As janky as it is, I can still appreciate that the developers over at Bethesda managed to get the message across that the Institute is 3D printing human clones, basically. And I would assume the reason they didn't make it all look like a true to life representation of a sterile lab environment is simply because they wanted the Institute to look more aesthetically pleasing than the blank sheet of paper theme.
@@WyvernApalis No clue honestly but think about it. Woman has baby organs shift to make room. Baby born organs move back to where they were. Works same with c sections and abdominal surgery.
@@geminiarch3972 Wow your dad had a very rare occurrence happen. You should really go ask a doctor before you tell me what I'm saying Is wrong. You really think they can magically set your intestinal track (wich is literally 100s of feet long) back in the perfect place in your gut? You're not just ignorant if you think they can You're a fool. Ever watched a c section? I have. 3 times now. They quite literally just shove it all back in. That's why you have to poop before they let you leave afterwards to make sure it's all going how it should. Don't talk about things you don't know anything about.
My best guess is that the disk the synth is on is a type of template/ computer. And the giant needles are actually pumping human stem cells into the template, and where ever on the template these cells go, they begin replicating whatever organ is there at a rapid rate. Cells created by Shawn's DNA.
more importantly: they're FEV modified cells acting as stem cells. The template is being pumped full of stuff that's in the general ball park of a significantly refined and intentionally produced version of what The Master was made of in the original Fallout
Yeah I guess that makes some sense. I think most of the needles are just kinda pumping in the fake blood and inflating the organs. Additionally the reason the skin applying liquid is so hot is to kill any leftover nanomachines. Because you don’t want someone stepping into a pair of lungs on ground. There is also a possibility that the underwear is added because a completely naked person is slightly distracting at the best of times, so some high quality stainless underwear is made by some machines that exist in the water that do there thing by following an pattern made by some hydrophobic chemical created in the process when doing there junk.
In a way tho. We're all a collection of nano machines. Have you ever seen those videos of what it looks like on a nano level while cells replicate? It's crazy shit. Kinda stuff you see on high doses of psilocybin or DMT.
_Synth arrives in processing_ Institute Scientist: "Welcome to processing take a number to see your designated role." Synth: "I got 420, does that mean I test weed?" Scientist: "It means we set you on fire to make sure gen 3s are as fireproof as they should be." Synth: "Oh my god. Wait, how fireproof should a gen 3 be?" Scientist: "Zero percent, now, try not to run around too much, you might set off the sprinklers."
When I first saw the Institute underground I spent maybe 5 minutes or so just watching the Synth creation process. It’s both mesmerising and absolutely spooky.
Isn't every synth based on Father's DNA? One might assume that a new synth crawls out of the skin-soup vat looking like Father and is then adjusted so the the Institute doesn't repeat the truly terrifying story of Gary.
techincly their Clones of father not identical clones but biologicly Similar, they simply Splice his DNA to male and female and genenticly change it making mixes with anothers genes to help mix thing up a bit.
More like asexually produced offspring that's been generically modified to be their own individual. Father's relatively healthy. They don't exactly replicate his genes but use them to ensure that a synth has a healthy "birth" so to speak. That's what my head canon at least tells me.@Nobody-zl3kk
The "cartilage eyelids" are there to prevent rapid eye movement during shock therapy, the lids dissolve during the skin bath. The synth component is teleported in upon death, that is why some (most) synths don't have one.
the Synth component is likely build into the skull bone that why we Don't see how it added, it also make sens since the Institute would need a way to access the brain and add the Memory part of the Synth.
