Remember when Lucy was mentioning she used to think the light in the sky was the actual sun, that she could even feel its heat? It really WAS the sun. Crazy.
That Moment Was So Well written and acted.
scenes like that. Are why i loved this season. ( Children see and remember things differently Then Adults do. and as she is re-remembering the moment on the Surface and Being in Shock. As all the Other Truth Bombs hit her! (No pun lol)
everything in her Life turned upside down in One Conversation, Was Great. And she did not have time to process the whole thing to even stop Maximus. From freeing Her Father.
Yes there's a lot of hints like that, like when they leave Vault 4 she says her father would never allow her to end the life of hundreds of people just to save him. Guess we have bad news about it...
BTW the code Hank gave was 101097 (16:16) that's also the date the first Fallout game came out, Oct 10, 1997.
This has 69 upvotes so I cannot break that, but nice spot.
Good catch!
@@Iymarra It's at 290+ upvotes so you can add yours now.
Can’t wait for Lucy, Ghoul and Dogmeat to develop a gambling addiction and learn how to fight a robot army
Or USE a Robot Army 😏
Or just use those Nukes again
@@brycebirkinbine4119 That’s whats so funny about some fans bitching about Shady Sands: If 76 has taught me anything, those same guys would blow Shady Sands sky high if given the chance 😜
@@stingerjohnny9951 Well not the NCR guys.
Remember when Lucy Said that if her father knew she destroyed an entire civilization to save him he'd be disappointed?
Yeah, no, he'd be proud
I just put something together yesterday: Cooper's ex-wife said that Vault-Tec should drop the bomb themselves. So, when the bombs dropped in episode 1, Cooper KNEW that it was Vault-Tec. Barb had convinced them to go through with it. That scene hits so different know.
The horror on his face is just extra devastating now 😢
I wonder if negotiations between vault tec and the other companies broke down. Barb would have made sure her family was sheltered before the bombs dropped.
@@mr.crumbles2557 also, Mr. House was caught off guard by one day, and didn't have enough time to have the platinum chip delivered
I think thats what they wanted to do but it didnt go through and eventually China was supposedly forced to launch the nukes as they lost territory.
Vault-Tec planned on dropping the bomb, but i wonder if they did.
If you know when the bomb is going to drop on that day would you have your daughters away from the protection of the vaults with her dad on that day ?
You can imagine how Maldeva survived all these years if you paid attention to what she said in the flashbacks. She is a rich woman and scientist. So it shouldn't be a problem for someone who is able to build a cold fusion reactor to build a cryochamber. You don't get a headache to be able to think so far.
In the end, Max and Lucy got what they wanted, but neither of them is happy with it. Lucy found her father and Max became a knight.
It's like Wilzig said in episode 2. Will you still want the same things when you've become a different animal entirely?
just like doc said in the beginnin'
"will you still want the same after you've turned into a different animal entirely?"
Here’s the thing though, what woke her up? Why wait like 2 centuries before waking up and meeting Lucy’s mother at Shady Sands?
@@dominator1914 Thats what i was thinking, why choose that period to come out of the chamber? My theory is she had people on the inside like the doctor, and maybe she was purposefully unfrozen at a time when they got cold fusion back, and then she just stayed. But who knows
@@ARJJ02she was rebuilding the city already. She was in the city and Rose and the children met her in the city Muldaver helped to build.
I don't think 31 is where Vault-Tec's executives are. Hank's title in the display on his cryo bed was "Executive Assistant". Bud's plan was to maintain Vault-Tec's *middle management* to oversee the vault projects while the actual executives slept waiting for their day to reclaim the surface.
I agree - Vault 31 is for his 'buds' and NOT for higher management. A lot of them were trainees. He wouldn't be telling HIS boss to go into that vault.
16:16 This access code is release date of first Fallout game - October 10th 1997
the amount of easter eggs throughout this show is incredible. Even more impressive is the way they wove them into the show like this one.
And it works worldwide for DD/MM/YYYY and MM/DD/YYYY
The Enclave actually has access to every vault and every terminal in those vaults. That’s where Michael Emerson’s character escaped from and why he knew so much about Lucy and Vault 33.
They have full access from their off shore oil rig they had set up originally
How and why do they have access to the terminals?
@@SLITHERIS because the enclave started as the people left from the US government before the Great War. They had access because the vaults being built were a government project.
@@quinnfuller6265 Oh ok makes sense, was that explained in the games? Because I don’t remember it being said in the show.
@@SLITHERIS yes only from the games
27:05 "Each one of them runs a different kind of social experiment"
One vault run fake pranks
One vault ran by FouseyTube
The way Lucy said Okey Dokey was so creepy and sad. Before it was always optimistic when she said it. Now, you can see happiness drained out of her.
