You left out the most interesting Zetan audio log: One of their victims was a linguist, and she'd nearly cracked their language. This prompted an aggressive reaction from the Zetans. In other words, they are actively preventing any sort of real communication between Zetans and humans, though why is unclear.

[@painthegreat]

It could be because they don’t view humans as a sentient race necessary for communication. To them, we may as well be animals on a lab table

From this video, I have the belief that the Zetans aren't unified (they definitely have castes if Mothership Zeta is a valid example), but the different designs of craft and some weaponry suggests factions with diverging technological bases.

[@N3phi11im]

I'm just saying people in the same nation have different cars and different guns. Also the alien in fallout 4 is I think what 10 years in the future or 20 after fallout 3? Could be that they just upgraded their ships and weapons. I really want to know more about it y'know.

[@N3phi11im]

I definitely agree.

[@danlemongton7534]

There's also the more simple possibility of the differences in technology simply being caused by the advance of technology over time. Remember, the alien craft and blaster in FO3 were clearly there for quite a while, while the ship in FO4 crashed literally as we were playing. considering how rapidly human technology has changed in the last 50 years, and the fact that the rate of technological advancement grows exponentially as a society advances, it wouldn't be surprising if the differences we noticed were caused by the swift technological advancement of an interstellar society.

[@chiffoncakeandtea]

​​@@N3phi11im I find that hard to believe, considering that in the morhership zeta dlc, they had humans from up to 500 years before the events of the game, suggesting that their technology seems to have been the same for centuries, so a massive change in just a few years is (imo) unlikely, also the aliens from fo4 appear in 76 too, and that game takes place only 25 years or so after the bombs dropped, more than a hundred years before 4.

@@YoungBuck7912 Yep, exactly lol. What an annexed country in real life becomes (i.e. how it is incorporated into the annexing nation) can certainly vary based on all kinds of factors, not the least of which is the surrounding historical context present in the moment, there's no doubt about that. In this case from the Fallout universe, the country of Canada had been effectively bullied, disrespected, and exploited by the United States for at least an entire decade prior to the ultimate, horrifically violent annexation. So in no way did the Canadian people want the Americans to be there (they were leaving cities destroyed in their wake, and stealing a ridiculous amount of natural resources to use for the war effort against china, ignoring, suppressing, and crushing protests all the while), let alone be fully stripped of their national sovereignty, dignity, you get the gist. It was not a mutually beneficial relationship, and it wasn't built on trust, mutual respect, solidarity, or fairness. The U.S. government could and should absolutely be classified as having been a truly evil entity, and an irredeemable one by any meaningful metric, starting *at least* ten years before the Great War began and ended in nuclear fire. With that context, we can look at the result of the eventual _official_ annexation of Canada in 2072, and wholly understand it. Canada didn't stop existing in '72, but oh man I'd bet people would've wished they _had_ been removed from existence every day of that final half a decade before the bombs dropped (I mean literally all protestors including peaceful ones were simply being*shot on sight, sometimes executed publicly on camera,* it's horrifying to imagine)-the Canadian provinces were made U.S. territories, not several states (that each would be entitled to two US senators), not one single state (which would at least give Canada two federal senators and some meager voting representation in Congress, not a commonwealth, territories. No voting power, no say in their own fate, no rights at that point whatsoever, which to be fair was also true for the American citizenry at the time, the democratic era was long gone.

There's actually one more captive log from Mothership Zeta that reveals a piece of lore about the aliens. I can't quite recall the log number off the top of my head at the moment, but there's one where all you hear is intermittent chattering in the Zetan language, by a Zetan, broken by periods of dead silence. However, if you press play on the captive log, then exit out of the Pipboy, and you happen to have subtitles on, the subtitles tell an entirely different story. The periods of silence are subtitled with text implying the the Zetans are using psychic powers to interrogate a human soldier from one of the US military bases that hold America's nukes. The Zetans are attempting to mind control the soldier into revealing the base's launch codes, and he's resisting as hard as he can...but the end of the log implies he actually caves in and gives the codes right after the recording cuts off. This has been taken by theorists, to imply that the Zetans were the ones who started the Great War.

[@jakespacepiratee3740]

Despite doing less damage than the F4 version, it’s worth mentioning that F76 is the earliest Fallout Game canonically. The Fallout 76 Blaster could have been the first blaster of that model the Zetans produced, a prototype.

