@@yodathemassshooter5161 Its in on one of the dialog... where the Sole Survivor will say to Jack "So you're alive before the war?" And Jack will respond "I think you are too" Sole survivor "howd you know" Jack "Speech patterns".. Etc...
When your character asked about the expedition being 200 years ago and saying that's impossible despite being from 200 years ago. I wonder if this was written before the cryogenic vault idea came up.
***** There weren't but I was more going on the fact the character doesn't think anyone could be alive from before the war despite the character being alive from before the war.
+TroopperFoFo Maybe the game assumes that your char realizes that the vaults were almost all unique, and as such, as nobody escaped 111, he assumed that there was no other way.
Cameron McAllister Like I said I am not going on the fact that the character was cryogenically frozen.. I am going on the point at which he says it is impossible for someone to be alive from that time. Despite him being from that time. Which is also why I think this quest was written before the cryovault idea was made. Another reason is the character also makes no mention that he was a live at that time like so many other quest where he mentions it. In most portions of dialog your character mentions he was from 200 years ago.
+TroopperFoFo to be honest I thought his father was just a ghoul at first, I was confused that my character thought it was impossible. I would understand if he asked how or maybe was just a bit skeptical, but he acted like there was no way possible even though he himself is over 200 years old and there is countless ghouls who are also over 200 years old.
It's not as bad as New Vegas in my opinion. The main story in NV sucked ass but the story running through all the DLC for New Vegas was amazing and way better then the main game.
@@lordlossize EVERY BETHESDA ERA FALLOUT HAS THE SAME STORY Even fo1 and fo2 i believe ( even though i never played them) has the same story Find *insert object or person*
thenthapple I'm currently reading all of Lovecraft's stories. That's why it's fresh in my mind. If you're that interested, you could buy Lovecraft's entire work at Barnes & Noble for only $20--if the store exists in Ireland.
I think it's a nice little niche when Bethesda sneaks in lovecraftian references. Possibly a precursor to a dlc? *Definitely* in the style of the shadow out of time
+Blu Spy with how nice the underwater parts look now they could totally do a sunken city in a R'lyeh theme and add sanity as a new survival feature cant do a Lovecraft game with out a sanity meter, its the rules
I sided with Jack and his family, mostly under the impression that they tried to cure Lorenzo of his insanity. In one attempt I helped Jack kill him with Zeta, but felt a bit bad about doing it so cowardly. I tried again and instead released him, refusing to help him kill his family. I aided them in killing Lorenzo back at the house, saving Jack, his family, as well as Edward. Seeing how Lorenzo was under the influence of an alien artifact, I found it fitting to have him killed with an alien ray gun.
Am I the only one that tries to not fall asleep while these videos? I'm not at all saying these vids are boring. I think it's your voice that does it. XD
Fallout 4 is riddled with these references to precursor beings and the supernatural, and they're all reminiscent of one another and clearly inspired by Lovecraft. It's no secret that Bethesda really admired Lovecraft, but the amount of references in this game alone is starting to suggest that they might not be mere references after all. I wonder where all of this goes...
Hopefully the next game there'll be DLC about it. Don't see why they haven't done it yet aside from Point lookout, a DLC based around the Lovecraft based stuff would be killer
The fun thing is most people think lovecraft wrote horror. He didn't he wrote scifi. The old ones were beings from another dimension and the elder gods were aliens that colonized earth. Even the magic in his stories is based around what was known about quantum mechanics in his time.
I did the Cabot sidequest yesterday and was sorely disappointed in his literature. With the people at Bethesda obviously liking Poe, Lovekraft, etc. and the Cabots being so old; I had hoped to see things such as Tolstoj's War and Peace, Poe's works, Remarque, Hemingway, Homer, Vergil, Cicero, Caesar, Montesqiu, Foacault, etc on his bookshelf. But alas; all it says is "Author Name - Book Title" or some such nonsense. Made me sad.
i love how most fallout games have almost verbatim lines from lovecraft stories, like the line about "strange geometries, tools not made for human hands, and carvings that hint at strange dimensions beyond our understanding" is used in multiple stories from nyarlathotep and his lost city in egypt to call of cthulhu and the stone icon.
this is one my my favorite fallout 4 videos from Thenthapple. the ideological theories that spring into my mind is a very lovely thing to dwell on from this quest. and thenthapples' narration tops anybody else that could dream of producing.
24:46 - 26:35+ = The city in Arabia is obviously "Iram - the City of Pillars", as per the H.P. Lovecraft story. The great temple is described as containing artifacts not made by human hands (Reptilian). "The Nameless City" is a horror story written by H. P. Lovecraft in January 1921 -The protagonist of "The Nameless City" states: It was of this place that Abdul Alhazred the mad poet [author of the Necronomicon] dreamed on the night before he sang his unexplainable couplet: (First used & repeated) "That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die."
