That was actually lore accurate. Turrets are the stormtroopers of Fallout. They can't hit the broadsides of barns, without an upgrade.
That's why it has the, "please remain calm " sign! The only way it can hit anything is if it is standing still!!😂
It's a funny reference but I do think it's the one time in the show where directly referencing something from the games doesn't work for people without that knowledge. I think that gag only works if how abysmal they are at hitting anything is set up before hand, otherwise it just looks like a badly staged scene with a guy that has plot armor.
@@troikas3353 Or 10 Luck!!
They could have played it off by emphasizing a slow rotation speed or something. Really not a big deal, though
^^ This. I love how they showed it too
"Size matters when you're fucking chickens" is the funniest thing I've heard all year
needs to be on a shirt.
@@williamedmonds-gx7sqor a senior quote lol
Hahahaha!
14:20 for those with an inquisitive mind
Well, think about it. A hen's cloaca can stretch wide enough to pass an egg, so that'll give us a baseline for what kind of girth it can handle. It's pretty substantial for an animal of that size.
“She steals dads!” might be the best line of dialogue in the entire series.
To be fair thats some marvel level quirkiness...
@mrcroob8563 nope. That's fo level quirkiness which is 1000x better than shitty marvel.
@@volourn9764 Nah that literally could have been said in an avengers movie.
@@mrcroob8563 ok?
I liked “my aunt got killed there once”..
The pure shock as the puppy is put in the incinerator will never not be hilarious to me. Also, the turret being super inaccurate is actually accurate to the games, at least 4.
Yup. The turrets' job is to make you shout "oh f-" and get back behind cover for a second, not kill you, lol
Well the Enclave are downright evil after all.
Turrets in Fallout 3/New Vegas hit you fairly accurately, but they usually burst fire, and unless you just stand there saying "oh!", "ah!", "ooh!" "aaah!" you can just casually stroll behind cover and take your stims.
True that!
Fo1 and fo2 turrets are rather accurate, too. The REAL FOs.
Lucy’s naïveté mixed with her polite badassery is literal gold. Ella absolutely KILLS this role. And Walton Goggins was born to be a ghoul.
THE ghoul
Walton was brilliant in Justified and Sons of Anarchy, and now in this. Completely different characters but he kills it every time.
She is awesome!
Lucy is awesome. Not a fan of the Ghoul, though. Wiggins is good. Great in the pre war scenes, but the ghoul is just whatever.
"I'd offer you one of these cherry tomatoes, but you got a hole in your neck" is just one of my favorite line deliveries ever. Walton Goggins is just a national treasure.
You can tell he’s having fun even with all that crap on his face lol
Fun fact in case no one else has mentioned it, in Die Hard, John McClain's daughter's name is in fact Lucy. I don't know if that's an intentional reference, but it works any way lol.
"Size matters when you're fucking a chicken"
worst/best fortune cookie message EVER.
Honestly, this show just keeps getting better. So glad to already hear it got renewed for a season 2.
The wait will be worth it!
Fun fact Filly is called that because it was built on an old landfill. Also in this alternate history microprocessor were never invented. Instead the US took a more nuclear powered approach, to the point even the cars were nuclear powered. The 1950s nuclear aesthetic, carried on until the year 2077 when the bombs dropped, this show takes place in the year 2296.
And without seeing the rest of the serie it was clear to me it isn't a chip he injected.
Actually transistors WERE invented in the Fallout timeline, just not till about 2050 or so :)
wrong One of the major divergences from our own history is that, in the Fallout world, the rapid miniaturization of digital computers and electronics never occurred. The transistor, invented in our world in 1947, was not developed in the Fallout universe until the decade just before the Great War (2067)
tldr: Instead of the invention being in 1947, it was in 2067, however, other aspects of computer science developed just fine. Plus there are a lot of exceptional geniuses in the Fallout universe, capable of achieving tech way above the norm, such as Mr. House.
@@trans_emo_kitty_69 Sorry but that's wrong :) in Fallout 4, Jack Cabot has a terminal entry talking about transistors from 2023AD, and robots etc absolutely require miniaturized electronics...and ZAX the super computer was built in 2053
Also...transistor radios etc existed long before the war ;)
But the war shortages and the mentality of the leadership could certainly alter how they were developed, spread etc, transistors were certainly developed LONG after they were in our time line (1947) that's for sure.
As a note however, vacuum tubes are more resistant to EMP effects so were used for a long time in real life for certain military applications, and can be improved more than people think but still not enough to make a "microchip" like item
Land FILL Y-ard? That's where the name comes from?
