Goin’ Nuclear: A Fallout Documentary 

'Cause he was too busy mispronouncing "nuclear"...

And pronouncing "Permeate" as "Perminate", lol.

HE DID HOW COULD HE

Your profile picture really shows how you feel on this subject

Yeah, I was kinda dissapointed with how small Vegas is but no I understand why. They had to cut a lot of stuff because of the lack of time. Bethesda shouldnt have given them more time. The game would've been even beter

if they had time to polish it and add more of the content they obviously had planned (too many locations that were kinda empty but seemed like they had purpose) it would have been so epic

Agreed. Vegas would have been EPIC! But they would have also shown up BETHESDA far more than they already did with their FAR better game despite this impossible development cycle timeframe. I would honestly still play it if the team was reunited and given as much time they needed to realize their full vision even if its on that ancient engine. Until New Vegas, I really didn’t think I’d ever get to play another “real” Fallout game. NV is like the final bow from Black Isle and deserves to be fully completed at some point similarly to the Fallout 2 restoration project.

Chris has stated that the time presented was fairly normal for an average game development cycle.

Luckily New Vegas add-on packs were also pretty good, and production values were quite excellent. Currently playing New Vegas again. But this time trying out DLC's, which I missed many years ago.

i think the perfect ending would've been: war, war never changes - game franchises do, sometimes even to their worse

Memes never change either.

But men do and the roads they walk.

Pintkonan thats said by the guy who uhh did ‘fallout isn’t fallout’ or at least he said something like ‘War never changes but game design does’

Mike The Gamer it was next to unplayable apparently when it came out. To be fair even now myself and many of my friends find it hard to play as it is still very buggy

I had to add a few mods on to make it fully stable, download 4Gb patcher, Anti Stuttering Patch, and the Anti-Crash Patch.

and dont forget the ugly mouse input lag fix ..... aaaaand the Unofficial Patch

Agreed. I played it for the first time this year and was amazed.

so people complained about all those glitches in NV? i got falllout 3 and nv both when they came out and i have to say fallout 3 is a much crashier and more bug ridden game by far even at NV's release fallout 3 was much much glitchier in current patch mind you

Tbf, it sounds more dramatic than "find the dude who failed to kill you"

@@JCOdrjones Fair

I would rather them do their own thing. a spiritual successor. free of Bethesdas reins

so go play wasteland then

i did pest control for one of the directors at Bethesda and i told him that new vegas was better than 3 even with all the bugs and freezeing. this was before i realized obsidian did new vegas lol

It’s definitely my favorite FO game, but then again, I haven’t played 1 and 2. Really wish I had a PC.

Dustin R lol so it's your fault that Bethesda hates obsidian then

Wow you are just so clever aren't you?

+Tea slurper I was being sarcastic.

How do you guys think it'll end? Also, how do you think The End will come in Pokemon? I have a few ideas myself, but I'd like to hear from ALL OF YOU!

Hey PieGuy, fancy seeing you here. Big fan!

this theory ends with the world being destroyed by a nuclear Holocaust in the year 2077 cause by team skull

jamie george why can't more people in these comments be like you? Thank you for the positive nature you have brought. I am right there with you love hearing, watching and playing anything Fallout related.

Fallout 4 is just a Fallout game from supermutant perspective. "Go. Kill. Loot. Sell."

Couldn’t say it better

@@nastykhan7746 fallout: dumb-dumb edition.

@@user-kc2fu8iw3v super mutants arent actually dumb-dumbs,only mutants who were originally impure humans,but you can thank bethestard for that

@@mayman4255 i know, it all depends on the host. a normal, clean human transforms into an intelligent super mutant, while a human who was exposed to (or possibly inherited from his ancestors) the earlier, radiation-damaged form of fev and developed antibodies to it rejects certain changes of proper fev and becomes dumb. some apparently become so dumb they aren't even able to use weapons and are given mini nukes, told to go kill themselves.

That's illegal. I can't do that.

+Chronicles How is it illegal?

Blu-Ray is Copyrighted. He'd have to get a deal

+Michael Arthurs True. But if AVGN can get a Blu-Ray compilation of his episodes, it can't possibly be that hard to do.

Blue Blu ray

It's our video actually.

Oh, sorry for not mentioning you too. You deserve credit too! You did an awesome job!

ncr trooper

Not really any almost about it actually. New Vegas is by far the best of the first person Fallout games and it isn't even close.

ncr trooper no it dosnt it makes me glad I'm not

Chris Whinery 100% agree

ncr trooper Almost?

you probably meant S.P.E.C.I.A.L

Surely you’re ONLY talking about fallout 3 fallout 4 and fallout 76 yea?

