Oxhorn you do know you can press shift to change the direction you rotate an object. It only changes in 3 directions (X, Y ,Z)
he's done one on preston, it's not that hard to search for it on youtube, dude.
Oxhorn Only you could find a way to talk about a pond for almost 30 minutes. XD Awesome video as always!
Oxhorn how many hours do you have so far in fallout 4? I've got around 700 and still no social skills.
can you do a video on camp guardian
It's also ironic that the tour was sponsored by General Atomics whom makes robots to do your work so you don't have to.
ConorChaos It's also ironic that Walden pound is now a state park.
Robots, so we can do more important things, like philosophy!
DOUBLE IRONIII!!!!!
Bro explaining he joke in the comments😂😂😂
Can people not spell
Stingwings setting off landmines makes perfect sense as mines in the Fallout Universe not including the older titles seem to all be proximity based not pressure based.
Yeah so true I've noticed that and it brings yo mind the bridge to prim that has mines on them although poor stingwing flying about scavenging like everyone else and boom. Little timmy stingwing has lost his dad lol
that behemoth was just trying to defend his artwork.
Defending his erection! :)
you were wrong oxhorn! that man wasn't farming cats for food. the cats were farming humans for food and only making you think that the opposite was true!
I believe it
Nyarlathotep good thing I killed those little fucks and all other cats around the commonwealth as well
Nyarlathotep I know you are joking around, but Henry didn't resort to eating cats and other animals. He resorted to eating mainly plants and sometimes he would consume bugs. I read Walden so I'm getting it from Thoreau himself..
Gamerman 375 👋 BOI
Nyarlathotep SHIT THEY KNOW!!
I think the dead woman in the shed with the broken neck is a reference to Of Mice and Men. Referencing Lenny snapping Curly's wife's neck in the barn.
another author I think is overrated.

What is it with games and making references to overrated books/people?!
"It's such a strange erection."
-Oxhorn 2017
I swear I heard a trombone riff in my head when he said that!
Shade the Wolf
Suxh a strange Lorection.
Get it?
Lore erection...
...
Okay...
I'm just gonna go now...
...
I'll just... sit over here... quietly...
That's what she said
I'll see myself out
I love it when common enemies have unique dialogue and unique actions
I'm pretty sure that the "sniper rifle" name is added when you have a scope and long barrel. You can have a .50 caliber hunting rifle if you mod it specifically.
I also think the cat merchant is kinda sad. The house, and the fact that he marks the graves, shows that he cares about the cats and is probably doing what he is doing out of desperation.
Yes, upgrading hunting rifles with scopes and barrels does change the name to sniper rifle. Oxhorn should have known that!
And for me, I always get a crazy cat lady merchant at that location!
i feel really bad for the cats (i have two in real life) but it is almost the same as farming cows, pigs, or chickens
If Bethesda likes Edgar Allen Poe so much the next game should be set in Richmond, Virginia since that is where his house is. Also they can do stuff with the factions. There can be civil war style faction, since Richmond, and Petersburg was the site for the last battles of the war, and there are many historical buildings there, like the Altria theater, better known as "The Mosque" due to its style of architecture. Hollywood Cemetery, Byrd Theater, the Nickel Bridge, Monument Avenue, strange things also exist under Richmond, also the Grey Tortoise cigarette factory can be there since Richmond is the site of Philip Morris Cigarette factory. I would love to have a Fallout game set in Richmond. Do it Bethesda please.
Could be okay, but a little on the small side for a Fallout game and very close to DC comparatively.
Also consider how much they squandered Salem and all that could have been.
If you want Civil War vibes, Charleston would be the city to do (and you can even get some Poe from "The Gold Bug" that is set there).
New Orleans still seems like the richest option left in the US that is not redoing something or coming up with a way to explain New York suddenly being accessible.
CenturionMBT24 I don't know man I mean i really like FO4 for its cities and multiple places to discover but it would be cool if in the fallout universe Some relativly small city in our universe got hella huge or something so it's basically a whole new place to explore
The problem with someplace small in our timeline getting huge in the Fallout timeline is that it would remove the connections to our world and timeline that make Fallout's world so compelling.
