- Fallout 4 is a game with no shortage of mystery and unexplained happenings in the Commonwealth. As a result, many Fallout 4 players have begun to propose their own theories and ideas regarding much of what goes on in the wasteland. So today we’ll be taking a look at five Fallout 4 theories that are absolutely terrifying.

Dogmeat... a synth? That sounds like something a synth would say. 🤨
But THAT also sounds like something a synth would say... Hmm...
@@gummyneighborino7217 You know who accuses people of being a synth? A synth. 😆

Its quite unnerving to walk into a room and there's 15 to 20 mannequins stood in the room for no apparent reason.
1987mrbenn rex is dog meat confirmed
Especially when the mannequins are all staring directly at you
I have a serious phobia of those bastards. I found one kn a Poloski Preservation Shelter in Far Harbor and had to stop playing the game. I hate those fucking things.
I always shoot them
Left-2-Write the mannequins scare you more than ghouls and deathclaws? Damn
Imagine if Bethesda had made it so if you walk into a room full of mannequins, there's a slight chance they all come to life and just swarm you. That would be terrifying.
Get the Whispering Hills Mod, you might just get your wish.
Well, the best you can get without mods is a room full of mannequins and among them there is a gen 2 synth hiding
Or if whenever all 20 of them are out of the frame, only 19 would reappear when you look at them again. One will vanish every single time, and it might take you a while to notice. You would think maybe you are mistaken. But once you find out you will continue to look away and back, away and back, until one remained. And you would freak out every time so there wouldnt have to be another twist. Aside from maybe a writing on a wall that says something like "out of the screen" or "behind the player".
Is there something behind you?
in Skyrim, the mannequins would move around. 😆
As a Whovian, that makes my eye twitch.
I like to imagine Mama Murphy walking around telling kids how they die
Yeah, I have absolutely no problem imagining Mama Murphy dealing out unwanted prophecies to other people's kids.
While on a shitton of drugs

Dogmeat wasn't a stray. He traveled to the area with the Minutemen you meet in Quincy. Whoever originally put that theory together must have just not paid much attention to dialogue.
isn't nick a friend to dogmeat before they met the sole survivor?
NewPaulActs17 well maybe he roamed around a little and then found the minute men
Momma Murphy also says she sent Dogmeat out to find you. Dog remains named Dog until this interaction, becoming dogmeat afterwards.
Sturges Is a synth too though. Just because he came from Quincy doesn't mean Dogmeat isn't a synthetic dog.
Yeah, but I didn't say that it did. All I said is that this particular theory, the one mentioned in this video, must have been made by someone who doesn't know the dialogue, since Dogmeat simply showing up at the Red Rocket was used as their main evidence.
Not only did the mannequins move 200 years ago, but they also moved thousands of years ago during the age of Skyrim.
Since you bring this up
My armor mannequins do change poses from time to time
Skyrim is a different Kalpa - one that arguably exists after the Fallout Universe, or before, but one of the strange anomalous creatures that changed over were the mannequins. In Skyrim, magic or daedra could be controlling them, or they're simply unknown. In Fallout? Nobody knows, but they only move when you're not looking at them.
@@wallamazoo01 the point is: that shit is creepy as fuck, bro
Skyrim would actually come after fallout 4, maybe on another planet that has elves, with probably some supermutants that mutated again, and aren't sterile somehow, and crashed on the uninhabited island of atmora. Some of the super mutants turned into behemoths, and others shrank to almost nord-size, and eventually they turned back into people as they kept breeding, and eventually we got like proto-nordic human in the land of atmora, and also a proto-giant (cuz giants in skyrim) and they eventually encountered elves, and yeah, the rest is history. They would've obviously had to start over from scratch and wouldn't have any firearms if supermutants were captured and being transported. Maybe the dwemer came and salvaged the ship, and based alot of their tech off the crashed ship. Makes sense, right?
@Liam Keogh yoo what the fuck ?!!!!!
Like a mod or just a glitch ?
Mannequins are actually a really good thing to have around your base. In the dark it would be hard to discern man from maniquen and you could snipe the wrong thing and alert the whole camp to your presence.
wouldn't matter if you hit the man or the mannequin. You'd still alert the who camp to your presence the moment you fired that first shot.
@@Princess_Celestia_ still, its better that the first shot hits the mannequin and not one of the living
@@Princess_Celestia_ you are om to nothing, why would they prefer there men than an inanimate object?
Whenever I encounter a mannequin, I always melee it so it falls over, then check to see if I can move it. If I can, I leave it alone. If I can’t, I use an entire clip of ammo on its face, because if a mannequin is too heavy to move, something is very, very wrong.
Sometimes they are synths
@@tomsmith6379 ...what? You real fam?
