So, REPCON stole trade secrets from Poseidon, improved on it, THEN Poseidon stole THOSE trade secrets back from REPCON? Nice
Close; Poseiden stole secrets from Repconn (and sabotaged them), RobCo bought Repconn, RobCo stole those same trade secrets from Poseiden, then gave them back to Repconn, which Julia then stole and gave back to Poseiden.
Oxhorn so everything is just a stupid cycle of business espionage, the pre-war world was really creepy, confusing, and stupid in sometimes
Oxhorn dang. That's crazy. So many prewar corporate shinnagins....
In part the great war did something good for the world by ending all those evil and corrupt companies and business's men
Titán X enclave doh
Even now NV keeps surprising me i did not know about the hidden doors and having the ability to stop the sentry bots from attacking Thanks for showing them Ox
18:30 Titan is covered in hydrocarbons so while they're not technically "fossil" in origin, you could use it as a source "fossil fuel" equivalents.
Ah I see, thanks!
Oxhorn Everyone loves you Oxhorn, especially me!
Sorry if there is any typos.
Oxhorn Hello Oxhorn, love your videos, keep up the great work!
Oxhorn. you are a settler on Xbox mods lol I got you at red 🚀
enclave president The Enclave will never win!
You can get access to the third floor by having low intelligence too-- your courier screams ICE CREAM! And its accepted as the password XD
it's a high luck perk too.
There's also a way to sneak up via a collapsed ceiling and, if you have 'Robotics Expert' perk, deactivate the robots there without triggering an alarm, or sneak attack kill.
Damn. I adore fallout 4, dont get me wrong, but this is the kind of stuff it was missing. How did Obsidian even have *time* to think of all these different ways to solve these situations?!
Jeres, maybe they didn't. I used to DM pen and paper RPGs and I discovered the best way to create a 'good' dungeon wasn't to just set a bunch of tricks and traps and monsters with a pile of loot at the end, but to instead create a situation and see what the players did with it. In the case of RobCo, the security robots and wandering Mister Handies come naturally from the background situation and so it makes sense that there _should_ be a few ID badges lying about and a way to enter new personnel into the database. Then just add some damage to the building, place the Paladins and you're ready to go. But however they did it, they did a pretty good job
this is why we love new vegas
Plot Twist: Nephi's 9 Iron is the missing rod.
It does have a radiation symbol on the end, and it would hurt tremendously to be hit with a spent fuel rod.

It's a low intelligence responce, not affected by your luck.
La Bartholomeow it can actually be for both - i know this because i've played a 1 intelligence character.
La Bartholomeow ice cream is EITHER low intelligence or high luck response
Battlefield 1, explain your channel name when I look at your channel and find no battlefield 1. Plus your name is a bit sketchy for obvious reasons.
Stellar Labs i like bf1, so there you go.
I think the hidden walls contain a PERFECT SPOT FOR A MIRELURK DEN
Dirpy Turtle but mirelurk are not in new Vegas and there's no water in the hidden walls
Brycelandia Eric there are mirelurks? Ever been to lake mead?
The "Mirelurks" in Lake Meade are called "Lakelurks". They are however just renamed Mirelurk Kings.
Ol Eg I just call them mirelurks for convenience. They are a pain during that one boomer quest where you have to resurface that bomber.
In fallout new vegas they are lakelurks
Oxhorn did you know that the designers messed up and placed TWO safes in the exact same spot in the gift shop? (At Repconn)
I red about that and tried to find it, but the second safe was missing in my game. Maybe I have a mod installed that fixes it.
Yeah that is possible.

it's the small sassy jokes and the hidden messages alongside the great sense of humor and charisma and of course the quick emotional and moral moments... what makes us all love this channel

Oxhorn, thank you for being the one person on youtube who explores Fallout lore in depth. And doing your research beforehand. I'm working on a quest mod and love to listen to your videos in the background for inspiration and can't help but to minimize the creation kit every now and then to watch.
One of my favorite videos that i HAD to watch because it was just beautiful and really made me appreciate Bethesda's dedication, was the exploration of the ocean floors. It was very inspirational for someone like me.
Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
The best lore content creator on RUclips 😁❤️
Those sped up disclaimers are damn funny man lol classic
This dudes videos are so great, his narration and the way he goes through each story is fantastic.
excited for the REPCONN launch site video, I loved that quest!
Electrify me too I asked him to do that on his first fallout new vegas lore video

Who else agrees that New Vegas has more lore than the other fallouts.
it's a better game
than the other fallouts besides maybe 1 & 2
Ironically, it has the lowest review scores of any Bethesda fallout game
MGOK Likely due to basically being a Fallout 3 add-on basically nothing was changed.
