What do we think of Mr House in the Fallout television series?
Character assassination
That doesn't look like House to me
Tv for retards.
that's not house>b-b-but dey said so!house finds out some guy is coming to kill him and immediately lets his would-be assassin know that his body double isn't the real house? no. the "body double" actually is the real robert house, he's having his brother pose as him to trick cooper into killing the wrong man. the big reveal will be justin theroux with one of those neck implant things right before his head explodes.
every single person in this show is a fucking retard
Absolute kino.

>>217341612I hope they keep Rafi Silver along as like a ghoul or something>>217341711he's clearly testing out the mesmetron, likely with plans to influence politicians
>>217341612I can't wait for the retarded reveal, because he is STILL uncredited.
>>217341669that's bethesda fallout for you, they dropped an intelligence lowering virus on everyone
>>217341528>>217341533>>217341588>>217341612>>217341669>>217341711>>217342211Cope
>I'm a mathematician, a roboticist, and a casino owner>I don't like solving for Xwhat does he have against algebra? is he stupid?
>>217342666He most likely needs that special second variable (Coop) in order to solve for X.
>>217341505Absolutely perfect. This episode fixed all the previous issues, except for BoS chapter being retarded frat bros.
>>217341505KinoAnyone who disagrees is a grifter tranny trying too hard to be contrarian
>>217341505I thought that guy was in a life support pod?
>>217341711somebody hasn't watched the latest episodehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39A0BBji4-4
>>217343077Flashbacks
he good. i remember him from that one other show
>>217342181he'll be credited next episode
It's pretty blatant that Bethesda hates NV and are trying their best to make everyone else feel the same by raping the characters and setting
>>217341711>didn't refuse to give house the platinum chip and watch him sperg out like a tard
>>217341505This must go hard for the goycattle
>>217341533>in the game a dapper "1920s cultist or circus manager" looking gentleman>in the movie a janitor, factory foreman, or travelling salesmanwhat did Mr House ever do to them to get this treatment :(
>>217343296reminder that the new vegas strip was a desolate, abandoned dump, same as it is in the show right now, until 2274 when mr house decided to reactivate it so that fallout new vegas could happen
>>217342994>if you don't like the tranny show you're a tranny
>>217341505Sir Building is a cool guy
>>217343440easily the ugliest mutant on the show
>>217341711Maybe he snapped after the strip went to shit
>>217343440>The faction that is founded on traditionalism and rejects abominations also has tranniesBravo Todd
>>217341505This episode was an actual, somewhat good piece of fallout media.Sure the entire series is shit and rapes the lore through and through, but House was House-like, the ghoul was somewhat interesting, there was no BoS bullshittery and they hint at the Bombs not being dropped by fucking vault-tec of all people.I still fucking hate this series for making fallout a joke (more than Bethesda already has) but this may be the first decent episode.
>Forced Evolutionary VirusSupermutants soon? Why haven't we seen any yet?
>>217343081They really shouldn't confirm anything about who dropped the first bomb
>>217343546they pretty much imply its the enclave lmfao
>ermmmm actually vault tec invented super mutants!!!This show is just getting worse and worse
>>217343570I'm fine with implications, they can imply everything they want. I just don't want conformation
>>217343582>it's bad because ermmmm it's not like the game!compelling argument
>>217343527It was the Russians and Chinese wasn't it?
>>217343609I trully wish that they would at least leave this piece of lore alone, making the start of the war ambigous as it used to be. Not that the next fallout is going to be an actual playable game instead of being Bethesda slop cooked on low heat for the next 20 years with an outdated engine.
>>217343570it'll be the enclave and china's government both blowing up the world as a great resetever notice how the enclave never talks shit about commies? ever wonder why advanced power armor looks like an insect?that's because the enclave and communist china are co-conspiratorsthe next big bad of the fallout franchise will be the chinklave
nothing against justin theroux but he looks gay
>>217343527why do you watch it if you hate it?
>>217343657Why did the enclave send 10 billion caps to israel?
>>217343542Show budget went straight to the Deathclaws.
>>217343657>ever notice how the enclave never talks shit about commies? Why would they, commies aren't a thing anymore. It's a thing of the past
WHOWROTETHISSHIT
>>217343542aren't there like a handful of super mutans on the westcoast by now? i know Todd retconned them for the east coast but surely they won't retcon it again (i know they will)>>217343570yeah it's pretty obvious it's the enclave. unless picrel.
