Extremely based for regarding Tactics as canon.

I mean to be fair all he covered here was the schism leading to a minority being placed on Airships and then those airships crashing causing the Midwest Brotherhood. From terminal entries in other games (3, NV & 4) we know there was a schism; that the minority were sent to hunt down Super Mutants; that the Western BoS airships were all destroyed; and that there is a Midwest brotherhood. He may have gotten a bit into detail about the airship crash but until something directly contradicts it we have enough facts to piece together that those actual events did happen more or less as depicted in Tactics. If anything it’s based that he included the Super Mutants going to Texas which implies the Brother of Steel game is cannon. 😅

[@mackenzieblair8135]

@@youraveragescotsman7119 And why is the boneyard an uninhabitable wasteland devoid of the infrastructure that made it a bustling population center in the pre-show NCR. I’ve been told it ‘doesn’t matter,’ but it bothers me that writers, with the blessing of Bethesda, chose to mess with pre established canon from games none of them had a part in making. Instead of picking another part of the country or having it set on the East Coast, they made the decision to rewrite what Interplay/Black Isle and Obsidian created. Call me conspiratorial, but it feels like Howard trying to reshape something he has no claim to into something he can call his own. Artists don’t go into museums and touch up Renaissance paintings because they think they can do better… the world that Fallout 1&2 established should be shown the same level of respect.

[@thomasleonardis711]

@@mackenzieblair8135it’s pretty clear that Bethesda is going to use the show to clear the board so to speak. Get rid of the NCR and other strong factions out west so they can eventually set up their own stories in those regions and cherry pick what they want to use while having an excuse to ignore what they don’t. Bet they do the same with New Vegas & Midwest. Player choices from prior games won’t matter because any change that was made will have been undone by the time we see it.

[@mackenzieblair8135]

[@San_Vito]

@@thomasleonardis711 I'm no Bethesda fanboy, I prefer the West Coast setting of Fallout which wasn't Bethesda's. But, it wasn't only their idea that the NCR had to fall. It was also Avellone's idea. It's heavily suggested as a possibility in Lonesome Road, and, to be honest, even though I'm a boomer that grew and up and saw the NCR appear and grow, I think severely hitting the NCR at the very least was the right choice. If the NCR keeps winning the whole setting will just become "NCR: The Game". There must be a balance between Bethesda's "perpetual shady towns" and the setting progressing too much in a way too similar to the real world with a single powerful faction.

[@zaatas]

​@@thomasleonardis711nah, it's not completely destroyed, just locally in some areas. Shady Sands was just one city, while the NCR covered a few states worth of territory. The NCR was never wrote as a faction with a certain future anyways, the possibility of it ending for a number of reasons was always placed clearly on the table for anyone paying attention.

[@thomasleonardis711]

@@zaatas of course it’s in the nature of the games that it was possible for it to fall. And New Vegas did a great job of showing the cracks starting to form. But none of that mattered or caused it to fall. They just nuked it. Off screen. Wiped it away so it didn’t need to be dealt with narratively. And while it’s a multistate faction the implication is that it fell when Shady Sands did. That’s why we see a former ranger as a wastelander. There isn’t any NCR presence in the area at all except for what are essentially raiders. No mention of what the NCR did to help in the wake of the bombing. Just a vault full of refugees and a remnant of the military who seem to not have any command structure beyond the local “warlord”. It’s a massive step back and an obvious subversion for subversions sake. It isn’t good writing.

[@zaatas]

@@thomasleonardis711 I don't understand what you mean by don't have to deal with narratively when the raiders we see in the beginning are actually survivors, part of a cult, led by Moldaver. A big part of the show is a plot centered around the implications bombing Shady Sands had, and how each main character is connected to that event somehow. The show is also heavy into flashbacks, so I imagine season 2 will give some more information about Shady Sands as well. So we will probably see Shady Sands pre crater through someone's pov. I'm not sure what is being subverted. Or what you mean by being subverted for subversions sake. Massive step back for the NCR? Massive step back in your expectations where the NCR should be? I'm just going to say the implication you are picking up on is wrong, the NCR still exists, we only see a few locations locally, and know part of the story as of yet.

Fallout notes on plausible lore and some assumptions being made from the Fallout show. There are many opinions on who or what dropped the initial atomic bombs in 2077. However, it is not necessarily confirmed that Vault Tek dropped the bombs in a direct way, or in a controllable way, even within the Fallout show of 2024. The way of initial bombs dropped, may have occurred is that she (Barb) only made a suggestion they drop the bombs, but the situation between the nations was more complex and could not be that easily manipulated. Yes, the Vault Tek were manipulators, but even they had limits to what they could do, and may had over confidence on what they could do. It is still unknown as to who, (or what) cause the initial dropping of bombs. It should be noted that as seen in Fallout 76 that various types of bombs kept being dropped only a short 25 years later. There are still unverified facts in the Fallout universe.