Yeah, I felt bad for her, season 2 Lucy might have a whole different personality after everything that she just learned, it might take a toll of her in this dark world, I hope she doesn’t change optimistic ways about herself 🥺❤️
If she starts learning more science and making explosive gadgets, be afraid.
I agree, but at the very least every time she's said that has been her putting her mind to something, so even if the naivete is gone she still is determined to move forward which gives me hope for her
Y'all catch the Mr. House cameo? Wild :D
When??
@@TessaxMusic95 He's the Rob-Co representative during the Pre-War meeting.
My brother lost it when he saw him, even more so when we reached the end
@@TessaxMusic95 at the board meeting, the rep for Rob-Co.
its safe to assume Moldaver survived in one of those cryo tubes we saw in Vault 4 when Lucy was poking around. That would explain why Sandy Shores was where she helped build the NCR Capital, being close to the vault they had. This is probably also why those current residents still worshiped her as a savior type.
Ohhhhh yeah I could see that. She was a scientist after all
The meeting room of the executives is very reminscent of the war room in Dr. Strangelove. Clearly on purpose.
Something I noticed '' Betty'' from Vault 31 (Was the Young Receptionist in Vault -Tec who Interduces Cooper and ''Young Henry '' As he is Listening to The Vault Tec meeting) And Its Possible Lucy's Father Contacted the Conclave so they May have sent a Target List to the Brotherhood of steel to Destroy Shady sand's after Hank (Got his 2 Children back to the Vault that is)
And why Maximus would have seen the Knight as soon as the Carnage was over. He could not have been in that insulated Refrigerator for Long before he see's that Knight who ''Saved'' him . (I think in season 2 Max may find out His own cult has Destroyed His First Home?)
Just Like Lucy found out Her own Father Destroyed her Life. By his actions ( Not just 200 years ago but also as a child!) Very tragic and Great writing! Loved it.
You mean enclave? They're usually at war with the BoS, two different factions. But yeah I also thought, BoS knight there was very suspicious, and they are the kind of organisation that would nuke a town.
@@Mocsk The Brotherhood destroys technology deemed too dangerous or uncontrollable, like nuclear weapons or even Synths. Their whole goal is to prevent another nuclear apocalypse, so nuking an entire city would defeat that purpose.
That old man in the Brotherhood is definitely going to be one of the primary antagonists of S2.
"This is your Fart... aAh!" Oh man genuine reaction and feeling made me laugh hard! 21:57
LMAO I was just going to comment that, it was so genuine
what separates your reaction from others is the passion behind it. keep doing your thing omn1
Muldaver is still a mystery but either she bought her way in (she does mention at one point hypocrisy is worse if only your enemy gets to use it) , or because she developed the cold fusion tec vault tec made arrangements to freeze her
Enclave have been pitting everyone agaisnt each other is how this show will end
Maybe she made it to Boston ahd tricked her way in to vault 111.
The fact that most of the vaults were failures in the games while the surface always remained makes their choice even sadder, and all they can do is Denial, just like Hank said to Lucy."
this is the part that has me like, so invested in the heart of the story as a new fan that is gonna get into the lore because of the show. it truly shows how corporate greed and the idea of ultimate control is always lesser compared to the indomitable human spirit. in a way lucy embodies that too
And so it was that the actions of Lucy MacLean, A Child of Vault-Tec changed the wastelands like other vault dwellers before her. Only this time, a new limitless source of energy called Cold Fusion was created which could mean a new era of peace for some or conquest for others.
Vaults 31, 32 and 33: Despite the losses from the attack from raiders lead by former NCR Ranger, Lee Moldaver the residents of Vault 33 endured and some moved into Vault 32 to rebuild after discovering that the residents there have been dead for 2 years without explanations.
Norm: Norm trapped in vault 31 by Bud Askins had no choice but to enter his father's cryo pod to avoid dying from starvation or dehydration hoping for his sister would return to save him.
Siggi Wilzig and CX404 aka Dogmeat: With the death of Doctor Siggi Wilzig, his companion CX404 or Dogmeat as others call her has decided to accompany Lucy and forms an attachment as she did for Wilzig before her.
Filly: With the help of NCR and The Brotherhood of Steel, Filly rebuilds from the damages the fight between Maximus and The Ghoul and provides protection from any further incidents from raiders to cutthroat mercenaries.
Vault 4: Vault 4 and its residents continue on their daily lives, until the death of Lee Moldaver reaches them, and the vault goes into chaos with the death of their prophet. Those who survived, return to the surface and traveled to Sacramento, The Capital City of the New California Republic to restart their lives as they did in Shady Sands.
