I see many questions about how Hilda could have possibly been Agatha's great-great-grandmother. Remember in episode 1 of this short series, Agatha told us that Hilda corresponded with her daughter Mary (Mary was Agatha's great-grand mother) by mail. They must have lived far apart, and this must have happened before the bombs dropped, as there was no mail system after the war. In those letters, Hilda told her daughter Mary that she had been invited into a Vault-Tec vault due to her musical talent. But we have no indication that Mary had any musical talent, and so she was not invited. When the bombs dropped, Hilda found refuge in Vault 92, but her daughter, Mary, was left outside like most people. Mary then went on to live the rest of her life, get married, and have children, without ever knowing what happened to her mother Hilda. She passed this story down to her child, who then passed it down to her child, Agatha. So, Hilda was a mother before she entered Vault 92.
The symptoms of the crazies remind me of a Star Trek Next Gen episode where the crew are unable to achieve REM sleep which results in many crew members becoming murderously violent to the point where all crew members have to be incapacitated for their own and the ships safety with the exception of Data. When Dr. Malleous says the overseer was subjecting them in his sleep he may have made those most susceptible unable to achieve REM sleep hence why Zoe says she's getting sleepy. The Facts fit as a trance state and REM sleep are total opposites when it comes to brain wave activity and as Shown in many T.V shows like ST:NG, Agent Carter, and Sherlock it can have Detrimental affects.
Oxhorn, Hey... You should do a video that tells if Sturges knows he's a synth... I mean... He never attacks your settlements and helps you destroy the institute, so is he a synth who escaped with the railroad, or perhaps he is just an escaped synth who wants his revenge on the institute? Or, the most daring of all, is he still working for the remnants of the institute, ordered by Father to continue his legacy far past his inevitable doom. I would just like to see what evidence you can dig up to prove these, or your own, theories. Just an idea for your next video.
Ox, back in 1975 my father was a soldier in the "People's" Army of Bulgaria. Once he was a subjected to a high pitched noise in a undergroung naval base. He said that he was laughting like a person suffering from oligophrenia the whole time he was inside. The most horrifying thing for him was that that he was aware of his condition the whole time, but unable to stop. Sadly those type of experiments were common on the both sides of the Iron curtain back in the days.
That sounds absolutely terrible. I have tinnitus and my ears frequently ring like hearing test beeps. I can’t imagine what being down there would have been like.
This vault likely took the people with musical talent since i have heard that musically inclined people have a better tuned hearing. For the experiment with the white noise and mind control you could have the commands go through and not potentially be recognized by those with no musical talent
I would presume Zoe was a younger woman based on the use of dreamy. I theories that some of the population would have been younger musicians considered promising to maintain the population. Additionally the phrase little old me does not necessarily refer to age. It can but e one of those faux disparaging phrases intended to indicate either themselves as humble or false humility.
haxorus123 dude I was thinking that too only way would be if Hilda had a kid before she died but it's never mentioned and if most of the vault died I doubt a little kid made it
Every morning I have to drive 30 minutes to and 30 minutes from the methadone clinic. So at 5am on weekdays and 3am on weekends I have to get up and be alone to drive to this incredibly depressing place. Having these videos to listen to during my drive is making what could be an awful tedious part of my life and turning it into the best part of my day. I am sometimes tempted to watch Oxhorn during other times but I refuse to do so and save it for the morning. So I won't be able to watch this one until tomorrow morning but man am I looking forward to it. You are so good t story telling that I don't even need to see the screen I just listen to you tell the story. Besides I've spent hundreds of hours playing all of the Fallout games so when you talk I can see the place in my mind. I don't know how long I'm going to be on methadone, it certainly beats living the way I was, always dopesick and scared that I was going to end up dead or in prison. Thinking how awful it would be for my girlfriend to find me blue and cold or me just not showing up one day because I caught a possession charge . So this is a necessary evil so to speak. Thanks for making it easy. You easily have created enough and create enough content that I'll always have a story to go along with my drive. Sometimes its those little things that keep people going. I can't thank you enough, its clear you put so much hard work into these videos. Awhile back I was listening and at the end of a vid your daughter came in and interrupted your recording. You were so sweet to her, it was a far cry from what my father would have done when I was that age. It nearly brought me to tears hearing that little interaction. So thanks even more for the time you put in that keeps you away from your family. You could cut corners and halfass things to get in and get the job done but its clear you go the extra mile for us the fans. Just wanted to voice my gratitude, you've made a lifetime fan out of me. Once I get some extra crash Ima get me one of them nifty tshirts you sell. Can't wait for the next video and I'm itching to watch this one in the morning!
