The Fallout Dust Lore Series - FULL MOVIE

- čas přidán 1. 06. 2023
- From the blood-stained sands of Cottonwood Cove to the lethal hellscape of Vegas, Fallout Dust is the answer to the question “What if the post-apocalypse had its own apocalypse?” Set 20 years after the events of Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout Dust sees the horrific desolation that’s come to the Mojave, as familiar faces, factions, and friends are either dead or have been turned into horrifying facsimiles of their former selves.
This “Movie” is an edited-together video of my Fallout Dust Lore Series, edited to seamlessly transition from one episode to the next, giving you the best, uninterrupted, and definitive Fallout Dust Lore experience. This movie and subsequent series are meant to be a standalone series dedicated to covering the story of the Fallout: New Vegas mod DUST Survival Simulator as well as a tribute series hoping to pay homage to ShoddyCast's original Storyteller Lore Series.
This project is entirely a fan-made creation and is not associated with Shoddycast or any of the original creators of their lore series.

Everytime a speedrunner completes a playthrough of fnv a new world of dust is created.
Lol
Lmao, I like that.
Dust is the canon result of a Speedrun 😆
explains why all the stuff from the madre and the divide are there, heavy use of glitches teleported it all to the mojave
Imagine mittensquad's dust worlds hes created
@@flipthegrid8809rip to him
So DUST basically all hypotethical situations that could go wrong in New Vegas, did go wrong....damn that's tough.
I personally prefer something like this than the standard canonical goody-goody two shoes endings most games have.
Yup that's the point. Father Elijah "wipes the slate clean" by exposing the cloud to the entirety of it. Tunnelers ravage the wasteland
Dust is what would happen if father Elijah won and fucked everything up(except no holograms)

I used to do the in game cinematics and post editing for Shoddycast's Fallout Storyteller back in the day. Needless to say, this was extremely well produced and a more than worthy homage to the original Storyteller. I miss working on that show even after all these years, so it's always really nice to see fans still carrying on the spirit of the series even to this day.
“I miss working on that show” - sir do I need to dig up all of our chat logs? Jokes aside, I still too also reminisce on our time working on Storyteller 🙏
@@Directinator303May I ask what happened to the Storyteller series? More so the Skyrim one than Fallout. I've always wondered why the Skyrim series was so short.
Seriously? Got any advice for making machinimas?
I still miss shoddycast
@@dagothur2666 the channel was bought from the original creators by two nerds who simply killed the channel because of their incredibly inane "content". The backlash from the fnv community was brutal for many months afterwards.
it feels to me like the courier of dust just got almost all of the worst endings for things and it just spiraled from there :(
Makes sense, actually.
I mean.. even the 'good endings' still spell catastrophe for the rest of the Mojave.
Doing an independent vegas run, either under House or Yes Man makes an enemy of the only major nation-state in the entire series. Your arm is twisted over and over, making it clear that this is the 'best' option for the people living in the region. However, it's told time and time again that the NCR presence in the Mojave is only a fraction of their forces. Once you gain their undivided attention, any foe of the NCR can simply be drowned in men and materiel. Just needs a good marketing spin and politicking to get the population angry, which they're quite skilled at. If the entire population of the NCR truly wanted Caesars Legion eradicated, it would be an easily achieved goal. Vegas is weaker than the Legion, but holds social and political sway. That's the only reason they were ever allowed to remain independent in the first place.
Now I wanna cover the DLC endings.
If Honest Hearts is completed morally, you end up with the Sorrows, Dead Horses, and any New Canaanite refugees being highly militarized and territorial to the north of the region. A militaristic tribe of people can cause endless struggles for any power structure. House cannot simply buy them off like the chairmen, nor can he truly wipe them out without great attrition. So the north is effectively hostile to expansion. Furthermore, the couriers inattention of the spore plants and human carriers of the contagion doomed the idyllic valley to ruin. The once-managable infection of zion was left to fester instead of being purged. The courier could come and go to the valley as they pleased, but simply chose to do nothing. It would have taken slightly more than the minimal effort spent collapsing the yao-guai cave, but nothing was done. Conflict was inevitable.
