Fun fact about the pink paste, in my playthrough I was helping Nick Valentine with his quest to find Eddie Winters and found some dead raiders in a police station. A note was on one of them and they were holding an intervention with one of them whom was addicted to the paste.
Yeah they're definitely not children my guy. First, we have evidence that ghoulified children do not continue to grow, and second even if they used to be the kids clearly they aren't anymore. Besides if you've ever gone there theres journals and terminals that mention the kids were getting sick and weak from eating the paste. Seems cut and dry to me. That's why they have less health. Something about it's just not good for you. I'm quite surprised Nate didn't mention that. It's not even hard to figure out.
@@dillongage There's a mix of theorys regarding the aging of ghouls if you look at ghouls in the earlier games. But agreed most likely not children maybe staff?

You're right, they are from 87. I'm playing through Fallout 3 at this very moment, so I can approve that. In F3 there is no Vault 81. And since the Capital Wasteland is the Washington-DC Area, Nate clearly made a small mistake here.
Is that Drifter lady a reference to Granny Rags from Dishonored? Granny Rags was a crazy lady who was friends with the plague rats. She spoke in that same crazed manner that the Drifter did as well. Idk. Maybe those who have played Dishonored can see the resemblance too.
@@dominickwood2982 that guy under Honningbrew meadery? I don't really think he fits into that category. His insane is different from hers. Hers is dissociative, while his is actively malicious. They're schizophrenic and psychopathic respectively
The whole "Yellow powder, white powder, burnt tree" thing, i'm pretty sure, is a reference to the materials required for making black powder (gunpowder). Yellow powder = Sulfur White powder = Potassium nitrate Burnt tree = Charcoal These three, in the right ratio, are used for making gunpowder. Neat!
Not sure you've covered it or not in a tiny details vid, but I learned recently that Billy, our favorite ghoul trapped in a fridge, also serves to date the moment of the divergence between reality and the fallout universe. In 1956, after many reports of children being trapped in abandoned refrigerators, the United States made it illegal for a manufacturer to produce a fridge that could not be opened from the inside. On top of everything else, Billy is likely also (if not exclusively) a reference to that act and the children who were ultimately trapped in similar refrigerators to meet a more grizzly fate than that of Billy.
All that tells us is the divergence happens sometime before 1956. The exact moment, to my knowledge, has never been revealed but until they actually state a solid time/date we just have to assume it happens any time before the earliest difference in history. I think coca cola came out in 1880s some time. I'm sure there's some weird inaccuracy in the historical paintings that would set it way ealier too
One more thing with the pink paste food. There's a random event where you find a group of dead raiders where one of the raiders has about 5 of the pink paste on him/her. Their skin is sometimes pinker too, and also have an intervention note on them. The note reads the rest of the raiders got scared of the raider eating the pink food substitute, as they were way more aggressive and violent. The note also gives the map marker where you can find the school if you haven't found it already, I think.
After almost two years of playing Fallout 4 on and off, I finally found the second nest of explosive molerats. Unfortunately I was busy chasing Northy (part of the Silver Shroud quest) across the Commonwealth. After a magazine or two, he stops shooting and just flees. I was curious how far he would run. Unfortunately for him, he ran into a large group of super mutants.
The Fallout variety are bigger & aggressive. That's basically it. Irl they're adorable little hairless guys that are well known for not getting cancer & are used in cancer research.
Nice try with grun, but sadly it seems to be just a name. green in german = "grün", the two dots above the u changes it into a different letter. To be honest I don't even know how to describe the ü-sound in english. "grun" sadly doesn't mean anything, at least in german.
@@marhawkman303 personally I prefer it when people just drop the umlaut since the sound it makes is based on the letter that comes after it. Change the coming letter and you change the sound it should make. Also it can make some words ridicoulous to read if vowels are behind the umlauted words.
Surprisingly, I found all of these variants in my main playthrough of Fallout 4. Even the exploding molerat, somehow, spawned from a creature crate in my settlement. It was so bizarre, I let it out hoping to get a molerat, and it immediately exploded on a settler and killed them.