@@charlesatanasio7223 In one of the metro stations there's a group of mannequins in a circle. The first time I find it in a play through at least one is a synth
@@tomsmith6379 where is the location

The Dogmeat theory has a one glaring issue: Dogmeat was part of the Quincy group. Dialogue with Mama Murphy provides proof of that. I also suspect that the dead body you find on the road to Red Rocket is his previous own. Consider this: raiders attack the group, but Dogmeat and his own were basically the recon team, range ahead of the group and use Dogmeat's nose as a detection tool. Raiders ambush the group, owner sees that they're cut off from the others, panics and flees, takes a bullet or two and gets finished by a raider attack dog. Dogmeat takes shelter in Red Rocket, your character finds him, then you go on magical adventures of friendship and mini nukes.
sound legit
What
Also that nick knows who he is too meaning that hes just met the dog and the group before. Hell more than likely hes worked with dogmeat before on other cases
Honestly I always thought that the initial dead guy in the beginning that you get the tire iron and road leathers off of was his owner, which is why he was so friendly and well trained.
Better than mine….❤️
If you think about it, putting mannequins everywhere is a great alarm system. Aggressive intruders might mistake them for people and shoot, alerting you to their presence. Big building, base on top floor..... it's like an alarm. And it can set them up so u just have to stand still if u wanna trick em then shoot em. It's brilliant. I'd put them everywhere too. But I think it's a nod to nuclear test sites.
Alibi has joined the chat.
Edit: seriously though this is literally the premise of Alibi's gadget in Rainbow 6.
When I first started playing in a modded survival playthrough (where every firefight is deadly (as it should)) that's the first thing that came to mind as I peeped around a corner and saw a room full of mannequins. lol.
I thought, "If there were an NPC in between all of them standing still to get the drop on me, I'd have been f*cked rn."
@@DavidGarcia-pb9zn exactly lol
Yeah, especially a dumb super mutant or raider that's so strong out they just shoot at any shilouete. I was just thinking about that today while playing.
I've shot multiple mannequins thinking they're a person
"holding a machete" shot of maniquin holding a wooden board
That was its penis.
man its the new and improved machete get it right.
An "entity" known as Dogmeat has existed since Fallout 1 and made an appearance in every mainstream Fallout game except NV (and I had a Dogmeat mod).
Dogmeat is an otherworldly spirit who guides heroes to their destiny. (Maybe not in NV because even though we save Vegas, our original motivation is revenge).
While the "dog" may be different, the "spirit" is the same. 😉
Exactly like Maiq the liar in the Elder Scrolls games
Vault 111 was two experiments in one. First was the Cryo experiment, the other was to see how the staff and guards would react to the "All Clear" message not arriving.
that's why I hate vault tech. doctor braun and the rest of the staff were twisted...
Wait really? So no one was really meant to survive
@@user-xb4cr1ym4f its not confirmed but its definitely possible
Nah, I think the reason the all clear didn’t arrive was because there was no one left to send it. Vault tec probably just died off and were unable to aid their experiments.
@@Delete240 that would probably be correct if there weren't alot of vaults that were perfectly on course with their experiments and openings

Dude same
Got me too
Some folks have pointed out Mama Murphy's line "I know your pain" in the quest When Freedom Calls as further evidence of her having a son, like the Sole Survivor. Its a small line, but it fits the theory in context
Dogmeat theory : if you activate the dog bowl in nates house before the war he"ll say "never gonna find that dog".
Maybe Dogmeat is a decendant from nates dog which would explain why dogmeat may be familiar to nate.
Bruh what If Nate is still asleep in the cryo… and it’s all just a dream
I had this exact same idea in my head when I played fo4 once

Re dacted where they w h a t 😟
@Bob Ross’s Ghost @Peplar, yeah, there’s a bug in Skyrim which means the mannequins in player owned homes often spawn in as NPCs rather than static objects, walk a very short distance, then freeze in position. Can be pretty bloody creepy, even when you know that it happens and why.
Matt Rogers didn’t expect a reply this long after but thanks!

I think Dogmeat is a spirit of the wasteland, showing up to all of those that need his help. Kind of like the mysterious stranger
That's a good theory, but i think dogmeat is a synth not a spy but a synth, i mean he's 8n EVERY game
I love Nate and all his videos, but something in this that was clearly neglected is that Dogmeat was mama murphy's dog. she straight up tells you that when you first meet them in concord. woof.
At your first meeting she literally tells you that she is not the owner of dogmeat.
She said that group of Minutemen worked with Dogmeat and that she send him to search for help. Not that he is hers.
Agreed Gandalf, she calls him a free spirit, but knows good people when he meets them
Maybe Dogmeat isn't scared of the Sole survivor beaucause the sole survior still smell like before the war a "clean smell" and dogmeat already know what smells to avoid like the smell of raiders or gouls ect...
Sir you may be onto something
*sniff sniff* this guys ignorant lets get him to feed and protect us , muhahahaha!
@@mattasticmattattack8546 Hell. How the fuck did Dogmeat track Kellogg halfway across the damn map? FO4 is huge
He tracked Kellogg using the items used by him like the cigar, beer bottle and bloodied bandages. It's because of the scent left by Kellogg recently.
