For the kiddos who haven't played Fallout 2, this (not to mention Cass, herself) is a direct reference to John Cassidy - a potential FO2 follower who, between the two games, fathered Cass. Cassidy was one of the better (best, if you ask me) companions in the game, but his main drawback was he couldn't use chems more powerful than stimpacks because he had a weak heart. If you forced him to take any, he would have a heart attack and drop dead - an aversion/weakness that Cass inherited.
Not only do I not like New Vegas, I hated Cass most of all. For an alcoholic to judge someone's drug use is just laughable. And she sells for a pretty penny to the Silver Rush. Compared to Veronica? Boone? Arcade? Rex? Cass is just fodder.
@@NymbusCumulo928 Totally fair - that's what makes the Fallout games awesome (especially 1, 2, and NV) - *tons* of choice, and the opportunity to make the game your own, based on your decisions and preferences. ;D
@@NymbusCumulo928 truthfuly, Arcade is the most annoying of all the companions. I'm super released whenever I finally end his quest and he gtfo's to Freeside. I couldn't stand his wimpiness, insecure humour and daddy issues.
@@karolmalinowski9097 It's kinda funny how wimpy his character is, yet he's still the most op companion. I've seen him massacre Deathclaws at close range with his starting plasma defender.
@@TheFrogEnjoyer Cass: ya know *downs a bottle of whiskey* you shouldn't do drugs courier *downs a gallon whiskey* it's bad for your health *downs 5 gallons of pure ethanol*
That's Cass for ya, she only likes to poison herself slowly through alcohol addiction than instantly from a heart attack. She's still my favorite cougar in the Mojave.
I think her reasons for not liking it herself are valid as to why she doesn't like others doing it who knows but I actually like that she's that way. It makes her feel more human to me. She's hypocritical, she has specific likes and dislikes and is flawed just like the rest of us.
I agree she's a flawed and hypocritical character and I still love her and that's all thanks to the great writing and voice work. (also her dad was a badass)
I remember when I got this line. I had just gotten stomped out in a previous save by the Van Graffs, so I walked over to their bathroom, loaded up on anything and everything and then went into dialogue because I wasn't too familiar with the menu. "Are you fucking high right no-" " *PRIORITIZE, WOMAN!* " My courier no doubt bellowed this while probably twitching so hard it looked like he was trying to speed-run the Soviet national anthem in morse-code.
Couriers with 100% addiction resistance or Logans's loophole: “What are drugs? You talking 'bout the funky syrups I need to inject into myself so I don’t immediately get eviserated by deathclaws? Cause that shits fire, and never has harmed me.”
Cass saying "I can smell it from here" may also be a reference to Fallout 2- if you have both Cassidy and Lenny in your party, Cassidy will sometimes complain about how Lenny smells, as he is biased against ghouls
The fact she's trying to mount some sort of high horse like she doesn't spend all day drinking questionable liquor with absolute no idea nor care for what's in it or where it came from, is pretty fucking annoying to say the least
She says while her liver is floating in a whiskey marinade. Also Cass, some medical advice alcohol can cause cardiomyopathy a heart condition where the heart becomes too weak to effectively pump blood.
If I remember correctly, her dad is a potential companion in fallout 2 right? I think I remember someone saying that if you give him i think stimpaks,or was it super stimpaks? Hell maybe both, he dies right on the spot
Courier: *takes psycho and med x to fight a group of deathclaws in a 2v5 fight* Cass: are you fuck!ng high right now!? Courier: well, it was either that or die so...
@@willc3697 well, webmd says whiskey has high levels of polyphenals, of which are linked to lowering risk of heart disease (the polyphenals decrease LDL (bad) cholestrol and the fat in your blood while increasing HDL (good) cholestrol, which decrease artery blocks, which decreases risk of stroke). however, webmd also says that the benefits only happen in small doses and that heavy whiskey use (the kind cass is more used to) can actually increase heart disease, so...

