Vault 4 is the clear result of giving power to idiots. Only the strong survive, be it brain or bone, you WILL die.

For sure a better outcome then the overwhelming majority of all the vaults

Honestly that makes a lot of sense now lol

They did have pure genetics- purely mutant. ;)

Depends on whether the Lieutenant was right about the problem being FEV and not radiation. Unless Vault 4 was using both for mutations.

@@richardarriaga6271likely a bit of both since FEV is the main mutator in the series

He may not have had use for them genetically, but he would have either destroyed them or set up sentries in the form of super mutants or the Children of thr Cathedral to keep watch. I don't think he is would have left Vault 4 alone. Look at the surveillance he kept with Necropolis.

I honestly think it's a failed skill check 😂😂😂

Exactly

​@@aursunao2817Why not both?

And Maximus clearly failed the speech check and said some out of pocket shit, just like in the games

100% they litteraly have "Clerics" now. Probably a chaste like society

When your whole life involves struggling to find the absolute basics of survival, yeah, a video of so much natural, clean, rad-free water? Makes sense.

Yeah, I think he just found it soothing and relaxing, things he's not used to at all.

I thought he was watching the beginning of twin peaks hahaha

@@lyramckenzie8550 lol

i think it's more of an explanation of why she brought it up at that time

It is also important to note that Maximus sniffs the air and then tells Lucy "You smell nice". Lucy has a confused look on her face because in that moment she is dirty, and hasn't bathed in a few days. Lucy looks down towards her body and realizes that Maximus is smelling her lady stench, a smile appears on her face and she asks. "Do you wanna have sex?" I don't think there was a deeper point other than having some comedic relief.

@@jasonm2245 I figured it was because they were stuck in there for a few hours with nothing to do, and she figured out he had a thing for her. So why not?

@@Scyth0r it's the nuclear wasteland. Unless you're walking all day, being idle for a few hours is a daily occurrence

@@jasonm2245in the wasteland you have to be constantly looking at your surroundings, always on edge for possible dangers. Vault 4 was the first time Max and Lucy were in relative safety.

He sounds sad that his great uncle had to suffer through that

I must've missed all of that background

@@0dirtylmao how could you forget the bit in episode one where Lucy’s cousin keeps thirsting after her. 😂

Heh, they should have given a mannerisms where he keeps shifting the glasses to switch between the lens he uses with the joke being that they're prescription glasses from before he was mutated, and so are useless with new eye.

It's definitely goosy

@@PlebNC If he's a descendant of the generation that was experimented on, Overseer Benjamin would've been born with his mutation.

If the show were real, I would agree. In the fallout universe though, all scientists have zero morals

​@@peteallred2297same in the real world lmao everything we currently know about the human body (from pain tolerance to the literal composition of water) was discovered by scientists who ripped human beings open, kept them alive while they poked and proded their internal organs and measured the human body modern pain killers came from scientists forcing POWs to walk on jagged beds of rocks barefoot for 12 hours at a time and then dosing them up with pain killers until they found the perfect mixture

Yeah I think it was meant to be satire/irony

@@peteallred2297 Hard disagree. Morality is completely unnecessary for science. You need no further proof than to look back at history and see the kind of disturbing and inhumane things that were done in the name of scientific progress. Arguably; the only reason the "scientific community" of the modern day adheres to any level of ethical restrictions is a fear of retaliation from morally minded individuals who won't tolerate innocent people they care for being treated as subjects for testing an observation.

He also was relentlessly bullied so idk if he had any positive interaction with Females. His Rizz count is in the negatives tho that's for sure

@CitizenPoe two very different characters, have funny interactions. It's not head cannon

@@CitizenPoe or it's called having the slightest bit of analytical skill and not having every single plot point spoon fed to u but alright

The reason Maximus is lacking in sex education is because squires don't have much of a shelf life, and thus the Brotherhood would rather train them in the skills that are useful for the Brotherhood's purposes rather than what they need to know as people, to make the most of what little time they expect the squires will have. This is supported by the fact that when Maximus (pretending to be Titus) claims that "Maximus" has been killed, they immediately send Thaddeus to him as a replacement squire right away without even bothering to subject Thaddeus to his induction rites.

I'm assuming you were a kid once, or maybe are now. Did you learn everything you know about sex from school? He had at least 1 friend, there would be discussion at a minimum. As for the Brotherhood not teaching them, It's a cult. If there's one thing cults teach, it's how to grow their numbers. Even assuming this isn't the same Brotherhood chapter from NV who disapproved of Veronica because of her "proclivities," they would at least want their member to know the basics.

