Death claws in fallout 4 are way too easy to kill, in new vegas they are to be avoided.
Yes
For me when you get an anti material rifle the new vegas death claws are like radroaches
@@keigankelley8307 still keep em at a distance. They are fast as hell. Explosive rounds helped loads in the quarry
That's why I love modding tbh. The art design for deathclaws in 4 is great, and their animations are top-tier- which is why I love adding mods that make them the hulking death machines they really are.
@@decoded360 i noticed that deathclaws in fallout 4 use the same animations as the werewolves from skyrim. they're still badass but it's kind of funny

Wow, now I’m bummed out that there haven’t been intelligent deathclaws past Fallout 2. An intelligent deathclaw follower would be so cool.
Heck yeah it would
FO:T had them
Oh man, that would have to be a late game companion or have some catch like the Deathclaw is a runt or crippled. Would be Sooo OP if a Lvl 2 player walks into town with a Deathclaw bodyguard. Waay too OP... On the other hand it would be fucking awesome so who cares?
Hasn’t stopped developers before, having Boone and ED-E in New Vegas meant I rarely got a kill for myself. A deathclaw runt would still be a sick companion 👍🏻
It would probably need to a be child in order for it to get into buildings and well to not be massively overpowered.
When I played fallout 3 in 2009 I was terrified of Deathclaws but now I walk around in Deathclaw territory with a pistol and enjoy myself
Also I never knew deathclaws were genetically engineered I though they just evolved through the new climate
I was the same with mirelurks
@@highlandssprings5290 well with cheats and mods anyone can be fearless like you
@@highlandssprings5290 same with mole rats
I was 4 when I played fallout 3 for the first time, the vault 101 opening made me sad, I killed then overseer cause he killed jonas, I got the Info to where my dad is, got to the metro station, killed a mutant for his minigun and was horrified by the ghouls inside the station enough that I stopped playing for 5 years
I used Archimedes on the Matriarch in the quarry, when I saw she was still standing after the dust settled I marched back to Goodspring and retired immediately. They call me Easy Pete these days, I know my way around a stick o' dynamite.
So you gave the gun to a child
That sonofabitch can take loads of Archimedes to be honest....i had a hard time killing it AND i had to melee fight the whole quarry
My friend was yelling at me and giving me grief only after he watched me walk into the Quarry not knowing what I was in for, only for him to sit in silence as I snuck through and made it through on my first playthrough. I was saved by the NCR patrol that tried hunt me down and only saved me as I was being chased by a death law exploiting the fact it couldn't reach me on certain rocks on the cliff leading to the squad dying and me getting their gear at low level 😅😆😂🤣
Hey man, Gun runners has a huge fat man if only you pay them 2 USD in 2021 currency, and have like 30000 caps for the thing, make sure to pack a few mini nukes though! It would destroy them in seconds! or.... minutes...
The matriarch wasn't much of a problem after a few .50 explosive rounds from my handy anti-material rifle snuck around to the main quarry unit in the middle perched up on the roof and one by one the pack was exterminated with normal .50 rounds the alpha took if memory serves right 1 or 2 full mags of rounds
Now imagine if the supermutants were successful and had been deployed side by side with deathclaws and legions of power armored soldiers 😳
That would be a terrifying army

In Fallout 4, the quest "Devil's Due", where you can either sell or return a Deathclaw egg to its mother was glitched in my case, and I sold the egg in its pristine condition despite returning it to the mother. What's weirder is that it was still in my inventory afterwards.
So, I did the logical thing: gently place the egg inside Shaun's crib, alongside a comfy pillow, teddy bear and baby rattle. A few days later, the egg was nowhere to be found.
I like to think somewhere out there, an Alpha Deathclaw sees a man in a Vault Suit, and a single word comes up in his primal mind:
_"Mama?"_
Sounds like one wacky adventure...I'm in!
@@Synonymous101 In Fallout fashion, this quest would be named "They Grow Up So Fast..."

@@Rule-be6lw hey, nice egg you got there, hope it doesn’t hatches right?

