Spoilers Falllout season 2 discussion

[TheHand]

Yes, quite a few smart super mutants out there. Fallout 2 had the intelligent super mutant companion Marcus, voiced by Michael Dorn of Lt Worf fame. He had been serving as the sheriff of a town in northern CA if memory serves.

Overall I still had fun with Season 2, but it often felt like it was spinning its wheels with too many plots and side characters I didn’t feel all that invested in. I enjoyed their take on Robert House depiction and there were a few cameos that made me smile. But yes, someone above me said popcorn instead of steak and I tend to agree.

I wouldn’t completely rule out the possibility that Hank is faking the mind-wipe. He is (or was) pretty manipulative.

That was my thought as well

I dunno about Hank, I think he's truly gone. Clearly a fanatic, taking his own "life" to keep the secrets of the enclave.

Actually, I thought that was a good bit of misdirection, up until quite late in the season, I thought Hank worked for Mr House

It was House or Enclave.

It was House or Enclave.

Yeah, not too many people he could have been working for, but the enclave never crossed my mind for most of it, especially since they sprinkled in the flashbacks with Mr House doing the mind control experiment.

Got caught up only a day late for the finale. It was a pretty good season overall and I'm looking forward to season 3. F.E.V., Enclave, another war for Vegas, and potentially more from the commonwealth all feel in play. Not to mention whatever Colorado brings us. I'm also hoping they converge more of the storylines going forward. This season was a bit more widespread than I would have preferred.

Weird theory about the overall world. It feels like this is a Fallout universe where the game protagonists never existed. Maybe that's too neat of a bow. Maybe I just need to re-watch the show because I missed things. Maybe the writers already said that and I didn't get the memo. I don't know.

Called it earlier here. House was to obvious.

House did mention digitising his mind due to the danger of wanderers (or something to that effect). I assume that meant the courier from fallout NV.

I just binged the whole of Season 2 (it is now 2:40 in the morning, though I did have to load the dishwasher between finishing watching and come here). So I enjoy watching the show. But if you forget the flash for a moment I kinda feel like the plot could be bodied by a baby molerat. Like, lots of details do not jibe well with the games, and I really hope that if they adapt any of this to Fallout 5 it is broad strokes at most, and limited to new details rather than incorporating the show's retcons.

I am also extremely confused by Stephanie. As a Canadian she was/is poised to be my new favourite character, but why in Bonhomme's good name is she cooperating with the Enclave , which is the evilest, most American group of people of all them all? Like, the little they showed of her made it actually made a whole lot of sense why she is a bit of a psychopath, because she is traumatized and locked into survival mode and everyone around her is "the enemy" . But the Enclave is the most enemiest of all.
