Additions Video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z3WEpNWLeNqff84.html Hello, everyone! Thank you so much for the attention and support the video and the channel has received. This is far beyond what I would have expected. I had hoped for a couple thousand views at best, but here we are at 27K at the time of this comment. Because of my lack of foresight, I was not careful in my research and creation of this video, which has led to some faulty information being put into the iceberg. Thankfully, some of you had pointed out some mistakes. I’ll be using this comment thread to keep track of any mistakes made within the video! If you see a mistake, reply to the comment thread to let me know. I’m currently in the process of finalizing a script for an Addendum Iceberg video that will make some corrections to any misinformation I’ve unintentionally spread! Thanks again! Mistakes Noticed So Far: NV Walking Corpses: This actually refers to a glitch wherein killing an NPC and reloading will, on rare occasions, cause the internal organs and muscles of the NPC to be mobile or upright. I’ve received some additional information on other topics, but I’ll save those for the Addendum!

I'm going off memory here, but here are my notes based on what I remember (mostly top level stuff, I stopped browsing Reddit years ago so the creepypasta stuff just goes over my head); - I think it's FEV II, found at Mariposa, that makes Super Mutants? IIRC other FEV strains have been used to explain why wildlife mutates so wildly, and why some people become Ghouls instead of dying (the "Ghoul Gene" likely is FEV exposure). BUUUT, and a big but, Chris Avellone in one of the Fallout Bible entries explicitly said that they got too carried away trying to explain all of this stuff instead of just rocking with the "back in the 50's people thought radiation would cause giant ants, so that's how Fallout's world works" vibe. Which I like. Given the original reference material Fallout was based on it's better to not think about it too hard, it's more stylistic than scientific - there was a special encounter in Fallout 1 where you'd find a crashed UFO with an Alien Blaster, some small energy cells, and a painting of Elvis. I'm sure the F3/F4 UFO crashes are homages to this. For anyone who doesn't know the Elvis painting is a joke referring to one of the many theories over Elvis Presley's death, that he didn't die but was abducted by aliens etc etc - it's not a theory that the Anchorage Sim is propaganda, it literally is. It's been a while since I played it but I'm sure that's part of the story, like the general who oversaw it's creation was your standard jingoistic commie-hating racist so it's all through his lens. - Fallout 76 definitely was developed by another team; Battlecry Studios. Bethesda acquired them, and set them to work on a multiplayer component for Fallout 4 which later became a new game, after cancelling the game "Battlecry". Thought that was common knowledge among fans. An interesting "did you know" is that Van Buren was originally going to run on the same engine Bethesda's Fallout 3 uses; gamebryo. An interesting one I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned is the game Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader. As far as I know, it's the only other game to use the SPECIAL system outside of Fallout. I'm surprised no-one has come up with a crackpot theory about them being linked, I mean that's what Reddit does right, come up with wild nonsense out of boredom? ;-)

Hello, this is a quick thought process of a madman: Considering the lore that the cult summoned them, and the Mothman/men even warned the cult of impeding doom before the bombs dropped + the EXP boosting powers, the fact that some are unkillable, and the fact that sometimes they will come to the aid of their own cult, their almost teleporting speed, and their death animation that results in them turning into nothing but dark ashes, they definitely feel like eldritch entities, or if not eldritch, then perhaps alien in nature.

More interesting now in FO76 apparently the guide stones have been partially translated they're written in the zetan language and it would seem the zetans wanted to help humanity not destroy it. My personal theory is that the zetans were actively against the fallout world elder gods. The reason I have is that ug-qualtoth and most derivatives of this pantheon have strong ties to radiation yet there's an artifact in FO4 heavily implied to be zetan in origin the zeta gun that actively fights radiation it even nullifies the radiation effects of the rad gun itself. The crown also had the ability to affect the wearers blood and make them immune to radiation and a serum derived from the wearers blood could cure massive amounts of radiation.

I'm surprised that _"Fallout 2's secret time limit"_ wasn't on there, or something to that effect. While Fallout 2 didn't officially have a time limit, unlike the first Fallout game, it did have an unofficial time limit of about thirteen in-game years. The chance of an average player spending enough time to reach the end of this time limit is extraordinarily low, and the limit was only implemented to prevent a variable overflow error rather than for actual game design purposes. Once the time limit is reached, the game abruptly cuts to a still image of a destroyed cityscape during a sunset, or perhaps an atomic bomb detonating if you want to be grim. There's only the sound of wind and really ominous music as big *_"THE END"_* text fades into view. You're then kicked back to the main menu with no additional prompts, menus, or messages. It's kind of surreal, and it probably freaked out a few people.

