Fallout Series Fun Facts - Volume 8

[@TKsMantis]

I have teamed up with my friend Charlie who makes awesome enamel pins! You can use my link to get some dope Fallout pins, and because you are using my link, you get an exclusive TKs-Mantis sticker. Check out Pins by Charlie : www.pinsbycharlie.com/TKS-Mantis-c142812028

[@High-Overlord-Pugula]

I love that you put these together in a big video. Good stuff!

[@MLPDethDealr32]

i had a friend that used to collect those.

[@briannewman5614]

Thanks for the space wreck reference though! It's looks similar in style to the Original two FO games. I believe I will enjoy it!

[@ReubenBuenes]

Same w/ Triangle City

[@istoleasweetroll7937]

“Ready for the adventure express?” *Pearl harbor casually explodes in the background*

[@emperortrevornorton3119]

Pretty much or Fatman

[@sticky489]

No better way to relax than a Mantis video on fullscreen and a warm meal to enjoy.

[@briannewman5614]

Indeed!😊

[@cloakstormsoldier5799]

Me: eating a bowl of Chilli Harold:”AGGH OOOO UGHHHH”

[@Retinatizm]

I'm on da turlet

[@medicodyssey]

Same man. Always a good day when a volume drops and I make some lunch and get to enjoy two great things. Highlight of the week lol.

[@raymondjack]

@sticky. :Your rads have increased:

[@MeredithLikely]

11:59 I'm a cobbler! I have several boxes of these soles and the decals in my shop from the 1920's are all the same. As soon as i saw these on screen I jumped because my cobbler knowledge has never applied so directly to a game lmao. Glad to know the fallout saga has some cobbler sole in it!

[@alaric_]

About that Homeplate-home that you can buy.. I really liked it and i considered it always as the characters place of relaxation and unwinding. Where the other settlements are more like hubs for people, Preston and occasional fighting, the Homeplate is separate from settlers, enemies and weather. Therefore it's a natural place for planning, listening to holo-tapes, sorting stuff and decorating the home in peace, without interruptions. Because of that, it's a mandatory place to buy in my opinion.

[@orangeismyfavoritecolor]

I feel like this could be said about that island you can use as a settlement too. Just gotta swim over there and activate the anti-Mirelurk frequency and stuff (and fight a Mirelurk Queen).

[@BxBxProductions]

ngl homeplate's one of the places where your stored items won't get jacked by passing settlers!

[@bigounce4293]

I always get a mod that doesn’t make it look like a flop house.

[@I_am_a_cat_]

Or you could just get rid of all the settlers somewhere

[@weasleytwinsgurl]

My fav part of Andale is when you talk to Linda (might be the other wife) she invites you for dinner sometime and when you exit the convo, she says "I can't wait to have you for dinner" totally is my fav line they put in because it's easy to skip over but it's a hint too

[@DocTraubo]

7:18 .. now this is *really* dark. I would hate myself even though it's just an RPG. Great collection, by the way!

[@abelq8008]

Wonder what happens if you kill the slaver before they leave?

[@scorchinorphan1687]

16:31 killed me. Also, Homeplate was the first place a set a home in Fallout 4 when it came out, I didnt like having to fast travel to multiple places for shops, my items, and Nick when he wondered back

[@hazcat640]

11:55 Those are not 'anti-slip shoe covers'. LOL Those are replacement heels for shoes and boots. Back in the day when you wore the heels down on your shoes you could go to the shoemaker and have them replaced for very little money. It's also where the saying 'down at the heels' comes from meaning you were so poor you couldn't afford to get new heels on your shoes.

[@origamighost9668]

The goat simulator "Fallout boi" easter egg could be considered a double easter egg, since its also a clear reference to the band "Fall out boy"

[@ScreachHiensburg]

"Please don't kill me, I have a kid in Rivet City." Isn't there a kid in Rivet City whose father went missing?

[@tylerbarnes972]

Yep. James, the kid with an alcoholic mother.