Fun fact about the 'Dentist Barber' thing. thats actually true. And its the origin of the 'barber pole'. The red white and blue spinning thing outside. White meant you cut hair, Blue meant dentistry, and red meant doctor. You didnt have to be able to read to know what services were offered
No, red meant surgeon.
@@f0rth3l0v30fchr15t A Physician or Surgeon (M.D.) is an individual issued a license allowing them to practice medicine. A physician may diagnose, prescribe, and administer treatment to individuals suffering from injury or disease. So in other words a Doctor.
@@ThtJustinGuyAt the time there was still a very stark difference between doctors and surgeons. Doctors were by and large academics who didn't get their hands dirty, and all the actual physical work was done by people with little formal education. If it was a combination barbershop/dentist sort of practice, you'd definitely be dealing with a surgeon, not a doctor
Google Barber surgeon.
I always heard it was white for bandages, red for arterial blood, and blue for blood from your veins...
I can't imagine a faster way of establishing "this is a faction of bad guys" than showing a puppy incinerator.
PS: When the Brotherhood was announcing the target this episode, they said he came from the Enclave, which is another faction.
I love Fallout but hate how they made the Enclave the bad guys, America was controlled by Vault Tech and 5 other corporations , as well as most of the world.
Their actions were driven by corporations and " special interests " Similar too today.
Good ol' Jojos moment.
That turret was a true turret from fallout. I have 10 of them lined up and a raider still runs right past them and attacks me with bullets hitting everything but him.
Wow!
This is an incredibly accurate depiction of the turrets' incredible inaccuracy.
“Dogs make you a good person”-Nerdy
*Ramsey Bolton has entered the chat*
He was a good person, he feed his Dogs well.
Well the dogs did solve the problem of Rmasay Bolton did they not?
That ship is real. It ran aground in 1909, on the Skeleton Coast of Namibia.
Since then, the desert has encroached on the sea, leaving the wreck 1,000 ft from the shore.
The helicopters are absolutely based on a real aircraft. The V-22 Osprey was first designed in the late 80's and entered service with the US military in 2007. Early versions had a lot of issues that had to be worked out over the years so it took quite a while from development to deployment. I think we've also sold some of them to several allied nations in recent years. It's primarily used as a transport.
Fun fact: Heads of state don't get into it because they crash too often.
@@xxklesx1 Crazy. I knew they had some issues with crashes, but I had no idea it was so bad they wouldn't let VIP's ride in them.
@@davebcf1231helicopters generally are less safe than other aircraft.
V-22’s issues are probably a bit overblown, but it’s like riding in a car while training your kid to drive.
It’s not /that/ unsafe, but…
I would rather hike naked up Mt Everest than ever get in another Osprey. Fun fact, while the rotors are tilting, you are basically in free fall.
More importantly, the US army has adopted the Osprey's big brother the V-280 Valor as the replacement for the UH-60 Blackhawk, so the Army will be buying thousands of tilt rotors over the next 30 years.
They put a please remain calm sign on it because it was cheaper than a targeting system that could hurt moving targets (my headcanon)
Well it’s a Mark 1 which is known for being inaccurate, the Enclave are cheap 😂
It would work on me as I stand there confused.
@@Gideonite Well, to be fair, it's most probably an Enclave remnant. Cut them some slack!
Plus the scientist could have had the Moving Target Perk!
13:25 That wasn't a normal bear, it was a mutant bear. Dangerous to even those with armor.
They’re called Yao Gui’s
@@thedeepfriar745 which is Fallout for "Yogi," a reference to Yogi Bear, a famous cartoon bear.
@@TrismegistusMx It is a yogi joke, but also Yao Gui doesn't have a direct translation but roughly means "hungry spirit" in Chinese. The lore is they were named by Chinese POWs.
the vertibird helicopter is basically just a chunky looking "Traverse-mounted Tiltrotor". and yes those things are real. check the most famous and wellknow one called OSPREY.
God I love the Osprey
I got to see an Osprey about 6 years ago. I happened to work in a factory next to a very small airport, and the pilot was practicing touch and go landings at the strip. It was so loud we could hear the ceiling rattle, then went outside to see what was making the noise.
@@anon_234Got to see one too in LPIA during the recovery days after Hurricane Dorian.
VTOL aircraft!
