One of my favorite things about Bethesda games, for all their flaws and issues, is that you can play them 10,000 times and still run into little scenes, side stories, lore tidbits, etc. that you've never seen before.
Yeah, that what I love about them. I especially loved Fallout 3 and it's metro system for that. There are tons of things off the beaten path that lead to great side stories and finds.
WaveForceful I love fallout 3 and what you’ve said it’s just a good game I beat NV and got every adchievement but NV felt plain a bit more then FO3 Fallout4 is pretty much better then NV and fallout 3 but still had some flaws FO76 we never talk about But fallout is still a good series and I love watching Lore vids
WaveForceful although Oxhorn does cheat when he plays the Lore vids as you notice his ammo is either at 999 or it’s empty and he gets more he’s still a good Lore TH-camr
@@toddbridges8445 Yeah, Fallout 76 was wasted potential. I liked both 3 and New Vegas almost equally. New Vegas was superior in almost every aspect however. Fallout 4 was alright too but something about it didn't allow it to capture my attention the way New Vegas and 3 did.
From the terminal entries Isabella wasn't doing medical experiments on the ghouls, but rather observing how they acted socially. So I highly doubt she was looking for a cure, trying to weaponize them or anything like that. The entries read more like wildlife documentaries where people would observe and report on the behavior of packs of wild animals. I'm not sure who would pay for such knowledge in the wasteland. Even the handful of people who do study ghouls have been interested in the physical aspects of the affliction. Trying to stop or reverse whatever turns ghouls feral and things like that. So I tend to think that she was just someone with a fascination with ghouls and how they interact. An ultimately unhealthy and fatal fascination as it turned out.
Someone at Bethesda had clearly watched 'Gorillas in the Mist' before designing this bit. However, while a Silverbacks dominance display of beating its chest is scarily impressive, a Glowing One's display of shedding a couple of thousand rads at once would overwhelm any radiation protection short of a foot thick lead shield. As they say, curiosity killed the cat...
This is what I love about this game, the fact so many years later I can still learn more locations. I have explored most of the game but little, cut off places like this I missed.
I wonder why there isn’t a faction out there dedicated to cleaning up the radiation. You’d think there would be a group called the “Pre-warers” or “old world dreamers” that’ll try to make the wasteland less irritated. Maybe even have you do a quest that cleans up water or injecting a radiation eating bacteria idk.
There is. You encountered it in Fallout 3. Your father was a big player in it and one of their chief brains. The entire plot of the game revolved around Project Purity, the project to try and fully de-radiation and make clean the entirety of the DC Wasteland's water supply, the Enclave's takeover of said project and attempt to weaponize it, and the Brotherhood of Steel's attempt to stop them. You literally spend _the entirety of Fallout 3_ fighting for either _exactly that cause,_ or _exactly that cause except adding a virus that eventually kills all mutant life._
If I'm not mistaken, Isabella Proud is based off of Dian Fossey who was a well renowed primatologist who studied the social behaviors of a few groups of gorillas. My theory for Proud's death would be that from having made herself highly radioactive she made it seem like she was challenging Samuel's alpha status. Doesn't seem like it was her intention but Samuel may have felt his status was being threatened so he attacked and killed both Pround and Jason to assert his dominance as alpha of the pack.
Possibly. Though I'm wondering about the third radiation suit. Maybe Jason grabbed a clean suit and the one Proud had doused with resin was left behind at the tent. And when the ghouls started attacking Jason, Proud attempted to intervene thus giving away her disguise. Just a theory.
I just wonder how they would survive after highly irradiating the suit's When you are not wearing them you are taking the very high rad levels When you are taking them off you are taking the high rads etc If you are storing them anywhere near you, you are still getting the rads If you carry them the same thing I really think that was a very very stupid thing to do

I recently came from a Fallout 4 video in Nula-World. He censored the curse words with the standard censor beep. He does censor them, his videos are monotized, and TH-cam doesn't care about the blood and gore. That's quite a few likes!
I just think it's really cool the Bethesda would tuck such a tragic and interesting little story in a nook that most players would likely never find on their own. It takes some real gall to be willing to make content that your know most players will never experience.