Thaddeaus: Thaddeus's transformation as a Ghoul could have made life hard for the former Squire, but instead, being found by the Followers of the Apocalypse was welcomed and became a combat medic to help those in need. Avoiding any sightings of the Brotherhood fearing of facing retaliation for desertion and possibly sharing Brotherhood secrets though has never committed to this day.
Dane: Despite recent events, Dane had become Squire of the newly promoted Knight Maximus where they both will both fight side by side against whatever threat comes next.
Lee Moldaver: Lee Moldaver who's lived for over 200 years remains a mystery. A secret she will take to her grave. But, not before achieving her goal of creating Cold Fusion as a limitless source of power in the hope will be the first step to everlasting peace.
Brotherhood of Steel: The Brotherhood despite suffering heavy losses, successfully captured the Griffith Observatory from Moldaver's raiders and have gained a foot hold in the LA County area with the Cold Fusion reactor powering the city.
Maximus: Though the hard work, meticulous luck and experience he had been through, Maximus has achieved the rank of Knight within the Brotherhood and decides to remain with them in the hope to take the first step to shape the Brotherhood into the ideal image that inspired him as a child long ago.
The Ghoul: Cooper Howard after 219 years had finally found a lead on the where abouts of his family by meeting Vault 33's former overseer, Henry "Hank" MacLean who before the war was Barbra's executive assistant who has fled the LA area to New Vegas for unknown reasons decides to follow him there.
Lucy: With the revelations of her mother and the destruction of Shady Sands by her father and how Vault-Tec caused the apocalypse 219 years ago understood that to make a real difference in the world is by bringing down Vault- Tec and their ally's once and for all and has decided to accompany Cooper Howard in tracking down her father as the first step. Lucy no longer goes by the name MacLean as her relationship with her father died with her mother and has started to adopt her mother's maiden name as her last name.
So ends the first chapter of The Child of Vault-Tec, but her story is far from over. Vegetius once said: If you want peace, prepare for war. For War... War Never Changes.
Got a feeling Betty's going into 31 to grab Norm. I think she wants to bring Norm into the fold. The looks she gives him, knowing what he's doing is like 'check out this lil vault dweller showing some balls'. Him wanting to kill the raiders clearly impressed the vault 31 dwellers and suddenly paid a lot of attention to him.
Moldaver was working with the enclave. So she might have been frozen with them
Whoever was looking down at Barb that got her to say her speech in that warroom is also a Enclave memeber.
I think the show is slowly building toward the Enclave pre war basucally behind everything.
Playing BOTH sides in the war and in the post war to build their facist utopia using the coporatuons and facrions againdt them
wait, she is enclave? but vault-tek work for enclave too?
Moldaver wasn't working with the Enclave. She was working with Wilzig, and while he is in the Enclave, it seems pretty clear he doesn't share their values. As to how she survived, if she cracked cold fusion, it's not much of a stretch that she could build her own cryo-chamber and safe place to ride out the bombs.
I don't see how Moldaver would've been with Enclave?
@@Tallenn i mean or she was just rich, and knew what vault-tec was planning so she made plans accordingly.
The truth was staring us right in the face, we just didn't realize it yet
I have watched 2 TV Series with Kyle MacLachlan and what's weird - in both of them he plays crazy father that wants "the best" (by his thinking) for his daughter
Agents of Shield I’m guessing?
He goes from wholesome dad to creepy AF so well.
@@thatonedmguy1586 yep
~~~~~SPOILERS FOR AGENTS OF SHIELD~~~~~
In SHIELD its the reverse though. At first he comes off as this crazed madman who needs to be stopped. Then, by the end, you see that he's a good dude at hart who just needs help to remember that. "Best day ever."
He was also in the series desperate housewives. The guy who killed his first wife and had a psycho son
The code is 10 10 97. That's when Fallout 1 came out.
I was wondering the significance of that.
Fucking Brilliant, My first intro to the series was Fallout 2. War Never Changes!
The composer is Ramin Djawadi, who also composed Westworld’s music, which is also incredibly beautiful. Watching this episode I actually got a hint of Westworld notes and that’s what led to me IMDb where it says he was also the composer for Game of Thrones, Iron Man, Pacific Rim, Eternals, Blade Trinity, and on and on.
I have no idea if you watched Westworld, but having seen it, I recognized that Jonathan Nolan has a bit of a signature way of storytelling. Take a mystery that goes deeper and deeper and deeper, and gets darker and darker, and he just gives you enough crumbs and small reveals that make you go “WTF?!” to pull you along to the larger ones that blow your mind. Can’t wait for S2!
I think a big redemption comes from Bud, the way he said he would go to sleep if he could, the kid going to be let go
Surprised he wouldn't have gone insane without sleep for so long.
Betty was the gal in the office the head of robco in the round table is supposedly mr house.