Bestgameplayer10 That right there is one horrible misconception my friend
Bestgameplayer10 nothing changed ....
This building is really a prime example of why I LOVE Fallout:New Vegas. It features hilarious writing (esp. in the museum area), it's interconnected with other multiple missions/locations/factions (sometimes in obvious ways, sometimes in obscure ways), and there are umpteen different ways to apply a variety of skills to make one's way through the building.
Great video about a great building in a great game!
Just goes to show that Pre-War times were as cutthroat and callous despite the sugar-coating of it all. Great lore videos Oxhorn! New Vegas is a great game loaded to the brim with juicy details!
i think that the RADman (or whatever he is called you find him during that quest with the ghouls and the rockets) probably took the "dull rod"
Game Junkie that's what she said
as always the internet delivers
Mr. RADical. It's not mentioned in his notes, but it's certainly possible.
The gun you find is one of the best energy weapons and I was so happy when I got it
1:04 god I fucking love this game.
out of 100+ hours of fallout nv, i still did not find a hidden door in repconn :/
How about now 3 years later
lol only 100 hours
Rookie numbers
I've had like 6 different playthroughs and I've never noticed the hidden wall
your lore videos make me want to go back to this game
G3N3R41 P4TT0N - everytime the game crashes, take a shot. you'll remember why you left.
Darkmage1293 My game has never crashed? It's far more stable now.
G3N3R41 P4TT0N I never crash, but I do get stuck in rocks occasionally
i had no trouble with crashes, but in my experience the DLC seems to CAUSE the crashes somehow? it didn't crash at all until i got a copy of the GOTY edition. Before that i had a dlc-free fallout new Vegas. But once the DLC was added i started seeing a lot more crashes.
GEORGE ROWLAND ah that makes sense! is there any way to fix that? that same issue has been preventing me from going on an exploration spree in fallout 3
hey ox I don't know if you've already covered this but did you know that Mr House and Andrew Ryan are both based on Howard Hughes.
Fossil fuels on other planets is possible, most of our oil came from basic alge, coal is just concentrated carbon, and methane/ Propane is a natural gas, i believe i know helium can be formed from deteriorating elements into a basic form, i don't think that applies to propain though
Saturn's moon Titan has seas and lakes full of light and medium hydrocarbons , the atmosphere is 20 times thicker than earth's full hydrocarbons and nitrogen
@@tylersoto7465 you know what's funny I can't type or talk like this anymore it's amazing what 3 years can do
@@vomitedthoughts lol, what happened
@@tylersoto7465 life, death, and the real world Christ alive if only they taught us better
@@vomitedthoughts true it is sad to go on and on for thousands of years and we still haven't learned anything at all and hope things will get better, god bless you
There is a moon of Jupiter or Saturn (forgotten which) where it rains the same hydrocarbons that make up crude oil, a 'fossil fuel'.
Titan, one of moons of Saturn.
He's a gamer not a astronomer.
@@nicholascross3557 thanks!
Titan is half the size of earth, with seas and lakes full of light and medium hydrocarbons and the atmosphere is 20 times thicker than earth's full of hydrocarbons and nitrogen would be great if our moon and Titan switch places lol
I'm loving your sped up disclaimer voice, lol! My favorite one you did was the one for the Silver Shroud video! That was awesome and so time period-appropriate!
*[Luck 7]* Ice Cream
7:06 Fun fact. Standing on the display case will still irradiate you at about 1 rad per second. Maybe it's just a limitation of assets, but I believe the rod is still there, hence the latent radiation.
Still out here watching through all of these great old lore videos in 2020. Thanks for the entertainment!
playing new vegas for the first time in about 6 years…. god the detail and appreciation of lore in Bethesda / Obsidian games is amazing. Truly the best Fallout game , in my opinion .
Obsidian really. They made a fallout game that's been better than anything Bethesda has released since morrowind.
😂I love the high pitched voice while reading the disclaimers😂😂😂
hahaha! I love your fast low volume voice when you read the disclaimers.
I imagine wheeled protectrons as the fallout version of daleks. Constantly foiled by their greatest enemy: stairs
I really like how well and how thorough you tell the Fallout(s) Stories. If you play fallout games and you just skip through missions because of so much dialog, Oxhorn will tell you the full story and even show you things you might've missed. Love your work man keep it up!
ICE CREAM!
Low INT
or high luck.
Keep doing these New Vegas LORE videos. They're great and I like the way you tell the stories. You should do that REPCONN Test Site and Black Mountain. The Test Site is my favorite. I loved watching the rocket launch. It's the only time we ever get to see something like that in the Fallout Universe.
I have already done both of those places. Checkout my Fallout New Vegas playlist.
