Bethesda has no idea how Ghouls work and they keep retconning not just Fallout 1/2 but also their own work - even within the same piece of their own work

In the Fallout TV show alone we have seen that a freshly-made Ghoul can survive being shot in the neck through both carotid arteries, but also that they'll die instantly if shot in the chest when one of the main characters does it, but also they can survive having half their chest impaled

That's not even getting into the clusterfuck of "do ghouls need to eat and drink or not" and "why the fuck do ghouls need radaway to stop themselves going feral if they are immune to radiation" (Bethesda even made it so that they're not just immune, they're HEALED by radiation)

>Vault-Tec somehow thought that being locked up underground for 200+ years would have them in a position to take over the world when they exited

Probably Robco, the robotics manufacturer. They'd obviously be the ones to develop a virus. At least if we're going by Bethesda's retardation

They'll probably have Vault-Tec do it, because of Vault 87 and they'll assume that the V stands for Vault

the enclave, they've shown the supermutant hands at their headquarter in season 1
the vault Mclean works in is guarded by deathclaws, which are gov pets
Bud's buds plan involves FEV
so Vault tec is infected with the enclave virus
>>
>>217335275
Vault-Tec's plan was literally
>Let's freeze most of us for 200+ years in the elite vaults, then un-freeze after more than 200 years
>????
>PROFIT!!!
How did they plan to rule the world?
Even in the context of a "show only" viewer it's been made clear that they aren't in charge of the post-apocalypse and have no hope in hell of being in charge. Not only did the NCR and Legion both exist, the Brotherhood has MULTIPLE armies with massive amounts of firepower, and the Enclave are by no means just going to go "yep no worries Mr Vault Guy you're in charge now"

It already makes no fucking sense even if we ignore the games (which the writers of the show clearly did)
>>
>>217335075
It's both, retard.
>>
>>217335389
They planned that nobody but vault user would survive. And they would be in charge of the vault population, thus the world once everyone got out

Electricity has been available to the general public for LESS than 200 years.
How can you possibly think that freezing yourself for 200 years and then waking up would put you in a position to take over the world? Surely the people at Vault-Tec would be smart enough to know that there'd be survivors.

Really, there were only two options:
1) If there are survivors of the nuking, then being stuck in a vault for 200+ years will mean there's no way to take over the world after leaving the vault
2) If there are NO survivors of the nuking, then they're now the rulers of nothing
Both plans are fucking retarded - and even Plan 2 somehow thinks that just because everyone who survived was Vault-Tec that there wouldn't be new factions formed from the Vault-Tec survivors? The show itself has shown that's fucking retarded in the latest episode with not just Romantic-Interest-Girl not being on board, but also Designated-Evil-Guy trying to take over

Did they plan to rule the world themselves? they're dream is to be the middle managers of a broader plan
>>
>>217335478
>They planned that nobody but vault user would survive
In order to nuke the world enough that nobody outside of the vaults survived, the world would be irradiated to the point of uselessness once they did finally leave the vault
>>
>>217335075
That wasn't a problem, actually, because it turns out money is just a placeholder for power, and if you rule the world you don't need it.

>The issue was "Vault Tec thinks the world ending is profitable"
That's too cartoonishly retarded even for a video game. It's makes far more sense for them to just be completely comfortable with never ending brinkmanship where everyone has nuclear weapons because they make tons of money in that kind of world and are too arrogant to think things will ever go over the tipping point.
>>
>>217335389
>Not only did the NCR and Legion both exist, the Brotherhood has MULTIPLE armies with massive amounts of firepower
Yeah, and they're in the process of killing themselves right now. And there are managers like McLean on hand to give things a helping hand along, doing things like nuking Shady Sands.

>the Enclave are by no means just going to go "yep no worries Mr Vault Guy you're in charge now"
The Enclave aren't known to exist at the time the plan was made. Even House didn't know they existed, he just surmised it.

