Fallout humor was really fucking dark in places and it had to be because of the world it was set.
while true, i have a strong feeling the humor of fallout 3/4/76 is as dark as you're making it out to be.
But God forbid anyone in that world says this:
it was the late 90s. Outside of the Hangover and Strangers with Candy i can't name any works made in the last 20 years where people use the word faggot.
y and 100% not astroturfed reddit
its been like that since the Punisher days, you couldn't say the punisher tv series was dogshit until the show was canceled then the real opinions were allowed. watchmen had a similar shilling and even the supposed "fan boys" if you argued with them post season finale acted like they never even heard of The Watchman
the Courier became House’s fixer
what did House do that the Courier couldn't? Benny was House's original right hand man too and he was willing to let him die the second he found a younger model. for all we know its a sith rule of two situation and you'll have 4 other couriers ready to take your spot.
While its only been a decade the culture in the west has changed alot in those 9 years.
exactly, i'd say culturally the 2010s had as much societal change as the 1960s. the rest of the decades were fairly steady but culture changed so much its insane. in 2014 the top posts on reddit were "revenge porn" of famous women, an entire rip of a major motion picture, and multiple posts shittalking either feminists or blacks. especially saying how uppity black people were. 5 years later you couldn't even call a woman fat on reddit.
Outside of stuff like wars, there was very few thing i can thing of that went super 180 in 5 years. We went from people in 2012 saying you can joke about rape to not even being allowed to say mean things about rapists being let out of jail on cash free bail because they're black.
I guarantee you a fallout tv show that came out in 2011 would have been a lot more raunchy and closer to canon
and weird mix of oddly sexual but sanitized.
not to give props to redbar, but mike david called it out about a decade ago with big jay oakerson's "edgy" comedy. curse words and sex references are acceptable to almost everyone outside of the whitest of societies and places. You can say all the jokes you want about black dick, but call him a nigger and it stops being acceptable.
Another example is that huge post on Twitter, a guy modded the leading lady's body as a joke and everyone got all up in arms, if it was a nun he did that to it would be acceptable but a strong woman protag is sacred to these kikes.
You have to remember this is being released on Amazon that gets away with the same shit on The Boys, except its even sillier, they'll have their nazi character that never uses any unacceptable terms. Which is even more amazing because the Hangover in 2009 had people using all the words.
so many people get in the Vault that it'll be generations before incest can even be remotely considered.
not to go sperg on you but in the west coast vaults wasn't it only 1000 at most, and thats with hot bunking. even if you assume genders were equal and everyone was of breeding age. 500 couples after 10 generations would really have to keep track to avoid incest. if you go on the population numbers in the first fallout there was barely more than 50k people in Southern California by the time the game happens, meaning every death is rather significant.
or where the fucking capital of NCR is located,
i was going to say, Shady sands would be a terrible capital
r. Either he never played the games
to be fair by "played the games" you mean two computer RPGs from the late 90s and one game that connects to it released in 2010. its rather easy to understand why he may not have played them
The characters live in giant cities and towns and metropolitan areas of sometimes tens of millions of people.
the way they explained it in Seinfeld was because they all lived on the same island and you do tend to run into the same people, especially as a comedian when there's only 20 areas you and your friends hang out its rather easy to run into the same fuckers all the time. But yes it was an obvious way of making the world smaller and does sort of fuck with the logic and canon of humans on planet earth, but it was a comedy show and the best way to explain giving Bryan Cranston and other characters more appearances on the show.
God damn it, Drinker. Either he never played the games and merely pretends he does or he is a sellout, neither would surprise me.
