...and so the Courier tax fraud comes to an end ... for now. In the new economy of the Mojave Wasteland, foreclosures continued, money was spilled, and many filed and evaded - just as they had in the Old World. Because taxes ... taxes never changes.
The NCR was baffled at how much tax fraud courier 6 had committed. The amount of taxes the NCR was missing due to the courier's mass fraud made them file for bankruptcy 2 years later after general Oliver stepped down for going over budget on his vacation days. The NCR rangers that were hired to find the courier to bring him down also played a role in the NCR's bankruptcy. The NCR and New IRS was never heard from again. The kings learned from the courier's ways, learning that taxes were nothing but trouble, that taxes, were nothing but a parasitic biproduct of bureaucracy. The kings stood up the new IRS that the NCR put in. They even attempted to get a man named "the joker" to help them, but not even this joker would take on the New IRS. The protest led the brutal death of the kings via asphyxiation of tax dollars. The great khans managed to escape the New IRS but were out of money by the time the crossed the Nevada border. Due to New IRS stealing the money that great khans rightfully earned, they all starved to death, since they couldn't buy any food. The great khans were forgotten shortly after. Caesars legion fought hard against the New IRS, but to no avail. Caesar succumbed to his brain tumor since he couldn't afford medical bills, and none of his associates had any spare change. The legate attempted to commit tax fraud, but was executed shortly after his attempt. Vulpes Inculta attempted to run away from the New IRS, but the IRS caught up with him and crucified him on their brand new cross made of solid gold. The boomers successfully committed tax fraud thanks to the couriers methods they were taught. The courier even spared some his illegal tax fraud money to invest in a b-29 bomber at the bottom of lake mead and a money printer. The boomers used the technology to drop counterfeit NCR currency across the land in an attempt to overinflate the NCR's cash driving the New IRS into madness. To add the final nail in the coffin of the New IRS, they used their money printer to invent currency: BoomerCoin. The currency gained widespread popularity among the savages they hated so much. However, due to the savages investing in BoomerCoin so much, the boomers dropped their bigotry in order to smite the New IRS. The brotherhood of steel soon got word of BoomerCoin. They attempted to make their own currency aswell, they named it: "SteelCoin". Unlike boomercoin however, they were unsuccessful in launching their new currency. The brotherhood of steel thought BoomerCoin would go nowhere, so they stuck to their NCR currency and gained mass depression from having no money. They eventually committed mass suicide by blowing up their own bunker since they couldnt handle the mass taxing of the new IRS.
The courier who entered the big mt became one the smartest minds of the 24 century in the end a saying old world blues for people who are so fascinated with the pass
The new California republic celebrated its 2nd victory at hoover dam established definitive control over the Mojave wasteland soon after they negotiated to annex the strip freeside and many surrounding communities the Mojave wasteland at long last had fallen under the NCRs banner
The Courier, fair and even-handed in his dealings throughout the Wasteland, was honored by the NCR for his support of the military at Hoover Dam. He was presented with the Golden Branch, the highest civilian decoration given by the Republic...
The Courier, a mercenary at heart, helped the Legion achieve victory at Hoover Dam, he was minted a gold coin by Caesar, for his contributions throughout the Mojave Wasteland
@@super.cool.91 tabitha and rhoanda went east through Caesars salads land the story concerning the duo were collected and published proving to be popular to children
@@genjibeeps998 invigorated by his travels with the courier, raul once more took up his guns in memory of his lost rafaela. soon after, the mojave was filled with tales of the ghost-vaquero who hunts down those who prey on the weak
"Dean Domino, entertainer, singer... thief... explored the Sierra Madre not long after he was rescued by the Courier. Once he left the theater, the Sierra Madre recognized him as a guest, and many doors opened to him. He had to admit, it had been built to last. During his search, he came across the final records of Vera and Sinclair, and realized what happened the night the bombs fell. He felt strangely sad for a moment, and he had no idea why. Shrugging it off, his mind turned instead to where the Courier had come from. Vegas still survived, out there in the Mojave. Its sights, sounds... and casinos, ripe for the taking. So giving the Sierra Madre one last nod and a wink, he set off beyond the Cloud to begin again"
Nah "Dean Domino, entertainer, singer... thief... had his last show on the Sierra Madre stage. The heist he spent over two hundred years planning fell apart, just as the first, by underestimating his partner's strength. Not long after the Courier left the Villa, the lights in the theater shut off, one by one. Only Dean's Hologram remained on stage, singing silently to an empty room. Still... as consumed as he had been with its riches and ruin, the Sierra Madre had held him captive long ago."
This comment brought out so much emotion in me. Fallout new vegas will always have a place in my heart till the end of time. So many great memories so many emotion playing through the main story and DLC but this song really makes you feel the weight of your actions through out, may they be good or bad, even though there is no perfect ending because the wasteland is a harsh place. I thank you for that comment. 🥰
"And so the Couriers road came to an end...for now. In the new world of the Mojave Wasteland, fighting continued, blood was spilled, and many lived and died just as they had in the Old World. Because war...war never changes."
That ending theme got me really emotional first time I listened to it It makes you realize that there is no "good ending" so to speak , no matter the ending you chose , some will live but some will die too Best Fallout game ever made.
I think this theme tells you there is no *perfect* ending. Someone HAS to lose, and whether or not you think well of the Legion, Mr House or the NCR and many others the world is a connected place. For every person who wins, someone has to lose. And this captures that feeling perfectly, the triumph of victory...and the underlining sadness of defeat.
Truer words had never been written. For a while I couldn't finish New Vegas because I was obsessed with getting the "perfect ending." I tried by all means possible, but as Dead Money teaches you, sometimes you have to let it go ...
I’m still sad at the fact Boone doesn’t get an ending cutscene, least I don’t know of. He was one of my favorite characters next to Raul and ED-E or Arcade. I loved his story and found it interesting as hell.
The cost isn't what matters.. That's what makes it a depressing triumph.. Maybe you sacrificed everything for nothing.. Or maybe you sacrificed nothing for everything.. A devil-may-care warrior, trodding the path with complete impunity, ending up saving the world simply because he was in the wrong place at the right time.. Or a true branded hero, doing exactly as fate would so please, saving the world not because he wanted to, but because he had to. Doesn't matter how you walk that path.. And it doesn't matter who you are at the end.. The world's still a post-apocalyptic wasteland filled with danger and dread no matter what difference you make.. Because war.. .. War never changes..
I imagine a scene like this: The vault dweller looking over the village of Aroyyo, happy that those of Vault 13 were able to survive. The chosen one, looking at the lights of New Aroyyo, in the distance the lights of the new NCR, New Reno, and San Francisco in the distance. The brotherhood of steel working together with the mutants of the wastes, building a new world from the ashes of Chicago. The Lone Wanderer watching caravan after caravan shipping water to those who desperately need it. The wanderer settles down in Moriarty's bar, not letting vanity cost lives. The Sole Survivor looking over Diamond City, happy that the world can be at peace with the spectre of the Institute gone. The Courier looks over the Mojave, the lights of New Vegas in the distance. To the eastern horizon lies winds bearing the mark of the Divide, a scar from the Courier's forgotten past, with Ulysses still holding vigil. To the north lies Big Mountain, it's lights aglow with the hum of new discoveries. A cloud on the Eastern horizon acts as a final tombstone to the Sierra Madre. Out of sight, Veronica treks to that forgotten place, to reunite with her lost lover, Christine. And, just barely in sight, are the fires of Zion, where Joshua Graham remembers what the Courier said, and smiles. Everyone wants to save the world, but each has a different way of doing it. This difference causes war. War. War never changes. We fight for the same reason. We fight for ourselves. War never changes. But men change. Through the roads they walk. Chosen or not, Dweller or Wanderer, we each are Survivors, and Couriers. We deliver our message. What the message is depends on us. Greed for Dead Money, Old World Blues, or a piece of Broken Steel, they all depend on us. We walk that Lonesome Road, but it's up to us to keep Honest Hearts. Aside from that, once we're done, all we can do is stand back. Stand back and watch the Fallout.