@@JayV98not really completely ,we know they were ready to drop the bombs ,but there still are a lot of uncertainties, like if vault tec dropped the bombs, why where so many of their projects not finished by then and if they were working with mister house (who was at the meeting) ,why didn't he know when exactly the bombs would drop and had the platinum chip delivered one day early?
You forgot to mention they are also terrifyingly fast. You can forget about outrunning them
Sneaking through quarry junction and it turns to danger and you see a alpha deathclaw dashing 100 meters on a second
For some reason super mutants and deathclaws in fallout 3 and new Vegas run at 60 mph
Easy, cripple their legs.
@@unoriginalperson72 i mean it makes sense most people think bigger things shouldnt move as fast but like i couldnt outrun a bear let alone a giant genetically engineered lizard or a mutant human thats physically speaking the absolute best performance you could get out of a human shaped body scaled up 3-4 times
Meanwhile in fallout 4, they run in small circles around you and like never actually attack because recycled Skyrim werewolf were used, same with the AI.
That's why they're way easier to kill than new vegas

Ever since that quest i was careful to avoid deathclaws because i fell in love with their ways
Everyone seems to forget about the Chameleon Deathclaw, a rare breed seen in Fo4 that have retained their predecessor's camouflage abilities, which could've been one of the most terrifying creatures even among other Deathclaws if it was found in obstructed foresty areas where it's stealth could be used to full affect.
Almost like a predator
It's not camouflage for Chameleons and the Deathclaw, it's actually a mood sensor. If it's teal and green: the thing is calm, but when it turns orange and red it's very disturbed
Fallout New Vegas
Level 1: OH SHIT! THAT'S A DEATHCLAW!
Level 50: OH SHIT! THAT'S A DEATHCLAW!
I have a mod that allows ALL deathclaws to go invisible on fallout 4 and I play on very hard and I dont just carry around a mini gun so sometimes I'll just be strolling along and I'll hear stomping and I'll turn to my left and see some air jiggle and I'll just scream the fuck out and then get one shot bitch slapped by a deathclaw
I remember playing fallout 1 and seeing that giant death claw footprint. Back then u couldn't realy check up on the internet for Easter eggs n stuff so I was always afraid that there is a godzilla like Deathclaw somewhere on the loose.
That would have been awesome, honestly. Even if we never see it in the game proper, the mere fact that this creature exists would be quite amazing.
@@Myuutsuu85 it's so wierd that it was never mentioned again. I mean it's an Easter egg yeah but so are the Aliens
@@H3llf1re60 yeah, and you do see their skeletons not just during the special encounter, but also at the Glow.
And then we have the Zetan's.
I agree, it would be epic if this one came back, even if it is just a mention, or something.
@@Myuutsuu85 imagine a fallout 76 raid with a massiv Deathclaw that throws trucks, Pieces of buildings and feasts on smaller Deathclaws (or mutants if cannibalism is not possible for Deathclaw) to heal back up.

The fact that fallout’s most terrifying creatures are a pre-war, manmade creation is not only terrible to think about but it tracks 100%
Would have been sick in fallout 4 when you get the pristine death claw egg instead of selling it or turning it in you could hatch it yourself and have a death claw ally😎
Yeah, feed Dogmeat to the little guy. Who needs a flea ridden dog when you can have a Deathclaw pet instead?
I think they should have added an incubator in the workshop so that you can hatch any pristine egg for any creature like a mirelurk or deathclaw
No@@planetfall5056 no
The quest would go like: build and incubator to see it the egg hatches. The egg hatches and the baby disappeared. A week later in game a young deathclaw pup is found wandering around in of your settlements, approaching it activates the second quest "you've got a fiend in me" where you travel with it and it slowly grows into a teenager. It would be slightly taller that you and able to get through doors. This is were it stops growing, so it still would be able to path correctly.