If Old World Blues is completed morally, you leave both Mobius and the other scientists of the Think Tank alive. They make it clear that they'll continue to exercise their twisted ideas of science. From dialogue, they're clearly on the cusp of re-discovering the outside world that they were forced to forget by programming. It just takes a little more self reflection, and they'll be able to leave this place, just like in the 'worst' ending, which is actually a failure condition that requires a re-loading of a save. If you don't kill the scientists, they WILL get out and cause absolute havoc on their new petri-dish; the American southwest.
If you complete Dead Money morally, everyone stays alive. Father Elijah is trapped in the vault and will die of dehydration in 3 days or so. Christine, Dean, and 'God' will survive to either haunt the casino or walk the wasteland. Failing to send securitrons or nuclear weaponry to this place almost guarantees that the precarious hazmat situation they have brewing would inevitably escape the complex. Even ignoring 'the cloud', the place has an active nuclear reactor supplying power. It will need maintenance and coolant or you have a small-scale chernobyl event happening. Combine that with the cloud, and it's borderline apocalyptic.
Last but not least is The Lonesome Road. If you do this morally, either the Legion gets nuked, or none are fired. Either way, the courier is directly responsible for the destruction of Ashton and Hopeville. Therefore the courier is also directly responsible for the tunnelers and the dust storms. Nothing they do during this campaign rectifies anything they caused. The storms will spread and so will the tunnelers. This will always happen no matter what. Again, I say, failing to send securitrons or broken-arrow strikes with nuclear weapons shows a massive underestimation of the danger uncovered there.
Through even the good endings of the game and DLCs, you easily create the conditions for 'Dust'. Any one of these threats could have stretched New Vegas' military capabilities to the breaking point. But one was not enough. The courier created or ignored severe threats and expanding badlands on every single border of the Mojave. Like House, they're a great arbiter of change, but I don't think they're good leadership material. Too goal-oriented to sit back and look at the big picture. Anyway, thanks for coming to my TED talk. 😅
@@Grimpy970 i always wondered if the Dead Money ending where you side with elijah could have caused the events of Dust. At least the fog relataded one. But this makes sense too.
@@Grimpy970 ya made a lot of good points that I didn't consider but I'm really still just sad about the courier, man got a raw deal
To be fair, it's bit too much.
If the Brotherhood survived the war, that means the House went bust
But the House always wins.
@@AsymmetricalCrimes not here, no one wins in DUST.
Brotherhood hold up in camp searchlight, ever since the ncr irradiated hidden valley, shockingly searchlight has no rads.
@@crimsondynamo615 Which no sense. It's like that rads just shifted settlements.
@@notgeorge8387The brotherhood wouldn’t go to searchlight if it had rads. Its been 20 years since new vegas so things have changed there
based off what I understand from the mod the courier got the darkest endings for each DLC specially Nuking at least the NCR in the Lonesome Road, Defending Zion and letting Joshua regress to his old ways in Honest Hearts, and Siding with Elijah in Dead Money, and since apparently no one could contact House after the second battle most likely Wild Card Ending
I think its more likely that he locked elijah in the vault and then he broke out, considering elijah wanted to cover the entire mojave in the cloud, also im fairly certain archimedes was never activated in DUST.
The Cloud would have prevented the Second Battle of Hoover Dam, so no, he (Courier is a male ghoul as of DUST) didn't side with Elijah in Dead Money
make sense, I was mainly guessing due to if you lock him in the vault the lock could not be disengaged and remote access is cut off, but I'm not sure.
Agreed with everything except I think NCR ending instead of Wild Card, because the NCR is still there and seemingly in power
Nevermind, you're right. 54:40
I like how every major faction in Fallout eventually just becomes the Enclave in all but name.
Ikr, the Enclave might as well join the dance.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely
It seems like the Followers at least have stuck to their initial principals.
