I killed cook cook right after I left new Vegas to go to the bombers i thought he was just some random fiend

“It’s really hard to romanticize evil, when you see the effects evil has on people” -Oxhorn

"They'll put a hell of a good fight" Me: *Kills all of them without even knowing who they are*

pirates have been romanticized and dumbed down to a point where I saw a pirate themed kids show where it said "remeber kids, real pirates never steal!" and that's about 90% of what it means to be a pirate.

Cook-cook is easily one of the most satisfying to kill in the fallout games

Cook Cook and the Fiends are the reason as to why I LOVED slaughtering the raiders in Nuka World and everywhere else pretty much. They deserve no pity and no remorse.

I played new vegas not long after my own experience of sexual assult so this was a very personal quest for me, I remember crying my eyes out and I was unable to tell my family at the time why I was so upset. Thank you for being so respectful Oxhorn, you're a good man and we need more like you.

90 percent of the males in this video are voiced by Liam O'Brien but like hes great

Guy: "Bring Back Cook Cooks Head In Good Condition" Me: *Pulls Out The Fatman* "He'll Be In *VERY* Good Condition"

Since he used to be a part of First Recon, I'm really surprised Boone doesn't have anything to say when it comes to helping Betsy with what happened.

Thank you for talking about RTS and hypersexuality via trauma. It's important for people to recognize those symptoms when someone they love goes through trauma like that.

Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter

The first time I killed the fiends and discovered their heads, I was thinking, "Oh boy, can't wait to meet the NPC that buys heads!"

I was also raped, it was an awful experience. Not to mention I was only nine, i often got upset when speaking to others and even harmed myself during therapy. When I was in therapy i was given a stuffed cat and she was my best friend, she helped me through sleep. They tried to get me to type out my experience but within two months they got a measly two sentences out of me, I couldn't handle it. Now i'm going to go play fallout new vegas and screw over some fiends.

As a survivor of rape when I played this side quest. It made me feel stronger. I'm also glad the Fallout made it a thing even if people don't like talking about it.

Boone shot violet in my game. Her head got mangled and I got a measly 50 caps. Thanks a lot Boone

When i was 7, i never really understood these situations. All i cared about was good loot and mutilation. Now i realize how real this game is.

Honestly cook cook is one of the few in game carecters I go out of my way to kill in ever single playthrough even if I'm roleplaying a pure evil carecter

At first I thought it said Cook-Cook: Therapist of the Mojave and said “Oh, well that’s not so bad!” 😉

I'm Lieutenant Gorobets, First Recon. If you're looking to collect a bounty, you should talk to Major Dhatri.

10 PM: I should probably get to sleep soon. 3 AM:

Funny story: I went on a fiend genocide and killed Cook Cook before I even knew about his story. For some reason I don’t remember him being too difficult. I then randomly found these women with the dialogue option telling them about Cook Cook being dead and didn’t even know what I was talking about.

I wish we could recruit 10 of spades as a temporary companion, it could be an interesting way to go and brutalize cook-cook, a little bit of a redemption story, as in "i'll work to avenge the friend i could not protect"

In my game, Cook Cook turned Dead Dead in about 5 seconds. xD

I'm a rape survivor myself, and it was still a relatively fresh experience for me around the time I started playing fallout new vegas. It was very difficult to play through this part of the game, the way it was portrayed made me feel like I was reliving my own experience. Seeing Betsy act the way she did didn't exactly help me feel better either. However, I played on. I got Betsy help, I killed all the friends, and I especially took my time with Cook Cook. Even with his abhorrent reputation, I didn't feel fear when I confronted him. Killing Cook Cook for the first time was easily one of the most satisfying parts of the game for me, hands down. Putting him down was a coping mechanism in a way. That maybe there will be some kind of justice for what happened to me someday, like there was justice for Betsy and Sarah. Betsy having the ability to get help also persuaded me to get help. Seeing Ten Of Spades reminded me of how my family blamed themselves for "letting me go through that pain" when it wasn't entirely their fault. The thing about the Courier is that they're an outsider in all of this. These quests are entirely optional and there's no requirement to do them to complete the game in any capacity. The Courier's only true incentive is the caps they can earn as a result of this. The fact that the Courier can go deeper than surface level mercenary work and truly bring these people justice and the help they need makes me genuinely happy. Even in a post apocalypse, compassion can still be abundant. But yeah, I'm done going off on a tangent here. This game made me realize that it's okay to be hurt and seek help for what happened to me. Betsy is a more important character than Obsidian ever even realized. Props to them for this absolutely amazing story.

