    This is probably Bethesda's best entry in the Societal Preservation Program thus far. So well crafted and told. Also has got to be the best concept of a battle royale mode thus far; making the players battle to the death to become the Overseer of a vault with no residents. EDIT: also, given that Robert Baker was in the military, it would make sense that his family were either in Vault 79 or 63. 79 cause ZAX mentions the vault is "redacted" and 63 because he mentions that they are dead later on. The small little bit we have seen of Vault 63 thus far makes it seem the vault almost capsized somehow. Perhaps from the Motherlode?

    Imagine if this was a quest in Fallout 4, or 5. It'd be the best quest ever. Find an overseer body on the floor, leading you to Vault 51, where you become part of the experiment, after you win overseer the first time, it starts again and you work to find a way out of the cycle and fight against Zax's control of the vault till you finally defeat him. It'd be a questline on par with Tranquility lane. Instead you get a game mode with no conclusion in a game with no npc characters to immerse you with no decision making. "It just works!"

    Legit there’s something interesting about having an AI direct the course of how it would it choose an Overseer. A machine could never humanly understand a leadership that is undeniably a human quality.
    I feel like this kind of Vault feels like a horror movie of an AI slowly turning everyone against each other until the last man standing is The Overseer. Also it’s a cool way of explaining the game mode

      @JeroenDoes Před 4 lety +7

      I find it confusing more than anything else. Zax was told to choose a candidate, the test of the vualt was to observe tribalism.
      The way Zac went about things did not get a candidate and there was no tribalism because it became a free for all.
      It would have been more logical if Zac made the crisis about groups instead of idividuals. Group mentality makes tribalism so if he was setting up groups against eachother then he would be able to see that.

    How different things might be if Sergeant Baker gave a different (but probably equally valid answer for his war experience). Something like: "A real leader is someone who sacrifices himself for the good of others". Which I could see a war veteran like him saying, as his deeds of valor that got him the rank probably were as much about: "I want to save my squad" than anything else.

Or just plainly dying slowly and sadly, despite your efforts to mend things right. I really end up feeling pity for the souls of Appalachia.
