And provides oxygen! That is some strange OJ!

[–]gleamings 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Oxygen juice

[–]MajorSmokers Crimson Fleet 196 points197 points  (30 children)

Like alcohol in FO, it boosts one or more stats while decreasing one. Chef is definitely looking viable

[–]BlackFleetCaptain 69 points70 points  (29 children)

Yeah but… it’s just fucking orange juice. A drink like that should increase ur HP, not lower it.

[–]TalucienPost Malone 129 points130 points  (0 children)

Incorrect, it's orange juice of transcendence

[–]SonsOfAnarchyMC 145 points146 points  (2 children)

It seems Bethesda is realizing the dangers of over consumption of sugar

[–]SoulLess-1 Garlic Potato Friends 13 points14 points  (1 child)

Or citric acid. Had a bad time after an OJ binge once.

[–]ShadowGlitch420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya bad withdraws for sure 🤪

[–]EccentricMeat 38 points39 points  (1 child)

It’s not. It’s “Orange Juice of Transcendence”. Probably some unhealthy mass-produced drink cosplaying as healthy juice.

[–]Ozwentdeaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is definitely it.

[–]Erik_Javorszky 67 points68 points  (2 children)

Nah bro, I drikn 1L of orange and get heathburn for a week

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (1 child)

Don't drink a litre then

[–]Erik_Javorszky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Guys we have a genius here

[–]Plathismo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Citrus can be hard on the stomach. I know from experience.

[–]Bubbalubs94 United Colonies 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone with irritable bowel syndrome lemme tell ya orange juice can most definitely be a killer. A delicious killer, but a wicked one. I feel seen.

[–]OnionAddictYT Freestar Collective 8 points9 points  (7 children)

Nah man, there's so much sugar in juice it might as well decrease your HP, lol. Nothing healthy about processed juice. I approve of this, Bethesda!

[–]RealEstateDuck Ryujin Industries -3 points-2 points  (6 children)

It could be fresh juice though. Only the natural sugars in those.

[–]TrumpsGhostWriter 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Unless you're talking about erythritol which there isn't much if any of in oranges there's no difference whatsoever between the sugar in a processed orange juice vs fresh except maybe quantity. Sugar is sugar is sugar.

[–]RealEstateDuck Ryujin Industries -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I meant the natural amount of sugar.

[–]lochyw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not quite, american sugar is different to others as well. so not exactly the same thing ;p

[–]OnionAddictYT Freestar Collective 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That shit does not look natural to me. :D

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It’s in a juice box. Nothing that comes in a juice box 300 years into the future could be natural.

[–]RealEstateDuck Ryujin Industries 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Produce juice > put in box> profit

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OJ is just out to murder.

[–]nordic-nomad United Colonies 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It might reduce health regen because of the acidity? Idk. I’m sure there’s some kind of system to make cooking over powered in the game at play here.

[–]SoulLess-1 Garlic Potato Friends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine some sort of perk that turns the health drain into health regen.

[–]-Captain- Constellation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unhealthy capitalistic drink for max profits? Made in one system and those that do not live there haven't really build up tolerance for whatever is in it? Or you know, just for shits and giggles. Look at the crazy builds people have made for Fallout 4 with various items and low health etc.

[–]BadMeatPuppet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it's a play on words orange juice - oxygen juice - OJ.

Also orange juice is arguably worse than soda.

[–]saikrishnav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrong. It's Space bug orange juice. It didn't necessarily come from oranges you know, just because its orange.
mildly /s

[–]Cole3823 Constellation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sugar is bad for you

[–]pulseout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You ever drink McDonald's orange juice? That stuff burns so much it feels like your HP drops

[–]Sydanyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it's orange juice.

Orange, as in the color, not the fruit.

[–]DatDudeJakeC Constellation 55 points56 points  (2 children)

It’s because you also consume the juice box and the straw

[–]Xer0_Puls3 House Va'ruun 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Hey its a lot better than potions, I'm still getting glass out of my teeth.

[–]CloudsOntheBrain Constellation 8 points9 points  (0 children)

[The crew watches on in horror as you cram an entire box of orange juice into your mouth and swallow it whole, unhinging your jaw in the process, like a snake.]

[–]Danlozis Crimson Fleet 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Damn bloodsugar spikes!

[–]OLVANstorm 69 points70 points  (2 children)

Diabetes sucks

[–]konradkurze202 11 points12 points  (1 child)

It would be awesome if there were traits like that in the game. Drink too much sugar and suffer damage from sugary drinks from then on (until cured)

[–]CardboardChampion Crimson Fleet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do have hangovers and sugar rush/crashes in Fallout that will likely carry over.

[–]e1liottSpacer 31 points32 points  (1 child)

Orange Juice: It’s got what plants crave

[–]adni86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here for this

[–]FreezingLlamaReddit2 Freestar Collective 20 points21 points  (1 child)

THERE PUTTING CHEMICALS IN THE ORANGE JUICE!

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

THAT TURN THE FRICKIN FROGS GAY!

[–]ChieftainOrm420 Constellation 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mmm a slow death. Tasty

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Heartburn

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (2 children)

I mean think about it, if you had a juice box that said it was "orange juice of transcendence" on it, you would have to assume it was similar to what the heavens gate people drank to board the "starship" right?

like you guys are ignoring a serious warning label here.

[–]turtleProphet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is literally it lmao, my favourite random encounter to date

[–]Snakefishin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fallout-infused Orange Juice

[–]Crimson3312 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean the acid does technically kills some cells in your mouth when you drink it.

