@@chaosthecottoncandyfoxyeah and what’s makes it worst is your know it’s 50 tablets because you find them in lockboxes from before the war. It’s possible that the effects have aged over the years so it ain’t as powerful but I doubt it.
@@GoatSpedor the people from before the war that had it locked up used most of it. You also have to remember you can’t always rely on gameplay elements to tell you the exact lore behind things. Think about how unbalanced it would be to get 50 every time you find a bottle
It really depends on the amount and type of damage you receive. Because healing a normal slash probably wouldn't hurt. But if it pushes broken bones back into place, instead of just accelerating the healing, then yeah, it might hurt
Well that and the people who use stimpacks in the midst of a firefight are probably so hyped up on an adrenaline rush that any notion of pain just does not register in the human body.
[MINOR SPOILERS FOR THE FALLOUT TV SERIES] Actually now that I think about it, when I watched the pilot episode for the show, we did see Lucy inject herself with a stimpack after defeating her raider groom who tried to kill her. And from what I can see, it looked like it stung her a little bit. It might be slightly painful if you’re not feeling an adrenaline rush.
In the original Fallout games Nuka-Cola was addictive but all the addiction did was occasion bring up a bit a text in your pip-boy about how you want some Nuka-Cola.
That should come back, thats my real life addiction to sodie pop. The occasional thought "perhaps a soda with this meal" feels much the same as damn i want a nuka cola
Being a loot goblin I am, Buffout is my preferred chem thanks to having a boost to strength. And surprisingly in Fallout 76 I rarely get addicted to the stuff even with no chem resistant perk cards active.
relatable, even though my strength is pretty high because of a combination of mutations and perks, I still love munching on Buffout and ribeye steaks to be able to carry even more junk I'll never use 😼
I care. I would agree though, i always steered clear of chems but in new vegas id use turbo and buffout, or jet and buffout in 4. But same in 3, buffout always got a pass. Or mentats when i needed a few extra points of strength. Ya dont get addicted if you keep it in moderation lol
So for the whole amphetamines for people with adhd thing here's how it works. Individuals with ADHD usually have lower levels of dopamine, which is a chemical released in the brain that makes you feel good. This lack of dopamine causes people with ADHD to constantly seek stimulation. Adderall works by increasing levels of dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine, thus bringing the brain from a state of overstimulation to a normal state of stimulation.
When you finished talking about Turbo with the words "why do we have so much Jet", I chuckled and thought of the Jet derivate Rushing Water, one of my favorite New Vegas craftables for my current explosive/melee build
18:13 as an added point for that, in high doses, stimulants can cause side effects like seizures and memory issues akin to dementia after ceasing its use. I know this personally because its actually happened to me.
I feel like I'm in a Fallout version of Dare lesson. I'm surprised hadn't heard the "this is like if you combined all the cleaners in your house and drank it" line hdgdg Wonderful though. Good to know i can have something close to my adhd meds in the post apocalypse. XD
I frankly always figured that Buffout was just meth; heightened temporary combat ability and the ability to ignore that you are overencumbered, and it’s not like prewar companies would be conflicted with selling meth
Finnish Far Patrols used amphetamines to keep the men awake during the patrol which could take days to complete. About the things they did... I had a friend whose father was one of those men on Far Patrols. Even after the war he had nightmares for what they had done there.
Def agree with most of these but ive thought psycho closer to pcp. While it could be similar to amphetamines i think pcp is more fitting. Agression, damage resistance but it doesnt increase your perception/intelligence or agility. It just makes you not care about the pain and i take the damage increase as losing finer motor control, not being able to properly pull punches, always using all your strength. Those things are pretty similar to the dissociative properties of pcp.
Med-x, Mentats, and hydra are completely fine. Why do you think pain killers shouldn't be used? Would you NOT take painkillers if you broke a leg or something?
