Have a great day, and as always, thanks for watching! - Hry
Hey everyone, if you want to see more videos like this, giving it a like and commenting can help out a great deal.
Have a great weekend and as always, thanks for watching!
I would love more Fallout videos!!!
Todd Howard mentioned in an ign interview that the NCR is a large faction that holds many areas around California. So I think not all of the NCR is gone, just in the region around Shady Sands. And we'll see them more in season 2.
Also the billboard at shady sands says "the first capital of the ncr" this means the capital has moved through the years
Yea I never got why soany fans are getting mad acting like the NCR is completely eradicated
They're the largest nation in the post apocalypse
Obviously a city of tens of thousands isn't the entirety of the NCR
Todd H didn't write fallout.. NCR was around before he got ahold of it
@@truthspeaks6557 Do you not follow the lore at all? They’ve indicated its a huge faction multiple times lol..its also mentioned in fallout 1 and 2? They have a population of about 2 million people and 7,000 soldiers spaced all over California. The NCR was never gone or weakened so idk where this is coming from in the show makes no sense sounds like they’re making up there own stories. If anything the population should be booming with 2 million ppl considering the show takes place after all the games and no catastrophic events happened it just doesnt make sense
Imagine caring or trusting Toddslop.
Just a small point to note, in the intro you mentioned that Doc Mitchell rescued the Courier. But it's Victor who rescued the Courier and took them to Doc Mitchell.
Wanted to mention that because it was Mr House through Victor who led the Courier on this path.
Loved the video though! Keep up the good work.
Saved me having to say it lol
@@geotothestan1734😅most welcome.
Idk why everyone thinks shady sands was the end all be all for the NCR. The show never said the NCR was finished and Mauldaver wasn’t the leader of the NCR and it seemed more like she and her group of people were just a small survival faction.
Yeah I don't think Shady Sands was the end of the NCR. I think it could have been just a small part of their downfall (if that is in fact the case). It could also be just a more localized problem like you're saying. It remains to be seen!
For those who played fallout 1 and 2, shady sands was principally associated with the NCR and the first town most players had the vault dweller save, and then you saw Tandi again in fallout 2. It’s very clearly not the sole city in the NCR but for casual peeps bombing it personifies “oh the NCR fell on hard timesl
In the show it did show it was the HQ of NCR so I believe it was basically the HQ base that got destroyed but probably there's some small factions around the HQ
If I'm remembering the story in New Vegas correctly, NCR was on its way to a collapse due to a classic Malthusian trap. Could be that after Shady Sands was destroyed (where the main government was presumably located), the power vacuum led to NCR fracturing with Brahmin Barons and families like Van Graff, Bishop, etc. turning into regional warlords
I also thought it NV most likely ends with the House ending because of his casting. I can't see them using the actor only once. Maybe House is dead and the actor will only be seen in more flashbacks, but I think they'll go with the House ending to build up the House mystique that may not be apparent to viewers who haven't played the games.
Notice how no lights are on at the end of the show but every view of new vegas in the game is lit up? I think the cannon ending is where house was defeated and the strip blows up.
The strip blows up in one of the endings? I know if the NCR wins they just take control of the strip. Is it the Legion that blows up the strip or if you help the Omertàs with their plot?
Show is nonsense
It was daylight. The lights aren't on during the day. ALSO in the credits we see a crashed NCR vertibird which supports the idea that the NCR did come back for the Strip like General Oliver threatened.
@@ItsShatter doesn't Ulysses give you the option at the end of he's DLC
I think the real ending is actually in the lonesome road dlc, I forgot which place you have to nuke to get it.
We’ll all realize that new Vegas’ courier was actually the antagonist when season 2 comes out mark my words.
That would be nutsssss
So Fallout Dust?
@@froggyspond1133 I have this like incredibly long theory that you’re actually a bad guy in new Vegas and my theory really hangs on how Ulysses and Benny interact with you in the game and my fan boy heart just wants it to be true so bad haha. Seeing new Vegas in shambles at the end on season 1 gave me the false hope I don’t need 😂
@@TheMikeyP_ i mean honestly? That would be absolutely fascinating. Maybe you went with an independent new Vegas but the courier was eventually corrupted as is tradition in the wasteland, or better yet, he did go the independent route, but either yes man turned on the courier once being put in power and/or you’re absolutely right and the courier is just a mass murdering war criminal, who was able to fool everyone and then ruin new Vegas for his own means.
