I loved maximus taking charge during that bridge standoff. The way he shouted back "and neither do we" was so not his normal voice but i loved it. I dont know why. It gave me chills.
@@CedricBassman how is it? Its still war men and women are still dying and being killed. Its war. War never does change. How exactly is that different?
@@itzbp9949 You said those lines, meaning both statements. And in both conflicts they're not trying to save the World or anything. and yes, war did change over the course of History.
@@CedricBassman the Ukrainian soldiers are trying to save their country. Same thing. And war hasn't doesn't changes never will people still get shot the same way people still die the same way. The tactics may have changed but still war will never change it will always be people dying on each side
One of my favorite lines was when Lucy asks who Maximus thought lived in the vaults (after waking up from getting RadAway), he said "monsters" and she laughed it off :))
Maximus thought the bombs that made the wasteland were when his home was bombed so that’s why he didn’t fully understand Lucy’s question about the last 200 years
Yeah the time issue confused me until I realized they were each talking about two different bomb drop events. Lucy's thinking of the original bomb drops from the apocalypse. While Maximus is thinking of the bomb drop that ended shady sands long after the apocalypse when civilization was starting to regain its footing.
@@operative2136 well only shady sands was a bomb drop. The bombs at the start are ground detonations. Not bombs. It's explained in Fallout 1-2 that the first nukes were ground detonations not dropped from an aircraft or fired from a rocket
@@drunkpaulocostaIrl, the different types of detonations refer to what altitude the bombs are detonated at, not the method of delivery. Idk if the game lore from the first two games is more specific in the method of delivery, but if it just says "ground detonation," then they almost surely still mean it was a launched or dropped bomb, but that it was detonated on or near the ground, which is the most destructive type of burst and has the most potential for debris and fallout.
For the Maximus scene on why he can't get out of the Power Armor, generally the user can get it open from the inside but it only works if the armor is still powered. The squire knows that, took the fusion core that powered the armor and trap Maximus inside.
14:02 Shady Sands was featured in the original Fallout game as this tiny Adobe settlement by 2161 when the game takes place. It was founded by Dwellers of Vault 15 and by the events of Fallout 1 a few decades later you can meet Aradesh the leader of Shady Sands with his young daughter Tandi. It was then featured in Fallout 2 set in 2241 as the Capital to the NCR (New California Republic) the closest thing to the old world government in the wasteland. It went from a small settlement to a major city in around 60 years. By this time Tandi the daughter of Aradesh was the president of the NCR. Fallout New Vegas Set in 2281 doesn't feature the settlement as the games set around Vegas but it's mentioned by NCR civilians and troopers. In New Vegas you can find NCR Paper money with Aradesh and Tandi faces on the bills. New Vegas is just 15 years before the TV series so the fact the settlement is destroyed is shocking news to us Fallout fans. It also explains the lack of NCR presence so far in the series when we should be seeing settlements protected by soldiers and lawmen but instead California is pretty wild and lawless. Alot of Fallout fans, more so New Vegas fans are pretty upset with this reveal and see it as Bethesda wiping clean the old lore so they can replace it with their own. I personally don't actually mind this even as a fan of the NCR just need to see where the story ends before I can really judge. Also the sign says "First Capital of the NCR" but I can't recall there ever being another capital. The NCR did cover alot of cities and spread beyond California so maybe they formed a new capital city I'm not sure. Alot of this new lore details are pretty limited at the moment.
I was really enjoying the show, but I was afraid Todd Howard would use the show to demolish the old lore. Todd hates the old lore. This isn't the first time he demonstrates this. Bethesda is creatively bankrupt, just look at Starfield. The next Fallout game will be an abomination, if there is one after the next Elder Scrolls (sorry for my english).
Believe it or not double check the NCR Citizen Test in New Vegas the guy actually states "What's the original name of the NCR capital" which alludes to Shady Sands not being the Capital anymore it's such a small overlooked detail.
Carefull spoilers : And there is something much worse than wiping out the NCR, did you see the date on the board at school (next episode), it's said that Shady Sands was destroyed in 2277, 4 years before Fallout New Vegas, so the NCR cannot have been in New Vegas, so Fallout New Vegas doesn't exist in this story maybe??? This could be explained by the fact that New Vegas is an Obsidian game not a Bethesda game and the show is a collaboration with Bethesda, who knows maybe they can't involve Fallout New Vegas for copyright reasons. Or maybe just an idiot wrote the date wrong on the board, props makers are probably not Fallout lore experts.