Maybe dogmeat was a vault-Tec survivor as well, and was released around the same time our protagonist was lol 🤔🧐
You..... named your character George W Bush?
@High Overlord Snarffie Beagle or like Waluigi
High Overlord Snarffie Beagle Did you make your wife look like Peggy?
Geroge W,. Bush
I made mine Nigel thornberry
Lol I noticed that he named his character that too 😂
My personal headcanon is that Dogmeat has been the same dog for all the games (minus NV and 76), that he took a lick of some FEV in the first game and just stayed immortal throughout the years, moving from west to east and losing friends along the way.
It a different dog, it's canon he dies in 1
please tell me im not the only one who thought there was a slight dirty joke about where you find dogmeat
South parks episode "red rocket game" comes to mind.
LMAO RED ROCKET. I can't believe that went over me and a lot of people's heads
Plus his name is Dog Meat
Actually, in the quest “Getting a clue”
In Kellogg’s secret room, if you suggest to use dogmeat to track Kellogg, nick will say “not a bad idea, some dogs in the commonwealth can track a man for miles”
“Some dogs in the commonwealth” implies there are other dogs out there, unless he’s referring to mutant hounds or mongrels, which doesn’t seem likely, therefore dogmeat being a synth because of his un-mutated nature is a throw away point
Pixelking34 unmutated dogs have been seen though lol, raiders can have them
You’re right just because you don’t see them doesn’t mean there aren’t any
Well, there's Gene, the wandering dog seller whose dogs are "normal". Then there's Erickson, the friendly Super Mutant who lives in the crashed airliner on Far Harbor Island who also sells normal dogs. So I guess these guys must be getting their dogs from somewhere, or someone.
It's cool if when you first meet Erickson you have Old Longfellow in tow. A unique conversation between them will take place, and if you then respond favourably with Erickson, Longfellow will "like" it.
@@Markus_Andrew exactly. There is a seller who sells normal dogs in the commonwealth. You can buy one from him
let's be honest it's just a game
My only question is how the note is intact UNDER WATER
I dunno, it just works.
Erm, uh. Futuristic ink and paper-
Bethesda
SpongeBob confirmed
ancient dragon lol true but that's why we love em
I honestly never saw the mannequins as supernatural. I saw it as a depressing reminder that there are some people in the wasteland that don't have families, friends, loved ones, enemies, anything really. I always saw them in these positions as the less stable wastelanders desperately trying to humanize anything around them, so they don't feel so lonely...
Like in I am legend
Well that is depressing…
Theres already an explanation for dogmeat. He belongs to the minutemen, and someone (probably preston) sent him out to find help while they were under seige in the museum of freedom à la Lassie. You can hear Marcie Long mention something about it if you stick around long enough to hear their random dialogue.
if you look out the window in the very first part of the game in prewar sanctuary, your character remarks, "We're never going to find that dog." and see a dog house and bowl in the empty back yard....coincidence?? meybe.
It is someone stole their dog
Mathew Culver black, no doubt
maybe the theory of dogmeat being part of the institute and the fact that the player character lost his dog( if you activate the dog bowl at the start of the game he/she tells you that they never found there dog)could both be true as the institute found dogmeat a little after the bombs droped and turned him into a spy. just a thought.
Vault 111 froze dog meat
@@vectorforce5748 dogmeat's not a ghoul
I just started playing this game and i love it. I had a weird experience with the mannequins, I was exploring Spectacle Island and saw some mannequins inside a container and when I unlocked the workshop there I was scrapping stuff and when I went to the container to scrap the mannequins, it was no longer there. The mannequins disappeared.
Dogmeat was also in fallout 3. My theory: He's an immortal being sent to help specific entities achieve certain tasks, possibly by an entity either aligned with/against Ug-Qualtoth? Considering that, in fallout 3, Dogmeat could "respawn" with the puppies perk getting stronger each time he did so. I believe that he is meant to guide important people and ensure that certain events happen, because in fallout 4 dogmeat appears outside Kellogs house whether he was your companion or not. Fate? Divine intervention? Who knows...
I thought Dogmeat is based off the dog from A Boy and His Dog. So it would make more sense that like that dog, Dogmeat is telepathic and intelligent. So knowing you are a Pre-War vault dweller that is uncorrupted by the wasteland then you would make the perfect companion for him.
I always thought the mannequins were put there by raiders, etc. as bait or to confuse potential attackers into giving away their position or something.
This, and lonely/crazy people wanting 'friends'. Though that doesn't really explain some of them, namely those underwater ones.

Raider 2:Nice!You find anything good in the wreck?
Raider 3:No,it was all wet,whole thing
Raider 1:...Jeff...You have some problems....How did you even survive?
+Ja Ma Quite so.
Doesn't the institute use them as spies or something? I thought I saw a reference to that somewhere.