To be fair, I think it would be better for factions to decline into different states, not just renamed enclave
For example, it makes sense for the remains of a fascist USA (In fallout universe USA is basicly openly fascist) to turn into even more militaristic and fascist state
And while a unstable republic like the NCR can turn into a fascist militaristic state, I think a more intresting option would be for them to turn into more soft power based autoritarian regime, where money and influence can get you anything you would want, and everything is kept toghether by a idea of status quoe, and not necesary military power
Meanwhile for the Legion, it would make more sense if it turned into a war lord state, based on few clans and tribes that would constantly try to prove their worth by conquering land, and humiliating their internal rivals
I think it is resonable that BOS would turn into a militaristic state of some sorts, but instead of it being a open dictatorship, it could be a regime simular to the starship trooper, where service in military gives you the option of actually taking part in the political structure
I just think that factions should be able to turn into something different than enclave 2
It makes Enclave right too lmao
One part of the mod that I personally love was the author's attention to detail regarding the Lonesome Road DLC. If you spare and fight along side Ulysses, after the end of the main quest he delivers lines stating that both the storms and tunnelers of the Divide will destroy the Mojave Wasteland in the next twenty years.
I just loved that the mod author somehow nailed the "it's the apocalypse, but it's about to get worse." feeling that the official developers implied.
I'm still agressively ignore Ulysses rumblings. Man's just salty about his sweet dream town getting nuked.
@@joby5838Dumb comment
@@joby5838 To be fair, anyone'd be almost (if not equally) as salty if they lost something that deeply mattered.
@@SableLeaf Yeah, him being Legion makes it even worse, because he was tribal before. So that really screwed his mind around old world, bull, bear, and all that shit.
wasn't the storm created by Big MT or something?
20:35 GODDAMNIT ZACK THIS IS WHY YOU WERE ONLY A SMALL ARMS REPAIRMEN. WE ALL KNEW YOUD PULL THIS SHIT
This is why he needed those cabinets more than you high speed
High Thpeed, Imma need those nukes now. They'll look mighty fine in my office.
One of the more disturbing bits about DUST is how the residents of North Vegas' sewers literally preyed on people's desperations by offering promises of food and shelter. When the survivors would go down into the sewers and away from the exit, they would find nothing but a horde of rabid cannibals waiting for them. The few that are able to get away from the initial onslaught make their way back to the entrance they came from, only to find that the ladder leading to freedom has quite literally been torn from its sockets out of the wall to prevent them from escaping. They must have had only a minute of facing this horrible reality before the cannibals broke down the door blocking them from their next meal
What a great homage to the Storyteller series. Dust is a special mod. Anyone who loved New Vegas should try it out
Alright, I'm siding with House. Get us the hell off this planet, Mr. TV Man. I got some brains in jars that can help you out.
I'm right there with you. 👍🏻
The big mt hates mr house
IMO, a more fitting way that could’ve Elijah survived wasn’t through a partnership with the courier. Instead the courier, needing someway to fund his pipe-dream of an independent Vegas, snuck out of the vault with all the gold and trapping Elijah inside. Elijah then found a way to access all the technology he could dream of from that vault. The Courier, not being able to let go of Vegas, doomed it to the same fate of the Sierra Madre. Forever preserved with red mist and hate.
now that the dust has settled and all is clear, maybe it’s time for things to get cold and frosty…

@@owenwagner463 I think he meant Fallout 4 Frost not The Frontier
Isn't FROST technically before DUST?
Almost makes you wish for a nuclear, well you know…
@@Orlando_FuriosoYes, Frost takes place in the nuclear winter directly after the war
Daniel is a real one for trying to put joshua to rest even after all he did to him
It was a vain effort but he gets credit for trying
So how did that go exactly. I'm genuinely interested in that piece of lore
@@colddaze6680 he got killed by the Wendigo
@@GoodmanEldwin Im glad DUST isn't officially canon, all I can say. .
The Divide is about 270 miles away from Zion national park. How does the "long dark" exist, a tunnel that runs from one end to the other? I highly doubt the Sorrows/Dead Horses walked from Zion to the divide, got attacked by the dust walkers, then walked back through the tunnel to Zion to find it collapsed.
Yeah that's my only hangup unless the tunnelers created it. Wish it wasn't a highway tho. Makes less sense
It’s a Fallout mod. Give it a break it’s doing its best.

Thank you!!
