@@frankhorrigan1508 no, go look at his backstory being foretold, he wore it as a legate, and even moments before being throw into the canyon. You see his blonde, shaggy hair, but never his face.
I like how Ulysses response is "Uh.... yeah Ceasar wanted me to kill him but... uh... I just didn't... because l... uh... I didn't want too! Yeah...I totally could have though..."
I took his “Never tried. Could have. No good would come of it” as meaning “I could have tried, but I know it would’ve been a waste of effort” rather than “I could have killed him but chose not to”
Caesar doesnt want people to talk about it because he essentially ended up burning and tossing his buddy and knows that if Joshua is alive, hes gonna come back with a vengeance and kill him
Same. Real weird to have your persona pal talk to you about the wasteland. Weirder since his voice is so recognisable to see him voice characters across all factions
I like how Ulysses' pessimism still bleeds into his outlook on how he think Joshua will live on, even though we can influence him to be more merciful and to move on from his rage.
I feel like he has to already know. Joshua just went back to the Mormons-never really went into hiding. Hell, he and Daniel are missionaries, so he was practically going around announcing his presence by trying to convert people. There’s no way Caesar doesn’t already know.
I really wish that there would have been unique dialogue if you met Graham before you meet named legionaries. Say something like “Joshua Graham lives.” Kinda like how you can tell the Brotherhood and/or Institute about Acadia in Far Harbor. Either to ask for a reward to “slay the legend”, or to put just a bit more weight in their pants that a ghost of vengeance may come knocking.
Damn did Yuri Lowenthal (Sasuke Uchiha, Haseo, Yosuke Hanamura, Ben Tennyson, Simon the Digger, Suzaku Kururugi, the Prince of Persia, and more) voice like half the Legion in this game?

He was in his prime when he was with the legion and apparently just as ruthless as lanius For someone that came from a mormon community this guys mercilessness is surprising
Normal man is questionable. I think in the files he does more damage than a sniper rifle with his pistol and he has the highest Damage Threshold compared to any other character. And the NCR sniped him 5 times during the 1st battle of the Hoover Dam, he was in Boulder City when it exploded, survived being set on fire and thrown into the Grand Canyon, and then walked back to Utah on his own. I don't think he is a normal man at this point.
You people are silly. It's perfectly fine to say "Joshua Graham" since that's not his legion name. What most people, other than hardcore fans, don't realize is that Joshua's TRUE name, his "forbidden" name, is Malpais.
I love how Ulysses' perspective on Graham is uniquely _his_ to have. I can't help but feel as if Ulysses was written here as to compare Joshua to both Ulysses and the Courier; all three were "broken" to some degree, and all three managed in the aftermath to find home, whatever that means for them. For Graham, it's Zion, for the Courier, it's Vegas, and for Ulysses, it's the Divide. To Ulysses, home isn't necessarily your birthplace, but a place you can breath life into and know who you are. It's fitting to describe Graham's personal redemption by these terms - he might be permanently damaged by his baptism by fire, but when he's at home with the tribals in Zion, and can foster and protect them, keeping the spirit of Randall Clark alive, he's breathing life into Zion. And by sparing Salt-Upon-Wounds following the defense of Zion, and recognizing his emotions in a more personal and introspective matter, he more truly grows to understand who he is, and to move beyond his present existence of hatred and desire for revenge. To let go, and begin again.
I think it has something to do with the game engine making it difficult to add things to existing characters from dlc. But I like the reason Graham gives, Ceasar's head is too far up his ass to ever admit he failed to kill him the first time plus however many frumentarii he sent. And the rest of the legion follows so blindly that except for a few people most believe he is dead simply because Ceasar said so.
@@davidteachout1888 Caesar knows he's alive. That's why he sent frumentarii to find him. He's not the type of person to send troops after ghosts. Even when talking about him, he suggests you "end the conversation" i think if you mentioned him, he would have told you "what? Why didn't you kill him?" and then attack you for knowing, and if you didn't, would have simply said "Well, now i must kill you for knowing that he's alive, too many loose ends, our partnership ends here" and also attack you.
it'd be a nice touch if wearing joshua graham's armor (it's a gift in the footlocker at the end of Honest Hearts) or carrying the scripture led to some special dialogue with legion members, maybe even some kind of slave revolt now that they know the Burned Man is still alive
I was always confused about that since he continues to wear "his" outfit too...does he have multiple copies of it? Are we canonically NOT supposed to have that outfit? 🤪
It always tilts me when Ceasar talks us down in the vanilla game, even though out character single handely screwed his best soldiers and can easily tear the whole camp apart. I wish there was a way to talk back to him other than the one terrifying presence dialogue
@@SzajKornik its funny whenever the npc talk down on you or even attempt to backstab you while you're fully kitted with a T-45B power armor with an automatic rocket launcher
What I love about Joshua Graham as a video game character is that he's just a human. no super powers, no magic, no divine intervention. He survived being set on fire AND thrown into the Grand Canyon, and people have every reason to believe that he shouldn't physically be alive.