It makes sense to release them all together just like Amazon did, It they wait 1 per week like normal then The "Excitement" for the show might end since most people will have finished it by then and Lost Hype
@@Captianmex1C0 It's not good either way. Sure, when it's a weekly release, you lose a bit of the excitement for the next episode, but when it's all out, people binge it in a day and in a months time nobody is talking about the show anymore. Not until a next season pops up anyway. Both have drawbacks
23:36 Shady Sands getting blown up is a separate occasion of bombs being dropped. As of course not all the bombs were fired when the original war that ended the war happened. Only Ghouls have extended life spans.
When Maximus said the bombs fell when he was a kid he was talking about that crater in Shady Sands (which is a place from the first games) not the actual War. Shady Sands was recent, and Lucy only knows about things that happened before the War.
22:25 I think the mum is the hero / good guy. Remember their dad is from vault 31 and he was overseer. In the games, overseers got direct contact from vault-tech. Sometimes they were in on what ever crazyness was happening sometimes when they realised vault-tech was messing with people overseers revolted. Also thanks for posting these out so quickly! enjoying the show and your reactions!
This is just a reminder to fellow Fallout fans while Shady Sands being a crater is sad it isn't massively conflicting the NCR citizen test in New Vegas ask you "What's the name of the original capital of the NCR" alluding to a new capital and we don't know how Vault Tec blew it up I personally believe that the Brotherhood blowing the NCR Gold Supply was actually just A LOT FUCKING BIGGER then we thought as most of us likely thought of a single building going up in flames as opposed to an entire town but it'd make sense especially with us seeing the BoS when Maximus is recounting his tale. The only reason I don't mind this is because the show's setting to me feels more similar to the original Fallouts with how scarce everything seems to be between population centres.
But it leaves a question as to where the NCR is because this is in California to you would think they would have done or any real presence here so far besides shady sands which should probably be around the heartland of NCR territory we have seen nothing regarding the NCR no flag in filly found on the ground. No one wearing scavenged NCR armor
@@tylerrussell9926 You can see NCR Flags and even portraits of Kimball in the show so there are traces but it seems they've updated their standard military uniform from the one we saw in NV.
@@tylerrussell9926 It probably dissolved, its "head" cut off the various member-settlements probably ended up caring each for their own safety, and they had to without he power of the largst most advanced city and military on their side any longer
13:55 Great moment for that reaction. Shady Sands is generally the first community you find after leaving the Vault in the first game. At that time it's just a little backwater in the desert.
Yep! Shady Sands eventually joined together with "The Hub" after Fallout 1's events, and by the time Fallout 2 occurs, NCR is a powerful force all over Southern and Northern California.
Hoe about letting things the show explains explain it for them? Like fugg off with your coming to spoil something explained later. Ya prewatched nothing
I still can't believe it. They trully made one of the best show out there and it have to be a Fallout live action adaptation. Didn't expect it to be so damn good😂🎉❤ I'm gonna play Fallout 4 and New Vegas again after this😅
Maximus can get out of the suit by himself, he did it in Filly when it needed fixing. The only reason he couldn't do it this time was because Thaddeus removed the suit"s power core.😊
But that's a crazy design. You'd want a mechanical release so a power issue isn't a death sentence. It's fallout tho so crazy, Slightly bad tech is on brand lol
@westfinest20 if I wire breaks, if it just rans out of juice, if the battery took a bad gun shot and broke . If someone killed and looted a key from someone. Good design would be to have a mechanical failsave because you just can't know..... but like I said, it's fallout, so bad ideas done well is the name of the game. A plot point of the show later one is the suits not being designed well.
It's one of the few differences to the game dynamic, driving a plot point in the TV show. In the game when you sneak up behind someone in power armour and you rip out the core, the armour just pops right open.
@@SugerFreeJazz You can get out of a depowered suit...but you need to know how. Training is the one thing lacking with Maximus. The Ghoul allready mentioned it during their confrontation.
I believe maximus didnt know how to emergency eject because he was never trained how to use power armor. He did know how to open it as he was rold how to when titus was begging to be let out.
An important aspect of the games is there's a lot of abandoned places. And one of the most intriguing things to do is figuring out what happened and the game does a great job with visual story telling and providing context clues in the logs in the computers. And I think this show has done a really good job at capturing that aspect of the game and the mysteries.