"The Couriers finally, really did it. They blew up the lands West and East of the Mojave... damning them all to hell. The act was discovered 200 years later, as other couriers explored the Mojave wastes. There, they saw NCR relics, reminders of their once proud history." - Ulysses, in Lonesome Road's Wild Wasteland Ending if you nuke both the NCR and Legion.
Most of the other games' psychopath endings: *Muahahahaha, look at me - I am an almighty demigod of this world!* Fallout: New Vegas psychopath ending: *My God, what have I done...*
Yeah, in FNV you play through it, siding with lets say The Legion and after you finish your like "Hey, I wonder what the other ending are like." and... when you finished siding with them all, you just say these words "Where.... where's the good ending?"
This track is both haunting, phenomenal, and makes any ending, any evil person you kill, any landmark or town you help or destroy, in a word, Bittersweet, with the mix between the screams and yells of those when the bombs dropped, and the sad yet..."end" like music, it truly shows that with new upbringings, (such as humanity's rebirth after the bombs fell), comes evil, corruption, death, violence, rape, the music almost tells us directly, that the same things will still happen, the only change you made was to either increase or decrease the scale on how much it happens. As the game states, "people lived and died, just as they did in the old world"
This was the last game that let you build real endings and got to pick outcomes that were built through your own character. It's a crime we don't get games like this anymore.
@@kvdjrplays7794 The difference is every choice and path in New Vegas feels justifiable to pick. Every choice in Outer World feels meaningless, since you're in a Marvel-humor world that actively detests you.
One of the few times a ending leaves me satisfied. I didn’t want more, I had no unanswered questions, all plot points were covered, no loose ends. It just ended, for good.
I’ve already requested this to play at my funeral. I’ve also requested my friends and family to tell stories about how crap of a courier I was whilst it’s playing. “And so the courier walked out of the Mojave and into the gathering storm of the funeral home, where he ate an ungodly amount of sausage rolls at a woman’s wake, a woman of which he wasn’t acquainted with in the slightest”.
Friend, why an ungodly amount? *And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.* Revelation 21:6 *He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.* John 3:36 *but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.* John 4:14 _He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water._ John 7:38 *Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:* *and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?* John 11:25-26 P.s.- I know about Three Dog
You’ve heard stories of the Sierra Madre Casino. We all have. This story’s different than the others. It’s all in promise of beginnings and the ending. The survivors of the Sierra Madre thought about gathering at the fountain and waiting for the courier. In the end the collars' silence made them uneasy, and the fear of turning on each other made them hesitate and leave the goodbyes unspoken. The radio message at the fountain was enough for them, and there was no need to add another farewell on top of all they had suffered. Dog forgot himself as did the voice that raged within him. After their passing a new voice spoke within the mutant's shell. It was difficult for the voice to remember the two it once was. There was the beast, Dog, consumed by hunger and the other in reverse. The one consumed by control. Both were driven by need for the other. The Courier brought them together somehow. Joined the two into one. All that happened at the Sierra Madre was a faint memory to the new personality like a flickering light in the clouds of the mind. The new voice did not think of the courier again until the battle at the Divide reached his ears. The battle between the two couriers, beneath the torn skies and the old world flag, each bearing a message for the other. And the mutant prayed the courier that had saved him had been saved in return. Dean Domino; entertainer, singer, thief... explored the Sierra Madre not long after he was rescued by the courier. Once he left the theater the Sierra Madre recognized him as a guest, and many doors opened to him. He had to admit it had been built to last. During his search he came across the final records of Vera and Sinclair and realized what happened the night the bombs fell. He felt strangely sad for a moment, and he had no idea why. Shrugging it off his mind turned instead to where the courier had come from. Vegas still survived out there in the Mojave. Its sights, sounds, and casinos ripe for the taking. So giving the Sierra Madre one last nod, and a wink, he set off beyond the cloud to begin again. Christine, her mission complete, found new purpose as the Sierra Madre's warden. She watched over it silently by choice. Over time, the ghost people came to see her as one of the holograms. They would watch silently as she walked among them. At times Christine thought of the courier who had kept Elijah's hand from her throat. The courier reminded her of the other courier she had met in the Big Empty, and she wondered if the two had found each other at last. She did not think of them again until she heard the legends of the Divide. The Divide where the two messengers, the two couriers, fought beneath an ancient flag at the edge of the world. Elijah: You've heard of the Sierra Madre Casino. Christine: We all have. The legend. The curses. Dean: Some foolishness about it lying in the middle of a city of dead. Dog: A city of ghosts. God: Beneath a blood-red cloud. Dean: A bright shining monument reaching out luring treasure hunters to their doom. An illusion. Christine: A promise that you can change your fortunes. Begin again. Elijah: Finding it though, that's not the hard part. It's letting go. Dean: It's letting go. Christine: It's letting go. Dog: It's letting go. God: It's letting go.
I never forget, when I saw an ending and heard this music, with voice, that was speaking about consequences of my actions... and I never forgive myself, for skipping dialogues and first passing game by stupid follow the mark and do this task
Hey Karabiner, if you want some new and beautiful memories read the Bible and get to know God! Changed my life. Doomer to bloomer. KJV in English or Luther's Heiligeschrift in German. God bless you!
such a nice endgame soundtrack for the last Obsidian made Fallout game. gonna miss Fallout from them. Good times since Fallout 1. thanks for extended theme upload
@@Ledoux26Not really unless they change fallout 4 as well. Knowing project purity inevitably leads to the xenophobic fascist BOS in fallout 4 makes any story in D.C uninteresting.
As it had been in the years before the Great War, Big MT… the Big Empty… became home to one of the brightest minds of the 23rd century. The Courier watched over the Big Empty for years to come, caring for it, and keeping its discoveries safe until they were needed to help others. Which had always been Big MT’s purpose. Past the laboratories and Science, it had always been intended as a place to build the future of all mankind.
The thing that gets me with this is that it’s nothing like other games ending. Most other games I complete I feel accomplished like “it’s finally over, amazing experience”. However, despite the fact that New Vegas literally ends after this, credits and all, I never felt accomplished, successful, or even completed. It always felt like there was something more, and that your victory at Hoover Dam was not a time of celebration, mourning, or even sadness, but rather a time of reflection. One of few times I just stare at the screen shellshocked.
"Arcade was proud to have been one of the defenders who helped repel the Legion from Hoover Dam. He was prouder still to see the area freed from the shackles of the NCR and Mr. House. Though independence for New Vegas was not all he hoped it could be, Arcade used his Enclave knowledge and technology to keep order wherever he could."