This story is really sad but I love how all the characters care about Betsy and want to help her recover. It's really uplifting that so many people genuinely love her. The game developers handled this really well in my opinion

I think Pretty Sarah would have been a really interesting companion, almost like Cait in Fallout 4

Am I the only one who burned Cook Cook with a flamer to give him a taste of his own medicine?

Me: Hi I am looking for Cook-cook, therapist of the Wasteland Cook-cook: You read the title card incorrectly... let me show you the correction in that.

Pretty Sarah is voiced by Peri Gilpin, who played Roz in Frasier :) She also voiced a few other characters in NV. I love her voice acting and she was amazing on Frasier, one of my favorite characters on that show. Great lady

I remember when I first came across this story in game, ended up gritting my teeth so hard I gave myself a headache. It never ceases to amaze how many genuine reactions this game has gotten out of me.

The first time I did the quest to kill Cook-Cook I killed his Brahmin and he accidentally killed himself lol.

I killed cook cook and didn't know who he was

Looking back at this makes me wanna cry. I rarely, if ever, see a trauma response similar to mine represented in media. I hypersexualized myself as a way to deal with trauma. It kinda made me wonder for a while if my trauma was even valid. Was I faking it? This quest was in the back of my mind for a while, I never truly forgot it, but...I think I needed to see it again. It kinda makes me feel better, and being able to actually help her in the end...it means a lot to me

“But it’s really hard to romanticize evil when you see the impact evil has on people”

It makes me think about how controversial or intense it must've been to make this a legitimate quest or not. Obsidion goes far beyond what Bethesda would that's for sure.

Unfortunately you missed 1 dialog with bounty hunter who spied cook-cook in camp McCarran about the bandit, when we ask him why he won't take cook-cook out he says "I don't want to sacrifice my butthole"

Ranger: Bring Cook-Cook's head back in one piece. *hears about what he's done* *cripples his limbs with a 9 iron* *puts multiple 45-70's through his skull with Ranger Sequoia* Me: I brought back *A* piece. Most satisfying 50 caps I ever earned.

As a paratrooper myself, the family bond in a unit is real.

Cook-Cook: The Rapist of the Mojave - Fallout New Vegas Lore "The Rapist" >video demonetized

I prefer seeing realism in a game, no matter how dark and gritty it may be, as just as there is good, there is evil, and everything in between, and that's what I like to see in my stories, whether it be a movie, a game, or whatever, because it means the creators were not afraid of showing both sides of the coin.

I appreciate your approach to this episode. It was important for me personally. Corporal Betsy’s story especially. Much respect, Ox. 🙂✌️

To someone who has ptsd. I love how careful they are when talking about the subject. Even though these are people surviving a wasteland they still want to help there comrade and friend.

There is word of another settlement that needs your help. Oh wait... I'm not in this universe yet.

1 small quest huge deep story. I love Obsidian.

I’m not normally a person to watch narration videos but I love how your story telling voice just pulls me in and listen to the stories I’ve done but in a seemingly new way. Thanks and I’ll be watching more in the future

I’ve just started this compilation of Oxhorn’s New Vegas and I hope in future episodes he starts speaking out his character dialogue again. Especially with Ulysses. His dialogue is still epic to this day.

Fallout 4 horror: realizing you failed as a father and your son became an total moron. Fallout 4 horror x2: Preston Garvey.

One thing you'll learn about the NCR, they aren't exactly the good guys. They try, but like any government, they make a lot of mistakes.

Oxhorn: I wanted to kill all these fiends. Me: Get 'em Oxhorn!!

Cook Cook is probably one of my favourite characters because of his cut voice lines and the unique window into just how dark and evil the wasteland can truly be

At the beginning of the video, when he said “story’s like this need to be told.” All I could think of was Piper saying “I’d rather know an ugly truth then a sweet lie.”

