    DUST is, and remains, one of my favorite mods to exist. I loved it so much, I became a writer for the F4 equivalent, FROST, and have also lended a hand for the FROST+ mod that's currently being worked on. It's great to see the Mojave in such an opposite state from what it once was. Fighting your way through friendly towns and locations just for a scrap of food is exhilarating.

      Frost is a great mod though i wish it could've took place after the events of Fallout 4 rather than before it so the story could have a tragic outcome for the Sole Survivor and the consequences of their actions on the Commonwealth after nuking the Institute. Maybe a strain of the FEV could've gotten released in the process along with radiation storms from the Glowing Sea getting more and more lethal and intense and the Brotherhood would be quick to pin the blame and hunt down Nate for it similar to the NCR hunting down the Courier especially if the Minutemen ending was canon

    I have just realised there is a major flaw in the Dust lore. What happens to all the Securitrons? If the courier used wildcard then the NCR would not have tried to annex the strip so quickly.

    • @iagorocha4814
      @iagorocha4814 Год назад +5

      Its really funny to imagine the ncr trying to siege the strip with the courier, high with all the drugs know to man, backed by a securitron army.
      Emphasis on TRYING.

    • @FatrickAteman
      @FatrickAteman 10 месяцев назад +7

      The only answer is that this is set in the ending where the courier persues Yes Man but destroys the securitron army underneath the fort.
      Still i think it's a missed opportunity to not have the Securitron-NCR war to be one of the factors that leads the NCR to being so brutal and insane. The Casualties would be high even if the securitrons were a quarter of their potential number.

    • @FreezeFreeman

    It's finally here! I've been eagerly awaiting this series ever since you announced it in your DUST overview, and so far it hasn't disappointed! As soon as I get more free time, I want to play DUST myself, but until then, this lore series can scratch the itch. On the topic of the actual lore though, perhaps my biggest criticism is how cartoonishly evil the NCR is. They're by no means some paragon, do-no-evil faction--the fact that ambitious dickheads like Aaron Kimball and Thomas Hildern can achieve such high positions is proof of that--but it's a pretty enormous leap to go from Bitter Springs being the worst incident in their history, to the events of DUST. It makes for an interesting setting, but at the cost of reducing the NCR to Enclave-levels of twirling mustache evil. I think I would've preferred if they leaned into the idea that NCR tried to help when they could, but always prioritized themselves and their interests first; I feel like that would've been truer to their portrayal in New Vegas, and still allowed plenty of moral grayness and dark decisions for the mod to play with. That said, I'm still chomping at the bit for more lore, so I can't be too harsh.

    I love this video and I wanna bring a point up that u brought up towards the end of ur dust review. For me what makes this mod more unsettling is... It's not that far fetched to happen. The ncr is corrupt and there is no doubt that they would resort to these extreme measures. Even with them experimenting with the gas from the Madre, it would definitely be something they would take a interest in very much like vault 22 I think it was.

    • @SpacemanScott
      @SpacemanScott  Год назад +3

      Oooooh yeah, that's what I think is so compelling about DUST: It's that everything that's happened in the world makes sense/is foreshadowed by the base game (Tunnellers and the dust storm heading towards the Mojave, the spread of the cloud, etc.) Sure there's some stuff you'll have to make a few logical leaps to believe (as you'll see in later episodes) but most if not all of the lore makes logical sense

The amount of ways to prevent the events from Dust from occurring are so piss easy you'd have to try to make a playthrough to follow that canon. Dust goes out of its way to establish the NCR as nothing other than evil, which is a far cry from how they're actually depicted in New Vegas, to make the events in Dust work. It doesn't happen at all without its OC NCR scientists either, who don't exist in the actual canon. If you like that everything you did in the base game ends up being pointless because everyone dies then that's great, but that's not what the developers of New Vegas intended at all unless you went out of your way to make that happen

    It's nice to know the Storyteller spirit is alive and well.

    This feels like I've just started an official DUST dlc, and Ive sat back with my PS3 controller in my hand, listening to the dlc opening

    Great series Scott. This was something special. I watched all 10 episodes, but this one episode already illustrates my issues with Dust Lore.
    I love the mod and the atmosphere it brings to the game. Played it to death. Did all the escapes. All before your lore series.
    But I can't ignore the fact that most of the story only makes sense if the NCR suddenly becoming Gestapo in a heart beat. Human experimentation, chemical warfare and several other warcrimes against the rebels, shooting everything on sight... Its just so cartoonishly evil that it manages to surpass even the legion. Constitutional Laws, Moral codes, Moral science. All of these things wiped out of the minds of every ncr citizen/military that forcefully occupy the mojave
    I feel like the decent of evilness of the faction is too forced. Without it, the mojave would still be mostly fine, with some areas being populated and pushing back the tunnelers, even if you cant really do anything about the Divide winds.. The Strip could still be working and liveable.
    Elijah's plan for the cloud only really work if the NCR is just as terribly greedy and irresponsible and uncaring for human life as him.
    The mod lore tries to portray the NCR in the mojave under more pressure than ever, with the winds, the tunnelers and the legion remnants tribes(that somehow become an even greater threat than a united and cohesive legion) constantly attacking their positions and roads.
    I get that guerilla warfare is a thing, but none of these tribes seem to be working towards the same goal. There is no cause. No direction. They would kill each other as much as the NCR if necessary for survival. Even the lore you find in Nipton points to this.
    I still appreciate the mod and the story it built. Its my favorite mod for FNV, but once you play it so much, you begin to see the inconsistencies in the story.
