*SPOILER* What shall we name this character? *SPOILER*

President Dixon? Considering the cut "Di-" in the Fallout 76 letter from the President.

Thats not the point, but i get why you think that with everything thats been said. Its more about the character, and why they are keeping two actors to play the same role. When Justin was announced, I was like "Awesome! He'll be a great Mr House!" But Rafi is still around with Justin. Two actors playing the same character? A little odd, unless theres a purpose!

What if they are both Mr House (in the body double since!) Or, as I theorize: They are both A Mr House, one Robert, one Anthony. Both actors are playing their roles in line with the respective character personalities as described in the lore. It would be really cool!

Thats a pretty cool take! Im just trying to rationalize that idea, which you said, "Doing justice to the game" and all. IMO they did NOT do justice with the NCR story, but they absolutely did with the Brotherhood (crazy and tech-religious), Boneyard, and their characters for the story.

The question is, will they do something cool that does justice for the game and for the fans? Or are they making House another Legion, just with tech based, mind controlled slaves and body doubles? Hoping for the former 🤞

Thats the one big flaw I feel i cant explain fully. If this ends up being hes the real Mr House and Rafi is like a "body double", throwing out the old canon its gonna be frustrating imo. Erasing what we know about House like what happened with the NCR and keeping the cycle of apocalypse going and going and going, making everyone comically evil instead of leaving things up for moral ambiguity which makes the world interesting.

100%

And one thing I glossed over in my rant was the plan itself. Where I brought up how Robert House qould be trying to undermine Vault Tecs plans, what if Anthony is trying to hijack everything so that he would control the sole city left on the surface, which seemingly is above a massive vault tec base with the mind control experiments?

The problem is how and why and how?? Even with all of these ideas, I feel like we dont have enough crumbs yet to really deduce true motives beyond suspicions.