Mod Idea for FO4: add a side quest where a synth, during the creation process, had some sort of technical issue in the epidermal suffusion station and experiences some kind of Captain Crunch 'Oops! All underwear!' situation where all his skin was made of underwear. After being secretly tossed out of the institute to save some technicians job, you can find him in the glowing sea next to a bunch of blood bugs that he is impervious to because he has underwear where skin should be. Pretty much, he's begging that you take him back to the institute so they can fix him and you can either agree to it or agree to it sarcastically. From there, he can basically fix some of the issues with the vanilla quest line by offloading some of the plot load/subsidizing the options surrounding Kellog, the Lone Survivor, Father, and Virgil throughout various quests. He just pops up in all the choices surrounding the institute's questline from the point in which you return him/meet him. Instead of needing Kellog's brain and a courser chip to reach the institute for the first time, you can simply ask him for directions and piggy-back ride him as he teleports into the institute (during his mishap in the epidermal suffusion process he gained several superpowers including teleportation and the ability to breathe fire). The Lone Survivor can enlist him to perform certain tasks including side quests as they gain more power within the institute or they can appoint him leader after father dies, giving the player character more options for that important plot point. He can also serve as a desperately needed second institute companion (or just have him teach X6-88 how to be cool/threaten him into being cooler with the Lone Survivor) but can also be considered as a Brother Hood of Steel companion if you pass a couple speech and science checks with Elder Maxson and Proctor Quinlan where you convince them to use them as they used Danse as he has superpowers and underwear skin. I'm sure there's other uses for this character but this would mesh in perfectly with the lore as this video shows that the conditions that synths are made in are naturally prone to mishaps and shit. All I ask is that if you use this idea to create anything you incorporate the name 'Calvin' in reference to the famous underwear brand.
>gained several superpowers including teleportation and the ability to breathe fire). and at the end of the story his teleportation goes out of control and turns him inside out, sending him to another universe. there he reforms as a mighty dragon named alduin, the destroyer of worlds.
Only problem I had with this is: out of what this underwear is made of, since blood bugs are just oversized mosquitoes and those can bite human through clothes. Well, at least those mosquitoes we have in Europe. I know that, since them bastards had punch me through both, 100% cotton t-shirts and 50/50 mixture of cotton and polyester. This gem "you can agree or agree sarcastically" deserves some kind of award!
synths actually don't seem to get sick like humans do. their bodies aren't biological- at least from what I remember so take this with a grain of salt haha but a big thing i use to back this up is that if you take the permanent debuff of the mole rat disease in vault 81, you and your companion will both usually get the same debuff after any sort of attack by a mole rat there. however, if you take nick here he does not receive the same debuff. also I could have sworn they mentioned something about synths and not getting sick during dialogue with Kellogg, but I also am not sure of this
My head-canon about the creation process: 1) The bones are made of an advanced material that fuses together upon being introduced to electric charges, that's why they can put some partial bones there. The big tube injects stem-cells that are preprogrammed to grow into the cardio-vascular system and the 4 smaller tubes have some kind of growth-stimulator. My assumption as to the mechanical components is that they are grafted onto the bones to make sure they stay in place. 2) As with the previous step, the tube and needles in the back inject growth stimulators for the stem cells that are preprogrammed to grow into the various organs. Similarily, the arms at the front apply the muscle tissue in the same way, with growth-stimulated stem-cells. Why all the stem-cells? Well, remember that they needed a living, unaltered and unmutated tissue sample to get the Synth-process started? The tissue sample that Shaun provided once he was kidnapped? There are many entries that point to this. Oh, on the note of the eyelids, the synth eyelids are muscles because unlike us humans, they failed to make the synth eyelids function like human eyelids sot hey just made muscled-eyelids that open and close on their own. Yes, even they have a limit. 3) Neuroelectrical means the electricity household of the brain, means by this time, the synth has a brain, so it must've been grown in either of the first two steps (personal assumption: along with the cardiovascular system). This time, the tube in the back injects the synthetic blood (which is why we see the body start to get reddish now and not prior), while the frontal arms just dispense electric shocks to get the various systems to start working. I blame bad real-life programming and graphics-engine hiccups for the fact that the needles, tubes and whatnot seem to stab through the body. Again, my headcanon says it doesn't, becaue otherwise they'd really just destroy a carefully assembled synthetic body. 4) As the body is gettings its skin melted onto, the Synth becomes self-aware, conscious, and rises up, getting out of that suffusion-bath. It's not actual skin-broth (otherwise the synth would grow skin everywhere the fluid goes, and aww hell naw if he accidentially drank a gulp), it's a nother growth-stimulant. Basically the super-stimulant, the motherlode. It causes the skin to grow on the body, the hair-follicles to activate, likely also the nails to begin growing. It is the synthetic equivalent tot he aging-enzyme that we biological humans posses that make us age. Now how this broth also knits some undies, don't ask me, that's beyond even my level of bullsh*t explaning. And yes, it is the androgynous base-model that then gets processed to become male or female, old or young, thin or fat, or whatever, at some other location.