@@LifesGuardian Yes, he could learn in a cult about sexed, but not all the bells and whistles. It will be limited to keep them in line for what they want. I would highly suspect the Brotherhood would couple you and you wouldn't choose yourself. That would be my guess. In order for that to happen, they want you to not know or be fearful of the event so you don't think about another in your chapter distracting you from your job. It's exactly what happened at my school when they said "well to be 100% sure you won't get an STI, is to not have sex or any feelings whatsoever with a girl". Some boys will go "oh f off" and be rebellious, others will take that to heart and not have sex until they are well into their 20s. :) ah, the 60s.

​@@METALFREAK03 "Yes, he could learn in a cult about sexed, but not all the bells and whistles. It will be limited to keep them in line for what they want." You're assuming that they consider the male anatomy "bells and whistles." I assure you they do not. When I said basics, I meant they'd explain his anatomy, what happens to it, and where he needs to put it to make a baby. Women's anatomy I could buy him being ignorant about, his own, not a chance. He knew to call it a *Ahem* after all. Even then, that's a stretch because they have doctors who would know about anatomy from autopsies and scribes from books. "I would highly suspect the Brotherhood would couple you and you wouldn't choose yourself. That would be my guess." No, the Brotherhood does not arrange relationships. Otherwise, Veronica wouldn't have dated another woman for the other members of the chapter to disapprove of. "In order for that to happen, they want you to not know or be fearful of the event so you don't think about another in your chapter distracting you from your job." Fraternization interfering with the job I could understand. For example, 2 Paladins or 2 scribes, because if either of them got promoted, they'd have significant influence on the career of the other. However, splitting the difference doesn't seem to be a problem. In NV Veronica mentions her father being a paladin and her mother a scribe. This way, neither can interfere with the career of the other. As for interference with their job, most militaries have rules about engaging in sex while on missions. I'd imagine it'd be something like that. "It's exactly what happened at my school when they said ""well to be 100% sure you won't get an STI, is to not have sex or any feelings whatsoever with a girl""." The problem with this analogy is that your school had a vested interest in their students not having children. The Brotherhood does not. In fact, I can imagine the opposite being true considering how distrustful the Brotherhood is of "outsiders." They do not recruit outside of their order, except for the main character, specifically because of it. Even on the east coast when Elder Lyons broke from the west, they still did not. Again, except for the MC. "Some boys will go ""oh f off"" and be rebellious, others will take that to heart and not have sex until they are well into their 20s." I don't see this being a problem in the Brotherhood. Well, except for the abstaining until 20's part. Again, the Brotherhood would want their members to have kids, your school did not. STD's would be feared, sure, but with such a small pool of "breeding stock" and their views on "outsiders" I doubt that it would be a common occurrence since contracting such a disease would all but guarantee to reveal the illicit activity you engaged in while on mission. That, I would imagine would be punished severely given how easily transmissible they are and how often such infections can lead to sterility or death.

​@@LifesGuardianhis one friend is non-binary though, and might not have the same genitals as him. Which would mean they wouldn't know anymore than he did about how his genitals work. I learned a lot of my sex-ed from the internet because my school's sex-ed sucked, and they don't have the internet anymore in fallout.

@@LifesGuardian that is a lot of faith that the brotherhood cares about it's cattle, they've shown several times in the show that this brotherhood doesn't give a shit about the initiates, they are meat for the meat grinder, assuming they would teach them anything other than what they are looking for is a big leap given what THIS brotherhood does

I believe I raised this exact point in a previous video, well, the Lucy side at least. Glad I’m not the only one who came to this conclusion.

Considering the BoS rarely allowed outsiders to become members they'd need to replace losses which makes Maximus not being that knowledgeable about sex/reproduction (not even knowing about an erection) very strange

These points are pretty obvious and it’s strange that Oxhorn keeps missing this

Yeah, a couple of points in his video here are a bit off. E.g the '80 volunteers' probably weren't test subjects. They probably were really scientists, and when they were stuck in the vault during the apocalypse, they just started with the planned way of testing by kidnapping teat subjects.

