      I wasn't that low a level but I was still massively under-powered for this discovery. I had modded in weapons and had a hunting rifle when I found this, and by the time I'd got to the raiders I'd gone through most of my ammunition just to get the queen down. And even that was done with tons of stealth attacks just for the bonus damage.

      The only issue I see here is that paint would flake off in actual flakes, not clean lines, where as rolled sheets of gold leaf would be more likely to come off in a similar way that is seen in game

    • @Bimgus_The_Great
      @Bimgus_The_Great 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I was thinking the gold leaf flaked off revealing the dark grey paint underneath. Mostly because the flaking was at the topmost part of the dome. It wouldn’t make sense for the paint at the bottom to come off first.

    I stumbled into the State House at around level twelve. That Mirelurk Queen is a *mother* of a fight at that level. Ended it's completely out of stimpacks and ammo. Then had to take down the raider in PA with the bottlecap mine found in the building and an automatic pipe pistol taken off one of the raiders.
    Stumbled out, fast traveled back to Sanctuary, and built shacks until level 15.

    The office with the pencils reminds of things I've seen from Saw and Dexter, but I haven't seen all of either, so maybe I'm projecting. I've definitely seen the pencil/pen thing a few times. It's usually used to indicate OCD-type personality. The Jet and the bones is what brings me back to Saw. 1 scene from 3(?) had someone manacled to a desk and had to cut their foot off to get out.

      Personally, Lonesome Road has my favorite story and narrative while Old World Blues had my favorite setting and atmosphere. Either way, New Vegas felt like the REAL sequel to Fallout 2 and is my favorite Fallout game to come out after being purchased by Bethesda. Fallout 2, however, will ALWAYS remain my favorite game in the franchise.

      Well I mean that’s because it is, Fallout 3 takes place on the other side of America, you know, no where near the events of Fallout 1 and 2? Why do you think people barley know who the brotherhood or Enclave are in D.C or the Commonwealth?

    Ox, I'm a recent subscriber (as of yesterday) and I absolutely love your content. I've recommended your videos to friends looking to get into the Fallout series as a way to introduce them to the world Bethesda created, and I'm a huge fan of your settlement videos. On that topic, I was wondering if you've ever considered doing a series where you build up settlements rather than showing off the completed locations. Settlement building was the feature I was most excited about, but it felt like a huge letdown when I actually got my hands on the game. If you could to a guide series on how to effectively use the construction system, I and many others would be grateful.
    And on the topic of the State House, I only got as far as the first mirelurk hatchlings before I noped my level 7 character out of there and never went back.

    Hey Oxhorn i know you say you read all your comments but i don't know if you'll see this as this isn't the most recent video. Also this is kinda long. The important thing is here a plaque outside the state house, and i think it provides insight into the whole of fallout history.
    On it it seems to imply that the 13 commonwealths were formed in 1969 and given the commonwealth flag being in the Washington dc museum of science's representation of the virgo lander making fallout's first moon landing on July 15th 1969 it has to have been earlier that year. however the question still remains why? What would get america to make this change were they scared before 1969?
    Another thing of note in fallout America claims to have gotten a man into space first( may 5th 1961) The soviets and Chinese deny that possibly because in real life Yuri Gagarin did it on april 20th 1961. perhaps america thinks the soviets lied. However america in fallout makes its moon Virgo III Lander Valiant 12 landing 5 days before the real life apollo 11 landing.
    The following is pure speculation but it does provide a good motive. It you want you could use this as a basis for a video because its like one of the biggest questions about the divergence.
    Perhaps biggest change was not the lack of the transistor But in fact the time the world almost ended in 1963 The Cuban missile crisis.
    Perhaps there was a small conflict surrounding the cuban missle crisis but no nukes were launched and while horrific it wasn't enough to actually turn into world war 3. However the fighting still could've terrified the world to the point where both America and the Soviets made massive reforms.
    Reforms that 6 years later lead to a new system that weakens state power via the 13 commonwealths. Meanwhile the soviet reforms might be why they survived past 1991 and all the way to 2077 where they seem to have friendly relations with the US perhaps the soviets became more of democratic socialists (somewhat like the nordic countries but a little more weighted towards the socialism aspect.) As it is socialism but its not communism and is democratic enough to end the hate between the two nations.
    China on the other hand wouldn't be involved and this could mean Nixon never had to be friendly with china. Meaning china never made the reforms it has today. Explaining why one of the premade vault 13 residents can be related to a soviet diplomat and why china becomes the one to start the resource wars. Because america never opened up trade with it and then denied it the last unclaimed oil in the world.
    The us and china weren't friends but they didn't hate each other yet. Then china just as starved for oil as the rest of the world asks america to share ,and Regardless whether its out of political differnces or the fact that America really needed the oil as well says no. Justified or not this enrages china. So they are left with a decision ironicly much like their enemy the Japanese had in 1941. Die from lack of oil or gain oil at any cost. China Decided to fight to survive invading alaska and plunging the world into a war that would eventually end with china losing on all fronts against a vengeful and ruthless america. So begins the Great war.

    I like the irony of those who claim to embody democracy turning around and ignoring democracy every chance they get - and then accusing those who protest and want them to honor democracy of being communists. It's all over Prewar America in the Fallout Universe. As much as they go on about democracy, they don't really seem to be very democratic at all.
    Also, there's no real indication that the treasurer was actually "eyeing" the position of governor for himself - that's possibly just Graham's projection, basically what he would be doing in Robert's place.

  • @Falcon8492

    Just to add to the Governor discussion, the greeter Mr Handy at the General Atomics Galleria addresses you as "Provisional Governor Graham" when told sarcastically that you are the governor of Massachusetts. Given that their programming was unaltered since before the war, that must have been his official title.

    I just found a minor issue with the lever action rifle in this video it shows it firing a spitzer (pointed) bullet and the 45-70 round is not because it was created before spitzer bullets where invented and in the tube magazine in a level action rifle the point of the bullet would be resting against the primer of the bullet in front of it in the tube and when fired the recoil would cause a chain fire in the tube destroying the gun it's a nit picky complaint I know but still

      When you think about it, every location in the game is like its own mini-movie. It has its corrupt pre-war lore then its modern day hazards. This basically revealed that the State House plumbing was ignored before the bomb dropped so mirelurks took it over. Then there's the Raiders looking for "valuables" with the hostage they killed. Add in the hatchling busting out of the raider, the Mirelurk coming through the floor and the Queen boss fight....you could make a movie out of that and it's just ONE location in the game

This was my FIRST Mirelurk Queen, and she came with that Legendary Killclaw to REALLY make things tough, plus all this was coupled with having to play grenade-and-minigun hopscotch with that powersuited raider, later on. Jack The Fourth had a tough time.

    I suspect Graham made a move to at least to claim to be Governor. It may be related to the line in the terminal saying that there is unrest due to Graham's recent actions. Did he do something to the Governor? Or do something to illegitimately claim the Governorship? Maybe claim his superior was unwell or something?
