Yes! Finally more Fallout! I don't even play Fallout, I'm just a lore junkie interested on the world building. 😅

[@IGDCAM]

Play it you poser. Botw is trash compared to new vegas

Honestly you get the games and get some essential mods and enjoy

I love listening to your videos like podcasts while I’m at work, your voice is very professional.

I would love to see a movie of Nick Valentine's story.

Bringing valentine to the brotherhood is like bringing your black friend to a Klan meet

Old habits are hard to kill including economic separation. Definitely brings the low people even further down at times and can sometimes just plainly lead to a revolt. The synth twist of Fallout 4 really surprised me but I think it's awesome. Great to learn more about this iconic city! Well played.

[@dalewall6666]

Dam i was just watching some lore from you on fallout then bioshock and noticed the icon changed for fallout and went, "oh shit, new video", caught me off guard lmao. But keep up the good work, once you find the lore on games sometimes you realize how limited it is, but intresting none the less.

[@dalewall6666]

Oh and if you see this, could you cover the mothman cult full depth, it would be pretty cool.

[@Greeneyesamurai]

I still remember finding diamond city in my first play through of fallout 4 all those years ago. Definitely one of my favorite places in the game. Great video!

[@clan741]

I learned more about diamond city in this video than I had years of playing the game, I just stuck to my own settlements and looting lol

[@GlitterGothBunny]

This video was so interesting. I dont even play most of the games you cover but you always make stuff easy to understand and fun even if you dont know the lore. Keep up the good work :)

[@kylekopsi7039]

I gotta hand it to Bethesda Fallouts for one thing. I love their city designs, and stumbling upon them on the first time is almost always a treat. Diamond City, Megaton, Rivet City. It isn’t a large spectacle but sometimes simplicity is key.

[@awesomehpt8938]

Bit strange that Detroit is in the middle of Boston.

[@kylekopsi7039]

Bethesda made everything look soft. Mutants, the wasteland, Detroit 😂💀 From a Michigan residents perspective this is child’s play to the real deal

[@enriquegd2977]

Detroit in Fallout is... near indistinguishable

[@goldberg5024]

Can’t even have Detroit in Detroit smh

Detoilet? The entirety of the US is a wasteland tbh. As an Irishman you make us wanna identify as easterners

I just want to say thank you @wisefish ! These videos bring me such great joy and comfort, I absolutely LOVE the world of fallout and I have watched all your fallout videos many many times , so thank you ! You do a fantastic job!

[@topcat59]

Honestly it surprises me that the children of Atom don’t like the minuteman which is strange, if this was the children of Atom from far harbor I can understand there concern of them taking over the territory of the island but the ones in diamond city shouldn’t be concern by this at all.🤨🐱

[@kellyalger2394]

The Institute, Become Human

[@dillonklasse4980]

Anyone else feel like synths just don’t belong? Prewar tech especially robots run on gears and pistons, but postwar they’ve got bio robotic synths that are indistinguishable from humans? That’s like going directly from using record players to iPods, theirs too big of a leap in technology. They should have saved the sci-fi Bladerunner/west world stuff for star-field

[@noobndenial7551]

I mean its not really that big of a leap if you consider that the institute has been there since the bombs fell working for 200 years

[@marcusblackwell2372]

Diamond City Radio has some of the best music in the Fallout franchise

[@cosmic_twin769]

Wow, mayor McDougah came to power in a society going through hard times while blaming a certain group for all of their problems and treating them badly for it. Sounds like a certain mustached guy we know from the 1940s

Also known as 'Generic post-apocalyptic BIG town #5"

[@codycarabotta5621]

I just realized how odd it is that its named *Diamond* City, and referred to as "The Great *Green* Jewel of The Commonwealth". I get both names' reasoning, its just a bit odd that both are affiliated with precious stones, but two different ones. Like, if I were to decide the color scheme I would have chose white or something to represent the Diamond aspect better. Just to give it that much more consistency with the name. Idk. lol

[@Cowboycomando54]

Diamonds can be green if the correct impurities are trapped in its crystal structure.

[@codycarabotta5621]

@@Cowboycomando54 Meh. Will still stick in my brain forever now. Nobody thinks green when they think of diamonds, or vice versa. Must be Mayor McDonut slackin on literally all things not Institute concerning.

[@codeinecowboy8607]

Safe to say that these wastelanders have never seen a diamond or an emerald before, and just associate diamond with baseball and green jewel with the wall

[@codycarabotta5621]

@@codeinecowboy8607 I know. Thats the most ironic part of it. At the same time, isnt it kinda strange you *dont* see *any* jewelery of any kind like ever? The closest thing I can recall is the Spouse Ring at the beginning of the game, or perhaps some quest item to retrieve for an NPC. But we never actually do see pre-war jewelery of really any sort. We see it occassionally as part of certain specific outfits (Cabot daughter, I think). But it seems a bit odd we never find any jewels, or necklaces, or earings or finger rings or literally any form of pre-war jewelery at all. We find gold and silver bullions. But no precious gems or jewelery. Perhaps people simply couldnt afford any kind of jewelery and raw gold and silver was more valuable for production and manufacturing.

I think it’s suppose to represent the giant green wall in the outfield of the baseball diamond in Fenway park.

How old was father when that synth lost its shit and started shooting up the bar? If he was already working on synths at that point than there’s a decent chance his synth obsessed ass sent that guy out into the field.

[@buwad523]

Ehhh swatta swatta, swatta can hit boom

[@TurKlack]

Whenever I look at a Bethesda made RPG I weep. All that potential, all that complexity, all that worldbuilding... entirely removed for a looter shooter experience. With no structure or care to it's worldbuilding. The Institute is just on of it's biggest weaknesses. I firmly believe that someone at Bethesda decided to rewrite them. To turn the old Man into Shaun, for an artificial big plottwist reveal. But by doing so they created only more plotholes. Why didn't Kellog age a day? Why was he the only one to receive "immortality" when it could, should and would be used by the whole Institute personal? Why make such a big deal about child Shaun? It's just a synth, isn't it? And the Institute itself is just so much wasted potential by making them the boogeyman that does evil for no other reason than being evil. It's a shame.

[@thehillbillygamer2183]

What don't make no sense is there is no prostitution in Diamond City or nowhere lock the old west there would be a ladies of the evening flying their trade

There is zero cybernetics purchasable in fallout four and it’s a blatant lie to say so why be inaccurate it’s literally easier to get it right

[@elvangulley3210]

How big does Bethesda think a baseball field is ? This is one of the reasons i dont like what Bethesda has done to fallout. They are terrible at world building. Its been well over 200 years since the bombs fell. But Bethesda is still hell bent on making every game look like the bombs just fell. They really made it where none of the east coast has rebuilt or progressed at all in 200 years. While on the wesy coast they have built a multi state government with good housing tvs running water public electricity hood clothing wotking mass farms and cattle ranches and other industries.
