Wow! I was not expecting this much of a positive response from this video! I guess I'll go ahead and say now that I'd be crazy NOT to do another one of these challenges in Fallout: New Vegas so yeah, it's happening now. It's not gonna be for a while though as I've gotta get ready for my yearly Halloween in July event plus the vids I mentioned at the end of this one like Transformers and Pathologic 2. Also, please understand that there's no way I can fill a Mitten Squad-shaped hole in your hearts: no one can replace him and I'm not going to try. Challenge runs are a lot of fun and I'd like do do more of them every once in a while, but in no way am I just gonna start only doing those now. My love is still Immersive Sims and weird little horror games. But hey, I can balance those two things so I'm sure I can throw an occasional challenge run into the mix as a treat. Maybe like, one or two a year.
Hey man, take your time, this video was pretty fun to watch, and as for Mitten Squad, no one can replace him, no one will, and I don't think anyone is expecting you to replace Mitten Squad.
@@Cocaine_Santa True, I mainly bring it up because I want to be crystal clear about it after seeing a lot of Mitten-related talk in the comments. I don't wanna just ignore it and let it potentially snowball into something I don't intend.
@@Racing_Is_Not_An_Addiction Yeah, I *could* see this me trying to apply this to other games like Cyberpunk 2077 as was suggested in the comments, BUT I don't want to do this to death. If I just do the CA compliant challenge on every game it isn't special anymore; it's just a gimmick. After New Vegas I'd probably spend time working on a new, even sillier challenge ruleset. Hopefully my few remaining brain cells will be able to make something novel again in the year's time it will take to get around to that.
If a handgun is 50 years or older, it's automatically a c&r handgun and exempt from the roster, which every handgun would be 200+ years old, unless it's a newer pipe gun.
Fun fact, if it wasn't for the psychotic ramblings of legislators, the 'scary ar-15' is actually almost old enough to be considered "relics and curios" coming up in a few years.
Hilarious video! One note, “Dog” in fallout 4 actually *can* be named “Dogmeat” if you have him as your companion, then talk to Mama Murphy during the siege of the museum in Concord. Right after you talk to Preston and Sturges, talk to mama Murphy. If Dog is your companion, she’ll comment about how “Dogmeat” always finds good people to follow, and from then on his name will be Dogmeat.
Not concealable, but it's technically a demolition tool, so using it would be outside of it's intended use. It'd be like using a sledgehammer for self defense. Sure, it works, but you are at legal risk using it as such
As a writer, I wanna use that for one of my characters. Sounds perfect for a guy so desensitized to combat that he just sees it transactional at this point.
@@mitchellbarton7915 double bonus points if the person is a neutral party that switches sides based on what benefits them rather than for ideological reason (not dog whistling, I just like that type of character).
But does he count as a person? Like, in continental law (Hungary for example) legal capacity only begins at live birth. And well he is not really born... also being a "machine" or a "clone" is also interwsting since we generaly made it easy by outlawing them and that'sit.
You should have played as Nora/Female Sole Survivor because she was a lawyer, and would make the "I am not an attorney" disclaimer a layer of the funny.
Hate to be that guy but: Penal Code 399.5 is the California statute that makes it a crime for a person to own a dog that is trained to fight, attack or kill, provided that he knows the dog is dangerous and: the dog bites a person, on two separate occasions or more, or. the dog bites a person once and causes a substantial injury.
@@Fatahhcat Paul of Mittensquad, aye - if posts are made, then it's others within said squad that does. Though it's his iconic voice and being that we track back to the name. I can only guess that he wasn't the only one working under the banner (their youtube name)... but yeah, if any videos ever dropped then it wouldn't be by good ol' Paul. :( I miss him too, RIP.
I think it could be funny to do this challenge but have a mod in the background where if you do pick something up the entire ATF constantly raids and kills you and your settlements until you throw away the non-complaint gun lol.
Just here to say that Mama Murphy calls Dogmeat Dogmeat. You have to ask if he's her dog when she mentions him, but she responds with something like, "Dogmeat is his own man" and then implies that it's a good sign of character if he likes you.
@@exittieronehe does! In the Kellogg quest and also will say 'Hey, Dogmeat's hurt' if the doggo gets downed while all 3 of you are together. Really sweet tbh
I swear the player character can also call him Dogmeat at one point, maybe when dismissing or re-recruiting him? I remember being caught off guard seeing as I had assumed he was just “dog” in Fo4.
The Ruby Ridge guy was a PoS. Doesn't give the ATF the right to run down and kill women and children though. Just like how Waco having a whacko child loving doomsday cult didn't justify forcefully reclassifying them as a death cult much less saving the children from assault by IMMOLATION! They also could have gotten the guy they wanted at any time, especially since they were not just welcomed in, but the freak would make regular jogs.
@@jediknight1294 anytime you get shoes with laces you have to pay 200 per lace. Also, none of the MGs in the gun would be compliant. They are from after the law. You could however, if a male Character, say you could only use MGs when wearing the Minutemen armor, or a US military power armor. You could theoretically have been called back into service. You however could not store said weapon and ammo with the rest of your belongings.
You do realise that you, as a citizen of the state, are expected to be conversant of the laws that you yourself enacted? And that ignorance of a law is not a defence. That's pretty much the the whole of the law past Magna Carta.
@@Akheloios Then they can make the law readily available and human readable. But then they wouldn't be able to get away with the shit they want to (puninive slavery [allowed under US law] and loopholes for the rich).
I love that at the very beginning of the run the concept that gun laws only hurt people who follow laws and just serve to make criminals much more dangerous is so expressly demonstrated.
I love that while still in the spirit of the Cali challenge, Char immediately extended the barrle on spronglo and threw a stock on it... breaking the National Firearms Act.
I mean, if he demilled it and then reserialized it as a rifle with all the paperwork then it would be legal. I assume that fits into "doing the paperwork offscreen".
@Enderborn272 True True. Tbh, as fucked as Cali law is, it's hilarious to me that it's at least more logically consistent than the NFA. I mean, it doesn't work, but somewhere in all the mag bans and shit is at least a thought process rooted in limiting an active shooter's access to a semiauto with a decent mag. The NFA by comparison is like "Yeah, best I can do is make sure the kiddos are getting clapped by a 16" barrel. But can you imagine if it was a 13" barrel? 😱"@@Enderborn272
No, it is legal to convert pistols into rifles, as long as the barrel is 16 inches minimum. Rifles can not be converted into pistols without a sbr tax stamp.
@@Enderborn272 A pistol can be made into a rifle without issue, it's a rifle that *can't* be made into a pistol. This is going off federal law, California is probably different
@wolfgang_h3t unless something has changed, realistically only Hollywood can aquire NFA items in California. California requires a permit, and only gives them out to buddies.
14:06 You got into a high speed car crash right there. Cars are physics objects and deals damage based on relative velocity and weight on impact. Sprinting into a car is thus considered a ton of metal hitting you at decent speed, prop-killing you.
CHALLENGE Mode: Complete this challenge while obeying legislation on LASER devices, pressurized gas containers, high-energy industrial devices with EMI risk (like Gauss Guns and Plasma Weapons) and all OSHA regulations in settlement construction. NIGHTMARE mode: INCLUDE BUILDING LEGISLATION.
This reminded me of a Resident Evil 5 co-op run I did with a friend. I like to point out OSHA violations and health&safety risks when we play for fun and one of the most memorable things was a bulkhead door we found which could only be operated from one side. One side leads to a researchers room, the other to a kennel housing mutated dogs. The mechanism for opening/closing/locking the door was inside the kennel...
No matter what your opinion on gun laws is... I think everyone can appreciate laser laws. The first thing you need to know about poorly handled lasers- you can go blind just from the sideglow. So it is very easy to go with the idiot combo of blinded and then stumbling into the path of the beam.
@@lemeres2478 let the idiots fail. Only the strongest will survive. When we need "for external use only" warning on HAIR CURLING IRONS, I lose sympathy.
"I cannot afford to legally defend myself adequately but at least I'm extremely well hydrated" yeah I'm not familiar with california but sounds pretty accurate
California has been doing better with water availability on account of the recent wet and rainy/snowy winter seasons here, so the drought notices have been lifted, and if you're outside of the urban centers, there aren't any water conservation measures.
@@vxicepickxv It does exsist. It became the California Republic, or, as some call it, New Texas, because its officers gave guns away to defend themselves.
The minute of appreciation instead of a sponsorship is legitimately one of the most heartwarming things I've seen in a UA-cam video. Love the vibes dude :)
"Do you have any idea how expensive a WestLaw or LexisNexus subscription is?" Yes. Yes I do. I was a Paralegal Studies major for my first few years of college. I know JUST how bad it is, and I find it anti-citizen that ordinary people just straight up DO NOT HAVE ACCESS to the majority of the laws of the country they live it. And no, you cannot blame laywers as a whole, as they don't like it either. The ONLY people who like how pricey access to the law itself is are WestLaw, LexisNexus, and every politician (and potentially lobbyist) in the country.
I think an argument could be made that only laws whose text is readily and freely available should be enforceable. i.e. states that paywall the text of their laws (which could be seen as similar in function to a Poll Tax) would effectively invalidate the laws that they have paywalled. This may be a controversial opinion. edit: I'm aware that I specified state and not country. But historically the word "state" has been used to mean effectively the same thing as country/nation. Example: United States of America.
@@kevbu4 Sounds perfectly legit A paywalled law is such a copout idea, wonder why the country is not voting to open it up for the public. I'd even expect it to be used to hide illegitimate politics
In brazil, everyone has free access to any and all legislation by simply going to the fed gov website or their local municipality, including any and all daily changes Now then, that american hassle sounds like a possible loop hole, how can someone be expected to follow the law, if you need to pay an expensive subscription to have access to legislation?
Just pointing this out in case someone else hasn't already: Dogmeat is referred to as Dogmeat if you travel to Mama Murphy in the Museum of Freedom with Dogmeat in your party. And then he gains the name 'Dogmeat'. I thought this was well known by now, but I suppose not. The more you learn, though!
@@zgSH4DOW There are a lot of points in this video that suggest the creator is actually quite new to Fallout 4 as a whole, or isn't very familiar with the setting. Which is fine! I didn't mean to come off like a 'douche', but with how old the game is now, it genuinely caught me off guard that it wasn't better known.
@@SleepyMatt-zzz They can. As long as it has a fusion core installed, anyone can just hop into a vacant suit. My working theory is some jackass disseminated power armor training manuals en masse throughout the Commonwealth. Must have been on holotape, too, because literacy is not an obstacle in operating these things.
@@MHurley21 plot twist: power armor training is just "ok so you can see the controls here clearly, just hop in, aaaand good to go. yep. that's it. the old military just pretended they are complicated and dangerous to use in order to discourage theft, but they were designed to be extremely intuitive and simple to use in case local militias would need them in a worst case scenario level invasion"
What a first video from this guy to stumble across. Way too much research put into it, over an hour of content, a level of education added into it for real, a goddamn COOKING TUTORIAL in the middle of it. This man could put all the Theory channels to shame.
Yeah, it's a rule that every dog in fallout (unless it's rex) is named Dogmeat. I guess it was probably a famous dog in the fallout universe and now people just name their companion dogmeat (it's a refrence to an irl movie which i can't remember the name of, a boy and his dog or something)
Your character calls him Dogmeat while commanding him, Mama Murphy calls him Dogmeat, Valentine calls him Dogmeat, and a ton of companions refer to him as Dogmeat when you swap with him. I have no idea what he meant when he said no one calls him that in game 😭
Something tells me California might have a problem with a dude walking around with a massive sledgehammer with two tablesaw blades chained to it and electrified... Expecting to see a few new weapon legislations after they see this video!