If u never met Dogmeat and proceed in the main quest up to the point u have to track down Kellog, Nick says that he has a friend who can help out in that particular case.
Than he sends a signal that only Dogmeat can hear and Dogmeat appears in Diamond City to help finding Kellog.
Weird
Maybe Dogmeat belonged to Nick before he left the Institute?
Bruno Franca ds
Nathan Lomas Nick left the Institute with Dima. But there is no mention of him leaving with Dogmeat
Bruno Franca I meant like while Nick was part of the Institute. I honestly haven't really learned much about him though, I only really interacted with him while looking for Kellog and going into the glowing sea.
Yesterday I spent 8 hours trying to join the mannequin faction with no success 😕
This mannequin thing makes this entire game horrifying … Especially when you can’t pick them up like other objects… most creepy feeling in the game 😰
How do you pick up items?
@@calamaribowl8683 a bit late but if I remember correctly you can pick up stuff by holding E
Dogmeat isnt a spy nor a synth, it's been said that synth animals have started not too long ago and they are close to perfecting the gorillas and before they only finished the crows, also dogmeat always roamed around the commonwealth helping people in need from master to master until he met the minutemen and ran to look for help and saw red rocket for supplies or anyone then found you
If you don't meet him, Nick will introduce you to him during the search for Kellogg's frosted flakes.
I was going to add that there's evidence against Dogmeat being a synth (though I'll admit it's an interesting fan theory, but still a fan theory nonetheless). If he was a synth then that would make Mama Murphy and all who are acquainted with him a synth too because they have specific dialogue about how he's such a good boy. If he truly were meant to just be a spy on the survivor, then what would be the point of having him wander around helping other folks too? The only reason I can think of is to test his functions and see how well he performs which would be a great idea, but at what cost? The amount of time and resources it would take to accomplish said task would be kinda wasteful since they only just started getting animal synths right. I found the whole animal synths thing more as a nod to "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" anyways, but I digress. I believe the synth crows/birds were the real spies. 1. They're smaller and less noticeable therefore making them less of a target. 2. Resource-wise it would make a lot of sense to mass produce such birds to spy considering they can fly, hide in plain sight, etc etc. 3. Easier to manage than sending out just regular synths hoping they don't get caught.
Anyways, that's just one man's perspective on the matter.
@@WondrousLanternProductions I think nick might be a synth he is affiliated with dogmeat.
yeah he's already known around the commonwealth as a helpful dog. nick and other companions knew him prior to meeting the sole survivor
@@napatora He’s just cool.
I just realized...
How in the first theory is there a price of paper underwater?!
Magic
Same way you can find fresh barrels of food in caves no one has entered in centuries in skyrim, or how you can find lit torches underwater.
Game desiiiiiigggggnnnnn
It could have just been written in waterproof ink. If you were on a ship you might write in ink that would survive water.
@@EcclesiastesLiker-py5ts it's not about the ink paper would just decompose in 2-6 weeks
Whoever wrote must have not understood the physical limitations of life underwater.
Oh well, into the fire.
While Dogmeat's presence does seem quite strange, the odds of it are somewhat irrelevant, as Mama Murphy talks about his meeting you as fate, almost as if Dogmeat is something like the mysterious stranger in a way.
Love how you challenge people not just to accept the story but to question how when and why as well. Great job Nate.
I wonder if the mannequins are a reference to the Skyrim glitch where mannequins would "come to life"?
This is what I thought. Reference to Skyrim's (and Oblivion's) creepy moving mannequins.
They are definitely scary. In Skyrim, I had a mannequin that was in my room in Whiterun. When I woke up it was in my room and I screamed. I was playing on the Ps3 when it happened (mods wasn't allowed in 2011).
we can have both you know.. a god and an easteregg for older games...
LOL One of the mannequins in my house keeps going around in circles
"What is it? Dragons?"
*Sees mannequin standing next to the bed.*
*mannequin looks down*
"Takes a fair bit of strength to carry a greatsword like that. But can you use it?"
Dogmeat may be a psychopomp. Normally these entities are responsible for taking souls to the afterlife, not judging, just transportation. But psychopomps can also be guides during life transitions. And leaving a vault to a horrific wasteland is a pretty big transition from a normal suburban life. Dogmeat is also the one companion that will never leave you, no matter your decisions. It's a little creepy, but Dogmeat might just _look_ like a dog because he's in A Form You Are Comfortable With.
Or, i know this is a stretch, but he's just a dog.
-Arent we overthinking this a bit?-
Can you explain how do other characters can see and interact with the goodest of boys
Never thought about it that way,but from a perspective it might even end up being true.
We can’t rule out the supernatural, as even Fallout has its supernatural elements.
