    my guess, my hope, is that the NCR is fractured and still struggling to right itself, shady sands loss wouldn't be the biggest hit, it would be all the refugees without enough clean water or food that would pulse out from the region, a human tragedy the NCR would be unable to absorb. The political power of the NCR lies with greedy brahmin barons, weapons manufacturers, and people in the business of water, and the ensuing conflicts over resources in the area would probably ... well turn it back into the wasteland, and explain how fucked everything in the area is

    Shady Sands is the first town you visit in the first game of the Fallout franchise. A lot of the lore of the series and worldbuilding for the Wasteland started at Shady Sands. And Shady Sands was founded by residents from Vault 15, a Vault populated by people with vastly different ideologies. That's why the Vault was abandoned so early, the people weren't able to work together so the different groups split up when the Vault door opened. By the end of Fallout 2, the NCR was able to reclaim Vault 15 and gain access to what was left of the technology there.

    ​@@josiadorthestrong1031 Vegas is far from Shady sands.. And by FNV NCR was stretched thin, but also had 5 major cities under it's belt...And I do believe Shady Sands is referred to in FNV as the "FORMER" capitol of the NCR...So Shady sands could very well have been "Kaboomed" before the events of FNV, which could also lend explanation as to why the NCR doesn't wish to abandon it's campaign in New Vegas, and why Soldiers are mostly sent to "New Vegas" for R n R instead of venturing back home. Series is said to be canon as is the games.. I think there's just a bit of "Screw up" with the dates, but even if not the series of events would be during the campaign in FNV or leading to the campaign shady sands was Kaboomed.. And who cares? The Two-headed bear will still bring democracy to the wasteland, and no tin-can man with "cum-for-brains" or idiots with spears will stop that.

    It’s so heartbreaking that all of our hard work in Fallout 1, 2, and. NV was destroyed. Shady Sands was nuked, some NCR Ranger reduced to lead manufacturers or farmers, some officers of the NCR helping criminals operate drug den, and the NCR itself reduced to hermit settlements. Even until the very end, they still fought to better humanity with unlimited resources. Despite their flaws, their core trait was to always help improve people’s lives. Out of all the factions, they were beaten down the most. I hope season 2 show it isn’t really as bad as we see it in season 1, and that it was only contained in that small area.

    @@anonviewerciv Ah, I see, you're horribly butthurt from recent failures in the industry. Can't say I fault you, but you are making a generalization by assuming this is a reset. Shadey Sands was not the entirety of the NCR, it was the FIRST capital. In fact, it could only have fallen because New Vegas happened. It would have been basically impossible for it to NOT have fallen given the events of New Vegas. It's what happens when you send half your army away to fight in distant lands. You know, like Rome. If you're not an absolute fool you'd notice that NEW VEGAS references this... ALL the timelines talk about NCR back home being in turmoil. Granted, they probably had a different storyline in mind originally (civil war most likely), but you have to be a tool to think this doesn't fit. Besides, you evidently don't know about the interview that confirmed the NCR are returning in overwhelming force next season. Sounds like absolute fooking awesome story telling to me, "Remember Shadey Sands!" Vault Tech is about to get an asswhoppin.

As long as people disagree and the means to make the world a better place, conflict is inevitable because such disagreements make conflict appear necessary. Furthermore, war NEVER changes; that's one of the most famous lines in the franchise, so obviously, people (not just men) will always need to chance, though I'm uncertain what about them needs to change.

    I got to this point in the show and was genuinely trying to figure out why people were so angry, because that flashback is actually exactly how I imagined Shady Sands looked in Fallout 2. Aesthetically/architecturally, I mean. Like that city hall building with the obelisk. Etc. It looked like the 2D townscape reimagined in 3D. A sort of Wild West frontier town built inside the ruins of the old world. If they’re angry about Shady Sands being destroyed, I almost understand that. But also, remind me what this entire series’ tag line is again? Something about war and how it doesn’t change, maybe?

    2277 is the year that the "Fall of Shady Sands" begins. That likely doesn't mean it was the actual year that the nuke detonated, but the beginning of an era of the city's downfall. To paraphrase from JuiceHead, the "Fall of Rome" is a lengthy period of time, even if the city of Rome fell on a specific date. It's likely that the timeline is implying that things began to go down hill for Shady Sands in 2277. That was the year the NCR won the First Battle of Hoover Dam, but it was a costly victory. It seems to imply that Shady Sands' downfall as a settlement started there, and then some years later - after the events of New Vegas - the city was destroyed by an atomic blast.

    the thing i immediately realized when "the bomb" was dropped in the final episode of the show. was the deep dark irony of destroying a town because it was not built by vault-tec. but, the only reason shady sands existed was because the vault dwellers of vault 15 left their vault due to over crowding and political infighting (the experiment in their vault was, what happens if you lock up a whole bunch of people with radically different political views in vault together?) and after leaving their vault somewhere in the early 2090's some of the dwellers used their vaults garden of eden creation kit (a device made by vault-tec) to build what would become the foundation of shady sands. hank however does not know that the only reason such a town was able to grow in the wasteland, was because of vault-tec. even if it was not in the way vault-tec had intended. and as the creator of this video says, this was a town built from the ground up, rather then being built on top of, or incorporated into ruins of the old world like basically all other towns in the fallout universe are. for this reason im kind of on the fence about the fact that they moved the location of the town so drastically in the tv show, in the games it was built in or close to death valley, where there were no pre war ruins, and the only reason they could build there was because of the Garden of Eden Creation Kit. i think placing it in the hearth of LA which is supposed to be called the "bone yard" (IE not a nice place to settle) at the time shady sands was founded. takes a little away from what made this town special compared to all the other towns in the wasteland.