I think Moldeva was probably in vault 4 .Either as one of the scientists, or possibly as a test subject. That would explain her access to cryo chambers as well as Shady Sands.
She's literally a genius scientist that cracked cold fusion, building her own cryo pod would be child's play.
For those who haven’t played the games, this episode dropped two HUGE pieces of lore. Shady Sands and the NCR were a major location & faction in the first two games so for it to be destroyed is a *big* deal. And I believe this is the first *official* confirmation that Vault-Tec and its cabal were the ones who set off the nukes.
I love that they didn’t set out to adapt the games but instead created a new chapter that adds to the overall story.
Remember, they sayd they were willing to drop the bombs themselves, doesnt mean they droped them.
@@andrecontente6370 Maldaver, Hank and Ghoul proved otherwise. It's like you're not even paying attention to the show at all.
I actually don't think they dropped them themselves per se, but in their attempts to keep tensions artificially high between China and the US the bombs dropped earlier than planned. Spoilers below:
That would explain why the Platinum Chip arrived too late despite Mr House sitting in on the meetings and knowing when it would happen, along with why some Vaults never finished construction. Maybe it was planned for 2080, not 2077?
@@zeroskaterz92 lol go see the show and see what they say...
@@andrecontente6370 You're the one who didn't watch the show when Maldaver said it and Hank never disapproved anything she said. Even Cooper knew about everything that was happened because of Vault-Tec. Again wtf are you even on about?
Omni! Commenting before watching a reaction to say I'm hoping you're going to love it and absolutely be floored.
There were supposed to be several "Control" Vaults which didn't have any sort of experiments planned for them. Vaults 76 & 101 where 2 such vaults but it also seems that several vaults went totally out of control and didn't do what they were supposed to. I've always wondered what the purpose of the experiments where because there was no indication in the games how the results where being collected and managed, I even tried to make my own Fallout 3 mod with an Executive vault to answer that quest but in my mod the Vault Tech Execs never got into it so there was no control over the experiments.
Its been a while since I seen it but I thought in Fallout 4, at the start when you're in the vault just after you find a gun and have to look through the terminal to open the door, you can read a text on the terminal that says that experiment data would be sent to vault tec to be logged, but did not expand on it at all. (maybe there is another vault for these vault tec scientists to log experiment data exclusively?)
@@Cawmeravn Basically the Vaults have two experiences by two groups. Vault Tech was trying find the best way to survive while the Enclave was using them to test life in space for their planned spaceship to leave the planet.
I think Bud's car is a Messerschmitt KR 200. Coop's car is a 1954 Kaiser Darrin. Very cool cars.
Moldaver figured out cold fusion, I’m sure she had a cryo chamber of her own.
In the end credits of episode 5 there's a library card in Shady Sands elementary with the last entry in November 2276. Kind of a strong indication that the town was nuked shorty after. It's unlikely "the fall" was so sudden that for at least 4 years the school was completely abandoned, yet there was no indication of any serious problems in the capital from NCR in New Vegas (in fact Shady Sands is referenced several times as business as usual pretty much). Most likely it's just oversight. Or maybe it's not the original Shady Sands, because the original was almost directly east of San Francisco, not in LA. May be they resettled for some reason (in New Vegas there were indications of agriculture problems and desertification "in the west").
Also, remember that scene where Norm asks Betty what happened to his mother's pip-boy, and she says "I buried her myself, me and your father"? That woman is scary af on a rewatch.
Oh yeah, and the idea of vaults as social experiments for future use in post-apocalyptic world is from Fallout 2. It's not described in as much detail and straightforward as in the show, after all the character divulging this information does it in passing while rambling about how great it would be to kill everyone again and repopulate America (common theme in Fallout :) ). I would strongly suggest playing 1 and 2 at some point, focusing as much as possible on written lore and dialogue, both games are really good even with outdated interface and mechanics.
Mr. House, the representative of RobCo in the company meeting scene, was the leader of New Vegas. Since the show happens after the events of the game and New Vegas seems to be destroyed, I don't know why Hank would be going there, but there are a lot of possibilities, just not something we can know for sure right now.
Mr House went against Vault Tech by destroying the bombs meant for Las Vagus and took total control of the vaults he oversaw. Maybe Hank thinks Mr Houses computers may contain some vittle information he needs.
To reactivate House's robot army is my guess.
@@orvillekidder9901I... literally didn't even think of that, and it seems like the most obvious choice. Yeah, that seems more than plausible.
They’re gonna have to answer what actually happened in NV, which will be… difficult.
But I would like to see some of the other characters from that game as most would probably be still alive??
@@TimeCircleBlue We're getting Yes Man for sure, he's practically the mascot of that game, and would fit right in with all the other silliness they already put in the show.