Cuz the game gives you -1 agility if you take too many Also look at what happened to dr mobius after too many mentats or joana after getting hooked on med-x
@@ijneb1248 that's because he's a brain in a weird advanced jar, Mentats are fine in normal circumstances, and infact they make children who have them, permanently smarter. As for Med-X, it is very obviously just morphine, which is a real world medication. Hydra definitely actually heals you, like look at head wounds, they make give you a straight up concussion which would not be fixed if it was a painkiller. And, real life medicine if taken in large doses, is also addictive.
Yeah idk this video was pretty annoying with the whole "dont do chems kids haha" thing, but I'm pretty sure it's for monetization reasons? Him specifically stressing the video is educational multiple times definitely makes me think that's the case. I don't know why youtube would punish a video for talking about fictional drugs...but I absolutely believe that's something the algorithm would pick up on. Even though I understand it, it doesn't really make it less annoying, though. Imagine telling a doctor in the hospital to not give somebody morphine because pain is important 😭
Through out all versions of the game Stimpacks are the only chem i use. I could see yhe benefits but knew I'd always wonder"is it me or the chem winning". 😊
In real life there is a drug called methadrone that is made from plant fertilizer so id say jet is actually that methadrone has the affect of making u faster ur reactions faster,faster thought patterns ect so id say jet is a mixture of meth and methadrone
"Let's be real, if you need Day Tripper in order to seduce Piper, that relationship wasn't gonna last that long." Moreover what does that say about Piper, that you need to be blitzed out of your mind for her to love you. 🤣
Yeah especially with the ones that actually have real world uses like med-x like yeah don't get addicted but morphine sounds like something you might want to use getting stung in the skull by a stingwing
My proof to the Fact Myron actually developed it is the fact it's not around in 76 and Myron in Fallout 2 can make a cure for the addictive properties of Jet. Also do you still need that toaster? I need to sell it to feed my Psychobuff addiction.
@@ijneb1248 Fentanyl too is an extremely helpful drug, its a very strong pain killer used to help cancer ridden people. Obv it's bad when abused, like any high power drug, but when given to you by a trusted doctor yes it's helpful. You ever hear about what things were like without Morphine, imagine surgery without a way to dull the pain. Morphine is literately the gold standard of pain meds. I'm not saying these two aren't over proscribed, or something, clearly there is an issue, but to say they aren't helpful is fucking crazy
so wait. IF there is 50 pills in a buffout bottle and when the player takes buffout, it's now gone from inventory..........are we popping all 50 pills each time??
I have my own head canon that jet is actually an amphetamine-like inhaler that I choose to believe over the canon answer to justify my abuse of it in fallout 4 survival mode
I’m pretty sure the new lore is that Myron just figured out a cheap easy way to replicate it and the other jet is different. That could be a good headcanon for you
My friend accidentally triggered a mission to make "calmex silk", given by Maddox in nukaworld. At the end, he gives you three shots. No idea if he'll give more or not? (I forgot the item he was looking for to make it happen... It all happened so fast as they already had the item on hand and i thought, what? Hidden quest???)
I think Psycho could also be like the drug Viking berserkers would use in combat but I guess it wouldn’t mix well with the game, so I think the ww2 explanation would make more sense since meth and cocaine was used a lot.
What I think is somewhat funny is in real life I have, and continue to be, a bit of an experimenter. However, in any games I play my character is ALWAYS borderline straight edge. 😂
what a horrendous video lmfao. I can stop taking chems whenever I feel like it. I'm in control. Dont need some pompus youtuber to tell me to not take them.

Med x and stimpacks is the only Chem I use when I play. Especially when I have to face a horde of super mutants or a death claw
Cool! No one gives a shit though man lol
It’s okay to use chems! Just know the all the effects and always use safely! Harm reduction is key! Not abstinence, it doesn’t work.

I can stop anytime, just don't want to
My charachter had one rule about chem usage: every chem before every encounter.
It's weird that NPCs can be seen smoking, but players can't...
The closest analog for Hydra in real life might be platelet rich injections like we see some pitchers get instead of Tommy John surgery
Norte - Don't take (X).
Me - Don't take (X) unless you pick Logan's Loophole in NV or maxed Chem Resistant in 4.