How do you not easily have 2 mil subs bro, your content is fire. Your content is so thorough and explains a lot. You’re no nonsense and straight forward, got a velvet voice and you’re good at keeping the vocabulary clean (at least on your part). Youre pretty good at what you do my man.
I found fallout 4 on a free access weekend, and let’s just say thanks to oxhorn’s videos fallout new Vegas and 3 might make it into my collection as well
Sherlogic 100% worth. If you have a good PC, look into tale of two wastelands mod. Pretty much connects both games and all their content, but gotta legally buy both games and all DLC
feral ghouls in fallout 4 are less lanky and the non feral ghouls literally just look like wrinkly people lol. they should've kept the same "skin flaking off and hair being ruined" theme of ghouls
One of the many things I love about Fallout 3 was the metro tunnels. I understand that they are all quite similar, but going through them in order to explore the D.C ruins was interesting and fun for the most part. At least in my opinion.
Uninteresting fact: I used the Pawnshop as a player home for a long time and created lots of mods for it, around the same time I created my Google-Account and didn't knew which name I should set, so I thought it would be funny to use 'Nifty Thrifty'.
Hey It's Will He narrated? I didn't really watch his videos, but I thought he did things like the best setups, gun reviews, etc. If not, who am I thinking of?
ISABELA PROWD Was a post war scientist investigating ghoul's in the immediate post war period, the clue is in the jornal when she talks about 'locals avoid the place' suggesting that there was still peps living in the area and the fact that she was willing to irradiate a clean water source. It is most likely that locals started to turn from atmospheric radiation and she took it upon herself to investigate. After she ireadeated the pool and more ghools started to flock to the area and what locals where left packed up, which is why so much of the area that in not rubble is clean and tidy. Heavy radiation is a preservative on flesh so that's why the bodies still look fresh. the rads have killed all the bacteria that cause decomposition. NB: there are probably more bodies in fallout that look relatively untouched, theses peps would be in or near blast zones and would be buried under or in blast shielded areas, it wouldn't have been the blast that killed them but the radiation, frying them dead but leaving them as effectively glowing ones in there own right, due to the massive amounts of red's they would have assorbed.
do you ever think when your looting stashes like that, man i hope who ever put there stuff here dosent die because i took there food weapons ammo and caps...
Jareth Czulewicz Almost all of it's fair game. Most places we loot are Pre-war buildings that are unoccupied, abandoned camps, camps with Wastelanders already dead, etc. If someone is still using the place, they would probably be there and/or the items would be set to owned. It's highly unlikely we would take resources away from others that still use them, and even if we do, they probably wouldn't die because of it.
Gamerman 375 So, when you come across a shack with a bed and a collection of ammo, caps, food, purified water, your first instinct is that it is fair game? It makes sense for wastelanders to hide their belongings and supplies in hidden stashes in secluded places that look abandoned. They don't have secure homes and unless they are into farming or part of a large settlement, they are living a semi-nomadic/ nomadic life of sorts. They would live in multiple places and can't be everywhere at once. That would be my lore-friendly opinion on some of the stashes. Obviously, for gameplay reasons, they can't add an npc for every loot location so that's why the places look deserted. But, I think the gameplay reason just further adds to the world-building experience. By not making yet more npc's that are frozen there waiting for the player to arrive and interact with them, the player can use his/her imagination and speculate as to the reason the loot is just laying there for the taking. Maybe it is theft and you just never encounter the owner(s). Or maybe they died a long time ago. Or maybe it doesn't matter because there are no laws in the wasteland. All up to you.
The Woolly Eel It also wouldn't seem logical for them to hide things in secret stashes because it's kind of obvious that people scrounging for anything useful will look everywhere to find it. Unless it's locked and/or protected (or owned of course), I don't see why it wouldn't be okay to go ahead and loot it.
As a resident of Takoma Park, it feels interesting having my hometown appear in a Fallout Game. Even though Takoma isn't on the Silver Line, it's on the Red Line. :/
I bet you Isabella was killed by ghouls, but for a certain reason. She coated her suit and Jasons suit so much, that the glowing was feeling threatened by their amounts of radiation and thought they were trying to take over his position as the alpha, so the glowing one killed them to ensure his position as alpha.
I adore you excellent pronunciation and simply the way that it’s very easy to understand what you’re saying. I also love these lore videos, not all hero’s wear capes.