The way everything came together in the end was perfect. And i even got choked up a little bit when Lucy started feeling betrayed and realizing her mother was the ghoul at the table. Its gonna be a long wait until season 2
The bombing of Shady Sands is petty as fuck, because it wasn't even because they were getting too powerful for Vault-Tec's liking, it was literally just Hank being a little bitch about how his wife left his ass and took the kids and they were happy without him.
Amazing show. Amazing finale. Never played Fallout and was completely entranced by the story.
I think Hank is going to see Mr House. House wanted to use a starship to colonize other planets, he may have been using the data from the vaults to help with that goal.
I have a feeling Hank is gonna be VERY disappointed if that's the case.
@@filthycasual8187 depends on what ending they go with as the canon for New Vegas I guess. Either that or House had a backup version of himself somewhere
The OG concept (old school Fallout player here) was originally about learning how society could survive living long-term in an enclosed society. The purpose of the data was to help prepare for a generation ship that could colonize another planet. That's murky enough in any official "canon" content, that it wasn't 100% sure (IIRC), so Bethesda can take it wherever they want.
There was a "Vault 0" in the game Fallout Tactics that was the central hub of the whole vault network. It would be the "special vault for management" that Barb referred to. Tactics isn't generally considered a fully canon game, so they might use the general concept in the current canon, but give it a new spin.
31 was for Bud's Buds who were junior level executives and assistants in the executive training program and part of Bud's specific 3 vault experiment. Barb would have been in a different vault if she was in the vault that would oversee all of the other vaults (Vault 0 if they keep that concept).
Yes, it's still an open question on how Muldaver survived. Given her access to technology, she could have had her own cryo chamber/facility.
Some of the vaults were "control vaults" designed to work exactly as advertised - keep some humans alive and safe, then open up a few decades later to rebuild.
4/18/24 Great episode. Pretty much tied up all the loose ends with good explanations about things. I like that because now when you go back and rewatch the season you'll pick up on all the clues and many things will have more significance now that they didn't have before. This show started off being really good and ended up being absolutely great. The last 3 episodes were all super strong. Very strong ending to the season. This episode is my second favorite and another 10/10. Looking forward to season 2. Hopefully they do a week to week release instead.
As someone with zero knowledge of this universe before watching the show, I'm surprised at just how invested I've become in these characters and everyone's backstories! I LOVE the dark humour, the music, the retro-futuristic style, and I am really impressed with the writing and acting throughout! Been a blast watching your reactions to this show and I can't wait for whatever S2 brings us! Great job, sir!
Omni, great watching you. This has been hype.
Here is what I assume happened.
The water was being siphoned off causing a famine.
We know one happened in 33 as well as 32.
31 people decided to sacrifice 32, by using them as food to keep 33 alive till they could get things going again.
So 33 did eat 32?
the problem with that is the year is 2296 and the famine was in 2277. Vault 32 died 2 years ago (2294). 2277 was the same year Rose (lucy's mom) escaped and took Lucy and her brother and then Hank nuked Shady Sands and got his kids back.
I was thinking the famine was a lie/cover up. but you are right on the water being syphoned, so there might have been a famine. would explain how some of the older dwellers who aren't 31 plants wouldn't question it. They may have faked a famine by withholding rations or whatever.. in order to cover up Rose's death.
I think the dwellers in 32 actually attacked and killed each other when their crops actually failed 2 years prior. maybe 33 began to syphon from 32 which overtaxed their water chip... not sure.
@@gravybate2283 i don't think so. 32 def looked like they did it themselves. the video on the tv talking about what mice do in isolation makes me think 32 was an experiment and 33 was the control vault.
@@TheEpicSpire Pretty sure 32s experiment was/is overpopulation. The video Norm and Chet finds mentions it about the rats (which House calls the vault-dwellers at the meeting), then at the meeting he also talks about a vault experimenting with overpopulation.
27:15 in Fallout 2 is when the bring up the Vault experiments for the first time, and it's similar, but specifically suggested the social data would be used for managing the population of a generation ship to colonize another planet.
I cannot wait for New Vegas in Season 2! I just hope they somewhat respect Obsidians Work and not totally ignore it. Seeing the City and Pre-War Robert House in the final episode made me go crazy with excitement.
Tod just did an interview saying new vegas is entirely Canon to the show. And the NCR is not done yet.
It looks like new vegas is gonna be fucked up and maybe the characters bring the power back with the cold fusion tech or something. It was established In the game that Nevada and California can trade power
I think they have a lot of love for NV, but they simply centered the first season around Fallout 3-76 iconography just because it'll attract the most viewers.
@@Sgt.chickens
Just stumbled across the IGN video where he explains that the Bomb dropped "just after" NV, thats good. Now the next question is which ending is going to be canon for the show? I can only assume that they try to find a middle way.