Look at the Bell 280 Valor, the Osprey replacement, even more on point! :D
It’s wasn’t the 1950’s when the bombs drop alternative history it was 2077 and Lucy left vault 33 in 2296
This world kept the style of the 50s long after ours would have.
There's a breakdown of the easter eggs in episode 1 I watched, when lucy signed the wedding dress the last date was 2294. there exchanges happen every 3 years, so that makes it 2297 lucy left the vault.
Yup!
I wonder how many people caught just how good the Ghoul is.
When Maximus is fighting the ghoul using the armor, he fires his pistol at the Ghoul twice, and right before the third shot, one of the ghoul's bullets hits the tip of Maximus' gun, turns it to Maximus' left, and then Max fires- blowing up something flammable over there instead.
Everyone knows how 'good' the ghoul is. He's very over the top perfect. Rather boring.
Which proves that he’s just “playing with his food”, so to speak. He knows a rook when he sees one and decided it was playtime
The show has a lot of "In Game physics".
The way the weapons make limbs (and entire people) explode, the turrets missing more often than not, how Stimpaks heal pretty much instantly and other things! Even the random NPCs you find in the world behave very much like the two "Random encounters" that Lucy and Maximus had in this episode. Lucy met an NPC that was basically just doing idle animations (hitting his waterfilter) and by giving him water he told her the directions along with some wacky flavortext about how people dies in Filly, not to mention the classic of an NPC never having been to a massive town just over the hill.
Maximus has a Random Encounter where he had to choose if he should stop the fight and whom of them that he should help but based on next to no prior information. As Nerdy predicted, he let the guy go but it turned out to be a Chickenlover! Then it is up to the player to decide if it was a good idea to make the choice you did!
Also, Fully is not Philly. Filly here is the Landfill(y).
The Ghoul has the "Bloody Mess" quirk / trait.
Also, a bear being able to hurt somebody in full body armor and shrugging off hits from powered limbs able to huck a cinderblock hundreds of meters out to sea but then dying of gunfire that couldn't possibly compare to the power of those punches. Or the ghoul shrugging off bullets (maybe he's wearing armor but if so it's low-profile and I have my doubts it'd actually stop a rifle) but everybody he hits dies except of course the ones with a name, there's plenty of it to go around.
19:40 every Fallout player's reaction when some f'ing raider hurts Dogmeat.
The Ghoul is obviously using VATS and has both the Bloody Mess and Better Criticals perks
It's a real aircraft design. It's called the Osprey. My uncle was actually on the team that designed the engines. The marine corps was using them when I was in, I'd assume they still do.
Verti-Bird is base on the US Marine Corps Osprey.
19:53 it's a gun that fires random junk. You saw it in episode 1 kill someone with a dolls arm, and later during the ghouls introduction.
Fallout Writers' Room:
"Okay, we have to communicate to viewers that the Enclave is fucking evil, but we don't want to spend much time on it. Thoughts?"
And we get the nod for the fallout vets with the hand slipping out from the white sheet.
Well how evil are they? They’d murder puppies.
@@mackyronni newborn puppies for not meet a certain weight minimum
Also people keep talking (and I agree) three main characters represent three common ways to play the game: the Good one, the Neutral one, and the Bad(ass:) one. Seems pretty smart decision, actually. Also I find it funny, that while we all have trust issues with Maximus, the Ghoul, who is quite cruel is just as likeable as Lucy. It's obvious why, of course, but still interesting. Very good writing, Jonatan Nolan never fails to impress.
It's also a classic screenplay move to have each main character represent one of the possible POVs. In this case, you have (1) the Ghoul, who was alive in the world before the nukes and so has that firsthand knowledge of what the world used to be as well as how it changed; (2) Maximus, who grew up on the surface well after the wars and only knows the violence, fear, and cruelty of the post-war world; and (3) Lucy, who was raised in the safety, politeness, and propaganda of a vault and, until she left, had no experience or true understanding of the surface world beyond the naïve picture of it she learned about underground. In this way, you can have three different characters interact with the world and this story in ways that are different and specific to each individual's past, allowing the screenwriters to explore the main themes from multiple angles. It's really smartly written. Even more so because, unless you're into writing and taking apart the mechanics of a story, it's not calling a lot of attention to itself and just feels very natural.
The Marines have used the V-22 Osprey for like 20 years now, and the Army's new helicopter is the V-280 Valor. Both of those are tilt-rotor designs like Fallout's Vertibirds.