It'd be kinda dumb to give us a great ending with many ending slides, since the game allows you to continue playing after the ending, thus giving you a chance to make changes, thus making the ending slides meaningless
If you decide to blow up the institute and leave your synth son behind: And so the Sole Survivor of Vault 111 wandered the commonwealth aimlessly. Their search for their son coming to an end. Shaun died never seeing the fruition of the institutes plan to redefine humanity; his synth clone left to die like the rest of the institue and yet the destruction of the boogeyman of the commonwealth changed nothing. Raiders would still destroy local settlements attempting to rebuild society one piece at a time and synths were still persecuted and misunderstood. The Minutemen were still shattered with no general to lead them, the castle was left for nature to take over once again becoming a den for Mirelurks. Preston Garvey and the settlers from Quincy settled peacefully in the sole survivors old home of Sanctuary doing their best to fend off from raider attacks. Nick Valentine continued on with his private eye lifestyle acting as an ambassador for synthkind, Piper and her sister travelled west; hearing of a land more stable than the commonwealth rumors of a new california republic. Strong found the milk of human kindness he so desperately was looking for and tried his best to help with human-super mutant relationships proving himself a valuable asset to the sole survivor. Codsworth decided to follow his master where ever they went. Perhaps the sole survivor brought Codsworth along as a reminder of the family he once had. The loyal dogmeat followed the sole survivor to the grave, living the rest of his life happily with his owner. Hancock returned to his way of life as mayor of Goodneighbour being of the people for the people. His brother McDonough was eventually killed for being a synth spy for the institute and was replaced by his receptionist Geneva. Diamond City the so called great green jewel of the commonwealth still resented the ghouls. Many ghouls decided to migrate to the slog with their own kind to harvest tarberries for the commonwealth. Paladin Danse, excommunicated from the East chapter Brotherhood of Steel for being a synth headed toward the west, where he hears of a more accepting Brotherhood inevitably joining The Brotherhood of Steel against their campaign toward the NCR. MacCready went on to continue being a gun-for-hire in the commonwealth offering his services to the highest bidder. X6-88 without purpose continued to reclaim synths for the destroyed institute. He would follow his base programming regardless of whether he had free will or not. Deacon and the rest of the Railroad continued to help synths where ever possible but with the institute destroyed and no more synths being produced they would eventually disband and try to help the commonwealth become a better place to live in. Cait would eventually go her own way refusing to be sold into slavery again. In a world where the strong survive, she refused to help rebuild the commonwealth and travelled to a fabled land in which slavery was outlawed. The Brotherhood left a couple outposts in the commonwealth recruiting local wastelanders and hoarding pre-war technology for the better of humanity. The Prydwen returned to the Capital wasteland keeping tabs open on the Commonwealth division. The Commonwealth was forever changed because war, war never changes. just something I thought of on the top of my head
The music and ambience of FNV doesn’t usually affect me that much, but for some reason this theme gets me all misty-eyed. One of, if not *the* best game ever made
Почему-то мне очень нравится эта музыка... Будто бы приключение окончились и все страдания, радости, позади... Весь путь окончен но мы видим ради чего...
I also remember hearing this, long before finishing the game, in the human sacrifice room of Vault 11, and honestly it was so relaxing, I didn't even care that I got locked in a room and completely eviscerated by robots, the pre-recorded intercom voice was telling me that I was a really good person and my sacrifice would help the vault in dealing with their overpopulation and lack of resources. And despite the fact everyone else in the vault was completely dead by this point and there was no population to control, nor resources to save; I still felt really proud to have some random long-dead overseer who never met me calling me the hero of the vault, there was so much sincerity in his voice, and there was a motivational slideshow, they laid ourt a nice chair with whiskey and a cigar box for me, and the whole time this music was playing, for the first five times I didn't even try to fight back when they deployed the big robot death squad. I mean if there was a way to continue playing the game after the battle of Hoover Dam, if I finished doing everything that I had to do in the Mojave wasteland, finished all the DLC and sidequests, I'd probably just head off to Vault 11 and get sacrificed again to finish it, because as meaningless and unjustified as that sacrifice was; it's the best way to die in the game, with this music playing, I won't accept the courier dying in any other way. For some reason this music doesn't seem to play in Vault 11 for other copies of the game, I don't know how I ended up with it, I'm glad that I did though, as much as the PS3 version of the game has so many game breaking bugs and glitches and the lagging is intolerable; this music playing in Vault 11 is one of the things it did right.
Something deeply somber about this music. It’s not heroic like you would expect, because there is no true “good” ending. The world is a shadow of what it used to be, with struggle and suffering everywhere. But there is a glimmer of hope too. No matter what, even in the worst situations, mankind marches on.
I love how its triumphic, completing, hopeful and at the same time its also haunting, mysterious and uncertain - and therefore fitting every ending and the general theme of the series. Its so perfectly done they didtn bothered to give it a name that theres at least 1 flaw.
It’s fitting for the Courier being the next canonized saint, and yet it’s fitting for the courier being the worst thing to happen since the bombs fell.
Well. I came across this game not so long ago but… this track. It’s like a kind of nostalgia for the things which never happened to you. It’s like comprehension of the fact that the world develops on its on and still will continue existing even if you close your eyes. It’s like walking through the early morning downtown when there’s none outside. I think I should finally play fnv.
This song is honestly my favourite ending song for the fallout games, it feels so emotional and melancholic, almost as if beating the legate, taking the dam and the strip all had unforseen consequences, a pyrrhic victory, you won, but at what cost?
It doesn't convey that to me. To me it sounds like just the end of a long journey, its melancholic, bittersweet. You've been here, made a mark on the world and that's it. Life just goes on.
"You've heard of the Sierra Madre Casino. We all have. The legends, the curses. Foolishness about it lying in the middle of a city of the dead, buried beneath a blood red cloud. A bright shining monument luring treasure hunters to their doom. The world's most famous stars and entertainers were invited to its grand opening. An invitation was a sign of exclusiveness. The opening was supposed to symbolize a road to a brighter future, not just for the world... but for all who came to its doors. A chance for anyone to begin again. Except...the Madre never opened... The War froze it in time, like a big flashbulb going off The Grand Opening, one big ending of humanity. Its still out there, in the wastes, preserved, just waiting for someone to crack it open. But getting to it...that's not the hard part... *_Its letting go..._*
"The Think Tank basement, filled with the lobotomized robotical frames of the doctors, now served as a graveyard. The monitors had recorded the battle in its entirety, including the Think Tank's final shrill terrified screams, whimpers, and pleas for mercy. They broadcast these humiliating last moments as a warning to anyone approaching the perimeter that other smarty-pants were not welcome. The Courier was the inheritor of the Big Empty, and there was room for only one will in the halls of the Think Tank Dome."
In my personal opinion, I really believe that the independent ending is the best one. Because you either hand the keys to Vegas over to an autocrat, a corrupt and disrupted government that says they want to help, or an army of merciless and bloodthirsty slavers who would stop at nothing to see the world crushed under their boots. To me it makes sense that the most helpful person in the Mojave, the one who’s done the most to make a change for the better, is the one who should truly run the city. But that’s just my opinion, plus Ulysses was right in some forms the NCR and Legion will tear themselves apart soon enough. He best thing to do is to make independent nations and towns, like what The Divide once was. I wish we could see New Vegas after our choices, see the Legion ruled wastes, the NCR controlled farms and towns, House dominating the Strip with his Securotrons, and the Courier running the show with the help of Yes Man. I cannot believe this game somehow made politics fun. Kudos to you Obsidian! This is how you make a Fallout game Bethesda!
Caesar´s path is the only way for this world to be reborn. Kill the profligate, enslave their families and reeducate their young to embrace Caesar´s path. It matters not if Caesar dies, it matters not if any of us die... HIS ideals shall live on and reshape us through war and destruction.
Well House isnt so bad as many think, he wants to rule vegas and expand further he has his good and bad sides just like anyone else. His bigest point is his knoweldge, there will be no stagnation under him. In the end its either you the courier or House being in charge. Its more of a personal desision, do u want to burden you self with it, are you up to the task and will you be able to avert stagnation before you run out of resourses? Or is it better to let the one who is most fit do the job instead? Besides if House gets to far away the courier can deal with him.
@@johnhenryeden7535 i dont think that would happen at all. House would become a computer program as I think he intended to be. Yes man was designed to be his body and possibly all the securitrons. Like soul killer Arasaka from cyberpunk 2077. He would essentially become immortal and a despot. Hard to kill someone or something like that. If you did, what would be the cost?
@@johnhenryeden7535 i think its more of a question of how much you trust the mojave. the independent ending is remarkably anarchic if you pay attention to it (anarchic in the actual ideological sense. not as a different way to say 'chaotic'), the courier doesn't seem to take on much of a leadership role at all, the people of the mojave are the ones carrying things forward. so in my opinion the question is this: Do you trust them?