[@Roger44477]

...How would when the game takes place matter for that? All we know is that the blaster was from pre-war, and that means very little when Hub's alien blaster was also pre-war, there's a good chance the one in the Enclave crawler base was pre-war, and presumably the alien weapons technology used to develop the first plasma weapon prototypes was an alien blaster as well. Honestly, the best arguments for why the FO76 one sucks are it being submerged in water for who knows how long, and any tinkering that could have been done to it in attempts to learn more about it.

[@Chris-bv1bk]

But the blaster design from Nuka World? That's pre-war with the same design as fallout 3. At least 25 years pre-Fo76

[@Pyronar]

Hubology is a very obvious reference to Scinetology, considering the name of the founder and the fact that he was at one point a science fiction writer. As well as their whole level system. Honestly, it's everything about them. The Emissary references Men in Black as a general concept, since in many versions of the legend, they are sort of non-human agents poorly masquerading as human, much like Homer. The whole affair does remind me of some of the more wacky alien theories like the Twelve Alien Races and the secret agreement between the US government and aliens. Zettans look most similar to the Greys who, in most depictions, have an interest in human genetics and are very invasive in their study methods. The Greys are usually considered at odds with the more benevolent aliens that seek to shepherd humanity.

[@helmutkok7833]

The men in black is following the myths from the area around Point Pleasant they was first sigthed after the Mothman sigthings

[@TheoRae8289]

let's not forget that Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones did 2 Men in Black films, where they were government agents trying to prevent civilians from knowing about aliens. As a matter of fact, that weird esoteric tangent he goes on mimics Agent Kay's "You ever just look up at the stars?" bit before the Flashy Thingies you, which is what the Emissary does to the player. The name of the character could be a potential Trek nod, as Avery Brooks's Sisko was known as the Emissary to the Bajorans, but that part might be a stretch. (I noticed we see both Thetan and Zetan used in FO3, but I have a theory that Thetan got left in by accident and it was a placeholder potentially connecting them to the hubologists more directly.)

Pretty Sure that is his whole deal in this, a MIB reference. And adding to that Homer he could just be another MIB agent, they do have Aliens from all kinds of races in their ranks and him trying to fit in or make it easier for you to "trust" him would explain his weird behaviour.

[@Bane_questionmark]

The Men in Black movies are loosely based on actual stories of "men in black" related to aliens/UFOs. They're often very strange in behavior and appearance, ranging from just a little off normal to very eerie and inhuman, though sometimes they're just people who seem to be acting "fake" and give vague ID details. They show up at people's houses to collect UFO evidence (which is then never seen again, the agency/org. they claimed to work for has never heard of them etc.) or to interview witnesses. Often the stories involve memory of a bright flash of light after which they don't remember what happened or where the men in black went. Sometimes men in black also follow people in cars, or show up semi-randomly in remote places but wearing nice clothes and still behaving strangely. Whether they're against the aliens or not varies. They're usually supposed to be with the government or they claim to be, but they're always covering up alien stuff. In some stories the government is supposed to be against the aliens, in some they're working with the aliens, in some there are good and bad aliens that work with different humans, but the MIBs are pretty much always bad. In some stories they're implied to be aliens in disguise, or some creation of the aliens disguised as humans. Sometimes when they're in remote areas they get in and out of UFOs, like a UFO will drop down in the woods and a guy in a suit will walk out alone before the UFO takes off lmao. I'd recommend looking up some of the stories, plenty on youtube. The Men in Black movies are fun but they're only related to the original stories in superficial ways.

[@mintyfreshdeath]

@@Bane_questionmark Very familiar with them actually. The use of the white flash to represent the neuralyzer seemed like a direct reference to the movies though.

You missed a location, though I think its a random encounter. But near the location where moira sends you to monitor the mirelurks there's a statue. If you go there, there's a chance for 'something' to explode in the air, and a bunch of alien rounds to scatter arround the area, as well as the fire lancer, which is a variant of the alien blaster.

Should be noted that The Forecaster is meant to be a Psyker, a term for Fallout's people with mutations that give them psychic powers. It is the same effect as the Master, some of his followers in the Cathedral, Melchior and Hakunin from Fallout 2, Bloomseer Poplar and The AntAgonizer in Fallout 3 (and possibly Professor Calvert, it's not clear if his abilities come from tech or native psychic abilities), Mama Murphy from Fallout 4 (again, possibly Lorenzo as well, it's not clear whether his supernatural powers are a Psyker mutation or entirely a result of his encounter with the eldritch or his helmet), hell there's even a whole tribe of them in Fallout Tactics, the Beastlords. While the Psychic Nullifier is certainly a potential link to alien tech, it is clear that most of the actual psychic abilities are just a result of FEV mutations. What this *does* imply, though, is that psychic abilities operate on some kind of unified force, and that the Zetans likely know ways to manipulate it.

