When Dean mentions how Sinclair's life kept getting dragged through the dirt he pauses first, as if there's something else he was going to say but decided not to. Makes me think he'd already been pursuing a one-sided vendetta against Sinclair for some time

Wolfsheim posted:Sinclair, a minor figure from a DLC few played and fewer liked I understand the co-lead writer binged through the entire game series as research, so the fact that he apparently came away from all that with a memory of and affection for Dead Money specifically is - let's be very clear - a triumph of the human spirit and a lone voice of sanity in a mad world

I like this dumb lore drop, America was a fascist monster in Fallout (and in real life! dohohoh) so having the main character who was a soldier be complicit in warcrimes is perfectky logical. Either he realized the error of his ways as he grew older or he stayed a monster, that's on how you play him.

It was some random news clip, there's no need to know who those two random soldiers were. You don't need to tie back everything to everything else.

You know all the pre-war skeletons across the Commonwealth in weird places and positions? Your character killed them all, he was in the middle of a serial killer spree when the bombs fell. In fact there was a detective who was about to catch him. And that detective became Nick Valentine

And he had the sexy voice of Jed Masterson from the Happy Trails Caravan Company on his holotape recordings.

That one actually isn't Nick's personal quest. It's actually an unmarked quest you can stumble across near Diamond City but it's pretty clear from the audio tapes that the serial killer left his lair set up for Nick back before the war.

Not Bethesda. They made him not change at all in 200+ years of mutating solitude and had Nick be completely right in following his insane and pointless revenge quest tangent

I have finished Amazon Prime Presents: Fallout and while I had a rollicking good time the last shot being the overseer headed towards New Vegas makes me concerned not just because of how easy it would be for Bethesda to gently caress up everything interesting about that premise but also how bad the dropoff was between Westworld S1 and S2 so it has those two things going strongly against it And yeah with Sinclair having him literally be the Big MT rep doesn't gel with the story as presented in FNV but whatever they clearly just threw that one in for the loreheads Also the NCR thing isn't just a throwaway scene its literally the crux of the finale lol at the internet getting basic things wrong yet again (the timeline is off though)

Yeah this is something that is weird to me. You aren't retelling a story from the book/game but instead doing your own thing, ok sure that's fine. Oh wait, here's Jeff the Taco Guy who is now the Hot Dog Guy for some reason? The dark wizard Glorpulon is back but was actually an undercover good guy the whole time?