Joshua had his skin melted off his body, his bones broken from the fall, and still walked on shattered legs 400 Miles over 3 months back to New Canaan. He only lived by Divine intervation. "I survived because the fire inside me burned brighter than the fire around me. I fell into that chasm, but the flame burnt on and on. The fire that had kept alive was love, their love, God's love.' Joshua HIMSELF states that he only survived because God forgave him, and gave him a chance to atone for all the sins he had commited. Joshua only lived because God saw in him a chance to repent and find forgiveness
Joshua has actually effective armor, not a bunch of cosplay bs. And he also uses "inferior" guns. Lanius goes monkey mode and tries melee combat and Joshua shoots him dead. End.

It's a bit of a shame they didn't give Caesar more dialogue in Graham considering no one was closer to him than Caesar. A speech check at least would have been nice to hear his perspective on Graham.
[Speech 100] "Surely you of all people have some type of knowledge on The Burned Man." [FAILED] "I'm done talking to you, get out of my tent and do what I asked of you before I order my Praetorians to hang you to a cross." [SUCCESS] "Alright, I admit, I knew him better than anyone else at the camp, but I refuse to speak about this publicly. Come back later tonight, I will order all my Praetorians out of the tent. There, we can speak about this matter in private." *Later that night.* "You were seeking information on The Burned Man, correct? I will share this information with you, but if you tell anyone, ally or not, about this, I will make sure you never see the light of day. Got that?" "Yes." "Good. Now that we're clear on the consequences of sharing this information, I will tell you what I know about Joshua Graham, or better known as The Burned Man. Joshua was a religious man me and my partner came across in New Canaan, back before we were the Legion. We were Followers of the Apocalypse at the time, looking to help those in need. Graham wanted to spread the word of God to the tribals, and we hesitated to bring him along, but his intellect on the tribals' way of speaking swayed us to do so. We went into Arizona to help some of the locals with Graham as a guide. We encountered a small tribe near Phoenix. They were timid of us at first, but eventually welcomed us with open arms as if we were one of their own. After a week or two of staying with them, a rival tribe came over and threatened to wipe out everyone if they didn't hand over supplies. Graham was slow to anger and quick to forgive, but he was by no means a pushover in combat. Graham convinced the rival tribe their scavengers were out looking and to come back in a few days. In the meantime, he trained some of the men in the tribe to become fierce warriors, while me and my partner taught the women the art of medicine. When the rival tribe returned, Graham and his warriors ambushed the tribe, wiping out their entire raiding force and going to their camp to capture prisoners, take supplies, and kill any who resisted. Graham and his warriors got a taste for battle after that, while I led the assaults. Slowly, we conquered more tribes, took more prisoners, and our numbers swelled. We were no longer a tribe at that point, we were the Legion." "What happened to Graham after that?" "As we advanced Westward, we came across the Desert Rangers. They were skilled in combat, but we had more numbers. One of the Rangers we killed had a map with X around New Vegas. Graham gave the map to me, and I knew that is where I wanted my capital to reside. As we approached Hoover Dam, our scouts spotted what we now know is the NCR. We tried to tell them to leave at first, yet they didn't listen. Negotiations broke down, and soon small fights began to break out between NCR Rangers and our scouts. Neither side wanted to take the blame, and negotiations broke down even more. Eventually, we stopped communicating with each other entirely as our forces clashed in bigger and bigger battles, until it was decided we were at war with each other. I came up with a plan to attack Hoover Dam, with Graham and his forces leading the charge. The attack was a success, we had the dam, yet Graham followed the weakened NCR into Boulder City, where a trap had been laid and he walked right into it. His forces were crushed, none left, and Graham barely managed to escape across the dam back into the camp. I was furious, and took Graham personally to the Grand Canyon, where I ordered him to be covered in pitch, set on fire, and thrown into the canyon. After a few days, I returned to see Graham's burnt, mangled corpse at the base of the canyon, but all I saw was burnt clothing and torn up bandages. I've sent frumentarii out looking for him since, but they have yet to find anything." "So do you think Graham is still alive?" "It's hard to believe Graham walks to this day, but I have no other explanation for it. I doubt the tribals took him in, and I doubt even more that they could keep Graham alive. If he were to still be alive, it'd be by his own hand."
