You forgot the guy who makes motorcycle noises and grenade sounds to fight raiders. Takes true genius to pull that off
Honestly a wastelander who can use their brain is really great especially considering most wastelanders are just farmers or mercs
It would’ve been cooler if aqua pura was widely available in fallout 4 from vendors, emphasising how important the events of fallout 3 were and the water is being widely exported.
It might be implying that the need for clean water in the capital water and is so dire that they can't ship it out to other regions yet, or maybe the writers didn't think of that but that would be cool
I mean, Deacon mentions it so it would make sense to see it but at
Least have it be somewhat rare because of the distance.
I suppose they wanted the canon ending to be ambiguous, since the player has the option to put Eden's FEV into the purifier.
*sniiiiif*
I smell a good little mod to be had...
@@codycarabotta5621 godbye to my water farm and my caps 😂😂😂
I would have added Fawkes to the list. He was imprisoned for god knows how long. Instead of letting his time go to waste he spent endless hours studying history and literature turning himself into one of the most well versed inhabitants of the post apocalyptic world. 😃
@@_TheLoneWanderer He could be an original inhabitant. But the experiments were after everyone had taken shelter from the war. And the mutants abducted and kept turning people into mutants. Plus they keep growing if he was pre war there is a small chance he’d be a Behemoth.
@@_TheLoneWandereroh thats actually a good point, this vault in particular is pre war so he probavly also is prewar
I wonder how long it would take for Project Purity to clean the world's oceans and whether it would have been better to build it inland on a river so it could feed radiation free water into the aquifer and cleanse rivers and lakes downstream, I think that would have all sorts of positive knock on effects for the plants, animals, and people along the route to the ocean.
That's actually a very good idea. I love the idea of a major quest in another game which seeks to expand Project Purity to somewhere inland so it could feed radiation free water to lakes and streams
@@Sozile Thank you.
You'll need aqua the goddess, but shes too lazy
The tree
@@criptoman1457 What tree and what about it?
Intelligence is a rare commodity in the wasteland. But knowing that so many people have such levels of intelligence is a promising thing for the future of the wasteland. Even though Elijah was a bit of an egotistical nutjob.
Humanity is recovering but it just means we'll be dealing with different kinds of problems in future Fallout titles
@@Sozileintelligent deathclaws society
@@kiokyyikune If only 😔
I always agreed with Dr Li. My idea would be to take over the institute, eliminate the brotherhood leadership and create a large version of diamond city with synths, courses and humans in power armor as guards and wasteland pest control. Rebuilding a safe radiation free society with institute technology would be easy from there.
I think using the coursers as guards is a very risky idea. I feel like if you liberalised the institute, the SRB would start a civil war, and since they control all the coursers....
@@mappingshaman5280 I didn’t notice any dissent after I took over the institute 😉
@@mappingshaman5280 yeah step one oughta be depowering the coursers back into baseline synths. But afterwards the question is what to do with the gen 3 synths. I think making more might be a mistake, but the ones that already exist are essentially living beings, so I think human decency is owed to them. They didn't ask to be built, but they're here now.
@@abdalln8554 Shut up Desdemoná!!
Its just a joke, i second your point
6:15 "Li-berty Prime"
You just earned yourself a sub
I’m glad you mentioned piper because I do believe that what she did was right, investigating the death of her father and saving the lives of her mother, sister and friends and neighbors. Also she a fun companion and my favorite to bring with throughout your adventure in the main story line
LMAO... Piper is just a self-righteous Karen, and Mayburn was INNOCENT. Her big proof was what? That raiders attacked her town after they kicked him out, proving he was in cahoots? NO!!! If he was in cahoots, they would have known the gig was up because he would have told them. Further, raiders attacking towns is what they do. That is no better proof than if she had predicted it would eventually rain in Seattle... The real truth is that Piper is a madwoman who turned a minor synth issue into a full-blown hysteria that had people killing each other in the streets over nothing.
Yea all that and she got a big butt.
You'd think ghouls would rise to the top, all that age and wisdom, that one from point lookout was very capable but I'd expect more leaders like Hancock & more scientists with the lifespan they have.
Iirc a lot of Ghouls don't stick around long enough to become the head of their field. In New Vegas for instance, the two ghoul ladies in jacobstown and the mormon fort talk about having loads of jobs over the years. Raul and the ghoul holed up in repconn are also the drifter type. It makes sense to me, with all that time and with how volatile the wasteland can be to ghouls, you'd try out different things and have to keep moving.
