_(Back in 2010)_ Fallout 2: "I used to be groundbreaking. But then they changed what groundbreaking was. Now what I am is retro, and what's groundbreaking seems weird and scary. It'll happen to yoooooouuuuu!" New Vegas: "No way, old man! We're gonna seem brand new, forever! Forever! Forever! Forever!"

"The world's still the same there's just less in it" That line always gave me chills

These 2 had the best chemistry of anyone in those movies, friend or foe they were great together.

"The world is still the same there's just less in it" hit me right in my core.💀

I love that the dialogue from a funny pirate movie and the soundtrack from a slightly funny post apocalypse game can just come together to make something great.

This was more emotionally investing than I had anticipated...

The hard part isn't getting into New Vegas. It's letting go.

This genuinely is one of my favourite dialogues in movie history. Two old men of a time past trying to grapple with a changing world, trying to save what they can from the dissapearing old world.

The OG Pirate’s trilogy ages like fine wine.

Few things in this world are more reassuring than Mr. Vegas' velvety sand paper of a voice flowing outta the Pip Boy's speaker.

That little guitar strum after Jack's "There's just less in it" fits so damn beautifully

This fits so well because that scene is about Jack reeling with the knowledge that his original way of finding meaning in the world and his life no longer works due to the passage of time. the same goes for enjoying older games. Eventually, nostalgia wears away and if you want to keep enjoying it you have to look harder to find something fun and meaningful to you, because (due to the game's age) it feels as though there's "less in it".

Online games that die because no one plays them anymore. "All those moments will be lost in time... like tears... in rain."

I would consider that to be a compliment; the game has remained beloved and relevant long enough for the graphics to show their age. Despite the game looking dated compared to now, it's still considered one of the best games, period. Gamers keep returning for the world, with the stories, characters, encounters, and flavor found within. How many other games that focused on graphical quality have disappeared after the initial hype because of weak story or gameplay? This game is much like a house with a good foundation and solid structure, just needing a fresh coat of paint and new carpet to spruce it up a bit but otherwise lasting far longer than newer ones with weak foundations and flimsy structures.

Unironically such a great piece of dialogue between characters who don't even like one another

I remember being really hung up on this dialogue the first time I saw it. Felt like the first time that getting older felt like the world was shrinking, becoming less. Those actors and celebrities I looked up to getting old, passing away, the little things I used to enjoy so much seeming old and dull, no more wonder in discovery or learning. That feeling, that understanding, realisation or what you want to call it seemed to just hit me then. Watching Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush playing a pair of pirates while the finality of the world pressed down on them. And in that unlikely place I felt like I knew what it was they were really talking about. “The world used to be a bigger place” things to do, new things to learn and possibilities. “The world’s still the same, there’s just less in it.” knowing the depth of what I thought back then now seems shallow. Everything is repeated. Nothing really new happens. Born too late to explore the world, born too early to reach the stars.

That guitar synced up so good 0:40

I can't describe the hope I got hearing Mr. NewVegas say he's not going anywhere, and his love for us is too strong.

I used to play NV in my first years of college, hours and hours spent in those yellowed desert landscapes, just listening to old Jazz songs and hunting geckos, hoping to discover the next uncharted location. I lost count of how many times I started it from scratch, how many simultaneous characters lived in the multiple save files, how many stories were created even in the same universe, but with so many possible results. So many ways to do the same, but differently... I thought I would never get tired of playing it, that I could always come back and roleplay with the same excitement as always. But years have gone by and I can't remember the last time I spent more than 20 minutes in the game, even with its mods and graphic improvements. Fallout was the first video game that I developed true feelings for, I miss wandering its paths as well as I miss the old city that saw me born, and the people who saw me grow up. And although all this sounds melancholic, somewhat hopeless, I know that it is a matter of time until a video game title manages to sink me as deeply as this one, a game that opened my mind to a new universe, to a way of understanding video games as a true art, not just a distraction or entertainment. And I just hope sometime in my life I can carry out a project with as much love and dedication as the one they put into NV. Thank you for inspiring me and for accompanying me on those long nights, I will never forget you Mr. New Vegas.

I like that you positioned them exactly so that Jack Sparrow heads straight into the saloon

I recently got my first gaming pc after years of playing vanilla New Vegas on console, it’s nice to finally be able to mod it and make it feel almost like a new game.