A thought; while impractical, and we don't actually see it, there could be a mechanism that slides underwear onto the body Wallace and Grommet style so it has something covering the delicates as the synth gets up. Would probably be more practical to clothe the synth later, but maybe they had a Dr. Dala type issue and they figured it better to cut that out entirely
I reckon that the organs being 'inflated' are not so much entire organs being squeezed through pipes, but individual cells being pushed through pipes, that have mechanical 'memory', like spring steel. Working with the wire frame the body is built on, these cells all know exactly where they need to go, and click together in place, like lego with ultra fast healing properties. Thanks for the vid
Apparently this happens with the intestines. If a surgeon perfoms a operation in your intestines, it dosn't really matter if they are in the rigth place or not, intestines themselves will find the correct position
@@girrig97 Yeah. That FEV part is important. The template is being pumped full of stuff that's in the general ball park of a significantly refined, intentionally produced, and guided version of what The Master was made of in the original Fallout
A Gen3 Synth is no more a robot than you or I. The game states repeatedly that they're indistinguishable from humans other than the ubiquitous "synth component" which isn't even detectable by conventional scans. They're flesh and blood and bone, made with engineered DNA sourced from Shaun. What they really are is human clones with neural implants to attempt to control them and give them enhanced processing and interface. They aren't made of metal, plastic, gears, servos or hydraulics. The institute isn't making robots. They're making people.
@@liwojenkins - That's why I side with the Railroad. The Institute is manufacturing human beings, then enslaving them by treating them as machines and using mind control tech in their brain augment chips. The Railroad also has a neutral disposition toward the Minutemen, so the slaves get freed and two factions survive in the end.
If im correct - Gen 3 uses FEV. So believe that the Red Vats/Bubble Bath substance is a FEV strain that is used to "3D" print the Synths and graph the skin on.
Did anyone notice how similar this production line is to the intro of Westworld? And now the creators of Westworld are working on a Fallout show. They must be big fans!
It's also a weird coincidence that the code for Fallout: Shelter was in Westworld's own mobile game, which they got sued over. Although that was the fault of a 3rd party making the game IIRC.
Well... Our show is cancelled, but we have all of these synthetic people parts in this set. Anybody play Fallout 4 on the crew? Just got an idea for the next one!
Most of what the game tells us does indicate that, it's just the institute and brotherhood that insist they're "a machine". I mean, we literally have Curie, who may well be the most medically qualified person in the commonwealth, agreeing that a synth body is a human one, and her dialog all speaks to how radically different being a synth is from being a robot. Hell, some trappers in Far Harbor even eat one, showing they're clearly made of biological tissue. As far as I can tell the only mechanical part is the synth component, which is probably just a compact version of memory lounger technology that allows them to "program" synths with new memories and directives.
About the skeletal pieces. You're born with 270 bones or so, and by adulthood you have about 206 from fusing/hardening. The skull is a few of those, to help in birthing. Related story, my dad used to tell me they used some sort of plunger thingy to get me out, so I came out looking like a Conehead according to him. My head is normal shaped now BTW
Even if it's kind of nonsensical, I love the fact Bethesda lets us see this process and the level of detail involved in it. Is it completely absurd? Absolutely. Is it cool to look at? Also very much yes.
Ah the Institute. I have a theory that Bethesda got awfully confused about the Institute and its methods and motives. Think about it. The motto is “Mankind Redefined” and they constantly work to improve the Synth beyond human limits and the robotics personnel go on and on about how great it would be if they could push beyond human limitations, for example go without sleep. They seem to think that it’s better to be a Synth as if downloading into one is a great thing. And yet as a whole the Institute treats them as machines-as robots to mop the floors and do simple menial tasks and stubbornly refuse to see they could be more. Shaun refuses to allow synthetic implants that perhaps could have saved his life or led to saving his life. I find myself wondering what the purpose of the Synths actually was. They don’t seem to want to become immortal Synths and if they wanted efficient menial labour they perfected that with the Gen2s. Mind you we’re never told why they replace people except in the obvious cases of McDonnough and Warwick. Nothing about that is explained. Just like we don’t get the challenge Shaun on the FEV lab even after we find it and rummage through it. And why they bother abducting Shaun when they could just ask Vault 81 or wake the Vault 111 residents and ask or trade for DNA samples. And then there’s the notion they’re all clones or closely related to Shaun. Aside from the creepiness of romancing Danse and Curie as genetic children or grandchildren, the thought of fertile Synths is entirely icky.
i think what the thin layer underneath everything is is a sythetic material that could pass as organ lining, thats then filled. thats why the template is used at all rather than just starting with bones
i always kind of though of the gen 3s as just clones since they're just meat. only robotic part is the brain thingy that is used to tell them apart form people (probably also messing with their brains, maybe to control them). i kind of think they call them robots to maybe not think of them as people even tho they are a lot closer to a person than a robot.