It's not boring pointless or repetitive it's a means to travel to different areas which you can fast travel to ultimately avoiding the tunnels you traveled to get there so how are they boring pointless and repetitive?
This was a great video I've been down to Takoma Park dozens of times and never bothered to explore but I thought it was weird to see a tent in the middle of nowhere and why a pond was irradiated mostly why I never explore like you is because the Xbox 360 version of Fallout 3 is shit I always get stuck on simple level design and small areas it's very annoying to get out of a crevice you fall into And the artillery button was a surprise I never bothered to explore that truck
Great vid Ox. Coming out of Takoma Station is one of the toughest fights in the entire game. It's critical to stay well clear of the cars and don't let your companions get ahead of you or you're toast.
My favorite thing about this guy is the constantly varying tone and inflection of his voice going between game show host, in character magician and sinister narrator lol it makes everything a little more fun to watch
Eh, she probably just came from Rivet City. And I'd hardly call her "expedition" funded. She had to find the terminal and the power source. Supplies were scavenged. If she were hired by someone, she would have gotten more than one guy backing her up.
What if a Wastelander moved into the Thrift Store and used it as their home before moving out for whatever reason or before becoming a Super Mutant? Great vid as always, Ox!
I have been training with this stuff lately, and I've been in trouble for it too, so I share it with you. Cement is a component of concrete which is used for buildings and roadways.
Okay, I'm on a Fallout Lore binge. Earlier today I watched the FO4 vid on the Bobrov brothers. Every time Ox says Mirelurk today all I can hear is Hawthorne mockingly saying "A Mirelurk" in a strange accent... lol
So, Oxhorn surved in ww1, was feared enough that men called him a god, so they had to confirm that he was not a god, and then he gained wizard powers to summon puppies
Why did I feel during your story that the ghouls didn’t kill Isabelle but maybe they were attracted to the resin , overwhelmed the two and the two suffocated in the suits ? Mainly because they were whole and in the suits when found. And no blood…
I discovered that artillery truck at a very early level in my latest playthrough. Almost lost Dogmeat to that damn Behemoth. Fortunately while he was cornered between some cars, the mutant targeted only him and allowed me to blast it with my Terrible Shotgun over & over 'til we got'em. Dogmeat was a goddamn hero that day.
Can you try to make more profiles on characters? I loved Cait's, and Piper's profile and was hoping you can find more characters to make profiles on...! Of course it doesn't have to be in FO4 but maybe NV, or FO3?
Maybe there was a different cause for Jason and Isabella's death. Remember how there was an extra suit at the research station? And how Isabella coated only Jason's suit? Maybe he decided to where the other suit to the crater and Isabella didn't notice. I think that would have killed them.
Usually the most simple explanation is the one that makes the most sense. Isabella was just a researcher looking into the social behavior of ghouls. She got too familiar and got herself and her friend killed. There’s no funding from some nefarious third party, or any conspiracy.
this was the most detailed and exciting place to visit in fallout 3, i found it after 200+ hours game play and was dumbfounded by the detail and exploration
Hey ox love your Vids but I found something in fallout that stumped me in fallout 4, the Brotherhood said that they only have 4 vetibirds but if you do the Brotherhood quest line you see much more even though this could be a editor error or I just misheard it but I'm not sure but thank you for your time
The brotherhood has numerous vertibirds and two different types. They confisicated the Enclave vertibirds but these remained in the CCapital Wasteland. The older vertibirds are the ones that appear in Fallout 4 and they can create more of them and have the means to do so. The brotherhood has numerous and they fly in convoy. The Prydwen can dock 4 vertibirds at one time, the rest must fly in convoy with the prydwen. Once they arrived in the commonwealth they spread across the wasteland. Like the one parked on the police roof. Or the ones you spot flying on patrol. On the fly over to Boston I would assume vertibirds scouted ahead of the Prydwen and protected it during its journey.
Xt4 Killer They have TONS of vertiberds as they can build them because the chosen one in fallout2 stole the virtiberd plans from the enclave for the brotherhood of steel.
Must have shot down at least six or seven when they attacked The Castle after blowing up the airship and still some around trying to get revenge afterwards!!
Some thrift stores will sell new items, mostly overstock or discontinued things. Goodwill does, even seen some new items in The Gospel Rescue Mission where I live.