Not to mention the fact that we're still at an early stage of the plan. They're only a couple hundred years into a multi-thousand-year plan, and humanity doesn't look like it's doing a great job of surviving. If Lucy's brother hadn't gotten into vault 3, killed Bud and thawed everyone early they absolutely could have continued biding their time until humanity on the surface had finally strangled itself to death.
>>
>>217335663
But you still have technology and comfort. That's what the vaults are for, that's why there's secret caches of technology hidden away all over the place, like the Brotherhood found this season.
>>
>>217335757
>That's too cartoonishly retarded even for a video game.
They already went more retarded then the games with the flea soup "joke". If that was Fallout 1, 2 or NV it would just be something like
>Don't ask where I got the meat from
and it would either be something gross like a radroach or human meat. Flea soup is just retarded as well as gross.
>>
>>217335764
>humanity doesn't look like it's doing a great job of surviving
Funny how that happens when you nuke a thriving civilisation.
>>
>>217335817
Well yeah
That's the point
Let's roll back, I'm not sure you understand what we're talking about here: Vault Tec WANT everyone on the surface to be dead, so they when the vaults hatch, they have a nice empty world to rebuild in. As such, humanity not surviving well, and being helped in not surviving, is good for the plan.

Harold wasn't dipped like people who became super mutants or centaurs were, and he wasn't knocked in and submerged in the vats for days like the Master was.

There is a NIN reference in the first game, so sure why not.

I mean, since there are a bunch of anti-war and counter cultural types shown pre-war they could probably get away with some boomer psych-rock or something without rocking the boat too hard. Have a radio station set in a hippy druggy commune or some shit if they really feel the need to justify it.

they killed the fucking ghoul lmao show's over, or maybe next episode we get to comically watch him drag himself back up the pole he's impaled on. Lucy committed murder because she didn't want to go home and wait for her daddy to finish work.

I'm not 100% sure what happened

>>217337050

We see the enclave in the beginning of the series and they haven't explained the faction to normies yet, so it's going to be the enclave, it's pretty explicitly them, so much so House even said it was the people who made the deathclaws, which is the US government, which becomes the enclave

>>217337192
I'm pretty sure it's gonna be the master which wouldn't be the worst twist but would undo a fuck load of lore

Anon, you know there is zero chance for Lucy or Maximus to die right? Lucy is gonna girlboss all over and Maximus is gonna kill all the evil whites (her dad is a white male, probalby she and max will kill him together), and then they are gonna have kids and save the planet with their enlightened multiracial offspring. ok kinda made up the last part but you get it. The 2 options you gave me are both 0 chance. I haven't watched since episode 2 so i can't comment on whatever's happening. When the brotherhood acted like 65 iq retards and blew up the nice mint condition car, i knew it was over. even half ape people you could dig out of the congo wouldn't act that way. its not even human to do that, retarded is just my limited vocabulary trying to describe it.

NTA While Lucy dying is yeah, practically impossible, I could absolutely see Maximus getting killed, if only because it would fit if he died after some grand heroic act that a lot of people saw, only for him to immediately be turned into a martyr by a bunch of people, similar to how the original Roger Maxson (as far as we know) just wanted people to do what's right and have something to believe in, but got turned into a pseudo-messiah that gives thumbs up to child murder.

Friendly reminder that Vault 4 actually makes perfect sense as to why the Master would have left them alone, since all of them were tainted by radiation and a worse strain of F.E.V.
The reason the Master went after Vaults was that he needed 'Prime Normals', people without any mutations or radiation exposure, and the only people like that in Vault 4 were killed way before the Master ever went to Mariposa. (The normies we see there are all NCR refugees.)

I mean, the people in Vault 4 seem to have an open doors policy, considering they let the NCR refugees and also Lucy and Maximus in without any issue, so I don't see why they wouldn't have been willing to hear The Good News of the Holy Flame and the word of the Unity when the first missionaries showed up.

Also why the fuck is the Strip irradiated and full of Alpha Deathclaws??? All they said was "ohh wandered in from Quarry Junction". HOW DID THEY GET ON THE GATED STRIP THAT IS PROTECTED BY ROCKET-LAUNCHING ROBOTS?? Why is the Strip irradiated but freeside right next to it isn't? Why did the deathclaws stop their rampage and not wipe out freeside too? Clearly they're strong enough to just tear through the walls if they made it onto the fucking Strip.