They're functionally a clone but they're assembled like a robot, but the process of assembly like that is so far beyond our technological understanding.
I have something to note about synths drowning in the 'skin vat'! It doesn't really matter how much programming is in their brains at this point. Early infants are capable of holding their breath and even swimming without any training. It's part of 'the mammalian dive reflex'. These synths are capable of full locomotion and even speech shortly after leaving the pool, so I imagine they're pretty far along in their psychological development. Imprinting memories onto someone is not very hard. If you were so inclined, you could drop someone in a life they never lived, and they'd do just fine at blending in. We are insanely susceptible to suggestion if there's enough evidence that we should, and always have behaved in a certain way. I wish the developers explored deeper into the imprinting process and the psychology around it. I'd love to hear about earlier synths who failed to 'fit in' and either were exposed as fakes or just had a mental breakdown, thinking they're insane.
My theory regarding how different synth body types exist is that they actually just use that one body pane but the fine tuning takes place in that processing room. Such to quote myself “fine tuning” includes bodily modifications, personality modifications, memory modifications, and if necessary modifications to the Biological Sex of the Synthetic Hominid. I believe this is possible due to the possibility that while you were chilling in the freezer the institute may have retrieved samples of Nora’s (The Female Player Character Template’s) Bone Marrow and Gametes. My belief in this theory stems from the fact the institute has been shown to have the technology that could allow one half of the chromosomal count to be replaced with another and then apply this accordingly to a biological organism synthetic or not.
4:00 it’s specifically stated in a terminal in I think robotics that that synths all have the same body type and that McDonough’a body type was custom made to imitate the original down to a medical condition the original had apparently. So they have the capacity to make other body types but don’t EDIT: the terminal is in the SRB and states this “I've spoken with Ayo, and we both agree - if the situation does become untenable, reclamation seems unfeasible. M7-62 was specifically engineered to mimic the actual human McDonough. As such, the unit's synthetic biology is that of someone overweight and grossly out of shape. A mem wipe would kill any psychological weaknesses attributed to self-perceived old age, but that body? Lost cause.” Was wrong about the special model but still they do have the frames for different body types
12:33 should have been the Thumb-nail! Stellar work, RadKing! (Your off-the-cuff improv comedy riffing reminds me of the irreverent way MossBag the Hollow Knight-guy makes his videos. I really dig it!)
13:24 If that is the case, there seems to be severe limitations with 'refurbishing' synth bodies after they're produced. One of the reasons cited that a certain overweight synth infiltrator could not become a courser after his duty is fulfilled is the physical condition of the synth body.
When I did the quest with Harkness, I thought Synths' bodies were mechanical through-and-through, and they were just made to mimick organic human bodies. And from what Nick Valentine says about the Broken Mask Incident, then my thoughts would be well-supported, especially given that your average Wastelander can immediately tell if a dead body belongs to a synth or not just by cutting them open and seeing what's inside. Additionally, synths are immune to radiation damage, which wouldn'tbe the case with an organic being with DNA. So then, why are they making these synths seemingly entirely organic? I feel like this may be the result of miscommunication between the writers and the level designers.
Plus in far harbor a group of cannibals eat a synth and dr chambers in the covenant quest says a living synth is indistinguishable from a human, you need to cut the synth component from their head
The fact they had cartilage eyelids before the skin is created reminds me of how some skeleton cartoon characters can somehow blink (Sans, Grim from Billy and Mandy, Jack Skellington, etc)
I love your videos, CoA, and all things irradiated in Fallout 4. There is a very interesting and terrible true story about a man who had surgery with the wrong mix of anesthesia so he was actually awake but paralyzed during the process. The doctors, realizing their mistake, administered a drug that triggered short-term memory loss to cover it up. He didn't remember what happened, but later, his family would find him many times screaming and "hallucinating" something indescribable and terrifying. With the help of another doctor and a lawyer, the truth finally came out. Unfortunately the guy couldn't cope with the deep trauma of it all and took his life. I think that example shows the dangerous risks the synth creation process creates... Would be very interesting to see this theme reflected in a Fallout 4 mod.