Im glad to see the renewed interest in Fallout, even if took a mid as hell TV show to achieve it lol

lol@ President Dick Richardson. Might as well have just named him Dick Dickson or President Dick.

[@090giver090]

Dick Johnson, lol. Also IIRC he was canonically being called "President Dick" by some Enclave soldiers in F2 😂

Unfortunately, all of this was for nothing because shady sands (One location) "fEll"

NCR is not just Shady Sands fyi

God I love that they used the “British” AI voice that gets used in so many historical documentaries.

[@T7_H3rbz]

This is actually a KZbin creator OffyD of Game World Narrative

[@Madhattersinjeans]

@@T7_H3rbz He does sound a bit artificial here though. And numerous bad pronounciations in other fictional works does cast doubt on his abilities in general. Lack of polish and attention to detail is becoming noticeable here. Nothing against devin himself he's kind of funny actually, but his voice here is so methodical it does sound exactly like an AI voice.

And with the wave of Todd's hand.... Poof... like it all never mattered.

[@shanewilliams9122]

It did happen. The NCR is still around even with Shady Sands demise. So please stop spreading misinformation.

[@northerner3340]

@@shanewilliams9122 Then where are they? Where is the military? The NCR has (HAD, apparently) a standing army, with working vehicles (Trucks/Vertibirds/Even trains). Where are the farmers in the vast fields necessary to feeding the 10s of thousands of people within just Shady Sands alone? Speaking of Shady Sands, where is it on a map? Because last I checked it wasn't smack in the center of the L.A. "BONEYARD". And how was Hank (the NCR's Osama Bin Laden) able to cross ALL of NCR controlled territory and make it to Vegas? I get that he basically has a jet pack, but does he have a fuckin teleporter too? It's sloppy, 6th grade level trash that doesn't stand up to an iota of rational thought.

[@shanewilliams9122]

@northerner3340 just because you weren't hand held through everything doesn't mean it doesn't exist. We didn't see any NCR because we were in LA. The NCR there has been dealt a horrid blow. We only went to Vegas for 10 seconds. We didn't see up Northern California like San Francisco. Just because you don't see NCR doesn't mean they are wiped out. Season 2 being set in Nevada almost guarantees NCR play a role based on the events of New Vegas. How did Hank sneak through? Because we needed a cool stinger at the end of the season.

[@northerner3340]

@@shanewilliams9122 Season 2 being in Nevada doesn't mean anything of seeing more of the NCR if season 1 is anything to go off of, seeing as it was in the Heart of NCR and we saw next to nothing. And of the "Only 10 seconds" we saw of Vegas were of it in literal ruin in the after credits. Bethesda is incapable of writing a POST-apocalyptic story, only apocalyptic. It's way the state of half the places in FO3-4 don't make sense 200 year AFTER the war (Little Lamplight staying populated by children under 16/Rivet City having a 40 year mirelurk problem and heaps of trash everywhere/Diamond City have 40sq ft of farmland and ever more trash....) But what ever dude, let them write slop, and just keep eating it up.

[@zaatas]

​@@northerner3340You are just a Bethesda hater. You are not critically analyzing anything. The original games were filled with slop writing. It was never a world built by master crafters. So let's just distance ourselves from the idea that the original games were sacred somehow in this regard There would be no discussion about this period without Bethesda building the obscure fan base the games originally had into the juggernaut it is today. There would be no show, or have nearly as many people going back to enjoy the original games and it's lore. It would be a foot note in gaming history, not still actively shaping it. The showrunners and Todd Howard have both gone on the record to state that parts of the NCR still exist. Just because you don't see something, doesn't mean it no longer exists. This is a skill we learn as babies with the game peekaboo. The NCR at it's peak never guarded the border between it's territory with such totality. There would absolutely be places people could sneak through. Also, it's pretty easy to avoid capture when you can fly away in a bullet proof chassis.

[@DalTak]

Is this using A.I. art?

[@Vantud391]

It seems so.

[@DalTak]

@@Vantud391 gross.

[@Colonel_Overkill]

Who cares? It may not be the best by any means but it would also cost thousands to commission art for a video to be used in brief slides like this. The other option would be stills taken from the games that may or may not be relevant. I respect your opinion on not liking AI but dont share it, or see a problem in uses like this at all.

[@carnum1159]

It's not

[@baneofbanes]

No it’s not. It’s the same art step that they’ve been using for years morons.

I don’t know why but I’ve made 2 comments and both have vanished.