And he helped Nick and mama murphy
Anecdotal evidence for institute dogmeat: in my most recent playthrough I finally decided to have a companion, I chose Cait as early as I could and sent dogmeat to sanctuary before even level 10. Anyway, i eventually got to Diamond city and started the Kellogg quest, and after I broke in to his house and found some evidence, Nick told me to have Dogmeat track the smell… The only way Nick could’ve known Dogmeat ever existed or if I even encountered him at all would be if the institute had planned on it for a long time, as Nick even remembers the name unprompted
Also when I stepped outside dogmeat was right there waiting, last I checked he was in sanctuary… teleportation?
But....Dogmeat was part of the Preston Garvey crew, wasn't he? When you rescue them in the museum, Mama Murphy is the one who tells you his name, and goes on to say that Dogmeat brought someone to help them. He wasn't just randomly at Red Rocket or coincidentally a good boy, he was searching for someone to help the Garvey crew and was a good boy probably because of being raised by them.
"you would only tell that to a child you are very close to. ie. a child".TheEpicNate315, 2018
Dylan Harshman I only went through the comments to find something like this 😂😂
You said that the wrecked ship had a mannequin wielding a machete but it's clearly a board
Was about to say that too
Common folk
Fucking mannequins.
BTW how is a NOTE of PAPER readable underwater and like 200 years old :p
Maybe it was a domminatrix thing..?
It looks like a machete. Reskinned board. It also protected the note probably to draw in worshippers.
I think Dogmeat is one of teo things, either he's a dog belonging to a recently deceased settler or a dog that is wild but is friendly, this isn't unheard of among dog rescuers in eastern European countries.
Dogmeat is a member of Preston Garvey's party that was sent ahead to find Sanctuary. Its clearly stated in the game lore.
Do not bad mouth Dogmeat, he's a good boy and my friend.
fricking subbing
I will never forget in fallout 3 the first time dogmeat died. I sadly walked over to his corpse and in his inventory...
Cody W stop that
Dogmeat is a synth
@@codyw1023 You know it's not the same one right
Dogmeat came from Quincy with Garvey''s group of settlers. Mama Murphy even says she sent Dogmeat ahead to find help when they holed up in the museum in Concord.
LifelessTooth she does not say that be was with them, she just says that Dogmeat is good at finding people who needs help
If he wasn't with them, how would she know that. She clearly spoke as someone who knew him.
But no one really knows when/If he was born.
And it would make sense that DogMeat could be a Synth, since Sturges is also a Synth. Sadly, lazy writing could also be true. DogMeat from FallOut 3 was found when his owner was killed by Raiders. Plus making DogMeat count as a full follower was also very lazy. So glad for a good modding community.
DogMeat doesn't count as a true follower. Perks that require you to be alone still work with DogMeat. Unless you are simply referring to having both DogMeat and another follower then yeah.
*Is holding a plank of wood*
"Holding a machete!"
Bruh... Wha?
Father reveals that he remotely released you from your cryopod. The terminals in vault 111 reveal that the cryopods of every resident in the vault were remotely shut down (i.e. not shut down from within the vault) thereby killing everyone except for the player. So father killed them all and likely ordered the players' wife/husband killed.
Kellogg wasn't meant to kill the spouse, it was a last resort type death in order to obtain clean DNA (Via Shaun). If you talk to Father, he is sad that his parent was killed but it wasn't supposed to happen that way
Dogmeat has been in the franchise since fallout one. Hes a mascot of sorts.
He was originally a husky, then changed to a German shepherd to better match the voice actor.
The 109's valt boi is tru mascut
I read somewhere that there’s multiple dogmeats they’re all descendants the last one (different breed might just be for show) and go around helping good people. Idk where I read it tho
Löwenstolz Trumpet oh no i am the 76th person to like this...
My Dogmeat theory is very simple, he is Bethesda's Fallout version of a sort of M'aiq the Liar (Elder Scrolls). Different cat ,same name. M'aiq the Liar is in all the Elder Scrolls that I've played, at least going back to Elder Scrolls Morrowind. The M'aiq the Liar you encounter in Skyrim, mentions that his father's name was M'aiq the Liar, and his father before that. The difference is that Dogmeat, no matter what, is always destined to accompany the hero, just as his ancestors did in FO3 with the Lone Wanderer and the Courier in New Vegas. In the next Fallout, one of Dogmeat's (from FO4) offspring will do the same and so on. A blood line of dogs, fated to accompany great heroes on their journeys, generation after generation.
The most scary theory is eating that canned meat and not getting the runs.
One sush boi you need to download the diarrhea mod first
There actually is a dialogue with a random person you meet who says he got the runs from that canned meat and says you probably want to stay away from him for obvious reasons. He gives you the rest of the meat even if it was bad and walks away. You also get a quest from it. Just a fun fact :)
Isabela Ristova Surprisingly I actually remember that exact encounter
Long neck loukowski and he was using ghoul meat
What about eating all the other weird shit like... Pink paste.. Ghoul meat.. Catmeat... Etc
Mama Murphy sent Dogmeat to sanctuary because she foresaw him bringing back help...