Lora Elstad I feel like a chop shop in Fallout would be some sort of cannibalistic Pre-war deli that acted like it's beef or pork, but mixed in human flesh.. Oh gosh I could see it now!
Lora Elstad I just can't stand playing as an evil character though. I've tried to go with it, but I just have the tendency to be the most good person possible. I also wonder if my PC can handle Fallout 4, and more importantly Fallout 76 when it comes out. I'll have to look in to it.
Ox, have you made a video on the large deathclaw nest near Nelson in Fallout New Vegas? Its has two den mothers and a Alpha, and many normal ones. And the strangest of it all is that there is two body's there in power armor one is of the Brotherhood of Steel and the other is Enclave power armor. That is strange to see them there like that.
I played FO3 a bunch of times and probably spent somewhere around 300 to 400 hours in the Capital Wasteland but I admit I've been to Takoma Park only once and I can't remember finding that path to Isabella's terminal. Fascinating! This is why I love the world of Fallout, especially FO3. There is still so much to find, to explore, to read, to do.
That sign on the nifty thrifty store reminds me of that quote from slimecicle’s “Minecraft but it’s pay to win (or lose)” and the quote is at the end when he is literally at the end dimension and he discounted all items and mobs and he said after announcing the discounts _”EVERYTHING MUST GO, INCLUDING ME!”_ as he jumps in the portal
28 minutes in and finally gets to the point of the video i love Oxhorn’s videos but man i hate. When most of the video is him walking around and talking about what he sees around him. Im here for lore not a step by step of random factory in the DC ruins
I get it but when it takes 28 minutes to get to the title of the video it feels like clickbait to a degree i have watched Ox for sometime now (since 200,000 subs) but i feel he has moved toward pointless talking about loot that is randomly generated with some unique exceptions
George Lucas For me, I have never played any of the Fallout games but I always watch Oxhorn's videos which help me get to know it better... I love how Oxhorn goes through all the area so I feel I've also explored it. Besides, it just means more minutes to listen and watch while I kill time! Of course this is my opinion yours might be different, no hate! Though I would have just skipped through the video to find the part I'm looking for, besides it said "Takoma Park" which probably meant he was going to spend time to go through Takoma Park so it doesn't feel like Clickbait.
said the person looking like the man that literally had a UN summit that's nearly 1/3 of the first prequal. it's ironic to to see george complaining about oxhorns overblown, annoying, repetitive dialogue when you "george" put jar-jar binks in 3 movies even after the hate he got. so you don't have the right as looking and using george lucas face about overly long detailed explanations about every were he's been
Those tanks don't look like they hold water, they look like they hold propane or jet fuel. Also, how could you look at Charon with that wig on and not laugh at how silly he looked?
Always entertaining watching some guy come along with videos of games a decade after I've played them to death, vanilla and modded from here to hell and back.
Moira. Makes the most sense with her attempting to publish a survival guide. She would have the caps and supplies to back the research and it sounded like they were trying to learn about them to potentially make it safer to be near ghouls for a number of reasons. She also makes allusions to having other previous researchers who likely died during the dangerous research. (like Prof. Farnsworth's previous planet express crew in the beehive in Futurama) How to avoid ghouls, what attracts them, and their favored habitats are great info to give to keep people safe. She develops a treated stick that blows up molerats so maybe she had similar plans for ghouls.
I might just be looking into the way their bodies are positioned a little too much, but the way Jason's body was kind of curled around Isabella's body makes me think she was either injured, or she died first and he held her until the ghouls overpowered him and killed him. Which is sad to think about, but this is Fallout.
Here I was thinking fallout 3 was really barren but you just prove to me I didn’t explore enough in the city. I pretty much stayed on the outskirts and got the main story done, wow have I missed a lot.
You know, fallouts lore is actually quite depressing. It takes about 1,600 years just for half of radiation in something to decay, so, even if the world of fallout rebuilt and Re-established society, it would always be a cold, war torn wasteland. War always leaves a mark, and as stated, war, war never changes.
Oh! I think we know who the money-man is. A certain someone in the scrapyard you only get to meet if you have evil karma. A man who has plenty of "jobs" for you and others like you to take on.