2:52 Wait, did Caesar literally watch Joshua roll all the way down... Then get up and walk away? If so, no wonder he's got guys looking for Graham, and forbids his name being spoken! I don't care how badass you are, that would make any man soil his skirt. 😬
@@astrotrek3534prolly his basic instinct kicks in and he walked to safety subconsciously then passed out. There's several case similar like that irl afterall, some racing driver crashed out then subconsciously walk out to safety behind the guardrail then passed out until he was discovered by medical team.
Courier: Hey Caesar my man. I went to Zion and happened to learn that the burned man everyone's been talking about still alive. I went out of my way and took care of him. You were not so successful in regard to killing that mummy but you are now. I think you owe me one. Caesar: Praetorians, kill this asshole! Courier: ...What?
He doesn't really agree with any faction anyway. He obviously hates the Legion. He views House as similar to Caesar becuase of how he handled the Three Families when they were tribes, but does remark "it's too bad." Fianlly he is pessimistic about NCR. He thinks they are better than the other two, but believes their leader's greed and corruption will tear them apart eventually. Graham isn't a Independent Vegas supporter either, he just doesn't care, which is understandable considering fighting for the Mojave scarred him the way it did, he just wants to stay out of it.
There’s rumours of a man who barely makes noise but he controls the courier via remote, little do many know there’s a multiverse of couriers in one universe it was said that he found infinity stones an sniffed them and in his universe yes man was snuffed as well as all figure heads and you think your universe is the best so far that courier has had children who time travel so that people start new games some say the camera man never dies I say the courier will live forever hail the courier and his iron nostrils that also sniffed the platinum chip.
Thats why Ulysses hesitated when he was tasked to kill Graham Ulysses: "No good would have come off it" It can be interpreted in many ways but it also can be interpreted as he knows he will lose thats why he hesitated.
I honestly can't imagine playing the game under Caesar's boot. I only just played FNV for the first time about 2 years ago and by the time I got to Caesar I was already super high level and had destroyed the BOS so I wasn't about to take shit from his old ass. After I activated the underground mainframe with the platinum chip I killed the entire Legion camp, then blew Benny's head off and as far as I'm concerned that was the end of my courier's story. House got what he wanted, I got my revenge on Benny so there was no reason to stick around in Nevada anymore. I like to imagine the Courier went off east into Colorado in search of more work.
I love how the mods make new vegas look so fresh and beautiful, even without mods I think Obsidian made a great work giving personality to the game, compared to Bethesda og Fallout games
I feel like the courier otho and Anthony would be great legions friends Going on adventure getting into trouble 😅😂 and otho would be the one friend with a stick up his butt always going on and on about rules this and rules that and he tries really hard to be cool but doesn't understand what cool is and hes a total daddy boy While Anthony is the one friend always looking for something fun to do 😜 like a puppy
"The Burned Man was our greatest warrior, even greater than Legate Lanius". The Legion obeys Lanius due to the fear he imposes among soldiers, however, even after "death", the same soldiers keep viewing Graham with respect. When it comes to icons or military forces, Lanius becomes strength, but Joshua becomes raw power.
Hanlon sent NCR elites to assassinate Graham 5x and still walk away from it. Thats like getting a death sentence 5x and surviving it all. No wonder all of the legion are scared shitless of Graham.
I love how Joshua just wore some police armor and casual wear and was a Legate, while Lanius is the most stereotypical looking warrior with the mask as a cherry on top.

"Good. Now that we're clear on the consequences of sharing this information, I will tell you what I know about Joshua Graham, or better known as The Burned Man. Joshua was a religious man me and my partner came across in New Canaan, back before we were the Legion. We were Followers of the Apocalypse at the time, looking to help those in need. Graham wanted to spread the word of God to the tribals, and we hesitated to bring him along, but his intellect on the tribals' way of speaking swayed us to do so. We went into Arizona to help some of the locals with Graham as a guide. We encountered a small tribe near Phoenix. They were timid of us at first, but eventually welcomed us with open arms as if we were one of their own. After a week or two of staying with them, a rival tribe came over and threatened to wipe out everyone if they didn't hand over supplies. Graham was slow to anger and quick to forgive, but he was by no means a pushover in combat. Graham convinced the rival tribe their scavengers were out looking and to come back in a few days. In the meantime, he trained some of the men in the tribe to become fierce warriors, while me and my partner taught the women the art of medicine. When the rival tribe returned, Graham and his warriors ambushed the tribe, wiping out their entire raiding force and going to their camp to capture prisoners, take supplies, and kill any who resisted. Graham and his warriors got a taste for battle after that, while I led the assaults. Slowly, we conquered more tribes, took more prisoners, and our numbers swelled. We were no longer a tribe at that point, we were the Legion."