[@MLPDethDealr32]

TK, you know you can interact with the sink in your house in Fallout 4, during the PRe War section. Interacted with the coffee cup, drank coffee then went to the sink and drank from the water faucet.

[@rustyjones7908]

Gotta keep hydrated, brah.

[@iluvkorn4205]

53:00 I have spent so many hours in this game yet I still haven't heard of this until now, amazing

[@RawTactics1]

Man it's hard to believe goodsprings was 6 months ago. It doesn't even feel real tbh. My dad passed, then I went there, played nv in the Saloon, met you, came home, got married, and opened a business. God has been so good to my family.

[@markanxrath807]

Hey mantis, happy to see you active and thriving. Best of luck to you and your team. Greatly enjoy these videos

[@Ramtech-117]

Long format content like yours are what I listen to when I am at work. Thank you for what you do. 🙂

[@steventhe429th6]

Just adding my own timestamp to remember myself by. Thank you again to Mantis for the amazing videos and making my suggestion into content for the Fallout community to enjoy! (25:32 - 27:07) Hadrian's Unique Humor in Fallout: New Vegas

[@SkiesFFS]

Finally, a new video of the Holy Mantis!

[@JENSEN10110]

Hey Mantis, I have you friended on steam and see how much time you put into Fallout. Glad you go through all that time and effort to make these downright addicting videos. Keep it up mate!

[@TKsMantis]

Hey, thanks!

[@tylerleach8796]

Not sure if anyone has brought this up, but in the Fallout 4 Automotron and Nuka-World DLCs, you will get unique dialogue for wearing the Silver Shroud outfit. In Automotron, you can talk to The Mechanist as Silver Shroud and in Nuka-World; not only will Colter comment on the outfit you're wearing, but you can talk to the robots at Dry Rock Gulch as the Silver Shroud.

[@turdfurgeson8769]

Good thing I saw this in my suggested videos, didn't get a notification. Keep up the good work man. Your videos rule.

[@oxylepy2]

Whoa how did you find actual footage of Ghislaine Maxwell recruiting for Epstien? 7:30

[@michelledarling-ei6fd]

Super super sick today and gonna curl up in bed and watch some fallout facts. Love the content man keep it up ❤

[@hunter_0221]

52:36 Small nitpick: .223 Remington is literally just the civilian name for 5.56 mm (5.56 x 45). So no, the gun didn't change caliber through the games. Makes sense in the calculation, too: 25.4 mm x 0.223 equals 5.6 mm.

[@andrewpayne4795]

Got to love the clip at 8:00 just a random car blows up and you’re just like … “huh tf?”

[@dalesanteford7432]

Thank you for the show and my birthday today

[@SkiesFFS]

Happy birthday

[@TKsMantis]

Happy Birthday, Dale!🎂

[@dalesanteford7432]

Thank you and I appreciate it I've been getting back into Fallout 76 New Vegas and Fallout 4 should get back in the Fallout 3 I do have the DLC for all the games

[@dalesanteford7432]

Thank you mantis for the nuka-cola

[@1certain]

It was my birthday yesterday! Happy birthday 👍🏻

[@piggymaster3209]

Grognaks axe also looks like the iron battle axe from oblivion

[@liquidsnail7305]

Those Forge creations were amazing you can see the time and effort he's put into that!

[@tizza963]

Love these compilations! I hope he never runs out of interesting things :)

[@thelonewanderer8220]

Did you know that you can stumble upon an ant war in fallout 3? If you enter the shalebridge ant tunnels in shalebridge, you can find friendly ants battling invader ants.

[@charredolive]

25:09 Currently have Hancock rocking the Grognak outfit and it's so cursed

[@deetzyboywonder9312]

You probably have already done this one but finding Seymour in the divide was brutal the saddest futurama reference they could have done

[@Scarril_VT]

I feel like people miss that elevator in diamond city because of the lift inside the city. it takes you to a similar spot and find an interaction with piper. I cant recall if the elevator triggers it or not.

