Cool username.
A very GigaChad statement
Can you imagine if thoes filters infected the Brotherhood, Plants running around in power armor.
that´s funny , im late
I'm late as well
Ghost of Ronin That would be the fucking worst enemy ever he would just murder everyone
Nah Cazadores in Power armor now that would be scary
@@justvibin3464 Got a point there.
Me: i killed a mini green jungle dude cool loot
Oxhorn: could this have been a baby or small child i had to kill? I dont even want to contemplate that
I went into this vault blind, BEFORE activating any quests, because I'm a curious little sot who roves the Wasteland looking for adventure. I sure found one here! I went inside, and thought. "Ooo! A Vault! If anywhere has an adventure waiting, it'd be here!" I walked inside, confused by its verdant nature. And ran into my first Spore Carrier, which was very much difficult for me to put down with my trusty general-use rifle and gave no warning it was there before it jumped me (If I did know it was there, it would have been a different story, I play a sniper build usually and if I see it first it's usually dead before it has a chance to see me at all, except, of course. F**king Cazadores and tougher Deathclaw variants.). I did survive and killed it, Stimmed up, and said. "Alright, it's gonna be one of THOSE, innit? Welp, better go get the right equipment." I turned around on the spot and left. Walked all the way back to my home base in the Abandoned BOS Bunker. Got my own fully modded and upgraded flamethrower out, and all the flamer fuel I had, and came back. I walked through that plant-infested hellhole toasting every patch of plants I saw until I was satisfied that anything dangerous to me within was charcoal, humming a merry tune all the while. Not a single spore carrier took me by surprise again, due to being on fire before I knew they were there and thus announcing their presence politely by burning and dying.
Do you think I'm jaded from my travels?
what an appropriate response to a plant infested vault. Mother Nature beware
You are a great story teller XD
Cool story bro.
So you went full on Pyro from TF2, sounds fun.
Your method is great brother. The emperor would be proud of your purging

I went into Vault 22 with a flamethrower and some bricks of C4 plastic explosives! Trust me on this, you'll need them! This little Vault of horrors needs a baptism by 🔥
That reminds me, since I'm on my 6th play-through, I'll get my Cleansing Flame and purify the Vault. Or I''ll just bust out the USAS-12 or the LSAT. (Keep in mind, the two guns I mentioned are mods. I play a heavily modded version of New Vegas.)
Alex Zandate I use the C4 to ignite the flammable gas in the vents after finding Keeley. It's so much easier than throwing a grenade or using a gunshot to set off the caustic explosion
In all of my past runs, I've found out that the Long Fuse Dynamite is the best thing to use besides C4. It gives you more than enough time to run to the data room and close the door to shield yourself and any other companions with you from the flames.
Alex Zandate Exactly! When you plan to ignite the gases, time is of the essence. The more time you have to escape and ward yourself from the explosion, the better!
I went thru it with a heavy incinerator, torched every spot of green I saw! Spore carriers never had a chance! long fuse dynamite, grenades, or time bomb all work well for igniting the gas as long as you hide in the data terminal room, no blast effect there!
I love this quest not only for the story but we also get one of the best quotes by Dr. Hildern "Too many people have opinions on things they know nothing about. And the more ignorant they are, the more opinions they have." And this is truer in these hard times.
Very true, the sake news media was always spreading covid lies about deaths and jabs that were so called vaccines
Jesus. I came across Vault 22 for the BoS quest sleep deprived at 3 in the morning, with my mental state at its weakest. I thought, "Meh. Another Vault. The plants kill? Probably confused vault dwellers not seeing the mantises in the grass." Oh how wrong I was. I had no companions with me, and the silence got to me, only fractured briefly by the mysterious noises from the basement, long before I discovered the plants. Lets just say I clipped through the vault as quick as possible then went to sleep after.
Bilobo Baggins that's funny it was like 2 am when I found the vault and I was creeped out even with companions
The first time I went there, I got so scared I actually walked out of the vault and never went back to it for almost a month.