His face when "aww he's a puppy" immediately followed by said puppy being incinerated was priceless
Lucy holding her gun up as she approaches the guy is, according to Todd Howard and Johnathan Nolan, is a nod to the players. We never, ever holster our weapons when we approach an NPC so we are basically like Lucy, walking up to some poor random guy all friendly with a gun pointed at him.
"This is an act of bravery"
"Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck"
"All ten fingers".
Damn....
A lot of ppl forget knights are kinda dumb, like all of them. PALADINS are the actual badasses
The show helicopter is a real design, though the proportions of it look a bit undersized to work.
With these two hands, I built that bridge over yonder brick by brick.
Do they call me John the Bridge Mason? No
With the strength of my arms, I cut down the trees that make the beams of our church.
Do they call me John the Wood Smith? No.
But I fuck one chicken…
Is this a German joke? I've heard it in German... But it was a pig instead of a chicken
Gotta remember that the bombs fell in 2077. There is a 50s aesthetic but its 118 years past then when the bombs drop. So technology like the space shuttle would exist
Indeed!
one detail. The Ghoul is still wearing the cowboy shirt he was wearing at the kid's party in the first episode
Welcome to the world of Fallout, the wacky humor, the gory reality, the moral dilemmas etc etc, This show does a brilliant job of showing what the in game world is like and whet you have to do to survive in it.
Here's a little historical Fallout lore that may help:
The Fallout world is based in an alternate reality which diverged from ours around the 1950s because they didn't invent the transistor until the 2060s , they went through a nuclear age instead of an electronic age (hence the 60s look). Without computers and electronics to help control their use of resources they rapidly ran out in the 2020s and the world powers started fighting over what was left. The nuclear war at the start of the show occurred on October 23 2077, add 219 years and the show is occurring in 2296. All the currently released Fallout games occur before this time.
The brotherhood is a quasi religious military order dedicated to acquiring and hoarding technology from before the war. They change a lot during the games, and each chapter is different from each other, but they tend to care little about wastelanders and more about themselves.
Fun fact, birds actually lay eggs out of their cloaca, which is the exit point for pee and poop too. And given the size and relative fragility of an egg (from certain directions of compression), they're probably pretty stretchy. A female kiwi can lose like 1/6th of it's body weight after laying an egg.
I wouldn't want to test it out, though.
Tonally this show reminds me a lot of The Boys. The world is absurd but played straight, the writing is dark and funny, the stakes are real enough to keep you invested. It's great.
They announced Season 2 today
Yei!
The Atlantic Ocean off Namibia acting as the Pacific Ocean at Santa Monica . . . I believe.
Yup!
I just realized Maximus actor acts and looks very similarly to a young Denzel Washington
I thought he looks more like Jonathon Majors. They sound different though.
I think Denzel’s youthful characters were more given to palpable, visceral rage. Maximus is every bit as naive as Lucy, just about different things. He doesn’t quite have fiery rage.
Even Maximus’ primal moment when his friend was promoted would have been a lot different had it been young Denzel. I like Aaron Clifton Moten’s take on the character (wistful and angry and insecure) but he does not have Denzel’s sharp edge.
Go back and look at some GLORY (1989) clips. Ain’t no way these two match up in intensity.
At best, I’d call him Denzel Lite Cola.
@@AngeloBarovierSD True, I realize that it his acting feels like what older denzel does with a more restrained and stoic aproach, maybe its the slight sttuter specifically when he said "I.. I wanted it to happen is that wrong" in ep 1. Denzel lite sounds about right
Glad chat told yall the Lucy is Jinx from Arcane. I could totally hear it on the line 'She takes dads". Claroos called out my thought, weird flex by the Ghoul saying Maxiumus can't go upstairs when we just saw him fly into the scene
But can the stairs - and the platform above - take the weight of the power armour?
But that structure would clearly not support his weight if he tries to land on it.
The real issue was in later episode.

The ghoul since he wore power armor before the bombs fell knows it's weak point, and shoots multiple down easily in episode 8. Yet here he shoots the armor for 5 minutes with no result, not aiming at the weak point. Ok we can say he only shot few from frontal, but he was shown as someone with insane accuracy.
Yet this serie is abolutely amazing, for me still 10/10.
@@MolnarG007While this is a show based on a video game, IRL “easily” doesn’t mean video game one-shot easily. Just because you know how to destroy a thing doesn’t mean it still doesn’t take time.
He was saying that the suit was too heavy for single wood planks, I think
The vertibird or the heliplane in the show is based on the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey which has the same shifting turbine design, which was created in 1989.
