I don't really know anything about the zombie apocalypse stuff, but starting World War 3 is a chain of nuking that will kill billions and all of that for a bunch of Vault experiments? Come on!

Vault Tech's got enough money that they can easily conduct these experiments in isolated villages/towns or something without nuking the entire world.

Uhhh... The show basically confirms your "head canon" in season 2.

Also, I'm just gonna say that I absolutely hate how people will still claim that Todd hates New Vegas/Obsidian; he's gone on record multiple times saying that's not the case, the entirety of season 2 of the show was literally "New Vegas 2." The only reason your playthrough/ending of NV isn't canon is because in lore it's been about 15+ years since, and we all know nothing is ever permanent in Fallout.

I'm getting real tired of people spreading straight-up false information because it makes them feel better about a game they played when they were 10-13.

Edit: just gonna leave this article here for folks to read.

Woah wait that's the whole reason?

Okay I take back what I said, I thought they killed billions with nukes all so that they could conduct some stupid silly small scale experiments with a few 100 people per vault on whatever last remaining precious humans were left in the vaults.

Instead of say, kidnapping people, telling them they are the last survivors or some other bullshit and then experimenting on them.

Instead, killing billions to save precious few millions so that they could use the remaining resources, and conducting experiments to make humanity stronger and smarter was an ideal opportunity, but they completely underestimated the amount of time the radiation will remain on the surface which caused almost all the vault tech scientists and suits to die from old age or radiation themselves.

Correct?

It's because people get on their phones and don't actually watch it.

I understand if its a comfort show you have seen before that you put on for background noise but no dude they will do it with a brand new show some that they even want to actually watch and they just can't bring themselves to actually set the phone down and do it.

Then they have the nerve to ask you what's going on.

I'm finally on Season 6 of Game of Thrones; still can't remember dragon lady's name, the old man knight has a crush on her, young sellsword has a crush on her, most of the Stark kids, most of the Night's Watch.

I'm just really bad at remembering names, both real and fictional.

... How have you managed to play literally any other game then? It had decent graphics for 2015 and holds up ok today. If it looks that bad to you I can't imagine you're able to play anything but the most pristine AAAA games.

I keep coming back to this thread.

I was gonna say they're not actual zombies because they don't eat each other... But in every Fallout game (that I've played) there's literally a "Cannibalism" perk that lets you eat corpses for health. And The Ghoul most definitely has that perk in the show.

So... Yeah.
