I can bust him for everything stupid he did. What I'm saying is that rich powerful oil heir and politician don't give shits about environment. Not exactly a revelation of the Lovecraftian SAN blasting variety.

No, the Gulpers were birthed from humans. We saw the pregnancy video where a woman gets eaten by her own Gulper spawn. It's the most horrifying moment in the show. But yes, if said woman had a sister or brother who had a one-eyed child, then those Gulpers could be the Overseer's Great...

I say EXPERIENCE means NOTHING in a loud voice on INTERNET. Thus FUNNY and satire means guy wrong! Seriously, though, the assumptions of people giving a shit are kind of hilarious. But I conceded anyway. There's not enough world building for explaining Vault-Tec;s reasoning even if I find RL...

There's also the fact, and this should have been obvious but lots of so-called progressives don't fucking understand basic human psychology so they think otherwise, a lot of people in power don't give a shit. "Oh, this will destroy the world in two hundred years. Whoop de fucking do." Ditto...

Let's face it, fucking morons thought, "oh, no one would actually pollute and destroy the environment if they could make just as much money sustainably." Dipshits. Thankfully, we're finally waking up to the realization that no one actually gives a shit about doing the right thing and will do...

Actually, this is the one area where it's upfront. The Gulpers are originally born from human women so it just means that he's related to one of their family.

Just to be clear, which is it, am I making up shit or am I limited by the real life conditions of my region? Also, I am the one who is fowarding conspiratorial monopolist tendencies. But sure, I concede the argument, @Bradylama. You have demonstrated I have no evidence to prove that Vault-Tec...

Ironically, one of its most praised elements is why it never worked for me. The Master ditches his plan once the player points out they're sterile and I'm like, "Would he really stop?" I mean, just keep humans in breeding pens and turn them later. The Enclave have COMMITMENT to their genocide.

Like I said, my experience is the Evangelical Right, Corporate America, and Far Right politicians in my state are all one giant circle that does not compete against one another but have each other's hands in their pockets. They collude rather than compete because their enemies are not other...

Dude, I live in Appalachia where the energy companies killed everything better than COAL and still campaign on it constantly. Vast amounts of effort have been done to kill the attempts to modernize the industry and that includes turning down payments from the government upgrade. What NONSENSE...

Eh, the in-jokes aren't something I care much about one way or the other. For me, it boils down to: * Vault City - the compelling society based around a vault and science rule in a Wasteland society. * New Reno - The mafia families, their questlines, and the various quests like boxing champ...

I just don't get this argument. 1. Wilzig doesn't know the code, so they need Hank or another Vault-Tec executive. 2. Cold fusion doesn't facilitate the Enclave's plan because they have no desire to rebuild the surface. They're an isolationist genocidal group that has no need for cold fusion...

Who says they don't? Especially if they're the same group. Wilzig doesn't necessarily have the code, though. He managed to get the plans for the cold fusion system and Moldaver got Hank. Their plan worked. It just got fucked up by Wilzig getting found out before he could escape freely. Not...

Vault-Tec's plan may be, "I want to burn the world to rule the ashes" but at least it's an ethos.

Does it fail? Vault-Tec and the Enclave are one of the guiding powers in the Wasteland for 200 years. They live in luxury while just about everyone else is utterly fucked over. I mean, just from the top of my head there's a SHIT ton of assumptions here. 1. The Enclave probably does have the...

I think the show's version, which I defend but not to the level of thinking its particularly genius, has always been the idea of short term gain justification and war profiteering regardless of long term sustainability. The show's argument is that this is not a matter of ignorance but the people...

Well before the retcon of the show, I thought all of the crazy tests the Vault-Tec folk were doing were for the Enclave with the latter being the setting's ultimate big bad. Yeah, I wouldn't make that comparison. "Native Americans are drug dealing raiders who engaged in constant unprovoked...

Of course they were ordered to open fire on sight, it was the base for the massacres and atrocities of the Great Khans that they'd carried out against towns, camps, and soldiers. It just also happened to be their tribal camp. The incompetence of the commander was that they didn't realize the...

Vault-Tec answers to the Enclave and is a part of it. Hasn't this been canon since Fallout 2? Bethesda knows this and had Vault 101 deliberately refuse the codes that could order them to open up.