The moment she built that fire, my army-trained instincts were like "nooo, don't give your position away after dark like that"
The Vertibird is not a real aircraft, but it is fairly similar to a real-world design, the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey. Rotors that act vertically for takeoff and landing, but swivel forward to fly like a fixed-wing aircraft.
I don't think Maximus hurt his friend, I totally think it was one of those other assholes.
Dude I am just now realizing that Dogmeat has a teddy to beat up on in the show! How did I overlook that? Then too it has been so long since I did a FO4 playthrough. It's cracking me up in game every time he pulls the teddy out of his inventory and shakes the crap out of it. Who's a Good Boy?! 🤣
1) That's Ben Linus from Lost. Fun fact if you at all remember Lost.
2) The Vertibird isn't terribly different a design from the real life V-22 Osprey, which uses the same tilting prop design but requires REALLY BIG PROPS and can only aim them forward when already in flight.
3) "EXCUSE ME!!" waving the gun at the guy. That was some truly funny sht. That's what I love about the show AND the games is that fun combo of jumpscare horror and comedy. The bizarreness is real and excellent. 🙂
4) "It's not that big of a penis..." Lol you guys are too funny. 🤣
5) Rewatching ep 1 with you guys made me think of something... Those raiders must have really been raging inside when Lucy's dad gave the rousing speech about saving America. All this time the Vaulties have been hiding underground, people have been living topside doing the best they can, and meanwhile the Vaulties are SO blind to all that struggle. No wonder they're so hated by the surface dwellers.
6) Just in general, the show is VERY faithful to the games, especially visually... at least FO4 which is all I am really familiar with. It really does feel like a live action Fallout game, and I've enjoyed telling friends "Wow the new Fallout game's graphics are fkin AMAZING!" with regard to the show, lol.
7) That conversation between Lucy and Ma June was SO good. The way Ma is fascinated and disgusted by Lucy at the same time was perfect. Lucy's a hermit crab without a shell and still trying to pitch the Vault's mission to save the world, to someone that's been topside all along, through all the mayhem. Really great scene.
Close your eyes and listen to Elle and you can hear Jinx sometimes.
Harold and Bear reunited at last. Gotta love it
For easily digestible cliff notes on the world before the bombs, I recommend checking out the cinematic opening to Fallout 4 that shows before the character creation screen. It should be easily found on CZcams. It obviously doesn't cover everything but covers enough imo.
On another channel, one of the hosts suggested that "Filly" was an abbreviation of landfill. The tomatoes made sense as tomato and watermelon seeds are all but indestructible and would thrive once given earth air and sun.
A lot of the areas for episode 1 and 2 were filmed on the Skeleton Coast in Namibia
The evolution in Lucy's character can be seen in her delivery of "Oki Doki" During her, uhm wedding night it's all bright-eyed and upbeat. When she leaves the vault it's already more apprehensive and during the headcutting it's more resolute with a hint of disgust. It pays to notice how she brings it from here on in. It's a wonderful piece of writing and acting.
After seeing the entire season, I think they should give the Maximus actor a shot at the Kang role if it's not too late.
Kang is an easy role to recast!
The Ghoul must have the "Bloody Mess" perk. It's glorious!
3:36 - that shipwreck and the sand-filled houses are real locations in Namibia, Africa. The houses are in an abandoned mining town. So much of this season is real locations and physical props, rather than CGI. Even the power suit is real.
The vertibirds (Brotherhood of Steel aircraft) are a unique design for Fallout, but are likely inspired by the Osprey.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_Boeing_V-22_Osprey
And other VTOL vehicles.
Nice reaction, great show.:). About flying tough ... The Bernoulli equation. We do know how we fly, its physics.
Clarus' face expressions in this episode are an action movie of its own ^_^
Not only is Ella the voice of Jinx in Arcane, but she can't seem to get away from staplers as we saw in ep 1 ;)
Ella Purnell is also awesome in Yellowjackets.
Also, was not expecting the Sweeney Todd reference. Bravo.
14:00 there was that guy in Italy in the 90s who was crushed by falling rocks whilst enjoying "quality time" with a chicken
the "she steals dads" line sounded very much like jinx. or to be more accurate, both lucy and jinx sound like ella. 😄
please tell me others picked up the Justified reference in this episode, when Lucy was delivering her little monologue to the Ghoul?