>>217343542We've seen a hand, pretty sure there was a bounty posted for one in Filly as well. I think they're saving the reveal for the last episode.
>>217341505He's great
>Episode without dumb black>The best episode so farBros?
>>217343999I'M TEMPTED
>>217343999I hate this character so much I fear if I ever happen to see the actor IRL I may accidentally punch him in the fucking nose out of instinct.
Is no one going to talk about how the ghouls kid is somehow in the vault in vegas, when she was with the ghoul in LA, WHEN THE BOMBS DROPPED, and she somehow didn't die from being less than a mile away from several atomic blasts.
>>217343440What even is this thing? I thought it was a woman with a moustache problem.
>coop riding away on a horse as the nukes go offdream sequence?>lucy punching coopdream sequence?
Why is every character from pre-warIt was cool when like one ghoul would remember the pre-war world and it was cool when not-Howard Hughes made an immortality pod to keep himself alive forever but now every fucking character is either pre-war or the direct descendants of someone pre-warI stopped watching after S2E1 because I know I won't like the rest of it
>>217343999Worst part of the episode was not following up on the bos chaos, I'm certain next episode will switch back to Thadeus and Maximus for a significant chunk, losing the momentum, again.
>>217343527>>217343651i think the point your not supposed to be certain about who dropped the bombs. but im leaning towards the pre-enclave US government
>House tells Coop the world will end in 2065, implying it isn't 2065 yet>we saw the bombs drop on 2077 in the first episode>his daughter isn't 12 years older then than she is now in the show???
>>217341505Not been the biggest fan of the season so far, but episode 5 was probably the best episode of the show. House and Cooper are carrying this season HARD
>>217343527>>217344420They literally never said that Vault Tec dropped the bombs. They only said that Vault Tec would be willing to drop the bombs if no one else did. I was saying this in every thread after that episode but people ignored me. It was always meant to add to the mystery of who dropped the bombs, not reveal who did it. This show honestly sucks but that scene revealed it's still too smart for fallout "fans"
>>217343542there's no reason for the FEV in vaults 31/32/33 to be the same experimental variety from Mariposa and Vault 87. They knew pre-war it was not finished, hence both of those were research bases where the scientists were expected to keep working on it (and it wasn't even clear that Mariposa was meant to continue after nuclear war IIRC - the soldiers revolted when they found out the project and founded the Brotherhood of Steel).Bud's Buds was clearly not intending to use the FEV, because Bud would not turn himself into a brain in a jar if he thought he could turn the subjects (and himself) into super mutants. There was no indication that the vaults had any scientific facilities for super mutant experiments, or any scientific personnel - the frozen people were MBA business manager types because social commentary o algo.Maybe the show could surprise us and the FEV gets released and does something different, making weird one-off mutants like Harold, or actually working and making superhumans. But I doubt it. I think it's just floated as a memberberry and a threat for the short brother plot, even though that subplot had the most organic tension when he was at risk of being found out while trying to figure out what the prewar people were trying to do.>>217344163great point. but they could easily fix that and potentially make some good scenes by having Cooper and daughter meet up with the mother who takes a helicopter to Las Vegas to have a showdown/bargaining with House on the day of the war. Still, we're more than halfway through the show and House hasn't done anything to explain his mind control project. Otherwise he has little direct connection to this show's original characters.
>>217344435No, the date in 2065 that he said wasn't when he thought the world would end, that was the projected date for the end of the world jumped forward. It's Coop's daughter's birthday. She was born in 2065, so it's probably about 2075 currently.
>>217344569*sorry, no, that date was when he first found out the world was going to end. I got it mixed up with what he said about Coop deciding to come to Las Vegas, THAT cause the projected date to jump forward.