I guess California is more memeable, But doing Boston/Mass laws in FO4 and Cali/NV for FONV could be "fun." New Vegas could be done a couple ways, but it would be torturous if you had to drop all your good stuff as soon as you enter NCR territory. Since there seems to be ongoing litigation over some of the laws in the past couple years, I'd go with the most restrictive iteration. Without going into too much detail, california defines "assault weapons" by a number of arbitrary features, but as it happens, most weapons in game are disqualified by minimum mag size or being innately full auto, so you don't really need to go into it. List of possibly legal weapons (Theoretically possible to posses and carry with requisite permits): - Revolvers - Flare gun - Hunting Rifles* - Lever Actions* - Manwell Rifle* - Double Barrel Shotguns** - Syringer (Probably? it is akin to dart guns used for animal control, although if you want to be strict, darts that do direct damage probably contain poisons/controlled substances) - Paddle Ball (lol) - All bladed weapons except switchblade, as long as they are not concealed*** - All blunt weapons - Boxing Gloves *Barrel >16" or overall length of >26" **Barrel >18" or overall length of >26", ***If you want to be really strict you could say that it is concealed if it is not currently equipped, which would basically make every edged weapon over 5" illegal and anything not a handgun, i.e. revolver. Iffy: - Pipe guns/Handmade Shotgun (homemade, so transfer would be illegal, but if you made the receiver from scratch and immediately modified it to legal spec) - Triple Barrel Handmade Shotgun (Iffy for being handmade as before, but also the ATF defines automatic as firing more than two rounds with a single pull of the trigger, so current multibarrel guns have a mechanism so all barrels must be fired in sequence, so as long as it meets ** requirements and only fires barrels in sequence it should be fine.) - Railway rifle (might be a destructive device, nobody really knows how it works.) - Cryolator (Same as above) - Gauss Rifles (Similar to above, but it probably would be legal as long as it adheres to *, being a rifle) - Flamer (Seeing as the fuel appears to be a gas, it could be considered a tool, like a blowtorch) - Most fist weapons probably fall under the category of Brass/Metallic knuckles, which are illegal Impossible to configure to legal requirements: - Combat Shotguns (Since it has a detachable magazine, it is a "Category 3 assault weapon" in california) - 10mm Pistol, all kinds (>10 round minimum mag size.) - Radium rifle (Radioactive) - Lasers/Plasma/Alien (Probably has output beyond civilian ownership, they'd find some way to arrest you for it, but most also have "assault weapon" features) Basically any outlier semiautomatic rifle configuration would break one or more of the "assault weapon" characteristics. Essentially a long winded yes, but you'll basically be pigeon holed into using fud guns and blunt force/melee, both of which are valid play styles for a modern Fallout. Fallout 1 & 2, would be much harder and a game like STALKER would likely be nearly impossible.
You're actually pretty close to my own considerations for a sequel run for this challenge run. The main reason I picked 4 was because I would be able to modify most weapons to fit the ruleset. FNV however has a lot of weapons that are fine out of the box, but there are also other things that I'll talk about towards the end of the video
I think a Sniper-barrel Laser or Plasma weapon MIGHT be legal if we assume the laws are updated to include lethal energy weapons (as in-universe, the ATF counterpart also regulates Lasers, but plasma weapons don't enter civilian use before the War and therefore probably don't have any laws tied to them). The Sniper barrel in particular should work wonders for this, since in both cases it lowers the "magazine" from 30 to 9 just on its own. This precludes going over the Maximized receiver, since the Overcharged receiver will boost you back up to 12 shots, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem for Survival difficulty. Would "microfusion cells" still count as ammo or would they just be batteries and thus unregulated? Though you would definitely have to get them as Rifles. The Laser Musket COULD be legal if it's purchased from Ronnie Shaw or manufactured from an Energy Weapon Forge. However, both of these are, of course, late enough in the game to make the Laser Musket of questionable utility though a six-crank one is still quite punchy.
@@CharlatanWonder you'd basically wind up doing a cowboy build. Fun fact, California's limit of 10 rounds is exempted for tubular magazines, so a fully upgraded Cowboy repeater (11 rounds? 12?) Would still be okay.
Fun fact, in Michigan, brass knuckles would not be allowed. There might be an exception if you're a bouncer or something like that but I'm not certain.
@CharlatanWonder hey, just wanted to say, as far as your settler problems at 1:16:00, just take out the fusion cores and store them in the workshop. Only specific NPCs can spawn with fusion cores, and everybody except followers needs them to work power armor, so it's kinda like taking the car keys out of a car. Second tip though, companions can use power armor without fusion cores
Dogmeat will only acquire the name if you talk to Mama Murphy in the museum of freedom the first time you meet her while he’s your companion. Weird, but that’s the only way he gets named Dogmeat
The game does refer to dogmeat by name, either talk to mama Murphy while you rescue them from concord and nick valentine calls him as such when you need to track kellogg's scent, either also changes his name in the hud from dog to dogmeat
I'm not going to lie, I'm new to this channel and the cooking section was so jarring. I thought auto play had changed my video for a moment. Absolutely worth as it got my attention to see my poor CA compliant citizen make himself a delicious sandwich I'm definitely not stealing the recipe for as I type this. Subbed
While I *do* have all the exact recipes as a patron reward, I always try to make it clear in the video itself so that people who are so inclined can reverse engineer the cooking segments for free. That being said, I forgot to show myself adding a heft squirt of siracha to the ground beef for flavor, don't forget that.
I'm surprised tire irons are allowed to be carried and not be considered "burglary tools" and combat knives aren't banned for being too long or something. Plus putting spikes into a baseball bat probably violates several California laws too.
Technically because of the raiders and other threats, in extenuating circumstances youre allowed to carry things like tire irons for self defense, so thats fine, but ya the baseball bat being modified is illegal (might even fall under the "billy club" ruling), and the knife is fine i think so long as its not concealed, which is defined as having at least the handle be visible.
@@irmatroll but not self-defense. Property equals not okay beating someone to death. Personal safety equals perfectly okay. And I think even though pets are considered property by the law, If you did beat someone to death for trying to kill your dog, the jury would never find you guilty. You just have to have a cute dog/Cat/pet.
thanks for that minute of appreciation. i was able to appreciate that today, my wii remote arrived and i got to play one of my favorite wii games for the first time in about 5 or 6 years
Yea Oxhorn did a video about settlement attacks, building a fortified settlement doesn't matter. In fact, if you fast travel and show up 'late' it will sometimes even have enemies already be spawned in non normal places, ike for example you can have a Deathclaw inside a building that it would have no way of getting inside the room.
@@ragabashmoon1551hence why you litter the settlement with turret towers that enemies cannot target easily, but they can target them at nearly any area~
Minute of Appreciation for my day: I harvested spearmint from my garden, rotated the dried sprigs out for the fresh ones, then made chocolate-mint iced tea for myself. Mm~... Edit: also, no, the next-nearest vendor is Trashcan Carla on the road to Starlight Drive-In.
@@julianlaresch6266I ended up with about 30 different energy level fusion cores because I kept reloading the Gatling Laser before emptying the whole “magazine”
Gauss rifle is not California compliant, it is legally an assault weapon. Semi auto, takes detachable magazines or it's equivalent, and has a pistol grip. Im calling the ATF, hide.dogmeat
As "one dude in a kitchen" myself, making fries is only as difficult as the tools available to you will make it. Get yourself a tall "bladed grate" and making fries will be as fast as you can wash the potatoes, get yourself a "vegetable slicer" and you can dice potatoes just as quickly. Fair warning, some of the difficulty you spare from the prep phase will be transferred to the cleaning phase, so I hope you like cleaning.
funnily enough, california listing a cannon as an example of a destructive device is the most ironic thing in existence. This is because one of the explicit examples given by the founding fathers for a weapon that shall never be limited was, in fact, a cannon. You are even explicitly noted as being able to use one in notarized legal documents.
> Be Californian > Buy Cannon > Cali government throws a hissy fit and fines > Sue the state > Watch it fly to Supreme Court > Obvious unconstitutional law is overruled by Supremes > Gavin cries > Cali is saved!!!
Do you have a source on that? While cannons were not explicitly illegal at the time and civilians could own one, I can’t find anything where the fathers explicitly cited a cannon as something “that shall never be limited”.
Been following this guy for years now and in all that time afaik he's never done a sponsorship and is the only full time UA-camr I've seen who doesn't.
California has a statute that allows the manufacture of homemade firearms that don’t have serial numbers but follow all aforementioned regulatory laws regarding them. That technically includes all… found pipe weapons that meet the states laws so, technically if you don’t use a pipe weapon but pick it up and modify it, you’re still in compliance… Technically 😂
So if I'm understanding this video correctly, if I were ever to visit California and aquire a sledgehammer, I would be the most powerful entity in the state?
Did you notice how all the raider gangs ignored the laws passed by the NCR and carried whatever gun they wanted to, only affecting Charlatan as a law abiding citizen?
@@timothymarzelli3874 Lot of criminals in this video, I bet they didn't buy and register their guns at licenced vendor. They still didn't stand a chance against the sledgehammer.
It's pretty cool how the tier list for enemies in the game changes depending on what type of challenge run you are doing. Ghouls are a pain to deal with in general but typically you wouldn't have such restrictions for what weapons to use against them. I find that interesting how it just changes the dynamic and approach to certain areas or quests. Very fun video, you now have a new subscriber!
@@cakeyeater7392 He didn't correct it; he got her to not fire her non-compliant firearm at anyone, but she's still carrying it around, so he's still an accomplice to possession.
@@cakeyeater7392 You cannot. I'm currrently in the process of my first playthrough of 4 (only played NV before and didn't even finish that in the slightest), and you can only give her a different weapon to use, not take hers. Even if you have her equip a different gun, her standard weapon will not appear in her inventory, thus not enabling you to take it.
Problem is you have a duty to retreat, so now your found guilty of first degree murder, many times over. Edit: In my head i mixed California and other states like newyork that have duty to retreat. Surprisingly California has "Stand your ground" laws. I was thinking they had a similar law to newyorks penal code 35.15 subsection 2A. (The irony is not lost on me)
@@nisonatic Indeed, in fact their fucktarded 10 round capacity bullshit is predicated on statistics that say something like most self defense cases involve the defendant only firing and average 2.2 rounds (and that is how you know the statistic is bullshit, you can't fire 0.2 bullets, you fired a round or you didn't, that kind of surface-level analysis is heavily biased) so why would you need more than 10? I couldn't possibly think of _any_ reason, except oh I don't know the fact there have been instances of people being shot over 10 times and still moving for minutes even surviving. They like to point out that 10 rounds means a shooter would need to reload more thus giving time to escape but forget that criminals don't follow the law so now you have criminals with 30+ rounds meanwhile a law-abiding citizen only has 10+1 if they carry chambered, 10 empty chamber. It is so damn paradoxical and lawmakers have their heads too far up their asses to realize how fucking stupid their reasoning is. Never mind the fact they have been told repeatedly by several supreme court judges that there is no history of laws limiting capacity of detachable magazines, if fact the other states that have had such laws have had their restrictions deemed unconstitutional and the only reason California is still getting away with it is a technicality that keeps happening. Unfortunately only 3 judges at the time had their heads out of their asses so it failed to have a majority vote (it wasn't ruled either way, there was no consensus and it will go again probably this year given it goes before the court basically every fucking year) So yeah, fuck California's entire government, the whole thing sucks not just their BS gun laws made by people who have never touched grass in their life.
5:39 Man, I'm crying now. I was honestly expecting a "HAHA, you fucking FOOL! RAID SHADOW LEGENDS" cut halfway in. It's so nice to see someone being genuine for once and not just making moneygrab content. Thank you.
@@sentenza5766 must be registered. Or modified to compliance, such as a maglock, or a fixed stock with no pistol grip, bayonet lug, or flash hider, or modified to be bolt action.