Walden Pond, that you literally walk the road from Concord down to Lexington with the minutemen, all the historic stuff in Boston - the game is drowning in it all.
You can even go pull up a map of Boston and you will find yourself matching names to cites all over Fallout 4 you never would have believed are actually there. (The game is likely doubly fun for people from Boston).
________________
An all-new place would lack those connections to our shared history and known places. That is why you will always see Fallout games tied to well-known cities, particularly those with lots of well known history and interesting architectural features.
That is why DC, Vegas, and Boston were such great choices.
DC has tons of history and the most iconic structures in the nation.
Vegas has far less history, but made up for it in charm with a few key structures (the Strip and Hoover Dam).
Boston has the richest history, if fewer well-known landmark buildings.
That is one of the reasons New Orleans has gotten so much traction in speculation - it is a historic city with well known features and a distinct culture.
If you were looking for other cities that could do it, there are a few - though LA, San Fran, and Chicago would retcon the early games and New York would need an explanation for why everyone though it was a lifeless wasteland of total destruction.
New Orleans, Atlanta, Orlando, Charleston, and Seattle all seem like things you could do - as they all have iconic sights and plenty of history or unique culture.
St. Louis, Austin, Memphis, and Philly could also work though they would be a reach (Philly just because it thematically overlaps with Boston).
Ok yeah Richmond isn't the largest city, and it's not as well known. It does have nice architecture and a unique layout, (the fan). But also the tri-cities to the south of Richmond can be included (if Peterburg is there you can have the crater battlefield and Ft. Lee) Richmond might not be as large or as iconic as Boston but if they did it it would be closer to its actual size because I'm sure they shrunk the square mileage of Boston for the game. I'm not a big fan of New Orleans so I would prefer St. Louis, Chicago, Atlanta or Miami. New York would be amazing but could they do it justice I don't know. Also I'm a Virginian so a Fallout in Richmond would be a dream come true.
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'
Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore -
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore -
Nameless here for evermore.
And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating
`'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door -
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; -
This it is, and nothing more,'
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
`Sir,' said I, `or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you' - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, `Lenore!'
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, `Lenore!'
Merely this and nothing more.
Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
`Surely,' said I, `surely that is something at my window lattice;
Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore -
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; -
'Tis the wind and nothing more!'
Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door -
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door -
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.
Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven.
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore -
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning - little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door -
Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as `Nevermore.'
But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered `Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'
Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'
Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
`Doubtless,' said I, `what it utters is its only stock and store,
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore -
Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore
Of "Never-nevermore."'
But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore -
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking `Nevermore.'
This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core;
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining
On the cushion's velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o'er,
But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er,
She shall press, ah, nevermore!
Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
`Wretch,' I cried, `thy God hath lent thee - by these angels he has sent thee
Respite - respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! -
Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,
Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted -
On this home by horror haunted - tell me truly, I implore -
Is there - is there balm in Gilead? - tell me - tell me, I implore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil!
By that Heaven that bends above us - by that God we both adore -
Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,
It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels name Lenore -
Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels name Lenore?'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting -
`Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!
Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!
Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!
How can Oxhorn's videos be so great? He's not even a Scientist!
MrTroll9795 You don't need to be a rocketscientist to make a good video but you probably not should be an institue "scientist."
CRYOKnox I know, I was just playing with X6-88's quote at 9:14
MrTroll9795 sorry didn't wanted to offend missed the quote.
CRYOKnox No worries.
MrTroll9795 for someone with a name "troll" in there you're actually a really nice person
I wasn't going to say anything about "hyper bowl" (which I can only assume was supposed to be hyperbole) until he started mocking the raiders. Brilliant
Pronounced "hi-per-bow-lee" for anyone who missed that class👌😉
"Yay capitalism!"
Amazing, haha.
I love how you seem to find gold in a muddy pond.
Fantastic work as usual, Sir.
Great video. I was just watching for the Walden part.
Don't feed the Yao Gui! That is all...