It’s not retconned That was misinfo spread by a really paranoid fan Technically speaking there are rumors the second season is going to be focused on new vegas
This ending showed me the consequences of all my actions while getting me to accept and live with them in seconds, we will never have another game like this again
You’ve heard stories of the Sierra Madre Casino. We all have. This story’s different than the others. It’s all in promise of beginnings and the ending.

0:24 The Capital Wasteland proved a cruel and inhospitable place but the lone wanderer refused to surrender to the vices that had claimed so many others the values passed on from father to child selflessness compassion honor guided this noble soul through countless trials and triumphs
And so the hero of the commonwealth from vault 111 saved innocent lives and changed history of the commonwealth forever 1.After minutemens wins they killed almost all raiders and supermutants in commonwealth and then they begin to build a big wall that will keep almost every danger away from commonwealth , most of people thought they lose once again but this time they changed commonwealth sands into green farms , giving a bright sign they got power , most peoples think they can get more than NCR and other factions but this is only begin of new hope . 2 . Preston Garvey after all what happened , wanted to see how new general change the commonwealth for better but instead , the general left the minutemens , and the last order he gqve was to place Preston general rank and change commonwealth for better then he vanished like a wind , Preston didnt wait , he take order and he begin to do what general wanted to achieve all the time . Its gonna take time but we all know he was the real general all the time and Best friend of general from vault 111 , no matter how much he marked settlements on map . 3 . Corsworth , the most loyal mr. handy didnt go with hero , instead he waste his last energy and fuel to create shiny and beautiful sanctuary like it was 210 years ago . after he ended up deactivated becuz of his old body and no more fuel and energy , the hero promised he will return his live in new and better robotic body , hero managed to take his nemory drive and then he moved forward with hope of finding good working mr . Handy just to bring him alive again . 4 . After all incidents that happend in Vault 81 , people finally understand they can trust outsiders , and by this they begin to send some merchants for wasteland after short time they got what they always wanted more tools , Peace , good peoples and the rest . And other side of vault 81 they know from stories of hero , got searched and then shielded for good , for safety of vault 81 . And they never forget what hero from vault 111 did for them . 5 . Curie after checking every corner with hero and then alone again , Find this what he always wanted to find , people that dont want to kill synths , after some days , the relationships got even better and he understand now the only thing he only need now instead of science is home and friends . 6 . General atomics gallery after hero from vault 111 reset system got changed into beautiful trading center and safezone for peoples that lost their houses becuz of bandits , after some time most robots got out of the energy or fuel and then peoples who lived there take their places to keep this place on 2 feets . 7 . After Mayor got revealed as a synth and died , the city thought this is the end of diamond city , but after short time Piper and Preston begin to setting this place as a minutemen city , after some hard work diamond city keeps his old classic name and got bigger than ever and the name got just popular like a new vegas . 8 . Piper after bringing back diamond city on 2 feets , got big reputacion in diamond city and most of people called her a hero , as a apologise for not believing her . But he always missing hero from vault 111 becuz hes always keeps remembering good nemories and time spended with him but he already know he cant go with him , he got diamond city , her home , and her young sister that needs older sister all the time , she knew that staying is going to be a better option than moving on new and unknown wastelands . 9 . Nick Valentine continue to eliminate crime and keep Peace on new commonwealth , after gaining big respect , most settlements build statue of him next to hero as a good remind of who is a true hero , he always reminded his hero and friend and of course his Brother from far harbor but not for long becuz he already know he need to keep justice on new commonwealth and he know that every second and every person count on him , becuz he was most goodest and bravest synth on commonwealth , that always bring justice in the new commonwealth .
Sorry but I didnt end it becuz f4 got big story and I wanted to give almost whole commonwealth story but its too long and requires too much thinking I be glad if u give me likes and end the rest of this , theres a chance i give some story but I dont think i got time for whole story , again sorry and hope u finish the rest for me :) .
My first fallout game was fallout 4, but new vegas will always be my favorite. It’s so nostalgic to me even though I only played it for the first time 4 years ago

No matter what choices you make, you will always change or lose something. Some will have their solace or good ending, but others will either lose everything, give up, or make new journeys and goals. The least you can do is thank them for what they’ve done for you, thank yourself for moving events and people, or feel regret. In any case, what matters is you’ve changed someone or something.
And so the courier who shot a .308 hunting rifle at a war memorial and called the grieving brother, "a little bitch". Cheated Morality once again, leaving the brother forever changed.
"And so the courier who had cheated death in the Mojave escaped it with the same alacrity they entered. Empires began and ended. Laymen fought and schemed. Factions withered and flourished. With the couriers aid change was ushered in, but the nature of the world remained the same because war... war never changes."
You've heard the story of the Sierra Madre Casino. We all have. The Legends, the Curses. Some foolishness about it lying in the middle of the city of the dead, buried beneath a blood-red cloud..
"And so the Vault Dweller changed the fate of the Wasteland forever, and his name was now cemented in history. But for the Vault Dweller, it was a hollow victory." "And so The Chosen One, during his great trial, showed his strength, and put down the menace that was The Enclave. Not only was Arroyo in his great debt, but the Wastes as a whole." "And so the Lone Wander caused the Enclave to fall, and the Capital Wasteland to rise. But he was only able to see the fruits of his labour for a moment, as he layed on the floor of the Jefferson Memorial. At least his father would finally be at peace." "And so the Sole Surviver completed his long odyssey. The blast was felt for a moment, the radiation for days, but the echos of the blast were felt forever." "But war...war never changes"
Simply Beautiful, how did someone living in our modern world perfectly capture the struggles anguish and victory of the post war. This song is the embodiment of war never changes, it is the very sound of the phrase the world doesn't stop turning. no matter how you play New Vegas you will always be greeted by this tune at the end
Honestly the one thing I love most about fnv is how the DLC's all build up to Lonesome Road. Joshua mentioning you're not the one he was expecting, the OWB and DM endings all having mentions of "the couriers actions at the divide" and such, i swear every time I start a new FNV playthrough, I always do the DLC's in order (Honest Hearts, Dead Money, Old World Blues) and save Lonesome Road to complete right before I do the 2nd battle of Hoover Dam
And So the Player Who had picked this game from their local Gamestop/Steamstore For their Gaming Console/PC finished the game, and their gaming cognitive mind was forever changed.
I fucking weeped. It's the music and context. You did great things. But you couldn't save everyone. In the end, the world is still a wasteland and everything meant nothing. Yet you did your absolute best and became the best of humanity despite everything that happened to you and everyone who tried to kill you. You are a hero and this is your funeral song.
And so, the Amazon delivery boy who rizzed up his grind in the field of unalived gooners of Goodsprings, rizzed up his grind once again and the Mojave battle royal map was forever maxxed on god.
And so the courier who committed tax fraud, cheated the IRS once again and their finances were forever changed.
...and so the Courier tax fraud comes to an end ... for now. In the new economy of the Mojave Wasteland, foreclosures continued, money was spilled, and many filed and evaded - just as they had in the Old World. Because taxes ... taxes never changes.
The NCR was baffled at how much tax fraud courier 6 had committed. The amount of taxes the NCR was missing due to the courier's mass fraud made them file for bankruptcy 2 years later after general Oliver stepped down for going over budget on his vacation days. The NCR rangers that were hired to find the courier to bring him down also played a role in the NCR's bankruptcy. The NCR and New IRS was never heard from again.
The kings learned from the courier's ways, learning that taxes were nothing but trouble, that taxes, were nothing but a parasitic biproduct of bureaucracy. The kings stood up the new IRS that the NCR put in. They even attempted to get a man named "the joker" to help them, but not even this joker would take on the New IRS. The protest led the brutal death of the kings via asphyxiation of tax dollars.
