11:03 "Hey there boy." "Your life is forfeit. You will rue the day you trusted me. Hail Caesar." "I love you, too, buddy"

In the official Fallout 3 guide it says the raider thought Lincoln was some kind of deity!

Regulators = DC Minutemen

"Oasis...but that is a story for another day" Oxhorn is the Storyteller confirmed

Ox: "I found the only green things in Fallout 3 here in this graveyard." Me: *looks at sky*

Ah the Regulators. Made killing the Talon Company fools so much fun.

Always joined the Regulators, loved turning in 100 fingers to get an ass load of caps...

I think that while the Regulators can't prove each finger you bring is from someone evil, they find you to be trustworthy. This would be one reason why your level and karma have to reach a certain amount- talented enough to destroy evil, honorable enough to bring one finger from each villain. I wish that there were side quests about this, though. Imagine having to validate somebody's kills, hunt down a traitor, recruit new members or even just take on more bounties!

8:46 he says booze in a magical way

"No green in sight" Yeah, except everything has a green tint.

I took the Lawbringer & the Contract Killer perk...for the moment I’m playing a character that does some good and bad

Regulator Duster may not offer the best protection, but IIRC, it is hands down the coolest looking outfit in the game.

I think the Lincoln shrine may have been left by the Temple of the Union or one of its supporters while they were staying there. They are one of the few groups in the wasteland who know who he is and worship him like a god. They even have a quest where they ask you to help them retake the Lincoln Memorial from the Slavers so that they can fix his statue.

Arlington house was just sort of a lazy mistake in the creation of Fallout 3. They didn't bother to make it like Lee's home and just stuck a generic family home there.

REGULATOOORS MOUNT UP!

Maybe the people living in the home were caretakers of the cemetery, and they also had a kid

I remember taking both perks on my kill everyone run. Got a TON of money.

Can someone explain what the luck bobble head means when it says, “There’s only one way to give 110%” ?

I've had Fallout for a year and never played it, but your channel got me into it and Im now like 15 hours into it. The way you talk about Fallout makes it feel so special.

Looks like a perfect spot for a flower den

WE LOVE YOU OXHORN

14:22 Nothing, right, right... (under breath) cannibals.

I visited Arlington a few years ago. It is quite overwhelming and both sad and beautiful.

Oh shit. Honest Hearts...that means Joshua Graham...that means THE SURVIVALIST! Hell yes!

What if the regulators are paid by the Institute? The world may never know

There's an easy way to understand the difference between right/left fingers. They will always point away from each other (left will point left, right will point right.

Thank you for covering Arlington Oxhorn. It is truly a sobering place... having two of my fellow cavalrymen buried there it holds alot of personal emotions for me. Everytime I wander the wasteland I stop by and pay my digital respects to our honored dead.

19:25 Reminds me of a line from Knights of the Old Republic. Q: "Why pay for the gaffi sticks? Why not their heads?" A: "Which would you rather have dumped on your office floor?"

Do lore about the Talking Tree. He seems very interesting.

Actually, the union original asked General Lee to lead their army. He refused solely because his family lived in the south. He had no immediate issue with Lincoln.

1) there is cameras in the wasteland they can send in an scout for the target photograph him or if they are really sharp memorize the shape of their hands or ears & draw it 2) there is absolutely ways to distinguish a left from a right finger by how the joints flex for one the shape of the nail mainly.

"a shrine to... Abraham Lincoln?!" *Boisterous oxhorn laughter*

Maybe one day, he could talk about mama Murphy ( but I bet ox already has plans ) maybe one day though, maybe one day

You know, honestly? I'd played this game for years and it didn't occur to me to look into the Regulators. This was fun to learn about and I wanna go play this lovely game all over again now. :3

For Fallout 3 I'd love to see a video on Clover. You have to be evil to get her to be your companion but I'd be interested in knowing about her.

The first time I ever went to Washington DC was in 2008, in October. The whole city was plastered with Fallout 3 advertisements, and the Metro stops (many of which from the game I actually ended up stopping at and taking advantage of) had lifesize stickers of Brotherhood Paladins in power armor affixed to pillars around the escalators. Seeing all this I was a bit shocked, I didn’t have an Xbox 360 or PS3 at the time so I didn’t get the significance of the advertisements. Seeing all these wonderful historical places in the city and then turning around about 2 months after that and getting an Xbox and playing Fallout 3 was so interesting, the synchronicity of the design of the virtual city that lay in ruins and the modern real life equivalent was amazing. I’ll never forget that week in Washington, being caught up in some of the coolest history in the world as well as one of the most interesting media campaigns ever was an experience I’ll never forget. I love this game, thank you Ox for exploring it so much, so well.