I like the idea bro.
The Courier you mean 😊
It is explained. The ncr and the brotherhood had been fighting in a war for years prior to the fallout series.
I love the set up in-game footage to recreate the lore of the game. It's a great touch!
The knowledge of New Vegas lore feels like spoilers to season 2 😅
Perhaps it removes a little sense of mystery. However, I think what is lost will be made up for by a deeper understanding in the significance of what shows up on screen. Plus, I have a feeling the show writers will throw a few curve balls at us by the time all is said and done.
@ItsShatter True, see I went into the show with basically only a gameplay knowledge of Fallout 3. So I was thrown for a loop on everything about the vaults secert motives.
Not really, the game only ends one of four ways, and if the show takes place 15 years after the games timeline it gives the writers just enough wiggle room to work with. But one of the factions have to be in power, I think they are going to with the NRC being in power, because it would give them a good foothold, money and resources to regroup in the future and it would expand how they still have a influence.
Victor actually rescued the courier from a shallow grave. Currently playing new Vegas.
I’ve played a lot of New Vegas, and even I didn’t know some of this. Great job!
I know right? This clarified the whole picture for me.
Out of all the characters I think the ones that make the most sense are Arcade and Veronica both need to be in like a Followers of the apocalypse refugee camp that was established after the strip was attacked if that is the direction they are going in the show
If they didn't show up in season 1 despite their HQ and university being in Boneyard, they should at least be in Freeside. The Followers I mean.
This video makes me keenly and painfully aware of how much I sped thru my first and only playthrough of NV.
At the end of the day tho, I'd still make the same choice: Mr. House Simp thru and true. And I'm all in for a heavily NV focused S2 of the show.
Same… I loved the gameplay and didn’t care about the story. Looks like I’m going to enjoy my replay
I just need more Kyle McLaughlin in power armor
I think it'd be an interesting possibility for Graham to somewhat "rehabilitate" Cooper.
Not to pacify him, of course. Not even to show him the difference between purposeful and purposeless violence. Most of what Cooper does has a reason already.
But just to give him that little hint that could steer him towards a new purpose. Make him think a little differently for a bit anyway. I think it'd be a good temporary bright point in his life. Kinda like Negan from TWD... right before that show lost my interest the last time 😂 (Edit, would also be cool if he could be dubbed or portrayed by the original VA)
Or maybe Graham just reminds him of something from Cooper's prewar years that sorta makes everything click for him, yknow? Gives new perspective, lets him come to terms with himself in a new way, whatever.
Long as it ain't no Kumbayah stuff. For that is not the way of the malpase legate.
I have seen a lot people wanting Joshua to appear. I just hope the show handles him well. He'd be like 70 by then.
Maximus is gonna lose it when he hears an entire chapter was wiped out by a mailman
Great content keep up the good work!
My guess ,NCR lost the battle for the hoover and Ceasar charged on to new Vegas and the city was lost (obviously) Mr House may be still alive and season 2 will orbit between him and the Caesar Legion
there was a super mutant in the show!!! watch when dr wilzig leaves the enclave you can see one on a stretcher w his hand sticking out, just a neat lil detail you mighta missed
It would be cool that instead of encountering mr house they have to deal with the courier and yes man.
Watching this since I’m playin New Vegas rn. Amazing game
The courier had control of the securitrons using yes man he did not need Mr house to control them
That's true, but at the end of the game, the courier leaves the Mohave at the end.
I hope we get to see Marcus and the mutants at jacobstown and maybe it’s just Mr. house left. Alone. Insane. Left there in his tube to rot alone for eternity as a computer
Lets hope they understand that WC mutants are more intelligent and have other assets. Unlike the EC mutants.