@abdalln8554 it is notable that quite a few of the desert rangers are ghouls.
I love the Piper addition; she's not a scientist, sure, but journalists are fundamentally important in any healthy society, and it's nice to see free press and quality research work being aimed for in the post-apocalypse!
You will never lose my interest when talking about Piper! I absolutely love everything about my wasteland wife. I am glad to see her included on her, I think she is very underestimated and underappreciated.
Excellent video as always. Although I believe Piper is somewhat a stretch, I do believe true intelligence is environmental. This allows us to include each Fallout protagonist, who has to adapt, manufacture, influence, romance, (insert adverb here) and/or destroy whatever he/her/they encounter. Love your work Norte
Why wasn't Brain from FO2 on the list. He's an intelligent Molerat that managed to broker peace between Vault City and the Ghoul town of Gecko.
or Festus, the Ghoul who repaired Gecko's nuclear power plant. or Martha from the Hub, de-facto leader of the largest post-war trading caravan, surely her street smarts top Piper's.
remember that one matpat video that says that "society hasn't been restored yet" because of mass radiation poisoning affecting sanity?
I mean...possibly? But it feels like humanity hasn't recovered cus even 200 years later, dealing with the impact of nuclear annihilation is an extremely difficult feat. Throw in competing factions, slavers, raders, mutated monsters, radiation and whatever else is out there and...yeah, I'm just glad humanity is even still around
Yeah, if you ignore the NCR, Caesar's Legion, the Brotherhood, the Chicago Enclave, Vault City, Arroyo, all of Mexico and Texas, New Vegas, and dozens of other states besides, he's got a point. His theory only works if the only games you've played are 4 and 76
@@filmandfirearms The Brotherhood is literally defined by their paranoia, reluctance to help those outside their group, and their willingness to murder branches that don't conform.
Caesar's Legion falls apart in any ending where Caesar isn't the leader.
The NCR is at capacity and can't expand any further, and is also showing signs of internal pressures creating a potential collapse.
And we don't actually know that much about what extent of Texas and Mexico has cohesive government.
Ad for Aroyo... we don't know much except that it still exists, and is apparently still separate from the NCR despite their overwhelming greed for expansion. Which the point could be made that New Aroyo being separate but also clearly disregarded by the NCR is a sign that the NCR isn't equipped for proper diplomacy yet.
All of those are societies that only exist because of either individual strength, or are struggling to maintain what cohesion they have.
As for Vault City, they're literally *not* being subject to radiation. GECK units take the surrounding radiation in and use it in order to fuel the reaction to purify and revive the area around the unit. And Vault City had extra units.
So including Vault city in that makes it questionable if _you_ played any of the earlier games.
Part of the instability is just for the sake of the games needing conflict and can thus be chalked up to game mechanics.
But saying that society isn't massively struggling to reform even in regions with steady supply chains is silly.
@@filmandfirearms I mean, even in 4, Diamond City is a thriving settlement and bastion of normalcy in a sea of chaos, so even that one has an example of a functional Post-War society.
@@video-luver769 as well there was a commonwealth government for some time before the institute pulled a roman senate
Hey man! I LOVE the editing on this latest video, the footage flows perfectly with your talking points, A+ Top marks dude😁👍
You should have included joe becker, he started a government in the commonwealth for some time and when the minutemen were thriving they could help keep the commonwealth safe
You could also have included aradesh, he founded the ncr
You could also also have included tandi as she made the ncr even better
I didn’t actually know Doctor Henry was in fallout 2 and had his own research there, it’s an interesting coincidence Doctor Henry met up with Judah Kregers squad as they both moved East
I do appreciate Piper's mention. She wasnt a simple conspiracy theorist. She exposed things that needed to be exposed and was also right about the mayor. She may be flawed as a journalist but she wants to print the truth and help the people to have a better standard of living, thats more than anyone else can say in the commonwealth
you and tk mantis are literally the best youtubers for fallout, BIG SALUTE in all the help you’ve given me over this last year.
Morning N-orte. Have a good day huh?
I cant believe you forgot Fantastic. He's got a theoretical degree in physics
There’s gotta be a 5 more in the works coz you can’t forget about Harold or the master
Both Harold and the Master were born Pre-Great War. Harold is cited as being born in 2072, and Richard Grey, the primary personality of the Master, was within Vault 8 both when the bombs dropped and was young enough he was functional when the Vault opened.
Harold was one of the original people that entered Vault 29. So he would be on a Pre-War list.