Wont go into spoilers down here however in case Omni should read these comments, since he intends to play NV. Yay! btw.
@lykan2 So far the show runners were told Not to officially cannonize any specific endings In the games. So this will either have to change for season 2. Or, they will just Hint at which ending It was and not show you explicitly. My guess is The house allways wins.
I always assumed that Dane did it to themselves, but it was neat to get that confirmed at last. But what I find more interesting, which I had a conversation o Facebook about after I had watched episode 4, was that I compared this show to Westworld. And that Lucy reminds me of Dolores there, and I even speculated about Lucy might end up killing father figures, since that is what Dolores did, and even Ella Purnell as Jinx did that basically in Arcane too.
I think my favourite Vault is Vault 43, the one with the Panther.
26:05 and with Maximus getting the title, he might have officially have some sway in the brotherhood. Infiltrate from within to try to influence it to become somehow better. And ESPECIALLY when they have infinite energy at their hands, Max will have to reign in the Brotherhood’s drunkenness in power as best as he could 🙁
Even by Brotherhood standards, this Elder Cleric has ideas WAY above his station and outside of the bounds the Brotherhood is supposed to stand for. I wonder if we might see a Brotherhood civil war at some point.
@@filthycasual8187 yea, Maximus and maybe also Dane will start a small rebellion together inside BOS to attempt to change the system. Also Thaddeus might join! Despite essentially defecting, he has as much reason to want to bring it down cuz some day a knight will gun him down for simply being a ghoul.
Plus Thaddeus knows his way with radio, so he just might communicate with Max to plan things out in secret 🤫
I wonder if Maximus gaining SOME power within the BoS will negatively influence him. He’s shown to be opportunistic and having a dark side of his own. It’d be interesting to see him become Lucy’s foil
True talk. The BOS will be his chains to keep him in the back of the story at least for season 2, next time we see him, I could see the BOS being steered by creepy grandpa in not the best direction, BUT the Knights themselves adopting Maximus’ ideology.
Loved the cliff hanger ending… at least that is assuming we get a season 2, if we don’t I’m going to hate it.
It’s already been renewed for season 2. Although Amazon has gone back on renewals before. But this show has so much buzz that I can’t see them doing that here.
Man,i have enjoyed all of your reactions on this channel but I dont think i have enjoyed any of them as much as this one. Thank you omn1.😊
You know what's funny? Shady Sands was founded by the dwellers of Vault 15 lol. Their lore is that they were mostly peaceful until a gang forced the main door off its hinges during a riot that left the Overseer dead. Since nobody else knew about the Vault's secret mission, and there was no way to close the door, the remaining Vault Dwellers left 15 and eventually founded Shady Sands. The rioters regrouped and formed the gang known as the Great Khans, who would continue to harass Shady Sands and the larger NCR as they grew and expanded, ultimately forcing them to continuously move east.
I think Lee was from vault 4 they knew her and they had cryo chambers in their vault
the city the NCR was in was ARROYO, if you pay attention to the buildings it matches the same one in the fallout 2 ending slides, and if you and further proof, the cold fusion generators is a devices that can only be found inside the The Garden of Eden creation kit and only place has one besides vault city that has a functioning G.E.C.K is ARROYO.
If nothing.. at least Hank raised Lucy to be a good person.
It's been theorized the data would have been used by the Enclave when building their starship to leave to another planet.
"Ain't that a Kick in the Head?"
I doubt Shady Sands was "bombed". It is built on top of a vault that had a Nuclear Reactor, and in Fallout 2 you have the option of blowing up the reactor and destroying Shady Sands, so I think Hank took that approach.
In one of many dark bits of foreshadowing, Betty tells Norm that she and Hank buried Rose themselves in an earlier episode when Norm is asking what happened to his mom's pip boy. Buried is one way of putting it...
Possible explanation for Moldaver. She was frozen as an experiment in Vault 4, but got out somehow. Makes sense with its proximity to Shady Sands.
Didn t really love the first one Fallout game 😷 but the 2nd one was really neat... I play it still today, time to time
There were absolutely some looks being given between Lucy's mother and Moldaver, too. Bet that really burned old Hank..
I got that feeling too.
The table is set for a dinner for 2 for Moldaver and the ghoul, and there is the way Moldaver describes Lucy's mother being kind loving Curious.
He was hot for sure, the hissy fit was probably epic 😅 I want to know how he managed it, what forces could he have mustered to back him up? Seems unlikely he could do it all on his own.
Kind of poetic Lucy was thinking of blowing up the observatory, much like Hank blew up Shady Sands. But that she wasn't raised that way. If only she knew, she probably would have blew the whole place up.