If you Look back at Episode 1 Lucy was Trained in Jujutsu , Fencing ,Engineering ,Target Practice (By her Father along with her Friend the Blonde who had the Baby) So my Guess up to this episode is the 31 Vault May Have been Made up of Ex-Military (As Polite and Naive as Lucy can be She has More Military Skills than Many of the Squiers seem to have. example- When she was with the Ghoul when it can to survival, she Never stopped Fighting to stay alive. ( So she Called all of her Military training in the first episode as non-combat skill's yet they all were) ... Max ,He has Less Historical Knowledge Than Lucy. But Max Reads top sider's Much better, Know's the Waste land. Max is a Brawler who can Also take a beating and get back up. So the 2 Work well together
The power armor can open from thie inside but it needs power. Without it all the mechanisms shutdown even the emergency release. They dont come with emergency back up power because they need a special key to take the source out and those are pure fusion energy.
@crimsonghoul8983 fusion core but yeah. This universe has advanced nuclear energy to the point of portable fusion cores that last for centuries. They are extremely valuable.
@crimsonghoul8983 you'd think that, but fusion cores or equivalents powered basically everything. Robots, cars, computers it was the new oil. Even weapons and other tech, they have something called a mini nuke. A portable nuke that's the height of a basketball.
My take is that Last of Us was more an adaption of the STORY from a video game, and Fallout is more of an adaptation of the game itself. I.e., the TLOU show didn't feel at all like a video game story, it just felt like a story that just happened to have been told in a video game. Does that make sense?
Really looking forward to you guys review of the next episode because that's the one about Vault 4 run by Jerry Smith. Is a very interesting episode needless to say.
You guys should watch Yellowjackets! Ella Purnell is also in the 1st season of that show and equally as intense. Basically it’s about a soccer team whose plane crashes in the Canadian wilderness on the way to a tournament and the survivors must survive in the wilderness for 19 months before they’re rescued. It’s dark, intense and mysterious!
Already googled what the trivault (vaults 31, 32, and 33) were about Slight spoilers for those that haven’t played most of the games From what I know offhand and the games: Vault 3: FNV (New Vegas), control vault Vault 13: Fallout 1 Vault 31, 32, 33: Series, tri-vault system Vault 68: 999 men, 1 woman Vault 69: exact opposite Vault 76: F76, control vault, (aka a placebo vault) Vault 87: highly radioactive due to a few bomb dropping directly on it (F3, Capital Wasteland, formerly D.C.) Vault 101: F3, designed to have its door to not open (opposite is true, Capital Wasteland) Vault 111: F4, designed as a giant cryogenic storage facility) Vault 112: Used a Matrix-like simulator on its dwellers (Capital Wasteland)
There is a way to get out of the armor from the inside, it's just that the mechanism that opens the power armor is powered by the fusion core so you can only open an unpowered armor from the outside
Betty is getting scary with that side eye she gave toward the end. You go Leslie Uggams! I have a weird theory. What if Betty is either Coop’s wife or daughter?
In the game, the power armor will open from the inside when the fusion core is depleted. If it's removed when the armor is occupied, it should also open from the inside.
I think Jaby Koay is talking about the Time Machine cause it’s the same premise, the people who lived underground evolution into blind human cannibals.
Is it a setup of many 31 moving to 33 and ignoring 32? Colonizing vaults one at a time to reduce population? As the grim video shows at 32 early on regarding the over-populated problem showing rats running through the maze. This show is so loveable on many levels with tons of questions unanswered.
Remember maximus climbed out of s fridge he was hiding in. Its possible maximus thinks the bomb that deatroyed his town is the bomb lucy is talking about. Maximus would have no concept of a world before the great war which was the bombs we saw episode 1.
I "allow" myself just one episode per week from now on. No binge watching .. no no no. I want to take the time to think about the episodes I watched and come up with my own theories about what is going on. I miss the time when episodes were released weekly instead of all at once. But I admit, it is difficult to resist 😳
I believe the power armor issue is solved because if their squire dies they just send another and another and so on. And if they can´t make a squire reach them (for whatever reason), they had a radio in the suit to ask for reinforcements. But Maximus broke it.