The NCR was such a pathetic feckless bunch of incompetents that Tandi needed to beg the grandson of the guy who rescued her from the Khans to deal with the squatters in Vault 15, and Vault 15 wasn't even fully operational.

That being said, while the NCR didn't really like proper mutants, the main reason they wanted Marcus out of the picture was that they didn't want any rival states. That's their entire M.O. in Fallout 2. Sabotage and fuck over anyone else that looks even vaguely civilized in the wasteland, so they are the only people you can turn to if you want stability.
Vault 4, just existing quietly, not minding being surrounded by the NCR and not going out of its way to trade with anyone wouldn't be a threat to their dominance or perception in the region.

Yeah, honestly it would have been way better if they just didn't say anything about where they came from.
Then people could cope that 'ah yes, the deathclaw eggs in Gomorrah in the credits clearly means that the Omertas tried to pull some shit with stolen Deathclaw eggs, maybe do an Enclave and train them, or use them as an attraction, but then the face eating tigers ate their face."

The Enclave flag is the same except the star is a capital E, isn't it?
>>
>>217337953
There are 13+1 star on there, because in Fallout's canon, Nixon erased the states, and reformed them into 13 commonwealths. (The fact that the North-Eastern Commonwealth is just called 'The Commonwealth' in Fallout 3 and 4 makes this a bit more confusing, but whatever.)
The star in the center represents the state itself (or, well, the Enclave realistically).
I think there's also a 14+1 star variant of this flag, from after the annexation of Canada, so this might be all happening before then, I'm not sure on the timeline on that. Or maybe the idea is she's using the old flag because she's protesting the annexation of Canada? Don't think the prop department would be that competent on this show so probably not, but could be.

Kinda silly anyone would still think this way in a post 2020 age of billionaires grumbling about overpopulation, 9/10 companies scrambling to replace their staff with AI without any concern for the thousands if not millions left unemployed if it actually gets off the ground, and basically everything involving Covid.
Actual nukes is a tad extreme, but there's undoubtedly more than a few people in positions of wealth/authority at this point who'd press a button to wipe a portion of the population away in a heartbeat to make us easier to manage/sell shit to.

>>217337953
Think in like the 1960s of Fallout they turned the states into 13 commonwealths, I don't remember the reason but that's why the flag looks like that.

>Let's make our wealth, influence and power worthless so we a couple dozen of us can do "THE PLAN"
NTA, but like, no matter how you slice it, 'The Plan' with the end of the world was always to reduce the population of the planet to almost nothing with the nukes. There would be no other reason to trigger the mutually assured destruction.
If you think the idea that anyone would go for that in a time of a resource crisis is too retarded, then fallout is probably too retarded for you altogether.
(Granted, the show did introduce the idea that the resource crisis was going to be a thing of the past due to cold fusion, but to be real, infinite electricity isn't going to solve the problem of feeding people. People can't eat electricity, no matter how much salt and paprika you put on the copper wires.)

Only thing I can think of to justify it is that a planned apocalypse is better than the threat of it hanging over your head and the worry of not getting to the bunker in time if the nukes start flying at any time.

I think it's pretty heavily foreshadowed that all the genetic and biotech F.E.V experimentation was for adapting humans and crops and stuff to withstand the wasteland.

free electricity means free robot labor like farming, which means free food. Also free desalination of ocean water so free drinkable water too.

Yeah but if you replace everything with robots and make 'free food', then how are you going to sell it to the people the robots replaced...?

And as far as Pre-War America was concerned:

am I the only one that is thrilled with the Fallout series?

I've been loving seeing what places were like pre-War, the set and prop designs full of Easter eggs, and all the nods to how the characters are acting like different playstyles in NV.

This is coming from an oldfag who has played through the Fallout 1 to New Vegas multiple times (with NV being the most played)

There's nothing wrong with enjoying something for what it is.
Personally, them turning House into a complete psychopath is really irksome, because it completely cheapens the choices in New Vegas, and the timeline is clearly fucked due to the prop department and some of the script writers having 0 ability to communicate with eachother properly, but it's still just a TV show. Enjoy it if you can.

I mean psychopath in the literal sense.

