What is a cult?

@@jonathanbaker4361 The same as religion but without millennia of social indoctrination.

@@jonathanbaker4361 The same as religion but when a cult takes money from you, they dont make it a tax.

A person asks what a cult is, and got 2 cringe responses. Truely, the question of all time.

In all fairness, it didn't seem like he had seen any kind of tech before, besides from the Power Armor wich he cherish and idealizes so much since he got saved by a Knight wearing it as a kid. But most importantly. He is just being silly and was mad happy inside that vault since it was the first time he got the "feeling" of what a true home means and was just enjoying the moment while being truly safe and happy for the first time in his life. Prob his 1st tv, popcorn and everything that was inside that room including the warm shower and bathrobes. So he was basically a lil guy on their first Christmas getting all of these nice things. He even had a sex offer not long ago with Lucy. The dude was literally lost on that screen but it was more than just a waterfall for him i am guessing. That was his moment. But still pretty funny how silly he was.

I thought he was being hypnotized by it but now that you mention it I think he’s never seen anything like tv or the waterfall and he let his imagination take him somewhere beyond that waterfall. When I was growing up Spyro the dragon was new and I remember going to the border of the level after finishing everything and looking at the mountains in the horizon that I would I would never be able to get to but I’d just look at them for long periods of time because my imagination filled in what could possibly be beyond. Now I’m 32 and I know how video games work just a bit better so I know there was nothing beyond it and the magic is gone, but maybe not for someone that grew up in a wasteland.

Well, squire and lore in the same sentence don't make any sense tbh.

@@BruxoBanido elaborate

lorewise aren't squires people born into the brotherhood? which makes them highly valuable because they are sons and daughters of members of the brotherhood and are educated from an early age to become scribes, knights or lancers So lorewise Maximus should have been an initiate and should have had an assigned paladin since he joined the brotherhood

@123Juniiorr In his case, he was a child when he was recruited. I know that the lore doesn't make clear what kind of higher education the brotherhood facilitates, if any, but my guess is that some of his rank would not be qualified for it.

@@123Juniiorr eh, sources are really weird. From fallout 3 (from recollection), a lot of the squires/new recruits actually come from the Pitt as it was being saved (or, failed to be saved) by the BOS in that game. In fallout 4, the BOS both has recruits from the wasteland, and people who were born into the brotherhood. Fallout 1, 2 and New Vegas had their BOS only recruit people who are born into the Brotherhood. Fallout tactics my beloved conscripts random wasters :>>>>

Yeah Str/Agi 7, I was expecting Endurance to be a lot higher for this melee build.

so that explains Knight Titus couldn't beat a Yao Guai...his stats were trash!

He’s very lucky throughout the show but it’s not like he’s completely free of consequence. He has to make a lot of hard choices and mistakes-and in the end of S1 he has lost Lucy. The rewards of being lucky are almost conflicting with what he actually wants.

Sarah Lyons made the whole faction look competent. Everyone else cant do that.

Some of the elders are pretty clever

Can we normalize being an Idiot?😅

No not everyone is retarded 😂

In fact, the writer did that on purpose to his character to show representation some of us(players) who actually an idiot in role playing and i like it.

It will easily be his conflict too tho. he will become a paladin but relinquish the armor because the elder will want loyalty above his moral restraint.

@@TheVoltdenatsu So he’ll be making a big choice. To bring the wasteland to its knees with the Brotherhood that has an unlimited power source, or to let go of power and prevent them from doing so.

I’m sure he’ll be important on the NCR resurgence

I was hating on this character for like 3-4 episodes until I realised he wasn’t bad. Man just didn’t really have anyone to teach him how to be good. The episodes in Vault 81 really showed how childish he was, but it wasn’t his fault. Lucy is learning how to survive the real world (wasteland) while Max is learning about morality. Also, I thought that he had really put the razor on his friend’s boot but then it was shown otherwise

​@mrkoala2824 you know i have a feeling he didnt kill knight titus either... and that may come back to bite him later.

For any of the show's faults, that is an unavoidable comparison. And I can say without a doubt Maximus and Lucy are way way way better characters than Finn & Ray.

Finn and Rey deserve better The latter is quite likable in Lego Skywalker saga and a special where she actually have went through some stress with Porgs steal her lightsaber

Goosey.

Goodbye goosey

RIP Fancy Lads Snack Cakes. You're too tasty for the wasteland

God saw those Sugar Bombs and told Maximus to delete them. Maximus did not understand what compelled him to do it, but it hurt us all the same.

He's a selfish coward and an idiot. There's a whole laundry list but the biggest examples that bugged me were him needing to be talked out of dooming Vault 4 to death and how quickly he sells out Lucy in the end just to save his own skin.

Same goes for vault 81s mole rat quest where the doctor tells you to give the kid the cure, and has no regards for your well being if you so happen to be infected. Plus that's a whooping one lvl of health which in survival can make a huge difference.
