    Thanks for watching guys and honestly I got to say…Patrolling the Mojave Almost Makes You Wish For a Nuclear Winter!
    Also I messed up The Lone Wanderer was what the F3 protagonist was called, not the one in F1. Small mistake but very annoying for me!

    I love the NCR, and the general idea behind west coast Fallout settings - after 200 years, the civilization there is rebuilding, and there are actual nations making their first steps. There's nothing like that in east coast based Fallouts.

    • @macdeus2601

      The Black Isle/Obsidian games have really good writing, including actual progression of a big, overarching story from one game to the next.
      (In Fallout 1, California is pretty much in a state of anarchy, with no real civilization beyond a crude city-state level, but in Fallout 2 and New Vegas, you see how the efforts of the previous game's characters to rebuild civilization are actually progressing, and the world is slowly recovering, providing a sense that the events of each game's story actually meant something.)
      The Bethesda games... well, they don't. They aren't like that.

      The east has their reasons
      In Fallout 3 we learn that no one actually can do anything because of the lack of clean water
      And fallout 4 has the excuse of the institute doing it's shenanigans: murdering the cpg, kidnapping, etc

    Real quick, elder Elijah wasn’t the only one to escape Helios, as a matter of fact, the current leader elder macnamara was made elder because of his heroics in evacuating after they had lost Elijah.

    Thanks for the history of the NCR, definitely a favorite faction of mine. A classic example of a flawed society, meaning well, but taking drastic actions to secure their goals. However, it is in the NCR's reach to to achieve a greater good, albeit only if leadership improves. It is also the fact that they are practically the only faction with both the power and commitment to improve the lives of those within their boarders. Most other factions either lack strength or any moral grounds to do so.
    Again, much thanks and I hope to see more of your videos in the future.
    For The Republic.

      @goreMagala ngl I might've overreacted a bit. It's just that there are a few inconsistencies like how did the ncr fall when they had other city's and how come shady sands is way smaller and in a completely diffrent location (from what I heard its where the boneyard would be)
      The main thing that has people saying this is the chalkboard in vault 4 how it says shady sands fell in 2277 (first battle of hoover damm is also that year and new vegas takes place 2281)
      So either a: it isn't cannon or b: someone fucked up in set design and other inconsistencies can be summed up to lack of resarch
      It's sad to see cause I really liked the show and other people are calling it dog shit over what could be just a mistake in set design

    Can we all give a sincere thanks to the developers and writers of Fallout 1, 2 and New Vegas especially? They've given us a timeless game that will constantly be poured over, researched, mudded and revered for time everlasting. I'm not sure you can assign a price to such a game, let alone have such a phenomenon recreated by today's AAA companies. Other similar games (albeit with lower popularity) are oldies too, like Deus Ex and Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. But sadly, the AAAs have no reason to recreate such masterpieces, even if they knew how to, because they're never the most profitable. It's the same thing with cult classic movies that rise to the Top X Best of lists and remain there.

      I actually personally liked what they did in the series with the NCR. It's very in-keeping with Fallout's "war never changes" theme that the best hope for a return to civilisation (on the surface) was severely hit. I dont think the destruction of Shady Sands means they are gone by any means, we will definitely see the NCR in the series and the franchise again, IMO.

    This video is incredibly well done, but I have to point out an oversight. Your misuse of the appropriate protagonist “title” (i.e. Chosen One, Lone Wanderer, etc.) does make it a tad confusing at times. Honestly, the only ones that ever needed mention are The Vault Dweller, Chosen One, and the Courier, as neither of the other 2 protagonists ever made contact with the NCR
    Fallout 1 - Vault Dweller
    Fallout 2 - Chosen One
    FONV - Courier