Honestly it’s one of Bethesda’s strong suits. That no matter your build, as long as you are actually building towards something, you will be powerful by the end of the game.
@@metronicmagician1816 That's really not a strong suit, it's just very casual game design philosophy. Pretty much any game not explicitly designed to keep challenging the player will end up in that situation, whether it's Minecraft, Skyrim, or Stardew Valley.
@@userequaltoNull I’m going to guess you’ve never played Skyrim on anything but easy then cause that game can be annoyingly difficult on harder settings. Besides fallout 4 survival (which is what this play through is on) is incredibly challenging. Seriously game adds so many extra hurdles and roadblocks that actively challenge you, and the damage taken/received makes the game very difficult while not just being a damage sponge. Hell you saw the ghouls 2 tap this guy throughout the entire play through. This game is difficult if you choose a harder difficulty. It’s just Bethesda’s way of making games that you will eventually be god incarnate by the end because they want you to feel powerful. If you don’t believe me to start up a survival play through, try to get to Diamond city, and take now of how difficult that can be.
@@metronicmagician1816 Skyrim is nowhere near as difficult as you're making out to be. There are hundreds of challenge run on Legendary and Survival that prove this. Skyrim can and WILL hold your hand through the easiest of quest objectives with quest markers and essential companions who will sometimes just randomly join you cos the quest demands it. Companions that get the same damage scaling and spongy health bars as the enemies, by the way. Fallout 4 is much the same. Try Morrowind if you want a challenge.
Damn, that little intermission before the gameplay was so sweet and refreshing, I was fully expecting an add read, but the genuine and uplifting little rant was so wonderful. Deffinently subscribing, what a wonderful attitude
That’s intentional. Cali doesn’t want you to buy guns. They still made that you buy a gun there. Even if it is a trans gun. A firearm that identifies as a club.
@@MrRedpanda2442 they didn't "try" anything, they literally classified a string as a machine gun because it was possible to tie it around a firearm such that it kept firing. Then they imprisoned a man for selling a sheet-metal credit card with an engraving on it. Oh yeah, then they sent a shit ton of guns to the mexican cartels in Fast & Furious. Then there was the strange oddity that they didn't seem to ever investigate anyone for the whole "we left afganistan and gave the taliban billions of dollars of world class armaments" thing even though a whole hell of a lot of firearms and explosives illegally changed hands there. (yes, I'm aware that wouldn't technically be in their jurisdiction, I'm making a point about the hypocrisy of a government that literally gives the taliban billions of dollars worth of world class weapons saying you can't own a rifle with a magazine) Oh, right, then there was that time that they seem to have not actually read the NFA, because if they did they'd know that the definition of a machine gun, as defined by law, is that it must fire several rounds via a "single function of the trigger", yet a ideal state-machine like the FRT where the entire gun's state is completely reset between each round, is a machine gun to them. Oh yeah, and for the record, by their own rules STL files are machine guns too. If the FRT is a machine gun, and *_anything_* that can be readily converted or be readily used to convert another weapon to a machine gun is, itself, a machine gun, that means an .STL file for the supersafety is, itself, a machine gun... *_YOU WOULDN'T DOWNLOAD A MACHINE GUN_*
FYI, the Obrez is just a shortened Mosin, not a precursor or manufacturing defect, nor an austerity gun. I guess in soviet russia, gangsters who got their hands on war surplus must have decided to cut them down for concealment, and they just became a sort of symbol for extremely scuffed "hood mods". In reality, the lack of barrel length means the cartridge performs much worse, you have to deal with yet-unburnt propellant flashing into a huze muzzle fireball, while the bullet itself travels much slower.
There are very few weapons that are not compliant with Oklahoma weapon laws. Nukes, mines/grenades, and machine guns made after 1986 would all I can think of off the top of my head.
@@DH-xw6jp grenades are legal. You just have to register every explosice device and its. A bunch of bullshit and its possible for them to just deny you.

