Note: I should have made clear in the video that in the real Milgram Experiment, the person was not actually shocked. He was an actor, who screamed and banged on a door begging to be let out. The person pushing the button still thought the actor was really being shocked, but was assured that the shock would do no permanent damage.

Oxhorn, you are correct. Nobody was actually given an electrical shock. But here is another interesting fact; The actor in the experiment was not visible to the real subject and at one point was instructed to stop screaming. Then the real subject was instructed to continue to shock him, which of course he did. I have often wondered if the actor was a different gender or age (like a child) how that would have played out. A pretty cruel experiment, and yet so revealing that people still cite it. It has now been declared so unethical by the scientific community as to be banned. I have to wonder if that was the real reason or if it was because the conclusion was just too disturbing. Maybe both.

I think my favourite part of this vault is that you willingly step into the sacrificial chamber, all because you want to know _why._ Sure there’s quest items, but that’s hardly an average reason for someone to enter what is clearly a death trap. You enter that chamber and play along because you, just like the residents, want an explanation for all the death that took place, even if it takes walking into the maw of the beast.

Fun fact, Vault 11 was once the tomb of one of my characters, and I could not escape. Not in a "too stupid to progress" sense, but more the "I broke it" sense. What happened was I did a lot of drugs and accidentally triggered a grenade bouquet. Because of all the drugs I was healing faster than I took damage, but the concussion still knocked me back, and I clipped through the floor and magically popped back into existence under the overseer's desk... without using the Overseer's terminal. There is no secondary terminal under there like there sometimes is in other vaults, and the quest prompt still had me looking for the password, so the robots didn't even trigger. I was just stuck, and couldn't leave because the game autosaved after I regained reality. I thought the situation was too funny and decided to keep to the spirit of the vault, and just started a new game.

Forming communal bonds and obedience towards authorities ARE behaviors that let us survive and dominate the planet. Without them we would not be able to form larger, structured and coordinated groups to overcome greater threats that we can't overcome alone. This is basic herding instinct, and like all others, can, in certain situations works against us and be exploited. But in the end, they are as important as instinct of personal preservation or protecting relatives.

Such a sad life, Nathan and Katherine must have been outcasts within the vault the moment the justice department targeted them. Katherine truly loved her husband. I think at the moment of her death, she was content knowing she was the one to die instead of him & all that she suffered wasn’t in vain. I wish we got to see Nathan’s perspective of these events. Since he was the only one that calls her Kate, it can be lead to believe that he was the one that graffitied the “I hate Kate”, but I feel like it may have been Kate herself who did the graffiti to help her election. Judging by how devoted she was to Nate, Nate must have loved her just as deeply. That’s my take.

I believe the first Overseer knew the truth but was devoted to the experiment and Vault-Tec, it's telling in his parting words. I also think the four committed suicide, that's why the four shots are so quick and there's no sound of pain from anyone you'd predict from a less clean shot, which would happen in a defense scenario. The fifth was holding a gun because he was supposed to also shoot himself. He chooses not to, dropping the gun and leaving the vault.

​@@ntfoperative9432 imo more likely an error of communication than an intentional detail.

I really can't stress how perfectly Obsidian made this vault. It deals out the story so well, in perfectly sized chunks. When you first enter you'll just be confused by the holotape. Then as you explore you find the election posters and it just raises more questions as to why nobody wants to be Overseer. The questions just grow as you get more information, until you find the speech holotape and then it all clicks and you realize how horrible this vault is. And the final twist in the final chamber feels like you just got to the punch line of the darkest joke ever told. It's incredible. Bravo, Obsidian, seriously.

@@yoyoheads I think what makes vault 11 uniquely sickening is that the worst things to happen within weren't at all engineered by Vault Tec - like the one they filled with drug addicts and hid a stash of drugs inside - and even worse, this one is one of the few that DOES hold some scientific merit - if anyone were left to observe the data anyway. It's basically the Stanford Prison Experiment in a more political setup as opposed to just authority/not authority and not called off like Stanford was when things started getting seriously bad.

I felt that the extreme guilt the final survivors felt prior to their suicides wasn't really as much about voting for a sacrifice year after year, but the total slaughter they just took part in, a slaughter that never needed to happen in the first place. Men, women and children all killed because they selfishly didn't want to face the option of they themselves being chosen. And then the crushing realization that it was all a ruse, just became the final straw that they couldn't handle

Iirc vault tec wasnt doing these experiments just for kicks. They knew humanity done goofed big time with the nuclear apocalypse coming, so they used the vaults to study various psychological aspects in order to devise a better society and humanity that wont fall for this. Also, I think it was mentioned or implied somewhere that they were working on a generational ship to a distant star/planet, and the vault tech experiments were a way to test all the ways a group of people in a closed environment can die horribly and how it could be avoided

Morality isn’t and should not be subjective and if you are actively crossing that moral barrier, then you are in the wrong and should be punished, not praised. Evil is unjustifiable. The struggle to deny our natural inclination to depravity is what allows civilization to be possible. The darkness lives within every human’s heart.