@@blackshirts_and_breads nah you're pretty spot on basically a small cup of whiskey is good for cholesterol, similar to a glass of wine being good for indigestion
She hates chems because she has heart problems but at the same time she consumes a lot of Whiskey which can worsen your heart problems even more than the chems... O-0
That's a bit hypocritical, for Cass to pass judgement here; Considering she's also a addicted alcoholic (Who both probably reeks worse of piss, vomit and Ethanol at that)
Can't judge her about the whiskey though. She lost her father, her caravan and she couldn't abandon the habit as it was the only thing she could do at the outpost.

The violent alcoholic after you use a painkiller while being shot at: "My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined."

Cass guzzles whiskey like nobody’s business, but draws the line at hardline drugs.
As an Australian bushman once said, professionals have standards.
@@willc3697 Courierman, this is $10,000 whiskey
Imagine getting angry at someone for taking 1 hit of Psycho when you down 30 bottles of whiskey an hour
It almost parallels a certain 450 pound human horker we both know and his pepsi addiction. Although Cass is actually interesting unlike said "person"
@@TheFrogEnjoyer Human Horker!... That gave me a good laugh.
@@TurtleMan99 I was debating between horker and sload for Samuel "mah shit stinks" Richard-Jordan. Also thanks for the support as always

Cass: are you fucking high right now?
Courier 6: are you fucking drunk right now?
Cass: touche.
Pretty much how it would go
Vagrant: *mumbles* meh, probably both *hiccup followed by belch*
Someone should mod that in as a response
then they would just jump on each other
"The drugs are ruining today's youth" says old lady Cass on her 7th bottle of the day
As long as she's sharing I don't mind
I have a few really heavy drinkers in my family, I swear some of them look down on me for smoking weed.
@@Jade0603 What do you call a violent angry stoner?
Drunk.
"Are you fucking high right now?"
"Lady, we're so deep into this shit that Psycho only gets me back to 'normal.'"
By level 30 I'm at least 70% chems
Pretty hypocritical coming from an alcoholic
That's Cass for ya, she only likes to poison herself slowly through alcohol addiction than instantly from a heart attack. She's still my favorite cougar in the Mojave.
In her defense, not only is one of the chems literal brahmin turd but Pacer also has heart problems and it takes one psycho to give him a fatal heart

"Are you &@+*ing high right now?"

Good thing weed isn't a drug my dood

I didn't think about that you may very well be right
Might be written with Jet in mind, as it is literally Brahmin shit
Brilliant as always scuba Steve!
"A nice little relaxing smoke of crack."