Oxhorn Awesome. And thank you again and again for making these videos. Keep up the good work man.
Could have sworn I read ALL these entries already ... This is the first time I ever find out about RobCo's hostile takeover of RepConn. Awesome vid!
based on the real world PEPCON facility in Henderson, NV - had an explosion there back in 1988. 2 dead. 372 injured. $100 million in damage. The explosion was so powerful, it broke windows at McCarran Airport.
Ox, when you get down to doing videos about FNV mods, I'd suggest the Hope Lies mod. It's a really well done companion mod with a neat little quest.
I thought the mister handy was made by General atomics, who were in competition with Robco?
Joint venture says the Wiki.
just discovered you a couple days ago... I'm in love! not just cuz of the games you talk about but the way you tell the stories. keep it up
You, sir, are a master story teller.
Honestly mate, I've been binge watching your videos and I have appreciated Fallout 4 even further than before... of course it can't beat Interplay's narrative still... highly appreciated
keep up the amazing work
this series should be on Fallout Wiki
I love your videos Oxhorn, i love how you reveal what tech innovative descriptions that are present in the game.
Background on RobCo, ReppCon, Helios One and others.
Brings out the engineer in all of us.
about fossil fuels:
have you ever heard of Titan (Saturn's moon)?
These videos are great for watching while I play along with the game, like for when I don't quite get the lore the terminals are trying to tell and need a summary, or I can't get past very hard locks.
I still play new vegas. Thank you for realizing this game is so rich in content
I love the voice Ox did for the safety warnings at the bottom of the plaques
the voice actor for the Mr handy in fallout 4 sounds way better than these ones
Grievous Reborn they try to sound different though, in fo4 the voice is meant to sound organic, like a human, but in this they sound synthesized, like a conventional robot, in my opinion both are equally good
Grievous Reborn Mr Handy in Fallout 3 and New Vegas sound like the actual robot from the era
My Hentai Girl They sound the same in Fallout 3 and Fallout 4.
the voice actor for the ms handy and ur character in fonv sounds like ben from ben 10 alien force
Objective Apples That's because they share the same voice actor (Yuri Lowenthal). I thought the Mr. Handy sounded like him too, but I couldn't find it under his list of voices in the game. (But...much like Young Justice he voiced like every character in New Vegas, so I might have missed it.)
I love the way Oxhorn reads the plaques
"Who doesn't love Marvin the Martian?"
TBH with you Ox, I think at least one third of your audience doesn't know him. I know him, i watched the "Looneytunes back in action" movie like a 1000 times.
You didn't mention that REPCONN is a possible reference to PEPCON, the Pacific Engineering and Production Company of Nevada. You might have heard about their chemical plant exploding in Henderson, Nevada in 1988.
Hello Oxhorn! I recently found this channel and the first video I watched I knew each video you made was going to be exceptionally good. I appreciate the hard work and research you put into each video. The topics you talk about for example Pulowski Preservation shelters I did not have a clue that Bethesda named the shelters after a man. I look forward to watching each video you put out.
I cant wait for Fallout Frontier we will finally go to space on our own terms, and in new vegas technically, i also think the institute needed the deep range device from arkjet to either, reverse engineer it, to teleport further away, or to talk to the satellites that the Enclave made prewar, like the one in fallout 3 broken steel, or the Archimedes 2
Lmao at your sped up reading of the plaque disclaimers XD
When i saw the security is your duty poster i thought i was still in a loading screen and just stood there for a few minutes
Love you Oxhorn
Lol
It's sunday, it's raining like a mother outside, the temperature is a nice cool & windy but not cold 20ºC, I had a shower, got some coffee and am watching some relaxing Oxhorn lore videos while playing some Fallout 4 myself on the hunt for the last few achievements. Life ain't perfect but this has been a pretty good day.
That tour guide’s voice sounds a bit demonic along with robotic. So it is kind of unnerving when he speaks. I kind of would like the plaques in exhibits to have a condescending tone. Good to reinforce the do not touch and other etc rules.
Loved the Q-35 in my first playthrough. Lanius didn't know what hit him.
thank you oxhorn for making these videos, i really appreciate it. Makes my day a little better every day.
You know, the story of this place may actually be detailing the catalyst for Mr. House breaking his ties to the Enclave.
Idk man this museum seems like a PERFECT SPOT FOR A MIRELURK DEN to me.
How you read the "fine print" is so hilarious, Oxhorn!
Hey, I have a question. Isn't Mr. Handy a trademark of General Atomics International? Or is this just a continuity error, like the creation of Jet.
I know this is an old video but I LIVE for your fallout lore videos! I watch them all the time cause it's so familiar and comforting.
I'm calling it now. Next character profile is gonna be Veronica Santangelo.