One thing that always irked me about the game was that you couldn't use the serum to save Shaun at the end. I think that should have been an option at the end.
+elfarlaur It implies that it does, it says that the serum cures imperfections in the body. Wouldn't cancer count as a sort of imperfection that it would cure?
Hmmm, close to half a century? I believe you misspoke, 400 years is closer to half a Millennium. Nevertheless, great video and keep up the amazing work!
Sooooo.......what happens if you stick Edward the Ghoul with the immortal serum? Does it completely cure him and revert him back to his pre-war human form? Or would it kill him? Why didn't Jack think to let Edward touch the serum AFTER the bombs fell when he was diagnosed with rad poisoning? So many plot holes Beth left us here. Excellent work on this intriuging bit of lore thenthapple. Thank you for uploading this!! :)
This is my first Fallout game I have purchased but I've always watched your videos on Fallout. It's really awesome to be able to experience it myself and then watch what others thought. Anyways, what I'm trying to say is I love Fallout, and I love your videos. So keep it up!
I find it ironic that a man like Jack Cabot would believe in something he knows very little about, and yet mention actual aliens and he talks as if its nonsense, when in fact theres more proof to that than his. I wish that if you encounter the alien ship crash before meeting Jack you could call him out on it and show him the blaster.
In the line when Jack said "No, I've answered my own question" The camera wierded out and for that one line it went to an extreme closeup of Jack's face as he looked DIRECTLY into the camera.
I really liked this questline. walked into that house and I was like **jawdrop** and Jack's definition of "alien" was so spot on! I was kicking myself for not asking Jack about the 400 years thing when I had the chance before we went to the asylum.
it would be awesome to have a dlc related to the Cabot's, same like the mother ship or anchorage dlc of Fallout3 but this time its pre-war and set in Arabia where they discover Ubar.
this was one of my favorite quests in the game, also, I'm pretty sure Jack Cabot is actually based on Jack Parsons, the real life rocket scientist/occultist.
I was thinking that being his name is Jack, and they have you go to the Parsons Asylum, that they were possibly making a nod to Jack Parsons. They sort of look similar too.
Anyone else get the distinct feeling Fallout and Elder Scrolls may be connected? I mean, look at what we have seen: the dunwich building with its dark pillar, dunwich borers with its bizarre sword, telekinetics and telepaths, and even ghosts. What if those dark pillars are daedric shrines? What if Kremvekhs Tooth is from a dragon? What if this lost civilization is the Aeylids? The Aldmeri wanted to get rid of Talos worship to see if it'd tear the world asunder... perhaps it did, and what was left in its wake was a world much like our own.
My theory is that the Dwemer left nirn in a steam powered space ship (like mother ship zeta) prolong space travel turned them into little green men then they found earth and began Abductive people to make use there DNA to make themselves back into the elves they once were this would also explain why they build an underground city they lived unground on Nirn as well
Nope because fallout and elder scrolls were created by completely different devs so unless they mutually decided their games are connected then i doubt it.
Sean Lawless both are now primarily helmed by Todd Howard, and stranger things have happened... Unless you want to talk about that inferior product Obsidian crapped out. They should stick to South Park games.
Sean Lawless different dimensions intersecting at key intervals? A shift that changed everything about the world? Different planet? Every argument you have has a dozen counter arguments dreamed up already. Example: the nexus in Marvel. An interdimensional swamp that connects earth 616 to every other marvel continuity.
I was thinking that maybe the aliens were taking the petroleum and major resources for themselves because maybe they were lacking on their planet? Maybe hehe
I had just finished this quest line and immediately thought that this would make an amazing video from you, and the day later im here typing this. thanks man and hope you had a great Christmas/holiday!
Well, I guess that's true, my good man... But wait, what about the crashed zeta ship that we find and kill its alien, wait, bad example... What abut the ones in the Mojave? That... you... SHIT! fine, you got me, have an internet cookie my good apple. Well, I look forward to an intelligent conversation with you again, and before you go, Whats your favorite faction for Fallout 4 and whats your favorite Power Amour design? Mines the TB-60
I think you should do a very short and funny video about the three holotapes in Fiddler's Green Trailer Estates called The New Squirrel. I think you can have some demented fun with that shit...haha.
I think that Pickman's Gallery, the Mayor's Bunker, that death maze near the department store and the Boston commons (Swan's Pond + State House) would all make for interesting videos.
too my understanding obsidian and Beth each do their own thing when it comes too fallout, soo the story of Beth fallout have little too no bearing on obsidian fallout and vice versa.