[@techpriestemily]

I found Home Plate on my first playthrough. It's honestly a really good player base due to the DC market being right outside your door. You can even send supply lines to it!

[@mikeemous1410]

Dogmeats red nose lol I feel like this was supposed to come out at Christmas

[@stephen5857]

Never thought a person from Newnan would have such a large channel, but hey, at least one of us got out of this place (I'm so sorry if you're stuck here with me)

[@lmno567]

30:26 the funny thing also is that the "E for everyone" rating went out the window in the first 3-4 minutes, wel before that part happens.

[@Chief-Seventy-Six]

YEAAAAAAH EPISODE 8 LOVE THIS SERIES THANKS SO MUCH MANTIS!

[@Metsugolden]

Aww sweeet just in time for a new video drop yesssss.

[@AhmetDursun1903]

I've been getting the player home in Diamond City since my very first playthrough. Maybe that's because I liked the Megaton home so much that I was looking for the option

[@Amknownas_743great_explainer]

The reason they MIGHT of done the changes on the large statue thing, those things are famous for being one mold that was changed into many many many forms as it was seen to be a great way to pull in customers at road side attractions

[@thebeast184]

The reason there's an article in the adult magazine is a reference to Kurt vonnegut some of his early works were first published in playboy hence the phrase "I read it for the articles"

[@pretzelthedude]

Funny, the elevator in Diamond City I remember well. I not only found it on my very first playthrough, but using it gave me my first (of SO many) Fallout 4 game crashes to desktop 🤣.

[@TonsofGunz4399]

8:00 yeah adventure( massive explosions and fawkes gatling lazer reveving) the fucks going on back there

[@orangeismyfavoritecolor]

18:36 What?? This isn’t in the game?? I had this dialogue option appear for me though!

[@RustyguyTx]

Fun fact, did you know the Raider mentioned outside of Novac is also one of the only places that spawns Fallout 3 Raider helmets IE. psychotic waste hound and blast master helmets. The way it works is before you reach Novac save the game then walk straight to the Raider on the bridge. Rinse-and-repeat for whichever you'd like. I discovered this through 100 different playthroughs. For those who are true collectors of rare items LMAO, the waste Hound helmet it's probably the most Mad Max helmet there is in Fallout

[@slools5003]

The skilled glitch can be combined with the store xp glitch to get over 25 level perks in level 50 by leveling up a lot before getting out of goodsprings and re customizing your char

[@gareckthetailor9918]

that slaver quest in 3 is pretty heavy man

[@Blank85289]

I feel the same way, I could never bring myself to do it. The existence of the slavers and there quest has always down right disgusted me. I slaughter them all every play through.

[@jasper_the_ghost]

The best part about the interruptions is that your inputs change the Survivor’s reaction. Y makes them sound confused, B makes them angry or annoyed, A makes them nice and listening, X makes them a bit *sarcastic*…

[@SargentDingelBerry]

I love these videos, I always clean my room to it

[@MediaGiant69]

Just discovered your channel recently and def a great way to drive to and from work. Thanks for the content :)

[@TheFella69]

Sing it brother

[@matthewsquires423]

You can get the holy hand grenades in fallout 2. From a world map encounter. And the original disc copies of fallout 2 allowed you to kill children. Fallout 1 didnt have any children.

[@jonathanbolanos6389]

15:40 also, if you press B/ circle or right, your character will interrupt in a rude way.

[@blackwing4337]

I found that house in Fallout 4 on my first play through because I like to go around everything looking for shit to sell or use and I have about 10 caps at that time from farming zombies for gold watches and selling the ingots and most of my scrap

[@demonlolman9837]

The saddest part of these videos I love so much is that one day there will be no more fun facts

[@Jose_969_]

The absolute malice that Joshua kills Salt-Upon-Wounds with. He unloads the 5 bullets he has left in his .45, then sticks a fresh mag in just so he can unload a 5th bullet. If that doesn't speak to how much The Burned Man really cares about Zion, idk what does.

