    Oof - Alright some notes - This was another long one!
    New Vegas did feature another "Alien reference", in the form of a small UFO camp with a few aliens we could encounter. However, it was locked behind the "Wild Wasteland" perk and pretty clearly just for giggles, furthermore even if it wasn't, it wouldn't have changed anything in the video. So I cut that.
    "Zeta Rays" - Are obviously an Alien technology that posses some capacity for calming individuals and improving one's mental state. Notably, Jack Cabot offers the Sole Survivor a Zeta weapon to use against Lorenzo in the Cabot House quest-line and it very likely boasts similar origins.
    June 25th, 2020 is Mr. House's birthday.

      I still believe the zetans are trying to help humanity. I think they want to evolve humans to be more like them since science suggests that humans are headed on a similar evolutionary path to the zetans. I believe they genuinely have our best interest at heart. The only reason they seem so cruel is because, to them, it's very similar to animal testing. That's just my thoughts on the matter.

      Brilliant Idea. But there's no guarantee that the memory den works on a Zetan or if it's even possible to create a Zetan-Synth. Capturing one and in order to give him to the Institute for further research would be interessting. Maybe their scientists could build some sort of device in order to communicate with the Zetan.

    Fallout 3 has or had computer entries and audio logs that inferred the Zetans were the ones that caused the bombs to be launched in the first place. It’s been over a decade since I last went through Fallout 3 but that was one of the major plot points I can remember from the Mothership Zeta dlc. If I’m not mistaken there’s another location somewhere in the capital wasteland that has a computer entry that also suggests a foreign entity had control over the missile launch sites.

    I'd like to imagine the reason they don't invade is to avoid meddling with the interloper and other eldritch horrors that probably outrank them in terms of power. At least that's my head canon, and the zetan's are just watching from afar or being careful to not provoke the cthulhu creatures underneath the fallout.

      Well, if both theories are true, it could mean that the ancient aliens that first seeded Earth could have either been ancient Zetans, or a rival race of the Zetans, and they are just studying the result. Might actually explain why Zetans care so much about humans to use them for their Abomination research.

    In Fallout 4 before you head into the cave to find the alien there’s actually a radio signal that you can tune into of the alien talking, possibly attempting to radio for help from other aliens. Once you go into the cave you can actually find the radio that the alien was using, and once you kill it the transmission goes offline.

    First, the most obvious part: having to pay to get ranks. That's literally what Scientology does. You have to pay a ton of money to get a higher rank.
    Then, the origin story of the "religion". The founder was a Sci-fi writer, just like Scientology's founder. The concept of a Starfather and the idea of ascencion through him, returning to planet Earth as Gods.

You should look up the history of Scientology. Back in 1998 we didn't know anywhere near as much about them as we do now, they were much more of a mystery and powerful in Hollywood. Hell it was seven years before South Park even made fun of them and put them more on everyone's radar. 1998 was MUCH closer to Operation Snow White, when Scientology infiltrated the US government's most powerful institutions to purge records of their own work.
      You're nuts if you think Bethesda somehow "risked more". Scientology has been the butt of tons of jokes since the early 2000s, and they've hemorrhaged membership ever since that South Park episode. It took way more balls back then than the easy target they are now.

      @@RE4PER Still, it's not the only thing he missed with this video.
      Bethesda obviously drew a lot of inspiration from Scientology.
      The inventor of Hubology was apparently named Richard Hubbell, which is not too far from L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology. Also, the central theme of Zeta is most likely inspired by Theta, another greek letter. The Thetan is supposed to be the spirit of every human, going through several cycles of rebirth like in Hinduism.
      And just like Hubology, in Scientology you're forced to pay humongous sums of money to advance levels to be "further enlightened", and I suspect the founder to have originally conceived this as a scam, but since he's long gone there's probably nobody left inside the loop who actually knows the truth, just as it is with Richard Hubbell. I can't cite any sources, but apparently there's some of these levels nobody has reached yet that just catch dust in a safe somewhere in their central office, much like this level 9 of Hubology.
      There's more similarities, but I guess you catch my drift.

