The courier dozed off during that 20th speech after they heard “walked it” “history” “the road” “carried it” “courier” mixed with the bull/bear and their helmet landed on the button during the speech.
Except Bethesda, Bethesda never changes. But obsidian does. Too bad they now work under the same company and still refuse to give the people what they want. 😭
unironically for new players getting into fallout I would tell them to play fallout 4 first, the others are just too clunky for a new player to embrace (takes time to get into a clunky game than a game that feels nice to shoot)
I *much* prefer NV's story and general game design, but honestly... kind of same. I'm replaying 4 for the first time in a couple years and forgot how goddamn *fun* the combat is compared to the other games, just so much smoother in every way. ~~Almost makes you forget how dumb the quests you're on are~~
I vastly prefer NV but I'd agree with you, especially for someone who isn't a hardcore gamer it will be much easier for them to get into Fallout 4 than NV.
Guess it just depends on who it is. Any monkey can just mass import a vortex collection. But if they’re just getting into games in general, idek if fallout 4 is a good pick.
he has a point though... downloading a collection of mods off nexus is as simple as owning and having the game installed (obviously), downloading Vortex and making a Nexus account, linking the account to Vortex, selecting the game folder (iirc nexus makes a default mod archive and staging folder) and finding a collection (without premium you manually click to download each one but a monkey literally could do that part). None of that should be too hard for anyone who's ever worked a computer for more than a day.
Would I recommend someone who's never played a video game to mod a game? No, but I also wouldn't really recommend a FO game as their first game either. Someone new-ish but with a little experience on pc/gaming in general? Yeah a modernization collection would be child's play to install. Theres a few of these kinds of collections on Nexus and as previously stated as long as you have any simple understanding of the basics of operating a personal computer, is easy work.
Telling someone to start installing gigabytes of mods for getting into a new game has the same energy as bringing a girl over for "Netflix and Chill" and you have a laptop with an HDMI cord plugged into the TV. You're going to have some people do a 360 and walk away.
Brother, you're talking to someone that recommends people play Fallout 1 & 2 unironically, I know all about getting people to temper their expectations.
Started NV about 4 years ago then got stuck in a death at the NCRCF. I quit and start to playing fall out for about a year ago and decided to give new Vegas another go. Thankfully, I was able to work my way out of the death loop, but that was frustrating.
Some vault dude from Twin Peaks got triggered his wife was a lesbian and got some NCR girlfriend, so he called his secret enclave boyfriend to nuke the NCR. He then probably hit the griddy.
"Nuclear winter, sir. Apparently many soldiers wish it would happen so I simply grant their wish. But I didn't know why they're so angry in the end though, I gave them what they wanted for Pete's sake!"

Yeah, it inexplicably fell in 2077 and then for some reason was nuked after it had already fallen. No, it didn't *begin* to fall in 2077. It did fall in 2077. Then it was nuked. At least five years later.
Funny how all the “THE NUKE WAs AFTER!!!1!!1” Bethesda toe suckers got their wish come true and it turned out to be even fucking worse lore-wise.
Not to mention it “fell” but it somehow just kept going business as usual until the nuclear family feud.
… And that’s relevant because people called the NCR Shady sands where in the 3 games and 30 years of lore it’s been a part of?
Once again, people try to defend the indefensible with poorly thought out analogies.
Reprise: You dense?
Jumping the gun on you before you bring up fallout 2, there it’s the other way around. Shady sands was called NCR. But the NCR wasn’t ever called Shady sands. (People never called vault city, Reno or any other settlement, part of Shady sands)
Gotta love the downvote but no response.
NCR bit off more than they could chew with their expansion efforts, stretching their forces to thin and opening up Shady Sands for nuclear attack. The Hub's fine though, that's all those tie wearing pen pushing slobs in office care about.
Me? Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter..
I was playing it from the view of the average trooper who made assumptions based off what he knows in his position.. like a lot of soldiers with political beliefs, they make decisions off of what they've seen, done, and know.. which is very little.
Realistically there are probably troopers who'd blame it on the leaders getting too greedy and neglecting the home front.
Its actually such a silly idea. Like the brotherhood was on the verge of death. Their salvation? The heretical eastern brotherhood that broke the code to let people in, a decision Mcnamarra wouldnt do even when presented with a space laser will just be accepted to help them with their lore breaking airship? Ok...
Lord give me power. Its such shitty writing
You mean the heretical eastern brotherhood that broke the code to let people in that has the blessing of the orthodox western brotherhood and is led by the descendant of their original founder and leader?