C PT and now... some music....
Doesn't matter. Yao Gui the Bear will steal your picnic basket anyway with little Boo Boo at his side to protect him from copyright infringement.
Watcha out for them 'Guai
Unless it's bullets, they love bullets to death.

YES
panzerGAMEBOY comfermnd tweez is the only intelligent raider p.s NEEERRRRRRRRRRD
panzerGAMEBOY Agreed, ❤️
life is simple
4 video ends
5(sadness)
Think it's more likely the raider Tweez also heard the same thing from the speaker that you did and that's how he knows about Thoreau and transcendentalism. Think that's what Bethesda were aiming for when you come across the encounter. Just meant to portray them as quite unintelligent with the one guy just repeating what i heard trying to sound smart.
AntiMatter DotA Still, for me, it humanized Tweeze enough that I felt a little bit bad that I had to kill him.
Of course the raider got it wrong. These idiots are burned out psycho addicts.
Remember Kids: Don't feed the Yaoguai! ;) :D
Thanks three dog keep fighting the good fight
"Its such a strange erection" OMG LOL IM DYING XD
haha like lol xd that was so funny im like dying right now who did this please help me im seriously dying this isnt a joke hahahahha xd
I had to search comments to see if anyone had already posted this... lmao!!!! Sorry Ox...
welly thegod i
i don't think ox was thinking properly when saying it
I have a strange erection
Think you missed the guts of the joked. A self-reliant philosophy sponsered by mister handy assistant 😂

I don't think he farms the cats. I think they are pets and in the wasteland, why not eat or sell the meat when they die.
The hunting rifle was probably upgraded because of your level...
I'm so glad you covered this!
I just lockpicked the door, and the minute I walked in they all started shooting at me.
I figured that I had probably missed some interesting dialogue since they all had unique names and the place looked semi-important.
ha, I got an ad for Walden University on this video
Carhenge is a thing. Not in Boston though.
Alliance, Nebraska. As a Nebraskan, we're proud of our landmarks, because there's not much else to be proud of.
Several are around the World; Cars, Trucks, Buses, VW Bugs and a few made of Shipping Containers @@DanielOzghoBoyd
Something tells me we're not going to see a Fallout set in Nebraska for quite some time.
I thought it would be a great spot for a mirelurk den.
18:45 I know that feel bro.
Lmao😂
I have had an interest in Walden Pond from an early age, due to people getting my name confused with Walden. It seems this is somehow a more natural ordering of sounds for the tongue than Wadlin is, and so this mistaken name has followed me throughout my 65 years. I tried to read "Walden" and found it a difficult slog. I liked a lot of the self reliant stuff, but also found much of it silly. Give me Poe's writing and philosophy anytime.
I usually catch Walden Pond on my way to Sunshine Co-op, which is assigned to me by Preston or The Railroad (PAM?) fairly early.
Most of my characters have high sneak and I get my lockpick skills up pretty early. I don't care for power armor due to the way it changes the interface (though Gopher has a mod that fixes that), and the added difficulty to sneak. I don't use drugs at all normally, with the exception of Grape(?) Mentats when I absolutely need the charisma.
That pond looks like a perfect spot for a mirelurk den
Gained yourself a new sub, watched a few of your videos and even though I own all the fallouts I find myself rushing through those games and never really exploring. You however do it for me and I love it! Great videos.
This reminds me I need to collect my Fallout 4 from my friend who borrowed it for 4 months. Thanks Ox
Man. It's dialogue like that that kind of makes me feel bad for the raiders. Like, there's definitely this aspect, at least with the lower ranking mooks, where they were brought up into this mess from children, and really aren't aware that viable alternative lifestyles exist. Not that that makes them good people or anything. Just that I feel bad for how their lives turned out.
19:07 the miners at sloan actually mention using draglines (pre-war "cranes") to move or relocate rocks at Quarry Junction, and according to Chomps Lewis they still use draglines, but since they're pre-war they have to "give them a couple of whacks" to keep them working, or something along those lines
this kind of video with insight in transidentalism brings me so much delight
"transidentalism "
Is this an hommage to that raider?