That crack is really moreish!
A raging alcoholic is trying to tell me about heart problems and "putting junk in my system". 'kay
Nice Pimp-boy
I'm glad to see someone appreciates the drip. It's a MUST have in all my playthroughs.
She’s concerned about her heart problems, but not the incoming liver damage.
I think this outfit suits Cass almost as much as Joshua Graham.
Thanks for the support pimps ♥️
I.... Actually never knew that... Probably cuz my bloodstream is only sullied by stimpaks
Well Cass at least you don't know about vintage nukashine.
If this was Fallout 4 that would have been her companion quest
The fact she's trying to mount some sort of high horse like she doesn't spend all day drinking questionable liquor with absolute no idea nor care for what's in it or where it came from, is pretty fucking annoying to say the least
Cass: Oh my god I can't believe you do chems. That's so unhealthy.
Also Cass: *drinks 30 gallons of whisky for breakfast*
"Blah blah blah I can quit whenever I want. More importantly: who the fee-fie-foe-FUCK gave you my best light armor set?!"
Lol I usually wear it but I think it suits her well
"I'm so good at quitting, I quit seven times this week!"
If you aren't a homocidal cyborg fuelled by rage and chems with enough luck to defy fate itself, are you even really playing New Vegas?
Cass: Remember kids, don't do drugs! ( sips whiskey)
She says while her liver is floating in a whiskey marinade.
Also Cass, some medical advice alcohol can cause cardiomyopathy a heart condition where the heart becomes too weak to effectively pump blood.
John Cassidy didn't seem to care about me shoving 2 super stimpacks into him when he got attacked by frank Horrigan so take the God damn medx casd
very funny coming from the woman that got me addicted to whiskey
So a alcoholic is telling someone not to use drugs.... Ironic
If I remember correctly, her dad is a potential companion in fallout 2 right? I think I remember someone saying that if you give him i think stimpaks,or was it super stimpaks? Hell maybe both, he dies right on the spot
You're right, but it's Jet, Psycho, or Buffout
John Cassidy was a badass
@@TheFrogEnjoyer Well. He was certainly an ass anyway.
What a square.
I wish every fallout game had it's own version of Pimp Boy
does she know alcohol can cause circulatory/heart problems too?
Courier: *takes psycho and med x to fight a group of deathclaws in a 2v5 fight*
Cass: are you fuck!ng high right now!?
Courier: well, it was either that or die so...
Don't forget the turbo
The way she said "are you fucking high right now?" Made it sound so comedic i don't know why
If you've got a better idea for how to take out the deathclaw nest I'd LOVE to hear it Cass.
she's only mad because she can't partake
I mean wouldn't you be
is it the girl that has whisky in stead of blood?
Small details that don’t even matter to the whole story overall. But yet it’s there. Such small details. I love this game
Cass could smell the zaza.
The words rom and death should mean the same thing to you.
She can talk smack all she wants but we'll see who survives being hit by the Alpha Deathclaw in Very Hard mode
She'll survive she'll just get Ko'd
I'm sure if she drank enough she wouldn't even feel it
Glass houses, Cass.
“Chems are bad”
*makes pure ethanol out of a fission battery and drinks it all in one night*
Cass: "Ew how could you take chems!"
Also Cass: *Drinks like 5 bottles of whiskey a day*
ur a real one for playing new Vegas on the 360
That fit on Cass lmao
Kinda strange this popped up while on a stim binge 😬
Actually, they say that Whiskey is good for heart health, even if it does destroy your liver.
How so, may I ask?

Good thing I never use chems in my playthroughs I’ve maybe used medX 10 times out of my 20+ playthroughs
You don't know what your missing
Huh I didn’t know this interaction could happen, I guess it’s just cause I never use chems ever
Neat! I never had this dialogue. But she's kind of a party pooper. I'm going to watch Myron breaking down the invention of jet again.
Cass: "Are you high right now?!"
Courier: "Are you drink right now?!"
Cass: "..."
So, on one hand we have heart attack. On the other we have liver and kidney failure, plus risks of stomach cancer.
Hummmm....
*[injects Psycho]*
She hates chems because she has heart problems but at the same time she consumes a lot of Whiskey which can worsen your heart problems even more than the chems... O-0
Someone should make this same video, but start it by giving her a ton of whiskey so she’ll drain them all right there.
That hat fits her head so poorly, if only there was a mod to fix it
Bro I haven’t seen this before, I wonder if there’s other people that are effected by player being high
You'll just have to wait and see

IDK about the other companions but when you use stealth boy she asks you why are you invisible or smth
This outfit idea is great!
I'm glad you liked it. It's usually what I wear but I figured she suits it better
a genuine video of an alcoholic before weed became normal lol
She's really missing out.

@@TheFrogEnjoyer Special delivery for the White Glove Society.
Dunno why,but they gave me the best meals they've got.
Doesn't drinking mess with ur heart too?
Based Cass
typical alcoholic against drugs
Based Cass, hate the junkies
Women am I right? Alcoholic telling drug addict to stop taking drug
Women ☕ 😂
So because she isn't able to have chems so flames you for it? kinda selfish much lel
Can't judge her about the whiskey though. She lost her father, her caravan and she couldn't abandon the habit as it was the only thing she could do at the outpost.
Cass you're a hypocrite.
"I'm not an addict **sips whiskey** I can stop whenever **sips whiskey** I want"
wow
You dress up Cass in Joshua Graham's armor and fedora? What is wrong with you?
That's Daniel's cowboy hat I like the look of it
@@TheFrogEnjoyer I'm not trying to be jerk or anything like that, but, i bet Veronica's "potato sack" looks better on Cass than that.
What's the hat she's wearing?

That's right it's Daniels hat
Fallout 2 fans: Understandable, have a nice drink
New Vegas soyboys: sHe iS aN aLcOhOliC