The Zetans have always really made me think a Fallout X Xcom style title would rock - even more so post FO4, with the focus on base building, fallout shelter, etc - could easily become your Xcom style 'main base', and the apocalyptic setting would make going out on missions (to raid, progress story, battle, loot, etc) fitting too.

[@kyleellis1825]

I always thought it would be neat for Bethesda to make an alternate universe game(s) where the great war never happened. Instead, we get one game where the Zetans are the reason the world ended and it's an alien invasion apocalypse, where we're surviving after the earth governments took out the mothership (and fell apart in the invasion.)

In the Flatwoods Monster tape you played, the cop's name is "D. B. Walton," which is a reference to one of the most famous alien abduction stories. The story of Travis Walton was adapted into the movie Fire In The Sky, where Walton was played by D. B. Sweeney.

One of the logs on Mothership Zeta was the US defence minister who was forced to hand over the launch codes of Americas nukes. While on the alien voice is the one heard the subtitles were still in the game and it brings up the possibility that the Zetans started the great War. But I guess that as it was removed it isn't counted right?

[@Roger44477]

The funny thing there is that he *wasn't* forced to, he was just being made to talk into the recording device like everyone else. He just assumed that was what they were after because it was the most sensitive information he had.

[@Toon_Lucario]

My theory about why the alien tech looks different between 3 and 4 is one of 2 theories 1. The aliens upgraded their tech after their defeat at the hands of the Sole Survivor 2. The blasters are different because the aliens holding them were at different ranks

[@immasword]

I think you ment to say Lone Wanderer on your first point

but the 4 version was found during pre war by that Hubble dude and the guys in 76. the 3 version was also mimicked by nuka world which was also pre war.

They could just be different weapons all together, kind of like our weapons such as the m4 or m16. I think they are just different models for different roles such as support or assault

[@obnoxiouspedant]

3. Bethesda are inconsistent

[@AllAboutParker]

I don't know if it's been said/suggested yet, but I'm pretty sure The Emissary's strange dialog is at least partially a reference to the series Men In Black given that he is quite literally that. It sounds an awful lot like the phrasing Agent K's former partner and then Agent K himself used at the end of the movie before asking for his "retirement" and being neuralized and returned to being a civilian. Even more likely since that effect and blinding light the NPC hits the player with appears to be a similar to the blinding light the neuralizer uses. Only it's just a cheeky way for him to depart.

[@TheoRae8289]

I had to scroll so damn far before finding someone else who caught that and mentioned it.

[@Schneter]

I think that "The Emissary" is heavily based on "Indrid Cold", also known as the grinning man. Indrid Cold is of a man, or creature, who was seen on the roads of West Virginia in the sixties. He apparently was spotted several times, and, according to some testimony did not have a nose or ears, other than that being of normal, but rather tall and broad appearance. He was apparently rather friendly, and stated that he meant no harm. Some sightings involve him travelling in a UFO, while still always being dressed in a suit. The name of Indrid Cold is the name he gave to himself, and he also stated that he was from a different planet and curious about humanity.

[@goose5581]

It’s a men in black refrence, he talks about the night sky which they do, they also use a bright light deneuraliser to delete ur memories which he does

[@Schneter]

@@goose5581 Not saying that you're wrong but the man that is in the game is almost spot on Indrid Cold, who has also been seen in West Virginia. Might be a man in black thing too, but my money is on Indrid Cold

[@argentum909]

​@@Schneternah the Emissary literally quoted a line from the first Men in Black movie. Immediately followed by a flash (neuralizer), and the man is gone. Highly doubtful this is referencing someone with no facial features.

[@Schneter]

@@argentum909 thanks for your input

[@AzayBae]

@@argentum909The man in the game calls himself Indrid. He is supposed to be the same creature from the myth. In the story when Cole was first sighted he had no facial features and with each new sighting he gained a nose, ears, etc. He only used telepathy to communicate and always smiled. Some think he is related to the urban legend Men in Black (the comic the movies are based on are inspired by the legends of them who appear after ufo sightings).