Carla is closer than Trudy and about the same distance as Abernathy. But Abernathy almost never sells more than one weapon whereas Carla will have a selection. BUT, Covenant has a doctor and crops that can be picked and planted at home, and water, and a free full bed, and sometimes an armor dealer. So Concord is the best choice for the first location to make a run at.
There was a gang busted in the Bay Area recently for assault. Guess what police found at their residence. Firearms modified for automatic fire, 30+ round magazines, home assembled firearms, stolen firearms, illegally purchased firearms. About two dozen. I’m thinking that I should go sell bridges to people arguing on social media that gun control in California works.
California Penal Code 459.5 describes the crime of shoplifting as entering an open business during their normal hours with intent to steal merchandise valued at $950 or less. shoplifting is always a misdemeanor crime and punishable by up to six months in a county jail and fine up to $1,000, unless the defendant has one of more prior convictions. Crazy what a single Google search can show you!
@@stephenschuster9929 wow, it's almost like petty crime gets overlooked all the time and everywhere because devoting manpower and attention towards people who, very likely, are suffering from poor material conditions as is would be inefficient and a bad look. Like, if you're already gonna have a system that makes being poor miserable, the least you can do is not make it that overt.
fun fact if you were to do this with new jersey laws, you actually wouldnt be allowed to carry any weapons at all without a "legal reason" for it. Self defense is not considered a legal reason in new jersey. This is why having a swiss army knife(or anything that could be used as a weapon) in your pocket while on a walk is a crime punishable for up to 5 years in jail. Oh also slingshots are completely banned here for some reason lol.
In my local area of Ohio it's very similar. Simplified, something along the lines of carrying in self defense implies premeditated intent on harm which MIGHT not be equal to the level of assault.
Wow you deserve a prize. “🤓 well technically if you’re extremely pedantic and ignore the fact that the standard capacity magazines already exist and making a lower capacity after that fact wouldn’t change the fact that the standard magazine still isn’t a high capacity magazine”
51:50 i believe that is actually saying that antique cannons are exempt from the destructive device law. Its a bit of a word salad, but it makes sense that the state law would also be in accordance with the us federal law on destructive devices, which creates exemptions for shotguns, some specialty big game rifles, and antique ballistic weapons of any kind.
If the projectiles explode on impact those would be illegal, so if someone wants to use it in a run they may need to fix that with a mod if no non explosive cannonbals are avaliable in the game.
Reminds me of the famous anecdote of some private ship owner writing a letter asking if naval cannons were covered under 2a, to which they responded "well of course it is!" If I had a time machine, the one thing I would have told the founding fathers is *FOR GOD'S SAKE BE MORE EXPLICIT AND CONCISE* - they just had to go all fancy with the words with things like "well regulated" and "shall not be infringed" so it completely flew over everyone's heads.
@Coconut-219 the thing is that those words were not fancy at the time, and we still know exactly what they mean. Those who wish to attack it would still keep doing so, even if a few words were changed.
@@shredgordon3240Not illegal, even in California you just need the right permit to make and have destructive devices, likely along with federal laws. Outside of California you just need to register each explosive with the ATF, so every single round would need its own paperwork. So not illegal, but a really long and boring process. But of course there’s no way to get said permit or documents within a post apocalyptic video game, so you could just use your own head canon to wait an in-game month or other amount of time and flip a coin to see whether you get the permit, and then do a similar process before buying or making more.
I am sure CA has a plethora of laws overseeing scrapping houses, farming, wells and even pets, especially pets like dogmeat. Fun video, I laughed all the way through!
No, thank you! I don't mean this in a disrespectful manner, but don't hold yourself to the view count as there is a Fallout hype wave. Regardless, you're hilarious, entertaining and dedicated to what you do. I love it and you've gained a sub! 🤌
It’s a really good video and I’m definitely subscribing to see what you do in the future. I find rule lawyering in challenge runs to be extremely entertaining and the video’s presentation, comedy, and script were all amazing. Great job dude and I hope to see more of you in the future.
Loved the rules lawyering, loved the challenge, loved the death count, loved the pastrami burger. Hard Subscribe! Only thing... you kind of did this run using FO4's utterly broken melee system. How about you do it again with JUST GUNS? 😂
Wow! I was not expecting this much of a positive response from this video! I guess I'll go ahead and say now that I'd be crazy NOT to do another one of these challenges in Fallout: New Vegas so yeah, it's happening now. It's not gonna be for a while though as I've gotta get ready for my yearly Halloween in July event plus the vids I mentioned at the end of this one like Transformers and Pathologic 2.
Also, please understand that there's no way I can fill a Mitten Squad-shaped hole in your hearts: no one can replace him and I'm not going to try. Challenge runs are a lot of fun and I'd like do do more of them every once in a while, but in no way am I just gonna start only doing those now. My love is still Immersive Sims and weird little horror games. But hey, I can balance those two things so I'm sure I can throw an occasional challenge run into the mix as a treat. Maybe like, one or two a year.
Hey man, take your time, this video was pretty fun to watch, and as for Mitten Squad, no one can replace him, no one will, and I don't think anyone is expecting you to replace Mitten Squad.
@@Cocaine_Santa True, I mainly bring it up because I want to be crystal clear about it after seeing a lot of Mitten-related talk in the comments. I don't wanna just ignore it and let it potentially snowball into something I don't intend.
The California Legal idea is a really fascinating idea, I wonder how many different games it could work in... Far Cry, GTA... what a fun idea this is
@@Racing_Is_Not_An_Addiction Yeah, I *could* see this me trying to apply this to other games like Cyberpunk 2077 as was suggested in the comments, BUT I don't want to do this to death. If I just do the CA compliant challenge on every game it isn't special anymore; it's just a gimmick. After New Vegas I'd probably spend time working on a new, even sillier challenge ruleset. Hopefully my few remaining brain cells will be able to make something novel again in the year's time it will take to get around to that.
Good to know, but don't burn yourself out
If a handgun is 50 years or older, it's automatically a c&r handgun and exempt from the roster, which every handgun would be 200+ years old, unless it's a newer pipe gun.
Fun fact, if it wasn't for the psychotic ramblings of legislators, the 'scary ar-15' is actually almost old enough to be considered "relics and curios" coming up in a few years.
if it's 200+ years old, it is legally an antique and no longer counts as a firearm, even if it works