"What happened to Graham after that?"
"As we advanced Westward, we came across the Desert Rangers. They were skilled in combat, but we had more numbers. One of the Rangers we killed had a map with X around New Vegas. Graham gave the map to me, and I knew that is where I wanted my capital to reside. As we approached Hoover Dam, our scouts spotted what we now know is the NCR. We tried to tell them to leave at first, yet they didn't listen. Negotiations broke down, and soon small fights began to break out between NCR Rangers and our scouts. Neither side wanted to take the blame, and negotiations broke down even more. Eventually, we stopped communicating with each other entirely as our forces clashed in bigger and bigger battles, until it was decided we were at war with each other. I came up with a plan to attack Hoover Dam, with Graham and his forces leading the charge. The attack was a success, we had the dam, yet Graham followed the weakened NCR into Boulder City, where a trap had been laid and he walked right into it. His forces were crushed, none left, and Graham barely managed to escape across the dam back into the camp. I was furious, and took Graham personally to the Grand Canyon, where I ordered him to be covered in pitch, set on fire, and thrown into the canyon. After a few days, I returned to see Graham's burnt, mangled corpse at the base of the canyon, but all I saw was burnt clothing and torn up bandages. I've sent frumentarii out looking for him since, but they have yet to find anything."
"So do you think Graham is still alive?"
"It's hard to believe Graham walks to this day, but I have no other explanation for it. I doubt the tribals took him in, and I doubt even more that they could keep Graham alive. If he were to still be alive, it'd be by his own hand."
An AI voice mod would make this into a reality. Awesome writing
@@lordpumpkinhead265lmfao
I believe he does, talk to him about his past and he brings up Graham in the Followers of the Apocalypse tangent. He doesn't go into detail, though...
@mrwizzygiorosales7930 we don't encourage that here
Ceasar has wrath? I've never felt it.
the only thing i've ever felt from ceasar is the blood splatter after i place a .50 mg round through his skull
Try nagging him once he tries to fall asleep and you will feel it
@@bobafett9348 he has a bed? I thought he never left that stupid chair. At least that's where I got rid of his tumor, and his head.
"You gamble with your words and your coin is lacking."
This line has more fire than Graham's backside.
2:52 Wait, did Caesar literally watch Joshua roll all the way down... Then get up and walk away? If so, no wonder he's got guys looking for Graham, and forbids his name being spoken! I don't care how badass you are, that would make any man soil his skirt. 😬
According to Joshua, he was unconscious for a day
@@astrotrek3534prolly his basic instinct kicks in and he walked to safety subconsciously then passed out. There's several case similar like that irl afterall, some racing driver crashed out then subconsciously walk out to safety behind the guardrail then passed out until he was discovered by medical team.
Joshua had maxed acrobatics
@@NiCoNiCoNiCola He watched Buster Keaton movies to learn how to pratfall effectively

Sure is a lot of talking them legionaries do for dead men.

What mods do you use for character & clothing textures?
I really wish you could press Caesar on Joshua and not just change the subject. Kinda lame.
Courier: Hey Caesar my man. I went to Zion and happened to learn that the burned man everyone's been talking about still alive. I went out of my way and took care of him. You were not so successful in regard to killing that mummy but you are now. I think you owe me one.
Caesar: Praetorians, kill this asshole!
Courier: ...What?
Can John Graham Ally with a faction?
Sadly I don’t believe he can
@@madrussian1444
Sad indeed.
He doesn't really agree with any faction anyway. He obviously hates the Legion. He views House as similar to Caesar becuase of how he handled the Three Families when they were tribes, but does remark "it's too bad." Fianlly he is pessimistic about NCR. He thinks they are better than the other two, but believes their leader's greed and corruption will tear them apart eventually. Graham isn't a Independent Vegas supporter either, he just doesn't care, which is understandable considering fighting for the Mojave scarred him the way it did, he just wants to stay out of it.
@@thewholehorse7140 That...explains much.