Yeah, agreed ☝️😥
So in perspective Hank did raise her right
@@Banana_John Yep. He raised her not to make the same choice he did
I think they mentioned life extension earlier in the show. They might have meant the cryochambers, but I think that there is more going on with that. I think Muldavia is a clue to that so that the ghouls family can still be alive and not asleep.
I also think you hit on the main value(to the show) of having different companies controlling different vaults. You can explain away almost any inconsistencies between vaults by simply saying different companies ran them. Especially since you won't know which ones were run by which company.
A dog and his boy. Imagine if the do the Caesar ending
32:57 I THINK YOU ARE RIGHT about this, coopers wife said she wanted to get them into a "good vault"
Considering Moldaver created Cold Fusion it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to assume she made her own Cryo Pod
She was wise to Vault Tex, certainly would make sense to be prepared
32:46 yep he’s going to Robert House’s domain, the founder of Rob-co. Robert preserved himself through technology like Vault-Tec and he’s ESPECIALLY dangerous. He utilized his own platform of missile launchers to fend off as many bombs when they first dropped and his securitron robot army also have their own personal rocket launchers built into them. 😅
House is a big bad in Fallout New Vegas, supposedly a couple years before the events of the show. So it might depend on the show in season 2 if House was defeated or not, whoever is the one to take after House (the courier the protagonist from FNV or a faction), or if it’s been left abandoned as it kinda looks like in this teaser.
Answering what happened in FNV will be tricky.
My thoughts:
House probably got his mail delivered and kept NV as its own thing protected by his Robos.
The Second Battle of Hoover Dam is another matter. Given that shady sands seems to have been destroyed in around the timeframe of fallout 3, I don’t want to see the NCR take 2 large L’s in quick succession.
HOWEVER, Caesars Legion would make FANTASTIC cannon fodder bad guys for cooper and Lucy.
That aside, I want them to run into the other factions as well (my secret hope is Joshua Graham cameo for Lucy to hear some uplifting words).
@@TimeCircleBlue I have 3 ideas for how they dealt with New Vegas.
At the end of Ep 8 you can see that New Vegas appears to abandoned and desolate and the wall is broken down. So I am assuming Mr. House will be dead and Caesar too since I doubt he lived 15 more years with brain cancer.
Case A: Caesars Legion took over the Mohave and New Vegas, but I doubt that Caesar would still be alive in 2296. This would go along with the NCRs downfall. They were already thin after the first Hoover Dam war, and loosing a 2nd war would be disastrous for them.
Case B: Mr. House or the Courier took over the Mohave, but between then and now either the Enclave or BoS wiped them out.
Case C: The Courier destroys Hoover Dam, and New Vegas is abandoned shortly thereafter. This would also make the matter of cold fusion power more important.
funny you call it Roomba on with a brain, cause with closed captions, it says it's name is Brain on a Roomba lol
Shady Sands was originally from people of Vault 15. It was Vault-tec project too.
The fact that back in the day Cooper didn’t want to shoot the “bad guy”.. but they made him do it.
The Ghoul could easily kill Henry... we WANT him to kill Henry.. but Cooper just grazes him purposely so we can get a vengeance quest in Season 2 with Cooper, Lucy and Dogmeat!
LOVED this show and your reactions ♥️
There were 6 control vaults that had no experiments run on them, and 76 was one of those control vaults I believe.
Each Vault has it's own programmer and therefore, it's own reclamation date. So the team for 76 had it pretty soon after the bombs dropped, and we don't know when people were supposed to be unfrozen in Fallout 4 because they were all killed before the reclamation date. Some vaults were never meant to open because the experiment was never to really reintroduce those inside to the world again. It really was a lottery unless you were actually Vault Tec, and even then.... not guaranteed.
of ALL the things i imagined hed run into in Vault 31, never in a billion years would Brain on a Roomba even cross my mind. I love fallout so much
glad to know omni has seen south park, "I'm not your buddy, guy"
the New Vegas reveal at the end literally made me jump out of my seat
The vaults experiments for the enclave has been a thing in the lore for a long time
Bud's car is called Flea a Corvega model. The guy representing Robco is Robert House New Vegas. And the brain on a roomba is Bud. Well in Fallout 1 Aradesh was the leader of Shady Sands. His daughter Tandy became a the self proclaimed benefactor of Shady Sands and would go on create the New California Republic through what the vault dweller from vault 13 in game 1 and the successor in Fallout 2. It would have been nice to see a live deathclaw in season 1 but I'm sure they didn't want to overload people new to the world for the same reason the Enclave wasn't mentioned much.
The dinky little car is a real thing, a Messerschmitt (yes, same company that made planes) KR201 - a class of car referred to in the UK as bubble cars (Heinkel and BMW did their own different designs too). In the UK and Europe they typically had 3 wheels but I think they might have had to have 4 in North America… Cooper is driving a US Kaiser Darrin.
talk to people that played the original games by black isle, The Vaults were a Test for how humans would act in isolation, the purpose was for Long range space travel until they could colonize a habitable planet.