That's down to console hardware limitations. The PC, at one point, was by and large the most powerful hardware most consumers could buy. Development teams working on PC only games usually leveraged that to make games prettier AND more mechanically complex. However, around the time of the PS2 and Xbox more money was made selling your games on consoles. A lot of people didn't, and to a degree still don't, like the complexity of speccing a PC, and consoles were starting to get games that looked pretty enough in comparison to PC games. So people bought a console rather than a gaming PC. This really took off around the time of the PS3 and Xbox 360. Interestingly, it wasn't really the CPU that contained console games at that time, but RAM. The consoles had a really, REALLY low amount of memory because it was relatively expensive at that time and that constant is what led to a lot of games being pared down. By the time the PS4 and Xbox One came around prices of RAM dropped a lot, and the move toward an architecture that more closely resembled a traditional PC let developers make the more expensive creations they wanted. The PS3 only had 512 Mb! And it cost over $600 at release! It's kind of amazing that the PS3 was able to pull off a lot of the games at the time with such little memory headroom to maneuver. Now that the PS5 and Xbox Series X are out, and are basically nearly indistinguishable from a regular PC, it'll be interesting to see what the industry can do.

Thats not it, they said that they would give Obsidian more money to fix parts of FNV if they got a 85, they wont let other studios work on fallout because they say that the studio is big enough to develop fallout on their own

you didn't have to sacrifice yourself though... there were multiple endings. I agree however that Fawkes should have been an option.

You had to sacrifice yourself or sacrifice Lyons. The ending was literally so indefensible that the devs actually retconned it with DLC, allowing you to either do the obvious and send fawkes (or one of the new dlc npcs in instead) or just survive going in yourself (somehow).

There were actually at least 3 companions in the original game that could have done it without hurting themselves. Fawkes is a supermutant. Sergeant RL-3 is a robot. Charon is a ghoul. All 3 immune to radiation. Also, Clover is a slave companion for evil characters who is brainwashed to basically be in love with whoever owns her, an evil character should be able to order her to sacrifice herself instead. The fact that fully half of the companions in the game don't make sense with the ending they foisted on the player in the original conclusion of the game is just one of many, many pieces of evidence in the case for Bethesda's writers being literally retarded.

MATN's Jon made a fantastic argument that the ending of F3 is just stupid. Essentially it went that: Liam Neeson wanted to give clean water to everyone. The Enclave want to give free water to everyone. Only one of those two actually had the ability to distribute, so why do you kill tbe Enclave and sacrifice yoursrlf to bring clean water to everyone? Because the Brotherhood want you to, as it would be a kick to the Enclave.

The enclave wanted to kill every being that has been irradiated by poisoning the water supply, wich obviously includes every human beeing living in the capital wasteland.

fallout 3 was less buggy until the game of the year edition came out, fallout new vegas was the opposite being buggier than fallout 3 until the ultimate edition came out

You must have bought it at least half a year after release then..

Taytay Stark me too

fallout 3 on ps3 was the most buggy version too. i forced myself through it and got pretty much every trophy because i loved it but my god it crashed every hour and sometimes every 10 minutes . im glad i got a gaming PC. lol

Yeah fallout 3 was so buggy Bethesda even made a gag character clipping in the ground. lol

you're forgetting we're all living in a period where even your left toenail has rights and can be offended by what you say. Controversial topics such as slavery, prostitution, etc. from the previous games would not have flown past the "Im-offended" brigade. Hopefully fallout 5 or maybe Obsidian can release something that is not rainbow colored.

Responses: Yes No (Yes) Sarcastic (Yes) What?

I downloaded abduction and slavery mod right after installation of fallout 4. :D

Welcome to the club. :)

both fallout 3 and 4 are garbage fallout games.

same here

pulls a chare besides ya! ya want sum muntch & stuff?

azza preatee new fan, grabz irradiated beverage, imma enjoi lernin more!

Mathmachine same even for newbies like me

retro kid 64 retro kid more like retro trash

Clandestine Internet Guy NEE-Clee-Er.

NEE-Clee-Er???? or...... New-Clear...

Thanks for this comment, gonna skip watching this video since "nuclear" has to be in it a lot

Some people pronounce some words differently man calm down. Give Lockstin a break man

New Clear

I think mispronouncing the name of one of the greatest game studios in the history was worse... Troika, not Trokya. :d

I was wondering how many times he was going to make this glaring mistake... nucular is not a word!

Chief it's new clear

FUT-UREEEEE FUTUREEEEEE!

nailed it, know the feeling about wanting to forget it.

I feel you with the rediscover thing. Played it inside-out, so even if I take years and years of break, still can remember most things. Which is clearly a sign of how awesome it is, really.

spidermann5000 The story is pretty damn dark

spidermann5000 yeah. Because having your child stolen wife killed right in front of you isnt dark enough. Because a vault doomed to be poisoned for generations isn't dark enough. How many fallout fans does it take to screw in a lightbulb 1 to screw it in another one to complain it isnt dark enough.

Bryson Chatman Fallout 4 still doesn’t have a dark atmosphere. Deaths are casual as hell and it seems like characters don’t even care due to the god awful voice acting and facial animations.

This guy never understood what Fallout 1 and 2 were all about.

Sachi Preston Garvey: " WERE COLORFUL CHARACTERS TOO! ANOTHER SETTLEMENT NEEDS YOUR HELP! SEE WERE INTERESTING TOO!!"

