Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By KaerMorhenResident: I love how the Vault Tec Corporation is so true to the real corporate jackasses you encounter in real life. The future dictators really would be the most unimpressive lamest people imaginable. That's kind of the "joke" or satire in the show that some fail to see. They think "why wouldn't everyone in Vault 33 be perfect genetic specimens of humanity," because Bud's buds are a management program made up of lame corporate suits convinced they're the answer to humanities problems. The real leaders, the people you would want in charge like Cooper Howard, played by Walton Goggins, are just the small players trying to avoid the chaos created by the idiot self-proclaimed "wizards of smart." Agreed. I think Kharn also hit the nail on the head. It's not that capitalism or nuclear tech (or corporations or patriotism) are bad, it's that it's all taken to hilarious extremes in the show- just like in the games. |

True...he's a somewhat realistic guy, doing what he has to do to survive, using all 4 of his braincells the best he can. I guess he's not a standard movie good guy but as far as the Fallout universe goes he's about as close as we ever get. |

You can't save the game unless you sleep in a bed, and you can't fast travel, so having settlements is pretty important if you want to get anything done. |

He turns feral if he quits taking that chem, which is basically becoming a zombie in layman’s terms. Given that, seems it's probably a nod to whatever drug the ghouls at Kiddie Carnival were working on to help cure their feral friends. Considering his comment after being hit with the syringer, it's likely a bunch of chems and nuclear waste that's been put in a blender though.
