So I counted the tick marks on the gun wrong. Also, there is no way to know exactly how many men he killed due to the way the game uses textures--it mirrors them on each side of the gun. So the texture has 38 tick marks, but since it is mirrored, the gun has 76. So he could have killed between 38 or 76 men.
Also, the difference between 1918 and 2044 is 126 years, not 63.
Thanks for clearing up the BoS label on the folder--this was due to a texture mod I had installed.
Finally, we're forced to believe 1 of 2 options--that Festus replaced all delivery drivers, and continues to deliver the soda to machines to this day (which requires me to suspend too much of my disbelief, since he is an animatronic toy in a box), or that the company bought another, unnamed experimental robot truck driver (at the exact same time they bought Festus) which we never see in any trucks, nor anywhere else in any Fallout game. I'm not satisfied with either explanation, honestly.
I love your videos, only watched 2 so far but oh my I have so many to view. Thank you for this! This is exactly what I wanted.
Hey Ox, If the Sunset Sarsaparilla Company was founded in 1918, and the Nuka Cola Company was founded in 2044, then the SS company is 126 years older than the NC company, not just 63 years older as you've said.
Um Ox also... the recipe for the sunset sarsparilla came from a family. It is very possible the date shown on the sarsparillas is the date of the recipe, not the date when mass production started. Thinking about it this way it all makes sense.
Oxhorn i just notice at 19:35 the quest failed legend of the stars, maybe they wanted an alternate option in this quest but drop it in the end?
Oxhorn please do a video about every wasteland creature is mutated of
I love how Festus is riddled with bullet holes, showing that over the years many folks have found 50 stars and went to claim the prize but when they found out what it was they shot poor Festus.
Or, they found out that they didn't have *enough* Star caps and shot Festus, since he never gives the number you need to collect.
Poor Festus.

On an evil character I picked up the deputy stars, and started roleplaying as some kind of serial killer who'd leave a star on all his victims.

I didn’t see the fire-fight, I only learned about it after turning around and seeing Thomas chasing me into Nipton to tell me he was almost murdered
I think it because when you fought a group of Jackals gang, you get close to Nipton and it's trigger the encounter
I'm not sure how Thomas appears, i think it's either collect a set amount of star bottle caps or have atleast 1 in your inventory by the time you get to Nipton
I encountered him way earlier in Sloan. That's where he approached me bout the Caps. After Sloan I went to check on the Major of Nipton. I had the Jackals gang fight. Blew em all at once with Dynamite. Ran to Nipton's entrance, but only noticed Jacklyn, no gunfight.
Just learned about that here in the video. So now I'll be going back to that save point and look for Thomas lying in the wasteland behind where Jacklyn came running up to me. I didn't put too much thought into the 'someone chased/attacked her' dialog back then. Amazing how after all these years, NV is still holding my heart hostage.
That happened to me

Telling tale of an “immortal man” who is actually a humanoid robot is fantastic writing.

The reason for the Robco robots in the Repconn Facility is not a lore mistake, it's because the was a hostile takeover by Robco, and the robots got sent in to help with security, it's all in the terminals in the Repconn Offices.
The Mr. Handy robots were developed by Robco and General Atomics as a collaborative project.
And the Mr. Tour guide tells you at the final parts that robco owns repconn
I enjoy the results of the quest. Even after collecting the 1500 caps, the laser gun, and badges you still feel cheated by the company. I think it's that kind of roleplaying and storytelling that makes this game re-playable over and over again.

Pretty sure the lore basis for this quest was the Indian/star design found on some Tootsie Pop wrappers. The urban legend was that if you collected 10, you could redeem them at stores for a free Tootsie Pop. It was such a pervasive myth that the stores just started honoring it.
It increases sales. And if the store sells them, they know they'll sell more.
I spent so long trying to find stars on those things as a kid xD sm time wasted.
When Malcolm talked about the Sunset Sarsaparilla Star caps, and mentioned Festus guarding a treasure, I was under the impression that Festus was a ghoul, given his age. I ended up laughing when I actually saw Festus for myself.
First time I played New Vegas I thought Allen Marks was going to find me and attack after I picked up enough star bottle caps. Hahahah. Really awesome writing this game!!