The great khans managed to escape the New IRS but were out of money by the time the crossed the Nevada border. Due to New IRS stealing the money that great khans rightfully earned, they all starved to death, since they couldn't buy any food. The great khans were forgotten shortly after.
Caesars legion fought hard against the New IRS, but to no avail. Caesar succumbed to his brain tumor since he couldn't afford medical bills, and none of his associates had any spare change. The legate attempted to commit tax fraud, but was executed shortly after his attempt. Vulpes Inculta attempted to run away from the New IRS, but the IRS caught up with him and crucified him on their brand new cross made of solid gold.
The boomers successfully committed tax fraud thanks to the couriers methods they were taught. The courier even spared some his illegal tax fraud money to invest in a b-29 bomber at the bottom of lake mead and a money printer. The boomers used the technology to drop counterfeit NCR currency across the land in an attempt to overinflate the NCR's cash driving the New IRS into madness. To add the final nail in the coffin of the New IRS, they used their money printer to invent currency: BoomerCoin. The currency gained widespread popularity among the savages they hated so much. However, due to the savages investing in BoomerCoin so much, the boomers dropped their bigotry in order to smite the New IRS.
The brotherhood of steel soon got word of BoomerCoin. They attempted to make their own currency aswell, they named it: "SteelCoin". Unlike boomercoin however, they were unsuccessful in launching their new currency. The brotherhood of steel thought BoomerCoin would go nowhere, so they stuck to their NCR currency and gained mass depression from having no money. They eventually committed mass suicide by blowing up their own bunker since they couldnt handle the mass taxing of the new IRS.

There is an expression in the Wasteland: "Old World Blues."
It refers to those so obsessed with the past they can’t see the present, much less the future, for what it is.
In the times following the second Battle for Hoover Dam, Old World Blues took on a new meaning...

No there isn't. Literally no one has ever said that
And so the courier who cheated death in the cemetary outside goodsprings cheated death once again and the mojave wastland was forever changed
The new California republic celebrated its 2nd victory at hoover dam established definitive control over the Mojave wasteland soon after they negotiated to annex the strip freeside and many surrounding communities the Mojave wasteland at long last had fallen under the NCRs banner
The Courier, fair and even-handed in his dealings throughout the Wasteland, was honored by the NCR for his support of the military at Hoover Dam. He was presented with the Golden Branch, the highest civilian decoration given by the Republic...

I like to imagine the courier sitting in a movie theatre with his legs up on the front seats, watching the slide show and sipping when I see that
For me, it was one of the Enclave Remenates on Power Armor, slowly walking across the screen every 15 seconds.
"Dean Domino, entertainer, singer... thief... explored the Sierra Madre not long after he was rescued by the Courier. Once he left the theater, the Sierra Madre recognized him as a guest, and many doors opened to him. He had to admit, it had been built to last. During his search, he came across the final records of Vera and Sinclair, and realized what happened the night the bombs fell. He felt strangely sad for a moment, and he had no idea why. Shrugging it off, his mind turned instead to where the Courier had come from. Vegas still survived, out there in the Mojave. Its sights, sounds... and casinos, ripe for the taking. So giving the Sierra Madre one last nod and a wink, he set off beyond the Cloud to begin again"
the first time I played he just tried to kill me repeatedly ;-;
i got the other ending where dog and dean were killed by me. i oddly regret it, because i've done alot with those 2 characters.
Killed the bastard for betraying me
don't do skill checks or barter checks to dean and dog? i say be nice :)
Nah
"Dean Domino, entertainer, singer... thief... had his last show on the Sierra Madre stage. The heist he spent over two hundred years planning fell apart, just as the first, by underestimating his partner's strength. Not long after the Courier left the Villa, the lights in the theater shut off, one by one. Only Dean's Hologram remained on stage, singing silently to an empty room. Still... as consumed as he had been with its riches and ruin, the Sierra Madre had held him captive long ago."
"We didn't realize we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun"
This comment brought out so much emotion in me. Fallout new vegas will always have a place in my heart till the end of time. So many great memories so many emotion playing through the main story and DLC but this song really makes you feel the weight of your actions through out, may they be good or bad, even though there is no perfect ending because the wasteland is a harsh place. I thank you for that comment. 🥰
Man your comment hits hard. Even though I played this game just 2 years ago. Definitely up there in my top 5.

It makes you realize that there is no "good ending" so to speak , no matter the ending you chose , some will live but some will die too
Best Fallout game ever made.
I think this theme tells you there is no *perfect* ending. Someone HAS to lose, and whether or not you think well of the Legion, Mr House or the NCR and many others the world is a connected place.
For every person who wins, someone has to lose. And this captures that feeling perfectly, the triumph of victory...and the underlining sadness of defeat.
Truer words had never been written. For a while I couldn't finish New Vegas because I was obsessed with getting the "perfect ending." I tried by all means possible, but as Dead Money teaches you, sometimes you have to let it go ...

ahem, fallout 1 and 2
Masterpiece of a track, it almost captures depressing triumph. You won, but at what cost?
The cost isn't what matters.. That's what makes it a depressing triumph.. Maybe you sacrificed everything for nothing.. Or maybe you sacrificed nothing for everything..
A devil-may-care warrior, trodding the path with complete impunity, ending up saving the world simply because he was in the wrong place at the right time..
Or a true branded hero, doing exactly as fate would so please, saving the world not because he wanted to, but because he had to.
Doesn't matter how you walk that path.. And it doesn't matter who you are at the end.. The world's still a post-apocalyptic wasteland filled with danger and dread no matter what difference you make..
Because war.. .. War never changes..

I imagine a scene like this:
The vault dweller looking over the village of Aroyyo, happy that those of Vault 13 were able to survive.
The chosen one, looking at the lights of New Aroyyo, in the distance the lights of the new NCR, New Reno, and San Francisco in the distance.
The brotherhood of steel working together with the mutants of the wastes, building a new world from the ashes of Chicago.
The Lone Wanderer watching caravan after caravan shipping water to those who desperately need it. The wanderer settles down in Moriarty's bar, not letting vanity cost lives.
The Sole Survivor looking over Diamond City, happy that the world can be at peace with the spectre of the Institute gone.
The Courier looks over the Mojave, the lights of New Vegas in the distance. To the eastern horizon lies winds bearing the mark of the Divide, a scar from the Courier's forgotten past, with Ulysses still holding vigil. To the north lies Big Mountain, it's lights aglow with the hum of new discoveries. A cloud on the Eastern horizon acts as a final tombstone to the Sierra Madre. Out of sight, Veronica treks to that forgotten place, to reunite with her lost lover, Christine.
And, just barely in sight, are the fires of Zion, where Joshua Graham remembers what the Courier said, and smiles.
Everyone wants to save the world, but each has a different way of doing it. This difference causes war. War. War never changes. We fight for the same reason. We fight for ourselves. War never changes. But men change. Through the roads they walk. Chosen or not, Dweller or Wanderer, we each are Survivors, and Couriers. We deliver our message. What the message is depends on us. Greed for Dead Money, Old World Blues, or a piece of Broken Steel, they all depend on us. We walk that Lonesome Road, but it's up to us to keep Honest Hearts. Aside from that, once we're done, all we can do is stand back. Stand back and watch the Fallout.

This track is both haunting, phenomenal, and makes any ending, any evil person you kill, any landmark or town you help or destroy, in a word, Bittersweet, with the mix between the screams and yells of those when the bombs dropped, and the sad yet..."end" like music, it truly shows that with new upbringings, (such as humanity's rebirth after the bombs fell), comes evil, corruption, death, violence, rape, the music almost tells us directly, that the same things will still happen, the only change you made was to either increase or decrease the scale on how much it happens. As the game states, "people lived and died, just as they did in the old world"
It never changes

P.s.- I know about Three Dog
You’ve heard stories of the Sierra Madre Casino. We all have. This story’s different than the others. It’s all in promise of beginnings and the ending.