I always wondered if the ending where you side with Elijah and release the fog on the mohave could actually lead to the events of Dust? In some sort of alternative timeline.
there would be no 2nd battle of Hoover
I think the Courier locked Elijah away and somehow Elijah escaped
it could be similar,just maybe more cloud and holograms defending certain locations
honestly I never got how being trapped in that bunker is definite. A resourceful genius like Elijah would just reverse program the terminal or jury-rig the sierra vending machine into a high-powered blowtorch to get out.
If anything you'd just be detaining him long enough to hopefully drag a bag full of gold back to Vegas.
check out the mod called Masters of the Madre ;)
When I first got into Dust I had a weird relationship with it. It felt so very alien to me, you said it in an earlier video about Dust, that it like seeing something cartoonish from your childhood exposed to very adult themes. Nothing in this mod captures that like what happens to Joshua. I'll be dead honest, I'm a sucker for the character, and he immediately became my favorite when first played the game. Playing Dust and going through Zion, learning who the Wendigo was hit me hard. My biggest criticism of this mod is that you can't kill Joshua, to put him out of his misery.
10/10 mod, would go insane again.
Totally with you on that one.
He's definitely my favourite character in F.N.V without a doubt. For a few different reasons. I'm not even religious though. It's not about his religion for me. Though I realise he draws on it, to cultivate his own wisdom,inner strength and path etc. I get that much. Though it's him , himself at end of the day. He's a living demi god. A god of war, tempered through hellish experiences. And a deeply spiritual, righteous man with a need for redemption. He's a guardian angel of his flocks of tribals. His tribals he seeks to protect and seek redemption through. I just don't think such an icon of a Fallout character and a warrior could be taken down by some sh#tty spores or toxic dust clouds as easy as it apparently happens .He's to smart and fast and determined to become an easy victim to such things. As cool as I think Dust is,for the most part. The fate of Joshua just does not sit right with me in this mod. I'm just glad its not officially canon. Joshua is the light in the darkness. A survivor and defender. He needs to stay a living legend in Fallout, and progress his story in it, far as I'm concerned.
@@colddaze6680I feel like his fate makes sense, you can kill him in the base game, and anyone can fall to a sickness. He, however, lived through it, and became unkillable. Of course, there is not much of his past self left other than his strength and persistence. But the one thing that still haunts him is the one thing that turned him into the monster that he is now.
@@therealmanguyman His fate in Dust doesn't make sense to me. Or feel justified, or deserved at all. Why it doesn't sit right with me. Sure, you might feel it does., you seem to have reasons. I never tried to kill him in Honest Heart's. A man betrayed by the man who turned him into a soldier for his cause.Joshua was right to be filled with rage at that, and want revenge. Joshua literally burned to learn the meaning of redemption. He's still finding it, for all his killing, in the past. He's still one of most honest and righteous characters in the game. Still so much they could do with him. And he deserves to outlive Caesar and the Legion.
I'm just glad Dust is not cannon.
God this was some top tier fallout content. I absolutely love this style of storytelling, it just makes you feel immersed in the world. I am definitely going to play Dust now.
Try to get the jeans sky diving start unless you want to be eaten within 5 minutes. Watch out for tunnelers, get a fire weapon to scare them and other nasties away. It's brutal but there's ways around.
Fallout dust makes you good at video games
Take a shot each time he mentions "lucky 38" or "rebels"
Dont forget "cloud"
While its not technically canon, i do wonder if you'd be interested in doing an addition of this talking about the Dust Expansion Project. Its *huge,* and vastly undocumented right now, but it opens locations and characters and expanded lore from all over that blows my mind to find on the regular.
Favorite rn is Old World Blues, but I'm still working my way to the other DLCs. The Divide door is open from the Mojave!
One of my favorite parts is that you can find boone in novac just chilling
@@Dupingsandcream I thought this was a bug! I had a feeling he was scripted to return to Novac if you cleared it out, but he does it... fast.
He wasn't there when the Cannibals were, but I walked around exploring a bit, and went back to the dino to grab smth I dropped, and there he was on the stairs. Wild.