In my 1st gameplay of this game also it being my 1st fallout game I thought some kind of great cursed knight from old world is guarding great treasure and only those bottle caps can help him to retire and end the curse.I really didn't know why i thought that while playing a post apocalyptic rpg game but when i found it I was so dumbfounded finding a goddamn Akinator knockoff.
Did anyone die laughing when they saw the little sheriff badge on the corpse? He be like: I may be a terrible person and about to shoot myself, BUT GODDAMMIT I WON THAT PRIZE

Keep in mind that within Festes' speech, he has a legal obligation to say that Nuka Cola is great drink. It wouldn't surprise me if Badburton forced Sunset to change the story to make it sound like Nuka-Cola has been and always will be the greatest drink on the market. Even going so far as to try to change the past. This is a man so diluted, he tried to beat death and live forever. Clearly a man not within normal faculties.
"I solved the Sunset Sarsaparilla's secret, and all I got is this lousy badge!"
Good for you👌
thankfully Allen became the prize for his murderous scavenging hunt, so SS can save their "Steenking Badges", i'll take the gun, caps and all the sass i can carry, i feel sorry for anyone who comes looking for the prize after my characters leave, as they will get a piss poor consolation prize for their efforts.

Festus: Basically no purpose
My mind: Would have been cool if he secretly did have legs and chased you around the building XD
No, even creepier, he just walked with you, creepily, as if nothing strange was happening!
This whole quest felt like a Dark Mirror episode, A loser who live in a futuristic wasteland, heard a rumour about a unique bottlecap hunting game, and realize this is probably the only thing that can gave his life a meaning, a goal that he can chase for, so he leave behind his mother, the person who company him in his life.
And as time goes on, he start to became a part of the wasteland, became a wanderer who would do anything just for his goal even killing, and after he finally got enough of it, he goes to the factory, gave festus all his cap, and go to receive his life goal, and after realizing the thing he has been chasing his whole life is just a bunch of toy medal, feeling all dispersed, he ended his own life in shame

Hi, sorry for being off topic. I'm an aspiring animator and I've recently released a Fallout New Vegas animation that took me 5 months to do, but RUclips doesn't promote my videos so I have to do it myself. I'd be glad if you come and have a look :)
Good old non-bethesda world building.
Its damn impressive for something most players look over.
I am really surprised they didn't spawn only 49 star bottle caps just to make the quest unsolvable dooming us all to look for the 50th cap...
9:00 I love how ox says he knows alot about the caps even though hes not a collector. Even though he literally just said he used to collect them. Why yes ox, it appears his memory still works even though he doesn't collect them anymore.
I don't think Festus was the robot they reference in the computers. Remember that guy who gave you the quest mentions that someone keeps refilling the vending machines and the computer in the loading bay mentions a robot is already doing the deliveries. So there is a robot wandering the desert refilling the machines and comeing back to the factory every once in a while to restock.
So unless it's cut content, there may be a robot filled with bottles wandering out there and no one noticed.
you never know they said it was cowboy themed robot, maybe it was victor filling the machines
robo well he does wander and he is a "new" robot... but I am leaning towards cut content.
I agree with this. You don't even need to see the robot doing the filling of the machines, it's enough to hand wave it away. Although now I kinda want to go back to playing New Vegas to see if the Sunset Sarsaparilla machines actually do refill.
Chad Kreutzer just reloaded the game myself to see the same thing, ir even to see if maybe I can find some hint of a wandering delivery robot... it will be an interesting hunt.
Maybe it's some sort of robot like the one you got to search in a quest someone gives you on goodneighbour in Fallout 4
the sunset sarsparilla recipe was an old family recipe that was created in 1918... thats why the barkeeper had to promise to not change the recipe and thats why the company says since 1918
Wow that totally makes sense. Ty.
It makes sense, but it also means that the bartender did kill the man to avoid fulfilling his end of the agreement. This also assumes that since it wasn't mentioned in the story that festus told, that the bartender had to have gotten that information before he killed the man and took the recipe. Then again, the bartender could have made it up to make the company look older.
@Sith'ari Azithoth yeah, I should have said probably means or something to indicate that I was providing another theory. I totally went down the dark path with my thought though. Just seemed to fit nicely in my mind.
I live in Vegas and went to our museum, and there is alot of historical shit like the old mob families like the Van Graffs , Nellis Airforcebase legends, hooverdam conspiracies aswell as facts and marylin Monroe and Elvis secrets and debuts here back in the hay day Facts and legends also how we got a stripclub here that’s so old that it’s backed up by the old Wild West laws that allow it the only strip club to sell alcohol and fully nude girls , (which is illegal now : clubs can only serve alcohol in a topless joints) but the point of what I’m saying is there was a soda company here back at the end of the Wild wild West days the flavor was sarsaparilla something and the story goes exact the buyer was to not change the recipe and in end (he did) and the owner found out so to protect his family legacy did the deed well, so many believe is what I learned the buyer disappeared with the owner never to be seen , the company didn’t live long for health reasons years into business, many people got sick after drinking the softdrink after a few years , you know like how we drink Coca Cola. To this day it’s still mystery where they went. it’s crazy how Fallout adds real historic events in their video games .