The survivors of the Sierra Madre thought about gathering at the fountain and waiting for the courier. In the end the collars' silence made them uneasy, and the fear of turning on each other made them hesitate and leave the goodbyes unspoken. The radio message at the fountain was enough for them, and there was no need to add another farewell on top of all they had suffered.
Dog forgot himself as did the voice that raged within him. After their passing a new voice spoke within the mutant's shell. It was difficult for the voice to remember the two it once was. There was the beast, Dog, consumed by hunger and the other in reverse. The one consumed by control. Both were driven by need for the other. The Courier brought them together somehow. Joined the two into one. All that happened at the Sierra Madre was a faint memory to the new personality like a flickering light in the clouds of the mind. The new voice did not think of the courier again until the battle at the Divide reached his ears. The battle between the two couriers, beneath the torn skies and the old world flag, each bearing a message for the other. And the mutant prayed the courier that had saved him had been saved in return.
Dean Domino; entertainer, singer, thief... explored the Sierra Madre not long after he was rescued by the courier. Once he left the theater the Sierra Madre recognized him as a guest, and many doors opened to him. He had to admit it had been built to last. During his search he came across the final records of Vera and Sinclair and realized what happened the night the bombs fell. He felt strangely sad for a moment, and he had no idea why. Shrugging it off his mind turned instead to where the courier had come from. Vegas still survived out there in the Mojave. Its sights, sounds, and casinos ripe for the taking. So giving the Sierra Madre one last nod, and a wink, he set off beyond the cloud to begin again.
Christine, her mission complete, found new purpose as the Sierra Madre's warden. She watched over it silently by choice. Over time, the ghost people came to see her as one of the holograms. They would watch silently as she walked among them. At times Christine thought of the courier who had kept Elijah's hand from her throat. The courier reminded her of the other courier she had met in the Big Empty, and she wondered if the two had found each other at last. She did not think of them again until she heard the legends of the Divide. The Divide where the two messengers, the two couriers, fought beneath an ancient flag at the edge of the world.
Elijah: You've heard of the Sierra Madre Casino.
Christine: We all have. The legend. The curses.
Dean: Some foolishness about it lying in the middle of a city of dead.
Dog: A city of ghosts.
God: Beneath a blood-red cloud.
Dean: A bright shining monument reaching out luring treasure hunters to their doom. An illusion.
Christine: A promise that you can change your fortunes. Begin again.
Elijah: Finding it though, that's not the hard part. It's letting go.
Dean: It's letting go.
Christine: It's letting go.
Dog: It's letting go.
God: It's letting go.
I killed Dean. No regrets

As it had been in the years before the Great War, Big MT… the Big Empty… became home to one of the brightest minds of the 23rd century. The Courier watched over the Big Empty for years to come, caring for it, and keeping its discoveries safe until they were needed to help others. Which had always been Big MT’s purpose. Past the laboratories and Science, it had always been intended as a place to build the future of all mankind.

The thing that gets me with this is that it’s nothing like other games ending. Most other games I complete I feel accomplished like “it’s finally over, amazing experience”. However, despite the fact that New Vegas literally ends after this, credits and all, I never felt accomplished, successful, or even completed. It always felt like there was something more, and that your victory at Hoover Dam was not a time of celebration, mourning, or even sadness, but rather a time of reflection. One of few times I just stare at the screen shellshocked.
"Arcade was proud to have been one of the defenders who helped repel the Legion from Hoover Dam. He was prouder still to see the area freed from the shackles of the NCR and Mr. House. Though independence for New Vegas was not all he hoped it could be, Arcade used his Enclave knowledge and technology to keep order wherever he could."
Fallout 4 messed up by not doing something like the ending New Vegas had.
It'd be kinda dumb to give us a great ending with many ending slides, since the game allows you to continue playing after the ending, thus giving you a chance to make changes, thus making the ending slides meaningless
@@TimpanKanava the existence of a planned post-game for New Vegas determines this is inaccurate.
If you decide to blow up the institute and leave your synth son behind: And so the Sole Survivor of Vault 111 wandered the commonwealth aimlessly. Their search for their son coming to an end. Shaun died never seeing the fruition of the institutes plan to redefine humanity; his synth clone left to die like the rest of the institue and yet the destruction of the boogeyman of the commonwealth changed nothing. Raiders would still destroy local settlements attempting to rebuild society one piece at a time and synths were still persecuted and misunderstood. The Minutemen were still shattered with no general to lead them, the castle was left for nature to take over once again becoming a den for Mirelurks.
Preston Garvey and the settlers from Quincy settled peacefully in the sole survivors old home of Sanctuary doing their best to fend off from raider attacks. Nick Valentine continued on with his private eye lifestyle acting as an ambassador for synthkind, Piper and her sister travelled west; hearing of a land more stable than the commonwealth rumors of a new california republic. Strong found the milk of human kindness he so desperately was looking for and tried his best to help with human-super mutant relationships proving himself a valuable asset to the sole survivor. Codsworth decided to follow his master where ever they went.
Perhaps the sole survivor brought Codsworth along as a reminder of the family he once had. The loyal dogmeat followed the sole survivor to the grave, living the rest of his life happily with his owner. Hancock returned to his way of life as mayor of Goodneighbour being of the people for the people. His brother McDonough was eventually killed for being a synth spy for the institute and was replaced by his receptionist Geneva. Diamond City the so called great green jewel of the commonwealth still resented the ghouls. Many ghouls decided to migrate to the slog with their own kind to harvest tarberries for the commonwealth.
Paladin Danse, excommunicated from the East chapter Brotherhood of Steel for being a synth headed toward the west, where he hears of a more accepting Brotherhood inevitably joining The Brotherhood of Steel against their campaign toward the NCR.
MacCready went on to continue being a gun-for-hire in the commonwealth offering his services to the highest bidder. X6-88 without purpose continued to reclaim synths for the destroyed institute. He would follow his base programming regardless of whether he had free will or not.
Deacon and the rest of the Railroad continued to help synths where ever possible but with the institute destroyed and no more synths being produced they would eventually disband and try to help the commonwealth become a better place to live in. Cait would eventually go her own way refusing to be sold into slavery again. In a world where the strong survive, she refused to help rebuild the commonwealth and travelled to a fabled land in which slavery was outlawed.
The Brotherhood left a couple outposts in the commonwealth recruiting local wastelanders and hoarding pre-war technology for the better of humanity. The Prydwen returned to the Capital wasteland keeping tabs open on the Commonwealth division. The Commonwealth was forever changed because war, war never changes.
just something I thought of on the top of my head
Been playing this game for over a decade, but this music makes me tear up every time.
The music and ambience of FNV doesn’t usually affect me that much, but for some reason this theme gets me all misty-eyed. One of, if not *the* best game ever made
Почему-то мне очень нравится эта музыка... Будто бы приключение окончились и все страдания, радости, позади... Весь путь окончен но мы видим ради чего...
Fallout nvs ending felt like an ending. It made me proud of what I did, like it mattered.
The "Thousand yard stare, introspection" theme of my life.
I also remember hearing this, long before finishing the game, in the human sacrifice room of Vault 11, and honestly it was so relaxing, I didn't even care that I got locked in a room and completely eviscerated by robots, the pre-recorded intercom voice was telling me that I was a really good person and my sacrifice would help the vault in dealing with their overpopulation and lack of resources.
And despite the fact everyone else in the vault was completely dead by this point and there was no population to control, nor resources to save; I still felt really proud to have some random long-dead overseer who never met me calling me the hero of the vault, there was so much sincerity in his voice, and there was a motivational slideshow, they laid ourt a nice chair with whiskey and a cigar box for me, and the whole time this music was playing, for the first five times I didn't even try to fight back when they deployed the big robot death squad.
