Fallout’s Most Terrifying Place - The Sierra Madre | FULL Fallout Lore & Origin Story
Ойындар
The Sierra Madre Casino and Resort is a tale of love and loss, but also tells a story about how to begin again you must let go.
This glamorous golden City was to be the crown jewel of the new world, a place that was safe for all who wanted to enter. But before it could officially open, all it set out to achieve was in ruin and its owner Sinclair had lost all he had cared for in this world.
In this video, we tell of the tragic tale of the Sierra Madre and explore the events leading up to 2281, as well as explore the creepy residence known only as the Ghost People.
This is the tale of the haunting city known as the Sierra Madre.

What’s the creepiest part of this DLC is when you discover about the radio signal you first come across before starting the DLC. It’s actually not an “advertisement” for the Sierra Madre, but instead it’s an emergency call. But for some reason ( I forgot why) the emergency call is tied to the dialogue of Vera Keyes inviting people to the Sierra Madre. So for 200 years, the SM has been calling for help, only to have people hear Vera Keyes invite travellers to their doom.

Dean says that Sinclair hooked up Vera’s message to the emergency broadcast, most likely to save costs, so that it would be widely broadcast. What he didn’t take into account was an actual emergency happening, which was ironically a huge oversight for a person who was preparing for nuclear war
@anthonygrittani1137

Basically, Sinclair had to cut corners since he didn’t have the budget to create a whole new system to send out a mass signal and let people know the sierra madre was opening. To do this, he used his emergency broadcast system and overrode it with Vera’s voice. However, the bombs dropped right before the gala event. Now her voice is trapped in the broadcast signal instead of an actual emergency broadcast
Even though the villa was constructed as cheaply as possible it’s still held up very well for 200 years

Literally felt like that with all that GOLD!
What's interesting is that Sinclair was the victim here. He wanted someplace to help people start over once the world went to shit and nearly bankrupted himself doing so. If anything the villain here is Dean. He strikes me as an egomaniac, getting jealous of Sinclair's villa and Casino and, despite being almost bankrupt, had a cheery attitude is so petty. But in any case I believe Sinclair really did believe in doing some good in the world and got stiffed by the Villa crew led by Mr Yesterday, plans to be robbed by Dean, forced to sign a contract with Big Empty (Mountain) and betrayed by Vera. It's like Sinclair just wanted to do some good and everything was against him. I think in a way we all let go and start over. I went in thinking Sinclair was like all the other rich asses, yet I find some =one who is human, so sure I took all the gold but I let go of my assumptions and started to rethink that maybe the Sierra Madre isn't that bad.

I also never got the chance to get Christine out of there/heal her if there was the option. Her radio frequency still shows up on my Pip Boy, but it’s silent when I tune into it. My own ghost from the Sierra Madre, haunting me every time I wanna listen to Big Iron. I wanted to use the bunker as a home base afterwards too but the radio playing only reminded me of my failures.

This dlc genuinely scared me. Next to cazadores. The ambience was eerie and creepy. And it also makes you hopeless and very very *very* cautious (unless you had light step). I get the DLC message being "to let go". But focc that i want to reward myself after getting my head blown up repeatedly. I of course trapped Elijah and got the gold for myself. Also great video.
The corrupt Villa manager responsible for cutting corners & other racket-type activities is referred to in the computer terminal entries. The references for "Mr. Yesterday" are like Victor calling Benny "Fancy Pants". It's likely the actual name is one very familiar to the player character, as someone given the plum position as a favour by his intimate friendship with the big guy, Frederick Sinclair. Recall the song that was famous for a washed-up crooner & once beloved vocalist... it is both a literal reference to the song & the figurative situation of the despised manager being discussed. Both are equally descriptive of the one whom still has his contempt for "tourists".

I'm a big resident evil which makes this one of my favorite dlcs because it reminds me of resident evil so much especially the casino itself
What I remember of the Sierra Madre while playing Fallout is that it is an ONE AREA in Fallout New Vegas that it is likely a player will die several times before you can get used to dealing with things like the bomb strapped to your neck or the enemies in it. In almost all other areas if one is cautious enough, it is unlikely one has to deal with your character dying. My guess is that the people that designed it wanted for the player to have an extra level of difficulty when dealing with it that just isn't used in on places the player has to go through.
It's crazy because at the end if the movie the Treasure of the Sierra Madre, the main characters have to let go of their riches and start again. This DLC was one of my favorites because if the ambient horror feel and the survival aspects. Also finally getting into the casino was awesome
For some reason, I always mistakenly think the Sierra Madre is in some underground cave system. Completely cutoff from the outside world. Like a massive secret underground city.