I absolutely love this quest, when you stop and think about it, it makes complete sense compared to the Nuka world "Hidden Cappy". It's a contest meant for kids that adults in the wasteland are treasure hunting for, of course the prize isn't meant to be big. Everything from the deputy stars to the suicide note was perfect.
Just proves how desperate the wastelanders are if they’re willing to kill for a contest prize for literal children. Common sense would immediately tell us that it would be a waste of time and resources, but not these poor bastards.
what do you mean? the hidden cappy quest was to meet John c. Bradburton where you had to go around the rides to find them using glasses. both are just as childish as the other.
You’re inspiring me to play RPGs differently. I now focus on the context of the game instead of running and gunning and trying to beat the game. When you play New Vegas like this it makes the game 10x better

Logical Phallusy Erm . . . what? I didn't watch the entire video, but didn't hear anything where he slandered Obsidian in the parts I did watch. And even if he did say some negative things, at least he's talking about the game. Better than no one saying anything and New Vegas being forgotten.
Logical Phallusy Fair enough, but I don't see how blundering on a few minor lore points is a big enough deal to say he's slandering Obsidian. As for the Fallout 4 thing, I've only just recently found this channel, and if he did make that video, then yeah, he's a bit of a dick. I'll find it and watch it for myself in a bit.
Logical Phallusy Dude, I'm just trying to be positive. This is a fun video about Fallout lore, not an informational documentary on historical topics. Watching this video over again, I don't see how him nitpicking or screwing up on a few minor facts is so detrimental to Obsidian's image that he is a "slanderer/hypocrite" who deserves outrage. I also don't see how him asking for Patreon donations makes him worse than someone who does this kinda thing for free either. Guy's gotta make money somehow. I think you're taking this way too seriously. Obsidian definitely doesn't care, they've left the Fallout franchise behind. They certainly don't need you wearing out your hands keyboard warrior-ing in their defense. Be happy that people make these type of videos at all. And enjoy said videos, rather than trying to rally people against creators and being negative towards a positive comment.
I just collected 50 star caps in under two weeks, I've never found that many so fast on any other play through, I'm honestly surprised I managed to find them so easily. It's been a few years since I played last and this run has been one of my funnest ever, I'm finding _everything_ now lol.
Idk why everyone takes so long i found 53 star caps by just playing through the game normally over the span of maybe 3 days i didnt keep count but it was no more than that
@@Ailxo to be fair I don't get a lot of time to play, I usually get in 4-5 hours a week of game time so for me finding them in two weeks isn't that long a period, I found them within roughly 10 hours of starting my playthrough. If I could play all day long non-stop I could have done it in a day or two.
Yeah I just looked on the wiki and kept chugging sasparilla had em in about 3-4 hours
You'll find all of them by just wandering around and inspecting random caps. Sunset Sarsaparilla also heals rather good, I usually level Survival and use water with Sarsa to regen in a fight while also being the fraction of the price of a stim. Replace your stims with some cheap water and Sarsa then sell the stims for cash; should get you into Vegas without issue and can even clear the credit check.
23:28 maybe if you didn't use texture mods and play the game vanilla you'd notice that the folder is actually not what you said it was.