If I remember right, in an in-modded game this vendor is the only one to sell the Atom Cats Jacket as well. Thank you for your amazing zids
Hey oxhorn you should try to do a video called " Dogmeats Origins" where you try to explain dogmeats previous owner/ where he came from
You trying to start stuff? VPG just did that one! lol
Oh I didn't know sorry @court beckius
NoManGamers maybe day guy that sold you the junkyard dog maybs
Everytime I hear Ox saying "shack", I just imagine him finding a bunch of Shaquille O'Neials placed around the Commonwealth.
you should listen to all the companion comments about this place.
To change the topic of this video real fast, I kind of wished they made the Winter Jacket & Jeans capable of being upgraded with Ballistic Weave, probably my favorite of the more casual of clothing available in Fallout 4, especially that it's a winter jacket over a flannel shirt, could have served as great armor/clothing for a hunter/survivalist build; alas, you can only have higher damage resistance via leg armor and the perks that increase your ballistic and energy resistance. Nonetheless it's one of my favorite clothing cause like I said it's a goddamn jacket. If anyone knows of any jacket-like clothing in Fallout 4, please tell me, would love to get it.
Wants to conserve ammunition
‘Hipfires’
U should do part of a vid on waystation near Oberland station if u go down the hatch there's a settler and torture equipment.
Maverick Sterling true.
Maverick Sterling it's covered in one of the relay tower videos. If you activate the nearby relay tower one of the distress signals leads to that waystation.
For me one of the most memorable places in fallout universe is dunwich building from fallout 3: the story behind ghouls in this area and obelisk, the way they managed to connect main game and point lookout dlc are very interesting and well written so it would be cool to know your opinion about this location. It may be not as interesting as some vaults lore but still such thing as magic book in post apocalyptic world is quite rare and unique
When I walked into Walden pond, I had absolutely no ammo. I saw the sign of bears and I went to try and knock the sign down... Then a Yao Guai DESTROYED me, so I never read signs again
i love the sight of oxhorns video in the evening
When it comes to the cat shack, I see a different scenario playing out. I think it belonged to a “cat lady”. The graves were cats she buried. When she died, the cats ate her and it’s her bones in the doghouse. Later, the trader came along an turned the shack and surviving cats into a sustainable meat farm.
You didn't talk much about the wrench: Big Jim. There's a pop culture reference behind the name of that wrench.
James Smith
I only know an action figure called Big Jim. Had it as a child and loved it. Big Jim was a great adventurer and got a big biceps when you bent his arm. Just great! :)
Ox, I have gotten this quest at early level, the target was a 10mm and it had higher tier mods, giving me a very powerful pistol for early game. The weapon is generated when you either loot or read the note based on your level. In my current game I got this quest pointing me to the South Boston Military Checkpoint. By the time I went there the laser rifle in the quest was weak but I walked away with a full suit of X-01 power armor. I actually stopped there on my way to Vault 88, and the armor was very useful in clearing the Quincy Quarry and in clearing and activating all workshops in the vault.
I miss thenapples soothing voice
Kill Me Crash oxhorn is way better
Kill Me Crash that dude is annoying with that lame british humor
AVGVSTVS ? Come on we don't need to get rude here, we can enjoy both.
They're both great
Kill Me Crash SAME
I must have come across that trader with the cats a few times now and never not once thought about it hard enough to connect the dots. This is precisely why I watch you, ox.
I just thought of Henry David Thoreau's cabin when I got the notification. (Oxhorn, you are lit).
I actually wrote a paper in grad school about Thoreau with an introduction directly addressing Walden Pond's appearance in Fallout 4... this paper eventually led to my master's thesis, also about Thoreau (among other things).
I REALLY wish I had seen this video beforehand.
The speakers voice reminds me of Pickamn's with the basically monotone voice
StripedLlama607 Rainman
Another irony of the Thoreau cabin is that it is sponsored by General Atomics, maker of the Mr. Handy line of robots.