And that’s why she knows his name
I like that dogmeat theory, considering dogmeat is immortal and cannot be killed, he often wanders off and is unable to be found (perhaps making institute reports), is able to carry a weight well more than any normal dog would be able to, often get the "dogmeat found something" notice as if it was planted there and he already knew where to find it.
So those mannequins are controlled by a malevolent god? Looks like Fallout has its own Daedra.
Dr. Virus 129 could be a thing in 76
Hibekaze veteran duelist doubtful, but perhaps in Fallout 5. 76 is not going to be like previous titles, do not expect it to be riddled with stories. With no NPCs anywhere, and the fact that you will be one of the first people to step into the new world, we will get easter eggs and perhaps some mysterious notes at best.
Skeletoriels, PSN fair enough was an idea lol
There is a huge theory that fallout and elder scrolls is set in the same universe
Skeletoriels, PSN its probably the main story then not many side quests, but more indepth of what why and how the world became as it did and how the different societies are dispersed ?
Dogmeat is not a stray. Nick Valentine had worked with him, at least that what Nick says. Plus the minute man in concord set him out for according to Mama Murphy
Destroyer no she saw him finding someone he wasn't with them
That dogmeat one would have been a FANTASTIC twist. You meet Shaun, and he tells u he just releases you to "see what would happen" the sole survivor confronts him, saying he would just release us to die in the wasteland? Shaun stares for a moment, "I was with you dad... every step of the way.... you just didn't know it"
Maybe the mannequins are a secret batch of synths that were all shut down at the same time because the institute discovered a bunch of them escaped.
When fighting off the raiders and helping the minutemen in the museum of freedom there’s a room that’s full of manikins that may seem normally weird, if you knock them all down and walk out the museum and walk back in and go to the room full of manikins there is a small chance of all the manikins standing up again
Title: 5 theories that are actually terrifying
Number 2: mama Murphy has a son
*boo*
Ajax AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
But he is a raider
It’s also a bad theory, there is nothing to it at all. Woman that enters a small community has a psychic premonition because she is standing in the presence of a man who will spend his adulthood trying to kill her. She(high on chems, duh) tells him. No one believes her because...chems... and then it actually happens. The kid finds out premonitions are real and spends his life trying to have them because having them will keep him safe. What part of that necessitates being her son? Stupid theory.
Parnman wait i think I’m confused by your wording. It’s a theory because they have psychic premonitions, which is pretty unique in the world of fallout. Because one is an older lady and the other is a young boy, people suspect they are mother and son. There aren’t a ton of details to prove this, but honestly there aren’t a ton of details to most of the theories on the games. It makes sense to me.
I heard a line from Mama Murphey talking about dogmeat in the quest in the museum of freedom; she was saying somthing along the line of how dogmeat saved them and lead help to them. At first I thought it was just her spouting one of her "Jet Lines" again seeing this and thinking about the story behind Mama murphey im beginning to think it was prestons group that send dogmeat out for help, maybe because of the attack we encounter in concord?
The fact that DOGMEAT is found at a RED ROCKET gas station is still one of the favorite dirty references in fallout
Umm, what is the ref?
Another possibility for Dogmeat:
When leaving Sanctuary across the bridge towards Concord, the sole survivor will find a fresh corpse of a raider and mutated dog. Since the bodies are so fresh, maybe Dogmeat was with that raider who was his owner (in this hypothesis) until his untimely end. This would also explain why Dogmeat would go to Red Rocket, which is one of the closest building to the corpses.
Aristo Demos the minute men sent dogmeat to get help
@@AllweHaveIsTime Maybe I missed something, but I did not see anything to support this conjecture aside from Mama Murphy's comment about Dogmeat, but I attributed that to her fortune-telling abilities. Were there more instances of Dogmeat being referred to as in connection to the minutemen or the survirors in Concord? If so, what were they?
Aristo Demos that-
That’s a random encounter.
@missingindy, what is, the dead raider just outside Sanctuary? I’m pretty sure it’s been there every time I’ve watched somebody start a playthrough, and it was there when I started mine. Seems a bit more than just coincidence.
I mean that I think it’s a fixed spawn, not necessarily that it’s Dogmeat's owner, _that_ could be coincidental. I guess...
4:08 "astronomically low, those are the odds. nearly impossible", except that he was sent there by Mama Murphey because the minute men own him. its like you didnt even play the game
True, i usually left Dogmeat there cuz i didnt want him to get hurt. But once i went to rescue Preston WITH Dogmeat and Mama Morphy started talking about Dogmeat. I was like whaaaaaaa?! Thats cool!!!!
There's still the whole Nick Valentine angle to consider. He will introduce you to Dogmeat personally, if you avoided the encounter at the Red Rocket.
I've always liked the theory that in every single fallout game, the main character is actually a synth. In fallout for, when you join the Institute, its said that all the synths have a system installed called V.A.T.S. well, I think it was just those special synths that were the most human.
yea but I'm pretty sure you can't use VATS until you pick up the pipboy when you escape vault 111
“George W. Bush” 😂 Always knew he’d survive a “Nucculure War”
The thumbnail totally lead me to believe he was going to give a gnome conspiracy.