@@nautikient2151 famous music producer, recorded Beastie Boys, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Run DMC, System of a Down, Slayer, Adele, basically name a famous American artist and he's probably produced a record for them
Hey ox, I know I'm a few days late but i have been thinking about the experiment in the vault. I don't think that they needed people who were virtuosos at classical music, just people who liked to listen to it a lot, people who had "good ears", who could hear if a violin in an orchestra was out of tune, or in this case, hear a voice whispering over the PA system at night.
I was just thinking the same thing. It also reminded me of the "Would You Kindly" phrase. Plus, it got me thinking the question Andrew Ryan had asked Jack. "Are you a man or a slave? A man chooses and a slave obeys."
As for the D minor compared to G major, it is possible that they played it in D minor because they wanted to rather than G major. People will experiment with music to find out how it sounds when modified rather than always being a stickler for what the music sheet says. I think you read more into it than there was.
Cool real world fact, Rick Rubin is a famous music producer. He worked on a huge variety of projects for everybody from Adele to the Beastie Boys to LL Cool J to Slayer. Figured that was an interesting tidbit
Oh Vault-Tech, never change. Does anyone else wish we could strap the Vault Tech highest ranking executives and scientists into a looping extremely realistic VR simulation (like FE3s Operation Anchorage sim) of every horror they reaped upon every innocent over and over for eternity?
I’m not that surprised by the madness of the Overseer. What I find unbelievable is that the vault security went along with this. They knew that people were going crazy and the overseer was suddenly refusing to speak with the head scientist. They side with the Overseer. 30% of the vault goes nuts, and the Overseer hardly seems to care. They still listen to him. Even with half of the populous having gone crazy, and the Overseer’s kill phrase not working, they still trust him? The security personnel knew about the experiment, but that just makes it even less justifiable. Why would anybody be stupid enough to follow this madman? Trying to escape was clearly the only sane option at this point, and it seems like security tried to put down the survivors who were attempting to flee from the death and chaos of the vault. All on the Overseer’s orders.
Vault-Tec has been known to do many experiments, often ones using authority figures to make lesser people listen better. To convince people that if they share the guilt, the can *survive.* They cannot, however, and even the most convincing person in the world could not change any of these citizens minds, because everything already seems like a lost cause to them, so they choose to die on their own terms. Vault-Tec likes to keep people in the vaults, no matter what it takes. Keeping them inside ensures more information, and more people to do experiments on to get said information. It may have been in their plan all along, or maybe they bribed/blackmailed/threatened or forced them to listen to their superiors in exchange for their and their families lives, until Vault-Tec no longer saw them as necessary. Humans are smart, but large groups of humans often become blinded by the majority vote. Blinded even to things that are obviously wrong or the "worse choice."
Another possibility with Zoe is that even in her first log entry, the mind control frequencies could already be having subtle effects that she might not notice, like getting musical keys mixed up.
Not only is this vault amazing with its fallout history, you can literally hear the pressure change and high pitch frequency that would drive a person mad. Its things like this that make fo3 so incredible.
Biggie I would say true, but depends on the person, I was at work once and over a time period of about a week I was extremely tired, which was strange since I have ADHD, and I have an abnormal amount of energy from it (I only say that because I do, but when I take medicine for ADHD [Yes, I tried different kinds to prevent my tiredness], I am extremely bored and I have about half the energy I usually have). Around this time, I have been off of my medicine for about 3 years, so withdrawals wouldn't be major if any at all. During the week, there was a renovation company working on a building next door, and when they finished, I was completely fine. I asked my coworkers about the feeling afterwards, and they said they were fine the whole week. So I started thinking, what if the renovation company was using something to make me feel like that indirectly. I went to the renovation company's shop and storage building off of that hunch, and discovered that they had a piece of equipment that meant for cutting drywall more efficiently that they used on the job. I asked to be able to see it and when they turned it on, it sounded like a normal drywall tool, but later that night, I experienced the same tiredness that I had when they were renovating the building next door. So I would have to assume that the equipment emitted some type of frequency that I couldn't here or sense in anyway other than my tiredness later in the day.
