    When Slag starts his little countdown, I in turn have myself a quick lunch of Yao Guai ribs, a Nuka Cherry, and take some Orange Mentats. Then, by the time he gets to 2, I'm already shooting. My philosophy in this situation is...Never mess with a pissed off, pre-war housewife, carrying a fully-auto Combat Rifle, loaded with explosive .45 rounds. Especially when matters of family are involved.

    When I did this quest, I decided to take the poetic route. I had the Pain Train skill maxed out and had X-01 Power Armor when I faced the boss. I sprinted up the stairs and sprinted into him, sending him straight into The Forge. He didn't die right away, even got a few swipes in at me, but I shot at him a couple times and made sure that The Forge's fire was what finally killed him. Poetic justice at it's finest. If they had gravestones, I would've put on it, "He died as he lived, by the hand of The Forge."

    As far as where Slag is from I would say he is probably from the Pitt. Possibly raiding to get slaves for the Pitt. After all Jake does mention prisoners. Depending on if the mutations that plague the Pitt have been cured or not at this point in time the Pitt would still need slaves. Marie from the Pitt would have only been around 10 or 11 years old by the time Fallout 4 happens so the amount of time that they could have actively been looking for the the cure wouldn't have been long. The Mutations from the Pitt might also explain Slag's insanity.

    Oh man, my first play through I screwed the Finchs in every way possible, and none of it was intentional. First, I killed Jake during the fight at the Ironworks while wildly throwing grenades, and then to make matters worse, during an invasion I blew Abigail's head off when I mistook her for a raider. Awful. And as if that wasn't bad enough, before I even noticed that I'd killed her, I looted her. (I like to loot the Invaders and equip the armor and weapons on my settlers.) OMG. Horrible! I didn't know what to do, so I just put her body on her bed.
    I came back later to check on the farm, and Abraham and Daniel were just standing there looking at her. I felt so rotten. Probably the worst I've ever felt about a gaming experience. Empathy can be a real bitch.
    I waited for night to fall, then dragged her body out of the cabin and threw her in the river while her family was sleeping.
    I avoided Finch's Farm for quite a while after that, but finally went back when they were invaded again. After we kicked the snot out of the Forged, Abraham and Daniel were so effusive in their thanks. They were saying how terrible their lives would have been if not for me. If they only knew!!!
    On the one hand, I was pleased that they didn't hold it against me, OR at least not KNOW that I killed half the family, but on the other hand, I still feel pretty badly about how the whole thing went down.
    So, um, yeah. I always go out of my way to make sure the Finch family gets a happy ending now. Except my latest character went straight from the vault to Nuka World for a raider play through. I gotta figure out a way to let the Finch familyhave their peace. Maybe I can just avoid them altogether?
    Thanks for reading!

    am i the only person who questions why there's no special music for fallout, seeing as there a 110-120 year gap between the music we hear and the bombs falling, did only Vinyl survive the bombs, an if so why are there still some perfectly fine pre-war holotapes around.. i want something different to listen to damn it

    • @AndrewConlan
      @AndrewConlan 7 лет назад +6

      but it's not tho, all the music is from the 30s-60s, at the point of divergence, so once the split the timeline, they just STOPPED making music... heck Elvis existed in their word and yet there is no Elvis music in any of the games

      @OTEP1234567891011 7 лет назад +28

      The reason for the seemingly high tech developments in a seemingly low tech world is due to the fact that the transistor was never invented. The transistor is the successor to Fallout's technology, vacuum tubes. The transistor allowed the microchip to be invented. Fallout's technology doesn't run on transistor technology, but instead use vacuum tubes. That's why they have nuclear powered robots but black and white large vacuum tube powered TVs.

    I actually have a theory about the Forged I would like to run past you all. Since Slag comes from outside the Commonwealth, set up shop in the old Iron works, and actually seems to know something about how to process metal, it makes me think he is a Raider from The Pitt. All the signs are there. I am guessing he moved from The Pitt to the capital Wasteland after the Vault Dweller finished with the Pitt. He heard about the Commonwealth and thought it would be a good place to start his own Raider Clan. It would even explain his Power armor, since the Brotherhood of Steel had left a few suit behind in the Pitt after the Scourge.

    Okay, I made a post on your recent video about this; however, I wanted to say thank you again. I cleared the Forge, saved Jake, didn't save the settler, and completely missed the Dampening Coil, bobblehead, and book.
    Also, I was using a Super Sledge when fighting Slag, and when I killed him in VATS I literally knocked him out of his Armor. He was laying on the ground and his armor was standing there marked as owned, but accessible. I have no Mods, and couldn't find anything about this in a brief search.
    Preston was my companion, and Slags armor showed as owned so I was planning to return anyway.
    I'll pick those missed items up when I do. Thank you for the videos, and the lore.

    • @lifecapricious
      @lifecapricious 5 лет назад

      FYI: I went back to get the armor. It still showed owned. I took the armor, went to red rocket where I store my armors for now, and even after leaving it still shows owned. So I knocked him out of his armor, he's dead, but every time I use his armor I'm stealing.

    I was burned to a crisp mostly even before reaching the entrance doors.
    And , finally, in the end fight against , ehm, you- know-who, I ran around like a rabbit in panic at the bottom of that room, desperately trying to hide somewhere. Only with the help of enormous amounts of Jet, Psycho and other good stuff I made it, barely. It was terribly hard.
    The second time I went in a level 50 character and was done early enough for some sun bathing at the Finch Farm afterwards.

    I didn't even find this place because of the quest, I just stumbled across it at level 14 while I was looking around doing one of the Minutemen settlement quests.
    I kept getting killed by the Forged and their Flamers, till one time I ran to the Pool that Wiseman ran and they followed me. Luckily one of the trade caravans was there too and the combined firepower of me, the Caravan boss and the 2 guards killed the Outer guards. I swiped the Cage armor and their weapons and made it in. Got killed a few times INSIDE too but me and Cogsworth slaughtered our way all through to Slagg and Jakes' initiation.
    Headache inducing...and I loved it when I won.

I shot the blowtorch and it fell onto a container below it so I could retrieve it that way because I am awful navigating the steel beams :). There is also an alien doll with welders goggles off to the right side of the first wooden ramp as you are approaching the area with the radio on the top level. Both were pretty fun :).

    One of the things I love most about your videos is that it shows how thoughtful you are with the characters.

You're a good settlement leader to be so invested in the lives of those in your 'care'.

    Daniel Finch is one of the named settlers that has a separate cap account, hence if you make him a trader by assigning it to a stall he will have his own inventory, including caps. The other two are Connie Abernathy and June Warwick at the eponymous farms. Most settlers that can be assigned to stalls do not have their own inventory, meaning when you drain the caps from one, it will also drain the caps from every other settler assigned to a similar stall type. Named recruitable settlers can also have the same issue: Vault-Tec Representative and Tina deLuca most preeminently.

    Not sure if you mentioned this in the video. If you CLEARED Libertalia and Corvega before going to Saugus Ironworks, Slag has journal entries in his Terminal talking about those location. In the Libertalia entry, Slag comments on wanting to meet the killer's face. In the Corvega entry, he comments that Jared may have been too high to enjoy the fight.

    You missed the bit on the roof, with the execution death stairs running up to the chimney stack. I found that bit most interesting on my playthrough of Saugus. 👍

      The other thing that was missed was the two pre-war skeletons under the first stairway, smoking.

    I couldn’t save Jake and I didn’t know this was a quest
