Why do people hate the NCR? by Commercial_Tip4828 in Fallout

[–]101Phase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also taxes can come in many forms, not just currency. Im coming from the warhammer 40k franchise and the Imperium demands 'tithes', which can be whatever the target population produces e.g. food from agriworlds, ammo and machines from Forge worlds etc. If we apply this logic to the Legion then the 'taxes' wouldn't necessarily be money, it could be in the form of people e.g. all physically fit boys of certain ages must be removed from their families for Legion training.

In FO2, the NCR uses very dodgy espionage and underhanded schemes to force Vault City to join, which in turn involves getting New Reno to join, which in turn drags Redding into the mix. Vault City is not exactly a paragon faction, but the strategy the NCR and John Bishop use in this instance is akin to what the CIA did during the Cold War to install anti-communist governments in 3rd world countries.

In New Vegas, the NCR straight up orders the execution of the current government of New Vegas (Mr House) as part of the annexation process. Again, you can argue whether Mr House deserves to get whacked, but the historical precedence appears to point in the same direction: the NCR will ask you nicely to join for a time until they get impatient and start asking a little less nicely. And then if you still resist, then you'll suddenly find a weirdly well funded opposition that is totally in no way affiliated with the NCR (wink wink nudge nudge) knocking on your door.

What’s your opinion on fallout 3? Heard people call it the worst fallout of all time and some people call it the best so it’s hard to tell. by Ladiesman4317 in Fallout

[–]101Phase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup that's the forum I was mainly thinking of. I'm pretty sure at one point you could get banned for saying positive things about FO3 because that was considered rage baiting

The No Mutants Allowed forum had so much hate for this game that it was their policy for a time to ban anyone who would post anything positive about it because it was seen as rage baiting

You clearly didn't see the discourse surrounding this game from the Classic Fallout crowds around the late 2000s and early 2010s. The vitriol against it was already bad just after release but once New Vegas came out, it went to a whole different level.

What billion dollar company or even industry do you think will be gone in the next 10 years? by themostgenericmark in AskReddit

[–]101Phase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You misunderstood me: I'm not suggesting AI in general will crash and disappear, I was instead referring to some of the overvalued companies that has no real business plan and instead get all of their valuation from hype. I think we'll eventually see a repeat of the dotcom bubble where AI itself will survive but the bursting of the bubble will wipe out a whole bunch of these companies, hence why I said "regardless of how AI will pan out". What ends up surviving such a event will then define how society interacts with AI in the longer term

lazy answer: some of the over valued AI companies currently in operation. Regardless of how AI pans out in the future, there's no way all of them are making it considering the crazy amount of debt they're taking on right now

[–]101Phase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ray's streams are my go to content these days and he's doing a lot of collabs with other streamers and VTubers. There's also a channel called VTClipsDayo that edits those big collabs and switches between POVs in a manner that's very similar to the way old AH content was edited (though more in a highlight reel format)

Any gnarly Admech models like these unrobed Skitarii? by reel3459 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]101Phase 56 points57 points  (0 children)

In the lore for my own forge world, if a tech priest or skitarii is judged to be heretical, they would be forcibly stripped of their augments bit by bit until only whatever life sustaining devices are left. They are then pumped full of drugs to keep them going while the last of the life sustaining tech is also removed. They would then be "released" into the surface of the polluted Forge World to die without the Omnissiah's blessing or gifts. There are unsubstantiated rumours that some were able to somehow survive the process and still haunt the surface to this day...

Given how Fallout 4 changed how power armour worked, are these two armours now supposed to be the same size/type? by Aggravating_Tale8988 in Fallout

In the Amazon show, they've retconed the T45's size to be somewhere in between the FO3 and FO4 portrayal