My conclusion, the problem occured because the subliminar messages where played during the night, disturbing the "subjects" slow-wave sleep phase. Without this people have a high tendecy for aggresion, coupled with the subliminar combat protocols, this created walking bombs just waiting for a trigger to explode.
Two years late but I have to say, I've known most of the lore on this vault through my own playthroughs but yet here I am 90% into the video before I even realised it. Love the way you narrate the playthrough, it really pulled me in. Subbed for sure great content.
Just wanted to tell you are doing a good job. Very exciting even just to listen to you narrating and I often turn your videos to fall asleep along with them.
Dammit I’d just finished this vault then I watched this video and realised I missed a bunch of it, so now I need to adventure down into this horrible place once again. This vault was terrifying. Great video though btw
I seen ur comment on the live stream about Skyrim I recommend finishing the game with or without mods just enjoy the story 😊 the lore is crazy even deeper than fallout!
You really thought about what happened in the vault, compared to me who just came in, listened and read everything, barely a thought, got the violin and left. This skill and understanding of a story leads to an amazing output in telling the story. Amazing job Oxhorn, Amazing job indeed
Quick note: killing in cold blood means it's a calculated decision you take as supposed to killing in hot blood: killing out of rage, jealous etc, possibly regretting it later. That sounds more like what you're describing Zoe as.
Looking at this, this vault had an experiment for mind control using white noise which is impossible because white noise has no general effect on cognitive functions and there are two types of white noises that I know which are 65dB and 45dB.
Vault 92 gave me a Dead Space vibe to it. It was dark, old, people started losing their minds, turning violent, the people in charge want to continue the source that is causing the incidents. Granted, people aren't turning into horrible monsters, but it's a close. Excellent work, I've recently started getting into the Fallout Universe, and your work is great. Subbed immediately
My only complaint, as someone with an audio engineering degree, for the script writers is that the term "white noise" refers to the sound of all frequencies played at the same volume. "Pink noise" is all the frequencies of the human hearing range played at the same volume. "low frequency white noise" is a bit of an oxymoron.
Hey it's vault tec we are dealing with here and they aren't exactly always 'expert scientifically minded'. They are a business and I mean... just look at how the medical industries compared to actual doctors tends to use that very well known icon for medicine. Stick with snake..... or rather the wrong-use of the hermes staff with twin snakes, rather than the stick wit ha singular snake entwined around it that is the symbol for the greek god of medicine. Hence why Vault Tec is not really doing great science.
Yes, he really inspired me to do my own series. He's really similar to how I am in Irl and I honestly stopped doing videos because I thought people would dislike that kind of person. It's amazing how Ox helps so many people get over a bad day. I lost my mother and grandmother during this time if year so He really helps focus on something else even when you don't wanna play any games and just a be bed borrito.
I"ve often felt that out of all of the Vault-Tec Vault experiments, that this one was the most cruel. Imagine how much better the fallout world would've been with these musical elite having survived? My argument for this being that many feel that music is the one language/art that reaches everybody and has profound positive psychological effects.
Anyone else addicted to his fallout videos? I’ve only played FO3 and still watch. Actually, I watched an 8 hour video of a FO4 gameplay but never played it. I love these vids. And I’m very addicted.
This fault is one of the most tragic vaults of all, it was such a horrible waste. Zoe’s terminal in my opinion is one of the saddest in the game, it’s horrible that Vault Tec would do that to people.
I can't believe how much Bethesda put into this story. It's simply incredible. Thanks for showing how epic these stories are... this is such a great channel... thanks for the great content!!!!
Just had to pop by and leave a comment Oxhorn. I love what you have been doing here with the vaults. I'm not much of a gamer and when I do, I don't have the patience to spend the time on the lore in game. But it's fascinating stuff. Please keep making awesome videos that follow the stories of people long past. This is the first time that I have been immersed by the lore of a fallout game in spite of trying to play FO3, FO:NV and FO4. Thanks again and keep up the great work!
I miss the music from Fallout 3 so much!!!!!! Wish Bethesda/Inon would just allow it to be used in mods or even do a Creation Club soundtrack that included it.
so somewhere along the way, they changed their original plan of Vault 92 being a refuge for Musicians and Music, turning it into a giant white noise experimental petri dish, which ended up killing some of the Vault Dwellers, and turning most of the rest Batshit Crazy, with at least one person escaping. i believe in my heart that it was Hilda's daughter or grandaughter, and in the fear and panic to escape the vault, the Violin was left behind, now a couple gens later and we end up walking right into the petri dish.