[@banansa4778]

Just to add to the giddy up butter cup lore, willson atomatoys didnt make the toy for zetans, its one of their own robot spy/attack drones, the little girl you meet in game that saves you actually got to see these toys do a test fire on a civillan in an audio log. What you dont realise, its the zetans were the ones that made the toy, gave the design to the company to sell and produce it, and remote control the units so they can identify any humans that they had an interest in to abduct or were a threat that needed to be terminated.

[@lazarusofdeath3123]

Awesome video! I love these long investigations while I drive across the Floridian wasteland! A couple key points worth looking into for the next one: The emissary has a line about the “guidestones” which are mentioned in VTU and the investigators cabin AND can be found nearby the federal disposal site in the south savage divide. The invaders from beyond event was all about destroying their brainwave siphons. What do the zetans want with our brainwaves? And the Olney powerworks in Fallout 3 (broken steel dlc) also had alien blaster ammo to be found. There was a random encounter in Fallout 3 as well where an invisible alien ship crashes and drops a unique alien blaster “firelance”. And lastly, you can find lore in vault 96 while doing the BOS questline in 76 that describes holding a specimen that describes a flatwoods monster even though it’s not named and you can’t find the cell.

[@fueledbyregret]

Your coverage is so comprehensive and entertaining, just the way I like my lore videos. Keep up the great work, I can’t wait for your next Fallout piece!

[@chancefreely]

An interesting note perhaps is that the Hubologists were most likely named that way as a reference to L Ron Hubbard, who was a science fiction writer and founded the cult-like religion of Scientology, and also probably a reference to the Hubble Telescope. The Hubologist's practice of being extremely secretive is also pretty on-brand for Scientology. How you progress through the tiers of Hubology is also pretty much identical to Scientology too. Most people might already know this but I might as well put this down for those who don't.

Hey Nate, there's a random encounter in FO76 with an NPC walking around with an eyebot that is making the alien transmission sounds to a rhythm. I think it sounds like a sort of Zetan music radio. You should take a look at it, I'd love to hear your take.

Honestly Nate, the way you credit the people who helped you make the videos is super admirable.

[@timomajere]

One thing I always wanted to know and thus far no one seems to know the answer to; is IN the sniper scope when NOT looking down the sight itself, the sunglasses reflection and in some dirty glass reflections, there appears to be , a scene of some sort being played out. It appears to be a house of some sort, somewhat similar to the one Desmond lives in for Point Lookout dlc for Fallout 3. It's in Fallout 4 as well, Same locations too in fact. I'm sure many people have noticed it and no one can really give a definitive answer with proof of it.

[@swk3000]

I don’t believe there’s anything specific to it. It takes too much processing power to reflect the actual area around you, so the game uses a pre-set “reflection”. This is most notable on the glass domes used by the pay phones in Fallout 4, especially ones inside: despite being inside, the reflection will be that of a city street.

[@timomajere]

@@aircobraman1375 Its a nice though, but its in Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas, Fallout 76 and Fallout 4. All four of those involve different people, yet it is the same image. Logically ,it can not be such a think as a memory of image of anyones past if all 4 different vault people have it from different times and different locations.

[@timomajere]

@@swk3000 The fact it uses any reflection means it was thought and considered first. They knew an unloaded texture would not work, not would simply a black void. Nope It has nothing to do with processing power at all. It is a static image, one they reused in 4 different fallout games, FO3, F:NV, FO4 and FO:76. There is a reason they KEEP reusing that particular asset and i believe that is possibly a mystery to be discovered.

[@timomajere]

@Falcon_by_the_lake As I stated to the other commenter, This exists in 4 separate Fallout games, 4. Each games uses different specifications and different vault entities . It simply can not be a performance artefact. Having a simple black void would use so much less resources than an actual static image of anything with colors, shades and variants.

Would love to see you do a video on the history of bottle caps as currency. I've been replaying Fallout 4 thanks to this video and the Dunwich video, and after freeing Jack Cabot he mentions bottle caps being the so called currency. Made me think about why it became the accepted currency, and how it became accepted across the country when paper money from the old world seems to be easily obtained everywhere.

[@yaldabaothofgalar2618]

The pre-war money is a tangible representation of the countries wealth at large. Just like IRL. So without government and the national banking systems, those government bank notes have no value.

[@sheppycider123]

The other thing is inflation, if you can walk in a bank and get millions of dollars in cash then it’s worthless

[@Skullhawk13]

It’s from fallout 1. One bottle cap = one serving of water from the hub. It was adopted on the west coast first, then the East from traders. It’s a standard precious resource backed currency

[@amswordcatte]

As usual, awesome content from Nate. My only complaint: The year you're looking for is 1582.
