Psykers | Fallout Lore

[@Synonymous101]

A little overdue, but hopefully worth the wait! Notes: Goris merely has an intuitive feeling, also known as "animal instinct" when his clan is destroyed, which to me doesn't make him a Psyker. Keeng Rat is a rat that communicates with other rats and thanks to the FEV is able to speak to humans, once again not a Psyker. Also, all protagonists can be considered Psykers with the animal friend perk, which is pretty cool! As for Oswald bringing dead feral ghouls back to life, this is something all glowing ghouls can do and is more of a physical side effect of becoming a glowing one, rather than a psychic ability, but feel free to try and change my mind, enjoy! :D

There was also the wheelchair with robobrain tracks that I think would have looked cooler.

@@SlightlyInactive Yeah. In fact, I really like the idea of a Fallout 76 style game taking place on the west coast, shortly after the Great War. That'd be a very interesting concept. Perhaps (if they wanted a new area) they could make it in post-war Washington (state) or something.

[@Buttsmcgee069]

Ironically, you could justify the inclusion of more Psykers than you could Supermutants. Yet one is forgotten by most, and the other is everywhere.

[@Thy_Boss]

But it's probably also an idea, like the weird-tales supernatural parts or space-alien elements, that's better hinted at than fully explored. These suggestions of other paranormal aspects beyond the core Atomic-Age-mad-science of the series tend to be used more effectively at the fringes, or else you end up with something as disappointing as _Mothership Zeta._ Fans at large seem to have forgotten the principle of "less is more" and where it applies, but that's a bigger topic.

no. pump the breaks. Bethesda's BS take on Vault tec is just that, BS. Vault Tec was originally only suppose to do commonality experiments that wasnt to really harm its subjects. The water chip thing was a shipping error though. Experiments on sound waves, plants, cryo, and diseases. sure. But, an experiment to kill its own members by vote, a cloning vault, a waring vault, and a vault full of drug addicts? uhhh. thats fucking stupid. and its because of this that people now think Vault Tec started the fucking nuclear war.

@@kellerweskier7214 actually it was confirmed valt tec launched the first nuke, and at this point Fallout is morr Bethesda's game then it is interplay's. So they can do what they want with Fallout despite what the first 2 might have set in place. Plus 76 takes place before EVERYTHING so who's to say none of the stuff they add didn't happen? Can't really get mad at 76 for doing its own thing when we really don't have in game confirmation of things going down the way they did.

Finally been waiting for new ones

[@kyreiter7587]

In regard to Nightkin having dialogue about companions, maybe the Nightkin at Jacobstown have this ability. I’m not sure; I haven’t tried myself. Great video by the way! I’ve been loving your Lore videos

[@unoriginalperson72]

You could always go through the voicelines in the game files to find the nightkin lines.

[@Peyto23]

This video proves the theory that the world of the elder scrolls is the future of the fallout world

[@exterminator1776]

it would be interesting if we could become a psyker of some kind

[@thatguylego7667]

I want to see Bethesda bring back this group into the next fallout but knowing what they did with supermutants it might be the best for them to just stay in the old games.

[@donkeyboi9863]

I had already predicted that your vid would be great, but the subject matter... I didn't see that coming!

[@admiralfishchipsman573]

I always thought the chosen one was just a schizo

[@ChaoticSalad]

The character you play is a Psyker: they can see into the future, explaining the save/load function.

[@lynxfirenze4994]

Honestly I love magic in Fallout, it's just kinda there. Not really common at all and usually the result of FEV (Honestly I love FEV too, it's just the 'a wizard did it' of Fallout) but it's undeniably there. Allows for freaky moments in an otherwise "mundane" world.

[@HappyBeezerStudios]

In a world where aliens and eldritch beings are true, magic isn't far iff.

[@Xyoni_htklv]

11:14 I love that voice acting.

[@BJRaco]

I would add Beastlords from Fallout Tactics to the psykers' list if Fallout Tactics was considered cannon.

[@Jack-bv1re]

Great video synonymous! Loving these lore videos!

[@Pinefr0st]

I wonder if Mama Murphy is related to Hakunen. Their abilities are activated so similarly there could be a connection.

[@jonathanhathaway54]

Hey, great video! I've always loved the parkers in the series and wanted to do a bunch of builds for them and have one more addition! Jared, the raider leader at Corvega is also a psycker through Chen's and used his powers to find the last of the minutemen and mama Murphy, it's how they were able to track them and why the did it so far You can see this in his computer notes

[@Synonymous101]

Nice! Had no idea he was one 😅

[@jonathanhathaway54]

@@Synonymous101 Yeah, it was a surprise when I first learned it. Honestly I wish that Bethesda implemented small touches like this more into the fights since so many of the raiders have great stories. Plus I just want to fight a psyker and old women and children aren't really challenges XP.

[@TheTotallyRealXiJinping]

I always love shooting up with Mama Murphy; she always ODs on me like a lightweight

[@SirLazriel]

Fallout 1 and 2, and even tactics a little bit had such amazing and in depth worlds. All the small details and interesting characters. NV and 3 really solidified the factions and their dynamic whereas 4 and 76 polished the system and combat. If only we could bring together all the developers from all the games and just have them make one perfect fallout with a modern engine and modding capabilities; it would be amazing.

[@rolandyamel6376]

I think the interesting thing is that with Mama Murphy she says you need to find your son this would completely blow out of the water any theories that the hero of fallout 4 is a synth because she doesn't tell you that you were created in a lab.

[@superbad8008]

Fallout is such a great blend of science fiction and mysticism. This all isn’t even mentioning the various cybernetic or supernatural enhancements the player can get, like getting an ant-based enhancement serum from a scientist or becoming a cyborg in New Vegas.

[@justsomecryptidwithinterne9873]

I would like to see some lore on the tribals of Fallout Nv

[@masterzoroark6664]

I really like the psykers to be a small thing in Fallout, a blink and you'll miss it. Mainly because as ridiculous and crazy as Fallout stories are they are still more or less grounded.

[@rickyboughen]

i just found your channel and man i love your lore vids thank you and keep up the awsome work please

[@Synonymous101]

Welcome aboard! 😁👍

[@slovnicurling9808]

Now when I think about it Red Lucy from Thorn (new vegas) never shares the secret how the animals are tamed. I know she is rasing them from eggs but still. I would trust a crododile even if I raided it.

[@ashen9381]

Psykers are good at channeling the magic of the w- oh wrong series.

[@placeholdername3818]

I think even the player character can develop psychic powers via Animal Friends perks. Allowing you to Tame Animals within seconds.

[@Synonymous101]

Already said in the pinned comment, thanks for sharing though! 😁👍

[@rabbidrick7533]

Awesome video!! I wish we could get some mole miners lore some day from Bethesda so you could cover it!!

[@McSenkel]

I really hope in next Fallout we can get some paranormal skills/mechanics.

[@MistahBryan]

"Ghouls, Ghosts and Gary's" There's a list I thought I'd never hear :)

Gary?

I remember thinking that mama murphy gave a clue that she didnt NEED the chems, I forget what it was she had said. Pretty sure she just wanted a fix lol.

[@MrWorstNews]

Let's make a petition for Bethesda to make a "Pre War" Fallout game XD

[@noahdean9685]

That would be cool it would be a prequel game though.