Preston Garvey is a more annoying version of Lucas Simms MacCready is a less annoying version of himself Father looks a lot like the father from Fallout 3. Tunnel Snakes were turned into the Atom Cats the quest to find your father is replaced with a quest to find your son and everyone calls him Father. Yeah bethesda made a mess out of Fallout 4

>using meme arrows Go back /v/ermin

>meme arrows k

huh... welp, this is some good heresy, ill give this document a 8.4/10

Yo Mammy

Great doc. BUT PLEASE USE YOUR REAL VOICE

Jacob L Um Lockstin did it. Did you not read the comment.

What do you want a cookie

It is a simulator of a perversion of self in a crisis....

and 46 seconds

Jacob Carter The intro was literally 46 seconds long.

***** oh

no, the intro is about 44 seconds long

Thanks! It certainly took a lot of effort and months to make but it's finally here.

Maybe it's a metaphor for Fallout itself

To be honest, the opening is kind of boring. He gives us a crash course on the Cold War and how vacuum tubes work, but we really don't need any of that to understand Fallout. It's not what we came to see. Honestly, this is my second time watching this video. The first time, I actually turned it off because he took so long to get to what I came to see: A documentary about Fallout!

Also, he doesn't seem to understand the basic premise of Fallout or doesn't explain it well. The Fallout Universe being an alternate universe that diverges from ours sometime after WW2, it being the Future imagined in the 40's and 50's.

It's not about the views, It's about the experience. This guy loves Fallout enough to make a documentary and that alone should speak to more people than simple views. Hell I guarantee people from Bethesda, Black Isle, Interplay and Obsidian have watched this, and I hope they felt moved to know that this guy actually put time in to do this. Plus in many regards, this guy is now a documentary maker and can call himself that.

Cause he says bullshit.

Valtharr VERY LIGHT RPG elements mind you. Especially with Fallout 4...

Bro did you even play New Vegas? That game is full of RPG elements.

KoDan that's because Bethesda didn't make new Vegas, a talented studio did. Bethesda isn't capable of making something as good as new Vegas. obsidian had 18 months to make nv and after 7 years all Bethesda has to show for themselves is fallout 4. pathetic.

irllcd13 they had all Bethesda's assist, engine, props etc etc, the longest and hardest part of game development was done for them, please please climb out of Obsidians ass, the games was good, great even, but that level of fan boy-ism is just sad, it wouldn't have existed without Bethesda, and its obvious a games spin off made after the main game would have added features, nv is like a glorified Mod for fallout3

irllcd13 also, you seem to assume the 7 years before fallout4s release was 7 years of full on development, it wasn't, they were working on and with other things, if you don't like Bethesda, fine, but fallout wouldn't exist today without Bethesda, nor would NV exist without fallout3

Not 4, With the exception of graphics

And right below me you can see the destroyers of optimism. I agree with you scooby, each game has elements people enjoy.

Fallout 4 isn't bad, it may not go down as the best ever, but it introduces the series to alot of new players and new fans. And because of that, people get interested and wanna play the first two.

Fallout 3 poisoned the rpg genre.i only enjoyed it as a kid 1 2 and newvegas are for adults and games that intellectually for adults don't sell

4 did well combat, look, world space, companion, weapon modification, mechanic, survival mode, and mod support wise.

Well this is my video so Lockstin didn't have to do any of the editing or writing like his massive Pokemon project. Its 6 short videos combined into this one large documentary as is the fate of any series we cover over on my channel like Fire Emblem or Tales. Fallout 4: Nuka World is also releasing today so we felt it was the perfect time to release it to ride the hype wave.

The new RU-vid system pretty much demands long videos

My comment above but yes. True, true.

I did not see the comment when I wrote mine, sorry

Mike Fluff No worries my friend.

I just finished Fallout BoS for PS2. It was acceptable too.

Listen, I’ve heard people say the first step is admitting it, so please admit: “Fallout Tactics was a fuckup”

Victor Gan I agree, its comes off like the series was better off with Bethesda then Interplay/Black Isle studios. Even though f1 & 2 had much better gameplay and story telling. Bethesda's Fallout has the look not the feel. The resesrch put in for this documentary comes off lazy, we all know F3 so called "choices" are half ass compared to the originals.

To be fair, they did save the franchise from oblivion. I personally don't think I would have even known Fallout existed if not for Bethesda, so I am in fact quite grateful to them.

Victor Gan I'm a competitive FPS gamer, previously Halo and now Destiny 1/2, and I've never played a Fallout game, so I found this video and watched it in its entirety... From a neutral standpoint he didn't really take any sides. Just sounds like one company screwed the pooch with poor business models and workplace ethics while one company took over and saved the franchise.

KeepThoseEyesOpen Not only that, it fails to mention that a lot of the bugs NV had fallout 3 also had. But with NV its a bit more understandable. I had no idea it only had a year of development time compared to 4 years that F3 got. Hell, I had no idea F3 got 4 years. With how crappy the game looked and ran, i thought it was developed in a year. TBH i despise bethesda, and learning this made me despise them even more.

I honestly prefer Bethesda version better, but I think that is because I played Skyrim first.