5:28 HE JUST WALKED UP TO THE MIRELURK THAT WAS CRAWLING AWAY AND JUST EXECUTION STYLE KILLED IT AND I DIED AT THIS POINT CUZ OF HOW MUCH IT REMINDED ME OF MOVIES
Im sure we can all agree feral Ghouls are very dangerous and utterly insane, we have people like that in our current society, they are put in padded rooms and left alone, I certainly wouldn't want to go play around with one.
I’ve played soccer against Takoma Park and they are all fast Mexicans thought I would just mention that. They’re also one of the best teams in Maryland

Hey Ox! I have an editing suggestion.
When you censor curse words, what instead of the beep you edited in Preston saying "Settlement".
But why censor them? I mean the whole game has gore and violence.
I D
But my point still stands.
Unless TH-cam doesn't mind the blood, gore, etc.
oxhorn's personal standards?

Maybe it is theft and you just never encounter the owner(s). Or maybe they died a long time ago. Or maybe it doesn't matter because there are no laws in the wasteland. All up to you.
The Woolly Eel If there were items that a Wastelander wanted to keep, it would be set to owned. Simply logic.
The Woolly Eel It also wouldn't seem logical for them to hide things in secret stashes because it's kind of obvious that people scrounging for anything useful will look everywhere to find it. Unless it's locked and/or protected (or owned of course), I don't see why it wouldn't be okay to go ahead and loot it.
As a resident of Takoma Park, it feels interesting having my hometown appear in a Fallout Game. Even though Takoma isn't on the Silver Line, it's on the Red Line. :/
Yay thank you for taking my suggestion and doing this vid Oxhorn! Much appreciated it.
I bet you Isabella was killed by ghouls, but for a certain reason. She coated her suit and Jasons suit so much, that the glowing was feeling threatened by their amounts of radiation and thought they were trying to take over his position as the alpha, so the glowing one killed them to ensure his position as alpha.
How does he upload almost everyday? These videos are so good. Originality, and great commentary with facts. Keep it up ox.👍

He used to upload everyday but now it's really whenever he feels like it. But he has uploaded 3 days in a row which is cool.
I adore you excellent pronunciation and simply the way that it’s very easy to understand what you’re saying.
I also love these lore videos, not all hero’s wear capes.
OK DUDE I NEED TO KNOW, ARE YOU A HISTORIAN? OR A TOUR GUIDE???? THERE'S NO WAY YOU'RE THIS GOOD AS A HOBBY!!!! KEEP UP THE QUALITY WORK OX!!!!
I guess you could say that the subway station...
Is the Perfect Spot for a Mirelurk Den
I could listen to Oxhorn read a takeaway menu and still be entertained.
Exploring The Subway System In-Game: *boring, pointless, and repetitive*
Exploring The Subway System With Oxhorn: *The Exact Opposite*
It's not boring pointless or repetitive it's a means to travel to different areas which you can fast travel to ultimately avoiding the tunnels you traveled to get there so how are they boring pointless and repetitive?
Dang I didn't realize it's been this long since most of the fallout 3 vids and also looking back at this Ox is the calmest man I know
This was a great video I've been down to Takoma Park dozens of times and never bothered to explore
but I thought it was weird to see a tent in the middle of nowhere and why a pond was irradiated
mostly why I never explore like you is because the Xbox 360 version of Fallout 3 is shit
I always get stuck on simple level design and small areas it's very annoying to get out of a crevice you fall into
And the artillery button was a surprise I never bothered to explore that truck
Great vid Ox. Coming out of Takoma Station is one of the toughest fights in the entire game. It's critical to stay well clear of the cars and don't let your companions get ahead of you or you're toast.
I remember when ox only had like 200,000 subs but now hes at like 750,000 sub. Keep it up my boi
Luke Wyckoff
I remember when Ox was making world of Warcraft video's. Before this channel existed. He has come a long way
Tyler Randall agreed
My favorite thing about this guy is the constantly varying tone and inflection of his voice going between game show host, in character magician and sinister narrator lol it makes everything a little more fun to watch
Eh, she probably just came from Rivet City. And I'd hardly call her "expedition" funded. She had to find the terminal and the power source. Supplies were scavenged. If she were hired by someone, she would have gotten more than one guy backing her up.
