    FALLOUT is a great game franchise, but some of the aspects we're supposed to assume about this post-apocalyptic society don't quite add up. It's 200 years after the Great War, and there are still robots and power armor suits. Wouldn't this high-tech stuff help give a boost for rebuilding society? It turns out that a return to civilization may not be physically or mentally possible in the aftermath of a Nuclear Fallout...Or is it?

    "So, you took all the time building this settlement from scratch?"
    "Yeah, I built a house, planted crops, and had a mutated 2 headed cow for pet."
    "But you didn't take a minute to move that skeleton from your doorstep?"

    There's a mod for Fallout 4 called PTSD Mental Health Management. Its really cool and fits Lore-wise with a survivor. At times, mid-game in the middle of nowhere (or even a crowded city) you can hear the same sound of the nuke dropping or Shaun crying. You have to manage SS's mental health in various ways, but it really adds immersion to a character with so much canon trauma. If your playing as Nate, a war vet, it would just make even more sense for him to have excess PTSD

      I'm not sure if I had Capgras but when I was younger, when my parents would act out of character, I used to think that they were actually secret agents that were assigned to me. I even thought that they didn't love me and that it was just a façade.
      I stopped believing that though when they kept on showing pictures of my sister and I shortly after we were born.

    • @efulmer8675
      @efulmer8675 3 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      A significant problem of a person suffering from Capgras or any kind of 'conspiracy' type thinking is that it can be defeated by rigorous application of logic or a reductio ad absurdum, except that it's really easy to defeat such a logic argument and it can be repeated as many times as necessary: The person trying to help is part of the conspiracy. Simple. That friend you've had all your life? Replaced. Mom? Dead. Dad? Replaced. Helpful smiling doctor prescribing you proven helpful drugs? Secret agent of the government. Oh, hey, that guy over there preaching the moon landing conspiracy that the government covered it all up? Yeah that sounds familiar, everyone is out to get me, I can trust him.
      Except, any reductio ad absurdum applied to any conspiracy larger than your friend group conspiring for your birthday surprise rapidly requires a tremendous number of people and at some point, a person who does not have this issue could apply Occam's Razor and say, "No, that's too ridiculous for me," which may not be possible or easy for a person suffering from Capgras. It's why arguing with a conspiracy theorist usually makes the problem worse.

    Just as a side note I like to think that (in my head anyway) they went BACK to black and white tv. Because they found that color tv took up too much energy or because people started liking a more vintage style. The same goes for how they dress. Or they found some weird health thing with color TV and new fashion clothes. I mean everything does come back around especially in fashion and design! I always liked that little touch.

    The Fallout universe doesn't have colour TV because that's where our timeline splits from Fallout's timeline where they put all their money and research into war, meaning things like the transistor and other amazing machines weren't invented meaning things would be completely differently such as colour TV.

Bethesda has gone out of their way to erase Interplay from the Fallout series. Probably because of Fallout PoS, I mean BoS (not Tactics). That said, some of the devs for the original Fallout worked on Fallout 3, and were already working for Bethesda when they bought the IP because they wanted "Oblivion with guns."

    The radiation from the bombs would have dissipated a LONG time before these games started. The background radiation in the Fallout series is largely concentrated in, relatively small pockets throughout the wasteland from leaking barrels of reactor waste, spent fuel, or damaged small scale reactors( that would have powered, well, damn near everything in this universe) melting down. And with many inhabitants having had access to, or having recovered, prewar technology, it stands to realize that that they could avoid the many of the more concentrated pockets of radiation. This is especially true of those that came from the vaults, as the vault dweller's Pip-Boys have inbuilt Geiger counters, they likely also have access to stores of anti-radiation drugs such as Rad-X and Radaway, and quite possibly radiation suits. Even some tribal societies of the wasteland have created homegrown anti-radiation drugs. And don't even get me started on the G.E.C.K.

    1) The whole idea of Scizophrenia being within almost all the current citizens of the wasteland is rediculous xD While perhaps the first generation of humans during when the bombs fell, would possibly have this, were now 200 years into the future, so if we say the "average" lifespan is 80 years due to time advancing and general reduction of the human life span, (also barring untimely death via raider, Brotherhood, Deathclaw, etc) Wed be 2-3 generations past the original bombs, and having both a background in the medical sciences, and a family in it aswell, Scizophrenia would NOT be caused by a quick wave of radiation hitting you as the elevator decended, it would take a much more prolonged exposure time to cause immediate damage to the brain. Scizophrenia is also a brain disorder that is developed due to a stress or malfunction in the brain, but it is not genetically passed on to their children just because they have it.
    2) The concerns that people have, Synths replacing them, death around every corner, etc, is not a cause of Scizophrenia or PTSD, If it was in todays world of *relative* safety, then it would be a concern. But the fears they face are legitimate concerns brought on by the world they reside in. The possibility of a deathclaw tearing you apart is a perfectly valid fear or presumption in that world, and people have adapted that as the new normal of the world.
    Thankyou to anyone who decided to read, I put a lot of 11:30 am thought into this c:

      Yeah, as someone who struggles with PTSD, felt like the portion of the video dealing with mental health missed the mark.
      Get that it is topical and controversial and gets views to capitalize on society's current fixation with mental health issues,
      but hinging the video on it felt like a weak theory compared to some of his more well-thought out videos of the past.

    • @JevvyMedia

      The T Machine I don't think he did any research at all, as shoddycast did a video on the glowing sea, and how the radiation from the bombs would pretty much dissipate within I think a month, I'll link it in a comment. It sucks because I remember when he did in-depth research on each episode, now it seems he just puts them out to get them out.

    I know this is probably different from this but I remember that when I was younger, and my parents would act weird sometimes I'd always think that they were just secret agents who weren't actually my parents but just assigned to me for some reason and I sometimes thought that they were just pretending to love me that went they went into the bathroom to change into suits or blazers there would be an apathetic expression on their face. It was really weird and I later stopped believing that because they kept on showing my sister and I pictures of when I we were born so I stopped believing that and was sure that they were my parents.

      Yeah but this is Matpat. Rather than giving credit to the creators of the concept he gives it to the current owners of the franchise. Besides to be fair Black Isle studios isn't around anymore and even if most of the original team is working at Obsidian if you give them credit then you will just confuse the hell out of anyone that Didn't know the series existed before Bethesda bought it. Though to be fair the Original concept was created for Wasteland, the game Black Isle made before Fallout which was published by EA. EA wouldn't give up the name so they changed it to Fallout and reinvented it.

    Bethesda has 8 letters. Fallout has 7. If you add 8 and 7 you get 15. There are 5 Game Theory videos in my recommended list. So, if you divide 15 by 5 you get three. There were three listed factions at 11:44. Don't you see it? Enclave is the government, so we don't add them to the next part. The other two factions, Brotherhood of Steel and the Railroad can be added together to make two, so 2-1=1. There is 3 points on a triangle, and 1 eye. Also, the *illuminati* is green, just like the trophy in MatPat's logo. We've been lied to by all the Fascist monarchs out there, the ones who were deceiving us the whole time. I--I d-don't really know how to say this sweetly. Minecraft was Keemstar the whole time. *BUUUUUTTTTTT THAT's JUST A THEORY. A GAME THEORY!*

But I know it was for the better, now you get to focus more on your family. But after all this I’ve just got to say it “That’s just a theory, a Game theory!
