Dialog in the style of 'The Ballad of Buster Scruggs'; can you not imagine him saying that same line?

I don’t know, I mean, Julius Caesar’s empire went on for a while after he died…

That is not Caesar's empire. For one thing, his sons or descendants didnt go on to keep the topmost positions in the empire.
Take Genghis Khan's empire for example. His sons and relatives kept topmost positions in his empire after his death. Though that empire broke down immediately after that, and the remnant kingdoms get disbanded 1 century later.

In light of recent events, I figured this would be fitting posting this here!

Here's a meme in light of my recent post on Fallout 4 discussion forum!

Huh, I guess The Post-Nuclear World of Fallout was just too much for "The Doctor" to comprehend! I can't say I blame him though, it is crazy out there in the wastes.

For those who've played Fallout Tactics, would say that this was your reaction to getting this ending? Because I definitely reacted similarly to this when I first saw it!

THIS, this is why players kept shitting on Tactics back in the day.
Motherfuckers! You require storyfag elements in a tactic turnbased game. Heavy, deep, storyfag elements.
In a tactical game, the point is the whole process leading to ending, not endings. Does it matter which ending when the process is identical and only the last ten minutes change? It's like you dont keep a series of saves or anything. You do keep several saves, dont you?

You know, the late 2000s seemed to have some sort of weird fascination with such a concept, of a war torned Washington Monument.

Hmmm if this pattern continues, I wonder if we'll be getting an announcement for a new Fallout game on Christmas Day 2033? Heh heh.

Gonna repost my thread here, because no one will probably see it.
"Bitches be like: I don't like Caesar's Legion because they cosplay ancient Rome!"
Almost every faction in Fallout LARPs in some way or another, intentionally or accidentally.
Let's go through factions:
All Vaults - I'm not entirely sure, maybe they're cosplaying Star Trek or something like that.
Shady Sands - Ancient Egypt, because of adobe buildings, monument with weird symbols, and map image in style of Egypt paintings.
Khans - ancient Mongol is, because they're living off raiding, wear Mongol themed armor and their map image is in style of Mongol warrior.
Junktown - generic western town, because they have Sheriff, I guess.
The Hub - I'm not entirely sure, maybe ancient Middle Eastern countries, because of the whole trading theme and music theme.
Necropolis - accidentally zombie cosplaying.
Brotherhood of Steel - knights of medieval times, obviously.
Mutant Army - I'm not entirely sure, maybe orc army from Lord of the Rings, maybe Hulk, maybe all together.
Unity - catholic christianity, because they're a religious group, duh, and they have big glorious Cathedral, which is built by catholics.
All tribes - accidentally cosplaying Native Americans and other tribes from history.
Klamath - generic town.
Den - generic town.
Modoc - generic town.
(god those three locations are so fucking boring).
Slags near Modoc - I'm not entirely sure, maybe vampires, because they can't bear the sunlight.
Vault City - maybe the same Star Trek theme, I'm not sure.
Redding - generic town.
New Reno - mafia from 20th century, because of all that gang war, drug dealing, casinos etc.
NCR - I forgot NCR from Fallout 2, but for Fallout New Vegas I would say they cosplay America from 50s, because their equipment looks like from that time, and the Mojave conflict resembles Vietnam war.
San Francisco - obviously Ancient China stuff.
Hubologists - huge reference joke about Scientology.
Enclave - I guess nazis, because they wear really stylish black uniform, do inhumane experiments on humans both mutated and normal, kill anyone who's not them, plans for the FEV holocaust the whole world etc.
Megaton - generic western town, because of Sheriff.
Children of Atom - idk, maybe Protestants? Since their church is lame lol, or maybe from one movie where people worshipped giant bullet.
Rivet City - no idea.
Little Lamplight - maybe that tribe from Mad Max sequel, not sure.
Centuberry Commons - literally cosplaying heroes and villains.
Almost all towns in New Vegas - western towns.
New Vegas - same Las Vegas but post-apocalyptic
Mr. House - The Wizard of Oz, because he hides behind giant display showing his face.
Caesar's Legion - Ancient Rome, duh.
Institute - blade runner stuff maybe.
Railroad and Minuteman - ancient organizations from Civil War times and older.
Anyway that was my rant against misconceptive morons playing Fallout New Vegas. What do you think? Did I miss something, am I wrong about something? Feel free to correct me or comment about other factions cosplaying ancient organizations, that I missed.
Oh also Super-Mutans and synths are prob allegory on trannies, since both of them are sterile, want to turn everyone else into them, in some cases want to be something they're not like Harkness or intelligent Super-Mutans, or when you prove Master's plan wrong with common sense and scientific data and he commits suicide lololololol.

Clasic Fallout style and TF2 style are both really similiar, because they both look cartoonish, and TF2 looks like it's made of clay like Classic Fallout models.

I mean, really the only Legion member who ever mentions Mars is Legate Lanius, everyone else worships Caesar, or maybe I'm wrong.
The endings are great and very well done! They are one of the things I liked the most about Tactics when replaying it 2022. I get the point @laclongquan is trying to make, but I'm a 100% storyfag so I love well narrated endings that gets your imagination going.