@@thestanleys3657 Oh it gets worse. The Institute did have one legit concern - genetic damage caused by the bombs hence the original motive for kidnapping Shaun. So what does that have to do with BoS? Well you wrote it yourself. They rarely accepted outsiders which raises the question how did they keep the numbers up? Only reason that can make sense is incestual relationships. Even Lucy's Vault admitted that was a problem for them hence the marrying of outsiders before genetic damage happened. Then there is the apparent segregation of male and female recruits in the TV show BoS. Now for obvious reasons that can be a good thing. . .for awhile. . .BUT. . .if the two sexes aren't introduced to one another at some point then the interest in the other and reproduction won't happen much.

yeah, and oxhorn constantly whining about it is infuriating at this point.

​@@tegrideeespecially at his big age

They are supposed to be having kids for the Vault, so it makes sense they would be casual about it.

@@richardarriaga6271 Yes, but even beyond that, their society is seemingly okay with incestuous relationships so long as there's no reproduction. They're very sex-positive, which surprised me since this is a video game IP. I really hope that going forward, Bethesda is less afraid to delve into mature themes like this.

​@@jessep5280they probably won't use writing like this anymore considering how many people, like ox, seem to have no understanding of it at all. Fallout fans aren't nearly as smart as the writers of the show, yet clearly the fans don't feel that way.

Probably Mr Bighorner, Overseer Jerry seems to have a thing about named people after animals.

This made me laugh harder than it should have

Because it is.

I did not notice that.

Also, oysters are considered an aphrodisiac, which is why he brings up sex again to Lucy in the room.

Knowing Vault-Tec it was mos definitely the latter. Vault-Tec had no Filter, didn't care or dared to do the unspeakable.

@timothyharris1125 Same moralistic code as the Neighbourhood Watch Association from Hot Fuzz, murdering people and claiming "It's all for the greater good.."

I mean, you aren't wrong to be suspicious of people in a vault. Playing through the games, most of the vaults are dangerous.

I assumed it was because it was a vault experiment openly ran pre war as the commercial stated i mean everyone would be classified as a test subject given that context.

That's putting it mildly.

And still just as horrifying.

In the game Shady Sands isn’t close to LA, or Santa Monica either. It’s quite a bit north of those locations, and in turn Vault 4. Not sure why the show put Shady Sands so close to LA

@@eriksand9262 I mean, at first, I thought vault 4 was 14 and kind of made sense for the "mutated residents", as the experiment was the vault door was broken. But by the end of F2, I understood that vault 14 was integrated to Shady Sands (NCR , as it was called in the game). So, if a catastrophic event happened, how come they didn't go to vault 14? It was refurbished by the NCR and functional, as Tandy was looking forward to annex it. But I don't want to be a weirdo that nitpicks the series. I just have issues in the plot that bother me.

Would be pretty sicc if they visit v13, and theres a skeleton of "an overseer" outside the door, lmao

@@zCREz agree. Especially, if they go there because of a "water chip" issue.

I just realised that too! :)

He's also Cyrill Figgus from Archer and Jerry Smith from Rick and Morty. His actors name is Chris Parnell

@@mikeyplays9677 And Dr. Leo Spaceman from 30 rock. Who I think is a lot like the overseer from an alternate timeline.

That would be hard to hide however. The numerical name system inherently implies the existence of Vaults with prior Numbers. If you lived in Vault 101, I bet the discussion of Vaults with Numbers 100 to 1 comes up a lot.

Some Vaults were well hidden while others we're in Plain view of the Public. Vault 19 is hidden underground in a manhole cover in a parking lot, where as Vaults 3, 76 or 51 are basically built on the side of mountains or have a whole front door with the number in your face in large font.

I love this idea because that would mean more possible Fallout games in the future!

@@jakespacepiratee3740 You missed Vault 0

His Charisma stats are horrendously low.

Exactly. breeding is a practical matter in a vault designed to last centuries and so in a vault, it is discussed very openly and frankly.

The raider is not evem her first sexual experience lol. 32 and 33 are experiments for breeding of 31 hence their sexual priorities of procreation and strict rules against inbreeding.

@@josephg.3771 "dry humping" is not sexual experiences.

​@METALFREAK03 I disagree that dry humping is not sexual experience. If you can get pregnant from it, then it most definitely is sexual experience. The friction is just coming from elsewhere.

okay but why was the conversation even there it was just random like they made it so when max brings it up to be funny it was just random

Get the feeling Maximus is going to be flipflopping between allegiance to the BoS and friendship(love?) with Lucy.

@@chadharger9323 the brotherhood learns about Lucy and they want to know what vault she came from so they can take the resources and technology and stop what evil experiment they are conducting their!

I'm not so sure about that. Maximus was obviously having doubts about BoS mission statement.