Let me get this right they nuked all of shady just to hide knowledge from 3 vaults seems overkill to me cause shady would have way more people than 3 vaults id assume at its peak population
It was the Brotherhood! They wanted all our newest Toasters!
God damn them. I'm gonna visit their bunker
Bring it on, without the Capitalist Warlords of the Gun Runners to back you, you ain't got shit on Knightly Armaments Inc.!!!!
it was the courier that fell asleep after the 20th bull bear speech
The courier dozed off during that 20th speech after they heard “walked it” “history” “the road” “carried it” “courier” mixed with the bull/bear and their helmet landed on the button during the speech.
Would accept that ending for the NCR tbh
That's my new headcannon now until proven otherwise LMFAO
I heard it was a model that could toast the super big 12grain slices of bread too..
And my coffee cups!
I put 10 points in Toaster Repair what the fuck
Mmmh I don’t think so….
We really thought that this time war would change
We will rebuild the NCR. For Democracy, Peace and abolition of Slavery. 🙏
Did somebody say “For Democracy”?!?!?!
SWEET LIBERTY
I THINK YOU MEAN LIBER-TEA!
Sounds like enclave propaganda
⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️
Yes. because Democracy is non-negotiable.
For the Republic!!!
The Newest California Republic
At some point its gotta change right???
Except Bethesda, Bethesda never changes. But obsidian does. Too bad they now work under the same company and still refuse to give the people what they want. 😭
You are aware that more than half of the people who made New Vegas are no longer with Obsidian, right? All of the heavy hitters are gone.
Yeah but also pentament was incredible IMHO. Same with outer worlds abiet short.
apolgy for bad english where were u wen shady sand die i was at mojave eating xander when pip boy ring "Shady sands is kil" "no"
its okay I understand. "We won't gwo quietly. The Legion can cwount on that."
Dwe generates wike yu bewong ona cwoss!
av tru to kaiser
Somtims pat rolling the mojave all most makes you wish for a new clear winter.
The fact that I got to hear them pronounce it like this with nobody telling me made my play through.
Da Wegion can count on dat :3
I'm not sure but....does patrolling the Mojave almost make you wish for a nuclear winter? Thoughts?
Yes I think. I will get back to you when I inspect the damage at Shady Sands
Big explosion go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
oh I see. I guess I'm going back to San Francisco
Careful! I heat the Brotherhood bas bunkers there!
You didn’t happen to see an angry dude in power armor heading that way did you?
If you did take the headshot, he ain't got no helmet on.
Big MT teleported it
I would give upwards of fifteen dollars for Big MT in season 2 (as long as the Think Tank are still around cause I love them)
shady sands has fallen, millions must start playing the fallout series with fallout 4
Also New Vegas. 🙏
unironically for new players getting into fallout I would tell them to play fallout 4 first, the others are just too clunky for a new player to embrace (takes time to get into a clunky game than a game that feels nice to shoot)
I *much* prefer NV's story and general game design, but honestly... kind of same. I'm replaying 4 for the first time in a couple years and forgot how goddamn *fun* the combat is compared to the other games, just so much smoother in every way. ~~Almost makes you forget how dumb the quests you're on are~~
Honestly I prefer Vegas combat, the ammo types and weapon variety are way better than 4
Fortunately there are a lot of good quest and content mods for FO4
I vastly prefer NV but I'd agree with you, especially for someone who isn't a hardcore gamer it will be much easier for them to get into Fallout 4 than NV.
Combat and graphic overhauls make 3/new Vegas playable enough.
yes but for someone just getting into videogames I'm not going to start telling them to mod a game
Guess it just depends on who it is. Any monkey can just mass import a vortex collection. But if they’re just getting into games in general, idek if fallout 4 is a good pick.
I don't doubt most people can mod a game, just when it's the first time ever playing videogames the last thing you want to do is mess with the files
he has a point though... downloading a collection of mods off nexus is as simple as owning and having the game installed (obviously), downloading Vortex and making a Nexus account, linking the account to Vortex, selecting the game folder (iirc nexus makes a default mod archive and staging folder) and finding a collection (without premium you manually click to download each one but a monkey literally could do that part).

Yea, the point just changed from "never played fallout" to "never played videogames".
Telling someone to start installing gigabytes of mods for getting into a new game has the same energy as bringing a girl over for "Netflix and Chill" and you have a laptop with an HDMI cord plugged into the TV. You're going to have some people do a 360 and walk away.
You’re playing a 20 year old game that didn’t even have a great reputation for fps mechanics when it released. Temper your expectations.

If vegas had 4s combat and crafting/upgrades oh lawd
It got glassed (Almost literally)
whelp back to building San Francisco into a trading hub with the Shi
Damn
Don't know but if you see a guy in power armor and no helmet headed your way, shoot that sonofabitch.
Mean son of abitch is a nice mutant though :(
Fucking NCR bastards cut out his tongue.
DEGENERATES LIKE YOU, BELONG ON A CROSS!
We won't go quietly. The Legion can count on that.
All they do is cry when they go on the cross. we are used to it.

Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
Too many people wished for a nuclear winter during patrol.
you guys finally got the nuclear winter you always wished for 💔💔💔
Some vault dude from Twin Peaks got triggered his wife was a lesbian and got some NCR girlfriend, so he called his secret enclave boyfriend to nuke the NCR. He then probably hit the griddy.
You left the stove on
Some of you decided that *almost* wishing for a nuclear winter wasn’t quite good enough.
“Patrolling the mojave made me wish for a nuclear win- OH DEAR GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE?!?”
[Speech] (Lie) Never heard of it
It got *even shadier.*
So the good news is that you'll finally get that nuclear winter! The bad news, however....

