Over 3 Hours of Useless Fallout: New Vegas Facts

more than half items in NV are Fallout 3 reuse asset. If you search for vault suit in console command, they got Vault 101, Vault 108, Vault 106, and other Fallout 3 vault suits there. Never could be spawned but lying dormant in the database.

[@Surr3alD3sign]

Its bethesda its always just a reused asset and not an easter egg

​@@MaalyGYep I didn't fully realize how many *entire cells* were pretty much lifted one to one until I played TTW and saw them back to back lol

[@randomlyentertaining8287]

I like that the devs added the Freeside Thug recognizing you and running away. It's an obvious reference to the fact that you can walk around in full power armor with a minigun and Raiders with pool cues will think they can take you.

[@YasugoLiehu]

It's still insane to me that so, so, _so much_ content was packed into this game in just _18 months._ It goes to show that, in the right hands, reused assets and shared engines can allow a game to grow far beyond its predecessor in little to no time (take Majora's Mask for example, which only had roughly 14 months for a development cycle). I hope that one day, despite the odds, we might get at least one more Fallout game by Obsidian.

Useful fact #1. Hence why it wasn’t included in this compendium

[@agentcoxack7368]

Man seeing Lily freak out at the artillery zone was kinda hard to watch. It’s tough to see a sweet old grandma like her with PTSD.

[@BLK_MN]

It’s not PTSD, it’s a psychotic break. Nightkin are hardwired to be stealthy, quiet, and aware of potential threats. A bombing range, with explosions loudly going off in all directions, is a stark contrast to the environment they are meant to be in. Lily’s instincts are telling her that she’s in extreme danger, and she should become enraged, unleashing her mutated strength, speed, and ruthlessness. That’s why she does the counting exercise, to prevent “Leo” from taking over with murderous insanity. She’ll enter this state if at low health in combat too, and her “quest” basically allow you to change her potential rage state.

[@justsomepotato6160]

​@@BLK_MNi think she's a pre war citizen (or anything like that im not that into lore too much) she probably heard or remembered how horrifying it is when the nuke blasted the mojave.

[@JB-xl2jc]

​@@BLK_MNIt's most likely both. PTSD is causing her to be in a state of extreme distress when she sees the bombed out town, both because of her history with artillery/nuclear bombings and due to her time as a soldier of the Master forced to destroy innocent towns. She is likely having horrific flashbacks that are setting her towards a psychotic break so she desperately begins employing the PTSD management tactics they teach you in therapy (counting, deep breaths, and when all else fails, medications). Basically I'd say it's both, a PTSD episode aggravating her mental state enough to bring her near to a psychotic break event.

[@BlueFlames094]

My personal favourite thing from New Vegas is where you go to the goodsprings graveyard where you were shot and you crank up your volume, you can hear whispering coming from different graves, I even heard 3 muffled and quiet thuds once, it creeps me out so much and ever since I discovered it, I always take the time when I play the game to go over and just listen to it all. So creepy.

[@manbeforehand]

​@@gothic2fanHUN nah this is legit , I oddly enough found this out by playing the game one time with the volume on max for a while. Me and my buddy thought it was funny because the TV would crackle every time I shot a gun and when people screamed.

My most recent ex girlfriend is not a gamer....at all. She likes to watch people play video games if she finds the game interesting or entertaining. I had to give some context for what I say next to really make sense. About a month or so into our relationship we were jokingly insulting each other when I told her she had Grandma Tiddies. Unable to think of a witty comeback on the spot on account of that playful insult stinging a bit all she could muster was a "Get Fucked¡!¡!" Up to that point she hadn't seen me play Fallout: New Vegas. I laughed a bit and asked her if she had heard that watching someone playing New Vegas. Nope; was something she picked up hearing her Mother and Step Father argue as a Tween/Teenager. I explained to her that I found it humorous because it was a line from one of my all time favorite games. I showed her the clip on KZbin and she asked if I would fire it up and start a new game so she could watch me play. After a while she claimed it was the coolest and most entertaining game she had ever seen. "Get Fucked" became almost like her catchphrase after her seeing it in the context of New Vegas. Hell, she just said it when I was talking to her 2 days ago 🤣🤣🤣

Don't know if it was covered at another point in the video but there are three pieces of evidence you can use against Benny. The first two are mentioned here , the cigarette butts and lights, the third being Manny's note about the Khans working with Benny when they came through novac. Most players won't even go into Manny's apartment, let alone look at his computer and then read through the note but if you do you can get Benny alone , in his room, with all your guns.