For the people who have never played the game and only got to know about it from the recent Amazon show, these videos are treasure trove! Fascinating to see, there is so much good content created years ago about the show you just finished watching.
Deathclaws have a special place in my heart. I've spent a lot of time in 3 and New Vegas watching them trying to skirt by and avoid a fight (I'm really bad at games but I love RPGs) and it's grown a fondness in me for them. Some part of me desperately wants a chance to raise one in one of the games and I was quite excited in FO4 to be able to reunite the mother with her egg. I didn't even question if I wanted to sell it and I never have in any play through.
There's a mod for Fallout New Vegas, which name I sadly don't remember, that adds a lot of new perks to the game. One of them allows you to have a baby deathclaw as a companion, and feed him to make him grow into an adult
this is the sweetest comment, best of luck to you in your rpg endeavours

The first time i played fallout 3, i didnt encounter a deathclaw until well after i got the 2nd level of the animal friends perk (?)

I don’t know how intentional it was but you’ve done something not many people tend to do: you spoke about the deathclaws with a compassion for them as living beings, intelligent animals, who’ve been hunted. Fantastic video. Subscribing
Yeah I've always wanted a pet deathclaw as a companion, with their overwhelming speed and armor Pierce on their main attack why wouldn't I?
I had high hopes for this one in the museum of witchcraft mission in four, even though I didn't get what I wanted it was still cool to notice that a death clock and still see something other than another deathclaw as non-violent non-threatening and helpful
If only someone had said that to the Enclave.
Or Bethesda.
First time seeing these in fallout 3 was a damn heart stopper
My first encounter was just north of the dunwich building, me a jericho walking through a small canyon then it pops out, jericho gets fucked up and i turn tail and run into that building, which was just as scary!

@@christoforospaphitis4090 In F: NV, armor only has durability / hp, while in F4 there is protection against, bullet / impact / explosion, electricity and radiation. In F: NV, you die immediately, because you have no protection, and in F4, you die immediately, if you have no armor or weak armor.
@@christoforospaphitis4090 they’re so much deadlier in fo3, in NV there’s enough good weapons to where they’re not a problem
I seriously wished Goris came back in the series, he’s the most underrated ally in the Fallout series!

I feel like intelligent deathclaws are basically a retcon, hate the idea but Id love to see 2 deathclaws whom possibly survived the events of FO2, it fallout 5 perhaps...
He's the best companion, period
Indeed
Fallout lore is pretty thin. It needs intelligent deathclaws and some robots that aren’t just killbots as well.
This video was so well done it almost felt like a real life animal documentary! Props to you sir!
I love how sporadically powerful they are between games. In fallout 1 they hit like mosquitos whereas in new Vegas their claws go straight through T-51b power armor and 1 shot me.

@@joshuaspath6923 Boatflies are legit scarier than Deathclaws in FO4... damn radiation damage, LMAO.
There are many mods that make Deathclaws ferocious again. I highly reccommend them.
They should really bring back the intelligent deathclaws I'd love to play a plot line where you help them find somewhere safe or you can eradicate them entirely. If you decide to help them you can then further establish their new home and actually get a deathclaws companion that could speak being one of the intelligent ones.

There was a deathclaw companion in fo2 and he was very intelligent he wore a cloak so he looks human then the first fight you get into woth him in the party he throws it off and is revealed as an albino deathclaw