One note, “Dog” in fallout 4 actually *can* be named “Dogmeat” if you have him as your companion, then talk to Mama Murphy during the siege of the museum in Concord. Right after you talk to Preston and Sturges, talk to mama Murphy. If Dog is your companion, she’ll comment about how “Dogmeat” always finds good people to follow, and from then on his name will be Dogmeat.
Also, his name changes during the quest you take to go to fort Hagen for Kellogg’s cereal

I love that at the very beginning of the run the concept that gun laws only hurt people who follow laws and just serve to make criminals much more dangerous is so expressly demonstrated.
I love that while still in the spirit of the Cali challenge, Char immediately extended the barrle on spronglo and threw a stock on it... breaking the National Firearms Act.
I mean, if he demilled it and then reserialized it as a rifle with all the paperwork then it would be legal. I assume that fits into "doing the paperwork offscreen".
@Enderborn272 True True. Tbh, as fucked as Cali law is, it's hilarious to me that it's at least more logically consistent than the NFA. I mean, it doesn't work, but somewhere in all the mag bans and shit is at least a thought process rooted in limiting an active shooter's access to a semiauto with a decent mag.
The NFA by comparison is like "Yeah, best I can do is make sure the kiddos are getting clapped by a 16" barrel. But can you imagine if it was a 13" barrel? 😱"@@Enderborn272
No, it is legal to convert pistols into rifles, as long as the barrel is 16 inches minimum. Rifles can not be converted into pistols without a sbr tax stamp.
@@Enderborn272 A pistol can be made into a rifle without issue, it's a rifle that *can't* be made into a pistol. This is going off federal law, California is probably different