If you don't mind me asking, what is your ethnicities? My wife is from the Philippines and guessed your also Filipino. That aside, I love you guys! I hadn't realized I have been subbed for months. YT didn't even tell me. :(
When I felt Maximus was going to tell Thaddeus who he was in the suit I was constantly saying "Don't do it" because he should wait until they get back to base with the head. Even with the moment with Thaddeus in Episode 3 I still didn't think it was a good idea to trust him yet. I'd keep my mouth shut until I was pretty sure I'm not going to end up dead. Also he shouldn't have lied to Lucy about his name being Titus and that mostly will come back to bite him in the but from being dishonest. She's someone that Maximus could probably trust most out of everyone he's dealt with so far. There's definitely something sinister going on with the vault societies, specifically the vault that overseers are promoted from. My guess is that all Vaults 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28 and 31 are the vaults that manipulate their connected vaults in sets of three. I don't think that they have said how many vaults were built so there could be vaults 34 to 100. 98 to 100 would be the last 3 vaults. I love episodes like this that are information giving and mystery builders because they help set up the next stage of the story. I wish more shows did this instead of always throwing big moments episodes back to back constantly to appease the short attention span people. I miss the slow burn style because they actually make you use your brain to figure stuff out. I love stuff like that. Enjoyed the reaction 👍👍✌ out.
24:50 The 100 has a very similar premise. Great show if you can make it past the idiotic teen drama beginnings (Mostly the first season, especially the first half). It changes its tone quite dramatically and gets pretty dark. Imo a must have show if you are interested in post apocalyptic societies.
That's so cool that the Fiends were added to the Fallout tv series i was not expecting that oh yeah for anyone who might not know the Fiends are in Fallout New Vegas and they are very similar to the Raiders oh yeah and Jaby and Achara the life span of Ghouls and Feral Ghouls is increased due to their mutations
The woman on the bridge was totally a nod to character Cricket, right Fallout players? Even though she's not a fiend, it totally looked like her, even the clothes.
I know you're probably well ahead in watching, but I just wanted to say that they did a good job of answering the questions that needed answering in season one, while leaving some (like "the enclave") open for a followup season.
Damn i cant wait for more NCR lore. They are the coolest faction in fallout. You got to really see who they were in new vegas. The NCR is the best chance the people of America have at rebuilding. I really gope season 2 gives us some Brotherhood vs NCR story.
I'm sad Thad and Max couldn't get along after he reveals the truth. I rather like that little goofball Thaddeus When you say "this one wasn't as good as the last one" you are really just pointing out that Goggins was absent in this episode. He steals the show.
I didn't consider that being the reason. While I'm inclined to agree that had absence certainly had an effect, I still think it was other things as well. But overall still really nice episode.
Im kinda scared to learn the secret of each of the interconnected vaults since each of them are evil or at least sneaky in their own rights also vault tec is evil to the core
"He's too trusting" Why? Thadeus didn't do anything to him before Maximus tried to kill him. It kinda seemed like he was too afraid of the Brotherhood to help him, but IMO it was way to early to just try and murder the dude.
I loved maximus taking charge during that bridge standoff. The way he shouted back "and neither do we" was so not his normal voice but i loved it. I dont know why. It gave me chills.
He definitely seems at his best when there are no Brotherhood members around to impress.
The line “Everyone wants to save the world, they just disagree on how” is honestly as relevant as “War, war never changes”.

example- When she was with the Ghoul when it can to survival, she Never stopped Fighting to stay alive. ( So she Called all of her Military training in the first episode as non-combat skill's yet they all were) ...
Max ,He has Less Historical Knowledge Than Lucy. But Max Reads top sider's Much better, Know's the Waste land.
Max is a Brawler who can Also take a beating and get back up. So the 2 Work well together
The power armor can open from thie inside but it needs power. Without it all the mechanisms shutdown even the emergency release. They dont come with emergency back up power because they need a special key to take the source out and those are pure fusion energy.
Wait..that thing is running on a Fusion reactor?
@crimsonghoul8983 fusion core but yeah. This universe has advanced nuclear energy to the point of portable fusion cores that last for centuries. They are extremely valuable.
@@nandotnt5678 For a world that's dealing with a nuclear fallout, you would think that people would refrain from using nuclear reactors
@crimsonghoul8983 you'd think that, but fusion cores or equivalents powered basically everything. Robots, cars, computers it was the new oil. Even weapons and other tech, they have something called a mini nuke. A portable nuke that's the height of a basketball.
this has become the best video game adaptation, better then the last of us in my opinion,they did an amazing job with this show.
My take is that Last of Us was more an adaption of the STORY from a video game, and Fallout is more of an adaptation of the game itself. I.e., the TLOU show didn't feel at all like a video game story, it just felt like a story that just happened to have been told in a video game. Does that make sense?
Shady Sands was a major location in Fallout 1 and Fallout 2.
Has anyone mentioned that Betty is also known, in another life, as "Blind Al".