Assassino275 That's why i enjoyed more playing NV than 3. And not much creepy Vaults, like the one filled with Garys or other toxicated with hallucination gas. Or one with experimenting on humans in radiation chambers.
+The Cynical Brony's Official UA-cam Page Obsidian characters and side quests are fairly better. But Beth's got the upper hand in term of atmosphere design.
This is actually pretty awesome, I really really hope there will be DLC specifically for this story where the guy wants to uncover the city and explore what was left and he brings you along with him.
FORTY ONE MINUTES. You know, while I was doing these quests I did have to stop several times to just drink in everything I was being told. This is probably the most interesting quest-line in the game, because there is so much that you aren't being told.
Just a thing to note if you kill Lorenzo by shooting him instead of using the radiation the rest of the Cabots will age and begin to die so yeah maybe Jack!s Intentions weren’t the best.
The serum is the best option as you won't honestly find a good use for the gun and the caps can be made easier elsewhere The serum is honesty the best as it starves off radiation very well for a long time and increases stats It's a miracle check with no negative effects
Maybe there's a interesting hint that this "ancient race/civilization" that Cabat is talking about is actually the Dwemer connecting it to the Elder Scrolls series (especially we may now know where the Dwemer disappeared to...) if the appearance of the Nirn root wasn't enough...
Okay, so I just wanted to try both endings, so I made a save before I decided whether to release him or not. I am confused though. Who is right? Lorenzo seems like he could be mentally unstable, but the situation is a little weird also. I don't like the fact that I have to help kill an entire family (and see their bodies and blood all over the place) just to solve a vendetta. I'm torn. I don't want to do the "wrong thing" (morally speaking).
Lord Spoon Morally speaking, the fact that Lorenzo killed of his entire family and did not resolve the problem in any peaceful way shows that his father may in fact have been affected by the crown changing his mental state to being homicidally violent. That may support Jacks claim of his crimes back in the day when he was free as he is ruthless to anyone standing at his path even to those he loved. Jack tried all he could in order to cure his father from his mental state, but his choice to kill his father became inevitable when his father was about to escape. I believed it was for the better good that Jack killed him since he saved his family and perhaps many others who would encounter Lorenzo with his limitless and uncontrollable powers.
Do any of you guys think Bethesda will ever release a full expansion to the Fallout series just dedicated to all H.P. Lovecraft seen throughout the series and actually cementing it within the Fallout Universe like they did with Mothership Zeta? So far a lot of the references have been on the fringe of the series while at the same time hinting that it plays a much larger role within the series.
I think a love craft thing would be interesting and maybe give some theory room for people trying to find connections between elder schools and fallout
Jack Cabot kept on being aggressive against me on the asylum part of this quest chain. Annoyed the hell out of me and had to load an older save more than once.
This is my favorite quest so far. But it kills me because I can't tell Jack of my encounter with the alien. Jacks reaction would've been worthwhile.
Nice Vid. Thanks!
I couldn't tell jack because I killed him
😉
I wonder would he believe that we are 200 years old
Yoda The Mass shooter he probably would. With how old and knowledgeable he is, he probably has some memories of vaultec and their shenanigans though obviously they don’t mean much to him and his personal interests and goals

You can find Lorenzo murdering ghouls to study them after he's been freed. You get another conversation out of it where you can turn on him.

As a believer of extraterrestrials, this was a bloody good episode! Can't wait for the episode looking at the Zetans themselves :'D
It's a shame you can't take the artifact from Lorenzo after you kill him and use it!
not even joking here : your voice is so damn soothing like please do audiobooks. i'd even buy a recording of you reading a grocery list ffs
that deathclaw throwing around cabots dad is so funny ahahaha
I think that Pickman's Gallery, the Mayor's Bunker, that death maze near the department store and the Boston commons (Swan's Pond + State House) would all make for interesting videos.
Does New Vegas have anything with Fallout 3-4? He mentions Mojave.
too my understanding obsidian and Beth each do their own thing when it comes too fallout, soo the story of Beth fallout have little too no bearing on obsidian fallout and vice versa.
+Mads Hummelshøj-Agerholm Obsidian is much better at writing as well
Assassino275 cant realy object to that.

That's why i enjoyed more playing NV than 3. And not much creepy Vaults, like the one filled with Garys or other toxicated with hallucination gas. Or one with experimenting on humans in radiation chambers.
+The Cynical Brony's Official UA-cam Page Obsidian characters and side quests are fairly better. But Beth's got the upper hand in term of atmosphere design.
This is actually pretty awesome, I really really hope there will be DLC specifically for this story where the guy wants to uncover the city and explore what was left and he brings you along with him.