Probably one of my favorite details for Deathclaws is they actually maintain their claws. You can see them sharpening them with their teeth and other claws if you sneak around them a bit.
I posit the younger Deathclaws having smaller horns and dorsal spikes points to both features actually being a part of the mating process.
I would back this up by saying the fact that they are born with teeth and claws also points to this.
It shows that the horns are not the primary weapon of the creature, nor their defense. The claws are.
As the horns are something developed through age, I suggest that males actually use their horns for some sort of competative headbutt "wrestling" during some sort of rutting season, as many others animals like rams/wilderbeast etc, I say this as the Deathclaw is a pack animal in many ways, and it wouldn't want to kill the opposing male using his claws, so much as put him in his place.
Females horns are possibly backwards, keeping them out of the way and allowing her to crawl into smaller places to lay eggs, or allowing her to nuzzle the young without harming them.
Though the male may have one his fight, females are often still very picky in themselves.
Being such large and dangerous animals, (without a strict physical size/power ratio between males and females) and the fact that the creature is so well adapting to its surroundings (their are lots of them across the entire country) indicates that the female can potentially be very picky about who she mates with. Obviousy the bigger the spikes the bigger the male "appears" the better genes they have, the more chance of successfull offspring etc etc.
What do you think?
if the horns are used for combat, even just ritual combat for mates, then it would be a trait picked up from one of the other creatures involved in their mix. but i suspect they are used for general combat purposes otherwise female deathclaws wouldn't have them unless the splicing process somehow introduced hornedness into the female genes
@@entropicflux8849 It is!
The Jackson's Chameleon has horns. And that is the basis for the Deathclaw.
Typically in nature today males have three horns. The horns are used to defend the male's territory. They lock horns and try to push each other off a narrow tree branch.
Females have a diminished horn or none at all.
As for the females, plenty of other female creatures have horns especially in the bovine, deer, sheep families.
Never know what other DNA is spliced in their
These are obviously used in both sexes as weapons for defence, but primarily are used for competative mating rituals.
However as the sexes are so similar in build the shape, the horns shape could also be used as an obvious sign of sex, (from a distance) to eachother.
A "prey creature" is not looking at the distiction between male and female and a human (but for our smarts) should never get close enough to see it anyway. So who is the distinction for?... Well eachother.
@@kirkkatana This reminds me of the Diablos from Monster Hunter, they engaged in similar contests of strength with their horns with the loser either losing the horns or leaving the territory.
While there is little dimorphism between male and female Diablos, female Diablos periodically enter a period of heat where their scales become black and they become irrationally pissed at everything they can see
Good observation
Nat Geo should hire this man
Very cool video, and i was fond of how well-prepared it was with the information and clarity. It was like listening to a National Geographic documentary. Very nice.
With the fact that the Mother Deathclaw hides her eggs, I imagine weaker male deathclaws often steal eggs to raise themselves as you can often find random deathclaws carrying an egg
I very much prefer the lizard-like Deathclaws. If we want a giant furry killing machine, we have bears to fill that niche. Just use irradiated bears.
They have those in New Vegas

It feels like in every Fallout game we meet some prominent pre-war figure who survived the bombs in some way besides ghoulification. Take Mr. House and the guy who created Nuka-cola.

Wow this just popped up in my feed. Two years. You've come a long way.
Thank you 😁👍
You deserve the props. You've put a lot of work into your videos.
My first Fallout game was 4. Deathclawa were easy to kill, especially with power armor. I then played 3 & NV.
Oh boy I was not ready
Yeah I usually refer to the deathclaws in four as pu$$y claws.
"The Apex Predator of the Post-Apocalyptic Wasteland."
Bethesda Physics Engine? O.o
The intelligent deathclaw could have been an interesting random encounter or questline where there's an evil deathclaw that lures humans by it's voice which has made a settlement worried about their settlers disappearing over the couple of weeks and not coming back.
Honestly, if Fallout 4 had deathclaws mimic human voices I would be more scared of them since they could then be a random encounter where legendary Deathclaws could be hiding trying to convince you someone is in need of help only for them to attack you once you approach near their stalking grounds. To make it more believable they wouldn't appear until a certain level and before that only real settlers would ask for help, but after that it would be 50/50.
A Deathclaw follower wouldn't have been too bad. Would be cool to see a Deathclaw grow from a hatchling (which in turn makes the game needing small deathclaws) and grow as you level up and at a certain level it would be at it's strongest. The only bad thing about it is how would it move around buildings? It would require new animations that makes it go on 4 legs in small areas, definetly better A.I and probably new types of buildings that requires the player to figure out ways to make our friend able to enter such as opening a gate by using computers or lockpicking a garage door.
A deathclaw questline where you get one as a follower would be awesome anyways, especially if it was a very intelligent one.

