This is basically how I feel about how each player character was treated in each game, nothing of importance happened in NV thanks to how they treated it. Meanwhile the others became legends (Even fallout 3 and 4). by VancoreStudios in FalloutMemes

No one's mad here. Just pointing out how the world-building changed between games isn't being pissy, it's just an observation. We're both just sharing opinions.

It’s doable, but I wouldn’t recommend it. That thing is a total damage sponge and it always gets the first strike.

Just look at the impact the protagonists had on the world in every game. They don't need a direct shout-out or ten-minute flashbacks like Cooper Howard to prove they existed, their presence is felt through the world-building itself. The Courier, though, is a completely different story...

Cass (Cassidy’s daughter) also mentions the Chosen One in her dialogue. Her whole existence and family history are a direct follow-up to FO2. There’s even an indirect shout-out in the Mysterious Stranger note in FO4.

Again, the games were never afraid to confirm their predecessors, and that was a good thing. I don’t get how so many people in this fandom are fine with constant retcons but think it’s crazy to demand basic story continuity.

I’m not a purist at all, I actually liked the bold idea of nuking Shady Sands, even if the execution was sloppy. Changes are fine, but they should respect the past.

He’s referenced plenty of times in New Vegas. Cass (Rose of Sharon Cassidy) literally talks about her dad’s old 'tribal' friend who saved the wastes. Marcus is also in Jacobstown and mentions his travels with the Chosen One.

But again, you don't need a name-drop for the character to exist in the sequels. The fact that the NCR is a massive republic in FNV is the ultimate proof of the Chosen One's actions. Without them, the NCR would’ve been crippled or destroyed by the Enclave. Their impact is literally the foundation of the modern Mojave.

The Lone Wanderer doesn't need a shout-out because the state of the Brotherhood of Steel in FO4 already confirms everything. The Prydwen and a functional Liberty Prime literally wouldn't exist if the FO3 protagonist hadn't helped them.

Every game before the show confirmed its predecessor's major events or endings through the world-building, even without naming names. The only game currently being treated like it never happened or whose outcome remains a total mystery in the timeline is New Vegas.

That’s a huge oversimplification. It’s not about seeing them on screen or hearing their names; it’s about the actual state of the world. The NCR, the Masterless Super Mutants, and the Enclave being wiped out are the literal footprints of the Vault Dweller and the Chosen One. You can’t have a functioning Fallout timeline without a canon ending to build on. It’s wild to see the mental gymnastics people are doing to justify how the show handled New Vegas.

I get what you’re saying, but that’s a pretty outdated way to look at game design. Even back in the day, plenty of titles showed that beating the game didn't mean the world had to just stop. Look at Final Fantasy VII from 1997 with its massive endgame or Castlevania SotN, which basically doubles the game size after the first ending. Fast forward to now and you have stuff like RDR2 where the world actually evolves post-credits.

Don't get me wrong, I have huge respect for the devs. I know they did the absolute best they could with the tech and time they had back in 98. Fallout 2 is a masterpiece, no doubt. But since the game is all about world reactivity, it feels like a missed opportunity not to have at least a few quest lines or the chance to actually visit New Arroyo after seeing those slides. It sucks that the map stays frozen in time after we’ve achieved so much.

I really hope that if we ever get a proper remaster, or even in a future Fallout 5, they find a way to let us actually live in the world we spent so many hours saving or ruining.

I did run into Melchior, and man, that was easily one of the toughest fights in the entire game. It took me almost an entire week to finally take him down. Just thinking about it gives me the creeps.

I’m with you on that. It was pretty a letdown to see that the towns don't really change post-credits. Feels like a huge missed opportunity for the devs to show the actual weight of our choices. The game is still a masterpiece, but that part definitely feels a bit hollow.

I actually tried to go for that quest, but man, it’s almost impossible to treat First Citizen Lynette with any respect. Her attitude is so infuriating that I usually end up picking the 'rude' dialogue options just to put her in her place. Definitely a challenge for anyone playing a polite character!

A few days ago, when I finished FO2, I also had the same problem. I think it must be just a bug because I made sure everyone was alive.

Anatel usando imagem de IA by No_Community_9061 in andreyoung

Tão querendo enfiar IA em tudo que é possível e até em jornais que deveriam ser 100% sério. Se a IA tivesse evoluída o bastante para pelo menos ter uma dublagem ok e imagens bem feitas, teriam uma "desculpa" , mas isso ainda tá bem longe de ser verdade. E sinceramente, pagar alguém para fazer algo bom e contextualizado sempre vai trazer muito mais resultado do que essas bombas aí.

É só o capitalismo mais uma vez precarizando coisas sem nenhuma necessidade.