>>217341505Absolute kino, the great analyzer, knower and number cruncher goes mad from not being able to determine who’s really pulling the strings
>>217344569>>217344591That makes sense, thanks.
wait this actually was the best episode so far
Anyone else here with birthday on 14th of april?Finally our day has purpose
>>217344658Easily best ep od season 2, though in part because the rest was shit
Meh. I don't disagree that he can sometimes tardrage like he does in the show when he doesn't get his way, but he should have been much more cloak and dagger before getting to that point.5/10 portrayal. Much better than the BoS, NCR, or Legion
>>217343296>It's pretty blatant that Bethesda hates NVThis notion's contradicted by pretty much every account of interactions between Bethesda staff and New Vegas alumni (or those of the first two games) that we know of. Genuinely any interview, blog post or comparable source about the subject featuring either party dispels it. The only individual associated with either Interplay Fallout or New Vegas who's inferred not liking the show for reasons even somewhat comparable to this is Avellone, and even he's written any number of posts in the past rebuking common myths that fuel this idea (like its Metacritic bonus, pic related, or its short development time etc). You could maybe argue that this is only because of professionalism or something, but if either Bethesda or New Vegas' staff were obfuscating feelings of animosity toward the other for years on end, that'd be the opposite of blatant.
>>217342919I've noticed the episodes are better when the BoS isn't in them.
>>217341505I think his sperg out at the end of the new episode was way out of character, as are the mind control implants, but otherwise he's been pretty solid. Him using a body double like the conspiracies about Howard Hughes is cool. The seditious commie dyke being spooked and misinterpreting his missile defense system is a novel way of fitting him into the web of pre-war intrigue, even if her plan to get a movie star to murder him is retarded. The twist of him wanting VT's cold fusion so he can upload himself into an immortal robotic body seems retarded, until you realize that he basically does that in the game anyway, and it explains why his final plan with the Platinum Chip and sitting in stasis for a century seems so hasty. You love to see extended media actually build on the source material in interesting ways.
>>217344982Bethesda hating or not hating New Vegas is completely different from Bethesda hating or not hating the New Vegas developers
>only thing i like about this show so far is Norm storyline and character
>>217343440The presence of this performer in Amazon's shows significantly detracts from the show. There are trans performers that don't look this off-putting they could cast instead, if they absolutely must cast a trans performer.Unfortunately there's nothing to be done about it since the complaint is doomed to failure, any criticism would just be categorized under transphobia and dismissed as contrary to the M.O. of every media production company now.Trying to complain its against the lore of the setting because the Brotherhood of Steel wouldn't allow for that kind of modern gender expression in a post-apocalyptic wasteland is even less likely to be paid attention to since big media companies care even less about nerdy fans who get caught up in the lore of their money-making products than they do about bigots.
>>217341505Doesn't even feel like the same man
>>217344435it was a weirdly phrased line, but what he said was that he figured out the nuclear war was inevitable on that date, 12 years previously.I was surprised that House didn't say he was predicting October 24th 2077 as the date of nuclear war, because that would have been an actually relevant easter egg, and a way to indicate to Cooper that nuclear war was genuinely imminent within months or weeksas it stands, House only told Cooper that he had figured out that judgement day was inevitable, which for some reason puts Cooper into a worse panic than he had been in when he heard a whole boardroom (including House) actively plan the war on purpose.The lines about House missing an element from his calculations are potentially stupid. The Enclave did not start the war, and they weren't really a pre-war shadow government distinct from the already established military industrial complex. The game suggests House was ignorant of the top-level politics that would feed into even a non-conspiratorial nuclear war, but season 1 has him formally invited to an MIC conspiracy to star the war on purpose. Unless they throw some invented pre-war Enclave slop at us with 3 episodes left to go, this could be another point in favour of aliens, which would be a very strong candidate for what House overlooked in his calculations.
>>217345156Wasn't the Enclave already a thing pre-war? It was just a shadow council of the US Government that took power once the war happened, there was stuff you could find in Fallout76 about how the Enclave was around before the war
>>217341505Reminder that only Fallout 1, 2 and NV are canon, everything else is just fanfiction and can be casually disregarded.
>>217343657I've always felt the "Zetans" were really just time traveling chinks trying to stop the past chinks from ending the world but actually dooming it in the process
>>217341505I think he’s saying that The Master from Fallout 1 triggered the war, which I’m okay with.
>Prep for a fight with a Deathclaw>More show up>RunUnderstandable. DT's in NV were berserker tanks. They were reduced to fucking pussies in FO4.
>>217343440>ugly people can't exist in fallout!k
>>217341505good performance, dogshit writing
>>217341669except Ella
>>217344527have you considered the other two vaults are just inbred stock to create controllable dumb super mutants? I agree though that there's nothing in these vaults that would suggest any super mutant stuff though.