I went in guns blazing
I left the vault after I saw my first zombie. Never went back for anything.
I just walked into the vault to see what was inside and two minutes later, im running, screaming, and crying for my mom.
Plants only use purple parts of light and reflect green. That's why they are green. So if you shine purple lights on them, you give them all the energy they need without wasting energy on other wavelengths. It's normal practice irl and I bet most vaults used purple lights to grow their food.
AlHoresmi what about UV light?
AlHoresmi plants are green because of chloroplast in plants.
Chlorophyll*
@@kipechawolfeortiz8791 dude, chloroplast contain chlorophyll which absorbs all light except green which it reflects giving it a green colour. That's how we perceive objects. Plants use red and blue parts of the electromagnetic spectrum but absorb all except green.
AlHoresmi if u know this then why don’t u know what the “PuRpLe LiGHt” is called
Maybe UV rays
vault 22 looks like a nuclear weed farm
You turn into a spore carrier if you smoke too much of that nuclear kush 😩
That would make it vault 420
Brick Tamland that actually sounds like a cool idea for a vault
Snoop dogg approves
Everyone in vault 22 died because they smoke to much weed
*Oxhorn:* “Vault 22 had a unique experiment.”
*Me:* _thinks of Vault 11, Vault 13, Vault 81, Vaults 3, 76, 81, 87,101, 111, 112, 114, basically every Vault that’s a Vault-Tec “Vault”_
The most twisted experiments were 87 and 11
How do you make the text italic?
I lied, and she let me go free, with the data. My question is, should i give it to NCR or the Brotherhood?
Nevermind, i discovered a way to complete both. Give the data to the Brotherhood first, they dont take it, but the quest is cleared, leaving you free to give it to NCR and complete that quest too.
lance cring what if I'm disliked by the brotherhood
@Alexis Versa its okay i started a new playthrough im now idiolized by the BOS
@@berzerkov4358 play lonesome road, prevent something from launching *spoiler*
I lied, got the data, went back, sold the data after blackmailing him & got a shit load of caps.
@@2psah2 I didn't lie so shot her, then didn't give the data to anyone and just used commands to get a bunch of caps, job done.
I study plant biology and means of pest control as a consequence and I have to say that Vault-tec's idea to use these spores as pest control isn't that far fetched or odd and in actuality the chance an organism changes its host (from pest of choice to human) is extremely small, especially if it was designed for roaches the events of vault 22 were just a series of extremely unfortunate events (rodents are more closely related to us making the host change a whole lot easier). What is however problematic is Vault-tec's utter lack of safety procedures. No research lab in this world would be allowed to work with a potentially dangerous airborne disease like that in a setting where said disease could get into the air conditioning system. In short what I'm trying to say is that Vault 22 fell not to their "inhumane" experiments but a serious lack of understanding as to why safety procedures are a thing.
That's pretty much what I thought watching this video, of course I'm a biologist too so I was just shaking my head. Safety and containment procedures are a thing for good reason. During my student years we were making glow-in-the-dark ecoli on petri dishes and there were strict safety protocols we had to follow. The stuff wasn't even dangerous, its just no chances were taken that this glowing e.coli would escape into the wild. Working on a potentially dangerous airbourne disease would call for crazy amounts of safety and containment procedures. Silly Vault Tec. A little more safety and a lot less recklessness would have made this Vault successful.
Well it's Vault-Tec, so I wouldn't be surprised if they ignored the safety procedures just for that to happen. I mean, in the end, Vault-Tec never really cared about the well being of the people that live in their vaults.
Well maybe in this world, they weren't smart enough to think that far ahead. Something I have learned about Vault Tec is they never thought of the worst. They seem to rarely put up safety measures and only think their experiments will work and have no chance to fail.