I hope he stats quiet. We know how the BoS are with mutants.

@@commonviewer2488 especially what's in vault 4

I am thinking of a type of co-government, where you always have someone representing the descendants of the original vault dwellers, and someone representing the Shady Sands refugees

I thought of Cyril from Archer and immediately started trying to imagine how Archer would dunk on him for being a cyclops.

Chris Parnell from snl. He's pretty funny, I hope he's in season 2 somewhere.

@@JReed7560 I said VA which means voice actor.

He is also zero figus from archer

​Cyril figgus and also Jerry the dad in Rick and Morty ​@mitchelryan9282

There is NO JAPANESE VA for the overseer. That’s Chris Parnell and that’s his real voice. Chris Parnell VAs in Archer and Rick & Morty.

Not a bad theory. I am thinking something similar, except the abducted part. I think she bought a spot in a vault just in case nukes dropped, and vault tec instructed the original Overseer to put her in cryo and never wake her up. Once the residents rebelled, they themselves thawed her to either help overthrow the Overseer or to just free her once they did. The rest with her leaving and discovering NCR and helping survivors reach the vault is an awesome theory.

I saw an ad that sell the Freezing Chamber and the ad reads " you can come to life at any time you set", so maybe Moldaver bought one and froze herself.

That's because it is an axolotl but all salamanders are considered as gulpers in the fallout universe, just like all mutated crustrations are categorized as mire lurks.

I thought the Show Gulper (which was derived from a Axolotl) because they were born from humans, so they had partial human DNA, causing human finger-mouths and human hands.

@@jakespacepiratee3740 so basically the only thing in common that east coast gulpers and west coast gulpers have is they are both based on amphibians, just like the only thing all mirelurks have in common are they are all based on, evolved from crustasions. The east coat gulpers evolved from hellbender salamanders in the wild, thebes coast ones were created by splicing salamander dna into human babies.

Salamander and newt baby's look just like an axolotl. The thing that makes the axolotl special is that it reproduces without ever growing lungs.

@@jamesbenthul4590 also its even reported that sometimes an axolotl will transform into a salamander.

Dude, if the BOS didn't sleep with each other, they would have died off. It is extremely rare for the BOS to take in outsiders from the wastes on the west coast

@@jvazacas I'm not saying they never sleep with each other. Just that teaching it isn't a priority. If shit happens, shit happens. But they just don't do much to keep members from being distracted.

I honestly thought this was about that tbh. I haven’t watched the show yet.

Fourville. Great mod.🤘

​@@GideonGrimmGamingwhy not go watch it NOW

Yeah makes sense, your prepping with genetics for a nuke war...yeah make sense to drag in things that habe that triat.

Yes...but I don't think it means exactly what we think... I don't personally think a full grown human became a gulper...but more so...the pack/school of fish was all his family members in a sense thru birth.

@@SuperCaspermanit’s literally stated that the full grown one is his uncle Peter (in the lab). Meaning the one in the wild is not. It’s also a separate experiment because presumably “uncle” means a man, not an impregnated woman. Vault 4 did multiple experiments.

How do you even solve that like...bunch of pregnant ladys in frozen in cryo and each one have ready to pop out a swarm of killing mechines or anything new they where trying out explians why the doc freaked out at a small noise i would if that was my working conditions.

If so likely candidate vault 12 aka necropolis

When Lucy says something about how the Radiation was the cause for his character to turn into a Ghoul. He responds with “something like that.” So it’s possible.

@eriksand9262 yea that's where I got the idea from to also that maybe where they got the knowledge from of the stuff that stops them turning

@eriksand9262 yes, but when she drinks that irradiated water and she asks what are you, he responds with well I'm you sweetheart, just give it time. This makes me think it was strictly radiation. He knew Vault Tec was evil by the time the bombs dropped. His wife divorced him and Vault Tec branded him a communist sympathizer. First episode he was called pinko and the remark he is doing kids parties to pay for alimony proves this. Why would he even step into a vault with that knowledge?

Vault 87 in Fallout 3, the door is intact and remains sealed but lies within one of the (if not the single) most radioactive locations in the game. As a result your forced to enter through Little Lamplight to avoid the Radiation, important part of the main quest line.

@@o.k.productions5202 I was thinking more vaults that are just gone or we won't ever be able to see. We could still get into that one but I'm thinking was there a vault that has no hope of being able to be entered a normal way or at all. Like one of they got hit by a nuke or one that got buried and there is no way in or out anymore

It is one