I like that it emphasizes that some raiders use different tactics, but I was also excited to see a completely new and fun to deal with Fallout-friendly enemy with the explosive mole rats. And then disappointed when I never saw it again beyond that early-game base.
Funny story actually, I had the cage dlc installed and I was trapping some mole rats for my red rocket sanctuary, I somehow managed to trap an exploding mole rat but it was marked as a glowing mole rat and after about like 10 minutes something happened and my mole rats turned hostile the alleged exploding mole rat (That I called chorizo for some reason) detonated, a weird story really. R.I.P chorizo you will be missed.
When it comes to the explosive molerat dialogue, the phrase “yellow powder, white powder, burnt tree” is referring to the recipe for black powder. Yellow powder (sulfur), white powder (potassium nitrate), burnt tree (charcoal).
I think the Vim drink is an Easter egg to Irn Bru, Scotland’s native and most popular drink. Pepsi or Coke are the most bought drinks in nearly every country in the world. Except in Scotland, which is Irn Bru. Irn Bru is Scotland’s native drink and is the most bought and drank drink here. So Scotland is the only country (or one of the only countries) where Pepsi or Cola isn’t the dominate drink.
10:51 would have been a fun fact if it would be true, but the word grun doesn’t exist in German. „Grün“ is the word he wanted to say, but since ä,ö and ü don’t exist in the English language, you English speakers pronounce them as a,o and u.
It's rather common for people who don't speak German to not know that the proper transliteration is "Gruen" when using a character set that lacks Umlauts. Especially u since people may not even notice.
The woman from the exploding mole rats is a reference to "Tic tock" a girl from Hunger games; Catching Fire. As is the reference "Tic tock tic tock tick tok" and the "Burnt tree." The famed tree that is struck by lightning every hour, signifiying the time of day.
Theory about mole rats: Not the raiders, but the U.S. Army trained the mole rats as a small weapon against any enemy. If the mole rat could dig or hide, it can easily sneak attack. Strategy for the future of war lol
Intriguing idea. I know there was a plan during WWII to attach small bombs to bats and release them over enemy territory at night. Supposedly, because the bats would be in foreign territory away from their colony, they'd look for shelter to sleep during the day, and would end up flying and crawling into the roofs and eaves of buildings. Then when the explosive was triggered, it would start a fire; and enough small fires starting at the same time, all over the city, could turn into a firestorm. Fortunately that plan wasn't very successful. I always felt sorry for the bats, I like bats.
1:46 "These hilarious, formerly-furry friends..." No, sir. They are not formerly furry. The mole rat enemy type is based on the real-world species known as the naked mole rat. They're called the NAKED mole rat because of the fact that they have no fur. Instead, they are covered in a leather-like, protective hide. They look just like the mole rats in the games, except only about the size of an adult human's thumb.
...though, that last comment by the drifter, in the den full of exploding ones, is pretty interesting...and alarming, coming from somebody so insane. "Yellow powder. White powder. Burnt tree." Combining sulfur (yellow powder), niter (also known as saltpeter...a white powder) and charcoal (burnt tree) in the correct proportions, will create gunpowder. Guess we know where she got all her mines from...
I always love these videos. I have roughly a 20 minute walk to my first college class in the morning, so it's always refreshing to put on my backpack, start up a Nate list, and walk :)
Always viewed the Pink Ghouls to be a kind of Soylent Green reference. Some of the descriptions always came across as a reference to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease or Kuru even. Given the robobrain facility was nearby, they were feeding kids and faculty the rejected brains from said facility to eliminate the evidence (Like Fried Green Tomatoes "barbecue").
if you have hancock as your companion while visiting the museum of witchcraft he will mention the smell of the place being so bad that the last time he smelled such thing was an exploded mole rat because someone put mines on them, now it all makes sense
It is said that not even the greatest energy weapons can pierce it's iron curtain, yet, only a true American patriot wielding the almighty commie whacker can defeat the red menace.
6:00 uh... it's also possible that the rat was rigged with explosives in the hopes that it would detonate when it returned to its burrow, ending a vermin problem? this explains why it's there, and also why the raiders fight em.