My favourite part was Allen Marks actually wearing the deputy badge. I don't know why Oxhorn didn't comment on this because that's honestly hilarious.
He wasn't wearing it though, it just sitting on his body, like it was put there.
Vladamire D That's just because the deputy badge isn't actually a piece of apparel. He is supposed to be wearing it.
I do know that there is a mod that let you wear the deputy's badge.
Yeah Its mean that he realize and appreciate? the prize haha
What if Festus - can actually walk and is an evil fucker in discuise? What if after learning the story - Allen just went "FUCK IT" and ventured into the factory, which triggered Festus to go after him, locking him away at the storehouse as soon as he entered? What if Festus - existed prior to the whole Star Caps and was the one, who originally started it? What if he is one of the most powerful robots out there and one of the smartest minds in the Wasteland?
DON'T WAIT TO FIGURE IT OUT THE HARD WAY - VAULT-TEC, THE FUTURE IS TODAY, WE HAVE ANSWERS IF YOU HAVE THE CAPS
At 21:40 I feel that the founding date of sunset sarsaparilla is actually the founding date of the saloon, which is a possibility that was missed out in this theory
i think it is pretty clear (in my mind at least) that they were going for festus being more than he seemed as a sort of brain for the other robots which would control them and give them more complex tasks and instructions (think fallout 4 nukaworld star-control) and that is how he took over delivery jobs by either allowing other robots to drive or even maybe remotely controlling the trucks themselves
After this dark story I need a drink....
OF ICE COLD SUNSET SARSAPARILLA
now that's some salesmanship
What about some FIERY HOT MOONLIGHT ROOT BEER~?
Joe Clayton Too bad the war destroyed many bottles.
PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE WITH VAULT-TEC!
Joe Clayton why not take a sip from your trusty vault 13 canteen?
Timmy Teaches Why drink from a water canteen when you can drink an ICE-COLD NUKA COLA
It's possible that the company really was founded in 1918 while the drink itself wasn't created until after Nuka-Cola came into being.
Using a real world example, the NES - Nintendo's first video game system - was created in 1984, but the company itself started in 1889. So, Nintendo - really old, *the* Nintendo - not so old.
This comment is underrated
@@Irvinnn Thank you for the praise, but I commented a year after the video was made. I'm surprised people even saw this.
1889?! What?!¿¿¿¿
@@dibs0equiped They started out as a playing card company.
Yeah, but they didn't call themselves Nintendo Video Games or something like that. It's odd that a company called Sunset Sarsaparilla would spend 126 years in operation before getting the idea that they should possibly get into the business of maybe, possibly making sarsaparilla as their one and only product.
Some people accuse video games of corrupting the youth... but we have Oxhorn here turning every side quest into a morality tale.
This guy has me tearing up about random characters in games I don't even play.
I always get approached by Malcolm immediately after picking up the blue star cap in Jenny's Skydiving just outside of Goodsprings. The "New-fangled" robot the guy is talking about could have been an Assaultron, even though those weren't a thing until Fallout 4.
This whole quest feels like collecting box stamps for school drives and then not even getting the bike at the end

Thank you and i subscribed to your channel!!!!
I played a very little bit of the first game but these lore vids of the games are great. I think this is the 6th one I've watched at night after climbing in bed and sparking up a J. The vids are very chill and if I fall asleep with the playlist on they're all mostly the same vol level with not big vol blasts to wake us or the dog up(which wakes me up). It's hard to find stuff like that to put on at night. And I need something playing. Usually an audiobook of a book I know really well so I don't try to really listen to intently. Chill stuff like that are some of the best ways to fall asleep for me.

As much as I hate to say it, that’s not a bottlecap press, that’s a milling machine. It would make for a terrible press.
Make some high ass end caps.

@@KynBleiddVI so you crack open the boys
@@rew1677 indeed sometimes ya have to crack some skulls for a little root beer
"Anyways the quest was finished"
Ox, why is there still 30 minutes left ?
There used to be a glitch with Scorpion gulch. You can find one cap on the man there. If you leave and fast travel in again it spawns again and again etc. Can save a lot of hunting for them.