I know this is a fallout 3 video, but since it's the most recent and I know you read all of the comments I'll write it here, your channel, lores and mods really inspired me and you made me want to buy fallout 4, you've been doing a flawless job, keep on the amazing work. ~Arthur
Wow I'm very confused now.... how is Agatha, Hilda's great great granddaughter if Hilda died in the vault.... she would of had to survive to have started a family. Unless she already had a kid but that's never mentioned... not too mention even if she did have a kid it would have been very unlikely for her to have made it out of that vault alone
Obviously, the details are a bit fuzzy, but the story is definitely that she got out, leaving her violin behind, but teaching her children and grandchildren how to build violins and play them. Also, from what we learn from the terminals, the vault was running for enough years for the vent system to completely corrode and deteriorate. Seems likely that she went in young, met someone on the inside, and escaped with them. For some reason, I recall thinking that the redhead mentioned in one terminal was her. Also, Ox did mention that one guy rallying the survivors to escape together. It's likely a group left the vault together, making a life outside after most of the radiation died down. Then again, if that really was Parker and Hilda dead in that room with the violin, then Hilda must have been older when she went into the vault, being forced to leave her kids behind. The kids survived and passed the tale down through the years.
@@ladylunaginaofgames40 Hilda had a daughter Mary who she used to talk to via mailed letters before the war. Mary had no musical talen and thus was not invited to live in Vault 92 unlike her mother. Mary lived on, had a daughter, and that daughter is Agatha.
I mean If most of the experiments were done willingly and we're for the betterment of life after the bombs fell it would make sense but it's done stupidly and for stuff that don't help anyone lol
@TheAngryDanishViking That’s not necessarily true, the whole point is that even the most innocuous sounding experiments can have profound unintended consequences. That’s what the Vault lore is intended to suggest.
mee I can't believe how gorgeous Fallout 3 is compared to the Fallout 4 art style. They really should have kept the same art style and improved on the game mechanics for Fallout 4. Its a great game but doesn't compare to Fallout 3. Only if there would be a Fallout 3 Special Edition that expands on the game and includes newer rendering extras and base machaics.
I see many questions about how Hilda could have possibly been Agatha's great-great-grandmother. Remember in episode 1 of this short series, Agatha told us that Hilda corresponded with her daughter Mary (Mary was Agatha's great-grand mother) by mail. They must have lived far apart, and this must have happened before the bombs dropped, as there was no mail system after the war. In those letters, Hilda told her daughter Mary that she had been invited into a Vault-Tec vault due to her musical talent. But we have no indication that Mary had any musical talent, and so she was not invited. When the bombs dropped, Hilda found refuge in Vault 92, but her daughter, Mary, was left outside like most people. Mary then went on to live the rest of her life, get married, and have children, without ever knowing what happened to her mother Hilda. She passed this story down to her child, who then passed it down to her child, Agatha.
So, Hilda was a mother before she entered Vault 92.
Oxhorn where’s the fallout 4 episodes
The symptoms of the crazies remind me of a Star Trek Next Gen episode where the crew are unable to achieve REM sleep which results in many crew members becoming murderously violent to the point where all crew members have to be incapacitated for their own and the ships safety with the exception of Data. When Dr. Malleous says the overseer was subjecting them in his sleep he may have made those most susceptible unable to achieve REM sleep hence why Zoe says she's getting sleepy. The Facts fit as a trance state and REM sleep are total opposites when it comes to brain wave activity and as Shown in many T.V shows like ST:NG, Agent Carter, and Sherlock it can have Detrimental affects.
Glad to see that you’re absolutely thorough, even outside of the videos.
Oxhorn, Hey... You should do a video that tells if Sturges knows he's a synth... I mean...

Real Tev Fallout 3 is better.
This story saddens me. Had Vault-Tec simply used Vault 92 as they said they were, the people of the Wasteland could have had newer songs.
Of course, Vault-Tec always have other plans experimenting on people.
ingasparrow I don’t need any newer songs
Vault-Tec is always doing some messed up stuff. I think you'd be hard pressed to find an innocent experiment of theirs.
With a big iron on his hiiiiip

So I would have to assume that the equipment emitted some type of frequency that I couldn't here or sense in anyway other than my tiredness later in the day.

THEY PLAYED US LIKE A DAMN F I D D L E

That was my reaction too. I guessing "Hildie" was into some kinky stuff.