I think its some kind of stem cell growth fueled and sped up by the institute fev that would make the most sense for how the organs know where to go and what to be
Well that’s why they need DNA, uncorrupted DNA that you can add bio modifications to such as fev etc. the body needs to know how to circulate and cycle itself so they take that from the human body I guess? Just info on where the blood is supposed to pump etc
I think the idea of the organs inflating is fine. The animators could just be using visual shorthand for a full set of series of molds and fluids injected in perfect sequence that fill out the molds and form the organs, instead of actual, full size organs being pushed through the injectors.
The only way this makes sense is if alot of "self aligning" of cells is going on. The robots are only the dispenser and the real magic happens at the microscopic level.
What about Nick Valentine? He stated that he was so defective they just straight up threw him away and somehow he just rebooted. There’s probably a synth graveyard somewhere but I’d imagine it’s hidden just like the institute lab to prevent anyone from finding out how Synths are actually made. Which makes sense why the Railroad considers them human and says they should be saved.
What if all the base model synths that head off to be processed look like Shawn at some point in his life, later they’ll be altered into a different male or female.
Would it make more sense to have like this massive assembly line for the gen 1 and 2 synths, like in attack of the clones with the battle droid factory.
when i first played the game thought was so stupid shows mass produced gen 3s when 1s and 2s are so so much more comman and made more sence as something that can be mass produced. 3s seemed like a make a few at a time not really factory like if understand what im saying
@@theinterestbox8608 I’m pretty sure the synth production room in fallout 4 is purely there so Bethesda could flex their graphical capabilities or something
It would have been neat if there was a version of the gen 3 synths that are like incomplete abominations, being similar to feral ghouls that have gone insane from years of being incomplete.
The weirdest thing that I found while playing the game was the child synth Showed no signature of life while i was using a special modification on my power armor to see such things everything else in the entire game has a life signature except for that specific child
Hey radking, just so you know there are some liquids that are able to be breathed while supplying you with oxygen, so the blood juice baptism might not be as much of a drowning hazard as you think
One of the things that I wonder is what is the synths immune system like and unless the institute puts a microbiota in the gut a simple irradiated flu would be fatal for a synth.
when it comes to the injectors it is possible that those that are injecting into the skeleton directly are injecting bone marrow cells, and possibly a cellular slurry with enough cells from each tissue type or stem cells to produce the organs that are not directly seen to be placed. That fact that most synths are male makes sense as if I remember correctly Shaun is the template for them, and it is likely that as you suggest there are multiple preset bases, likely two, one male and one female, as if melanin and other color indicating chemicals are produced naturally by the synth then all the institute scientists would have to do would be relatively trivial cosmetic surgeries on the body and increases/decreases in certain hormone productions for desired traits such as height, muscle mass/density, and breast size.
I have to wonder could the synthetic tissue integrate with an organic body? Could the process be used to construct a brand new arm around a stump? That is valuable technology even if the construction of full humanoid synthetic is considered unethical. It would be a shame if some faction of zealots just blew the place up...but who would do something so foolish like that?
That synth creation room... I lost count how many times that moving machinery donked me upside the head. My slapped together settlements have more hand rails and fencing then anything the Institute had.
I would assume that the spikes have all the chemicals and nutritions that are used in making a human. Spikes make me think they somehow coordinate the whole growth process. In a nutshell: A full grown body is grown in minutes using some kind of meat smoothie and the power of *science!*
when the synths memories are wiped by the srb they are injected with the spikes again. So they definitely have a hand in creating the brain and its functions
Oh you know, i know this has been done before in other IP but it's a missed opportunity on Bethesda's part not to just have all the synths in the institute share the same appearance, to really sell the artificialness of them, granted FO4 was real bad at showing the synths as something more than just "a human with a synth component".
"Sir, we have perfected the way to make synths. They are now pretty much indistinguishable from humans due to the synthetic skin technology we just invented." "Do they come with pants?" "W...what?" "When they come out of the vat, do they have underwear on?" "No, they're completely naked." "Unacceptable! Now, invent a way to use the synthetic skin to give them underwear." "Can't we just...put underwear on them afterwards?" "No! Skinpants!"
