      My friend was yelling at me and giving me grief only after he watched me walk into the Quarry not knowing what I was in for, only for him to sit in silence as I snuck through and made it through on my first playthrough. I was saved by the NCR patrol that tried hunt me down and only saved me as I was being chased by a death law exploiting the fact it couldn't reach me on certain rocks on the cliff leading to the squad dying and me getting their gear at low level 😅😆😂🤣

    In Fallout 4, the quest "Devil's Due", where you can either sell or return a Deathclaw egg to its mother was glitched in my case, and I sold the egg in its pristine condition despite returning it to the mother. What's weirder is that it was still in my inventory afterwards.
    So, I did the logical thing: gently place the egg inside Shaun's crib, alongside a comfy pillow, teddy bear and baby rattle. A few days later, the egg was nowhere to be found.
    I like to think somewhere out there, an Alpha Deathclaw sees a man in a Vault Suit, and a single word comes up in his primal mind:
    _"Mama?"_

      Fun fact: chameleon's chromatophores (color changing cells) don't actually function as camouflage, it's actually the exact opposite. It's used for visual communication and is often a mood ring, changing to brighter colors when agitated. Deathclaws seem to be similar but also able to camouflage, trying to stay hidden when resting or stalking prey but flashing bright colors when in combat.
      Normal chameleons can't use their chromatophores to camouflage likely because of their low intelligence. Cephalopods are a good example of what it looks like to combine chromatophores with a brain powerful enough to use them with intent

I've spent a lot of time in 3 and New Vegas watching them trying to skirt by and avoid a fight (I'm really bad at games but I love RPGs) and it's grown a fondness in me for them. Some part of me desperately wants a chance to raise one in one of the games and I was quite excited in FO4 to be able to reunite the mother with her egg. I didn't even question if I wanted to sell it and I never have in any play through.

    The intelligent deathclaw could have been an interesting random encounter or questline where there's an evil deathclaw that lures humans by it's voice which has made a settlement worried about their settlers disappearing over the couple of weeks and not coming back.
    Honestly, if Fallout 4 had deathclaws mimic human voices I would be more scared of them since they could then be a random encounter where legendary Deathclaws could be hiding trying to convince you someone is in need of help only for them to attack you once you approach near their stalking grounds. To make it more believable they wouldn't appear until a certain level and before that only real settlers would ask for help, but after that it would be 50/50.
    A Deathclaw follower wouldn't have been too bad. Would be cool to see a Deathclaw grow from a hatchling (which in turn makes the game needing small deathclaws) and grow as you level up and at a certain level it would be at it's strongest. The only bad thing about it is how would it move around buildings? It would require new animations that makes it go on 4 legs in small areas, definetly better A.I and probably new types of buildings that requires the player to figure out ways to make our friend able to enter such as opening a gate by using computers or lockpicking a garage door.
    A deathclaw questline where you get one as a follower would be awesome anyways, especially if it was a very intelligent one.

    In my theory/headcanon i think the Fallout 4's Deathclaws existed before the Master perfected them.
    While their wit is great, their strength lacks by a significant amount compared to their West Coast Bretheren.
    This is somewhat confirmed by the existance of these Deathclaws in Fallout 76, but it's canon legitimacy is doubtful looking at the mess that is it's beastiary.
    But if this is true we can expect them to meet and even fight with one another, and maybe even reproduce to create the ultimate Deathclaw that is unmatched in strength and wit.

    Don't forget the Deathclaws from Fallout tactics.
    They're intelligent to actually fight for the BoS after being rescued from enslavement and atleast the matriarch can talk (in english as well), albeit somewhat with a lisp.
    Though, they're supposed to be Hairy Deathclaws according to the wiki, so perhaps they actually have more intelligence?

    I remember playing FO4 and i encountered a deathclaw... Infact 2 deathclaws in the dlc where you go to meet dima in far harbour. The 2 deathclaws would crawl on all fours and they would dash at such a fast rate of speed that even an upgraded minigun would have a hardtime hitting the target, so imagine a horde of these with body armour strapped on by the US military going up against an army of 1000 soldiers. It would end in only bloodshed

  • @jonathanocchi7044

    An entire Fallout story could easily be made to incorporate “Hairy Deathclaws”. There’s the Himalayans, Northern Rockies up into Alaska, the Ural Mountains, etc. Hell, any of those places would kick ass.
    They could easily be the yetis of the Fallout world. Bethesda could’ve stumbled into this blindfolded and still hit a bullseye…my best guess any way lol.

      i'm pretty sure that's just your skills as a a gamer improving between the two games and fallout 4 having vastly improved gameplay mechanics.
      in my experience the generic, unnamed death claws from new vegas are way easier to kill than fallout 4 ones, provided you don't try to fight them in your birthday suit. you can kill one or two NV death claws before they even get in melee range.

    Tactics had probably the most faithful design in terms of making what the Deathclaws were originally supposed to look like. I also don't know who no other Deathclaw design has a nose horn like the Tactics design considering that's the only defining feature to make it appear like a Horned Jackson's Chameleon.