And another thing may be because Lorenzo took the crown, the aliens decided to destroy the world? Idk teehee
The Seymour reference from Futurama got me. Was debating on subscribing then you said that... immediately hit the subscribe button.
welcome to the channel
Dylan Fanning I hated that episode I love dogs so I cri evr Tim
plus the zetans seem to have gotten here no earlier than the 15-1600s
okay you convinced me 100%, i am freeing the father
I've watched you for a long time and I still cant pin-point your accent.
+Ashens Couch Irish
thenthapple I imagine you to be a big burly man with a red beard now instead of just a disembodied voice.
Ashens Couch I can't grow a beard
thenthapple
that is the most depressing thing ever.
+thenthapple nonsense if you have an art degree in whip cream facial hair
Once again, a great video. I always look forward to your videos
It would make a BADASS DLC to be able to go to ARABIA and find all the artifacts ❤️
+Kevin Porth ARABIAN NIGHTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
+thenthapple lol maybe there will be an Aladdin Character
FORTY ONE MINUTES. You know, while I was doing these quests I did have to stop several times to just drink in everything I was being told. This is probably the most interesting quest-line in the game, because there is so much that you aren't being told.
I stop playing fallout after the dlc but thanks to u I have stuff to do now!
Just a thing to note if you kill Lorenzo by shooting him instead of using the radiation the rest of the Cabots will age and begin to die so yeah maybe Jack!s Intentions weren’t the best.
Wait if Jack's father is from the 1800's then that changes the Fallout Time slip
Could you imagine if the Brotherhood got wind of this city under the sand? Or even the Zetans?
I wonder why it wasn't possible to give Shaun the serum in order to extend his life?
Puddinghead 3434 I know right it seems like it was something that should have happened
This morning i woke up and i swear i thought about when you would make an episode about this.. got on youtube and BOOM!!!
(Lovecraft references intensify)
I think this channel may be CUUURSED with the best lore videos on UA-cam!
+Mikey TK help me break the CUUUUUUUUUURSE
I don't know what to chose... one gets me a lot of caps and the artifact gun but, the other gets me unlimited serum... I don't know....
The serum is the best option as you won't honestly find a good use for the gun and the caps can be made easier elsewhere
The serum is honesty the best as it starves off radiation very well for a long time and increases stats
It's a miracle check with no negative effects
VaderVoid thanks
I chose the artifact route and with investment into the nuclear physicist and gunslinger perk it is a one shot gun against most enemies
Maybe there's a interesting hint that this "ancient race/civilization" that Cabat is talking about is actually the Dwemer connecting it to the Elder Scrolls series (especially we may now know where the Dwemer disappeared to...) if the appearance of the Nirn root wasn't enough...
Could you do Vault 81 soon? A hole in the wall quest was interesting and id like to hear your take on it
This was an amazing video, thank you so much for your hard work!
Just when I was going to go to sleep.
Jack the scientist and Edward the brutish misshapen man... I see what you did there game! B)
Okay, so I just wanted to try both endings, so I made a save before I decided whether to release him or not. I am confused though. Who is right? Lorenzo seems like he could be mentally unstable, but the situation is a little weird also. I don't like the fact that I have to help kill an entire family (and see their bodies and blood all over the place) just to solve a vendetta. I'm torn. I don't want to do the "wrong thing" (morally speaking).
Lord Spoon Morally speaking, the fact that Lorenzo killed of his entire family and did not resolve the problem in any peaceful way shows that his father may in fact have been affected by the crown changing his mental state to being homicidally violent. That may support Jacks claim of his crimes back in the day when he was free as he is ruthless to anyone standing at his path even to those he loved. Jack tried all he could in order to cure his father from his mental state, but his choice to kill his father became inevitable when his father was about to escape. I believed it was for the better good that Jack killed him since he saved his family and perhaps many others who would encounter Lorenzo with his limitless and uncontrollable powers.
It would be amazing to have a DLC working with Jack Cabot to search for the Lost City in the southwest of the US.
Do any of you guys think Bethesda will ever release a full expansion to the Fallout series just dedicated to all H.P. Lovecraft seen throughout the series and actually cementing it within the Fallout Universe like they did with Mothership Zeta? So far a lot of the references have been on the fringe of the series while at the same time hinting that it plays a much larger role within the series.
I think a love craft thing would be interesting and maybe give some theory room for people trying to find connections between elder schools and fallout
I am going off the fallout lores God's
(atom and krenva too name two)
and elder schools dadrea
I hope not, since Mothership Zeta was atrocious.
Jack Cabot kept on being aggressive against me on the asylum part of this quest chain. Annoyed the hell out of me and had to load an older save more than once.