[@JinglyJohn]

You can achieve the same thing with three speech checks, or you can get that best result with a combination, not requiring a super high speech check or all evidence

[@ralcogaming7674]

I believe this is also doable with a mixture of the two. Just requiring you to come back after talking to yes man, 2 pieces of evidence and a speech check. I like this because it neither rewards nor punishes different playstyles. It also doesn't make all the evidence mean nothing if you don't have all of it. Because you've convinced the chairmen enough to listen but not enough to outright believe you. It's better than an all or nothing in this situation.

33:41 AFAIK no matter whether a character has a physical body or not, if theres a voice actor, the voice HAS to be assigned to a physical character model. Ron Pearlman has his own model too, as well as in fo3

[@NoActuallyGo-KCUF-Yourself]

There are speakers places that are basically the character for certain dialogue. For examples, when Curtis/Picus is talking on the radio. There is a radio speaker for the other voice to come from, and the monorail has a speaker in its ceiling for its announcements.

I did some digging into Lincoln statues, the only one I could find is in Laramie, WY. It being close proximity to Nevada could mean someone saw the head (which is what the statue basically is) and could have been looking to trade it out west.

"THAT GUN" you referred to the original version as using .223, then pointing out that the new version uses a different caliber 5.56... That is not entirely true. The only difference between those two calipers is the amount of gunpowder. The overall size and shape and diameter of the bullets are identical, and any gun that can shoot one can shoot the other. The most common gun to use this ammo is of course the classic AR-15. So technically, no it does not use a different caliber ammo.

@TKsMantis have you ever used Veronica to clear the speech check and/or lockpick check in Hidden Valley Bunker by getting her as a follower before arriving to Hidden Valley Bunker? She then has a ton of unique dialogue with named NPCs where her relationship with them comes out. Pretty cool, I never knew I could use recruit her to get through the location in no time.

I got a interaction most people don't know. Heck it's not even on any wiki. When you do the quest to save Rex's brain by switching his brain. Instead if you have all the intelligence skills at 100 and a few more, you can do a sting of level100 skill ckecks to save rexes original brain, in essance saving the real rex. ( I don't remember spacific because it was a play through of me trying to max all the skills 5 years ago but i swaer its real )

Hearing the Securitrons say "True to Caesar!" is pretty crazy. I had always hoped there was someway we could keep playing after the Second Battle of Hoover Dam. Would have been amazing to see things change, The Fort burned down and occupied by NCR/Securitrons. All the NCR camps and outposts now occupied by the Legion/Securitrons, Caesar now setting his throne in the Lucky 38 and renaming New Vegas to "New Rome" with Legion banners everywhere. Man it would have been incredible.

The "Party Hat" is probably a reference to Runescape Classic's Party Hat. They were gifted to players for free on an anniversary of the game's launch, and never again afterwards. Within a few years, they became rather rare and began to fetch prices in the millions of gold as the player population boomed and people wanted in on the novelty item. This was back in 2004-5ish and it's likely the developers of New Vegas were aware of this game and its nuances too.

[@evelynsahoe8896]

I always wonder if the devs had any clue that nearly 15 years later people would still be dissecting their game. I've always been a big modder but I decided to play the game vanilla (minus some anti crash stuff) for the first time since 360 the other day. It is beyond impressive to me the vanilla 9 GB install is packed with so much content I'm still finding new stuff 500 hours of playtime later.

I love your Vids Mantis, you showcase many cool things that most people miss and I love seeing other Fallout fans such as yourself making videos of the small details that are really cool and I love seeing other fans showing me stuff that I also missed. For instance I never ever noticed the skill magazine despensers on the strip. Thats also one of the big reasons I love the fallout games. So much stuff that you can easily miss and multiple playthroughs running different builds can be so rewarding for this reason alone.