>Niggas been 200 years asleep doing nothing. Yeah he didn't have full reach with the platinum chip but at least he could have done something.
I get where you're coming from, and I'll admit this is kind of headcanon-y, but I think the only way to interpret what New Vegas shows you, is that House is being selective with the truth when talking about why he made his move when he did.
Think about it, when does he finally start doing shit? When the NCR shows up and restarts Hoover Dam.
The same Hoover Dam that he agreed to an extremely NCR friendly treaty about, so he keeps getting 5% of its power to the strip, which is also where his Securitoron command center is.
The only way New Vegas makes any sense to me, is if he needed someone to flip Hoover Dam back online in order to activate/control his securitrons, and was stuck on emergency power until the NCR did so.
>>
>>217339060
They're using the source material. You just aren't happy it doesn't fit your head canon.

>Inb4 they retconned china dropping the bombs!

Multiple ways to deconstruct this. First of all 'fog of war'. That means you have no idea who's doing shit during war.

Second is unreliable narrators. That means people lie for an avatageous reason. Like the US government saying China dropped the bomb when they did. Or vaultech saying they engineered the apocalypse when they have no idea and just want credit from followers for an inevitable outcome.

The show is good. The games aren't set in stone unless your player witnessed a historical event without any options. Easy rules.

It's got black and yellow stripes painted on it.
You know how in video games, there are specific markings on the envoirment where you can use specific abilities and other signals? The black and yellow stripes means it's indestructible, so the deathclaws had no choice but to give up.
(Seriously though, it's fucking hilarious that the 'not yet big enough for market' radroaches in Vault-Tec's HQ made more of a noise trying to get out than the deathclaws did.)

There is practically no easter eggs and nods toward Fallout 1 and 2 and signs that those games were erased from continuity and nods toward NV usually are in two flavors, one is making thing really dumb, second is just ruining it

You'd think they'd have a throwaway line about San Fran colonized by commies but no. Guess they were all just muties to Enclave.

did season one even have that much sets? all i remembered was the vaults and the junktown other than that its all just filmed in abandoned outdoorsy areas. If anything season 2 had more sets and they look pretty good apart from the tiny ass strip

I havent played any of the games so I don't get any of the references. In the latest episode Ghoul asks Lucy whether she has a rocket launcher in her bag, was this a reference to video game bags magically holding lot of items? Did any of the fallout game let you store a rocket launcher in player bag?

5 IS BEST EPISODE
>>
>>217340381
You do realize that like 90% of the fanbase have only played Fallout 3 and Fallout 4 right?
Even the creators of this show believe that Todd created Fallout and largely played 3 and 4.
>>
I was kind of down on the season but episode 4/5 were actually solid.
I still don't like how Coop is being made into the Anakin Skywalker of Fallout but his scenes are good nonetheless.
>>
So why does Mr House need a double that looks like an off brand version of himself?
>>
>>217338739
I mean, this episode is very different from the circus that happened in the last 4 episodes

I wouldn't be surprised if the next 3 episodes gonna be the worse than this one
>>
Entire show should have been pre-war and been the events leading up to the Nuclear conflict. (Invasion annexation and genocide of Canada, Chinese invasion of Alaska, Enclave/US Army doing FEV experiments, Invasion of China and unleashing FEV against the Chinese, Chinese retaliate and launch nukes)
S2 ends with the Nukes being launched. S3 is a Fallout 1 adaption.
I think a show about the US descent into Fascism, then expansionist war mongering, invasion of canada and then war breaking out with China, would honestly do a lot better than this shitshow. This show honestly is at it's best with the Pre-War stuff anyway. Lucy plotline sucks and is boring, The BOS storyline is genuinely painful to watch, the vault storyline is more interesting but filled with the worst casting ever.
>>
>>217338739
I've only played Fallout 3/NV and 4 and I like it.
I'm not a big Fallout lore guy though.
I am a big Halo lore guy and I couldn't watch the Halo tv show for that reason so I'm sympathetic to people who hate the show.