I killed him at the begining of the game on the way to New Vagas

Watching and playing this mission over recently, I noticed when you use a certain speech option with 10 of Spades he not only speaks perfectly but with a very different tone. It made me wonder if he knows more then he is letting on, there is no supporting evidence that I know of but the way he spoke suggested that he may be faking his speech impediment. We only knew the man through a short couple of quests too. I'm not saying he helped Cook Cook, but I've seen situations where something like this happened and a bystander was involved. A fight is much easier to break up then a rape, it's terrifying in fact. Why would Cook Cook just leave? Pretty Sarah should be proof enough that nobody walks away from Cook Cook without a few burns, however Betsy did. Perhaps I'm reading too much into this but it's possible that 10 of Spades may have witnessed or been present when the act was committed but was to afraid to intervene. Betsy may even be covering for this by altering her story for fear of getting 10 of Spades in trouble. Lastly, I don't remember the exact name, but a form of survivors guilt can result in someone faking an injury or illness to make themselves feel less responsible. His stutter could simply be the result of that incident heck even if he did get knocked out it's still possible, something about the tone and sudden lack of stuttering makes me believe he saw more then he lets on. I will also say that I suffered from a speech impediment when I was little, nothing bad happened and sometimes if I concentrated I could say lines perfectly, useually this took so much focus, that inflection and tone would be lost. Perhaps he has always had this issue, maybe he didn't or maybe a voice actor just got a little lost with the dialogue. I'm just saying it all seems a little suspicious.

I remember my first encounter with cook-cook. I thought he was just a slightly tougher version of a fiend, and so I just melted him into a pile of ash with a laser rifle, since I was busy trying to join the BoS and get that T-45 power drip

I'm glad that Oxhorn is reaching out to other fallout games for his videos.

Killing St. John was so unsatisfying because you want to do so much worse to him... Great writing by Obsidian

Dermott, Saint James and cook-cook are welcome for a vault experience sponsored by the enclave.

I can understand the rage people experience and the desire for revenge after they get abused and/or violated in one way or another. I have strong sympathy for those who live through spouts of depression, rage, guilt or whatever emotions come after their traumatic experience, and after learning about one of my friend's own experiences, I felt beyond angry. I wanted to bash the person's skull in for what they did in their honour after hearing about it. Somebody I knew who almost drowned my brother right in front of me got off too easy. I don't know how he died and I don't rightfully care, but it was still too easy after all he did. Literally tearing apart families, forcing horrendous acts on young and innocent people, getting them hooked and supplied with narcotics, being physically abusive...and I spent years of my life wanting to kill him personally for what he did. And I never got to. Knowing that enrages me on a strong level. The only great thing about him being dead is I now know he can't hurt anyone else ever again. I frankly hope the bastard rots in a shallow grave, not that he deserves one for all he did. He wasn't what I'd call 'human'. Victims of abuse, you're never alone in anything. Y'all should know that at the very least. One day, sooner or later, smile in knowledge that whoever abused you will get their come-upance. They should learn four very important words when they get taken to prison: ''Don't drop the soap.'' They'll get it worse than whatever they did to you. That makes me happy.

They need to make New Vegas Remastered.

6:27 THE TEDDY BEAR IS AN INSTITUTE SPY

The name “I don’t hurt anymore” always brings tears to my eyes.

27:38 _Post-apocalyptic street dance_

Hard to believe that this game is what set the bar for me in terms of an RPG. Sadly no other game has come close to this masterpiece that obsidian created.

Bloody mess screwed me with Violet but hell, slaying these bastards was fun, the pay was just extra.

I know this is an old video OX but honestly this one has a touch of flare that I feel you really brought out the story even in a situation like the one involved. I know its a game but I think people realizing that these stories are honestly everywhere may help them through their own trauma. You brought it down to earth and showed your true character. Awesome job man!

27:40 the juxtaposition of how this game is so derpy and dark at the same time

obsidian's fallout is obviously better, its insanely horrifying, but amazing.

Fallout 4 would be like "Shit this is too hard. just make Cook-Cook just a generic bad guy with a flamethrower and a simple 'go kill this guy' quest"

I just stumbled upon his gang, found his head and was like "Oh cool. What can I do with it?"

I played the fallout games backwards, and it was kinda wild going from Kent Connelly and Codsworth to Cook Cook and Boone.

I don't usually comment, but I noticed you overlooked a few things about Cook-Cook. In addition to his other crimes its also heavily implied he is into bestiality. Cut dialogue has him talk affectionately about his pet brahmin Queenie and if the player kills her during the battle he will rage out and murder his own raiders. The fact that he is mentioned having a horrible smell is another big clue, not to mention the possibility of him being a cannibal as well. Its been a while since I played NV but I'm pretty sure you can find human flesh near his camp. I might be mistaken though. His unwillingness to butcher Queenie may also indicate that a lot of his meals are made from humans. Anyway, I'm glad I killed the sick piece of crap with a Holy Hand Grenade on my Wild Wasteland file.

cook cook has a named pet bramin he loves, if you kill it first he frenzys and kills all his fiend friends.