      I actually really like this theory, it fits incredibly well with the whole theme of the Zetans being the most stereotypical and cliche 1950s aliens possible, with a weakness similar to War of the Worlds. However, I think the community is failing to take into account one (possibly) related questline. Lorenzo Cabot and the artifact helmet he brought back from a lost desert city, which made him immortal and not only gave him psychic powers, but was said to not be crafted by human hands. He also went out of his way to hide the location of the ancient ruins he found, and stated that it was neither a temple nor a tomb, but didn't elaborate further. All of this used as context makes me think the Zetans were never trying to invade the Earth, so much as looking for something they had lost a long time ago.

      You have a point, but a species that advanced surely has access to terraforming technologies, or had access to that technology from having found a G.E.C.K. or similar tech somewhere in the universe. The planet being nuked wouldn't stop a super advanced race of aliens from inhabiting a Tomb World. It's kind of a stellaris type thing. Once you reach far enough in the game, you can terraform any kind of planet, even one cleansed by nuclear fire and drenched in death.
      There's an ulterior motive to what the aliens are doing on the earth, and habitation seemed like the least likely instance. Otherwise they would have seized control of all governing bodies and kept something like the great war from even happening, and no one would be the wiser.

    Then there’s the alien spaceship crashing overhead in Fallout 3 that drops the Firelance, another variant of the alien blaster.
    Also I remember reading that the bio med gel in Robobrains, Robodogs, and the robots at Big MT is based on alien tech.

    The last thing you said got me thinking; perhaps and most likely, Bethesda's has no idea where the Zetan story arc or purpose is going. What if, they're just holding out and looking at various fan theories and deciding to make a backstory from the most popular or credible ones? In a sense, us doing the work for them? That way no one really loses and in the end, they simply plucked the communities ideas up and ran with them...efficient and effective, if not a bit lazy. Just a thought.

      That's stupid, why would they care about radiation? If they were after a nice place to colonize they could just build space habitats literally anywhere with quadrillions of times the livable space, with whatever climate, geography, flora and fauna they wanted. If they were after resources they could just mine billions of times more material from the asteroid belt much more easily because you don't have to bother with gravity. It's just Bethesda being stupid again.

    There is a comic book in FO4 called "Attack of the Zetans" or something like that, which suggests pop culture was atleast aware of them. Could have just selected a generic alien name, but quite a coincidence to get it right.

      It's also possible that people are simply referring to the aliens as Zetans because that's what aliens had been called in pop-culture already. Upon finding real ones, people have just resorted to calling them by the pre-established term.
      Like if we were to find real aliens today and started calling them Xenomorphs, simply because it's a term people are familiar with.

  • @taelim6599

    Could the Zetans have some kind of connection to the ancient precursors that the Cabot family was researching? By completing Jack Cabot's questline, you can find several unique gamma guns known as zeta guns (though they are incredibly weak, you'd literally make them stronger just by turning it into a regular gamma gun), and the precursors seemingly had psychic technology, having created Lorenzo's artifact and the mysterious serum. Maybe the precursors were just an abandoned Zetan colony, and the Zetans orchestrated the Great War to prevent humanity from studying the ruins (which could mean Lorenzo accidentally indirectly caused the Great War by studying the ruins back in the 1800s. Maybe his actions put the Zetans on high alert and paved the way for the rest of humanity to discover and study the ruins), or maybe the precursors were a rival civilization that presented a real threat to the Zetans back when they were still alive.

      I think his artifact is more Eldritch based than Alien based considering the city he was describing is very similar to how Relyth is described. Zeta is most likely a powerful energy source from time immemorial that weakens them. That’s why the zeta rays the Hubs bombard you with increase intelligence because it blocks their power for a time.

      Honestly there's tons of weird forces at work in fallout. Eldritch,magical,super science,alien. If it's appeared in science fiction fallout has room for it. I could see the two in particular being completely unrelated in a narrative sense yet could easily end up interacting if fallout 76 keeps getting updates.
      Especially if they decide to do a full on alien themed event with side content of them looking at the eldritch stuff and not knowing what the fuck that's all about either

When the clip of Robert House was playing I knew I heard that voice somewhere before. Obviously I had to look it up and was surprised to learn the voice actor is none other than René Murat Auberjonois, the same actor who played Odo in Star Trek DS9. I guess Robert House really did get into space in a round about sort of way.