It really undermines the entire sequence here, because why did vaultec do it? For the lulz? A villain doesn't have to be morally correct to be compelling, just not be a caricature. It makes the suicide thing at the end a joke instead of a tragedy, because no one, not even Hitler, was doing it for the evulz The reason why the youth today is getting more and more radicalized and right wing parties are rising in popularity is precisely because of the lack of ability to portray opposing viewpoints as anything other than a caricatures and stupid pointless sadists. Then they get exposed to real fascists or whatever, and find out that actually they arent just twirling their moustache, they're pretty good at apologetics and have thought out their philosophy, and the youth is unaware of the counterpoints and arguments against it, and they are vulnerable to it. Not only are moustache twirling cartoon villains boring, they're a missed opportunity to train people in being able to defend their morality and viewpoint

Well technically yes, but this is the player/character disconnect. You as a player sat in the chair because you knew - being aware you were playing a game to uncover a story - that was how the story would be revealed. The writers of the game, however, put in the effort and care to make this exact reason a plausible reason for your _character_ to sit in the chair, and of course the environmental storytelling (16 dead bodies for 16 years) for your character to understand what happened here. If Vault 11 had been in FO3, your objective list would have told you to sit in the chair, or to push a button.

Hold up, the way the first tape sounds. It feels like they all had a gun. Each one had one bullet per gun, hence voice 3, Harry, volunteering to go first. Voice 5, near the end of the tape says, "ready Harry?" To which Harry acknowledges, and as voice 1, with panic in his voice, still tries to save his final comrades, the last survivors of the the Vault 11 catastrophe, Harry shoots himself in the head first, prompting voices 2, 4, and 5 to kill themselves right after, thus the reason the gunshots sound in quick succession. Voice 1 whimpers, for his attempt to save the lives of his fellow survivors failed. He drops the gun he was given to kill himself with and leaves, setting out for the wasteland to see what would await him. That's what it's seems like happened tbh

That was my take away every time I've gone through the vault (which is quite a lot by now as I think vault 11 is easily the best story experience in New Vegas), but on reflection I think oxhorn's interpretation of Voice One doing the killing in self defense could be more on the money. The most telling point is that there's only one gun on the floor when you arrive. All five of them would need their own gun in order to kill themselves that quickly, and Voice One was clearly holding the only gun present as he's the one who drops it afterwards. If he dropped his own, there's no way he'd pick up everyone else's guns on his way out. Plus, the gunshots themselves all sound as though they're all from the same gun as well, very evenly spaced, if there were four people killing themselves the shots would be more unevenly distributed. Personally, I think that makes that final piece of the puzzle (ironically the first part the player sees) all the more poignant. After all the shit that they've gone through, after seeing everyone kill each other, no doubt taking part themselves, after standing up to the Vault's authority and being told it was all just a prank, four of the survivors are entirely willing to kill themselves and a clearly unwilling participant, under the pretense of sacrificing themselves for the greater good and not having to live with the consequences, while the other is willing to kill the others to preserve his own life, again for what he perceives as the greater good. It's like a microcosm of everything that's happened on a much more personal level and with more direct action being taken. A man is actually pulling the trigger on the last people who understand what he's been through, rather than putting a vote in a ballot box. Not only that, but it gives Voice One one more awful act to do before being free to go. Being a bystander to Vault 11 and the subsequent suicides of his fellow survivors is one thing, but forcing the guy to take action to save his own life adds so many more layers to the story it's delicious. The more I think about this interpretation the more I enjoy it tbh. Just when I thought Vault 11 was already the best part of New Vegas it's gotta hit me with some other fantastic nuance.

If a group of people planning to commit suicide holding guns to their heads, First shot would trigger all others to shoot a fraction of a second afterwards. (Are you really going to rehearse an order of suicide? how would you know who shoots 2nd, 3rd, 4th) bang bang, bang, bang (Together) There could be hesitation(Didn't seem like there was a reason to) but it wouldn't be staggered like that (Some shots would overlap). Or maybe it was just bad editing and it just sounds like that^^ but its supposed to be suicide, who knows?

I'm not angry at the choice of Vault 11's inhabitants choosing to sacrifice one of their own. I'm angry at the Justice blocks un-fucking-believeable actions. That they would do such horrible things in the name of petty power and sadistic desires. They betrayed their fellow vault dwellers and even had the GALL to start a rebellion. That they would not take responsibility for their actions and even believed themselves to be so superior that no one would challenge them. That in my opinion is the most horrific thing about this event.

When I started watching Oxhorn's Fallout videos, I was just looking for someone going through the games who wasn't too obnoxious but did a decent job showcasing and/or explaining the lore, because I don't have the time or energy to make older games work on my computer while I'm going through grad school and doing homework, but I CAN have KZfaq on while I draw or sew or whatever. I'm continually blown away by how good a choice Oxhorn was, because I really appreciate the critical thought and analysis that goes into his videos. I really love these lore videos where he goes through a side quest and then explains why he made the choices he did and what he thinks the best choice is. Plus, based on the way he talks about ethics and the good fight etc, I also feel confident he's a good person, which is a nice bonus, and not always guaranteed when you're watching a stranger on the internet play video games for you.

When it comes to siding with a faction, for me it comes down to two things; one within my control, and one outside it. The former is Ethics. The Institute, The Nuka-World raiders and so forth are unethical. The latter, however, is the story response put in front of me by the creator. And so, The institute is demolished at the hands of the Minutemen and the Nuka-World raiders eat hot, fiery lead by my own hand. If it ever gets made, I would dearly love FO6 to focus much more on Vault Tec, and to be fair with the recent statements about wanting a decade long game (something that makes me feel queasy, I'll admit) it seems like they would be an endless mine of content. And as for Vault 11... heartbreaking story. Really, it was. Let's not just say 'raiders are rapists and murderers', eh? The dwellers of V11 seemed capable of much the same behaviour... A bleak thought.

The police were chosen 1st then sent out to mock arrest the prisoners. The students were interviewed after describing how they weren't the people they were in their police roles and were ashamed that they could be such terrible people when told to do so by a higher-up authority. It was so bad that some of the prisoners needed therapy after.