Joined both, one on each run. My good karma is a ballistic weapon regulator, my evil karma is an energy weapons littlehorn contractor and my neutral is a melee weapons neutral.

In my game I first saw them one day in-front of rivet city , their orders were to kill me but the rivet city guards helped me kill them

Fun Fact: Billy the Kid started out as a member of a gang of vigilantes committed to fighting back against an alliance of corrupt ranch owners and lawmen called The House. Billy and his gang called themselves, 'The Regulators.'

Man, I love how you interact with the characters in your videos! Keep it up.

I thought that said "Argonian Cemetery" XD

Do Vault City please!

I was surprised to see this in my feed (in a good way of course) and even more so when I saw that you got the perk in exactly the same area as myself waaaaay back in 2008! That just made my darn day!

There is actually a good reason for the flowers growing from the military graves I read somewhere online that the are in tribute to Bethesda's employees ancestors who fought and died in different wars I do believe one was for a ww1 and the others where for ww2 soldier and ancestors of Bethesda employees who didn't make it home and the graves are close to the real areas in the real life centenary. The one alone was the ww1 soldier and the two that were close were for the two fallen ww2 soldier. If this is true it's a nice and honorable touch to a game shrouded in bleak stories. P.S. god bless the fallen soldier who fought and died for our rights and freedoms we have and guide the present and future soldiers who will come that they make it back safe and sound.

Please do a video on rockopolis

You can kind of tell the difference between a left and right index finger because they are slightly curved And they only accept left index fingers i think

10:44 Oxhorn: But thats a video for another day Me: (Having flash backs of the storyteller)

Loved getting the regulator perk, it made it so easy to get a shit ton of caps real early in the game Love the story Oxhorn! Cant wait for Mothership Zeta and the upcoming Honest Hearts series!

Hey Oxhorn, can't wait to see you (or hear you) in Fallout 5!

Do the full story of the Oasis. Where plants and trees grow in the Capital Wasteland.

I love the Junders Plunkett bounty, and his unique spiked knuckles. I just wish they made a corresponding encounter for Contract Killers. But I guess my real issue is these perks being made available as late as level 14. By then you've accrued all the wealth you could ask for, and there are so many good perks available, and more to come as your level grows higher. Something tells me that if Fallout 3 were ever remade by Bethesda, the Regulators and Littlehorn would be a source of radiant bounty quests, rather than the Finger and Ear business.

I really enjoy your lore videos; so well educated about RL sites. It's really refreshing.

I wish they had this kind of karma system in Fallout 4

Hey Ox, do you think it's possible that those flowers in the cemetery were plastic? I've seen quite a few plastic flowers in cemeteries since they don't die.

"How can you tell the difference between a left ear and a right ear?" Have..you NEVER seen ears before?

You know the New Vegas devs had that exact discussion about the fingers and ears thing. That's why the NCR wants heads. It's why mangling the head is possible, they were already thinking about how silly Fallout 3's fingers and ears were.

Ahh i was just watching your fallout 4 lores so i wanted to stop by btw i love your vids ox

Of all the places to make a video including Robert E Lee you choose now... lol

Hey oxhorn I just want to say that I think you're channel is one of the few on KZfaq that really deserves the patreon on money you put a lot of work into your Videos and a lot of time can you actually listen to your viewers not to mention you do a podcast where you talk to them and answer questions . Just want to say I think you're awesome man keep it up I just had to say that because I feel like too many people have patreon and just say thank you and that they don't actually have any responsibility to the person giving the money I feel like you feel that responsibility and you definitely follow through with what you say

Hi Oxhorn I have been watching your videos since 100k subs!You really helped me in the games fallout 3 and 4 your my favorite KZfaqr and I really admire the way you talk in your fallout lore or any lore matter of fact but your a really cool guy and you should keep doing what you are doing.

Did he just... 10:45

Speaking of green I'd love to see an oasis video

See, my character did it different. They thought it was too inconvenient to collect thingers, so they made sure to bring the heads. Sure, there were some raised eyebrows when they entered Rivet city with 100 decomposing heads strapped to their waist, and yeah, dad couldn't help but comment, but on the bright side, it did look really sick. The Tenpenny residents were especially impressed.

