You know if those stupid rebels would just stop blowing them up all the time we could've had a death solar system by now. :colbert:

Fallout 3 has a super mutant factory, it's where you find Fawkes.

I don't know, I don't think the first order (the guys who came after the empire) had the technical wherewithal to build sustainably at that scale. Even just the one planet sized death star was really pushing it.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

My favorite part of the movie that is Fallout 3's story is when it really does pull the lovely movie cliche of having all your very capable friends refuse the test meant for you. Even the guy who's immune to being irradiated, who did it before to get a plot critical item for you. No, wanderer. It is your destiny to inhale the fart gas.

We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

Oh, it's not just the super mutant. You potentially have a robot companion, a ghoul under contract (who I do believe are immune to radiation) and a messed up slave who is still conditioned to do whatever her new master tells her to do.

All of them clearly recognize that you are the main character who needs to do a meaningful sacrifice, regardless of what your actions have been prior to that final moment.

And then a DLC gave you more options because it offered a post-game campaign. But it's not just more practical to send the super mutant/robot/ghoul to do the job, you let them do it because are obviously a coward.

"It was not until the end of this long road that the Lone Wanderer was faced with that greatest of virtues – sacrifice. But the child refused to follow the father's selfless example - instead, allowing a true hero to venture into the irradiated control chamber of Project Purity and sacrifice her own life for the greater good of mankind.

Fawkes was a real bro, and I'm fine with him getting the glory instead. :colbert:

For those here that primarily watch movies and don't play video games, don't worry! They're ALSO an excuse for the writer to work on his daddy issues. Try the last of us or the new god of war today, they're really cinematic!

Why not? Like...couldn't some smart guy make a second Super Mutant factory back east?

Granted, my Fallout knowledge is limited to like 4 hours of 3, 10ish of NV, and (to my shame) like 20 hours of 4.

No, you're right. There's been multiple strains of FEV worked on.