Yellow powder white powder burnt tree. This may be reffering to a recipe for gunpowder. Yellow powder (sulphur) white powder (potassium nitrate) burnt tree (charcoal) all are Ingredients for gunpowder
As far as _paste,_ there's also the note we find on a raider. Apparently an attempt at intervention, suggesting a comrade lay off the paste as it's changed him, and scaring his buddies.
Yes! Like you said at 1:26, here I am thanking you featuring more than just "individual types" of creatures. 😉😁 ...Which actually is one of two reasons I had drifted away from your channel (the other was some negativity about Fallout 76, which game I still enjoy playing 😑). I didn't just want to see variations, but actual stuff I may have missed. Same reasons I enjoyed ShoddyCast's Fallout & Skyrim lore series's, because it was unique tidbits that I couldn't easily figure out or discover for myself. Which, if you ever wanted to do a similar type of Fallout lore series, I would love to see your approach even if much would be the same facts at first (we have more background, info, & general lore now after all! 🤷♂️). Thank you yet again for all your editing, research, and fun entertainment! 👍🙂
The exploding like rats are kinda based on real world stuff I’d say...The Soviets attached anti tank mines to dogs in WW2...They’d only feed the dogs underneath tanks and other vehicles...Before they’d use them in the battle they’d starve the dogs for a few days and then release them...The dogs would run to underneath the German tanks and trucks and a long pole attached on top of a harness would contact the bottom of the vehicle and trigger the mines....Unfortunately the dogs, when released ran to the nearest vehicles...Which were Russian.

Grun is not the german word for Green, its Grün.
But in the german version, this behemoth is also called Grun
The pink ghouls are mutant pre-teens. That's why they're weaker. :/
Mutant Pre teens? Nah, they're just hormonal.

Theory about mole rats:
Not the raiders, but the U.S. Army trained the mole rats as a small weapon against any enemy. If the mole rat could dig or hide, it can easily sneak attack. Strategy for the future of war lol
Intriguing idea.
I know there was a plan during WWII to attach small bombs to bats and release them over enemy territory at night. Supposedly, because the bats would be in foreign territory away from their colony, they'd look for shelter to sleep during the day, and would end up flying and crawling into the roofs and eaves of buildings. Then when the explosive was triggered, it would start a fire; and enough small fires starting at the same time, all over the city, could turn into a firestorm.
Fortunately that plan wasn't very successful. I always felt sorry for the bats, I like bats.
@@zxyatiywariii8 Yup, an easy and efficient plan, especially in fallout's setting. Still brutal though...
Nate: as you can see somethings very wrong with this chick.
*turns off flashlight and unloads a clip into her in the background*
1:46 "These hilarious, formerly-furry friends..." No, sir. They are not formerly furry. The mole rat enemy type is based on the real-world species known as the naked mole rat. They're called the NAKED mole rat because of the fact that they have no fur. Instead, they are covered in a leather-like, protective hide. They look just like the mole rats in the games, except only about the size of an adult human's thumb.
...though, that last comment by the drifter, in the den full of exploding ones, is pretty interesting...and alarming, coming from somebody so insane. "Yellow powder. White powder. Burnt tree." Combining sulfur (yellow powder), niter (also known as saltpeter...a white powder) and charcoal (burnt tree) in the correct proportions, will create gunpowder. Guess we know where she got all her mines from...
3:50 if you listen to Drifters dialogue shell spout off the chemical composition for gunpowder. Though not in scientific terms.
I quite like sometimes focusing on one-off creatures like Grun, keep up the great work on the vids
The molerat Woman reminds me of Granny Rags from Dishonored, her lines even.
The Ghost Girl of Grantchester Mystery Mansion is obviously the Scariest thing in Fallout 4
I always love these videos. I have roughly a 20 minute walk to my first college class in the morning, so it's always refreshing to put on my backpack, start up a Nate list, and walk :)
Nate I've been playing fallout 4 for years and just as it was getting boring you made it fun all over again, thank you!
Always viewed the Pink Ghouls to be a kind of Soylent Green reference. Some of the descriptions always came across as a reference to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease or Kuru even. Given the robobrain facility was nearby, they were feeding kids and faculty the rejected brains from said facility to eliminate the evidence (Like Fried Green Tomatoes "barbecue").