The irony of saying that they didn't want to turn a military cemetary into a battleground is on par with the "You cant fight here: this is the war room!" Scene from Dr Strangelove.

What kind of fucking bounty hunter kills someone for 5 caps????

Dear oxhorn wouldn't it be cool if there was a ghoul who was the tomb gaurd for the tomb of the unknown soldier here . that would be so awesome . I'm sad they didn't include it .love the vid besides that. have s great day .

Arlington Cemetery. For a while I didn't know it was in Fallout 3. When I found it, it became my favorite location. My little piece of peace in the wasteland.

Strangely enough, ive never gotten the Lawbringer perk. Every visit to Arlington house was quiet and mysterious. I doubt Plunket would idolize Abe Lincoln, but the most likely thing would be the remainders of a member of The Temple of the Union, perhaps Hannibal Hamlin himself before he officially founded the thing. Just maybe, the place inspired him. Otherwise, its just a fun little mystery. As much as i love the little Wall-e moment with the few flowers in the wasteland appearing at the cemetery, could they just be plastic flowers that somehow survived the ages? Best brain candy i have for ya Oxhorn, keep being awesome.

I stayed neutral for this one. But it is good to know how it works. Am curious about how this works in New Vegas, but Honest Hearts!! Man that was a great DLC. I look forward to going back!

Robert E Lee is related to my history teacher who is teaching us about the revolutionary war.

Oxhorn, about that picture and shrine of Lincoln in the house, I googled Abe Lincoln and it said that he was a war veteran of the Indian wars back in 1832. He served as a Captain and a Private in the Illinois militia during the Black Hawk wars. Junders Plunkett, him being a raider and a proponent of violence of course, must have idolized him for that.

Great video as always, especially since I've just started to play Fallout 3 again few days ago. Could you please consider doing a video about Agatha and her quest as well as Vault 92? In my opinion the story of Vault 92 is pretty good (+ the loot there is pretty nice) and I'd love to see a video about this location from you.

Where can you find a cowboy duster in New Vegas?

i smacked myself so hard when he said lucas simms is a regulators...like how did i miss that

19:32 when I played New Vegas Bounties and asked the question “why not collect heads?” Someguy (that’s the owner of the NV mod) said “are you a psychopath?”

My favorite line from the movie A Serious Man really applies to the whole finger collecting business: "Please. Accept the mystery."

I don't think they care about how many fingers you bring in, the benefactor has put this in his plan that he would gladly pay 50 to 100 caps per villain, he saves quite a bit by only expressing the need for 1 finger (and if pinkys and thumbs are not accepted, that still a huge saving for the benefactor) As long as the watchers continue to see you doing your part, keeping a high karma, then if you could want (possible) to cheat for a few more caps they would let it slide imo. Roll up with a big bag of thirty or forty misc fingers, pay me my money. They probably wouldn't care if you killed 10 or 40 villains, point is they know you are killing villains for their good weakened elder God battling the forces of Chaos trying to enter the world. FO5 the warp will finally open.

OXHORN I found a regulator in my fallout 4 settlement

This is what I like of what a group of people do in the Capital Wasteland. People try to reform they own variant of law enforcement, especially the Regulators.

You can definitely tell left and right index fingers apart. Really looking forward to Honest Hearts videos, especially Randall 'The Survivalist' Clark's story

And soon, Oxhorn shall be Legion! Ave, true to Caesar! (p.s it's pronounced Ah-way & k-I-sar. That's because the Legion uses Roman latin pronunciation, which means V is pronounced as a W and C as a K, whilst in church latin they changed the pronunciation over time to what it looks and sounds like today.)

Isn't it possible that the Regulators could be funded by the Enclave? I mean they are pretty short staffed and it would definitely help them get rid of the degenerates that could cause a problem during their version of Project Purity.

Another great video. And since you mentioned morality, what were some of the hardest moral choices you've experience in the fallout universe? for me harold and his quest from fallout 3 was the most difficult one. or at least its the first one to come to mind when i think of difficult moral choices in fallout

The shrine to Lincoln is extra ironic because plunked was actually out spoken against ending slavery and had a paper published called " valid points." also adds to the irony of his unique weapon

Regulators all the way ☺

Oxhorn: when are you doing a video on the mesmetron? It's the most interesting weapon in the fallout 3 game in my option anyways... I once played through and killed almost no-one I simply would use the mesmetron on that person and then collect my reward... you do need a high charisma score for it to work consistently however... you would be suprised how many npcs you can use the mesmetron on.