What if a Wastelander moved into the Thrift Store and used it as their home before moving out for whatever reason or before becoming a Super Mutant?
Great vid as always, Ox!
It's Three Dawwwgggggg bow wow wow coming to you live

I always moth the words to three dogs dialouge when I'm playing fallout 3 XD
JackDWhiskey turn butcher Pete’s disk.
I have been training with this stuff lately, and I've been in trouble for it too, so I share it with you. Cement is a component of concrete which is used for buildings and roadways.
Keep up the good work Ox!
I feel so immersed when he acts with what happens in the game. Keep doing what you’re doing dude!
For some reason, I always thought Takoma Park was a neat location.
I dare say I explored most of these ruins and dungeons but I never bothered to learn the lore behind each one of them. Thank you
As a Takoma Park resident
We don't have a little league
Okay, I'm on a Fallout Lore binge. Earlier today I watched the FO4 vid on the Bobrov brothers. Every time Ox says Mirelurk today all I can hear is Hawthorne mockingly saying "A Mirelurk" in a strange accent... lol
excited to see what Falllout 76 brings for lore! :D
ANGRYWOLVES bro you havent even Seen it yet , stop crying
He doesnt need to see it doe.
Pretty sure Pete Hines is still on board so thats reason enough to estimate the game poorly until proven otherwise.
It will most likely be a fiasco like fallout 4. Bring in obsidan again, they know their shit!
My only hope for Fallout 76 is that it is Fallout New Vegas Mechanics with Fallout 4 Graphics. Also Bigfoot should be there.
Edgie Braahhh
.
That is what i meant dude? :P
I've watched so many of your videos that every time I watch something fallout related i expect to hear your voice
Is oxhorn god? Holy voice, makes miracles, is praised for his work. Yep I think so
Ben Wallerstein, if he can summon puppy out of thin air, I'll believe it
Erik Smith you just gotta believe
Alright fam, I will, nothing happened, mate I think your full of sh- *POOF* A PUPPY!!
th-cam.com/video/cTUZuB0yTEI/w-d-xo.html
But he is still quite great =)
So, Oxhorn surved in ww1, was feared enough that men called him a god, so they had to confirm that he was not a god, and then he gained wizard powers to summon puppies
Why did I feel during your story that the ghouls didn’t kill Isabelle but maybe they were attracted to the resin , overwhelmed the two and the two suffocated in the suits ? Mainly because they were whole and in the suits when found. And no blood…
Every time you say Mirelurk Kings, I keep imaging a mirelurk in Elvis getup.
Or one with an elaborate crown atop its head
@@ChibiPanda8888 Makes more immediate sense your way; much funnier my way. They both work.
I discovered that artillery truck at a very early level in my latest playthrough. Almost lost Dogmeat to that damn Behemoth. Fortunately while he was cornered between some cars, the mutant targeted only him and allowed me to blast it with my Terrible Shotgun over & over 'til we got'em.
Dogmeat was a goddamn hero that day.
Can you try to make more profiles on characters? I loved Cait's, and Piper's profile and was hoping you can find more characters to make profiles on...! Of course it doesn't have to be in FO4 but maybe NV, or FO3?
20 caps saying moira brown somehow convinced those people to study ghouls
If only you would walk us through the Metro Systems in FO 3
he recently has, check his channel playlist
@@RedDogForge that was a long time ago thanks 😊
ya, but his metro series camer out just s lil bit ago. maybe he saw :)
@@RedDogForge : )
It’s already looking great
Maybe there was a different cause for Jason and Isabella's death. Remember how there was an extra suit at the research station? And how Isabella coated only Jason's suit? Maybe he decided to where the other suit to the crater and Isabella didn't notice. I think that would have killed them.
I'm replaying fo3 and love your vids
Low key that’s so cool that my hometown is in this game. Much love from Takoma Park!
OXHORN
Can you do a story on Fallout 3 Metro Molerat Jerky Location near the Diner and Electronics Store?
3 years later and he finally did it!
I don't think I wanna know what they did to the merc in the tent... but dueling banjos is playing in my head for some reason.
Love these lore videos!
Usually the most simple explanation is the one that makes the most sense. Isabella was just a researcher looking into the social behavior of ghouls. She got too familiar and got herself and her friend killed. There’s no funding from some nefarious third party, or any conspiracy.