I fondly remember watching my eldest brother play Fallout 1 as a child, and we both shit bricks when we came across the mother Deathclaw in the Boneyard for the first time...they've been watered down to the point of being a nuisance in newer fallout games.
They were hard to fight in those games but there is always a way
I wish you could make deathclaw armor nothing fancy but if you get enough Deathclaw hide
And we can make a Battle coat like Elder Maxion
Really liked that video makes me want to listen to more! Well done!
Anyone else find the Deathclaw design in 3+ New vegas more intimidating than 4 their faces looked more intimidating to me not to mention in 4 you kill one in the first fifteen minutes so it devalues them very quickly.
Also in new Vegas i meet them 3h or so in trying to shortcut somewhere, i was completely destroyed
It sorta makes sense when you consider that animals in the desert tend to be more dangerous than their more “suburban” counterparts.
I personally preffer the design of FO4 deathclaws but the nv and fo3 versions were much more scary to fight.
If we had fo4 deathclaws with the letality of the previous ones... Oh man, that would be horrible.
Fallout 4 wanted to appeal to a lot of players by giving them the most memorable weapon in the franchise to use against the most memorable enemy. The whole game intro mission was an action movie.
@@motivateddad still, the value of the deathclaw diminishes significantly, in new vegas they're basically a no-go before getting some of the most powerful guns in the game. Beating one was really satisfying because of that the way i see it
The moment in fallout 4 when in the basement of the church or Museum investigating the monster. Then the hulking footsteps above. Holy shit, it was terrifying and awesome. I could feel my little dude gripping his pitiful pipe rifle even til his hands hurt.
Ballistic Fists, or The: "Fist of the North Rawr", all the way.
Heh
What an awesome video! I feel blessed to belong to a society that is prosperous enough and cool enough to make a video like this. This is amazing
Knowing they "evolved" from Jackson's chameleon, has now made me call them death claws
Some people call them
"Wasteland Devils"
Who calls them that?
@@Yodelii
Me and
I think it's a pretty fitting
don't you?
@@sneakysnuck8481 no
Imagine being a construction worker just trying to do your job but then you get attacked by a horde of fucking nightmare lizards
I know right
Another excuse to not do construction work for 5 years
I’m gonna apologize in advance but I’m totally binge watching your videos. I’m replaying Fallout 3, trying a speed run of it and when I replay a game I love watching vids about it, specially fallout. The world of fallout is so vast, chaotic, and eerily beautiful haha 😅
In Fallout 4, I got an epic random drop of a shotgun that has exploding ammo. You can imagine the fun of blowing off the arms and legs of a Deathclaw but it still having a health bar.
Imagine if a facehugger got a deathclaw
Thats it. Im dropping another nuke.
@@robertharris6092 Didn't stop them the first time hell it might make them worse.
@@LanMandragon1720 u time to get the grenades
@@LanMandragon1720everything a facehugger gets on makes them worse. No question it do the same to a death claw
@@justinalvarez4190 I was responding to a comment that said nuke the death claws. Which was apparently removed at some point in the last year.
I hate that they retconned the looks of the death claws and mirelurks in fallout 4. Suppose the look makes more sense in the latter, but they were far scarier looking in fallout 3 and before.
Doesn't help that they turned everything into a swarm enemy and made them stupid easy to detect. At least in 3 and NV, you had to be listening. In 4 its a "oh haha, didn't see your head in the ground."
Personally, I prefer the newer versions, they look more believable to me. The FO4 version looks like something that I can really see tearing open power armor and tanking shotgun blasts to the face.
Wut the design barley changed
@@huntertierney5495 The deathclaws used to be severely emaciated, quick, tough and relentless. Now they are fat boys that get shredded by a few 10mm shots and run away and hide if you get on a rock.
And the mirelurks are 100% different you can't say otherwise. Yes, the crab things they are in 4 look more realistic, but the crab people on 2 legs in fallout 3 were nightmare fuel.
@@nyarlathotep7321 Yet it can't because they're laughably weak in that game and even weaker in 76.
Well done, I can never get enough Lore from my favorite apocalyptic world of Fallout. I have watched many vids from many different people and you Sir have nailed it. Thenthapple was my OG, very good as well. Actually found you threw his newest video, you commented 😁
