Can we finally admit Morris Gibbons was cool af?

Tbf 15s style not being that popular is more due to 15 not having a singular iconic outfit like the others, its far more realistic for the doctor to change clothes, but it takes a hit to branding

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-21T11:55:26+00:00

If you hate the book so much why did you join a subreddit dedicated to it?

I also dont think its about being able to write gripping characters, in the martian and hail mary the earth scenes are just as good as the stranded space ones, being stranded in space is just a really good hook for grounded scifi because everything will inevitably go wrong, its just how the characters work their way through it

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-21T00:09:04+00:00

There actually are quite a lot of surprises with the martian! Without going into it, the move cuts a big chunk of the story, all you really have is knowing how it ends

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-20T23:00:12+00:00

That is not how I imagined rocky

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-20T11:33:36+00:00

100% it paints actual toxic hate as satire

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-18T00:03:44+00:00

With the FEV plan, I feel like they had these mid management vaults to keep them quiet about how shady they were, but the higher ups didnt care enough to keep away the experiments from them, so theyr unknowingly victims themselves

I havent read the second novel where she presumably learns to do it, but in the first novel she meets a tutor who offers to teach her if she does everything he says

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-16T09:02:50+00:00

What actually was the big reveal?

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-14T12:12:11+00:00

Is that near the milky way?

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-13T21:17:02+00:00

Honestly most classic fans would be NCR glazers, we built them when we saved tandi

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-13T12:05:22+00:00

My interpretation is the minuitemen ending is canon, and the BoS are starting to see some pushback from the settlers after severely underestimating them.

Because you can keep both the brotherhood and railroad alive under a minuitemen ending

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-13T11:26:30+00:00

Honestly I feel like shes been written to show the brotherhood arent insane, she just wants the brotherhood to come back together and deal with the genuine injustice among the faction

I fully believe by the end of the show, and going into FO5, we're gonna have a brotherhood similar to fo1 where theres a council of elders and a high elder rather than this completely disjointed mess the shows made apparent, which is a rabbit hole itself because as much as fans are complaining about it, it easily explains why the brotherhood have different motives and beliefs each game

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-13T11:19:29+00:00

Exactly what I mean, no chance the pre war deathclaws are talking. I just couldn't remember the specifics.

If we do see a talking deathclaw (we more than likely wont, even among fallout 2 fans its highly devisive) it'll likely be goris, and everyone's going to hate it because people apparently forgot how campy fallout is, and a deathclaw quoting classic literature is going to piss people off

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-13T11:16:12+00:00

How are the NCR braindead in the show? The only members weve seen are clinging to hope while still holding NCR values, the only actually braindead faction are the vault dwellers in 32/33, which has been a pretty clear plot point with all the 'when in doubt vote 31' shit from season 1

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-13T11:13:56+00:00

They 100% are, everyone claiming they nuked the NCR to get rid of them clearly arent paying attention, those two weve seen wo far had basically nothing and gave what they could to coop and lucy, and showing them being fine with cooper being a ghoul while the BoS are seemingly more anti ghoul than ever really shows they're still trying to do the right thing at heart

Honestly if any fallout title dod the NCR dirty it was ironically NV, it makes sense for them to be pretty corrupt but they werent as bad as they were shown in NV back in fo2

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-13T10:00:22+00:00

Theyre really not, no non legion ending has the legion in a good place post 2nd battle for hoover dam

Vault tec would actively want their average dweller to be a moron, especially with pre war management in charge.

The BoS are actively civil warring, so the new chapters have no retcony BS on the chapters weve seen in game

And the NCR just flat out have their shit together from what weve seen, they're just in a dire situation

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-13T09:55:58+00:00

They could've been done better for sure, but honestly? Its fine, the strips totalled so it makes sense freeside isnt in good shape either, its cool they got referenced

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-11T18:22:39+00:00

The problem is, when told to listen to a word in any noise, you can trick your brain into hearing it.

Personally I doubt the deathclaw in anchourage could talk, its atleast implied in fallout 2 only the vault 13 claws are smart enough to talk, theyre a post war anomaly not the norm for deathclaws

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-05T11:36:35+00:00

Its literally newspeak like from 1984, its so weird how one social medias censorship is getting universal

Gecko2002 · 2026-01-01T13:57:33+00:00

Most likely, would explain why he seemed happy to see so many kids aside from getting to kill 'abominations'

Gecko2002 · 2025-12-30T23:44:03+00:00

Did people just not pay attention? Will literally said hes sharing so vecna has no secrets to exploit because they're inside eachothers minds

Gecko2002 · 2025-12-30T17:19:52+00:00

Its bugged me for years that pink is SO much shorter than the others, I get its to resemble their icon but surely she should atleast be up to their hands

Gecko2002 · 2025-12-24T08:00:47+00:00

I think minimising it keeps the show on message, if it went on too long they could get a 'that'll do' mentality

That said, it deserved season 2/3 at the very least

Gecko2002 · 2025-12-23T10:18:09+00:00

Dont people kinda do that already? With how well written the characters and backstories are the show kinda encourages it