Doesn't mean it had to go in her the bow or strings could of been used to rub more... sensitive spots in her body down there...
My conclusion, the problem occured because the subliminar messages where played during the night, disturbing the "subjects" slow-wave sleep phase. Without this people have a high tendecy for aggresion, coupled with the subliminar combat protocols, this created walking bombs just waiting for a trigger to explode.
Two years late but I have to say, I've known most of the lore on this vault through my own playthroughs but yet here I am 90% into the video before I even realised it. Love the way you narrate the playthrough, it really pulled me in. Subbed for sure great content.
Just wanted to tell you are doing a good job. Very exciting even just to listen to you narrating and I often turn your videos to fall asleep along with them.
John McFly me last night 😂 how much do i have to pay to get read bed time lore 😂
"What a waste. What a waste? What a fool!"

About the d minor thing, you can for example , adjust for d minor, you are still doing the same song, but you are using a diferent tune
You can simply just transpose the key
Dammit I’d just finished this vault then I watched this video and realised I missed a bunch of it, so now I need to adventure down into this horrible place once again. This vault was terrifying. Great video though btw
Yay long episode
Grievous Reborn I do prefer the longer vidoes while I'm at work
Pmartz3 same but at home as I can’t work yet
I seen ur comment on the live stream about Skyrim I recommend finishing the game with or without mods just enjoy the story 😊 the lore is crazy even deeper than fallout!
E X P A N D D O N G
Or Bethesda just didn't bother to get the correct info when they wrote Zoey's journal.
The fact you pronounced Haydn correctly makes me love this video so much more. A man of cilture, I see
47:29 I love Oxhorn's response to Parker's note. Just...greatly enjoyed that.
Love this guy
Its amazing how he and the community is such a big part of peoples lives now.
Who wouldn't?.
So many memories being a young lad playing Fallout 3, was my favourite game being young around 9 or so, such great storytelling and atmosphere
your checking both ways before crossing the road gave me a laugh :) at 0:29 - 0:30 made me giggle . that familiarity :)
You really thought about what happened in the vault, compared to me who just came in, listened and read everything, barely a thought, got the violin and left.
This skill and understanding of a story leads to an amazing output in telling the story. Amazing job Oxhorn, Amazing job indeed
Quick note: killing in cold blood means it's a calculated decision you take as supposed to killing in hot blood: killing out of rage, jealous etc, possibly regretting it later. That sounds more like what you're describing Zoe as.
"Is that a mirelurk? What is a mirelurk doing in a vault?"
I think the answer to this question is obvious.
A Vault...my God! It's the perfect place for a MIRELURK DEN!!
Headrock Applying for residency?
Headrock ummm visiting the misses
I guess vault dwellers taste better than wastelanders
12:17 How did you get that option to open the Overseer’s tunnel?
think about spectacle island in fallout 4 the sound for them to repel the mirlurks
Ad VICTORAM?
Really well done. I love that you are taking your time with this story. There is so much more to this one that I first realized!
Fun Fact: Vault 92's door was actually reused for Vault 22. It's just covered in Plants so it's hard to notice from a distance
Something I've noticed, we fund human skeletons all over the waste land, but we never find creature skeletons.
54 minute video yes
Rocky Hamaker I know right!
Not just 54 minutes, 54 minutes and 9 seconds!
BloodStorm Wolf ? 36 mins for me ??
Wall Nutt how?
Delta.01 nvm it was 3am and i was 36 mins in lmao
I love the videos because of how you explain each quest of Fallout and at the same time you show the gameplay
Any hint to when we will get to see... Gary?
Gaaaaaarrrry
Haha! Gary!
Darian Gaaary?
gaaaarrry? gaarryy!
Gaaaaaaary?
AHH GARRRYYY
Looking at this, this vault had an experiment for mind control using white noise which is impossible because white noise has no general effect on cognitive functions and there are two types of white noises that I know which are 65dB and 45dB.
Have you considered that this is fiction
I often wonder how Vault-tec garnered such devotion in their overseers. Even self preservation doesn't dissuade them from continuing an experiment.
Well having a cosy room in a apocalyptic bunker, lots of money pre-war and a sh!t ton of lies would make someone do this
Also, hissy fizzling sound of static the Mirelurks one weakness.
Bruh, if you have a Stradivarius, you better be good.
Vault 92 gave me a Dead Space vibe to it. It was dark, old, people started losing their minds, turning violent, the people in charge want to continue the source that is causing the incidents. Granted, people aren't turning into horrible monsters, but it's a close.