14:06 You got into a high speed car crash right there. Cars are physics objects and deals damage based on relative velocity and weight on impact. Sprinting into a car is thus considered a ton of metal hitting you at decent speed, prop-killing you.

I like to point out OSHA violations and health&safety risks when we play for fun and one of the most memorable things was a bulkhead door we found which could only be operated from one side.

"Do you have any idea how expensive a WestLaw or LexisNexus subscription is?"
Yes. Yes I do. I was a Paralegal Studies major for my first few years of college. I know JUST how bad it is, and I find it anti-citizen that ordinary people just straight up DO NOT HAVE ACCESS to the majority of the laws of the country they live it. And no, you cannot blame laywers as a whole, as they don't like it either. The ONLY people who like how pricey access to the law itself is are WestLaw, LexisNexus, and every politician (and potentially lobbyist) in the country.
I think an argument could be made that only laws whose text is readily and freely available should be enforceable.
i.e. states that paywall the text of their laws (which could be seen as similar in function to a Poll Tax) would effectively invalidate the laws that they have paywalled.
This may be a controversial opinion.
edit: I'm aware that I specified state and not country. But historically the word "state" has been used to mean effectively the same thing as country/nation.
Example: United States of America.

Either then, or after meeting the minute men since mama Murphy will say his name to you without you talking to her.
Yeah, it's a rule that every dog in fallout (unless it's rex) is named Dogmeat. I guess it was probably a famous dog in the fallout universe and now people just name their companion dogmeat (it's a refrence to an irl movie which i can't remember the name of, a boy and his dog or something)
Your character calls him Dogmeat while commanding him, Mama Murphy calls him Dogmeat, Valentine calls him Dogmeat, and a ton of companions refer to him as Dogmeat when you swap with him.