Nice breakdown! Dead Money is hard but the lore is intricate and honestly really neat. I'm also amused in gameplay how if you drop down to search Sinclair's bag (finding the holotape he removed) it's either difficult or outright impossible to get back up. Very fitting to the tone of the whole thing.
This DLC gives me big Bioshock vibes and that's why I love it
Dead Money is such a punishing DLC, but the story and lore about is is top notch. I felt bad about Vera but at the end you'll realize Sinclaire is the one you should feel bad about. DLC is hard but damn it's an emotional ride once you've uncovered the secrets behind the Seirra Madre.
Dead money is my favorite DLC of NV, the way there’s just echos in the villa makes me feel so lonely when playing. Also I found that you can hear the ghost people banging on the casino doors as you did the casino quests and holy shit is it haunting.
I really liked the Dead Money DLC. Almost SAW like in the way it startet, interesting characters, a tragedy born from love, jealousy, betrayel and greed, undead monsters in the streets and a poisonous red cloud which is everywere. A Masterpiece (crashes and other technical issues aside).

There is evidence that the mystery of the ghost people runs further than a unique form of ghoulism. Though ghouls are capable of indefinite immortality they still must eat, drink, and remove wastes and toxins from their bodies, Dean even confirms this in the dlc. The Ghost People are incapable of doing these actions while being trapped inside of their suits. Ghouls are also known to acquire energy from intense background radiation which isn't prevalent in the Madre. Though Ghosts share some motifs of Ghoulism there is no evidence they are even ghouls at all. It is believed that the ghost people at some point kept their victims alive to convert them. Though we do not know the exact process of the creation of ghosts we can speculate through looking through the Madre for what it possibly could give some idea. When trying to trigger the galla event you can come across the skeletal remains of a man strewn atop a table with many surgical supplies and large vials of embalming fluid laid on some shelves. The implication of this scene is that the man was deceased and went under the process of mummification. Whoever was responsible for the embalming did not succeed in the process because the remains at the scene were deteriorated beyond recognition. My speculation is that the application of embalming fluid is used in the process of creating ghosts. Whatever this fluid is has the same glowing green hue that you see in ghost people. The embalming procedure would take a lot of time to do and if it wasn't done by the ghost people themselves then it wouldn't be possible. So I believe the ghosts are mummified and possibly even undead. I know it's a stretch but hear this: the hazard suits used by the ghost people were supplied from Big MT which was also responsible for the creation of the spore carriers. If you don't know spore carriers aren't ghouls either they are in fact dead people that are being preserved and animated by an unknown fungal infection. What color are the spore carriers? Green, exactly the same as the Ghost people. The thing about this theory is that the ghost people are thought to be capable of higher thinking and cognitive ability. The create traps, conduct ritualistic practices (embalming, worshipping holograms, etc.) and are capable of communicating to one another to a degree of planning ambushes on the player. So it will probably always be a mystery of what the ghost people actually are, I just love thinking about this kind of stuff.

I watched The Treasure of the Sierra Madre on the flight home from my trip to Vegas earlier this month. I'd recommend the movie for sure

This was an excellent video. When I looked to your channel after watching this, I expected you to have far more views. But nonetheless your content is very good quality throughout, even in the older and less viewed videos. You deserve far more subscribers and attention given to your videos, my friend.
That song at the end of the video still gives me the creeps, whether playing Fallout or out in the real world.
This is an incredible story. I wasn't aware of much of it before I watched this video. Thank you for making it!
Always Happy to watch an WiseFish Fallout Video after Work Good Video as Always 👌
These videos you do are so good every single new location you make them so interesting always have my attention
“yeah you can put an experimental cloud on my casino”
Dead Money first playthrough: oh shit, what the fuck are those things? BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP AHHHHHHH Dead Money second playthrough: "Why can't I hold all these gold bars???" Dead Money later playthrough: *smuggles gear into DLC via Willow*, *DOOM music starts playing in background* "I'm back, asshole."
Literally just discovered your channel and I can already say I like it.
I'm curious what mods you're using, cause I know Dead Money's default weather doesn't look that nice. Also are you sure the Ghost People aren't the result of Trauma Harnesses? That was the assumption I'd always made, since the suits were made at Big MT, where we're shown this Trauma Harness tech that hijacks the body of the wearer and becomes hostile to anyone around it.

