    Fallout Lore | Why aren't there more organized factions?


    Why aren't there more organized factions?

    Posted: 07 Jul 2020 11:33 PM PDT

    In most of the fallouts there are maybe 3 to 4 factions. My question is after 100-200 why aren't there more? Surely we should be seeing large groups like the ncr brother hood and enclave not often. Right? I realize that the us is a big place but I baffles me that there really are only 3 major factions on the entire us/Canada/Mexico?

    Why are gen-3 synths regarded as brand new when they have been in the wasteland for, like 50 years?

    Posted: 07 Jul 2020 05:17 AM PDT

    Something doesn't make sense to me, to explain what that is i want to give a explanation of my understanding of the Institute in Fo4.

    The first synts, gen 1 and 2, were mechanical. they were using metal bones and servos and electricity, and didn't have a very deep personality. Then the institute realized, that the only way to make more believable synths they would need to replicate biological beings. That's why they kidnapped Shaun, because they could use his DNA to make Synthetic meat and flesh and muscle. around this time they also started experimenting with putting personalities ripped from actual humans into their robots, which we see in Nick Valentine. He's a prototype somewhere between gen 2 and 3. his mind is that of a pre-war cop that participated in a research experiment to store his personality.

    The combination of those two technologies made the gen 3's, but Something doesn't add up. Nick said that he was thrown out of the institute ''A lifetime ago'', and Shaun is in his sixties when we find him.

    The broken mask incident, the massacre in which a synth killed countless people in diamond city, took place 58 years before the lone survivor makes it to diamond city. And Nick said that this was the moment people realized that the synths stopped looking like him (gen 2) and started looking human, clearly, this was a gen 3 synth.

    So all this point to the gen 3's being a 50 year old model. But we still see countless of hints, especially in the institute HQ, that these are the newest innovations in institute technology, and the people there are stoked to see how capable the gen 3's are, despite the fact that the gen 3's were around since long before those scientist joined or were even born.

    Has the institute made no newer inventions in synth tech than this? other than the child synth models, which are brand new.

    It doesn't make sense to me that the gen 3's are 50 years old already.

    What are your thoughts?

    Could soul music exist in the fallout universe?

    Posted: 08 Jul 2020 01:38 AM PDT

    The latest song in the fallout universe (not counting elevator music and robot musics ect) Is "wouldn't it be nice" by the beach boys from the year 1966. The song "War" (what is it good for?) by Edwin Star was written in 1969 and supposedly about the Vietnam war (an event which did happen acording to fallout tactics lore).

    So if the circumstances are the same could soul music exist in fallout or is the beach boys the latest we are going to get?

    What does a synth component do?

    Posted: 07 Jul 2020 10:37 AM PDT

    What does the synth component do other than perhaps allow a factory reset? Can you remove one without killing a synth?