Doesn't California have a body armor law too?
Something tells me California might have a problem with a dude walking around with a massive sledgehammer with two tablesaw blades chained to it and electrified...
Expecting to see a few new weapon legislations after they see this video!
I thought that was the British problem.
I guess California is more memeable, But doing Boston/Mass laws in FO4 and Cali/NV for FONV could be "fun." New Vegas could be done a couple ways, but it would be torturous if you had to drop all your good stuff as soon as you enter NCR territory.
Since there seems to be ongoing litigation over some of the laws in the past couple years, I'd go with the most restrictive iteration. Without going into too much detail, california defines "assault weapons" by a number of arbitrary features, but as it happens, most weapons in game are disqualified by minimum mag size or being innately full auto, so you don't really need to go into it.
List of possibly legal weapons (Theoretically possible to posses and carry with requisite permits):
- Revolvers
- Flare gun
- Hunting Rifles*
- Lever Actions*
- Manwell Rifle*
- Double Barrel Shotguns**
- Syringer (Probably? it is akin to dart guns used for animal control, although if you want to be strict, darts that do direct damage probably contain poisons/controlled substances)
- Paddle Ball (lol)
- All bladed weapons except switchblade, as long as they are not concealed***
- All blunt weapons
- Boxing Gloves
*Barrel >16" or overall length of >26"
**Barrel >18" or overall length of >26",
***If you want to be really strict you could say that it is concealed if it is not currently equipped, which would basically make every edged weapon over 5" illegal and anything not a handgun, i.e. revolver.
Iffy:
- Pipe guns/Handmade Shotgun (homemade, so transfer would be illegal, but if you made the receiver from scratch and immediately modified it to legal spec)
- Triple Barrel Handmade Shotgun (Iffy for being handmade as before, but also the ATF defines automatic as firing more than two rounds with a single pull of the trigger, so current multibarrel guns have a mechanism so all barrels must be fired in sequence, so as long as it meets ** requirements and only fires barrels in sequence it should be fine.)
- Railway rifle (might be a destructive device, nobody really knows how it works.)
- Cryolator (Same as above)
- Gauss Rifles (Similar to above, but it probably would be legal as long as it adheres to *, being a rifle)
- Flamer (Seeing as the fuel appears to be a gas, it could be considered a tool, like a blowtorch)
- Most fist weapons probably fall under the category of Brass/Metallic knuckles, which are illegal
Impossible to configure to legal requirements:
- Combat Shotguns (Since it has a detachable magazine, it is a "Category 3 assault weapon" in california)
- 10mm Pistol, all kinds (>10 round minimum mag size.)
- Radium rifle (Radioactive)
- Lasers/Plasma/Alien (Probably has output beyond civilian ownership, they'd find some way to arrest you for it, but most also have "assault weapon" features)
Basically any outlier semiautomatic rifle configuration would break one or more of the "assault weapon" characteristics.
Essentially a long winded yes, but you'll basically be pigeon holed into using fud guns and blunt force/melee, both of which are valid play styles for a modern Fallout. Fallout 1 & 2, would be much harder and a game like STALKER would likely be nearly impossible.
You're actually pretty close to my own considerations for a sequel run for this challenge run. The main reason I picked 4 was because I would be able to modify most weapons to fit the ruleset. FNV however has a lot of weapons that are fine out of the box, but there are also other things that I'll talk about towards the end of the video
I think a Sniper-barrel Laser or Plasma weapon MIGHT be legal if we assume the laws are updated to include lethal energy weapons (as in-universe, the ATF counterpart also regulates Lasers, but plasma weapons don't enter civilian use before the War and therefore probably don't have any laws tied to them). The Sniper barrel in particular should work wonders for this, since in both cases it lowers the "magazine" from 30 to 9 just on its own. This precludes going over the Maximized receiver, since the Overcharged receiver will boost you back up to 12 shots, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem for Survival difficulty. Would "microfusion cells" still count as ammo or would they just be batteries and thus unregulated? Though you would definitely have to get them as Rifles.
The Laser Musket COULD be legal if it's purchased from Ronnie Shaw or manufactured from an Energy Weapon Forge. However, both of these are, of course, late enough in the game to make the Laser Musket of questionable utility though a six-crank one is still quite punchy.
@@CharlatanWonder you'd basically wind up doing a cowboy build. Fun fact, California's limit of 10 rounds is exempted for tubular magazines, so a fully upgraded Cowboy repeater (11 rounds? 12?) Would still be okay.
Fun fact, in Michigan, brass knuckles would not be allowed. There might be an exception if you're a bouncer or something like that but I'm not certain.
@CharlatanWonder hey, just wanted to say, as far as your settler problems at 1:16:00, just take out the fusion cores and store them in the workshop. Only specific NPCs can spawn with fusion cores, and everybody except followers needs them to work power armor, so it's kinda like taking the car keys out of a car. Second tip though, companions can use power armor without fusion cores
Dogmeat will only acquire the name if you talk to Mama Murphy in the museum of freedom the first time you meet her while he’s your companion. Weird, but that’s the only way he gets named Dogmeat
Incorrect. You also learn his name when Nick Valentine calls him over to track down Kelogg.

I'm surprised tire irons are allowed to be carried and not be considered "burglary tools" and combat knives aren't banned for being too long or something. Plus putting spikes into a baseball bat probably violates several California laws too.
Technically because of the raiders and other threats, in extenuating circumstances youre allowed to carry things like tire irons for self defense, so thats fine, but ya the baseball bat being modified is illegal (might even fall under the "billy club" ruling), and the knife is fine i think so long as its not concealed, which is defined as having at least the handle be visible.
I actually think wrapping a baseball bat in barbed wire and walking around in public with it is illegal in most of the US.
@@cutthroatink1590bludgeoning weapons are illegal in California. No baseball bats. You can get arrested for using one in home defense.

