Simpler explanation, they used sci-fi ideas and illustrations from the 1950s and used them for Fallout lore.

Yes, it's specifically a subgenre of a subgenre of scifi, known as atomicpunk (a subgenre of retrofuture, like steampunk).

The developers also postulated that, in this timeline, nobody ever developed the transistors that allowed for tremendous miniaturization of electronics and led to the development of digital technologies of all sorts. (And, without transistors there can be no electric guitars and that means no electric blues, no electric folk music, no boogie-woogie, and therefore no rock-n-roll.) Everything in Fallout is analog, which feeds into the retro-futuristic "Raygun Gothic" vibe. Also, your audio still cuts out.

Yeah that was annoying lol

was going to comment about this.

Initially I was thinking fallout shelter in a vault, but that didn't make sense so I was thinking a cellar instead. But yeah, I agree, most likely a storage area for excess food and stuff inside the vault itself.

@@omegachaos32 In a later episode he refers to it as hiding in a closet, I think was the word he used.

Its a maintenance hatch to access stuff like the irrigation pipes etc.

nah they didn't go that far she was worried itd mess up the gene pool so no penetrative sex was had

I get how hard it'd be to avoid with the vault situation. It makes sense to address. The incest trend in TV needs to stop.

Apparently that shit wasn't even uncommon in the 80s, so long as no one made babies and it didn't go past teenage years, no one said anything. It blew my fucking mind when I found that out. I don't think the current generation could ever be down with that, lmao.

@@DomR1997 Yeah, "cousin stuff" is predominant throughout human history (and I say "cousin stuff" not just to play off the episode, but because historically that's always been considered an entirely different thing compared to anything closer-anything closer has just about always been societally off-limits). We're in quite a unique point in time in recent decades where it's so strongly looked down on. And actually, for most of history, it's not even been an issue of "going past teenage years"-it was pretty much just accepted, even as a full-fledged relationship. If you have an interest in genealogy, you'll quickly see that you barely have to go back more than a few generations to see prolific cousin-cousin relationships between a set of parents/grandparents/etc. Everyone's got them in their very-near genetic history. It's a shock to see just how widespread it was if you have grown up in today's culture!

@yt45204 I'm proud not to live in one of them :D

Yeah, I was having trouble following what was being said by both of them. Think it started when her (incredibly adorable) cat knocked her mic during an Angel reaction. Audio was crap for the rest of that reaction, and I noticed some audio cutouts in the reactions afterwards.

Sorry guys! We fixed it for the next one. Did a lot of testing. I understand it was annoying. Will be better next time!

@@andumc1 also you could try not to fucking cuddle and shit and pay attention to the film instead of each other. even straight couples can behave on camera so maybe respect your viewers by not grossing the fuck out of us and keep your disgusting private life private

Thought my phone was going crazy 😂

❤❤❤❤❤❤

Reminds me of Elle Driver, aka the Bride from Kill Bill.

Close, but not quite. Fallout 76 is the first entry chronologically. Assuming you recognize that game as part of the canon. Aside from that you're correct. Fallout 76 occurs between 2102-2104. Fallout occurs in 2161.

Is this some form of OCD?

Amazon!!! ❤

I heard London mod got axed

Also, in 2 & New Vegas your character is meant to be the grandchild of the main character in the previous game

Where in NV is this mentioned? In 2 you’re the grandchild of the Vault Dweller, but NV doesn’t mention the player character being related to any other previous character.

@@jackromine2942 I didn't say you we're related in New Vegas I said you were born in the wasteland in both two and New Vegas

@@Aeolusdallas sorry for the confusion, I was responding to @mortyigantoj

You slept on Ma June and Barv. Maybe those two old women were pals, but they gave off very old married couple vibes. The GNC and Starship Troopers vibes of Brotherhood of Steel makes it hard not to imagine LGB+ among the ranks. Thankfully, the vast majority of the games aren't so straight. Also, it'd be a spoiler, but I wonder about the relationship between a couple of other women. Maldavar and ______. Still, if it can be debated, it's subtext and bait. Needing explicit words, kiss is annoying.