Games may age, but mods shall make them immortal

This actual hit me on a big emotional level. I miss the first experiences I had with games like New Vegas, Dragon Age Origins, Gears of War 3, Nier Gestalt, Brutal Legend, the two Riddick games, Metal Gear Solid 3, Shadow of the Colossus, etc. Games I loved to play over and over again, that were so thrilling to enjoy and left an everlasting impact on me. I would give anything for those first experiences again. To load Dragon Age Origins up and stare at the main menu for a few minutes as the theme song washed over me, making my first Grey Warden, and setting off into a new and exciting world of dark fantasy. How I miss those days.....

Fuck me....I never thought a meme could hit so hard. Especially with the new Vegas Ambien desert track playing. Really hit me hard, how much I used to play this game and how long it's been since it came out. How I still love this game but it almost feels kinda empty playing it now. Idk how to describe it. Maybe it reminds me too much of a time gone by. How games now are ten times larger on hard drive but don't have half the heart. It always feels like something is missing no matter where I go. World's still the same, just less in it.

The final line is timed so well with the final note of the guitar

It’s always a sad feeling

As much as this video is about New Vegas, it reminded a lot about how Minecraft feels now. No longer do you feel like the world is this vast unexplored place with danger in every corner. No longer do you feel like there's this new interesting mechanic that you've yet to discover.

The timing of that guitar lick is perfection.

As someone who's still in love with a dead series (Legacy of Kain), I also still treat NV as one of my comfort games. It's like afgans from a great grandma, a matriarch revered by everyone in the family, and she even made one especially for you. That nostalgic comfort keeps you tied to what you considered simpler, calmer times, and you wrap yourself in that afghan as you proceed to revisit old friends in a sandbox that you've seen countless times...but deep down, a part of you never left that sandbox, anyways.

God, they are both such great actors.

0:42 the musical cue being so perfectly timed is amazing. Love your attention to detail in these videos

God it is actually terrifying to think of some games being forgotten

You know you've made a good film when its themes would fit right in with F:NV, and you know you've made a good game when its themes would fit right in with Pirates. Masterpieces of their time, the both of them.

That OST hits hard, New Vegas is one of those games I want to play again but just can't get back into because I've always went back to it throughout my life, more than any game :)

At World's End an absolute gem

"World's the same, there's just less in it." Me after discovering and looting every location and finishing all the quests.

(me going to face Lanius for the millionth time) Lanius: So what now, Man of The West? Are we to be two immortals locked in an epic battle until Judgment Day and trumpets sound? Me: Speech 100

I like how they are talking while the music plays,it truly showing it's age

Jack and Barbosa's love-hate relationship is one of the greatest things ever written.

Goodspring's ambient music fits the dialogue tone perfectly. Well done!

I really wish a new company would swoop in and make a Fallout game with New Vegas levels of writing and RPG mechanics.

This dialogue fits so well with the New Vegas ambience. And that bit at the end... Perfection!

I'm a total stranger to this feeling, I go back to classic games and still love them the same way

I think a great game doesn't get bigger and better when IT ages, but when WE age. Maturity and personal growth helps us to understand and unfold the many layers from something so beloved and timeless. It makes it more personal when the things we once never considered become so relevant and meaningful to as we continue to age. Yeah sure, gameplay and graphics are not up to date, but there's always more to a game than just how it feels in response to a controller.

Ive always liked that seen because Barbossa is supposed to be the wiser but he's gaining wisdom from Jack.

Modders: "Ello poppet"

This is such a beautiful edit

That last line hits so hard with so many childhood games. I will always remember playing Vice City with my best friend and we would basically make up missions for the other to do

I was born in 95 and grew up in the 2000's with an awesome childhood. Now I'm 27, and I hate this decade. This world doesn't want folk like us no more. This scene sums up everything I'm feeling. Like Barbossa said, the world used to be a bigger place. I remember a time where there was no KZfaq or social media. I remember VHS tapes.

This one hurts, but bless these mod authors that squeeze everything out of these titles to bring us all a more joyful experience with new content

It sort of blows my mind that Silent Hill 2 and MGS2 are 22 years old and even MGS3 is 19. They still feel fresh to me and I _still_ keep finding new details about them.

the music lines up so well omgggg

This hit me squarely in the feels.