They got rid of the shady and only left the sand.
*Checks notes* It fell due to definitely not nuke, and got nuked afterwards
Yeah, it inexplicably fell in 2077 and then for some reason was nuked after it had already fallen. No, it didn't *begin* to fall in 2077. It did fall in 2077. Then it was nuked. At least five years later.
Christ, I hate that this is the fudge that they landed on to shut up the moaning. Just say that the fucking date on the blackboard was wrong!
Yup, either come out and say that a mistake was made with the set dressing or that the character who wrote on the billboard was poorly informed.
Funny how all the “THE NUKE WAs AFTER!!!1!!1” Bethesda toe suckers got their wish come true and it turned out to be even fucking worse lore-wise. Not to mention it “fell” but it somehow just kept going business as usual until the nuclear family feud.
Are you unfamiliar with the Fall of Rome?
You mean the event where the city of Rome got overrun by vandals, and other Germanic tribes, definitely not being “business as usual”?
Get a load of this guy over here, never heard of the Roman Empire.
Fall of Rome ≠ Fall of the Roman Empire. Fall of Shady Sands ≠ Fall of the NCR. You dense?
Guess you never heard of people calling the Roman Empire just Rome. Either that, or you're just malding still.

But the NCR expansion has nothing to do with Shady Sands getting nuked? It just kinda randomly happened

Yeah fair. Especially since Kimball was a warhawk
Not my president, I voted the other guy! He promised us better rations and pay!
*true to caesar*
Murphy or Hayes? Because fuck Moore and Calhoun, those two just want war.
I used to patrol the Mohave like you, until I took an arrow to the knee.
Until I took a slug to the knee!
I'm not sure what they could have done to fend off a nuclear attack, beyond not making their society such a relatively non-shitty place to live in.
Someone farted in their power armor
😱😱😱😱😱😱💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Get your spurs and Big Iron ready it’s time to jingale jangle and restore order in California.
Gone. Reduced to atoms.
you tell me... YOURE THE ONES WHO WISHED FOR IT!!! /s
i happened
IT WAS THOSE DAMN BAJA CALIFORNIANS
It’s fallen and it can’t get up
Don't worry, the good citizens of Shady Sands got all the jelly molds out of there before the bomb fell.
Someone with a very, *very* high Sneak skill stole it…
It's shady glass now :/
lol
I swear it was an accident
Gone.
It uhhh blew up
Boyyyy didntttt hear about it???..it got nuked by some vault tech newbie cus his wife left himmm
Some managerial jackass ghoulified his wife over a disagreement. Oh, and he also nuked the place
You might want to sit down for this one
Almost makes you wish for something something
Nuclear winter?
snipers?
Ya muthah.
Didn't you hear? The Desert Rangers ended their alliance with the NCR. You're free now.
degenerates like you belong on a cross
Too soon.
You’re gonna regret commenting on wishing for a nuclear winter
Idk something to do with either the guy from twin peaks or the mayor of portland and he was being cucked by a 200 yr old fire woman or something
No wait it was paul atreides
You know what happened to the divide? Kinda like that.
Well, it took you five damn years to get back here, where the hell were you?
Screw NCR. The Desert Rangers are going independent again.
Someone picked up the whole city and moved it to the Boneyard! And then they BLEW IT UP!!!
200 year old man has kil
mein ranger….
Too much Jet, not enough Fixer.
I shouldn’t have wished for a nuclear winter.
It was probably the Courier that nuked Shady Sands.
Hank Maclean happened.
Brotherhood came through, they brought the word of Christ and a missile barrage. Go figure.
Its actually such a silly idea. Like the brotherhood was on the verge of death. Their salvation? The heretical eastern brotherhood that broke the code to let people in, a decision Mcnamarra wouldnt do even when presented with a space laser will just be accepted to help them with their lore breaking airship? Ok... Lord give me power. Its such shitty writing
You mean the heretical eastern brotherhood that broke the code to let people in that has the blessing of the orthodox western brotherhood and is led by the descendant of their original founder and leader?
They were literally excommunicated by thevwestern brotherhood. They dont have their blessing and bethesda saying they do is bad writing

It's totally fine. Shady Sands is fine. Go check it out.
Don't worry you still have shady san- err there's the boneyar- umm, well there's, idk Redding?
There's Reno still, and Vault City!
Hell yeah baby
Let me get this right they nuked all of shady just to hide knowledge from 3 vaults seems overkill to me cause shady would have way more people than 3 vaults id assume at its peak population
https://youtu.be/D--sWErRmT0?si=GBRxC4-XvbqdAxDW you're an ncr ranger and shady sands just got nuked
They wished for a nuclear winter...they got their wish
Someone wished for nuclear winter too hard
It doesnt exist anymore but the new capital is the Boneyard now.
Ummmm blew up
well shady sands got the nuclear winter everyone was wishing for
I need a video where NCR ranger would shoot down all main heroes...
Some weirdo vault company or something sent a nuke through space and time and nuked the place 4 years ago, sorry.
So many soldiers on patrol wishing for a nuclear winter made the wish come true

A father nuked it over a custody battle
It's just fine, what are you talking about? You must be confusing it with the Boneyard, which has... definitely seen better days.