"I kinda feel bad for killing him now"
-an Oxhorn story
Love that the claw mark went off the sign. Great job. Wonderful wonderful job.
it's hi-per-bo-lee
not hyper-bowl
Not wanting to be a pronunciation Nazi. Just a heads up for later usage.
He also mispronounced Schoelt as "sholett"
And for gods sake its "prozay" not "proce"
Black Lanner I like how you put that. I check to see if others think the same things that I do (like the pronunciation of hyperbole), but I never want to come off like a grammar nazi. But it rly is just meant as a heads up for later usage
Hey, the world needs grammar Nazis
Again I'm absolutely stunned by your observations and keen eye for details, Oxhorn!!
I never would have noticed the size of the graves or have assumed that it could be the graves of cats the vendor slaughtered. But you pick up on really even the smallest hints (cat meat in inventory) and connect them!
Absolutely fantastic!!
I really like your videos and I lovet that you spend so much time on your content.
I can`t stop watching your videos, I've been watching and watching for two days. Keep it up, me and my friends are looking forward to see more!
Hey Oxhorn, I've been binging on your videos the past few days, tossing a random comment here and there, really enjoying your stuff. You have a voice made for narration and storytelling. It has been a relief while I await surgery on my legs, I have a variety of torn muscles, tendons, and my hamstrings are damaged as well. I imagine I will watch watch quite a bit more of you while recuperating. Just wanted to say thanks for the entertainment. Wish I could become a Patron, not in the cards for a few months yet. Being unable to work as much as I want sucks. I do have a suggestion for a video, a profile on Deacon if you do not have one already. I looked around and was unable to find one. Your take on him would be most interesting. Thanks again for the unique takes on an interesting world.
yee
Yee yee juice
Finally building at Walden Pond, putting a two floor bar/inn at the gift shop, campfire area and a small lakeside cabin.
Also there's a railroad safehouse underneath in the raider tunnels
Lol walden pond one was of the first places i discovered............at level 61
This past year of my schooling I learned about Henry David Thoreau and read Walden pond. Then a little later I realized there was this location in fallout 4. I think it's so cool that I now understand what it's about
on my game in the cat house, the trader is a woman..
I just have to say I don't comment like ever but I feel compelled to tell you thank you. I am a recovering addict and the world of fallout 4 is what kept me sane in the worst times of my recovery. I started watching your videos when I started playing the game and I absolutely love your take on the lore. It all takes me out of the pain of being a addict OIF veteran with severe ptsd. Well I am lumping you your videos and the game as what saved me from the worst period of my life so thank you. Sincerely.
hyper-bole? really oxhorn. hy-perb-olye.
I love how they added Thoreau. Learn about him a lot in my class...
So he has a...pet cemetary?
1:20 the way you said kickball made me watch this part 5 times.
He eats CATS in the apocalypse?!!? UNACCEPTABLE!!!!
Oxhorn always says the name of the thing hes reviewing in a spooky voice
"hyperbowl"
About Thoreau. He didn't really stay out in a cabin on his own for 2 years. He lived near town and often had dinner with friends. At one point he was arrested for... something and spent a night in jail. Emmerson was more into trancendentalism than Thoreau and got Thoreau into it to really help it take off (he mentored Thoreau and saw a potential philosopher). While he did patch clothes and grow beans, he was hardly solely self-reliant or isolated.
they left out the statue of Henry David Thoreau but w.e lol
Well this is an alternate universe; perhaps the statue was never built, or maybe it was salvaged for scrap. In the real world there isn't a gift shop by Thoreau's cabin either.
Hey, Oxhorn, I love your videos and was wondering... Could you do a video on Mama Murphy? I always hear her talking about her past, and how she killed a Deathclaw with one shot. It always makes me wonder about her past, and then I wonder if what she says is even possible in the game. CAN you kill a Deathclaw with one bullet? With whatever gun she mentioned??
It could also be a video just about the sight in general as well. There's story behind it involving a particular raider and everything. Would make an interesting video. :)
they're proximity mines ya dingdong
Funny thing, at my school we were studying David Henry Thoreau's work. We read his essay/book on Civil Disobedience. Finding this made me laugh a bit, I wasn't expecting it but it was pretty cool.