"Cook-Cook can burn you to a crisp if you get in range" *Proceeds to two-punch Cook-cook

11:53 Notice how both the options have previously been activated. Oxhorn thinking we wouldn't notice!

7:30 this man's mouth makes me very uncomfortable : /

nobody : Captain Parker's mouth when He speaks : 😮

This popped up in my recommended videos and I'm glad I clicked on it. Nice to see someone discuss the more sensitive aspects of New Vegas in a mature and compelling way.

Love how you narrate all of you6 videos. I played New Vegas over 4-5 years ago. As I watch and listen to the stories, it all comes back. It was satisfying, taking out those pieces of trash.

Take a shot every time he says "Betty" instead of "Betsy"

This whole video legit sums up every revenge movie ever. "Could you find out what happened to X" "Sure" *10 Minutes Later* "Oh my GODS I have to get Revenge." "WHERE IS FRANCIS."

I got my inspiration on working for justice from the first meeting with Joshua Graham, aka The Burned Man, whose spiritual qualities exuded repentance..

Sometimes I forget that new vegas is this dark, but then I watch your videos and I remember it all over again. good video.

Watching this made me realize how much tamer Fallout4 is compared to NV.

wait till you tell them that you are the fucking mailman.

Your videos actually gave me more respect for FO:NV and made me give it a second chance, as the first time I played it, I felt it was boring and lost the storytelling that I loved so much about FO3. I frequently come back and watch these playlists every couple months when I want so good storytelling in my life.

As a survivor of rape myself, I shut down during this quest years ago. Watching this video was hard. But I'm glad I did.

I camped out on a ridge with Boone just north of Cook-Cook's hideout. I got low to the ground and watched through my binoculars till nightfall came. Five fiends including the rapist, and three brahmin. I pulled out my silenced .308 and shot the cows dead hoping one of them was his precious Queenie. Almost immediately I began hearing screems from inside the ruined buildings as flames began spewing from the windows. He hadn't noticed us yet and was in a frenzy killing fiends wildly. An explosion erupted that was big enough to send chunks of Queenie all the way to my feet as the sounds of battle finally began to die down. A couple fireballs from an incinerator flew from the building and a spray of flames caught a fleeing fiend, and then it was over. After a couple of minutes we began to creep towards the base, charred body parts lining the dirt at we stalked forward. We reached the ruined building and peaked through the window. There stood Cook-Cook, surrounded by corpses. He limped over to one of the bodies, clearly wounded, and stared at the ground mourning the loss of his Queenie. I crawled through the window, drew my silenced .45 pistol, and fired a round into the dirt by his feet. He turned around quickly, savage anger showing from behind his helmet. And before he could even grab his incinerator I put three rounds in his chest and dropped him to the ground. I then ripped his welding mask off and removed his head. The only left to do before I turned in the bounty was to throw his ass on the fire so there could be nothing left of him to speak of. For Betsy.

The Fallout universe needs to have more REAL life situations. We need plots and characters we can literally hate, hunt and put down & feel good about it. I gotta say, Im loving the way your doing this video. Its like a walk through, Roll player, investigative reporter. You should do this like a fallout investigator and crime documentary producer.

I have to admit you do a really good job with these fallout themed videos. Really well made and thorough!

“Evil isn’t just a lifestyle choice”. Yes.

Nuclearing the winter almost makes you wish for a Mojave patrol

Shoots the flamethrower right out of Cook-Cook's hands. *HE PULLS OUT ANOTHER FLAMETHROWER*

27:40 Dhatri does a little victory dance

with the bit about prates at the end, you were right about the last generation of pirates (Edward Thatch [aka black beard] and Charles Vein) but earlier pirates such as Hornigold were liberator's of impressed crews (slave crews) and even formed a democratic republic, they were merely privateers put out of a job so they turned their eyes to the evils of the sea faring community. hell, they didn't even get stopped until they started taking and liberating slave ships.

I reverse pickpocketed C4 into Saint James and Dermont's inventories. When I got the confession I just had to click once. It felt great.

Im honestly surprised there arent more rapist in a post apocalyptic world

I mean.. It's needed in a post apocolyptic story.. Makes it more emersive.. And very enjoyable to turn raiders into goo as they scream in pain

Great video. My first playthrough of any Fallout game I go super altruistic with the thought that the second playthrough I'll try being evil .... but then I hit the stories like this and decide (every time) that there is no way .... not even in a game that I can let evil like that stand.