Excellent work, I've recently started getting into the Fallout Universe, and your work is great. Subbed immediately
35:53 when you gotta hit the word count on your essay
My only complaint, as someone with an audio engineering degree, for the script writers is that the term "white noise" refers to the sound of all frequencies played at the same volume. "Pink noise" is all the frequencies of the human hearing range played at the same volume. "low frequency white noise" is a bit of an oxymoron.
Hey it's vault tec we are dealing with here and they aren't exactly always 'expert scientifically minded'. They are a business and I mean... just look at how the medical industries compared to actual doctors tends to use that very well known icon for medicine. Stick with snake..... or rather the wrong-use of the hermes staff with twin snakes, rather than the stick wit ha singular snake entwined around it that is the symbol for the greek god of medicine.
Hence why Vault Tec is not really doing great science.
Like your channel. I like fallout 4 and I discovered your channel when I was looking into the lore.
Yes, he really inspired me to do my own series. He's really similar to how I am in Irl and I honestly stopped doing videos because I thought people would dislike that kind of person. It's amazing how Ox helps so many people get over a bad day. I lost my mother and grandmother during this time if year so He really helps focus on something else even when you don't wanna play any games and just a be bed borrito.

Yeah, I remember being like: I came for Fallout lore, but I found an Angel.
Commodore4eva
And so sorry about everything sir, I’ll definitely check out the channel. But you’re never alone :)
n bo People like 4 but some know what's better on their preference. I prefer NV.
no matter what fallout 4 will never be the best game
I've watched quite a few of your videos now, and I really enjoy them. Thank you for the quality content. Keep up the good work.
Mirelurk walk animation be like "Come at me, bro!"
The divergence definitely happened earlier than the 1950s.
I"ve often felt that out of all of the Vault-Tec Vault experiments, that this one was the most cruel. Imagine how much better the fallout world would've been with these musical elite having survived? My argument for this being that many feel that music is the one language/art that reaches everybody and has profound positive psychological effects.
Anyone else addicted to his fallout videos? I’ve only played FO3 and still watch. Actually, I watched an 8 hour video of a FO4 gameplay but never played it. I love these vids. And I’m very addicted.
47:30-ish Daaamn Hilda kept herself busy XD
I love how oxhorn makes i think improves of charon killing an unexpected bloatfly
Damn that is one huge vault....
How does oxhorn know SO MUCH not only about fallout but his knowledge about movies words music books and other things that I’ve never heard of
The password at the overseers Office (first note i think) looks like it spells Ulysses. ..
@39:06
"NEEEEEeeerrrrdddd!!!"
lol... Wow!
:)
Love ya Oxhorn :)
"That means something bad must have happened here" hasn't something bad happened at every. Vault. Ever.
Yep. Even in control vaults with living residents, it seems like there’s always something terrible happening
This fault is one of the most tragic vaults of all, it was such a horrible waste. Zoe’s terminal in my opinion is one of the saddest in the game, it’s horrible that Vault Tec would do that to people.
BEST NARRATOR EVER
His voice annoys me
i feel bad for the professor, unknowingly leading to the end of the vault
Oxhorn's reactions to sex and kink is priceless
the first channel i’ve ever watched an entire hour long video. and i love it
You have to do vault 87, and be sure to massacer little lamplight
Edward Richtofen You can't kill kids in fallout lmao
Paun George Eduard that's why we make killable kids mods lol
Edward Richtofen that's not concerning at all.
Don't you feel bad for killing kids?
Paun George Eduard Go visit little lamplight and you will feel how I do real quick
I can't believe how much Bethesda put into this story. It's simply incredible. Thanks for showing how epic these stories are... this is such a great channel... thanks for the great content!!!!
came for the vault story stayed for the narration
Just had to pop by and leave a comment Oxhorn. I love what you have been doing here with the vaults. I'm not much of a gamer and when I do, I don't have the patience to spend the time on the lore in game. But it's fascinating stuff. Please keep making awesome videos that follow the stories of people long past. This is the first time that I have been immersed by the lore of a fallout game in spite of trying to play FO3, FO:NV and FO4.
Thanks again and keep up the great work!