Also, the whole point of this vault could have been to see what happens when a contagion is released in the air vents. How effective could it be? Just a couple thoughts
Teineeva Well, the problem is that the spores were genetically altered. Vault Tec sounds like people that play fast and loose with science. Experiment first, consider consequences later. They probably wanted to include rats among the "pests" that were targeted. If it can infect insects and rodents, going to humans isn't too outlandish, especially since Vault Tec either didn't have time to test just how many types of mammals this stuff worked on or they never even considered it. I mean, this is the same company that experimented with FEV. Anything with the words "*forced* evolution" in it is a bad idea. "CONTROLLED Evolution" would be a much better concept.

Ox you could literally read a phonebook and somehow have me interested.
I know. Oxhorn's voice is so relaxing that I feel so comfortable, even while I'm just listening to his stories.
Me too, sometimes at night I put one on when I'm getting ready to go to sleep.
(Edit -- one of these videos, I mean)
It's mellifluous.
I know ox could work in a hospital and make everyone relaxed just by talking about anything.
Y E S
For anyone curious (if anyone *is* curious), the Beauveria genus of fungus is a real thing -- while the specific species mentioned doesn't actually exist, the fungus does genuinely infect insects, killing them and turning them into walking colonies of fungal spores to infect others, thereby spreading the parasite; it's even used as a biological pesticide in some places, and is being researched as a possible countermeasure to kill bedbugs and mosquitoes. (Lovely thought, right?)
And for those well-read in video game parasites, who assume it's similar to the Cordyceps fungus of The Last Of Us fame -- you're partly right. Beauveria fungi are *like* Cordyceps, except they reproduce asexually, meaning they can spread like wildfire once they latch onto a food source... in other words, Naughty Dog picked the *nice* parasitic zombie brain-fungus for their post-apocalyptic road trip. (Again: lovely thought, right?)
@Elijah Isaacs I love how they left this mental horror of something akin to a *zombie fungus* actually existing and the only thing you took away from this was " but can you kill cavadors with this?"
There's also a parasite that infects insects, takes control of the host and maneuvers them into a position where they'll be spotted and eaten by birds who will then swallow the parasite eggs and spread them around.
@@babiiesketches5257 most likely, since it infects insects it could wipe those demon spawns out.
@@Elyseon Cordyceps. The so called “zombie fungus.” Scary shit when you think about it
Me i was interested
9:42- vault 22 is an obvious reference to the Carboniferous period (lasting roughly 359 to 299 million years ago) where there was an overabundance of oxygen, which allowed arthropods to grow to gigantic sizes. Hence why the mantises are so large- the plants created more oxygen.
The Carboniferous period is also known for its lush and vast (perhaps planet-wide) forests and swamps, from which we get much of the coal we burn for energy today.
Yeah, science!
Cynth underrated comment
Yeah man!
Oh, totally an obvious reference. Who WOULDN'T get that instantly? I mean, what kind of loser wouldn't see the connection?
@@Bluesit32 right? Imagine thinking it was a plant based homage to corticeps

It's just me or Fallout 4 isn't that dark as the previous games?
It's like comparing Diablo 1 to Diablo 3. D1 = Blood, tits, gore, can actually be thrilling. Then WoW style graphics for D3 :/ And slimy anti-customer practices including forced online. Hmm.. What other games series is about to go all online? Never to develop a worthwhile game again, just cash cow games. Not surprised at all though. 99% of today's gaming industry sucks. You have Fallout trying to be Fortnite and appealing to kids who just got their first job. Zero consumer experience, and brand shiny new credit cards.
Toki Wartooth how is fallout trying to be fortnite lmao
Toki Wartooth And what is this elusive 1%? What are the only games that deserve to be played while all game from 1979 to today are shit?
David T. They missed many things in Fallout 4. Gaining and loosing KARMA. Repairing things and many other bits of previous games were left out
LégendaireNic he said "99% of today's gaming industry sucks" not 99% of games suck.
This was my favorite vault because of the creepyness of the patches of vegetation and then you realize that they have the terrifying spore things and THEN you read the terminals and you're just like "Never mind, I'll be going now."