You know, a repeated theme in HP Lovecraft's work is humans shouldn't learn too much. "The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age. ” H.P. Lovecraft In Fallout, we have seen Lovecraft-style entities, yet none of them destroyed the world. "The sciences" are what we used to make the bombs and was our downfall even though all the other Lovecraft entities are still trying to kill us. So that is one interpretation of how Fallout connects to these themes.

Fallout 4 says explicitly that after Elder Lyons passed away and Sarah was killed, that Maxon was able to unify the Outcasts and the Brotherhood proper.

The walking corpses are actually pertaining to an early glitch in FNV. Essentially, you could turn someone into a fine red mist with some bones and organs left in the mix and sometimes they would just stand up and act normally.

"New Vegas walking corpses" might be in reference to the fact corpses will literally start walking sometimes. If a corpse is intact, the game will sometimes re-animate dead NPCs (The "primm is off limits" guy and the Strip NCR troopers will literally reanimate after a few in-game days, for example) However, this sometimes extends to NPCs that are MEANT to be dead, such as the burned corpses at Cazador Nest.

Also, contemporary politics tend to leave a work inevitably dated, which is the last thing an artist should want. At the same time, those that say "Politics belong in Games!" usually see no difference between Bioshock Infinite raising questions about Racism and Revolutions, or Metal Gear taking an Anti-War, "Beware the Military Industrial Complex" stance, and Family Guy having Peter beat the shit out of a caricature of a politician the writers don't like.

Yeah there is a lot of unexplained and vague “it’s not real” shit with that. If it wasn’t real they’d leave it up and wouldn’t ban it. Maybe the Devs were trying to tell about something they were aware of in a vague way to get through govt censors and now Fall Out 4 and 76 injected lots of shitty obvious myths like moth man or whatever to try and pretend it’s just some tradition. Fall Out 3 had heavy this hegemonic war shit is all fake and parodied both Chinese and American propaganda well. Also notice how China is the major news story for a possible WW3 scenario? I’d like to see someone flesh out those Morse code messages on an original Xbox to make sure it’s not patched with a cover up on an Xbox One. See for yourself, right?

Fallout 4's 5th faction is actually based on the theory that the gunners are paid by and motivated by an unknown 5th faction, they are being used to conquer and expand all over the wasteland. This would explain why their origins are so mysterious.

I was a bit upset that it got harder to see the titles of each subject as we got deeper but then I realized ‘Oh wait, that’s the point.’

The "unfound Easter egg" is theorized to be a terminal entry that was not added till after the first DLC was released but it was in a non dlc zone. It suggests that the player in FO4 is actually a synth. some evidence used to support this is that the synth it was talking about could use vats without a pipboy and the PC can use vats before picking up the pipboy in vault 111

Todd himself has said multiple times that the team in Boston also heavily worked on Fallout 76. Multiplayer alone from an ancient and underdeveloped engine can't be done just by an inexperienced team.

Funny how Bethesda bug fixed the Cryolator bug for the reason of not having a powerful weapon too early, yet you can get a Fatman and mini-nukes within minutes of exiting vault 111.

who else was turning their brightness up as he kept doing deeper in the iceberg

Wait, maybe none of the Lovecraftian abominations existed before the War. How? Simple: FEV. The Master was psychic. Fallout 1 lore, psychics exist and FEV helps. Now, let's say there's universes where he won. And kept growing. Eventually that might start doing real damage to space and time, because the only higher plane of existence for Dr. Grey is the Lovecraftian kind. The Master in a timeline where he won could have become the first Lovecraftian and altered history by doing so, which would explain lore inconsistencies.

That timeline breakaway question fascinates me. There's a terminal in the Boston Bugle building that references the 1984 World Series

Todd Howard's secret was probably a bugged entry that was fixed with the Far Harbor DLC. The entry eludes to the Sole Survivor being a Synth. It is why the guy in Arcadia was questioning you about being a Synth, and why your character has some strange answers.

Respect for making this bro. Fallout is a sick series and I'm glad someone is covering this with how much stuff there is inside for the player to find and piece together in their mind
