Go a bit further and it is theorized the whole simulation is based on Nate himself. He and his family were secured a spot in Vault 111 because of his exemplary work in the military. It’s also known he was involved in the Resource Wars and even deployed on Anchorage in the 108th infantry regiment 2nd battalion. Elliot was in this same regiment although I believe a different battalion, although it cannot be said for certain they ever met. Still, pretty neat!

The statue being based on that photo, as depicted by this virtual training program, is completely absurd.

WRONG! The moral decision is that the raiders are trying to rebuild the steel industry for Pittsburgh, at the cost of using slaves now for no slaves later. Ashur (the raider boss, ex brotherhood of steel) wants to give real jobs back to the people. And they're also more equipped to cure the troglodyte disease that plagues the state. So the moral dilemma is potentially rebuilding society in an area almost completely uninhabitable or freeing the people suffering for it. Tbh bro oversimplified this one the worst in the video.

The fact that he got them rounded up into a solid slave driving force at all is a miracle. It's really just a matter of looking at the long run. Should we do bad now for a for sure good future or should we all suffer and hope that people will help each other willingly? And tbh the work is apparently hell, so no one will willingly do it or at least not enough to make it a viable option anytime soon without forced labor. And finally, I'd like to point out it's implied the freed slaves will turn raider later anyways. The Pitt is hard and forces people to do bad shit to survive.

[@MODElAIRPLANE100]

It's a gray area, of course reducing personal carbon footprint all around the world does have a positive effect, but the major way it should be tackled is through policy and change on an industrial level. Furthermore offsetting your carbon footprint does not actually reduce it, questions arise around what other carbon reducing activities would occur on the land the trees are planted. If a tree would naturally already sprout there, your offset would be worthless, as it would have happened anyway. Taking this into consideration I wouldn't advice anyone to go for carbon footprint offset, instead look at reducing your direct footprint by being aware of what you buy and where it comes from and try to get involved in local sustainability iniatives and politics!

Completing Anchorage allows you to use Power Armour early. Without it, you can't use Power Armour until right near the end of the base game. It does however make the "shoot 'em in the head" quest go a bit wrong because the ghoul claims you cheated him even if you haven't done anything yet. Both quests give you power armour, but they are different and I guess the ghoul can't tell the one you have isn't the one he wanted you to get for him.

Don't be ridiculous, the level of education in regards to responsibility around the environment is desperately low, even in today's youth. If you've ever seen the average household waste stream, you would understand. We're never going to get to a place where we can shovel a ton of random waste into some magical machine and have it solve all our problems with no negative externalities. Improving the level of understanding and participation in society is crucial, as we can't go back to the way things were 20, 30 or 50 years ago, let alone keep doing what we're doing. Legislation solves an important problem, but unless people get personally involved, government can only go so far. They're two edges on the sword.

@@superchroma "improving awareness" isn't the same as shovelling money onto a money fire, like wren. F*cking LOOK UP individual carbon footprints, it's a blame shifting measure. Yes the individual has a part to play, of bloody course they do. But it starts at the top. "Two edges on the sword" huh? So, rusting and denting the already miniscule "edge" in comparison that individuals are responsible for is the answer? Pouring money into measures that only alleviate the shame of individuals, when the shame they feel is a documented and known falsehood, foisted upon them by big oil? I in no way want us to go backward here, the implication that I do is downright offensive. You mistake my contempt for scammers who play on the lie shoved down the throats of the proletariat, for the contempt fools hold for general climate change awareness. Get a grip.

The Operation Anchorage one; has a quest, that grants The power armour use: skill/ perk for free, to even low-level characters, and grants a Power Armour, that never needs to be repaired. This is probably what makes Fall Out 3, my all-time favourite game. I waited for all the DLC to be out before playing. As a freshly minted Vault exitee, I legged it to the quest marker. Made it at about level 5. 100 hours followed of just running end to end of the map. finding every location, quick travel point, killing everything bad and looting everything I came across, whilst doing all side quests, I stumbled across, before sinking about 67 hrs in the campaign.

Im not opposed to that kind of severity, but I dont think the always a little janky engine and aesthetic conveys it too well vs the B-movie style of OWB. I.e. Even though I understood New Vegas was posing some interesting quandaries, I never really felt the horrors of Caesars legion, etc. but I did laugh and have a lot of fun with the think tanks and quests of OWB. (This can even make the rarer more serious moments hit harder when they do come around.)

Honestly the big issue with the DLC is that it's Bethesda doing it. The DLC is just content padding and the only stuff that actually adds anything that makes narrative sense is the Broken Steel DLC that replaces the ending screen and lets you run around the map in a perpetual sandbox. It's now the expected norm for players picking up the game to ignore all other plot or narrative and just beeline to the Operation Anchorage DLC location...after which the Brotherhood Outcasts don't even bother acknowledging it ever happened, which means everyone there is free to kill off for their faction loot to keep or sell. None of what you do at Point Lookout, Project Zeta, Anchorage, or the Pit matters to the rest of the DC Ruins. The closest you get to any of it mattering is the daughter you were sent to rescue replacing the ferry boat captain at the very end and that's it. Nobody comments on your weird new weaponry or outfits, there's no alien spacecraft bits falling out of the sky, the Outcasts don't kill you on sight for embarassing them by walking away with an armory's worth of advanced pre-war tech, and nobody talks about the Pit. The closest thing you ever get is weird comments from the Outcasts for turning in alien weaponry...which, why bother even doing that? The rewards are lackluster.