Oxhorn should collaborate with the storyteller from the Shoddycast
Seven hour long videos on all the fascinating stuff about radroaches.
this was the most detailed and exciting place to visit in fallout 3, i found it after 200+ hours game play and was dumbfounded by the detail and exploration
Hey ox love your Vids but I found something in fallout that stumped me in fallout 4, the Brotherhood said that they only have 4 vetibirds but if you do the Brotherhood quest line you see much more even though this could be a editor error or I just misheard it but I'm not sure but thank you for your time
Xt4 Killer I would assume they got more finishing their fight with the Enclave.
The brotherhood has numerous vertibirds and two different types. They confisicated the Enclave vertibirds but these remained in the CCapital Wasteland. The older vertibirds are the ones that appear in Fallout 4 and they can create more of them and have the means to do so. The brotherhood has numerous and they fly in convoy. The Prydwen can dock 4 vertibirds at one time, the rest must fly in convoy with the prydwen. Once they arrived in the commonwealth they spread across the wasteland. Like the one parked on the police roof. Or the ones you spot flying on patrol. On the fly over to Boston I would assume vertibirds scouted ahead of the Prydwen and protected it during its journey.
Justin Frazier OK thanks I was just confused
Xt4 Killer They have TONS of vertiberds as they can build them because the chosen one in fallout2 stole the virtiberd plans from the enclave for the brotherhood of steel.
Must have shot down at least six or seven when they attacked The Castle after blowing up the airship and still some around trying to get revenge afterwards!!
I saw this in my recommended feed and I thought it was an actual event that happened but when I clicked on it I found out it was Fallout.
what kind of theft store buys and sells new and used cars?
A dedicated one?
Some thrift stores will sell new items, mostly overstock or discontinued things. Goodwill does, even seen some new items in The Gospel Rescue Mission where I live.
Lora Elstad Well that's a darn shame, too bad it wasn't a thrift shop!
Lora Elstad I feel like a chop shop in Fallout would be some sort of cannibalistic Pre-war deli that acted like it's beef or pork, but mixed in human flesh.. Oh gosh I could see it now!
Lora Elstad I just can't stand playing as an evil character though. I've tried to go with it, but I just have the tendency to be the most good person possible. I also wonder if my PC can handle Fallout 4, and more importantly Fallout 76 when it comes out. I'll have to look in to it.
The amount of times Oxhorn said 'rubble' is insane.
More rubble..
I Gotta Stop Playing Fallout 4 And Play 3
THE GAMER90210 yeah fuck fallout 4
Don't play 3 play new vegas
NV?
Get fallout 76
When it’s uot
Ox, have you made a video on the large deathclaw nest near Nelson in Fallout New Vegas? Its has two den mothers and a Alpha, and many normal ones. And the strangest of it all is that there is two body's there in power armor one is of the Brotherhood of Steel and the other is Enclave power armor. That is strange to see them there like that.
Abernathy Station and Abernathy Farm. Bethesda short on name ideas perhaps? :)
Old Mr.Abernathy locked himself in his room again
I'll go to the armory and get the laser pistol * Chak chak * Oh Mr Abernathy? I've come to "set you free"!
Anarchy Antz Abernathy is probably a developer
yep
Also, there doesn't appear to be an Abernathy Station one stop away from Takoma (which does exist IRL) in Washington D.C., so that one was invented.
I played FO3 a bunch of times and probably spent somewhere around 300 to 400 hours in the Capital Wasteland but I admit I've been to Takoma Park only once and I can't remember finding that path to Isabella's terminal. Fascinating! This is why I love the world of Fallout, especially FO3. There is still so much to find, to explore, to read, to do.
Shoutout? I recently bought Fallout 3 GOTY and its fun.
Everybody, may I introduce you to...