Look up the V-22 Osprey. it's a rotor wing helicopter/plane designed to give you the short takeoff landing \ vertical lift of a helicopter (VTOL and STOL) while giving you the range and capabilities of an airplane. At first they killed a lot of pilots now they're doing much better. Used mainly by the marine corps and owned by the department of the Navy. I've seen a few take off and land in Iraq and although they're cool they're good at everything but not great at anything. I was in an Army Aviation unit and preferred our Chinook \ Blackhawk \ Apache Brigade over those mutants
6:34 wait till bro discovers prop planes 😭
Yes, this plane can work. engines vertical work like as in an helicopter, pitch toward horizontal for forward movement, more like a plane.
The British Harrier do something similar with jet engines ( Trust instead of lift ).
That specific helicopter is a fallout design called Vertibird and CGI but it is somewhat similar to a real aircraft used by the US Army the V-22 Osprey. So tilt rotor aircraft despite looking weird do exist.
Lucy is a female Ned Flanders.
18:30 "Those are some special bullets." Also lore accurate. The Goul must have the "Bloody Mess" perk.
Lucy is absolutely the name of John’s daughter in the Die Hard series (Die Hard 4) and she kind looks similar to Mary Elizabeth Winstead so I absolutely agree this is in the same universe and she’s a descendent 👍🏻😁
The slow dissolution of "Okie-Dokie"...
After you mentioned that Ella Purnell was Jinx's VA I totally heard it when she said "They steal dad's!"
John McClane's daughter from Die Hard was named Lucy BTW
Okey dokey.
Lucy's naivete and HR management approach to everything is hysterical.
The show-runners don't take themselves too seriously, the only thing they take seriously is the Fallout universe. It's why the series works.
I was surprised how "game-y" this series felt. But it has so many nods to the game it could have overwhelmed it and felt cartoonish but this has sat on the edge of that pin, perfectly.
CRAM Created Alternative to Meat. The teddy bear is an easterr egg from Fallout 4 Dogmeat. I'm rhinking Titus was trying to get his squire killed as part of his mission.
Also, base version turrets in Fallout 4 are known for being worthless bc they never hit their target lol. Another easter egg.
Her last name is actually McLean, not McClane. The show is just choosing to pronounce it incorrectly. However, John McLanes's daughter's name actually was Lucy.
"There's simply no room inside a chicken for a penis" is a sentence I never thought I'd hear, let alone in a CZcams video, but.... let me tell you how hard I awkwardly laughed at that 😅
Man I love watching non-Fallout players like y’all watch this series. Good stuff. Also the turrets in the games are notoriously inaccurate, so that was a nod to the games.
'How can you jubilate sitting in cages, never taking wingggggggg' I was with you!! hahahaha
The Vertibirds function like the V-22 Ospreys of the US military. The engines and props rotate from horizontal to vertical for takeoff and then back to horizontal for travel.
The bombs fell in 2077 I think because super conductors were never invented which is why they still have the glass tubes
Super conductors were invented, just way later.
Semiconductors
@VerticalBlank I didn't receive any sort of education my apologies spelling and grammar suck lol
On the timeline the bombs fell in 2177. However this is an alternate universe. A world where the world was culturally similar to 1960s. So despite it looking retro it is the future.
cheers you two. I enjoyed your chat with this episode. I already watched the whole series but living it through reactors like you is great. Thank you
Hey, that's Ben, from LOST! He can't be a good guy.
32:00 These duys are very diffrent from the brotherhood we see in the games. There they are good guys, yeah stuck up good guys with a pole the size of alaska up their behind but good guys at any rate.
To be fair, that's how the tone of the games is, especially Fallout 3 and moving forward, which the show mostly references. Original were the same in tone, but still, a bit different, and certainly different genre/gameplay.
"Ohh, it's a puppy"
~one second later~
*disgusted face*
I love all the little call backs to the games. The inaccurate turrets and the casually holding a gun on someone while initiating a casual conversations.
A lot of people think maximus dropped his weapon but actually the ghoul shot it out of his hand, in the game when you use the V.A.T.S. system you can target limbs, heads, weapons, grenades in mid air, the ghoul rockin the vats critical build lol
Okie dokie.
Will say the Brotherhood is hard to pindown for it’s ideology because it changed a lot through the games
For the 'helicopter', google "Osprey". It's a VTOL craft used by the US military.
I love seeing CX404 with her little teddy bear.
Nerdy: "You can't fuck a chicken!" Clarus: "Its got holes, ain't it?"
The aircraft in real life is used in the Air Force and the Marines. Look up the V22 Osprey.
Titus just wanted to shoot stuff, they just got "lucky" and found the doc's gear by the cave.