There are currently 6 main Fallout games.
3 good ones, 3 bad ones...
rule of thumb: Bethesda hasn't made a good one yet.
So Fallout 1, Fallout 2 & Fallout: New Vegas are really good games ^^*
so excited for new vegas in season 2
Theory: The guy who was putting sand in the water purifier.... was he close enough that he could of been the cause of the water leak of the vault? He didnt know how it worked so maybe he figured sand = water?
you think a guy so dumb he's pouring sand into a water filter to try and get water might... somehow have tapped into a vault's water supply?
@ISavant not him exactly but could of been a relative who put it there in the first place. I mean, idiot savant is a perk too but, time wise, I don't think it was him but perhaps an older family member.
In the original Fallout games by Black Isle the purpose of the Vaults was not to conduct social experiments, but to run preparational tests. Vault-Tec and USA knew that the nuclear war destroying the Earth is imminent, and wanted to build a spaceship to colonize other planet. But they needed to test out different scenarious before the flight. Like what is the lifespan of the water chip, how will people change by radiation (solar as well). What would be the behaviour of the people in a closed space like a generational spaceship, or, in that case, the vault. And all the other problems to be fully prepared for the flight, as there would be no second chance. As that spaceship is the only and the last hope of humanity.
I personally think Hank McLean is going after Mr. House, the Rob Co CEO who was in that scene with Cooper's wife.
House was a major part of Fallout New Vegas and I'd highly recommend playing it because a lot of the info in Fallout New Vegas is definitely gonna come up in S2 of the show
War...War never changes
I don't think its weird how you had questions that were answered. I think that's good story telling for a series that's meant to have twists and intrigue.
And if it hadn't been mentioned this show takes place in 2296 which is almost 20yrs after fallout 4
I would be glad to watch you play Fallout 3, New Vegas, or Fallout 4. I believe 3 is my favorite because it has the most quests with moral dilemmas and the various outcomes. It also has random encounters in the world whereas in 4 most of the enemies are staged so you always know whatever will be there. I think it is more fun when it's random
"Woooaaaaauuuuuw!" LOL!
@22:30 I don't think her wife is in 31. As I understood it, 31 is full of junior managers, not those higher ups.
Fallout 1 and 2 are so hard to play without going through 100 pages of a PDF that originally was given in printed form when the games 1st released in the 90s. If they were to ever do a remake, Fallout 1 and 2 should take priority so it's playable in today's world. The learning curve is insane but the story of Shady Sands is in the beginning of the series. I didn't get as far in Fallout 3 before I stopped to play New Vegas and Fallout 4, but I feel like I'm going to put more time in Fallout 4 as I'm really digging it. Then I'll get into New Vegas for sure before season 2, and try to finish out Fallout 3 eventually. I'm jumping around with these on Steam, as it's my only gaming platform.
We know Vault Tech bought Moldaver's company when she was on the verge of cracking cold fusion, only to shelve it to keep the war going. Perhaps she played the game so she would be on the inside, not only to survive but to keep fighting to stop Vault Tech's plan. Giving the world cheap or free energy would help a lot with that.
I'm wondering if Vault Tech honored the agreement or built those vaults for the other tech companies in a way that they could seal them in and shut down the life support, possibly automatically.
in 76 a hidden objective (aka the player's mission) is to find and secure the nuclear launch facilities in the Appalachian region,
what if it was in preparation for scenarios like this?
I didn’t know anything about the game, and the show was amazing. The on ramp for someone with no knowledge was so easy. I am left with lots of questions though, that are likely answered by knowing the game.
20:20 - So why didn't he shot Maximus in the armour, at the weak spot in Episode 2 ?
But now he's such a expert in killing them in the dark.
Because he was clearly just having fun and fucking around, evident by his laughing that is absent in this fight
the enclave is behind vault-tec, the man in the shadows during the meeting is the leader of the enclave
Theory: Howard refused the 'thumbs up' in the photo because that happened AFTER he fou d out his wife suggested that vault tech drop the bomb themselves so it became more personal.
I mean, he says "considering the circumstances i'd rather not" because america's literally on the precipice of war at that point, and he's the face of vault-tec and doesn't particularly feel like giving a happy mascot photo when the end of the world is on everybody's mind.
33:00 I don't think vault 31 is where upper management is kept, they are Buds buds, potential future management. Hank was probably still just an assistant when the bombs hit and Betty appears to be the secretary. Bud is the only vault tec manager in 31-33 as far as we know, so the managers might be spread throughout the country running their own projects, or they are kept safe until things actually blow over, one off the projects succeed and it's safe to come out.