[@sofaking1627]

I love listening to these when I do "No fast travel" playthroughs.

[@src6339]

There are a few ways to get to golgatha in fallout 2. It's been a while since I played fallout 2 but I think there's at least 3 side quests that take you to it at some point. And you can have it unlocked on your map without doing any of them through dialogue with the right person. But yeah, it is totally missable if you don't explore new reno very much.

[@xBoB2017x]

I'm so used to the "get fucked" at the end of the video I just automatically said it out loud, I was baited

[@JACk79457]

I live for the days that TK’s mantis posts 😩🙏🏼

[@mrsarmale2504]

Babe wake up, new Fallout Fun Fact volume just dropped

[@harryl8283]

Woah last time I watched one of your videos you only had 20,000 subs your videos were amazing then and still are now

[@AstraSerenityTTV]

13:20 was that an xmas mod? or a random event? iv never seen xmas like that in fallout 4

[@nathanskies614]

Homeplate is my favourite player home rn. I used to use Red Rocket but now I much prefer the safety of my little dwelling with everything I need!

[@Rain-73019]

8:05 wanderer was like: the hell's going on out there..

[@chonkychonk]

Yesss, love these vids !

[@pokeric]

The Chosen One claims he’s a sexpert, but if there’s a degree on his wall, I haven’t seen it.

[@arhangelnashail]

You can get both Wired Reflexes and A3-21's plasma rifle. You need to tell Harkness who he is and ask him about what he will do with Zimmer. Then offer to kill Zimmer and you are given A3-21's plasma rifle. Go to Zimmer, tell him Harkness is the android, get Wired Reflexes and kill him and Armitage. In the edn you get both one of the best weapons in the game and the super useful perk.

[@Terrybogard0]

19:30 Me remembering how I walked up to the Khans home they asked me to put away my guns an I accidentally switch it from my Left had to my right hand walked in and they started Attacking me, so I killed them with a horrified face cause I like the Kahn's because I played New Vegas first.

[@biggemboaty]

Wait. The Emily sleeping with Benny dialogue was cut content? I swear to God I've heard her tell me that when I played nv on my 360. There's no way.

[@nilswinkelmann9640]

The picture of the cat in the church is the same as one of the pictures on of the robobrains in the vault in far harbor painted...

[@High-Overlord-Pugula]

When I got the part about the elevator in Diamond City and TK said he had hundreds of hours in Fallout 4 I wondered how many hours I've played it. Steam says I've played Fallout 4 for 3015 hours. Damn that is a lot, never realized how much I've played that game.

[@lolbitthegamer9663]

Did I just watch this whole video in one sitting in the middle of the night? Yes

[@AG1OOI]

A week has passed by bro.

[@christianlowman2698]

I love these videos especially while eating dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets!

[@johnk.7523]

Ah, I really enjoy these vids.

[@liamstorey2260]

i love watching these to go to sleep to :)

[@ScorpionCar]

7:28 - Fallout 4 pulls the same situation through choices with Billy the Kid quest. 30:05 - The kid is a nod to the Adoring Fan as both characters are annoying, are younger than an adult and almost every player wants to take them out. 46:01 - 2655xp for letting Joshua take out Salt-Upon Wounds. 53:09 - Best unmarked location in Fallout 4 (The cat may be nod to how every person in power during historic times always had a cat with them. It's also a nod that cats may at some point take over the world and eradicate all humans on Earth or the skeletons are also a nod to the sayin "Curiously killed the cat". 1:03:39 - Harkness is a nod to the T-1000 terminator. He not only shares the same appearance as the terminator but both "robots" serve in police force and take there job or mission very seriously. Also the whole quest designs around being a detective looking for a android whereas in the Terminator, the cyborg is looking for a human and will use detective skills and methods to find and eliminate the target. Lastly if you let Harkness take out Zimmer and his bodyguard, the scene is a nod as to what happens when Terminators who become sentient reject Skynet and turn on their masters. This why when Skynet sends an infiltration unit out on a mission alone it sets the learn processor to read only hence the line that Sarah Connor says "Doesn't want you to do too much thinking" in which the T800 terminator response with "Nope."