@@corypowercat7277 yeah idk it seems to be pretty good so we’ll see. I really hope Mr house is still there all his securitrons destroyed by ncr / they destroyed each other and house is just there in his tube. Alone. Not able to control anything just crazy as fuck
With the story of synth’s in fallout 4, and Mr House is just basically a computer, would love to see that man get a synth body. At least he defended where he lived during the war
Hey man I LOVE your videos they helped me out so much man, and I hope you do a guide for bloodborne🙏
Small nitpick, it was Victor who rescued the courier and brought them to Doc Mitchell.
I want the Enclave in season 2!!
I thought he was rescued by victor and saved by doc mitchell.
hope you see this and might be behind in the tv theory but watching this i think we killed house in the show and then we launched the nukes in lonesome road that took out shady sands ulysses wanted to strike at the heart of the NCR and the legion
I hope we get a flashback to the second battle of the Hoover dam
Looks like you're done with Dogma, so Cyberpunk 2077, please. only if you want
On one hand it makes sense for New Vegas to fall. On the other hand I can't forget the reason the showrunners reset the West Coast in an interview. I like the (possible) in lore reason but hate the real life reason it fell apart.
My only fear for season 2 of the tv show is that they continue this sort of destructive path of the factions of previous non Bethesda games. We already saw in season 1 the area around Hollywood was lacking the NCR presence due to the destruction of Shady Sands. Fallout 1 took place in that area and they kinda wiped the factions clean or more so in that area. In season 2, we see New Vegas, an area from Fallout New Vegas, looks deserted. If there was a war as described in this video then again, a previous area from the games is wiped clean for the show to introduce new lore. I am not against new lore, factions and stories as long as it’s not at the expense of previous established lore, factions and stories.
I’m honestly shocked at how well received the fallout tv show has been. Tones of plot holes and characters just running into each other randomly 😂
To each their own I guess
Hank is the courier
No. Why would he not be in vault 33 at this time or vault 31?
We need a Harold subplot in the show. Maybe even one with a certain ex-BoS soon to be ex-human whom we're already met...
You mean tree bro?
My main NV save file is in the year 2882😅
Yeah I had to go to the start of the game to get that initial date for the video lol
Still.. 2882 is absolutely insane if that’s true!
I did a 100% run, including all DLCs, all companion quests, all skill books, all map locations, and ignored the main story until well after level 50 - ended around December of 2282
@@CliffSedge-nu5fv I have many other save games but yeah my main has been played on for a very long time to the point that there’s literally nothing left to do. I just add mods to it at this point

😮Todd Howard is a fool, and Emil Pagliarulo is the Devil himself. New Vegas was Designed by Obsidian, with a core group of old OG Fallout Designers.

The new datamined bunker/shelter looks like jacobs town but then empty🤭🙈go look it up and comment if u agree
We dont have a down fall we have a set back in the show why they so weak is bc of shady sands where most troopers and the rest is in their own locations and citys we NCR aint dead
Oh boy, its going to be annoying trying to explain the lore to all these new people who've only known the show
NCR AND PROUD 💙 WE AINT DEAD OUR CAPITAL GOT BLOWN UP So no worries NCR volks and troops we have more location we wont go out without a bang💙
Hail Caesar.
So as far as the boomers go I think that if there was a big battle at new Vegas they likely would have been dragged into it and either wiped out of scattered. That’s my thoughts anyways.
Didn’t really like Fallout compared to Elder Scrolls as a kid. Seemed lame. Only because I was a kid and all the political stuff went over my head.
Watching the show now with a family of my own and loving it on top of the series being almost a a 1 to 1 depiction of how things are going NOW in the world 🌍 I’ve started playing the games again and LOVE THEM!
The lore and the world is so RIPE! Makes you daydream
Why do you talk so slow
I don't understand the pedestal of New Vegas. It has the dumbest major faction in all of Fallout. The Legion is just moronic writing.
Such a good game... But the hit-boxes are worse than FO3, the gunplay is inept, and the entire idea of the Legion is just lazy writing. It breaks all immersion. A guy made an army of slaves. Ummm.. okay.
Heck, any one of the ridiculous Nuka World raider factions has more foundational lore, and shows exponentially more effort in logic.
The Legion killed New Vegas for me. It's just so dumb.
*edit. Not the game itself.. Just the Legion.... which kind of ruins the plot and stakes.
Tells nothing. Show is nonsense