Thank you for this reaction video!
It's amazing how much mileage they got out of Maximus' three minute origin reel.
Really looking forward to you guys review of the next episode because that's the one about Vault 4 run by Jerry Smith. Is a very interesting episode needless to say.
Jaby after talking about the book about the moon, i think they would have so much fun reacting to the "100" show
References to the games? Oh yeah. Theres like 1 every minute, thats why this show is so damn great.
I feel like maximus could have explained that better or just waited a bit more. He shouldn’t have attacked him right away.
Yeah that was very impulsive
Maximus is what happens when you don't add any points to your intelligence score.
After seeing the series we realize her comment about how she felt the heat of the sun was actually real
You guys should watch Yellowjackets! Ella Purnell is also in the 1st season of that show and equally as intense. Basically it’s about a soccer team whose plane crashes in the Canadian wilderness on the way to a tournament and the survivors must survive in the wilderness for 19 months before they’re rescued. It’s dark, intense and mysterious!
You can open the armor from inside - Maximum has done it before - but he was powered down, so his controls stopped working.
Already googled what the trivault (vaults 31, 32, and 33) were about
Slight spoilers for those that haven’t played most of the games
From what I know offhand and the games:
Vault 3: FNV (New Vegas), control vault
Vault 13: Fallout 1
Vault 31, 32, 33: Series, tri-vault system
Vault 68: 999 men, 1 woman
Vault 69: exact opposite
Vault 76: F76, control vault, (aka a placebo vault)
Vault 87: highly radioactive due to a few bomb dropping directly on it (F3, Capital Wasteland, formerly D.C.)
Vault 101: F3, designed to have its door to not open (opposite is true, Capital Wasteland)
Vault 111: F4, designed as a giant cryogenic storage facility)
Vault 112: Used a Matrix-like simulator on its dwellers (Capital Wasteland)
Shady Sands if the first settlement you go to in Fallout 1 game.
It's just like the games; people don't always make the right choice.
CX-404 is the most chill character. Just follows whoever has the head, has an interest in the head or just whoever. lol
There is a way to get out of the armor from the inside, it's just that the mechanism that opens the power armor is powered by the fusion core so you can only open an unpowered armor from the outside
17:01 John McLean……. She is LITERALLY named Lucy McLean! 🤯
Betty is getting scary with that side eye she gave toward the end. You go Leslie Uggams!
I have a weird theory. What if Betty is either Coop’s wife or daughter?
Close to correct
In the game, the power armor will open from the inside when the fusion core is depleted. If it's removed when the armor is occupied, it should also open from the inside.
I think Jaby Koay is talking about the Time Machine cause it’s the same premise, the people who lived underground evolution into blind human cannibals.
I like how Lucy seems to always fails her speech checks
Dont forget Walton Goggins once said "ass jerky don't make itself"
The lady that plays Betty is from Deadpool.
The line from Steph about the mash potatoes are better in vault 31, wow!
Lucy keeps utilising her soeech skill. I would too every chance I get. That’s what I love about her character.🙂
Is it a setup of many 31 moving to 33 and ignoring 32? Colonizing vaults one at a time to reduce population? As the grim video shows at 32 early on regarding the over-populated problem showing rats running through the maze. This show is so loveable on many levels with tons of questions unanswered.
Counting down the 2nds for the next video!
Just finished and damn such a good show
What do the vault dwellers do after finding people from the surface? What a great question for this season!
Remember maximus climbed out of s fridge he was hiding in. Its possible maximus thinks the bomb that deatroyed his town is the bomb lucy is talking about.
Maximus would have no concept of a world before the great war which was the bombs we saw episode 1.
Shady sands was the capital of the new California republic,but it's destruction was between fallout 4 and this series.
If vault 31 was feeding on the humans from vault 32, there wouldn't have been so many corpses left to rot.
Lucy's brother reminds me of Seth Green with a sprinkling of Brad Paisley.
I "allow" myself just one episode per week from now on. No binge watching .. no no no. I want to take the time to think about the episodes I watched and come up with my own theories about what is going on. I miss the time when episodes were released weekly instead of all at once. But I admit, it is difficult to resist 😳
I believe the power armor issue is solved because if their squire dies they just send another and another and so on. And if they can´t make a squire reach them (for whatever reason), they had a radio in the suit to ask for reinforcements. But Maximus broke it.