This is one of the bests Vegas crossovers I've seen. The cropping of the characters, the ending line, timing of the end of the ambience, and the radio at the end was just the cheery on top. Well done.

A surprisingly good mash-up. Kudos!

Morrowind players: First time?

Me making a build around guns, speech, and barter for the 20th time: I wish New Vegas wasn't the same every time. Siding with the NCR as always: I wish there were more faction quests. Not doing a single thing that earns negative karma: I should add more mods to make the game more interesting.

Things can age poorly, but something I will never like is how so many people see everything from a modern pov and don’t even bother to appreciate the product for what it was at its time or at least at its own thing

short, sweet. Great editing and composition

Bro this scene actually hit me hard when I was younger now it hurts because it's true

New Vegas, Borderlands 1, Morrowind...things that keep their place in my heart no matter how frustrating their old mechanics are.

These actually fit very well together

that fit with the music so well

This video is some of the purest art I've ever seen. I'm gonna save backups of it on every storage device I own so that it survives the apocalypse. Every time I burn a DVD this will be a bonus scene at the end. Dead srs

I just want a proper remake of the game with all the cut content and anything obsidian wanted to put in, be put in.

Can we just take a second to appreciate how good the editing is like holy SHIT

When the second part of the sequel of a film based on a theme park ride hits you with one of the realist lines of all time.

"The immaterial has become *immaterial* "

It's a bittersweet feeling, thinking back to my first playthrough of Oblivion, it was so magical, I hope that I will live to see the day where I can feel the same awe for a game again

Thanks for making this! I have no memory of this scene. I gotta watch more Sparrow & Barbossa!

i still come back every now and then to replay these

this hits home way too hard

Wow! As an "ancient" gamer this hits different. This game and a LOT of my favorites are getting "older" just like myself and even my ability to enjoy them, but one things for sure..... My love for them AND this damn channel.... That never changes. Lol. Thanks for posting. This IS funny if not somewhat morose. Now let's play "Big Iron" and pick up these spirits. 😉.

The music fits this scene so well

I'm still on my first play through. Making my way through the dlcs. Have yet to touch a mod. I want that vanilla experience

"That's the problem with being the last one online... by and by there be none left at all".

It’s interesting how these game graphics don’t degrade over time but our idea of what is considered good graphics do. I remember thinking Zelda Ocarina of Time was phenomenal graphics and looking back I realize it is incredibly outdated.

That slide guitar at the end was perfect.

Can we take a moment to appreciate this fire editing?

The great thing about time is it destroyers memories as well as everything else. So, by the time you come back to a thing you've long forgotten about, it's new again. And, if you're lucky, you'll remember just enough, it'll feel like cheating.

That banjo tho

This was my favourite quote of all times. Such a meaningful dialogue.

Between 1990 and 2012 was the golden age of both films and gaming. We got spoiled by how many good movies and games came out.

These two were very much the heart of the trilogy..........

Hewwwww boy this one got me feeling the saddest version of nostalgia.

That was perfect editing

Goes surprisingly well with the music.

Meme aside, the New Vegas OST legit makes the dialogue hit harder.

Man...this hit way harder then I thought it would.

The music and the creaking wood really ties this conversation together much better than the more triumphant sounding music in the movie. It fits the mood of their convo much bettee.

Well crap time to re-watch the Pirates movies as an adult to appreciate the small conversations like this. I probably could have remembered this exact convo nearly word for word but still hearing it repeated now hits different

This is painfully accurate…

Young gamers will never know this feeling 😭😭 This is why mods exist. They keep the games alive and fresh

This shit so philosophical. With the music and the conversation. Never been so moved in my life.

I’ve only played NV vanilla, and I will never tire of it. Sure I’ll never have that same sense of exploration as when I first scoured the entire map in my early playthroughs, but it always warms my heart.

Muggy will forever be the greatest character ever made

Gundam in Fallout memes for The Next? I'm watching Zeta Gundam

Phenomenal edit

I love replaying an old game for the first time in a while with a mod that upgrades graphics. Then it appears as perfect as it is in my memory.

The great thing about growing up playing older video games is that since they were already dated, this feeling never really happens in my opinion and the fact that I can play them at it's highest fedality.
