Fallout New Vegas - Tumblr Posts

[I'm stupid and I deleted the original post so I'm uploading it again]

[This is my main Tumblr, if you want Fallout stuff, illustrations, memes, photos & more you have my secondary Tumblr HERE]

The amount of times this guy jumpscared me with a cinematic kill is crazy

Thinking 'bout Craig

+ more under the cut

⚠️ wound tw there's no bandaid censor over the scope bite in the full version

wiki says he has green eyes but I've always thought of them as kinda hazel personally

2 of hearts in reference to his card with Manny and I used a screencap of Boone's Novac room as the background with higher saturation and darkness lowered because I just think about it sometimes idk

I really like his scoped hunting rifle being described as "a .308 caliber flaming sword of justice"

+ have this ncr first recon teddy png I made

My most personal HC for FNV is that Boone would've 100% been a girl dad. Like I cannot picture him having a son AT ALL. Like even in his letter to Carla, he talks about the chance of them having a daughter and doesn't even mention a son

He would be the type to show whoever's dating his daughter his guns to make sure she get's home by curfew. Even then, I'm sure after his time in the NCR, he'd be overall a really protective father. Like years of killing and suddenly he's responsible for the life of just an entirely defenseless sweetheart?? ~~Which, he would never admit it, but would soften him just a bit~~ and like. He just doesn't want his little girl to end up like some other girls he's seen during his round tour

Alright. It's time.

Are you a BIG IRON GIRLIE, a JINGLE JANGLE JINGLE JOKER, or an AIN'T THAT A KICK IN THE HEAD KID?

well what do i say..... i finished owb a couple of days ago and i fell in love with the characters there, especially with dr Dala as you can see :] i wanted to draw her when she was still a human and not a think tank(i love both tho xd) im still learning how to work with colors and lighting

War. War Never Changes.

You don't "play" a Bethesda game. You either install 400+ mods and then play it for ten hours and get bored, or you install 400+ mods and sink like 600 hours into it. Both of these then have a cooldown of between 6 - 12 months until you take either path again. I don't make the rules, that's just how it is.

Came across this video again (credit to @ triplicata on TikTok) and I have some things to say

First off I think what the best part about this video is that none of the endings in fallout new vegas are good LMAOAOAOA

like, ncr crumbles, legion crumbles, mr house crumbles, yes man/courier crumbles, like nothing works cause the game was LITERALLY rigged from the start

fnv is a really good example of exploring morality and ethics while still failing no matter what because humans as a species are untrustworthy selfish assholes who, sometimes given the circumstances, are just simply doomed

and I think that’s beautiful, rather than tragic

where I see a lot of games fail in trying to replicate this is that there’s a definite “good” option and a definite “bad” option and MAYBE some funny options here and there. but with fnv there’s nothing good that comes out of anything long term. sure running the strip with yes man is “good” but everyone’s doomed in the long term

the endings are sad, when you think about what happens, but the journey to get there is what matters most. because that exploration and that discovery of this intricate world of choices that lead up to your decision in the end. sure the story is doomed, but the choices you make have individual impacts that last for longer than the strip, which was indeed rigged form the start.

Frederick Sinclair is a really interesting foil to Mr. House. I mean you start digging into this and it's just parallel after parallel after parallel. Start at the high level. House sinks inordinate amounts of resources into saving the city of Las Vegas - not the people, but the city- from nuclear destruction; as long as the stage endures, he can get anyone to wear the costumes. Sinclair sets up an entirely new "community" totally off-the-grid for the sake of protecting one woman, plasters that place with her likeness. House is a visionary with a 200-year action plan to rebuild society in his image, bootstrap space exploration, and construct an interplanetary empire; Sinclair sank everything he had into building the most secure facility possible for a woman who he knew was terminally ill anyway, just to ensure that her last few years lived in the aftermath of the nuclear apocalypse would be as comfortable as possible- there's a fundamental pessimism baked into what he was doing. Both House and Sinclair relied heavily on automated defensive systems and cutting-edge, esoteric technologies to accomplish their ends, but House built his power base on proprietary robotics and computing technology, much of which he personally designed- an outgrowth of his policy of never widening his circle any more than he absolutely has to. Sinclair, in his naive techno-optimism, outsourced his utopia, grabbing flashy third-party technologies like a kid in a candy store- opening a backdoor for the Think Tank to poison his city and ultimately getting everyone at the Gala Event killed when the holograms malfunctioned and went berserk.

