    Maybe he is not illiterate. Maybe he is a foreign specialist? We have had a Chinese technician at our oil plant. He knew "hello" and "bye" but I doubt he could speak or read any language besides Chinese :D

    • @les_larmes_d_un_hibou
      @les_larmes_d_un_hibou Год назад +28

      i think that's probably the best choice, it would make sense, perhaps he was called to the plant to solve a problem he was more specialized in, but he still didn't know how to read their language, perhaps just speak it…

    • @ForeverTemplar
      @ForeverTemplar Год назад +8

      Local chinese community probably took care of him; and they tend to look out for their own. That's pretty much the reality of working anywhere in the West. Occupational language requirements in Europe/North America died like a snowball in hell when globalization, so-called anti-discrimination laws, and economic migration became normalized.

    • @SiberianOldPal
      @SiberianOldPal Год назад +12

      @@ForeverTemplar It's ok. You need a specialist, that you don't have, fast - you "book" one from your foreign partner.
      In our law, there is a special position - "foreign specialist", highly trained professional. He can bypass language requirements

    @MrDrCthulhu Год назад +32

    I like how, even after all this time playing it, Cataclysm can still scare you. Whether it be zombies in the dark jumpscaring you, or seeing a huge tear through a reinforced concrete wall and wondering what the hell did that (and if it's still around!)

  • @TheGruspastej
    @TheGruspastej Год назад +105

    I imagine he has a severe case of dyslexia but has determined not to let that stop him and with grit, determination and learning aids he managed to get through school. That " never give up fighters mindset" is reflected in his martial arts as well.

  • @Otto_Von_Beansmarck
    @Otto_Von_Beansmarck Год назад +30

    As a fairly well off child in Poland, Dylan was a prodigy at science and was top of his class in fencing, his parents forced him to learn English he picked up speaking fairly quickly but he never got a good grasp of the spelling. After he got a well paying prestigious job as a power plant technician in America he was quite regretful of his lack of dedication to his English classes but most of the job was either speaking or numbers related so he expected to catch up on his studies while working there but that all changed when the cataclysm happened...

  • @YT-Lucas
    @YT-Lucas Год назад +49

    I would like to propose that he's illiterate - in the language used on all of the equipment here. Perhaps he's a visiting technician from a foreign country.

    • @orphankicker4897
      @orphankicker4897 Год назад +6

      Good point but he could have been dyslexic but the cataclysm made it worse?

    Dylan seems like one of those guys who can't read a menu without help, but you find out has somehow been making like 150k working graveyard shift since he was 14 lmaooo. Cool to see you trying this scenario!

    I could see a recent traumatic brain injury making him unable to read, and he's been fooling his employers and doctors into thinking he is still capable of reading so he can keep his job.

  • @orphankicker4897
    @orphankicker4897 Год назад +12

    Perhaps he's wasn't illiterate but dyslexic but because of the cataclysm he lost his ability to read?

  • @fey2712
    @fey2712 Год назад +5

    Dylan might have extreme dyslexia or maybe suffers debilitating migraines when reading/ maybe? He could have relied on text to speech programs or memorized lectures throughout his life to be able to pursue his passions in science. Given his mastery -- of all things -- fencing and judo, perhaps he came from a family of means that would have made finding a career in nuclear science with his learning disability easier. Whatever his origins may be, Dylan seems like a fascinating and challenging survivor! I'm excited to see where he goes next.

    By the feral mechanic actions we can clearly see that he wasn't Dylan best friend 😂 maybe he knew that that Dylan was illiterate and nobody believed him, consequentially he has gone mad because he was convinced that Dylan caused the cataclysm.

    One way to explain the illiterate trait is to say that Dylan is foreign - for example as part of an official (foreign) government fact-finding delegation (with translators, etc) that was visiting the plant.

  • @archmageguidla
    @archmageguidla Год назад +1

    @johnpienta4200 Год назад

    He was always disorganized. But as the cataclysm took hold something happened... Like a bang, or maybe a pop?
    He came to an unknown time later having a hard time hearing. And... He can't really tell what all these squiggles are all over things. Some kind of patterns? Some of these symbols seem repeated.