Was the little bit with Elijah and Six sharing a Sunset Sarsaparilla a reference to MOTM?
If so, very nice.
What does MOTM mean? I tried to look it up but there's a few answers
16:12 I didn't like fallout 4 storyline but let's appreciate the gestures performed by piper here😂❤
I understand why a lot of people disagree with Piper being on the list, but I genuinely appreciate the inclusion of a non-traditionally intelligent character.
I bet you do lol
@@jaylee9552?
@kiokyyikune if you need context to the joke, then you don't deserve to get it lol.
@@jaylee9552 😐
Piper is awesome and she's got that cake.
"Number 4: Piper"
Junkie Cait fans: "And I took that personally."
Part 2 please!
What? Moira Brown doesn't make the list?
Piper was actualy that part that caught most of my attention because its one not many talk about.
Piper is no f'n joke one of my favourites, and possibly one of the most street smart people we'll meet. I totally get why some find her annoying, but I think you defend her well.
you didnt grab Oh Baby!
Are these in order?
I like that this list is about people who changed the world with their intellect rather than just were built as having a hight Intelligence. Pinkerton probably had a greater Intelligence Stat than Lee but he didn't use it for anything.
Practically speaking intelligence is our ability to solve new problems. If you aren't helping you're not smart regardless of test scores
Tandhi…?
1:49
216 is the password for the preferred
You’re the first RUclipsr I’ve heard say sarsaparilla properly. Hats off
This isn’t the best. You’ve put Piper above characters like The Master.
Only 1 guy here exists in the Pre-3D games, and even then you focus on his reappearance in New Vegas.
Piper over the boy who invented Jet.
Well I think that Dima from far harbour fidel or loyal from the boomers and Ulysses are pretty SmartWatch too.
Maybe not genious like elijah but ulysses re-start a gigantic nuclear silo by himself, and loyal figured out just with scrapp pieces a magazine about the b 29 and a crashed b 29 on a lake how to fix it all by himself.
It should perhaps be noted that people whose favourite quotes come from the Book of Revelations...are often...not the greatest minds.
Some other people i would say deserve this list are Caesar, altough he is bad, he does have a lot of military genius. Also, tandi, her political genius had her form the NCR.
I do like the inclusion of Piper as representation of knowledge beyond technology. It makes me wonder about some other highlights of social intelligence in the series.
Although I suppose a lot of them coming to mind are using such intelligence generally for evil, so perhaps it's not quite the same as how you present it here. Porter Gage is instrumental in building a society, it's just full of raiders. Vulpes and the frumentarii are so good at going undercover they can wreck the monorail without intervention.
Then the others feel like they're either too questionable in origin (Deacon) or very ineffective, despite their knowledge (Rex Harrison comes to mind). Cool list and focus.
1) Catherine - FAILED to make a big water purifier
2) Madison Li - Made a big battery for a big robot
3) Elijah - Hijacked prewar tech and got his butt kicked
4) Piper - Fearmongered Diamond City residents into paranoia and murdering each other WITHOUT trying to
5) Dr Henry - Only one worth his salt, made robot dogs
No, you are COMPLETELY wrong... Here is a better list.
1) Myron - Invented jet and single-handedly produced the drug fueled raider menace that has kept humanity from advancing beyond the awesomeness of wasteland. There wouldn't even be a Fallout series without him.
2) Dr Frederick - Oversaw the Institutes creation of gen 3 synths
3) Brian Virgil - Actually CURED supermutantism and reversed FEV successfully (while curing baldness)
4) Father - Single-handedly masterminded the BoS into bringing him Liberty Prime and falling into ruin with minimal effort while performing a xanatos gambit that took down two other competing factions and granted him immortal control over the commonwealth from the shadows ruling through a proxy stooge
5) Curie - Made a serum that literally cures ANYTHING...
having 4 of the 5 entries be from Fallout 4 and 3 being from the same faction is a bit cheap.
I am… bafman
You lost me at Piper
Second (I think)
Your mom
Virgil from Fallout 4 also was a smartass. He knew too much, so Kellogg had to eliminate him
Fourth
Third
im sorry man but ya lost me at piper she's definitely one the dumbest characters in fallout if not top 5 😂😂😂😂
How is she one of the dumbest exactly?
I would not call her one of the dumbest. But when it comes to impact I don't know if she even is in the top 3 out of your companions really.
@@redholm never played the game but already know Nick, Deacon & even Dogmeat are alll more intelligent & more important to the plot than Piper is.
First
You mean pimp boi 30000