*TH-cam Comments Summed Up in TH-cam Comments Colorized*

That sign on the nifty thrifty store reminds me of that quote from slimecicle’s “Minecraft but it’s pay to win (or lose)” and the quote is at the end when he is literally at the end dimension and he discounted all items and mobs and he said after announcing the discounts _”EVERYTHING MUST GO, INCLUDING ME!”_ as he jumps in the portal
28 minutes in and finally gets to the point of the video i love Oxhorn’s videos but man i hate. When most of the video is him walking around and talking about what he sees around him. Im here for lore not a step by step of random factory in the DC ruins
I get it but when it takes 28 minutes to get to the title of the video it feels like clickbait to a degree i have watched Ox for sometime now (since 200,000 subs) but i feel he has moved toward pointless talking about loot that is randomly generated with some unique exceptions
George Lucas
For me, I have never played any of the Fallout games but I always watch Oxhorn's videos which help me get to know it better... I love how Oxhorn goes through all the area so I feel I've also explored it. Besides, it just means more minutes to listen and watch while I kill time! Of course this is my opinion yours might be different, no hate! Though I would have just skipped through the video to find the part I'm looking for, besides it said "Takoma Park" which probably meant he was going to spend time to go through Takoma Park so it doesn't feel like Clickbait.
said the person looking like the man that literally had a UN summit that's nearly 1/3 of the first prequal. it's ironic to to see george complaining about oxhorns overblown, annoying, repetitive dialogue when you "george" put jar-jar binks in 3 movies even after the hate he got.
so you don't have the right as looking and using george lucas face about overly long detailed explanations about every were he's been
George Lucas *Well, if u don't like it you shouldn't watch it, and what diffrence does it do if u bitch about it or not?*
Those tanks don't look like they hold water, they look like they hold propane or jet fuel.
Also, how could you look at Charon with that wig on and not laugh at how silly he looked?
Woah I'm early for once
Great narration. I have started watching these like T.V. shows lately !
wow learned something as always never knew about Isabella before I'll find her in my current playthrough thx for the video as always
Always entertaining watching some guy come along with videos of games a decade after I've played them to death, vanilla and modded from here to hell and back.
A mercenary group called Talon Company hired a mercenary. Thats an inception
He has such a cool voice i want to hear him read a book.
U as
Moira. Makes the most sense with her attempting to publish a survival guide. She would have the caps and supplies to back the research and it sounded like they were trying to learn about them to potentially make it safer to be near ghouls for a number of reasons. She also makes allusions to having other previous researchers who likely died during the dangerous research. (like Prof. Farnsworth's previous planet express crew in the beehive in Futurama) How to avoid ghouls, what attracts them, and their favored habitats are great info to give to keep people safe. She develops a treated stick that blows up molerats so maybe she had similar plans for ghouls.
I might just be looking into the way their bodies are positioned a little too much, but the way Jason's body was kind of curled around Isabella's body makes me think she was either injured, or she died first and he held her until the ghouls overpowered him and killed him. Which is sad to think about, but this is Fallout.
That's a pretty cool coincidence, Abernathy is used in fallout 4 as well. Abernathy farm.
Here I was thinking fallout 3 was really barren but you just prove to me I didn’t explore enough in the city. I pretty much stayed on the outskirts and got the main story done, wow have I missed a lot.
You really are over the top on your narrative. You really are thorough in your episodes
You know, fallouts lore is actually quite depressing. It takes about 1,600 years just for half of radiation in something to decay, so, even if the world of fallout rebuilt and Re-established society, it would always be a cold, war torn wasteland. War always leaves a mark, and as stated, war, war never changes.
Oh! I think we know who the money-man is. A certain someone in the scrapyard you only get to meet if you have evil karma. A man who has plenty of "jobs" for you and others like you to take on.
Never found this in the game. The whole Isabella Proud thing is so much like Grizzly Man. If you haven't watched that documentary, you should.
Damn, I never knew about that that crater part with Isabella. I thought I had explored all of Takoma Park.
5:28 HE JUST WALKED UP TO THE MIRELURK THAT WAS CRAWLING AWAY AND JUST EXECUTION STYLE KILLED IT AND I DIED AT THIS POINT CUZ OF HOW MUCH IT REMINDED ME OF MOVIES
Im sure we can all agree feral Ghouls are very dangerous and utterly insane, we have people like that in our current society, they are put in padded rooms and left alone, I certainly wouldn't want to go play around with one.
I’ve played soccer against Takoma Park and they are all fast Mexicans thought I would just mention that. They’re also one of the best teams in Maryland
I got the best power armor in the game
It’s called Z97 power armor
And you get it in the takoma industrial vault