I miss the music from Fallout 3 so much!!!!!! Wish Bethesda/Inon would just allow it to be used in mods or even do a Creation Club soundtrack that included it.
so somewhere along the way, they changed their original plan of Vault 92 being a refuge for Musicians and Music, turning it into a giant white noise experimental petri dish, which ended up killing some of the Vault Dwellers, and turning most of the rest Batshit Crazy, with at least one person escaping.
i believe in my heart that it was Hilda's daughter or grandaughter, and in the fear and panic to escape the vault, the Violin was left behind, now a couple gens later and we end up walking right into the petri dish.
Why would pre-war / intra-war vault dwellers horde bottle caps?
its an isolated place,
where they can put em?
I know this is a fallout 3 video, but since it's the most recent and I know you read all of the comments I'll write it here, your channel, lores and mods really inspired me and you made me want to buy fallout 4, you've been doing a flawless job, keep on the amazing work.
~Arthur
Pretty sure Hilde had to have made it out of the vault somehow. Perhaps Parker was a bit of a player, and Zoe found him with another woman?
The white noise killing the mirelurks here is much like Spectacle Island in Fallout 4
soltar7 Surprised Oxhorn didn't mention it, honestly.
soltar7 It's a bit different. One simply drove them away. The other makes their heads pop. That's a helluva frequency.
Wow I'm very confused now.... how is Agatha, Hilda's great great granddaughter if Hilda died in the vault.... she would of had to survive to have started a family. Unless she already had a kid but that's never mentioned... not too mention even if she did have a kid it would have been very unlikely for her to have made it out of that vault alone
Obviously, the details are a bit fuzzy, but the story is definitely that she got out, leaving her violin behind, but teaching her children and grandchildren how to build violins and play them. Also, from what we learn from the terminals, the vault was running for enough years for the vent system to completely corrode and deteriorate. Seems likely that she went in young, met someone on the inside, and escaped with them.
For some reason, I recall thinking that the redhead mentioned in one terminal was her.
Also, Ox did mention that one guy rallying the survivors to escape together. It's likely a group left the vault together, making a life outside after most of the radiation died down.
Then again, if that really was Parker and Hilda dead in that room with the violin, then Hilda must have been older when she went into the vault, being forced to leave her kids behind. The kids survived and passed the tale down through the years.
Ox explained that Agatha had a daughter who wasn't admitted into the vault. All we can assume is the daughter survived and that's how we get Hilda
@@ladylunaginaofgames40 Hilda had a daughter Mary who she used to talk to via mailed letters before the war. Mary had no musical talen and thus was not invited to live in Vault 92 unlike her mother. Mary lived on, had a daughter, and that daughter is Agatha.
Man I love your videos. Always listen to them going to sleep
You know, from a purely amoral perspective, using the vaults for human expirementation is kinda brilliant.
Yeah but you can't really get the data from the experiments so it's kinda useless
But most of them are rather stupidly done and could have been done without harm to the vault dwellers.
I mean If most of the experiments were done willingly and we're for the betterment of life after the bombs fell it would make sense but it's done stupidly and for stuff that don't help anyone lol
@TheAngryDanishViking That’s not necessarily true, the whole point is that even the most innocuous sounding experiments can have profound unintended consequences. That’s what the Vault lore is intended to suggest.
18:40 that white noise is almost calming, i can see how people would fall for it
In my recent playthrough i stumbled into vault 92 by accident. Since then im unable to find Agatha...😅
everytime i lean close to the screen bc im too into this and you turn around and ur friend is there i get a spoopy jumpscare lmao
Your a bearded legend my friend.
3:56 “next to his RIGHT hand”, *right hand of player enters the screen*
I k ow it’s a mod but I found that particularly funny.
For how long did VaultTec actually be active after the bombs fell, not the vaults, i mean the whole company?
The fallout 4 mirelurks in fallout 3 look terrifying
Or the divergence may be due to a dev not paying attention in Music Appreciation 101.
The divergence is more like multiple pieces of time since there are things in our time that aren't around in fallout's time that were pre-WW2
I did not have the option to "open overseers tunnel" on the terminal in the overseers office.
Who else found them selfes starting new play throughs on fallout 3 and new vegas ?
mee I can't believe how gorgeous Fallout 3 is compared to the Fallout 4 art style. They really should have kept the same art style and improved on the game mechanics for Fallout 4. Its a great game but doesn't compare to Fallout 3. Only if there would be a Fallout 3 Special Edition that expands on the game and includes newer rendering extras and base machaics.
41:07 - "Even despite her lack of talent"
I found that way more entertaining than I should have..
