@@MrBennytime Huh? I'm referring to the scripted event where we first meet him murdering some random farmer. Were you trying to reply to a different comment and misclicked?
I don’t think that he is chaotic evil but lawful evil because he fallows a set of codes as he is a part of the enclave and though what he does is morally wrong he keeps to a set of ideals
I've always thought that a fun spinoff game would be you playing as Frank but you don't know that it's frank until the end when he starts mutating from the FEV. Idk I think it'd be a cool concept if done right
I love Frank because he’s basically a Super Mutant Behemoth with power armor and who kept control of his mind. We haven’t seen such a threat to the wasteland since!
I wouldn’t say he’s a behemoth… given he isn’t the size of a small building… perhaps he’s on the way to becoming one though (remember the affect of the FEV is that the sufferer never really stops growing which is why ‘Behemoth’s’ exist because they literally grew to that size!
As someone who never played Fallout 1 and 2 sadly (Was too young but Ive checked so many playthroughs these last 2 years) I love these stories! Love from The Netherlands!
Good video. I wish you had talked about the other Frank encounters. Like with the talking death claws at Vault 13 and Brotherhood of Steel Outpost at San Francisco.
Also cain from robocop 2, but with him it was just the brain on highly dosed drugs. The brain in the jar before his transformation was pretty impressive to me as a child as he stared lidless into the camera not being able to do a thing...
Yeah , it was brutal what happens to him. Drug dealer or not, they used him like a piece of meat. Condemned him to a life of hell trapped in a cold steel body. Addicted to drugs, that they used to control him. Reckon it got him that twisted up , angry and bitter. It's why we see he killed his girlfriend, cause he knew she only accepted his transformation out of fear. And he could never have what he had with her again,like what he did before.
Fallout has a lot of good music, especially FO1 and FO2. You could play one of those songs in the background but quietly so we can hear the story. Each theme has its own music. It would be great, it would give the video a special atmosphere.
Going back to 90'school tropes, my head cannon is going to be that he was a gentically grown specimen indoctrinated since opening his gestational cask to believe solely in the Enclave's doctrine, and everything he was put through was intentionally done. Also possible he wasn't the first one. They had over 100 years after all.
A little bit of trivia that not many know: There is a mutated toe that you get in game after visiting the doctor outside of vault city and asking him to remove it. You can use this toe on Frank Horrigan to instantly kill him.
I found him to be more compelling of a final boss big-bad than many of the others from the other Fallot titles. He was a monster, but it's not hard to understand his motivations.
My only problem with Fiona claim is they say they hate mutants so damn much yet they let something like Frank horrigan live only cuz they don't want to get their own hands dirty so they send someone else out to do their dirty work like cowards
I never played 1 or 2 , 3 was my first one and fav, but 2 is my second even though I haven't played it I've seen enough to like the story, I also like it's protagonist the most with lone wanderer from 101, I like how this channel gives the chosen one recognition, he is the strongest protagonist by far i think, courier may be durable but chosen one is the toughest all around and faced the toughest antagonist. Lanius is a joke compared to horrigan
As a Resident Evil and Fallout fan he is more like Nemesis or Mr x in my opinion, a tyrant BOW. Both series are from the 90s too, cyberpunk dude is a lightweight. Good video though
@@JMT420 You have to ask? Because Bethesda has made the IP into a profitable farce that has little if anything to do with the original setting. They have intentionally discarded the proper setting and the proper gameplay for a simplified (mass-audience) friendly version of each that sells to kids, and young adults. Nothing they have added has been any improvement, while having been generally detrimental and devalued the setting.
@@leafy126.5 "just because its a profitable ip doesnt mean its not canon." That's the problem; it's canon by fiat. Profitability is not the issue. The issue is damaging the product for profit sake; IE. similar to if the Kraft/Heinz Company were to reformulate their Vegemite brand to taste like (and compete with) Nutella. Sure... adding sugar, and removing the salt and yeast would make it palatable to the mainstream consumer, but at the cost of no longer being Vegemite; as has happened with the recent Fallout games. They are Fallout in name only, and have been ever since Bethesda bought the rights.
@@GizmoJunk womp womp. Fallout 4 has alot of good to it, and you just dont see it. Even 76 has some crazy good contributions to the fallout universe aside from having a lacking story.
Maybe the farmer mission required leaving a witness. So he was literally waiting for someone to show up so he could kill the guy.
Would be, But Besesthda aren't fans of using lore established by the original games.
And they avoid the west coast for that very reason.

@@sockshandleThat's right, he's not a behemoth mutie. He's only around 12 ft tall apparently.
Byfar my favorite Fallout content creator - keep it up good sir, can't get enough!

Thanks! I appreciate the kind words.
They still hold up pretty well with some modding. Fallout 1 in particular is really easy to mod and play in FO2, definitely recommend giving it a try.
You can play them on your phone
Just the name "the oil rig" tells you it's gonna be real bad
Oil is bad? Your vehicle runs on rainbows?
It sounds like a real bad place to be held prisoner

He’s an awesome villain though. We need more of him somehow

Agreed
Same guy Mark Morgan does a lot of similar soundtracks. Planescape Torment was just as good
He's almost exactly like Nemesis from resident evil
They have to level the punch skill to 300.
You might have 20 Gauss rifle turrets but the one settler that got kidnapped 😡
He's clearly a lawful evil alignment
I will never forget first play through of fallout 2 when I went to leave the oil rig and found Frank waiting for me

I like the story of F1&2 but never played and don’t like TD format games. Are they worth trying though? At least 2 for the sake of Frank Horrigan?
Excluding the player characters, Frank Horrigan is the strongest entity in the fallout universe.
He will always be a staple in the games lore.
even compared with the player characters hes the strongest
"Duty *cough* honor... Courage... Semper Fiiiii"
I never played FO2 but it had to be one of the most satisfying games to beat, with as long and complicated as it was.
I found him to be more compelling of a final boss big-bad than many of the others from the other Fallot titles. He was a monster, but it's not hard to understand his motivations.
Man, I wish I could be Frank Horgan in fallout 76
Maybe not be him, but be something like him

Why is bro so giggly?
Who do people who use "bro" so self serious?
I mean, even Darth Vader had a backstory 🤷

Nothing past Fallout 2 should ever be taken seriously or thought of as canon. Half of the stuff in Fallout 2 itself shouldn't be taken seriously.
Whys that?