Probably a silly theory, but we know time isn't exactly 1:1 in Fallout when we're playing since a day can pass by in a hour or so of gameplay. So it could be that in universe the process takes longer than what we're seeing? Still pretty fast as far as human making goes but it's something. Also, anyone else wonder what the synth juice taste like or is that just me?
So is no one going to mention that he misread the neuroelectrical station as the neurological section and that the station is likely only there to add the sufficient electricity to give the synth life
I like to think that different sized dowels of synth bone material are produced in an outsourced factory, smuggled in by contracted couriers, and then carefully sculpted one at a time into the various bones on a bone-lathe by an overworked machinist in some hidden part of the institute.
Showing the skinless synth being dipped. Then rather than it growing skin, a new synth is spawned in. What if that liquid is meant to be the only step, well, the only one that we see. The skeleton being put together all for show. Like the drink Slurm in Futurama. The Slurm factory shows the drink being made ommiting the secret ingredient. So if one was to try and replicate it, the absence of this ingredient would prevent it from tasting like propper Slurm. In reality though, none of the ingredients were going into Slurm, Slurm was all just alien slug slime. Soo yeah, maybe the entire process takes place in that red pool. The skeletonm is just for show.
That's slavery 2.0. they are just cutting the middleman (a.k.a: mom and dad). What makes it even worst is: 1. Individual being stripped down of infancy. 2. Complete dehumanization of that life.
What I don't understand about the institute is, why go through all the trouble to make a clone in the most fancy way possible, then put a synth component in. Wouldn't it be easier to just capture, implant, then release? The whole cloning thing is cool but don't seem necessary.
Honestly with the skin soup process, I wouldn't be surprised if the length of time actually was one of the determining factors in a successful synth. They don't view them as living beings so a synth that drowns is just a failed robot, in their eyes nothing wrong has happened. No different than a toaster not heating or something
I just have to say thank you, RadKing. Thanks to you, Oxhorn, and others in this brilliant RU-vid community, I am now about to boot up Fallout for the first time. Wish I could start with the originals but not on PS4 at this time, so Fallout 3 it is! I usually play fighting games so this is out of my wheelhouse completely but I love the story so much, I gotta play it. Starting with 3, then New Vegas and 4 and if that all goes good '76, cuz, well, like Assassin's Creed which i also never played but will be, they're free on PS+ premium! Starting my adventure in the Wasteland today. I can't wait!
The gut goo could be a slurry of pre programmed stem cells with a stim pack for rapid growth. Imagine if the way to see if some one was synth was to pants them.
A quick bit of embryology: during embryonic development, different organs come from different layers of the embryo. The so-called entoderm is responsible for the digestive system and the lungs. The mesoderm is responsible for bones (probably only the marrow for synths, as the bones come premade), the musles and some other organs. Then, there is the exoderm. This layer is responsible for making the skin. It is also the layer which makes the nervous system. I think this might mean that the eyes and brain and such are formed when the synth is submerged in skin goob at the end of the manufacturing process, if the various kinds of goop are meant to be suspensions containing stem cells, as I suspect. Nevermind. I hadn't seen the part about the neurological station yet, and I did not remember it.
Set frame, stimpak frame, start auto functions, implant consciousness, dip in skin juice. The reason for the order is probably due to more robust materials the institute uses to make the synths more resistant to disease, rads, and physical damage. It also allows for customization of the created synth
as someone who works at simple assembly line for radios, I can say that even least vulnerable process there is like million times more secured from contamination there, and safety within moving machines and zones would make this whole spinning wheel robot putting synths together only into cleanroom and into glass box too, also is bit shame there are not used those cleanroom suits institute uses at times when in wasteland as asset is in game, and devs wanted that be so "immersive" to let you walk anound this machine and take bath in skin juice so they havent put it only into innacessible area behind glass to watch from rather far
1:23 The suit he's wearing is supposed to come with a hood, but apparently they gave him the suit-only version for some reason. Also if you thought the feet looked bad, I'm pretty sure the Fallout 3/NV Ghouls didn't have any toes and all and were just slabs of flesh. Look at Snowflake for instance.
It would be nice to see the survivor take some tools from the institute and use them. Like how useful would a cauterizer be in a gun fight. “Ah Im hit and bleeding. Let me use my stop bleeding tool” maybe for companions and it would act almost like a stimpak
