From such a tiny Mojave Chapter to the incredibly massive Helios Brotherhood. What a story that was told here, from ragged power armor to wasteland riches. Amazing campaign of the Mojave Chapter.
I never thought about it until I was watching this video, but does anyone else feel like the Sierra Madre is another alternate universe version of Rapture, like Columbia from Bioshock Infinite? The Sierra Madre was created by a man called Frederick Sinclair, an eerily similar name to Andrew Ryan and the same last name as another Rapture celebrity. There's a Bioshock easter egg in the Sierra Madre, a poster with what looks like Rapture and an obvious Andrew Ryan picture. Rapture, Columbia, and the Sierra Madre all have technology decades ahead of their time, even for Fallout where it's already futuristic af. Rapture was built at the bottom of the ocean, and they have Plasmids, Adam, and the Big Daddies and their "relatives". Columbia had sustained nonstop flight suspending the entire city in the sky, the Plasmids with a different name that I can't remember for some reason, Adam but a little different which resulted in the different Plasmids, and the Songbird and similar bio-tech. The Sierra Madre had the Red Cloud, hardlight holograms that are capable of damaging and interacting with the physical world, matter replicators, and the weird mutants/ghost workers stuck inside their suits with the glowing green visors. Each of the three cities (the Sierra Madre isn't a proper city but still) has it's own kind of environmental transformation making them hard to access (underwater, in the sky and the Red Cloud). Each one has it's own unique technology that mimics supernatural powers (Plasmids, the Columbia Plasmids, and the matter replicators and hardlight holograms that seem to be able to be possessed almost). Each one has it's own kind of cybernetic horrors (Big Daddies and Co., Songbird and Co., and the weird Ghost Mutants and Co.). Lastly, each of the three started with the dream of one man, and then was destroyed in a conflict. TLDR: I haven't even seen anyone else make these connections between the Sierra Madre from Fallout and Rapture from Bioshock so I just wanted to leave a comment in the hopes that I'm not actually crazy for thinking they're meant to be extremely similar.