But later in the vault you find the flamer and then everything is a lot easier until you run outta flamer fuel. But I did have like a billion .45 rounds and an auto pistol so I just sprayed and prayed at all the plants
@@hikenjeager8874 I mean by this point you should have a bunch of flamer fuel (I had 1k) the bigger problem is how long will the flamer last before breaking

Creepiest part is that there are literally spores that "reanimate" the bodies of insects in real life.
And it was also the main virus with the last of us
Ah yes the Cordyceps, the fungus remotely responsible for the world and infected you fight on in both Last of Us 1 and 2.
Is there even a vault with a successful outcome?

10/10 timing was fantastic.
Good ol' days
Playing through this vault was incredibly creepy, and I became paranoid of every patch of grass containing a spore carrier ready to scare the shit out of me.
Man, Honest hearts must of been a nasty surprise then at one point. Seeing another lush area with its own creatures. And then, Spore Carriers.
With 70 science you can convince Keely that the data should be kept so we can learn from their mistakes, the best ending. There's also references not only in Honest Hearts as you said but also in Old World Blues
What is the honest hearts reference?
Oh, wait, I remember now.
not sure if you noticed but he does mention that but his character doesn't have 70 science so he has to pass up on it.
it's ok if you missed it we all make mistakes.
i njust lie to keely, still a paragon.
lgunport the game glitched since I got the data before receiving ANY quest, and she acts as if you don't have it
ahh vault 22, you never forget your first vault... or being a young much more stupid gamer and not working out how to escape it for over 4 hours...
oh, and by the way, when igniting the vault,your supposed to seal yourself in the server room that contains the data, it not far from the vents and will protect you. took me forever to figure that out as well
Neorider96 I just used c4 and long fuse dynamite
I don't think you even need to shut the server room door. I just shot the vent from a distance with a laser pistol the second time.
...Yeah I blew myself up the first time like everyone does.

I was stuck in this vault for so long omg
deleting the data is stupid. plant life that can survive on artificial light would be priceless, and even if there was any risk of someone recreating the zombie fungus, she could simply delete everything related to it, instead of going scorched earth on all of it for no goddamn reason.
I agree
VeryPeeved ya
Right, because it's that's simple.
Mutah it's not simple but there is something else to consider: the Followers of the Apocalypse both wants to improve the future and don't want humans to forget their past failures, deleting the information on the Vault terminal is just erasing a failure and has a better chance of that failure being repeated. Allowing the research day to be reproduced might risk it happening again but out of the hands of the Insidious vault-tec there's less of a chance of a catastrophic experiment. It's best to save the data and let people learn from mistakes instead of trying to forget mistakes happened and destroying a lot of potentially good research.
Actually, Keely backs up all of the successful experiment data the Vault 22 Scientists left behind before she begins erasing the original files.
Ox : "delete the data"
Famine : "thanks for the assist, bro"
Who thinks Chicago would be a fun fallout game, one of the strongest brotherhood locations and it would be funny to see people worshiping the bean
Nerd Guy I think Detroit or Chicago would be cool as hell.

Already been done with Fallout Tactics but I think if they're going to put it anywhere that would be a good place, there or New Orleans unless it's below the ocean or some shit
you forgot about the spore carrier "Patient 0" in the Old world blues dlc, and the spore carriers who were vault refugees in the Honest Hearts dlc
Soufiane Kamal yeah your right

I can't imagine a more disgusting way to die. More and more fungal and plant life growing inside you, making your chest feel heavier and heavier, like a chest cold. With the coughing (caused by the excess spores, no doubt), it's no wonder they thought it was pneumonia. Who would even think that they were being converted into walking spore factories?
@@nerdified2827 Well, one has you turning into another creature...but the other has a fungus using your lungs as a home. How long does the victim live? Before or after the fungus exits the lungs and spreads to other organs? To the blood? To the muscle? One could only hope they die before it gets that bad.
Poison Ivy (Batman) will love this place... This would have been her Lair.
More like her own garden of Eden
Man, I remembered my first playthrough, the moment I see the warning sign that said that the plants kill, I went to fiend territory to 'Borrow' a flamer from Cook Cook after 'taking care of him and his head', before going back to the vault to proceed.

