Its actually closer to just about a year or two.
House was in a coma for most of that time, and in that short time he was awake, he mostly civilized three raider clans and made the New Vegas Strip and the rest of downtown Las Vegas (free side), be a significantly better place to be than the majority of the wasteland. Only rivaled by cities like New Reno, Vault City, The Hub, and Shady Sands in terms of quality of life and development in 2281.

So if house where to win, by 2291. You could expect to see actual infrastructure improvements like re-paved roads, useable highways spanning for possibly hundreds of miles, working electrical grids, new adobe construction, clean cities, irrigation, and clean drinking water. Which is absolutely necessary for rebuilding society.
Although I highly doubt he would have people in orbit by 2331.

Well let's say that terminal to get into his chamber needed to at least be hacked, instead of just mistaking you for House and letting you in. If you were max level and didn't spec into Science for whatever reason, you'd be softlocked if every main faction hated you or was dead. Yes Man route would be locked and you wouldn't be able to end the game. At least that's my spur of the moment presumption.

The Chairmen (aside from Benny) are the only "tamed" ones.
The White Gloves are eating people.
And the Omertas are actively plotting to blow up the Strip for Caesar.
>>
>>730786994
Fallout's civilization is like the modern US melting pot hellscape - there is negative social stability because there are too many separate cultural groups present, which causes social and technological development to stagnant and regress from lack of trust.
>>
>>730787075
Really wish retards who never played New Vegas stopped bringing this up
The White Glove isn't "eating people". A small group led by Mortimer kidnapped a man to prepare him for dinner to convince the rest to go back to being cannibals
Nearly the entire group are not cannibals.
>>
You have to understand House is a smart person written by idiots. He really is supposed to be a genius, narratively. You just have to take the fact at face value because Josh Sawyer is an absolute low IQ moron and he does not know how to convincingly roleplay a smart person. Just look at Ulysses and Canon, his two self-inserts. Dude's idea of "intelligent" is conducting yourself like an euphoric reddit moderator.
>>
>>730786994
yeah fallout 3 especially looks like it takes place 6 months after the bombs went off, not 200 freaking years.
>>
>>730786810
What if you needed outside access at some point and the internal system malfunctioned? Single points of failure are rarely a good idea. Before the Courier turned up the 38 had been completely sealed since the War, and House was planning on being surrounded by an army of killbots.

I like to imagine House's "taming" process involved a bunch of unga bungas just huddled around a lone Securitron in the middle of nowhere marathoning mob flicks. Some sort of machine god rolls up to you, interrupting your killing and rape, only to show you Goodfellas.

138, and he didn't have much of a choice but to wait for an opportunity to present itself. Without the chip and without access to the bunker, he had a hard limit on the number of securitrons available to him, they weren't that good at fighting and they couldn't repair themselves.

Well in the original canon, it only took about 70ish years for it not be much of an issue outside of the many hot spots.

But in the Bethesda canon, it was only 10 years. Which is way closer to being realistic.

In real life, most of the most radioactive isotopes decay over a time frame of about 6 months, and from processes of transportation of radioisotopes and deposition of new material above it. You could realistically have most of the radiation down to relatively safe levels from most places in probably just 2 years.

The only real reason why most of Fallout, looks like hell after 200 years is because Todd Howard doesn't want anyone to rebuild and wants Fallout to be an apocalyptic game, not a post-apocalyptic game.
>>
>>730786289
50 years is a long time,

von braun picked up a book about rocketry in 1923, in 1961, von braun was head of a space program that saw the first american in space. it took just 38 years

house presumably has access to research, schematics, and some form of an existing technical base from which to springboard space development, so it is entirely feasible in 50 years for house to send people into space

Unlikely, but not impossible, especially considering the timescale he was thinking on. He wasn't just using it as a surivalist bunker, he was planning on being sealed in there for the entire foreseeable future. The Courier and gang are the only people he's even let into the 38 in the entire time since it's been sealed.