Get the sherif duster from prim
I always see him after she’s already dead, It’s like this random encounter just spawns way before I’m in range to see it lol
I sided with Tomas immediately when I heard her screaming "help me!". I was glad to find my instincts were good when I found Tomas was the real victim there.
The "New Toy" couldn't have been Festus, because the "New Toy" is part of the distribution network. Festus is immobile. With it being a Cowboy Robot, it has to be Victor. Victor was made by RobCo, after all.
?
I believe ive solved the riddle. Its absolutely not victor, since he works for Mr House. Theres also no real reason for a company thats already working directly with robco to invite Mr House in as a middleman. I think based on the information we can assume that Festus came AFTER the newfangled robot. They had already tripled their sales before even coming up with the idea for a contest to begin with. Wikipedia says this happened around 2077. So if by 2077 the other robots were already operating, and mister handy was 1st invented in 2037, theres a pretty good chance it could have been mister handy. Even more interesting is that mister handy didn’t gain popularity until at least 2042 when it was used to help clean up after a large earthquake in mexico. So if by 2077 sunset sarsaparilla is cranking out bottles, and just 35 years before that this new robot with ALL the necessary features was popularized...... i think we can safely assume that mister handy is this “newfangled new robot”. I think when that guy says everything was being “singlehandedly” taken over by a robot i don’t think he literally meant 1 single robot. I believe he was referring to a single model of robot. Maybe mister handy does packaging and delivery and the protectrons are considered security and not part of actual manufacturing or delivery. In that scenario mr handy could logically be considered to be the newfangled robot. Mr handy is also clearly the most versatile of the robots, he can shoot, he floats over any terrain, he cleans, he bottles, and apparently he repairs water leaks and all sorts of other things. Victor on the other hand doesn’t do half of that stuff, he’s basically just a stalker with creepy smile and a gun. I think it’s basically confirmed that the “newfangled robots” have to be mister handy, because everything coincides, even the years and their functionality. The same can’t be said of any other robot models.
@@alexcrowder1673 From a Business-To-Business standpoint it does make sense for Mr House to want to middleman his own robot. Crazy entrepreneur working with larger corporations tends to pull that kind of shit.
Thomas Davis For mr house of course it would make sense, but why would sunset pay mr house extra money for a robot they can buy cheaper from robco directly? They are already in business with robco. It would be utterly illogical. It would be like target buying its goods from walmart instead of a wholesaler.
Why are y’all assuming the new toy and the cowboy robot are one in the same? There are a hundred robots at the place. They started with one robot, which lead to the reworking of the distribution network, and then ordered more. It isn’t even mentioned in the same message as the cowboy robot
Your blue star caps will make a fine addition to my collection
General Festusi, you are a bold one!
The really bad Animation show OMG ITS CAPEY FROM FALLOUT 4 NUKEA WORLD
Wow did not expect a Star Wars reference good job on the original comment (NOT SARCASTIC)
Speaking on the out of order sign on the wall. I would theorize that there was a vending machine there at one point, but due to all the human workers being replaced it would have been removed.
_Another interaction with Jacklyn & Tomas:_ If Jacklyn wins the duel with or without your help and end the dialogue without acknowledging Sunset Sarsaparilla Stars value, go to Tomas's body, pick and read his journal then talk back to Jacklyn, another dialogue option got unlocked about her stealing his lucky charm necklace.
The end results is she turned hostile.
So, Mr Handies in a RobCo facility is getting the Lore wrong?
"Mister Handy robots are utility robots created as part of a joint project between General Atomics International and RobCo Industries."
Obsidian has many employees who worked on the original Fallout games, one of them even said in a Reddit post that they did use the old Fallout Bible and old documents for refreshing their memories, which sometimes lead to conflicts due to the changes Bethesda made to the Fallout Lore.
That also explains the 1918 vs 2044, originally Nuka Cola was just a parody on Coca Cola, which was founded in 1886, Obsidians fallout veterans propably remembered that. Now Bethesda themself fucked up on their own founding date too, watch the Fallout 4 Intro, in around 1 minute, if those two are supposed to be the great great grandfathers wife and son, then there is a Nuka Cola Bottle in 1944/45.
Logical Phallusy He didn't really "blast" Obsidian for that. He just offered a possible explanation for what happened in a calm and matter-of-fact manner (even though we found out that was incorrect).
@Logical Phallusy
dude chill the fuck out. You commented the same thing on this video several times over several days.
I'm sure he's integer enough.
Logical Phallusy it's a game, chill the fuck out. I'm super into this shit too, but stop making it so fucking personal. It's a fucking game
Not gonna lie that one was pretty cool
A 50 minute video on a virtual drink... MMMMMM I LOVE IT
It would be cool if the drink was real, and had a similar creation and unique story. Plus the Star Caps thing. I think if someone was actually to come out with it, it could really get big.
49:28*
I mean it is fallout 4
aden Torres dumbass
Yo that profile pic
Another option with Jacklyn is say you have no idea, and then pickpocket the 9 bottle caps out of her... she will keep walking for a while but she will eventually realise that you stole them. But that gives you the option to get the caps whiout killing her.
Here’s what I think about Festus. I do think that he was the delivery driver, and that he originally may have had a truck to suit him specifically, him not needing legs since his own little computer could regulate how much gas the truck gets to control it’s speed, probably the same with the steering wheel. Seeing as how the games take place in the future, I find it more likely. It was probably after a lot of company fighting happened that everyone decided to convert Festus from a truck driving robot to a consumer animatronic by removing him from his original truck base and mounting him in the new little saloon base he has as an animatronic, which could have potentially been done by Robco as ordered by the higher-ups at Sunset Sarsaparilla. That way people could have their jobs back and everything could be resolved, but as soon as this happened, the bombs fell and nobody really had time to document such on a terminal, or the info about this change is on the destroyed terminals. Just my theory on this. Or, like you said, the actual driver robot was just cut from the game.
I was imagining that Festus or some other Robco commissioned robot had the ability to remotely control the delivery trucks.
Malcolm: Allen marks has killed people for those caps. Oxhorn: *Looks* *for* *Allen* *Marks*
DED G0AT Also Oxhorn: Kills Malcom for his caps
"each one has well over a hundred bottle caps!" meanwhile is looting a crate that has 84 caps in it :^ )
Im more like :^ ) right now dunno if you get the refrence
I don't think I do :0
Triggered
@1 subscriber with no videos pretty sure he adds the commentary later.
He looted other crates that did have well over 100 caps in them
Wish we got to see Allen Marks alive, imagine how cool it would to have him stalking the player through the factory, before attacking them at the vault. Similar atmosphere to vault 22
“We find a corpse against the wall”
You take a sip from your trusty vault 13 canteen
Would have been cooler if after you find the loot and return to the lobby Festus is missing and it's just an empty box
Z Blade I would have shat my pants after reading what festus might be for a sick fucker
I was disappointed the Sunset quest wasn't more horror movie inspired. Or at least Creepypasta I guess. Seemed like the perfect setup.
Z Blade next thing you know you just got out of a fight with the legion and he just jumpscares you and kills you
Ian Chen no dont reference that game its stupid but yeah and no you would go into dialogue with him and he says now its time for your real prize