feral ghouls are a lot more terrifying in Fallout 4 and playing on survival make enemies that surprise you more terrifying, but I'd agree and say that there's no particular location in Fallout 4 that can match the atmosphere of some of the locations in NV
Boone's 'Spotter' perk is awesome! I love the way enemies just light right up so I can peg them all at range! Thanks for revealing this location, Ox! I knew there would be more than just a few bugs down THIS hole in the earth!!!
Boone has kept me from picking up Veronica just yet. But, unless Veronica plans to install a reload station in addition to the workbench function then Boone is my man!!! I love making all the NCR Troopers at Ft McClarren jealous :) hearing them say, "I wish I had a Ranger watching MY back!"
Lmao the path you took to vault 22 was exactly mine. I saw the vault from the top after battling a bunch of cazadors and nearly dying when I went, "oooh what is that oasis". I didn't have any mission to go there yet
these New Vegas videos are great.
I adore the lore of NV, imo it has some of the deepest lore in the series.
I'd love to see one of those 'guide' videos on Ulysses. the ones where you go over their whole story.
kuroyama1 same here
Lucky-Ebola-Chan
It would have taken longer if they had to make an engine and create entirely new assets
They're not obsidian. I'm just really disappointed Obsidian isn't making a fallout 4.5.
kuroyama1 fallout 4
"Imo it has some of the deepest lore in the series." You've never played Fallout or Fallout 2, then, have you? :P Also, of course it has deeper lore than 3 and 4, it wasn't made by Bethesda. :P
Windbow Gt What ABOUT Fallout 4?!
There's a couple of other ways to avoid being killed by the explosion:
* The room with the data backup is secure, if you close the door, it is close enough to the vent that you can lob a grenade or dynamite around the corner.
* You can place a C4 device, then run back to the elevator, use the detonator, then immediately hit the elevator. You should have time to take off before the fireball reaches you.
ShneekeyTheLost would a timed mini nuke work
what makes me most curious about this vault is, how do we not get infected? i get that "create-a-characters" are turbo mary sues and a video game has to video game but are we really to believe that we are just that one random person who is completely immune to the spores? it doesn't feel quite right.
maybe you aren't exposed long enough? or they're mostly dormant by now?
Did you miss where Keely put some uv purple light on every floor to filter the spore with the plants ? Only temporary that's why we need to put flame and destroyed the spore for good
The first time I came across this vault, I was basically seeing how long I could play while I waited for the mushrooms to kick in. I had no idea what was going to happen in this vault and needless to say... it FREAKED ME THE HELL OUT MAN!!! I had to save and put the controller down and go collect myself after getting about half way through the vault. I went back later when I was sober and now I find that it triggers flashbacks every time I go in there. I laugh.
Hahahahahahahahsh hellllll yah dide
I remember I was walking in and heard my character make a sound when he gets hurt, he turns around and I saw a spore carrier pounce at me, almost shat myself
FYI, you can hide in the room where you download the files from.

holy shit thank you
Your Hatred of kazadors is understandable
we all hate those damned demons
each of these lore videos is like watching an awesome mystery movie, love this series.
and you have a really nice voice
You know, it really says something that this is probably one of Vault-Tec's most sensible, safe, well-run and benign experimental vaults...
On my first play through I actually had my character consume a bunch of rad away & drugs in fear of getting infected with the spore.
Steve L yep xD
and then i was like "that it" ?
until i get scare by the first spore carrier
Steve L Oh yes,I too was really paranoid about the spores, but in the end it made no difference. Well, maybe it takes long-term exposure to them or the concentration has lowered on account of the vault door being open.
Pascal i assume that those spore lose it power through time
cause why those mercs didnt turn into a spore carrier?
My Hentai Girl Well, maybe they did after getting killed by the infected inhabitants ... or they got scared and ran off
Would've been cool if you could get a perk from it or whatever, quest perks are always nice.