@@DruCart he actually only shows up at night weirdly enough, and i mean the "NCR Veteran" boon
@@Dupingsandcream Ofc, ofc. Weird, but still neat.
Hadn't heard of that mod, might try it out
ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS! Great job and great homage to Shoddy. Can’t imagine how much work this was, but thanks for such an awesome video. Looking forward to hopefully more if you do!
I liked the securitron in The Courier section with the blacked out screen, almost could hear Yes Man saying "Where am I! I'm glad you brought me here! 😊"
I'd been meaning to watch the parts in order but never had the time to binge, this is perfect.
Fallout: Dust is to Fallout New Vegas as S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly is to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Both turn both survival games into true survival suffering, and the end result is something beautiful.
Also holy shit that Courier ghoul voice was spot on.
Sadly just not as popular
I literally just said the same thing yesterday on Reddit lol
Dust did not ruin the face of fallout the same way anomaly (especially GAMMA) did with stalker
Hi! I just want to say that your original series inspired me to play dust on my own, and while absolutely, it was hard as hell, it was the best experience I’ve had in a while (probably because it was new)
Thankyou so much, and I hope you have nothing but success for your YT career! I’ll be here
I have done it, 80 years and not a single nut bust. Thanks to my incredible goal i have obtained an iq of 156 which i have used to build a pc that deletes system 32 when it loads any type of NSFW.
This took me back to my first days getting into CZcams and fallout watching “The storyteller” and hanging on every word.
Amazing job 🥂
amongustheblueballs
I really appreciate the old shoddy cast approach you took for this video its so refreshing and nostalgic
Very strong Storyteller vibes off this one and thats very much a compliment! I've missed this format of lore content since they stopped doing it on ShoddyCast. Keep at this mate! You've got the storytelling chops and the voicework for this kinda thing, keep it up! ^^
I think the best thing of this is how this CAN MAYBE PROBABLY NOT fit into the main timeline of fallout. Fallout 4 is only 6 years after and you could explain the Radiation storms in Nv with the Radiation sand storms that came from the divide in dust. Idk I just would like a fallout 4 dust.
Best youll get is frost, but its a prequel
@@Dupingsandcream a prequel to dust or a prequel to New Vegas?
@@gamertrask9153 a prequel to every game technically, it takes place a few years after the great war

I wish you luck for more to come
Just stopping by - watched this the other night and I absolutely loved it. I haven't had the courage myself to try Dust yet, but ... the urge grows.
Its pretty fun, be sure to get the expanded mod if you want to encounter the companions and a ton of other things. Walking into novac and getting your head blown off by a certain sniper is an experience
Theres also a courier companion mod
@@Dupingsandcream Noted! Thank you for this! I do think the companion aspect would add yet another emotional element to it all...
@@shadesofslay the best version of the courier companion mod is the expanded one, because it removes his voice lines and adds so many new things such as dialogue when you enter the divide
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
For once, I agree with you guys.
Can’t believe this became canon, Bethesda clearly got to play this mod
Bethesda: "Alright, you guys can't make any ending canon for Fallout: New Vegas."
Fallout Show Writers: canonize Fallout Dust instead
they should have just made this the tv show!
I just love how this feel both a intro of Fallout (Not 4 or 76 ones), and with the bit of "The StoryTeller"
Well. Looks like its canon now
I must’ve missed something in the show? How is it canon?
@@nashandra6634People believe the little we see of New Vegas as it being destroyed.
@@ampersandyyy we literally see blown up gates and that there is nothing alive there
@@nolar120 for sure bro, there isn’t anyone living in bombed out buildings in Fallout, like ever.
@@ampersandyyy I doubt someone would live in such a dumpster that we're shown
though we do see small settlements around the Vegas, there are people for sure
so to stop the dust we need to throw general lee oliver from the dam
House's original goal was to turn the entire Mojave affair into "one man's misadventure", making scapegoats out of Oliver and Kimball. If NCR citizens believe their tax dollars were wasted on a vanity project, the sheer resentment would theoretically prevent an9ther invasion. Proof is present in one of Hanlon's endings, as he can use the anti-war sentiment to become a senator and vote against the more militant interests.