Nobody knows who the Master is beyond people who played Fallout 1, half of this thread have nfc who the master is, nobody I ask knows who the master is.
They are not going to make a single fucking plotline around Fallout 1 lmao, the only reason the Enclave are getting a mention is because they are the heckin badarinos in Fallout 3 and 76

There is a good chance that actually happens as a spinoff show. Fallout and The Boys are the only shows on Prime that people actually watch and The Boys is ending this year. They're gonna milk Fallout for all its worth and probably try for an Elder Scrolls series too.

baldurs gate is the most popular RPG currently, despite the originals being far more dated than the Fallout CRPGs, whose last "modern" reboot entry was 11 years ago at this point
>>
>>217340899
it's funny because the prewar shit is the most serious, they could genuinely explore the universe a bit more
like we don't know shit about europe or the middle east
there is so much potential!
but no, you will eat the BoS slop (for the 6th time) and like it.

Ron Perlman says the devs at Interplay gave $40 bucks and a rye sandwich for his "War never changes" bit.

He hasn't played any of the games, nor does he care to, but it's funny how a single line became a franchise staple.

And it's also good to note where to ramp down on the nerd rage, even if it does lead to an empirically weaker product.

Listen. If they wanna retcon the actor, that's fine.
This show has done way bigger retcons than just an actor change.

it was good narration on his part, with good writing and artwork, but the only reason it's so "iconic" is because so many redditors started the game and never finished it, or just watch ending clips on youtube

Thaddeus is turning into a Ghoul
>but second mouth
idk he's some wastelander when you think about it and got some rads

the show came out and then in fallout 76 they added a quest where you can become a Ghoul, where it's SPECIFICALLY mentioned that the way you do it is with a special serum that's done via an inhaler

snake merchant probably just got one of those or something and thats what Thaddeus took
that or it's a mutation serum (which are also in 76)

>>217341563
76 is canon, it just takes place way before any of the other games so it's events are pretty much almost entirely discarded due to time

maybe the gameplay mechanics of playing a ghoul might answer your question about rad-x? theres some mechanic that measures how feral you are or something like that, maybe look it up

looks like MK4, an arcade machine version?

actually he isn't taking Rad-X, they just call it "The Fix" I guess
but because it came out after the show and was never mentioned in any game previously.
It was an afterthought fix to the lore.
>>
>>217341695
>fix to the lore.
By making it even worse.
>>
>>217341695
yeah I guess, I just thought it was something like radaway because it had a similar colour in the show and I guess would make sense as a ghoul can turn feral by taking too many rads, pretty sure that was always a thing
>>
>>217341414
this is one of the least retarded things in the franchise because its pretty clear that they just barter for the most part. caps are just what they use to smooth transactions out like "i'll give you this fusion cell and 5 bottle caps, you give me that rifle". realistically they'd use something like stimpaks or cigarettes instead but the caps are mostly ok even when they're not backed like the Hub merchants used to. they're easy to move around, they do not perish and you can't really make more

having 10k in caps would actually be retarded in-universe because 1) their value is dubious to begin with 2) no one's going to want that many caps in any trade. you'd be better off storing your net worth in things that have actual value to everyone, like stimpaks or something
>>
>>217341765
>>this is one of the least retarded things in the franchise because its pretty clear that they just barter for the most part. caps are just what they use to smooth transactions
Bottle cap currency was almost phased out by the time of New Vegas, and this retarded show takes place five(?) years later.
>>
Since House is listening and watching every moment of Coop Howard, theres no way the enclave, who eludes even him, doesnt, right?
Then how come they seem less prepared than him?

Just doesnt make sense to me how hes able to almost defend Vegas, and only fails to do properly because he didnt know when the bombs would drop but the Enclave, who is almost confirmed at this point to be responsible, barely is a faction anymore

I actually thought it was a great episode. I played Fallout 2 only once but aged like milk. I don't really give a shit about all the lore rape you faggots are whining about. The only thing that was jarring was how the Deathclaws neatly stayed on the Strip. Seemed really dumb, but maybe they are being controlled and serve as guards? We'll see.

I like how House asked himself if he wasn't the big dog. Seems like the Enclave might have started this shit?

Coop's arc in this episode was pretty fkn great desu, Walton nailed that shit