If you don't mind me asking, what is your ethnicities? My wife is from the Philippines and guessed your also Filipino. That aside, I love you guys! I hadn't realized I have been subbed for months. YT didn't even tell me. :(
When I felt Maximus was going to tell Thaddeus who he was in the suit I was constantly saying "Don't do it" because he should wait until they get back to base with the head. Even with the moment with Thaddeus in Episode 3 I still didn't think it was a good idea to trust him yet. I'd keep my mouth shut until I was pretty sure I'm not going to end up dead.
Also he shouldn't have lied to Lucy about his name being Titus and that mostly will come back to bite him in the but from being dishonest. She's someone that Maximus could probably trust most out of everyone he's dealt with so far.
There's definitely something sinister going on with the vault societies, specifically the vault that overseers are promoted from. My guess is that all Vaults 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28 and 31 are the vaults that manipulate their connected vaults in sets of three. I don't think that they have said how many vaults were built so there could be vaults 34 to 100. 98 to 100 would be the last 3 vaults.
I love episodes like this that are information giving and mystery builders because they help set up the next stage of the story. I wish more shows did this instead of always throwing big moments episodes back to back constantly to appease the short attention span people. I miss the slow burn style because they actually make you use your brain to figure stuff out. I love stuff like that.
Enjoyed the reaction 👍👍✌ out.
24:50 The 100 has a very similar premise. Great show if you can make it past the idiotic teen drama beginnings (Mostly the first season, especially the first half). It changes its tone quite dramatically and gets pretty dark. Imo a must have show if you are interested in post apocalyptic societies.
That's so cool that the Fiends were added to the Fallout tv series i was not expecting that oh yeah for anyone who might not know the Fiends are in Fallout New Vegas and they are very similar to the Raiders oh yeah and Jaby and Achara the life span of Ghouls and Feral Ghouls is increased due to their mutations
The woman on the bridge was totally a nod to character Cricket, right Fallout players? Even though she's not a fiend, it totally looked like her, even the clothes.
Betty is the type of character I use Vats on as soon as the conversation ends
12:53 I make a really good lemon jello poke-cake
Im watching this reaction while playing Fallout Shelter haha
I know you're probably well ahead in watching, but I just wanted to say that they did a good job of answering the questions that needed answering in season one, while leaving some (like "the enclave") open for a followup season.
Yeah but now we have to wait at least a year for the next season.
"I know is...we're leaving"
Event Horizon, anyone?
Achara: Is it rigged, or are they just manipulating everyone?
Can someone please make me a campaign shirt with that phrase?
Damn i cant wait for more NCR lore. They are the coolest faction in fallout. You got to really see who they were in new vegas.
The NCR is the best chance the people of America have at rebuilding. I really gope season 2 gives us some Brotherhood vs NCR story.
great video
I'm sad Thad and Max couldn't get along after he reveals the truth. I rather like that little goofball Thaddeus
When you say "this one wasn't as good as the last one" you are really just pointing out that Goggins was absent in this episode. He steals the show.
I didn't consider that being the reason. While I'm inclined to agree that had absence certainly had an effect, I still think it was other things as well. But overall still really nice episode.
For the record you don't just turn to ghouls. You die from radiation poisoning. That is why radaway is important in the game.
Of all the reactions to this show I have yet to see one that has realized Betty is “Blind Al” from Deadpool! 😶🌫️👍🏻
5:38 Ha ha ha potato tomato potato tomato...
SPOILERS
8:31 is some great foreshadowing.
Next one is great.
I’ll whisper it quietly but Lucy and Maximus remind me of Finn and Rey
Best describes fallout
Mad Max vs Mr Roger's
the bombs dropped when i was a kid line, is important later.
Thaddeus removed the Power Core thats why he couldn’t get out on his own.
Guess they treating irl like the video game because so many people have super human pain tolerance
Seeing Maximus and Lucy together just makes me wish we would’ve gotten more of Rey and Finn in the Star Wars movies.
I felt like they made Finn like the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Super cheesy/cringe and how he would react to situations was fake.
Im kinda scared to learn the secret of each of the interconnected vaults since each of them are evil or at least sneaky in their own rights also vault tec is evil to the core
"He's too trusting"
Why? Thadeus didn't do anything to him before Maximus tried to kill him. It kinda seemed like he was too afraid of the Brotherhood to help him, but IMO it was way to early to just try and murder the dude.
You don't need a Squire to open a power armor in the game
I felt so claustrophobic as if i was stuck in that suit.
Why do people like jello cake instead of apple pie? It's because you can't grow apples in a vault. Look at what Lucy is holding in her memory.