He was my OG too 😁👍
I will be shamelessly using your speech text for my assignment paper. I must say you have a really good sense of vocabulary and grammar in your script. Thanks for the video!
Wow last time i checked your subscribers they were 600, keep up the good work, we support you
Thank you so much!
Can you do a video about the children of atom? Also Great video so far
I sure can!
Great suggestion!
Easy. They came be after the Broken Steel DLC
@@xptaco2298 weren't they already in megaton before the dlc...
@@Synonymous101 yes
"Don't hug the nearest deathclaw"
But they're fren shaped
I just love how they post a new video every day. They are so chaotic that I laugh so much 'til I can barely even breath (Not actually obviously)
Their videos always make my day! They're so close to 10MIL, I can't wait until they hit it! :O
I will never forget my first deathclaw encounter. I was trying to find a shortcut to Novac and took that one pass. Man that blind one folded me so damn fast, I just respawned and took the long way
Deathclaws are just trying to live their best life
I remember the first time I played Fallout 3.. I had just left vault 101 for the first time, witnessed the blinding sun on my face for the first time, seen the wasteland for the first time. I wanted to do some exploring naturally, so instead of walking straight ahead towards Megaton, I started walking right up the broken highway towards the bridge and into the destroyed woodline. Suddenly I see the horned creature emerge from nowhere walking towards me, the it started running - so I donned my trusty 10mm pistol and began firing at the deathclaw.
2 and a half magazines and a bunch of back pedalling later, the deathclaw caught up to me, hit me once and took my head off lmao.
An entire Fallout story could easily be made to incorporate “Hairy Deathclaws”. There’s the Himalayans, Northern Rockies up into Alaska, the Ural Mountains, etc. Hell, any of those places would kick ass.
They could easily be the yetis of the Fallout world. Bethesda could’ve stumbled into this blindfolded and still hit a bullseye…my best guess any way lol.
It is curious just _how_ different the Bostonian Deathclaws are. Not only in terms of appearance, but also behaviour wise - they seem to be nearly always solitary.
That and they got nerfed HARD for the sake of the first mission in concord. That mission is literally the reason deathclaws suck in 4. Damn you Todd
I think if we ever get a Fallout with pieces set in Canada or the Northern US, there should TOTALLY be 'wooly' deathclaws. That'd be great.
Nah give us new creatures. How about instead of deathclaws, say like a giant death claw like moose?
@@stuglife5514 Yeah, because Fallout fans certainly wouldn't be like, "THEY TOOK OUT DEATHBLOWS!!!!! RAAAAAGGGEEEE!!!"
Feathered deathclaws maybe? Lots of downy feathers, like some dinosaurs. Ohh, Little floofy deathclaw hatchlings would be so cute.
@@stuglife5514 Nuka world has GatorClaws
@@MST3Killa fallout fans would rather turn the game into a Chinese call of duty knockoff so I don't think their opinions would matter on new creatures
Tactics had probably the most faithful design in terms of making what the Deathclaws were originally supposed to look like. I also don't know who no other Deathclaw design has a nose horn like the Tactics design considering that's the only defining feature to make it appear like a Horned Jackson's Chameleon.
Here I am, never playing a fallout game but really intrigued by your ability to tell its lore!
2 years later, have you tried one? My first was fallout 3 and I got completely sucked into it.
The Ghost people from Dead money require more content on CZcams, the whole Dead money setting. But ghost people are so unexplored. Would love your take on them.
I rolled with Goris in FO2. Was hilarious watching raiders run away when he'd throw off his robe. That being said, let me tell you....deathclaws are scary, for sure....but Wanamingos....Wanamingos are absolutely TERRIFYING. More so than Cazadores.
I feel such anxiety seeing someone calling an Enemy with his spanish because its his real name- its hard to explain
I cannot believe we haven't seen a resurgence of inteligent Deathclaws in any other fallout games. That seems like such a cool opportunity for roleplay and story telling.
During the Concord mission With immersive power armor hud mod, and during a radiation storm, and using a melee weapon is the most intense/memorable fallout moment I've ever had. Especially when it knocked me down and starts mauling me. Fallout 4 had the went the best directions for both Power Armors and Deathclaws.