[@c0rpsehands]

"the human spirit remains in the wasteland" goes kinda hard ngl

[@KaPowSplat]

Not sure if this fits for a video but I’ll let you know cause I found it interesting and surprising. In Fallout NV if you kill a merchant with a brahmin but not the brahmin itself the animal will do a specific unique animation. The animation is it putting its head down and sniffing around its owners dead body. Its actually super sad and was the only time I have ever genuinely felt bad during an evil run of any Fallout game.

[@BlueLightningHawk]

Kinda shocked he didn't know about Home Base as a player home ngl.

[@b3nzayizkoolyo]

I found the player home pretty early on my first and only playthrough of Fallout 4. I didn't go back for it though cause after beating the main story, I quit lol

[@cavemanofmemphis6131]

Technically speaking "that gun" if it was chambered in 5.56 it could shoot .223 with little to no modifications; however if it was chambered in .223 it could chamber and fire 5.56 at risk of overpressure and the gun itself exploding. like canonically speaking its reasonable to assume it's a 5.56 chambered pistol or they under power their 5.56 reloads in the Mojave.

[@savior-]

some of my favorite vids on yt

[@herrdoctor2895]

If you crushed Moira's dream just imagine what would happen to the people after fallout 3

[@slools5003]

I dont know if you already mention it, but in fallout 2 guardian gate random encounter, the chosen one is the one who also breaks the water chip xd

[@kupokinzyt]

Oh wow what a great thing to wake up too!

[@_vcctv_]

Bacco addiction shoulda cut endurance and agility as well, I could see perception and charisma tho for sure shoulda been all of them tbh besides strength and luck maybe. Amazing info ty for these vids

[@FueledByCovfefe]

What mod is this that gives dog meat antlers and a red nose? 13:58

[@slools5003]

All that cut content that is actually not cut just left behind is probably the reason why the games crash that much.

[@AlphaSquadronAintSloppy]

Spider mines in Fallout? Sounds like a dream for Terran players lol

[@VeggiePun]

I always go with wild wasteland. It feels like it should be a part of the base game. When I started playing on PC I always pick two trates then use Console Comands for Wild wasteland

[@maybetomorrownewmaker]

Man I forgot how fucked up the Slaver stuff is in Fallout 3, I'm not sure there's a more evil choice in a Fallout game than enslaving a child

[@safename6150]

14:10 No freaking way are you serious. That was the first thing I ever did when I entered I wanted to feel at home since the last place that felt like that was the lucky 38

[@local_alien8477]

16:23 ghoul??? Sing it brother!

[@wyattdavidson5711]

“I agree” “mMmHmM” -sole survivor

[@briannewman5614]

Wishing there was a way to play FO1 &FO2 on consoles like PS & XBOX...

[@johnk.7523]

8:00 damn mini nukes going off

[@IbocC64]

It took you how long to discover home plate? Lol, sorry buddy that is hilarious. You have been missing out. There are 2 elevators to the Mayor's office. You have to go up there as part of your quest to find your son and that is usually when the player learns about buying a place in diamond city for 2000 caps. There are mods that allow you to run a supply line to home plate too so that you can build using all your resources. Otherwise its a completely separate resource pile and kind of a pain in the butt to keep this workbench supplied in addition to settlements. But this place is useful if you are doing a non Minute Man playthrough where you play the game while ignoring Preston completely.

[@quinnthackergaming4103]

I was surprised to hear that he didn’t know about this because I’m on my first play through rn and the first thing that I discovered in diamond city was the elevator to the mayors office. I instantly purchased home plate before even seeing diamond city interior.

[@theonlybilge]

57:45 "Ba ba, ba... Buy Skyrim"