For those of you who died many times like me with the explosion you can shoot the laser rifle into the vent from the place with the data the NCR wants then close the door to survive.
Spore carriers are extremely easy to dispatch, they take a good few seconds before attacking you so you can legit just run into the plants swinging a melee weapon and kill them without taking a lick of damage.
Yo for real, why does Keely sound like Jr. from "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy"?
Of course Samwise Gamgee died in Vault 22 he was a gardener after all.
Haha is it really an actual reference?
That'd be hilarious.
I wouldn't put it past Bethesda or Obsidian. Looks like he should have went with Frodo and Gandalf to the elf homeland
Ha true. The one bad guy nobody in LotR expected: Vault Tec, now securing the future of middle earth, orc-free = carefree.
Vault Tec, we have been everywhere from DOOM 2016 to The Elder Scrolls dwemer ruins. Vault Tec does it all.
Your voice is one the most relaxing things I've ever heard. Record some ebooks, man.
Bethesda really missed a trick not putting a Poison Ivy reference somewhere in Vault 22
As long as its wild wasteland only.
The story of Randall Clark also ties into the Vault 22 survivors and what happened after they left the vault.If your doing a video on the Sarrows it would be a good tie together video if you did on on him.
nice video!, btw you forgot another part of the story that can be found on Old World Blues DLC, and the fact is, the scientists of Big MT created all those mutated plants and highly risky spores, then they gave it to vault tec, and vault tec selected vault 22 for the experiment.
you should take a look on every corner of Big Mountain, there's lots of fragmets telling the story behind the vault.
i hope you'll complete all this story on another video.
i went to this location earlier today for the first time, as i went further down the vault and through the corridors, the creaking ambience and the toxic green mist put a chill down my spine. the first time i saw a spore carrier (or whatever they're called) i thought it was just mist. i had finished exploring a room and found nothing, i left the room and ahead of me in the t-shaped hallway a creature scuttled past. i thought the mantises were the only enemies.
You’re one of few youtubers that put a lot of research and effort into their gameplay videos, great job
wait a minute how could jet be in the vault if it was invented in fallout 2...
X FILES MUSIC PLAYS
Prince Sheogorath maybe some of the hired mercs brought jet while trying to aquire the data
The kid lied about making it, he just found a large stash
Have you ever thought about doing creature profile/lore videos? You could role play that you are an exquisite hunter giving tips/info to new wasteland explorers.
Robust Titan David oxenborough
I'll always remember that when I was exploring that place, I was cleaning out the vault bedrooms, and one of them had a crib with a smaller spore carrier waiting inside it to jump me. The fact that the spores spread that far...
These lore videos are so interesting and intriguing to listen to, it’s like the modern version of a radio show.
You are a great narrator. The way you do these videos feels like you are a narrator telling the story of these places/quests. very good job.
You should definitely do an episode on Randall Clark in Zion and his adventure from the Great War to his death.

Angel Tirado I only like him because he was in the gobi campaign
Elder Maxson ah the gobi campaign...
Randall Clark was a real badass. Criminally underrated character.
"bovania morticana"?
that doesn't sound like something you would use on pests...
it sounds like something to be used on cows when they die...
Vault 22 was always the most unsettling vault to explore in my opinion
Then you shouldn't visit Vault 106 and 87.
That's what kinda put me off about Fallout 4, The Vaults are lame compared to new vegas. I can go delving into new vegas Vaults and find a massive underground structure that feels like it goes on forever while I can just run through vaults in Fallout 4 like nothing lol.
speaking of vaults, Oxhorn you should do Vault 11 next!!! that vault is pretty interesting I'm sure you'd like it.
the only vaults in fallout 4 that I liked was vault 81 and vault 88
Molokai Bean Well, there aren't as many vaults (or at least absolutely crazy ones) in 4, and they didn't just want to have a focus on the vaults and expanded the other areas, also I kinda don't like how expansive the vaults are, it just feels kinda pointless, since there are so many rooms that serve no purpose.
botty_burp What about Vault 111? Kinda plot-pivitol.