Nice door at the Castle. The bad part about the Defend the Castle quest is that the enemies spawn inside the Castle.
Yea Oxhorn did a video about settlement attacks, building a fortified settlement doesn't matter.

funnily enough, california listing a cannon as an example of a destructive device is the most ironic thing in existence. This is because one of the explicit examples given by the founding fathers for a weapon that shall never be limited was, in fact, a cannon.

It's pretty cool how the tier list for enemies in the game changes depending on what type of challenge run you are doing. Ghouls are a pain to deal with in general but typically you wouldn't have such restrictions for what weapons to use against them.

Having endurance as a dump stat in survival is crazy
Problem is you have a duty to retreat, so now your found guilty of first degree murder, many times over.
Edit: In my head i mixed California and other states like newyork that have duty to retreat. Surprisingly California has "Stand your ground" laws. I was thinking they had a similar law to newyorks penal code 35.15 subsection 2A. (The irony is not lost on me)
@@nisonatic Indeed, in fact their fucktarded 10 round capacity bullshit is predicated on statistics that say something like most self defense cases involve the defendant only firing and average 2.2 rounds (and that is how you know the statistic is bullshit, you can't fire 0.2 bullets, you fired a round or you didn't, that kind of surface-level analysis is heavily biased) so why would you need more than 10? I couldn't possibly think of _any_ reason, except oh I don't know the fact there have been instances of people being shot over 10 times and still moving for minutes even surviving.
They like to point out that 10 rounds means a shooter would need to reload more thus giving time to escape but forget that criminals don't follow the law so now you have criminals with 30+ rounds meanwhile a law-abiding citizen only has 10+1 if they carry chambered, 10 empty chamber. It is so damn paradoxical and lawmakers have their heads too far up their asses to realize how fucking stupid their reasoning is. Never mind the fact they have been told repeatedly by several supreme court judges that there is no history of laws limiting capacity of detachable magazines, if fact the other states that have had such laws have had their restrictions deemed unconstitutional and the only reason California is still getting away with it is a technicality that keeps happening.
Unfortunately only 3 judges at the time had their heads out of their asses so it failed to have a majority vote (it wasn't ruled either way, there was no consensus and it will go again probably this year given it goes before the court basically every fucking year)
So yeah, fuck California's entire government, the whole thing sucks not just their BS gun laws made by people who have never touched grass in their life.

@@metronicmagician1816 That's really not a strong suit, it's just very casual game design philosophy. Pretty much any game not explicitly designed to keep challenging the player will end up in that situation, whether it's Minecraft, Skyrim, or Stardew Valley.
@@userequaltoNull I’m going to guess you’ve never played Skyrim on anything but easy then cause that game can be annoyingly difficult on harder settings. Besides fallout 4 survival (which is what this play through is on) is incredibly challenging.

Hell you saw the ghouls 2 tap this guy throughout the entire play through. This game is difficult if you choose a harder difficulty. It’s just Bethesda’s way of making games that you will eventually be god incarnate by the end because they want you to feel powerful. If you don’t believe me to start up a survival play through, try to get to Diamond city, and take now of how difficult that can be.
@@metronicmagician1816
Skyrim is nowhere near as difficult as you're making out to be. There are hundreds of challenge run on Legendary and Survival that prove this. Skyrim can and WILL hold your hand through the easiest of quest objectives with quest markers and essential companions who will sometimes just randomly join you cos the quest demands it. Companions that get the same damage scaling and spongy health bars as the enemies, by the way. Fallout 4 is much the same.
Try Morrowind if you want a challenge.

Then there was the strange oddity that they didn't seem to ever investigate anyone for the whole "we left afganistan and gave the taliban billions of dollars of world class armaments" thing even though a whole hell of a lot of firearms and explosives illegally changed hands there. (yes, I'm aware that wouldn't technically be in their jurisdiction, I'm making a point about the hypocrisy of a government that literally gives the taliban billions of dollars worth of world class weapons saying you can't own a rifle with a magazine) Oh, right, then there was that time that they seem to have not actually read the NFA, because if they did they'd know that the definition of a machine gun, as defined by law, is that it must fire several rounds via a "single function of the trigger", yet a ideal state-machine like the FRT where the entire gun's state is completely reset between each round, is a machine gun to them. Oh yeah, and for the record, by their own rules STL files are machine guns too.

FYI, the Obrez is just a shortened Mosin, not a precursor or manufacturing defect, nor an austerity gun.
I guess in soviet russia, gangsters who got their hands on war surplus must have decided to cut them down for concealment, and they just became a sort of symbol for extremely scuffed "hood mods".
In reality, the lack of barrel length means the cartridge performs much worse, you have to deal with yet-unburnt propellant flashing into a huze muzzle fireball, while the bullet itself travels much slower.
Obrez's are actually pre-soviet - handguns were in short supply in the Revolution, so something at least somewhat concealable was better than nothing
The main reason for Obrez rifles is because pistols weren't available to most people in the Soviet Union, so people made their own.

51:50 i believe that is actually saying that antique cannons are exempt from the destructive device law. Its a bit of a word salad, but it makes sense that the state law would also be in accordance with the us federal law on destructive devices, which creates exemptions for shotguns, some specialty big game rifles, and antique ballistic weapons of any kind.
If the projectiles explode on impact those would be illegal, so if someone wants to use it in a run they may need to fix that with a mod if no non explosive cannonbals are avaliable in the game.
Reminds me of the famous anecdote of some private ship owner writing a letter asking if naval cannons were covered under 2a, to which they responded "well of course it is!"
If I had a time machine, the one thing I would have told the founding fathers is *FOR GOD'S SAKE BE MORE EXPLICIT AND CONCISE* - they just had to go all fancy with the words with things like "well regulated" and "shall not be infringed" so it completely flew over everyone's heads.
@Coconut-219 the thing is that those words were not fancy at the time, and we still know exactly what they mean. Those who wish to attack it would still keep doing so, even if a few words were changed.
@@shredgordon3240Not illegal, even in California you just need the right permit to make and have destructive devices, likely along with federal laws. Outside of California you just need to register each explosive with the ATF, so every single round would need its own paperwork. So not illegal, but a really long and boring process. But of course there’s no way to get said permit or documents within a post apocalyptic video game, so you could just use your own head canon to wait an in-game month or other amount of time and flip a coin to see whether you get the permit, and then do a similar process before buying or making more.