That said, House also drafted a treaty dealing with the distribution of clean water and electricity, and that was likely a major factor in pacifying the NCR. This Independent!Courier likely did not think that far ahead. Even if he did, the sheer number of bad decisions needed to set up Dust probably leaves him little resources to make good on the treaty.
Holy mother of God! This was amazing. I hung on every word and didn’t want it to end. So dark yet so good
This was fantastically well made, you can really feel the love that went into this, there were a few times where I honestly thought I was watching a Shoddycast video, very well done sir, very well done indeed.
This was great. I felt nostalgia like it was my first time watching shoddy cast while learning about fallout. Thanks for the great work
I just started my first DUST playthrough so it's a pleasant surprise to find this series. Great work!
It would be super cool to have a full mod following the Fall of New Vegas and have scripts that lead into Dust.
Yo Scott, you are the G.O.A.T. making an amazing lore series like this! Absolutely amasing.
Finally got around to this one because i wanted to give it my full attention. I love your music choices specifically. They bring so much to the video.
This is amazing! I love that you can see the shoddycast inspiration but it is own thing at the same time. Well done
TLDR; The courier went and got the bad ending to all the quests but was still able to kick the Legion and NCR out of the Mohjave and the NCR out of sheer embarrassment of losing to such a bumbling idiot of a Courier went crazy and thus somehow went and made things even worse
This was so well done. From all the visuals to the narration. Excellent video!!
Thank you for your Dust series! What an excellent lore series and great tribute to that mod author and heck the whole Fallout franchise. Cheers

I just watched your video essay on Dust and loved it so much that I thought I'd give this series a look. Thanks for combining it into this "film" as you're calling it.
This is one of the most well written and composed videos I have watched in a long time. First video I’ve seen by you. Instant subscriber!
I love the homage to the Storyteller. I, too, miss Shoddycast.
Beautiful made. Im so glad i found this channel yesterday!
I was sure at the end you were going to reveal that the narrator - this, 'Historian' - was in fact The Forecaster. You surely teased it. But, regardless, I absolutely loved this. As a huge fan of DUST, I try to get people to play it wherever I can, and most brush it off. I'm glad at least that I can now show them this, in place of them playing it - or to help finally convince them to brave the horrors and Begin Again.
I had flashbacks to Shoddycast in its heyday. I really hope you do others in the future, this was, excellent.
This brings me back to Shoddycast's Storyteller Series. Good Work!
Thank you for making this it was very good and I loved the Fallout Machinima feeling
great successor to Shoddy's storyteller we needed him back and you're a great reboot
Loved this entire series, its unfortunate it didnt get the views it deserved, but i hope that wont make you turn away from content creatio, i really like your style of videos and i am certain that if you continue and pick some interesting topics, then one day you will be at the top! Best of luck and i am looking forward to your next video!
I used to watch Shoddycast years ago. Missed this kinda content from them. Amazing work here.
Really fantastic and well put together video. I really enjoyed watching it! Well done to everyone who was involved in making this!
This was an excellent watch. Hat's off to you, Mr Thomas
Never made sense to me that the NCR would just end up becoming an evil force, yes they did some bad things every now and again but they were never legion levels of evil, hell the enclave has more sins to there name.
I wish that happen compared to there fate on fallout tv show
@@JohnDoe-sl6di Dude we haven't even seen the entirety of vegas yet.. and most people are agreeing it looks like an encompassing scenario of Vegas's abominations, cloud and tunnelers impacted the trade routes as depicted in the endings of New Vegas.
When you mimic old world America you end up like old world America
The Storyteller's essence radiates from this video like a nuclear spill. Very good. Makes me nostalgic for the series that sparked my love for this game series.
Edit: Just finished it and I gotta say. That ending. The nostalgia of hearing "even if that's a story for another day" hit me like a brick. I really hope you do more of this; I need more Storyteller content, even if it's not the original, I can feel the love you have for that series radiating from the screen.
In sincerity thank you for making this masterpiece Scott. You brought me right back to the feeling of waiting in anticipation for each new episode.