>>217343542they showed a dead supermutant in the enclave in season 1
>>217343527>This episode was an actual, somewhat good piece of fallout mediaThe pre-war stuff is good but the writing for Lucy's character is awful. They tried to play the final scene as a betrayal but Lucy has been a complete nuisance throughout the season, all she does is cause problems for the ghoul.
>Fisto has been in operation for 15 yearsGrim
>>217341711The exploding head fake out with the camera moving away like it did for the mice was one of the coolest things in a TV show for awhile. That is seriously how you subvert expectations in a funny way.
>>217343384He reminded the writers of Elon Musk because they skimmed the wiki and read the words "technocrat" and "space travel". So he must be destroyed lest anyone think the writers have badwrongthink about Elon Musk.
>Theroux house mentions H&H Tools specifically in the first episodeThere's no way this is a coincidence right? It has to be Anthony House. H&H tools being owned by Houses brother is a very obscure reference.
Last episode:>bro, Mr.House isn’t the statistician that predicted the future and he just dropped the bombs himself, the show is ruinedThis episode:>Mr House is exactly who he was in New Vegas and the show is ruinedI don’t get you people.
>>217341505i don't like that they made him look like a psycho lunatic even though he's completely right about everything and is supposed to be a calm and calculating businessman like in the game
>>217345651>Garrett Twins are gone>Van Graffs likely dead (probably since the end of NV)>Kings are gone>No mention of the Followers of the Apocalypse fucking anywhere>The Strip is a Deathclaw pit and no operational Securitron in sight.But Fisto made it out alright? That's a survivor right there.
>>217341505It got better in this episode. I guess that's because it didn't show any of the fucking brotherhood of steel shit with the other character. It being Ghoul and Lucy centric is the way to go.
>>217345816It was pretty daft that they had a shot in the background of the Kings place, they should have just had a few elvis looking guys chilling outside the entrance of the building when Lucy is talking to the Ghoul.
How many episodes are even left of the season? Feels like they've been going at a snails pace. We still haven't gotten Ceaser Culkin.
>>217343570It should really be the chinks, they are losing the war hard. They are the one who need a great nuke reset(kinda retard cuz irl the convention war would still go on and total collapse like in fallout is a meme). The US gov aka Enclave knows this but don't care to negotiate, they just prepare for it hoping to win the game in the long term. Since they would be in nice bunker, it would also led to them having more personal power on the post-war world, the enclave was a de facto monarchy until the oil rig blew up.The only way the Enclave nuke anyone is by ignoring the chinese calls for a cease fire and going radio silent in the days prior to the nuclear war most likely as the chink gave them a deadline for the ultimatum.
why is the travelling salesmen guy so likeable and watchable? he should be reddit incarnate but I actually like him lol
>>217345890Last two episodes, likely a brief scene with him coming out victorious and crowned Little Caesar (pizza pizza)
this show blows white cock
>>217341505Probably the best character in the showand they still got him wrong
>>217344374It had to be. If it wasn't this show will start sucking even more.
>>217345912Unabashed pervert seems to genuinely enjoy being alive, even if it's influenced by recreational drug use
>>217345912>gets away from almost being killed for fucking chickens>Trades a shitty antidote for a fusion core>Survives a radroach attack>Becomes Henrys mind slave but at least survived his brain from explodingI think his Luck stat is at 10
>>217345263I think the distinction is that the Enclave weren't a distinct faction piloting the American government, they were a subsection of the American government that managed to survive the war and became isolated and weird. Calling themselves "the Enclave" pre-war makes no sense and robs the pre-war culture of blame for the war due to complacency and shortsightedness, if it was an active and long-term plan by a small cabal to engineer the nuclear war for their own purposes.I never played Fallout 76 but the wiki TLDR actually seems to line up with this distinction, because a nutjob cabinet member killed the less radical survivors of government and became a petty tyrant trying to control pre-war superweapons to destroy everyone outside the "enclave".Them not really existing pre-war also explains why House didn't get involved with them in order to prevent the war or deploy anti-missile systems more widely. The war was inevitable because of the political culture, whereas the Enclave was an outgrowth of the political culture.
>I am _____What does it say?
>>217344374I don't get what you're getting at.