FALLOUT 4!!!
Luka Radisavljevic any noob watching this will now think that if you see a maniken get to cover
I just love Fallout 4...
Robert Lee Castillo Jr. Well, u shouldnt call people 'noob' because a lot of people can be doing a sneak build and pretty much the whole time they would be hiding. Also u spelt Mannequin wrong.
TheOneSlasherax You are right!
TheOneSlasherax Do you know what noob means and also I knew I misspelled mannequin
Not sure if you mentioned it (I don't think you did) but there is another random encounter location just UNDER the overpass with the raiders. One playthrough I ran into a man and his son talking about the boy's dead mother and how he missed her. Got a nice conversation with them, and then the raiders attacked and I defended both of them successfully.
I fucking love cats like if you are the same
At 27:32, under that raider base on the highway, if you go underneath the on-ramp part, you'll find another fixed location for random encounters. I ran into the Man and his daughter (the Road reference) there. There's actually two parts to that location. The random encounter occurs on the side of the on ramp, with characters leaning on the wall. The other part, which can trigger another encounter is between the on-ramps' embankment and the fallen portion of the highway. There is a fire place and a duffle bag, unrelated to the other encounter.
Im early let me make a joke
This is unoriginal
Jk the joke is PERFECT SPOT FOR MEME DEN
ChunkyMonkey YT You already joked once, you shall not joke again.
Spookbumps ;(
ChunkyMonkey YT and
Ravaske ?

I got big jim before lvl 10. that wrench is amazing against ghouls when you add a hook mod, oh and the mines who said they land mines and not proximity mines which makes more sense since they beep when you get close not directly ontop of em. so the sting wing could set it off if its a proxy mine
I live your videos
Vapor Daddy damn. next level
Vapor Daddy You live of off video's?
hey Oxhorn, thanks for all the videos! as a huge fallout fan, discovering your channel was amazing!! It's really nice to see how much effort you put on explaining things and coming up with nice theories for the whole game! makes Fallout seem so real! Keep up the nice work :D
Perfect spot for a TYPICAL INSTITUTE ARROGANCE.
That was a really treat video. Great way to make a small area more interesting by exploring the surrounding area.

Man Oxhorn. Seeing you explore the commenwealth is awesome, you're always so... thoreau.
Just as an FYI, the Stingwing set off the mine because the models for flying creatures is technically something along the lines of a regular human actor with a Stingwing on it's head. It's the same reason Ed-e is so clumsy. Typically they just give the creatures that fly the 'light step' perk, or just code the actor to have the equivalent ability to prevent them from setting off traps.
Ox, my friend and I love your videos and we'd love to see you eventually do a Spectacle Island video since you've mentioned it so much in the past and all that
We found it and he said "hey!! Let's see what makes Oxhorn love it so much!!" We didn't expect a giant nest of mirelurks.
Now he really wants the video! XD Regardless, love your videos and keep up the good work!!
Finally a video I can watch. I'm in the middle of playing New Vegas for the first time, so I skipped all the "Dead Money" videos to avoid spoilers
Pressing shift will change the rotation of items in 3D space. There are 3 types of rotation. I use this all the time to flip crates and those blue plastic bins on shelves to see if there is anything hidden inside them. There often is.
I just started a new game and explored the whole north west corner and then literally came looking for this video. I love seeing what I found and what I missed and any easter eggs
lol, over 300 hours in F4 and I've never been to Walden Pond. Great video.
I love the way you use the tv to show us the history story :)
I was so get it to discover this place in Fallout 4 because shortly before I bought Fallout 4 Walden was actually the last book I read I read it for high school and I really enjoyed it so this was just a pleasant treat
Hey Oxhorn, there is a guy I came across that talks about how to manipulate picked up objects very easily. His channel is the Skool Zone. He addresses it in the first video of his no mods shop class. Keep up the awesome work dude!
nice shot taking out those two raiders, I received my shirt yesterday, thanks!