...The gnome's are truly to blame ya know. It was gnome's I say!
It's always the gnomes!
Matthew Mulligan Just like in zOMG!~ lol 😂
people say it was the feud between real world leaders that caused the launching of the nukes
but in reality it's the gnomes who dropped them
the gnukes
the guh-nomes
My theory is that all the gnomes are Made in China and they’re really spies.
I can't take dogmeat as a companion. If someone shoots him I go on a psycho induced rampage
Yeah when someone like Nick gets shot I'm just like "Way to go fucktard".
Dogmeats shit, always in the fucking way
Iv accidently shot dogmeat multiple times while he's holding onto someone lmao
Hurr Durr I do in real life if someone shoots him
your face (profile pic) really proves that
My theory on dogmeat is that he is some scrapped experiment by the institute has lost the ability to keep tabs on it. This is because when you first meet the father he seems surprised at all that you made it to him, let alone survived, I don’t think he planned on you having a guide to help you
The most remarkable thing about Dogmeat is that there is no way to turn him away. Like, there is no way to say "no, I don't want a companion" to the dog.
1:21 That's no machete, it's a nail board.
I'm having a bad day and just the thought of how sweet Dogmeat is is making me almost cry
He does bbq up nicely.
I got a therioe that dogmeat is actually a long descendant of your dog, how you may ask? Because when your exploring your house your character comes across a dog dish and says "when are we going to find this dog" and that's what I think lol
You meet Dogmeat at the “Red Rocket”. I can just picture the writers room when this was pitched.
Real late but dogmeat could've been owned by the dead raider right outside of sanctuary
Well, never thought of that dude
hm, raider killed by feral dog, dogmeat kills feral dog and goes to look for help/bew owner, finds you.
I’m a year late, but dogmeat came with the minutemen from Quincy
@@askinredroads5132 no there’s a tire iron wedged in the mongrels side. So dogmeat didn’t kill it most likely
@@citrinemuscleboi forgot about that! thank you

4:42 yes! Or that could match with deacon's theorie, he was watching us all the time between out of shelter and meeting the group at the end of liberty road.
Man talk about the mannequins in skyrim. Back when I got my house in riften I came back to it after coming and going a few times, I then noticed my mannequins had moved closer and closer to the stairs leading to the main floor from the basement where they originally stayed. Little to say, I never went back because fuck that
6:23 sooooo the night mother, and you’re the listener. Got it.
Sasha omg skyrim :0
....yeah pretty much XD
Or Mephala
Theodore Howard is incapable of originality.
I like to think that each dog meat is hyper-intelligent, for a dog, due to mutations and/or radiation exposure. Especially fallout 4 dogmeat. He seems to be very aware of his surroundings and the things he can do. also why do people always forget that Preston's group sent dogmeat to go find help? That's why it was kind of convenient for him to be there
Didn't mama murphy send dogmeat to meet the sole survivor? One of her lines upon meeting her is "Dogmeat sure did find us some help. Just look at ya." It would make sense considering her "sight" that she would have had to do this in order to save them...
Nate kind of a trash theorizer
I feel like dogmeat might have bee born in a vault hense the healthy-ness, also it would make sense why they see you as friendly because most people are still wearing the vault suit and he might associate the two.
Dogmeat is a pre-war ghoul. The fur covers up his scars. He hangs around vaults because he's used to helping survivors from other vaults. In his experience, people who come from vaults treat him better than other people in the wasteland so he has traveled throughout the wasteland searching for vaults with new people coming out.
We've met ghoul animals, they don't look like that.
Michael Hall ghouls lose their hair or fur dumbass
I agree that Dogmeat could be an especially well-preserved Pre-War Dog, and I think it's a more than likely since Dogmeat knows Mamma Murphy AND our good friend Nick Valentine. As such, I like your theory and it is now my headcannon.
Okay...? Dogmeat seems like a morbid joke on the fact that people eat dogs in Fallout due to food needs. It's probably a common name.
@YayDude123 maybe a dog version of Gary, immortal dogs that were released into the wasteland, kinda like the cat vault that opened after some timer ended
So you're not gonna talk about the gnomes murdering people or teddy bears doing what ever they do?
Gaming King Nate has covered killer bears. It is a copycat killer, leaving scenes of art.
Seriously, very questionable Teddy bear behavior in the Commonwealth. Gnomes, teddy bears, and souvenir sloths are the true evil in the 'wealth
Aren't teddy bears meant to be stand ins for children's corpses/skeletons?
Brandon Welsh i dont think children do surgery and also die while doing it.
Brandon Welsh I think you’re right. In one of the many corpses I found in the game, one had a baby stroller with a teddy bear in it. I doubt this lady was pushing around a teddy bear all the time
Early in the game when you storm the museum, there are mannequins everywhere. However, if you die and go back in, their positions will have changed.
