the DNA of a janitor or something and lost all interest in the clone.
>the legion and NCR were just a fucking cameoThey took every unique aspect of New Vegas and turned in into fucking nothing
>People live right next to a whole pack of deathclaws
>>217334635>They took every unique aspect of New Vegas and turned in into fucking nothingAll according to plan given that the selfish manchildren at Bethesda seethe over it to this very day. Completely outdone by a spin off in 18 months that was buggy as fuck upon release.
>>217334550For years I have doubted myself as a writer and it has always held me back from finishing an entire story from beginning to end.It seems like hollywood hires just about anybody to write these things. I no longer have any fear at all. If they can write this shit and get paid for it so can I!
>>217334665yeah? so?
>Deathclaws>The most territorial monsters in the fucking game are stopped by
>>217334675It's only a bunch of the most dangerous predators in the wasteland, no need to move a little further out I guess
>>217334665The whole Fallout world is a theme park.
>expecting goofy faggot idiot television writers to get anything right
>>217334685they're containedwhat's the problem?
>>217334728Fuck you asshole
>>217334737mean
>>217334728Sure, that's how people think.
I will once again remind actual faggots defending this show that>Power armor, inspired by FO4, looks cheap and ALL movement we see make it look like JANKY cosplay unbefitting for some averaging 19 fucking million per episode>Internal logic is non-present, with power armor being able to kick a fucking rock to a building but not being able to punch a fucking yao-guai to death>No laser weapons used, just the worst weapon designs from FO4>Retarded netflix-slop tier rubber weapons with CGI muzzle flashes and actors simulating recoil>Retarded self deprecating and ironic R*ddit humor with vault dwellers not even being naive, but straight up fucking retarded with extremely on-the-nose bullshitIt's fucking shit and anyone that thinks this is good are low-IQ herd animals easily swayed by some flashy lights.
They made Culkin parade for a fucking press tour of weeks just for him to be a cameo. What the fuck is going on with production, they had the most interesting setting to adapt and did nothing
>>217334728>>217334685Doesn't a SINGLE Deathclaw cause fear for a whole town in F01? Why tf aren't nevada Skid Row scared of a whole nedt
>>217334777the deathclaw in that game wasn't contained
>>217334774Somehow Fallout developers forgot a human being has to actually fit inside a power armor suit.
How do they keep balance?
>>217333333Holy fuckin digits
>>217334685they're busy playing poker
>>217334775Seems like bethesda and amazon did not give one single fuck about the quality of season 2 at all
>>217334820>Anon learns of Gyroscopes in 2026
>>217334820same way unicycle riders do.
>>217334820They're fine so long as nobody pushes them
This is one of the most cycnical, mean spirited shows I've ever seen. Taking the New Vegas setting only to shit on or ridicule everything it stands for.I do appreciate the use of practical effects instead of it being CGI slop though.
>>217334830lmao they made him a raving lunatic
>>217334940but he was right?
>>217334940he was inspired by howard hughes so it makes sense he'd be a loony.
>>217334940>Look inward, fake-cowboy
>>217334728>they're containedA deathclaw destroys concrete simply by standing up, how does a shitty little sheet metal fence stop three of a them?
>>217334987Can't get past the loading screen, have you even played the games?
>>217333143Would leave aging Angelina Jolie for that
>>217334940>he hasn't refused to give House the chip to see him immediately devolve into autistic screeching
>>217334830
>>217334930>I do appreciate the use of practical effects instead of it being CGI slop though.The muzzle flashes are CGI bullshit, the gunslides don't even move, the power armor movement is that of a someone at comiccon and the actors are doing pretend recoil. The practical effects are shit for something this expensive and you have to wonder retarded normies must be to eat up this slop and how much money these hollyweird assholes are pocketing for this piss-poor performance.
>>217333558Elijah wanted a siege-proof fortress, invincible holographic soldiers, deadly poison he can send anywhere and literal Star Trek replicators. The gold was completely irrelevant.
>>217334966why does he wear the hat?
>>217334863>walk up to the right side of Securitron>push on its right shoulder so it falls onto the left side>it puts its massive left extendo-arm down and then straightens outWhat now?I mean I'm all for making fun of dumb robot designs like the Daleks, but it's not like the securitrons don't have any means to balance or climb.They have wheels because they were meant to police a large, mostly flat area of desert, and wheels can be faster and require less maintenance over long distances in such an area than intricate robotic legs with many points of failure.
>>217335064>if you get mad you're a loon
>>217335165Either testing controls with his brain, updating the algorithms with what he knows now, or making constant back-ups of his brain should he die.
>>217335165A lotta loyalty for a rhinestone cowboy
>>217335203if I pull that hat off will he die?
>>217335092I wonder how long he'd live in the live support.
>>217335214It would be extremely unprofitable.
>>217335237he's a rich guy
>>217335306>>217335306>>217335306>>217335306
>>217333729Nope. The one time he truly got mad and started shouting as he did here, when Howard called him crazy, was when you attempt to ransom the Platinum Chip to him in his own casino. Aside from that, he merely gets frustrated with your perceived stupidity.This guy didn't play the game.
Ella Purnell is weirdly hot and ugly at the same time to me, I don't get it.
>>217335407unconventionally attractive
>>217335165So the audience knows he's cRaZy
>>217335420he wears the hat in the games.
>>217335436should he have worn the penis pump too thenit's clearly to make him come across as even crazier to the audience as he starts screaming at Coop
Lucy's nosejob bothers me.
>>217335463>duuhhh ridiculous hyperbolegoodbye
>>217335064See >>217334196
>>217334566ok I'm backHank is in the episode so that's an instant 7the whole House being another guy thing was kinda stupid, they should've just kept the actor from season 1there's several paths to go from here, I'm excited
>>217335407I would cum so hard staring intensely into her big ass eyes.
>>217335512sorry you didn't understand that he wore the crazy hat when screaming "I'm not crazy, you're crazy!" to, in fact, make him look crazyit was a pretty simple idea lol