Nice video. You make the story more interesting than actually knowing it straight from the game. maybe is because you put it all togheter. Nice video man! Keep it up! I loved the format. I just found you btw, i will be watching all your vids from now hahahaha
Loving the new vegas lore keep it up!
Oxhorn reading the plaques really sounds fitting.
P E R F E C T S P O T F O R A M I R E L U R K D E N
Arthur Lamouroux why is everyone saying this did I miss something?
Kevin Raygoza Watch Thicket Excavations
Arthur Lamouroux thank you
In fallout new vegas they are called lakelurks
Stormboxer I don’t know either
Honestly, I'd say Julia Masters was a Poseidon plant, and was probably working with them around the time of the original buyout offer and got them to back down when they realised she was using repconn and robco to develop their project.
Someone stole that Rod you can say they been ROBED, ROBCOED, my first attempt at a joke
Tyler Adams Don't quit your day job.
Robbed? Robed means wearing a robe.
Thanks for this! Had a tough time piecing together, so this really helps. Keep up the good work!
boy I do love me some new Vegas lore
Oxhorn kicks the bathroom door open
Human, sitting on the toilet: CAN I POO FIRST!!!
I kind of suspect that Julie was working for Poseidon the entire time. She tanked their bid as a ruse, partly to get RobCo interested in buying, and partly to position herself to where she could arrange for RobCo to buy it successfully while coming out looking like a valuable person to keep on after the acquisition. This put her in a great position to feed Poseidon info from RobCo and RepCon.
I thought Poseidon was just a gas station...
Oh wait, duh. Euclid's c finder.
I recently came here during my latest playthrough. I, ironically, didn't have a high enough speech to pass the skill check on the first floor, but I had a 9 in luck so I could explore the third floor without fear.
Why would you jam your opportunity to get more XP?
Good on you for noticing the hidden walls- those each contain a Securitron that activates should you trip the security system here. If you jam the doors however, the one behind that door essentially despawns and never activates. You lose out on some scrap and ammo, but you gain not having to fight the potential threat.
Wow, I forgot the game actually hints you to the fact of the hidden walls. Good show!
A note to Project Nevada users, the Q-35 is one of the two default weapons modified to have a chargeup mechanic to it. Good times.
imagine that in the new fallout you find a cave and you find 3 skeletons one has a armored vault suit 101 the other has a ncr ranger suit the other has a vault suit 111 and then you find two dog Skeltons both named dogmeat nice Easter egg
Alex Castaneda but it would be non canon.
Who cares they rewrote history just for some power armor
What easter egg?
Alex Castaneda no one gives a shit about an armor
Alex Castaneda and that would destroy a whole canon.
Hey Oxhorn, I am really excited about your New Vegas companion videos! I would love to hear your take on Joshua Graham.
Idk, but I think there is a Lore mistake made by Obsidian there. 15:40 Mr. Handys weren't created by RobCo, but by General Atomics International. I know because my Mr. Handy Codsworth told me himself. So it couldn't be displayed in that museum as a RobCo creation... Unless of course RobCo acquired General Atomics too. Damn you Mr. House... :p
Joint venture says the Wiki.
While I mostly watch this channel for the FO4 lore, there were 2 subjects from NV I was looking forward to you doing. You already did one (Boone's story), the other is Come Fly With Me. That was, by far, my favorite quest in the game. I really hoped those ghouls made it to somewhere good. But I liked Jason Bright, one of the top 5 best characters in the game I thought. Since you mentioned the quest here, and it ties directly in to Repcon, I'm hoping it means that will be your next NV video.
As always, I love your channel and the time and effort you put in to all your videos.
I have been watching you for a long while and I have began to like this Chanel so I will subscribe

Absolutely loving these New Vegas lore videos, Oxhorn!
Just thought I'd point this out. While not technically 'fossil fuels', Titan is covered in lakes of liquid hydrocarbons.
Yes it is the moon titan is rich in hydrocarbons to be used, what I don't get why didn't the US just irrigate a couple billion acres of empty land to grow corn, soybean etc to make biofuels like high octane ethanol and diesels and jet fuel etc it would of been plenty to fuel the US multiple times over
Such high quality content and regular upload times. Oxhorn you are the best RUclipsr
Oxhorn can u do a vid on preston gravy impressanator?
Carlos Portanova where is Preston Gravy?
hahahahah garvy lel typo
Carlos Portanova Oxhorn should do a video on grammar, that would help you A WHOLE LOT.
oh I'm srry tell that to auto correct
Carlos Portanova ok lol
You looked to the wrong sides of the Handy when he was talking about barrels...
But so did I, the first time.
Do tHe eNcLave plz