Ahh yes the John Graham, Joshua's twin.
Somebody get the Legion a supply of brown contacts, STAT
Best NPC in the entire Fallout series.
The bird man.
You guys ever heard about freddy Krueger? We don't talk about him either.
There’s rumours of a man who barely makes noise but he controls the courier via remote, little do many know there’s a multiverse of couriers in one universe it was said that he found infinity stones an sniffed them and in his universe yes man was snuffed as well as all figure heads and you think your universe is the best so far that courier has had children who time travel so that people start new games some say the camera man never dies I say the courier will live forever hail the courier and his iron nostrils that also sniffed the platinum chip.
Isn't there a large chunk of info from Chief Ranger Hanlon talking about the first battle?
Siri, tell me about the Burned Man.
Man, like half of those Legionaries were just Yuri Lowenthal lol
what graphics mod is this
Hey, how did you get dragbody armor remastered but kept the original faces?
2:06 is the same voice actor for Sauske from naruto
Joshua would’ve wrecked Ulysses.
Thats why Ulysses hesitated when he was tasked to kill Graham
Ulysses: "No good would have come off it" It can be interpreted in many ways but it also can be interpreted as he knows he will lose thats why he hesitated.
Well duh he's far stronger than even Lanius was
Is there any game begging for a graphics update more than this one?
I honestly can't imagine playing the game under Caesar's boot. I only just played FNV for the first time about 2 years ago and by the time I got to Caesar I was already super high level and had destroyed the BOS so I wasn't about to take shit from his old ass. After I activated the underground mainframe with the platinum chip I killed the entire Legion camp, then blew Benny's head off and as far as I'm concerned that was the end of my courier's story. House got what he wanted, I got my revenge on Benny so there was no reason to stick around in Nevada anymore. I like to imagine the Courier went off east into Colorado in search of more work.
That's exactly what I did except I didn't destroy the whole camp. Can you keep the platinum chip after that and disable mr house
I love how the mods make new vegas look so fresh and beautiful, even without mods I think Obsidian made a great work giving personality to the game, compared to Bethesda og Fallout games
So even they think he's a greater warrior than lanius
That's insane considering lanius is an actual monster
Cool to know the utmost feared man the ‘Burned man’ is from *utah*
Add a mod list, boss. Provide the sauce
bro why does vulpes look like he from the ghetto
mans got a 20 dollar haircut
Always wearing that dog helmet to hide his yee yee ass haircut
You're never gonna tell us your ENB, are you?
Its funny how a courier who got capped twice with a 45 to the dome
Fucked so shit up all over went to some mountain to chill out on
is Otho... Yuri Lowenthal? 😭😭
Sure is

What mods are you using? It looks so good
I haven’t really kept up in a really long time but how does their game look so good. Is it there hardware, mods or a remastering of some sort? Thanks
Dudes be like "Subway sucks". My brother in Christ... You made the sandwich.
I feel like the courier otho and Anthony would be great legions friends
Going on adventure getting into trouble 😅😂 and otho would be the one friend with a stick up his butt always going on and on about rules this and rules that and he tries really hard to be cool but doesn't understand what cool is and hes a total daddy boy
While Anthony is the one friend always looking for something fun to do 😜 like a puppy
I see similarity between Abraham and Joshua. Maybe this was the case when the character made. The fire did not kill him
5:29 The third option is literally just
What would I lie to you? I am telling the truth.
whgats the graphics mods youre using here?
My favorite character in all of fallout the burning man
Someone tell me what enb he uses
Ulysses being a professional yapper as always
he was a mormon it sounds like.
I'm on and off hearing Sasuke from Naruto.
What are your mods
My coin is lacking? Ohoho buddy, I have a bunch of Sierra Madre gold bars that beg to differ.

@@BigMikeMcBastard Well aware, friend.
Wtf Lucius started talking and suddenly i heard Dainsleif from Genshin
"The Burned Man was our greatest warrior, even greater than Legate Lanius".
The Legion obeys Lanius due to the fear he imposes among soldiers, however, even after "death", the same soldiers keep viewing Graham with respect. When it comes to icons or military forces, Lanius becomes strength, but Joshua becomes raw power.
Hanlon sent NCR elites to assassinate Graham 5x and still walk away from it. Thats like getting a death sentence 5x and surviving it all. No wonder all of the legion are scared shitless of Graham.
Why do all the npcs look like theyre from kotor
Sasuke was like four of these guys
He dosnt exist tho guys he’s dead