The creation club mod "Children of Ug-Qultoth" adds a ghoul-like enemy that also helps makes the theory that the mannequins are alive seem plausible. The enemy makes it so these new creatures that only move and attack when no one is looking at them. If you look at them, they'll turn to stone. Look away, you'll be dead before you look back.
Also, just because I like being chaotic, I would definitely be one of those people who goes out of my way to set up the poses just to spook people.
I see evil gnome on thumbnail, I click.

Hey! I’m not evil
Yes you are evil, TheModernGnome lol. Joking with you.
Olgierd Boratyński killer keanstar
The mannequins are there to scare the player into thinking it’s an NPCs. It’s proven itself effective on me many times. But clearly the writers had some fun with it
dogmeat is actually famous in the commonwealth. he’s well known by many of your allies. if you never encounter dogmeat, go straight to diamond city with nick, and to kellogg’s place, nick says he’s calling in a “specialist” he knows, and makes this really high pitched whistle, then when you go back out of kellogg’s place, dogmeat is there, waiting. also, the minutemen survivors clearly encountered him previously despite having not made it to the red rocket. he’s just a helpful little fellur.
5:10 Dogmeat has been in other fallout games, he might be some sort of paranormal being himself. I mean he is damn near invincible.
_ Pokemonlink246 Its because Bethesda are bad at writing and force random elements of Fallout 1 and 2 where they dont belong. Cant wait to see them somehow figure out a way to shoehorn supermutants, deathclaws, the brotherhood of steel, dogmeat and the enclave into yet another place where they dont belong.
ok, but for #3...
...there's a mannequin right next to those notes and stealth boys. What if it's NOT a person, but rather...well....#1?
Should we question why you've named your character George W. Bush ?
No.
Geroge W. Bush*
Bush did 10/23
Idiot savant
[OSK] B1az3kin I named mine George H.W Bush
mama murphy and some other characters have dialogue about dogmeat. apparently, he wandered from settlement to settlement, spreading his doggish love wherever he went. he was likely raised on the streets of diamond city, lost his owner to the wasteland, but kept going back to the places his previous owner would frequent for supplies, until deciding to explore on his own, only to return for emergencies.
This video motivates me to play the game again. One of the theories was about dog meat being sent by th le institute, but when I played again, moms murphey said "dog meat really found us somebody, look at you" so dog meat was sent by the trapped settlers not institute
Actually Dogmeat is something else. Mama Murphy claims that she knows Dogmeat from his earlier days, when she was known as Murphy the Madwoman (for tearing off a raider head with her bare hands. Yeah, I don't buy that part either.). Well, Muprhys younger days was. If I go on the safe side and say that Murphy is 60, that was still about 40 years ago. According to pedigree.com, 20 years for a german shepherd is 145 years for a human. However, Dogmeat is not a synth, since he does not drop a synth component (Sturges does, despite him being essential). So what's going on with this seemingly biologically immortal hound?
When Mama Murphy tells tales of unbelievable triumph, she is actually breaking the fourth wall and poking at the game mechanics. You can kill someone with your fists and have their head come off like a rock’m sock’m robot. As with her story about killing a deathclaw with nothing but a pipe pistol and one bullet, this is referencing the fact that any and all humanoid settlers can fire weapons endlessly with only one bullet in their inventory, as well as not being able to be killed by anything besides the main character. A settler can defeat a deathclaw with one bullet. As for dogmeat, He has been around forever in the fallout universe (120+ human years from F1 to F4) much like Maiq The Liar of The Elder Scrolls. Coincidentally, a cat. Maiq claims to be a descendant of the previously known Khajiit with identical names, but as he often lies and taps the fourth wall like Mama Murphy, one is left to speculate their own version of the truth.
Dogmeat is kind of a supernatural spirit itself, seeing that he was also in Fallout 2 and Fallout 3.
planescaped He was in the first Fallout as well. That’s where I get the idea that (if it is the same dog) he is over 120 years old. The time gap between Fallout 1 and Fallout 4.
I believe Mama Murphy could have ripped off a raider's head. Buffout is a chem in the Fallout world, after all.
When did Nick have time to get to know Dogmeat?
Reupload because previous one had weird audio issues and for whatever reason literally had no recommendations page.
TheEpicNate315 that explains why I couldn't watch it :D I thought there was something wrong with my phone xD
Same.
you called a board a machete around 1:30. pay more attention man. dont let those things slip and call it a day. be more professional, and your content will be even better.
Lucas Biermann but let's be honest. From afar it does look like hugenormous machete. Mistakes like that are easy to make :)
the problem Moa is that in this video it is shown twice and the second time is even closer, and he probably had even more time to look at it as he was editing the video. not saying he made a bad video just because of that but if he takes a little more time to take those little mistakes out only shows his professionalism, making the channel better and get more people to subscribe to it.
Dogmeat being a synth sounds about right honestly. A companion left by Shaun