Dude, you gotta take us through that sunset sasparilla stars quest.
ben andrick he already has
Vladimir Putin there's a crazy thing called a "comment timestamp"....
That quest was so wwaaaack
Oxhorn already did. I think the video is called; the deadly secret of the sunset sasperilla company. I think.
What's the news.
You can actually convince Keely to not delete the data by bringing Arcade with you and youll say something like "my friend is in a group that knows what theyre doing" something like that
Works if you have Veronica with you also
29:17 "But really any energy based weapon can help here, including a laser!" *Instantly combusts into flames*
I hate this vault because i have a phobia of mushrooms.
mycophobia? Is that even a real thing?
AlienBrain Yws
AlienBrain Fungophobia
Its a real phobia and its a fucking pain.
same here. not only mushrooms but also jellyfishes
*Vault 21, Vault 21 live your life in the lamp of luxury.*
I Mr Cardinal I That's the slogan of the Ultra-Luxe. Vault 21 slogan is "Everything is better when you experience it in a vault"
Gomorrah... it'll be our secret.
I Mr Cardinal I This news program was brought to you by Primm. Primm. The *other* New Vegas.
Got anything else to say mr. VEGAS
smokey lake *WHOOPS* gotta wear my news fedora now.
I've never played any of these games ever but the way he tells the story of the vaults is like he's telling a story and that's what makes this better than just a game play video
The spores are kind of like Cordeceps, which does the same thing to bugs. Actually, a mutated strand of Cordeceps is the main driving force of zombieism in The Last of Us.
This was my first Vault in NV, needless to say... I shit myself... many times. ;~;
Shady Sam Spore carriers are horrid creatures. You can walk right by them without noticing them until they start gnawing on your neck. Doesn't help that they can quickly wreck your shit.
There is a handy flame thrower in one of the rooms with some fuel so you can just torch every suspicious looking bush in that hell hole.
Huh cooked spores? What an interesting sort of deliciously thanks I know what to do if I see a mutated genetic spore in real life :)
TheBlues32 nah see I don't fuck with that shit, if it looks close to shifty, it gets a warm hello at the hands of the fat man. All while screaming USA and listening to "let's ride into the sunset together"
Oxhorn,
A video on the Masters Army and/or a character profile on Marcus from Jacobstown is needed.
Thanks anyway for the great videos and for branching out into New Vegas.
This vault freaked me out so much. I had no idea what to expect and I was really young
Do a Video on “How Vault-Tech became so Powerful”
Explaining why and how Vault-Tech was able to do these Inhumane Experiments on the Populous both In and Outside of the Vaults. Why the Government or the Law Didn't or Couldn't Intervene and stop them. I'm pretty sure that some Investigations or P.I. aka Private Investigators couldn't hit the Nail on Vault-Tech's Cruel Experiments.
Its already explained throughout fallout games, but in case you didnt know, vault tec is a fake bunker. Most of them were used for experiments. How does no one see this? It was run by government, and no one know about it except Enclave and vault tec themselves. Enclave being the official US government. The experiment will only be conducted when the bomb fell, thats when people will flock inside the vault. When they reveal their true nature, there is no one at all that are alive except those who are inside the vault and Enclave which monitors the experiment. Why having an experiment? The plan is, after the bomb fell and wiped most of humanity. They will re colonize earth / leaving the earth for a better planet. Now, they need to make sure that the ship towards new planet will be filled with a stable society. The data from the vault will be useful, since both, spaceship and vault are in an enclosed space and no way to escape. So with all that experiment, they will get data and could respond accordingly to any other problem they might encounter in space later, when they are on the way to new planet. Since its gonna be a long journey, they are trying to make sure the society will be stable. The data from vault shows all kind of problem that they possibly encounter in space travel. Not all vault used for experiment though, some vault are harmless and were meant to repopulate earth if there is no problem resulting from nuclear radiation.
srry for my first sentence, vault tec is a company. What i meant is vault is a bunker, but the main purpose is not that, but to conduct experiments
This vault is one of my all time favorites, the whole theme and story behind it is so cool and the vault is so creepy too.