Thank you, i love dust and you made its lore a great justice with this series, exeptional work all, naration, the video, the lore.
Yeah right, Joshua Graham, who advocated for war against the White Legs would object to something as simple as cremation. Seems very in character.
Because he is Christian.
Might be a Mormonism thing
It’s a Fallout mod. Give it a break it’s doing its best.
he's probably touchy after his failed cremation
Damn bro this shit was the best fallout lore compilation I’ve heard in actual years, like god damn I thought what knew what Dust was about but now I really know, imma have to recommend you to my friends cause you explained it in such a way I really enjoyed, thanks for making this!
Im so looking forward to this I love me some fallout lore
Wow this was amazing. I have never been interested in dust before but after watching this I'm going to be downloading it this evening
Good luck! It's a great mod. Fallout 2 has some grear mods too
I love how you paid homage to the Storyteller from shoddycast I applaud you sir your storytelling is very excellent keep up the good work
this is super well made it feels like an official fallout narration scene I LOVE IT
Can’t get over how incredible this series is and so many years after the first time I was introduced to this mod. Bravo
I was just thinking about the shoddycast series yesterday and the algorithm brings me this video today!
Two minutes in and I already love it. So glad the algorithm led me to you dude, subscribed!
this video was sooo needed I am suprised nobody made this years ago but I am glad it came especially from a great guy like spaceman
Exceptional quality content, congratulations.
oh man, it's like I'm in my early teens and listening to Storyteller series
you've done outstanding job
Loved this video, the presentation style, and the way the descriptive storytelling was well translated into a single video-essay type format. I'd love to see one of these done for Naugrim's other mod FROST, which has similar detailed and well-executed storytelling, as well as official community expansions incorporated into its' canon. Most importantly, it shares the same overarching lore and themes of DUST, especially Letting Go, though in a little bit different of a sense.
Strong Story-teller vibes with this one. I like it. Glad someone's picking up the torch. I sincerely hope you do more, but understand if you don't.
Yoo it's all complete and so soon! Was busy with college and stopped around ep 5, so glad to see it's all done so quickly ❤

Awesome video! Gods this takes me back!
“A story for another day” I loved this so much
I am so glad i found your channel. This video is great
Phenomenal work man, keep it up!
Dude this video has got me hyped, Please make this into a story like the storyteller giving a story about living in the mojave with this character that you have just made
Found this on an old Pip-Boy 3000, labeled "Logs". Its helped me surive. Thanks.
This was a really great video, absolutely loved the deep dive into the story. Could we maybe see something similar for Frost someday?
Hey, awesome work man! i love your style, makes lore dives a blast!
This was well put together
Great narration - enjoyed listening to it
Damn this brings back the feel of the Shoddycast Storyteller stuff
Extremely well produced and narrated - although I have to wonder about the story of the mod itself. I never thought of the Cloud as a bio-weapon or something that could spread like an infectious strain. And why did the NCR go from neglectful and careless to outright genocidal? A lot of the stories seem to be about how people went mad and evil. I kind of don't buy the premises.
The narration jumps over some bits, NCR going oppressive went slower than they make it out to be, it escalated with time.
Cannibals didn't pop up for any reason, the cloud, dust storms and tunnelers don't only threat humans, the storm covered the sun, killing the plants, the tunnelers killed most animals that were sources of food, people had nothing to eat so they started eating each other, the situation was falling down, NCR tried to hold their little fortress together, doing what they could, taking radical choices.
People went cuckoo slowly as the world crumbled, just as the player might
i was legit waiting for the "and then the NCR began to eat babies inbetween worshipping satan and shooting puppies".
the mod is grimderp, that was always the intent.
I have tried intentionally to create the worst possible ending in New Vegas before and I don't think it was nearly this bad.
I love the tie in with the storyteller one of my favorite characters ever created

I love this. Before this series was made I was so interested in Dust I knew basically everything in this series, and its great that other people can learn more about it now.
considering that I only know of dust from the mike burn fire, zack hazard playthrough And during their run, they tried their best to figure out what happened, but Even with all of their exploring, they couldn't make heads or tails of the whole scenario and neither Could I. This greatly helps.