Their management styles are inverse. House allows countless abuses to occur under his aegis because he subscribes to a libertarian-when-convenient philosophy where he doesn't much care what the little people do as long as he gets his cut and they don't rock the boat too much- a hands-off approach that fosters resentment amongst his subordinates, lets the White Gloves and Omertas get up to untold levels of fuckery while Freeside languishes and Benny conspires against him. Sinclair, by contrast, had a sincerely-held utopian-straight-edge safety-first micromanagement approach built into the very bones of the casino, he appeared to genuinely give a shit about the safety of the construction crew on the villa, and he was well-liked by nearly everyone who had any direct contact with him- and yet untold horrors also went down under his aegis, because his myopic focus on building the vault for Vera let Dean Domino and the Think Tank run circles around him, good intentions be damned. Their respective interpersonal dispassion and obsession are on display in how they react to betrayal. House's tone never rises above exasperation when it comes time to clean house of Benny, the Omerta Leadership and the White gloves; he treats them as problems to be solved, gears that are slightly out of alignment; By contrast, when Sinclair learns that Dean and Vera have been playing him, he channels the monomaniacal energy he previously directed towards protecting Vera towards the goal of building the perfect poetic-ironic death trap for her and Dean.

There are some other parallels in their personal lives. For one thing they both trusted a pastiche of a 40s lounge singer a lot more than they should have. They both tried to digitize, immortalize their girlfriends- and the discrepancy in how they went about it is telling. House's recreation of Jane isn't terribly robust, and in terms of House's overall project she's an afterthought. She's more a sock-puppet than a person, a sanded-down copy of a woman who died forever-and-a-half ago, forever agreeable, never saying no. Convenient. Only the most superficial visual elements preserved- an illustration of her face on a robotic chassis. Sinclair was obsessive in recreating Vera, preserving her likeness. It's all over the villa, her hologram is everywhere, her voice is everywhere. The terminal in the lightwave lab in Old World Blues reveals that he was still obsessed with getting her hologram right even after the love curdled into hate. All of it a monument to the real woman, and yet in all of it the real woman is still lost, buried under the mythologized projection. He didn't respect the real person enough to let her know that she was dying. A total failure of preservation from the opposite direction. (Except in the suites, where you can hear her very authentic dying pleas.)

You find both of them in their basements. House only looks a little better than Sinclair, but he's got much more of a voice in the narrative. He took steps to make sure he'd be around to tell you what he thinks about everything, fine-tuned the voice with which he speaks to the world, the face he presents. It matters to him that he gets to tell his own story. We find out a lot about House, from House; but for the kind of figure that he is, a shocking amount of what we learn about Sinclair comes from other people, people who knew him or wrote about him. The only image of him you can find is a downplayed element of a larger mosaic. The two documents you find that're written from his perspective have been buried for 200 years, and they're yards from his corpse. And the more recent of the two is an apology. I mean admittedly at the point where he wrote that apology Sinclair was personally turbofucked regardless. If the cloud didn't get him the holograms would have, or the radiation, or, or, or. You can read some level of ego into what he did in the face of that. But however futile it was, he died in the specific way that he did because he recognized that he'd done something awful, and he was trying everything he could think of to correct it. Somehow I find it very hard to imagine House doing either of those things- admitting fault or putting skin of his own in the game to make it right.

quackity x fallout new vegas because. uhm. uh. uhhhh

posted on twitter too!

people complaining abt the fallout tv show are kinda boring. like its fun, its getting my friends into fallout, it has a cast of three badass bisexuals (100% canon) in the wasteland. it doesn't retcon anything. tim cain told yall to calm down and enjoy it. peace :)

it’s safe to say that Fallout New Vegas has genuinely consumed my entire being at this point.

My history teacher’ll be like “the roman’s would try to recruit you or just burn your entire village down” and i’m like “JUST LIKE NIPTON”

Fallout:New Vegas

No bitches? Hahahahahahhahaha lol :') (old draw)

I fucked Benny and chocked him to death with my thighs without regret. What I do regret is seducing him in front of Veronica, with her in frame behind him just looking at me as I talked about my pussy

If the Courier ever appears in the fallout show (Personally I would prefer if protagonists were excluded or only mentioned) I think they should be allowed to have a bit of an ego.