I mean if there was a way to continue playing the game after the battle of Hoover Dam, if I finished doing everything that I had to do in the Mojave wasteland, finished all the DLC and sidequests, I'd probably just head off to Vault 11 and get sacrificed again to finish it, because as meaningless and unjustified as that sacrifice was; it's the best way to die in the game, with this music playing, I won't accept the courier dying in any other way.
For some reason this music doesn't seem to play in Vault 11 for other copies of the game, I don't know how I ended up with it, I'm glad that I did though, as much as the PS3 version of the game has so many game breaking bugs and glitches and the lagging is intolerable; this music playing in Vault 11 is one of the things it did right.
Something deeply somber about this music. It’s not heroic like you would expect, because there is no true “good” ending. The world is a shadow of what it used to be, with struggle and suffering everywhere. But there is a glimmer of hope too. No matter what, even in the worst situations, mankind marches on.

Hearing this always reminds me of arcade's sad endings
Arcade becomes Caesar psychiatrist then dies by suicide wich saddened Caesar
All of Veronica's endings are sad to. She remains an outcast no matter what.
I want it play in my funeral
Same!!!
I love how its triumphic, completing, hopeful and at the same time its also haunting, mysterious and uncertain - and therefore fitting every ending and the general theme of the series.
Its so perfectly done they didtn bothered to give it a name that theres at least 1 flaw.
It’s fitting for the Courier being the next canonized saint, and yet it’s fitting for the courier being the worst thing to happen since the bombs fell.
Fun Fact: This remains the first video I've seen with a 1000:1 like-to-dislike ratio.
Not anymore......
F
Fun Fact……..Not a fun fact anymore
Well. I came across this game not so long ago but… this track. It’s like a kind of nostalgia for the things which never happened to you. It’s like comprehension of the fact that the world develops on its on and still will continue existing even if you close your eyes. It’s like walking through the early morning downtown when there’s none outside.
I think I should finally play fnv.
Music volume in the playthrough: 0
Music volume in the ending: 100
This song is honestly my favourite ending song for the fallout games, it feels so emotional and melancholic, almost as if beating the legate, taking the dam and the strip all had unforseen consequences, a pyrrhic victory, you won, but at what cost?
Yeah idk why it sounds so good like you won but at what cost
It doesn't convey that to me. To me it sounds like just the end of a long journey, its melancholic, bittersweet. You've been here, made a mark on the world and that's it. Life just goes on.
"You've heard of the Sierra Madre Casino. We all have. The legends, the curses. Foolishness about it lying in the middle of a city of the dead, buried beneath a blood red cloud. A bright shining monument luring treasure hunters to their doom. The world's most famous stars and entertainers were invited to its grand opening.
An invitation was a sign of exclusiveness.
The opening was supposed to symbolize a road to a brighter future, not just for the world... but for all who came to its doors.
A chance for anyone to begin again.
Except...the Madre never opened...
The War froze it in time, like a big flashbulb going off
The Grand Opening, one big ending of humanity.
Its still out there, in the wastes, preserved, just waiting for someone to crack it open.
But getting to it...that's not the hard part...
*_Its letting go..._*
"The Think Tank basement, filled with the lobotomized robotical frames of the doctors, now served as a graveyard. The monitors had recorded the battle in its entirety, including the Think Tank's final shrill terrified screams, whimpers, and pleas for mercy. They broadcast these humiliating last moments as a warning to anyone approaching the perimeter that other smarty-pants were not welcome. The Courier was the inheritor of the Big Empty, and there was room for only one will in the halls of the Think Tank Dome."
*"War, war never changes. Men do, through the roads they walk, and this road has reached its end."* -Ulysses
Gave me chills and nostalgic
In my personal opinion, I really believe that the independent ending is the best one. Because you either hand the keys to Vegas over to an autocrat, a corrupt and disrupted government that says they want to help, or an army of merciless and bloodthirsty slavers who would stop at nothing to see the world crushed under their boots. To me it makes sense that the most helpful person in the Mojave, the one who’s done the most to make a change for the better, is the one who should truly run the city. But that’s just my opinion, plus Ulysses was right in some forms the NCR and Legion will tear themselves apart soon enough. He best thing to do is to make independent nations and towns, like what The Divide once was. I wish we could see New Vegas after our choices, see the Legion ruled wastes, the NCR controlled farms and towns, House dominating the Strip with his Securotrons, and the Courier running the show with the help of Yes Man.
I cannot believe this game somehow made politics fun. Kudos to you Obsidian! This is how you make a Fallout game Bethesda!
Caesar´s path is the only way for this world to be reborn. Kill the profligate, enslave their families and reeducate their young to embrace Caesar´s path.
It matters not if Caesar dies, it matters not if any of us die... HIS ideals shall live on and reshape us through war and destruction.
Well House isnt so bad as many think, he wants to rule vegas and expand further he has his good and bad sides just like anyone else. His bigest point is his knoweldge, there will be no stagnation under him. In the end its either you the courier or House being in charge. Its more of a personal desision, do u want to burden you self with it, are you up to the task and will you be able to avert stagnation before you run out of resourses? Or is it better to let the one who is most fit do the job instead? Besides if House gets to far away the courier can deal with him.
@@johnhenryeden7535 i dont think that would happen at all. House would become a computer program as I think he intended to be. Yes man was designed to be his body and possibly all the securitrons. Like soul killer Arasaka from cyberpunk 2077. He would essentially become immortal and a despot. Hard to kill someone or something like that. If you did, what would be the cost?
idea: make obsidian make fallout great again.
@@johnhenryeden7535 i think its more of a question of how much you trust the mojave. the independent ending is remarkably anarchic if you pay attention to it (anarchic in the actual ideological sense. not as a different way to say 'chaotic'), the courier doesn't seem to take on much of a leadership role at all, the people of the mojave are the ones carrying things forward. so in my opinion the question is this: Do you trust them?
And so dies one of the best video game franchises
With thunder and applause
We knew bethesda hated new vegas but we didn't think they would retcon it
It’s not retconned
That was misinfo spread by a really paranoid fan
Technically speaking there are rumors the second season is going to be focused on new vegas
@@MarauderYTLet him think the mean old Bethesda ruined his games. There's no point in correcting him. It'll be like talking to a brick wall.
@@marcuscain1377mentally impaired bethesda bot
@@TheRealSkulldozer no he is right
first, bethesda has stated before that they don't hate new vegas
second, it's still canon?????? what are you talking about?????
This ending showed me the consequences of all my actions while getting me to accept and live with them in seconds, we will never have another game like this again
hearing this after collecting all the 37 gold bars in the sierra madre hit hard, because i had a bad time with it. glad it paid off at the end
*when you notice you are getting older and time starts getting faster for you...things you remember now...a distant memory...*
You’ve heard stories of the Sierra Madre Casino. We all have. This story’s different than the others. It’s all in promise of beginnings and the ending.
"Finding it isn't the hard part. It's letting go"
Damn man why’s it so depressing😂
because there is no single best ending for everybody, blood will alwyas be spilled, because war, war never changes
It's kinda uplifting too though
i dont care how many times i play dead money, the quote "finding it is not the hard part, its letting go..." will never stop giving me goosebumps
Today marks the loss of my son who I never got to meet. Today I lit a candle and wised him all my love and that I will always be with him until I’m reunited when I pass. Thanks for the upload bro, I’ve subscribed as a thanks. ❤️
yo no hate but this is a video game soundtrack 💀
@@queueuof I’m aware of that
been 11 fuckin years and this song still sends shivers down my spine; what an amazing game
You know it's been a day when this comes on.