Omg that's dark lol
“Turn up that radiator” (flips radiator dial up) “ah ya that’s the stuff”
Lil Nate: "I wanna be a Buffalo!"
Me: thinks about the movie Tusk
I've memorized like everything in fallout 4 never have i heard of some of these spooky bois man
if you have hancock as your companion while visiting the museum of witchcraft he will mention the smell of the place being so bad that the last time he smelled such thing was an exploded mole rat because someone put mines on them, now it all makes sense
The rarest creature is the commie bear.
Forget the Yao Gui. Commie bear’s the stuff o’ nightmares.
It is said that not even the greatest energy weapons can pierce it's iron curtain, yet, only a true American patriot wielding the almighty commie whacker can defeat the red menace.
Nate: it's my chanel leave me alone
I wasn't expecting a good laugh at the end xD
Hey Nate u make really good videos keep it up!
Nate, this is one of the most binge worthy series I've seen on RUclips. Kudos dude!
16:27 Beautiful framing and colour scheme
Every time something blows up in my game i hear "that's a lot of damage" its hilarious
Same, but for when I make iron boots in minecraft, and put them on, I hear that white Van's meme
I love these videos! They're very informative about the game, and sometimes help me find rare things in the game.
The West Coast Mutants are actually a post-war creation by The Master in 2102.
6:00
uh... it's also possible that the rat was rigged with explosives in the hopes that it would detonate when it returned to its burrow, ending a vermin problem? this explains why it's there, and also why the raiders fight em.
I know it might be boring but I would like to see a fallout game completely in prewar just to see what life would be like
10:00 isn't grun just a behemoth?
I still play fallout everyday till this day and I still haven’t gotten tired of it because almost everyday there’s a new fabulous mod out
10 months later, still got tired of it?
Mister Crappy Face I had it since 2017, and I still love it
@@nobodyxdel2390 I got it since late 2019. Surprised people still play it.
Barely.
Mister Crappy Face I play it everyday. It’s amazing for me. Especially with my meticulous mod list.
@@nobodyxdel2390 What about Skyrim?

Yellow powder white powder burnt tree. This may be reffering to a recipe for gunpowder. Yellow powder (sulphur) white powder (potassium nitrate) burnt tree (charcoal) all are Ingredients for gunpowder
As far as _paste,_ there's also the note we find on a raider. Apparently an attempt at intervention, suggesting a comrade lay off the paste as it's changed him, and scaring his buddies.
"I want to be a buffalo" ONLY NATE would say that...
I really like these videos because of the lore keep up the good work Nate!
Grun isn't green in german. Its "Grün" the umlaut is important since "Grun" isn't a word at all.^^
Semantics
Stimmt, aber viele (die meisten?) Englischsprechenden ignorieren die Punkte einfach und setzen das ü mit dem u gleich.
Yes! Like you said at 1:26, here I am thanking you featuring more than just "individual types" of creatures. 😉😁
...Which actually is one of two reasons I had drifted away from your channel (the other was some negativity about Fallout 76, which game I still enjoy playing 😑). I didn't just want to see variations, but actual stuff I may have missed.
Same reasons I enjoyed ShoddyCast's Fallout & Skyrim lore series's, because it was unique tidbits that I couldn't easily figure out or discover for myself. Which, if you ever wanted to do a similar type of Fallout lore series, I would love to see your approach even if much would be the same facts at first (we have more background, info, & general lore now after all! 🤷♂️).
Thank you yet again for all your editing, research, and fun entertainment! 👍🙂
The exploding like rats are kinda based on real world stuff I’d say...The Soviets attached anti tank mines to dogs in WW2...They’d only feed the dogs underneath tanks and other vehicles...Before they’d use them in the battle they’d starve the dogs for a few days and then release them...The dogs would run to underneath the German tanks and trucks and a long pole attached on top of a harness would contact the bottom of the vehicle and trigger the mines....Unfortunately the dogs, when released ran to the nearest vehicles...Which were Russian.
4:19 lol nice Easter egg to the tribute of panem trilogy 😂 Tik tok and a burnt tree? Sounds familiar