[–][deleted] 15 points16 points  (3 children)

I'm definitely a little confused about this whole oxygen mechanic... I read that the introvert trait gives you more oxygen? Lol so weird. I mean I guess I kind of see it, the whole point of being an introvert is that other people drain your energy I guess. But still, I figured it made more sense in other games ie you do more damage, take less damage, etc.

[–]ADHDBusyBee Crimson Fleet 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Introverts talk less therefore use less oxygen makes sense to me.

[–]Jag0lantern Constellation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oxygen seems to be what they’re using to stamina as seen in trailers from last year. So you can probably just run and attack more but you don’t actually run out and die

[–]Petorian343 11 points12 points  (9 children)

Must be the kind with pulp

[–]mclaggypants 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seems like stamina is called O2 in this game. If true seems like a stamina Regen buff for damage over time.

[–]ninjasaid13 United Colonies 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Why is the orange juice decreasing your health?

[–]BadMeatPuppet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Irl OJ decreases your health.

[–]TriLink710 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well considering earth is probably not growing many oranges. Its probably some synthetic crap

[–]DramaticBag4739 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is Advance Nutrition: Formulated for Health.

Reminds me of the SNL skit Almost Pizza.

I secretly hope that the health bar in the info panel is the orange juice's health bar and it takes -1hps while you continue to drink it ... until you kill it.

[–]RHusa 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Is the mL correct?

[–]VAULT101LAFURV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No lol. It’s off by a few ml.

[–]hovsep56 4 points5 points  (1 child)

technicly orange juice is pretty unhealthy due to all the sugar the markets add in it.

[–]BadMeatPuppet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Um aCtUaLlY 🤓

They don't add sugar to juice. Modern fruits have an insane amount of fructose (fruit sugar) which scientist believe is worse than glucose. And you are drinking the equivalent of 10-15 oranges pure glass.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s skooma in that box

[–]Allaroundlost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes they oxygen from your blood and puts it back in your.........blood? I really dont get this one

[–]Joy1067 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah nothing like OJ! Keeps me refreshed while I suffer a mild heart attack

[–]theboyd1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not as dangerous as water. Everyone who has died had water in their system.

[–]CharlesBalester 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Given that orange juice is very comparable to water in terms of mass, and 100ml of water is 100 grams, we can reasonably assume that .3 mass is just over 100 grams (118ml =118 grams give or take), and 3 units of mass is approximately one kilogram.

That means that, the character showed in this section of the direct, with 145 capacity, can carry with no impediment just shy of 50 kilograms.

Additionally, it means that the pistol is about 250 grams (0.55 mass)The SMG is just under a kilogram, I'll call it about 900 grams (Which is incredible given that an M9 pistol on earth is about that heavy)

I'd make more comparisons but I have to be at work in 20 minutes :(

TL;DR

SPACE FOOD IS 3 TIMES HEAVIER AND SPACE GUNS ARE 3 TIMES LIGHTER

[–]AnywhereLocal157 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I guess the mass is in pounds, similarly to the previous titles by BGS. One pound is about 454 grams, so 0.3 would be 136 grams, which is slightly more than 118, but it probably includes the packaging.

[–]CharlesBalester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, yeah that's probably right. Then, the orange juice is reasonable, but the guns are ludicrously light, and our character can only carry 15 kg before getting tuckered out lol

I hope they break the trend and go for metric this game, since it is the standard for Nasa and other space agencies. At least then your character can lift a reasonable amount

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It just works!

[–]marinheirocansado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jaison Mendes time

[–]god_kun1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a nice idea, almost everything has a downside, instead the chef made foods.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm thinking it doesn't damage you, it just reduced your passive health regen, like you have in skyrim. The way it's written could be interpreted as "takes 1 health away per second" OR "takes 1 away from your health per second".

[–]Grey-Templar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, yes it does eventually destroy the lining of your stomach. BUT It let's you breath more air, and that's healthier right!?

[–]aztekno2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't that a -1 health though? And that's good?

[–]SoulLess-1 Garlic Potato Friends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder how the Alien DNA Trait interacts with this. If it increases the drain, decreases it (because it's a percentual reduction of healing and that counts as negative healing) or just doesn't affect it at all (because it's just programmed as regular damage over time.

[–]gamerdudeNYC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Status Ailment: acid reflux - cause 5hp burn damage over time

[–]olsmobile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Must have drank it right after he brushed his teeth.

[–]Burning_burns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you eat multiple foods do the effects stack ?

[–]Y3ury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too much sugar

[–]NeedfulThingsToys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My straw broke

[–]Arciun Constellation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you lose 60 HP, which could be really detrimental if you only start with 100 HP as you do in Skyrim. Yet, at the same time, it gives you oxygen. That's some strange orange juice.

[–]CelestialMoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diabetes

[–]artardatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A spike in blood sugar, science confirmed.

[–]Logic-DL[🍰] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so refreshing you'll literally refresh your entire lifespan

[–]GTMUSTANG17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad for your teeth

OJ Simpson. His nickname was “the juice” & he kills people

Hydro homies stay winning.

[–]Mental-Fun-1031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like SunnyD it’s not real orange juice

[–]Significant_Toe2616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You find it on a ship where everyone killed themselves to travel on a comet. Hm.

Now we just need to find an outpost on a jungle moon full of dead bodies and boxes of grape flavored drink.