Ngl, this song makes me tear up a bit just because of how it really does feel like the end of a great story
It brings such sadness and calmness...
I remember i somehow got this to play at the end battle of lonesome road, everthing was exploding and shit while me and ulyeses fought to get out while i barely survived, good memories
0:24 The Capital Wasteland proved a cruel and inhospitable place but the lone wanderer refused to surrender to the vices that had claimed so many others the values passed on from father to child selflessness compassion honor guided this noble soul through countless trials and triumphs
Y el Mensajero que había burlado a la muerte en el cementerio de Goodsprings volvió a burlarla de nuevo, y el desierto de Mojave cambió para siempre.
And so the hero of the commonwealth from vault 111 saved innocent lives and changed history of the commonwealth forever
1.After minutemens wins they killed almost all raiders and supermutants in commonwealth and then they begin to build a big wall that will keep almost every danger away from commonwealth , most of people thought they lose once again but this time they changed commonwealth sands into green farms , giving a bright sign they got power , most peoples think they can get more than NCR and other factions but this is only begin of new hope .
2 . Preston Garvey after all what happened , wanted to see how new general change the commonwealth for better but instead , the general left the minutemens , and the last order he gqve was to place Preston general rank and change commonwealth for better then he vanished like a wind , Preston didnt wait , he take order and he begin to do what general wanted to achieve all the time . Its gonna take time but we all know he was the real general all the time and Best friend of general from vault 111 , no matter how much he marked settlements on map .
3 . Corsworth , the most loyal mr. handy didnt go with hero , instead he waste his last energy and fuel to create shiny and beautiful sanctuary like it was 210 years ago . after he ended up deactivated becuz of his old body and no more fuel and energy , the hero promised he will return his live in new and better robotic body , hero managed to take his nemory drive and then he moved forward with hope of finding good working mr . Handy just to bring him alive again .
4 . After all incidents that happend in Vault 81 , people finally understand they can trust outsiders , and by this they begin to send some merchants for wasteland after short time they got what they always wanted more tools , Peace , good peoples and the rest . And other side of vault 81 they know from stories of hero , got searched and then shielded for good , for safety of vault 81 . And they never forget what hero from vault 111 did for them .
5 . Curie after checking every corner with hero and then alone again , Find this what he always wanted to find , people that dont want to kill synths , after some days , the relationships got even better and he understand now the only thing he only need now instead of science is home and friends .
6 . General atomics gallery after hero from vault 111 reset system got changed into beautiful trading center and safezone for peoples that lost their houses becuz of bandits , after some time most robots got out of the energy or fuel and then peoples who lived there take their places to keep this place on 2 feets .
7 . After Mayor got revealed as a synth and died , the city thought this is the end of diamond city , but after short time Piper and Preston begin to setting this place as a minutemen city , after some hard work diamond city keeps his old classic name and got bigger than ever and the name got just popular like a new vegas .
8 . Piper after bringing back diamond city on 2 feets , got big reputacion in diamond city and most of people called her a hero , as a apologise for not believing her . But he always missing hero from vault 111 becuz hes always keeps remembering good nemories and time spended with him but he already know he cant go with him , he got diamond city , her home , and her young sister that needs older sister all the time , she knew that staying is going to be a better option than moving on new and unknown wastelands .
9 . Nick Valentine continue to eliminate crime and keep Peace on new commonwealth , after gaining big respect , most settlements build statue of him next to hero as a good remind of who is a true hero , he always reminded his hero and friend and of course his Brother from far harbor but not for long becuz he already know he need to keep justice on new commonwealth and he know that every second and every person count on him , becuz he was most goodest and bravest synth on commonwealth , that always bring justice in the new commonwealth .
Sorry but I didnt end it becuz f4 got big story and I wanted to give almost whole commonwealth story but its too long and requires too much thinking I be glad if u give me likes and end the rest of this , theres a chance i give some story but I dont think i got time for whole story , again sorry and hope u finish the rest for me :) .
Literally one of the best ending themes in any game
My first fallout game was fallout 4, but new vegas will always be my favorite. It’s so nostalgic to me even though I only played it for the first time 4 years ago
“They say war, war never changes. Men do, through the roads they walk.”
"His failures hunted him for the rest of his days" - Daniel Honest hearts
Finishing fallout 3 and new vegas and hearing this masterpiece
The storyteller told many a story of legends come and gone but in the end little did he know he was writing his own story among those legends past and now his has come to an end
Man this just gives me an emotion i havent felt in years ...... just pure bliss
No matter what choices you make, you will always change or lose something. Some will have their solace or good ending, but others will either lose everything, give up, or make new journeys and goals. The least you can do is thank them for what they’ve done for you, thank yourself for moving events and people, or feel regret. In any case, what matters is you’ve changed someone or something.
And all the choices you made have been erased in a snap by jealous writers now.
@@themetroidprime i’m not that bitter about it
who else got kind of emotional when this played for the final time in your first playthrough
And so the courier who shot a .308 hunting rifle at a war memorial and called the grieving brother, "a little bitch". Cheated Morality once again, leaving the brother forever changed.
"And so the courier who had cheated death in the Mojave escaped it with the same alacrity they entered. Empires began and ended. Laymen fought and schemed. Factions withered and flourished. With the couriers aid change was ushered in, but the nature of the world remained the same because war... war never changes."
You've heard the story of the Sierra Madre Casino.
We all have.
The Legends, the Curses.
Some foolishness about it lying in the middle of the city of the dead, buried beneath a blood-red cloud..
This is the most memorable game ending, more open world games should end like this
My first time beating the game i got goosebumps and was leaning on the very edge of my seat and hearing this theme has brought me back to that moment.
This song is giving me a very touching and emotional moment thinking about the past and what will happen in the future
But finding it, that's not the hard part
It's walking out after taking all the gold
The hard part is getting past Elijah's insane perception level
"And so the Vault Dweller changed the fate of the Wasteland forever, and his name was now cemented in history. But for the Vault Dweller, it was a hollow victory."
"And so The Chosen One, during his great trial, showed his strength, and put down the menace that was The Enclave. Not only was Arroyo in his great debt, but the Wastes as a whole."
"And so the Lone Wander caused the Enclave to fall, and the Capital Wasteland to rise. But he was only able to see the fruits of his labour for a moment, as he layed on the floor of the Jefferson Memorial. At least his father would finally be at peace."
"And so the Sole Surviver completed his long odyssey. The blast was felt for a moment, the radiation for days, but the echos of the blast were felt forever."
"But war...war never changes"
Simply Beautiful, how did someone living in our modern world perfectly capture the struggles anguish and victory of the post war. This song is the embodiment of war never changes, it is the very sound of the phrase the world doesn't stop turning. no matter how you play New Vegas you will always be greeted by this tune at the end
Honestly the one thing I love most about fnv is how the DLC's all build up to Lonesome Road. Joshua mentioning you're not the one he was expecting, the OWB and DM endings all having mentions of "the couriers actions at the divide" and such, i swear every time I start a new FNV playthrough, I always do the DLC's in order (Honest Hearts, Dead Money, Old World Blues) and save Lonesome Road to complete right before I do the 2nd battle of Hoover Dam
There truly isn't good or bad there is only life and death
And So the Player Who had picked this game from their local Gamestop/Steamstore For their Gaming Console/PC finished the game, and their gaming cognitive mind was forever changed.
I nearly cried during the ending sequence
I fucking weeped. It's the music and context. You did great things. But you couldn't save everyone. In the end, the world is still a wasteland and everything meant nothing. Yet you did your absolute best and became the best of humanity despite everything that happened to you and everyone who tried to kill you. You are a hero and this is your funeral song.
And so, the Amazon delivery boy who rizzed up his grind in the field of unalived gooners of Goodsprings, rizzed up his grind once again and the Mojave battle royal map was forever maxxed on god.