Bizarre thing happened to me many years ago when I played Fallout 3. Something bugged with the Regulator HQ, somehow Sonora Cruz decided to wander out of the HQ, got spooked by a fight, and never returned. To this day she wanders the wasteland. The only issue is I can never find her so I end up collecting hundreds of fingers and nowhere to put them. The only other NPC I've seen do that was one of the bartenders in Rivet City, but that was because one day I got bored and went on a murder-rampage, which must have broken his AI and turned him into a wandering merchant.

Actually, Ox, there is a way to tell the difference between a right and left index finger. If you hold up your hands, you'll notice that your fingers possess slight curving or twisting towards the thumb. This is how medical examiners and doctors are able to tell the hand a severed finger belongs to without having the hand present.

Oxhorn can you please update your fallout 4 mod list

AD VICTORIM

I'm so glad to see that FO3 is still being played. Love this game!

Interesting to see how this perk works in game. I never took it, mostly just because the perk seemed more valuable than the money. Looking forward to that Honest Hearts content!

Hey Oxhorn, in Fallout 4, there's an exchange when you first enter Goodneighbor that I always found a bit puzzling, and I was hoping you could make a video offering your two caps on it. After Finn dies (whether you kill him or Hancock stabs him), Hancock will tell you "Goodneighbor's off the people, for the people." Anyone even modestly well-read in U.S. History will know that this line was originally from the Gettysburg Address, which not only promoted unity in represenative democracy, but also racial equality (because the Address was done during the height of the American Civil War). You have the option to tell Hancock "That sounds like anarchy," to which Hancock will reply "The best kind of anarchy, so long as you remember who's in charge." That's all well and good, but here's where the head-scratcher comes into play: All the companions who are normally considered "good guys," like Preston, Piper, Curie, Valentine, etc., all LIKE it when you select this dialogue option! Equating democracy & equality to anarchy is something the good guys LIKE! That doesn't make any sense! Maybe if this were just one companion, we could chalk it up to a development error. Like ... maybe Bethesda meant for the Companion to dislike it but programmed in "like" by mistake. But this is EVERY Companion who is normally considered good! So is that some kind of political commentary Bethesda in the real world is trying to subtly squeeze in? Do the people at Bethesda, in the real world, actually think democracy and equality is bad for us? Or maybe it's a subtle hint as to how life before the Great War was? There's the occasional lore in the Fallout world suggesting that the few years immediatley before Great War were either martial law or bordering the line. Perhaps people just became so use to martial law that it's the only "government" they can comprehend? Anything that isn't martial law is therefore non-government, aka anarchy. Also, remember that the Cold War never really ended in the Fallout world. The generation immediately before the Great War - the generation that the Sole Survivor was a part of - had lived in this "Red Scare" their whole lives! Living in constant fear of some sort of enemy like Commmunist China can really take its toll on people's psyche. You need look no further than the Commonwealth's fear of The "Boogeyman" Institute to see that! Well, what if life before the Great War was so drenched in fear of Communism ... and the hatred of Communism became more and more entrenched in people's minds, and the paranoia of communism became greater and greater, that the people slowly began to take on the very traits they believed they hated? That happens from time to time! A person who is so passionate in his hatred of a particular enemy, and is so obsessed with defeating that enemy, that he, unbeknownst to himself, effectively BECOMES the very thing he's fighting against! The Direct-to-DVD movie "Batman: Under the Red Hood" is a perfect example of such a story. In that movie, Jason Todd becomes so obsessed with stopping crime that he literally turns himself into a mob boss, because he honestly believes that's the best way to control the worst of crime! So, could the people right before the Great War have potentially been so scared of communism that they've lost touch with what makes America a "free" country? What are YOUR thoughts on the matter?

7:34 "Hey, he shot me!" No he didn't, you liar; he didn't even have time to react.

Oxhorn, when I came to the home, Plunkett wasn't in the house. He simply didn't exist until I got the perk myself. I don't think he did that. :P

i love that theres a dogmeat in each game

Oh General Lee's hause is still standing? wonder how long will it take for it to get demolished

Yeet

Lol love the fact you kept the derp moment in

9:28 Yes, 200 year old fresh flowers, *that* *must* *be* *it* .