I'm afraid I can't let you do that lol I love the speech options
Vault 22, for some reason, makes my goddamn skin crawl and I HATE how scared it makes me. The grass people just fucking mess with me and I usually spend the whole time crying and burning the whole fucking place down with a flamer and molotovs.
1917: Oh, there is going to be flying cars in the future! 2017: *makes a game with plant zombies*
New Vegas came out in 2010.
Not 2017.
I can't believe you post these videos every day, that has to be difficult, you earned my sub.
Hexproof 730 How about your patronage on Patreon ?:)???
eh, I'm not made of money, I'm not going to pledge money I don't have.
Israel Manjarrez not every one can afford to donate a simple watch or sub is more than fine
in a year or two he will be giving detailed historics about surgical trays and abraxo cleaner and stuff :D
"Did vault-tec not think it could infect people"
Vault-Tec: Why yes, yes we did.
13:10 It was at this moment that he knew...
*He Fucked Up*
You should do Fallout 3 Lore at Oasis. That place is very... unique.
I got stuck in this vault for like thirty minutes
clyde Roberts jr well compared to my visit, you had an speedrun.
clyde Roberts jr how is 30min long for a vault, wtf
Takes me 1 hour to clear and purify vaults, 15 for killing , 30 for exploring, 15 for looting everything till its empty.
The incompetent of Vault-Tec scientists always amazed me
Incompetence is often used as a cover for a lack of ethics. It's likely they were purposely experimenting on humans and fully expected them to die, mutate, go crazy.
Anything the government and their corporate buddies want to get away with can be justified by simple saying either "oops, we're incompetent," and/or "it's for your safety."
Thank you so much for doing a video on Vault 22. When I went through it, I was too terrified of the damn spore things to pay any attention to the logs, etc.
Will you do a lore vidéo of the Sierra Madre ? would be damn awesome
He could probably do *a* lorevid on the Sierra Madre... but it'd have to be about 3 hours long.
Nicholas Cross Lore Movie
Timm Tam, Definitely, But it did help me level up quite a bit. By the time I left my science and sneak skills were almost maxed out and I got the friend of the night perk which I hadn't really considered getting up until that point.
I'd cream my jeans if he did a sierra madre vid
I suppose it would be possible as a multi-parter/mini-series. He'd have to do a lot of work on it though so you wouldn't see it any time soon, most likely.
They remind me of trogs, fallout 3 anyone?
ToGs? Haha lol sorry just thought of tanks creeping around the wastelands lol
Obsidian likes to reuse models from fallout 3. The spore carriers use the trog model. Like how they reuse the alien model with wildwasteland.
edward chaffey eh i can see why
Tunnelers are actually a unique enemy separate from Trogs and Spore Carriers, but they use the same animations as those two enemies, only sped up
This is cool. I explored this vault in my first play through because I'd seen your thumbnail and thought the first few seconds were cool. I was scared out of my mind. I'm glad I'll get to know all the leafy green secrets!
This video is a bit old, but I needed to put in my 2 cents. I think you shouldn't delete the data. I know that people died, but this data could provide food for millions. To delete this data is to doom the wasteland to crops that wield little due to poor conditions. Hunger could be solved. Yes, the spores are terrible, but the vault is a testament to its evil, so I doubt they'll use it. Deleting all of that progress is to scoff in the face of a better wasteland and deny millions food.
Yeah, don't feel too sorry for the poor survivors of Vault 22 who lost their home and technological comforts that came with it. Most of them turned out to be bigger monsters than the ones they were fleeing from.
Man,i love these videos they fill like podcast episodes,well done Oxhorn
Thank you Oxhorn for showing how you ignited the gas in this vault.
With your help I was able to complete the quest!
I knew like 90% about this Vault already before, but thanks for Refreshing. Keep up the Great work I love your vids!
Now do Vault 11, it has a very tragic story and outcome, I'm sure you'd love doing a video on it! Keep up the good work :)