I feel like their agenda was simply to tell the story of the world and people who inhabit it. After all, even in the current world we live in now, the percentage of people that are identified even as MOSTLY hetero to completely homosexual is still maybe only at about 10% with most people being completely heterosexual. So the chances are really low, and then you have to think about it this way, homosexuality is a privilege that you can have in a world with a menagerie of partners and you having copulation with the same gender won't ruin your chances at furthering your living conditions, as well as that copulation won't affect the survivability of your entire species. Here humanity albeit somewhat relatively plentiful is still on the brink of extinction with creatures that could easily kill humans an ever present danger with other humans as well that want to harm you, and your family is more likely going to be on your side of conflicts as well as having more bodies around allows for more labor to occur thus furthering the society you want to perpetuate. So the show not having too many homosexual things makes sense in this world. Not everything has to have an agenda, sometimes it's all about entertainment and telling the story of the world through its actors in it.

"Viciously straight" touch grass mate XD

Mf wants gay flags in a fucking wasteland 😂

@@CimmerianAssassin If not for gay people, you wouldn't have Fallout, since it was created by a gay man, Tim Cain. What's more, FO2 and New Vegas all were precursors in many aspects when it came to LGBT visibility in video games.

Its dissapointing the fact that a game has to have gay things in it for it to be seen as a good game. Imagine judging a game because it doesnt pander to your sexual preference like it used to. Its a videogame. Who cares? I guess you do lol. This game is just piece of the fallout universe. So if you didnt find your gay stuff here you can in the other games and the idea of being gay still exists in the fallout universe as all these games are cannon. The original idea by developers was to have a babys looks generated off the parents since its their baby. But you cant have a child with 2 males or 2 females. Lack of certain sexual reproduction organs is the problem. The whole reason youre hunting the wastelands is to find your child. It would've cost the development team time and money to create a new path with new voice overs and story and other things gay people might want just for a select few people who are gay. Also you never look for love again in fallout 4 so why would sexual preference have any relevance to you finding your god damn child in this god damn wasteland. So if you have a kid with someone you dont like does that impact how you feel about the kid? If your not a piece of sh*t then you will love that child no matter what because its yours. So because you started the game by having a kid with someone you dont like that means the rest of the game is going to be disappointing. Thats sad.

​@@holyfire11 My comment was written for gay people and allies, highlighting how the original Fallouts and their successor have been championing gay visibility and how in that respect Bethesda's Fallout 4 was a total letdown. I'm sure you'll find a better place for sharing your views than a gay woman's channel...

​​@@holyfire11Good Gracious Get a Grip Gal, even straights who completely ignore gay goodies, consensus the only Fallout worse than Fallout 4, is Fallout 76. It says a lot that you'd pick that hill to die on, here. Probably plenty of us queer, enjoy Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Redemption II. It's captain obvious to say that a game can be great regardless of the sexuality of any sort, in the game or not and more importantly, beside the point. I've been enjoying games that didn't have any sexuality, like Cetipede, released, back in 1980. Go educate, Noob. There's isn't anything wrong with us enjoying and celebrating if we ever get to play an excellent lesbian, gay etc Wild West Game. You'll not ever know what it is to live without media that includes minority people. It's not even like women are a minority, but where's my Davida the Diver? Yes, we are going to notice and discuss when things like Fallout or the Cyberpunk 2077 anime get aggressively straight without even extras gaying up the backdrop. Gays been discussing het washing since the 1940s Hayes code and probably even before that. Tbh, it's easier to find wlw in video games than dive games. You can count those on fingers. Very niche the basically swimmable virtual aquarium gaming genre is. Sega hasn't revived Ecco, either. Subnautica is a thing at least. I'm not happy to see Endless Ocean go SaaS Nintendo lock down, doomed to be lost media. Now I've rambled off topic 😜

​​​​​​@@holyfire11no one said that. Plenty of oblivious hets only rate Fallout 76, below Fallout 4. It says a lot you choosing that hill to - - - on, here. Not hets have been discussing het washing and majority privilege since before we were born. We have a right to lament and celebrate our rep in media. This is an a and b conversation and you can C your way out. My original result took the time to be thoughtful, funny, even if there isn't any talking to you. Congrats, this platform ***ks as much as you do. gj censorship yt

​@@glory1356 they live in a world that was destroyed by nuclear bombs why are you worried Abt gay stuff💀 nobody gaf