I use quite a lot of Mods tbh as well as a ENB which probably helps the weather system. As for the suit, I explored all the terminals and none of them mentioned Trauma Harnesses. Maybe the dark light hazard suits were part of that same project? Would make sense as they do move quite unnaturally

@@WiseFish Yeah, I always assumed that the cloud had corroded parts of the suit and that was why the Ghost People move so awkwardly unlike the Trauma Harnesses in Big MT

I like one particular theory that's been passed around a bit on r/Falloutlore. Somebody wrote up a short essay speculating that the Ghost People have mutated to the point where they move with a system of air bladders and internal pressure, kind of like spiders and sea stars, but with air instead of water. They're only able to run in short bursts and have to pause before they jump because they need to build up enough pressure to move like that. Supposedly bullets only slow them down instead of killing them because you're basically shooting a man-shaped sack of nerves and air bladders without much in the way of vital organs. If you poke enough holes in them, they deflate (hence why they make those jerky motions and sucking noises when they get back up). Bullet wounds they can heal over, but dismemberment takes them down because they can't regenerate a lost limb.
Fantastic video, I’ve played 1500+ hours of nv and I still didn’t know the full story of the sierra madre that you told
Amazing tale! I never bought this DLC because I felt it was too late-game for me to want to go do it (since you will want your skills super high to do it "right"). Awesome work!
What a story! Just replayed the DLC to experience it again. Thanks for the video!
Using the gold as a paper weight in my shitty apartment in Novac. It's not about the money, it's about sending a message
Love your videos! Great storytelling bud ☀️💛
Oh my. That voice just made me want to learn about my favorite game, after learning lore for years, and just makes me smile.
You make the sickest videos, dude! Thank you!
Just finished this the first time. Had to save SO many times. Probably saved every 15 seconds cause something might be screwing with me at any moment.
I can only image what the DLCs would have been like if Obsidian had more time for development
I blame the Sierra Madre for my slight phobia of large deco-style buildings.
I wish there was more to watch! Great video!!
love the dlc but my guilty pleasure way to play through is to use a ammo glitch and MFC cluster to just blow my way through everything that moves
I do hope you'll do more Fallout lore videos, it is hard to find channels that do it well in this style.
This DLC made me quit FO:NV for about 3 months. Eventually came back to it and loved the ending.
This was the first wisefish video I ever watched so this has a special love from me
For reall this was the scariest fallout dlc I’ve played and I don’t know why 😂

Now that i think about it the sierra madre feels mush like the fallout version of rapture from bioshock Also fun fact: madre means "mother" in italian
By far my favourite dlc in any game, love how you can’t take all the gold at the end as greed will literally kill you aha
This DLC reminding me alot of the old RE1 Remake and in some way Evil Within. And I'm kinda hoping the Sierra Madre mentioned in some way in the TV Show, as Sinclair made an appearance alongside Mr House.
When I first started Dead Money, I was completely shook and practically terrified of the villa and its surrounding areas. I was lucky to have leveled up after the first encounter I had because I immediately grabbed silent running in order to make it through. The ghost people were not easy to deal with and the cloud also gave me a hard time. Over time though, I figured out how to eventually get through, but even so, I was nervous. Once I reached the casino though, my fear turned to sadness as I started to better understand the story of the Sierra Madre and what happened to all of the key characters, like Vera. Watching her walk around the suites begging for Sinclair to save her and everyone else felt tragic. Finishing the DLC left me feeling bittersweet. Now though? I still play through and enjoy it, even on hardcore. It doesn’t pose too much of a challenge as before, but it’s still a lot harder than some of the other DLC’s, and I love for that reason.
Welcome to the Casino Serra Madre, Such lovely place. Such a lovely place.
What scared me is the only way too kill the ghost people was chopping the limps when i first did it I said "getting dead space vibes!" Plus I do the sneak but Elijah doesn't go in the vault he just touches the terminal then says the regular audio so i just look up the audio
As soon as I saw this I immediately started watching it and here we are... Im sure it’ll be great!
Played it and beat it when it came out but years later and the story on this dlc was always a heart tug
"let go" me crawling to the elevator with all the gold: lmao im gonna crash the mojave economy with all this
So sad such a great doc good job bro
Incredible. Thank you for this.
Great video, subbed.