I actually completed this but and Festus was still functional afterwards and I get the point of this was supposed to be that the prize was very disappointing but after you do this Quest you walk away with 1500 caps and a unique weapon I'd say that's a pretty good prize
Had the game for years, I just now finished this quest and the first thing I did was look up your video. I'm so glad that I did not watch it years ago when YT first recommended it, but just thinking of the title and that creepy mug of ol' Festus was keeping me on EDGE! Walking around with the premise that "someone" will escort me, the haunting atmosphere, my character held his gun ready to shoot anything that moved, my imagination conjuring gruesome images, of ambushes, of rooms filled with corpses, the dark secret of the Sunset Sarsaparilla - and of course, a final showdown with Marks, whom (the late) Malcolm kindly warned me of.
Of course, in my heart of hearts, I knew it wouldn't be water, and my bet was on money - I just wasn't sure if I'd be satisfied if it turned out to be that. In the end, it turned out to be so much more. What a twist, the best kind of subversion of my expectations in every way possible! I'm just about to start watching this video, as a sort of closure I guess after years and years of having this sweet, sunset mystery sitting on a shelf in the back of my mind, almost like good ol' Festus, gathering dust and forgotten, until the day the stranger walked through the pearly gates of the Sunset Sarsaparilla Factory.
PS: I wonder how my character's feeling right now, having downed likely 30+ bottles to get a few more stars. The villainous bastard~
Edit: 84?! My guy drank a whole lot more than I thought!
21:45 Good remark on Stating General Atomics did the Mr Handy robot series, however, according to the lore, mr Handy were made in PARTNERSHIP between General Atomics and RobCo, General Atomics being the manufacturer while Robco provided the programmation for the robots of most General Atomics products, including even Liberty Prime.
That plot point was explored in fallout 4 (not 100% sure)
But I guess they ended up getting it right
Cool piece of lore anyhow
Obsidian's lore would be correct anyway since a good part of their team bloody made Fallout. This comment annoyed me lol
@@selty forgot the lore they created
What did you expect from Oxhorn
I never knew that, but that makes sense. I think legally that would also allow Robco to manufacture and utilize the Mr. Handy whenever they wanted too.
You made a 40 minute video about this. And somehow made every minute interesting. Amazing man. Good work
50 mins
I didn’t even realize it was that long
Sounds like somebody forgot all the minutes wasted looking through sunset sasperilla crates, complaining about a visual change on a folder made by his own mod, and talking about a fresh apple.
