The problem is he doesn't sound irish, he sounds like an american doing a terrible irish accent.

But... Irish people sound like Americans doing terrible Irish accents.

Some of them, yeah. Lot of different regional accents in Ireland, some sound a lot like some Scottish accents (speaking as a Scotsman there,) others have a strange almost lyrical twang to them, which I personally find really pretty as accents go, and there's bound to be a bunch I've never actually heard and so can't compare to others.

Cait and Moriarty's accents never struck me as being that far from some of the Irish accents I've heard, I always felt they were passable imitations at worst.

You get to murder Bobbi (and Mel, I think) in cold blood, get a unique minigun with the Explosive legendary mod, and can recruit Hancock as a companion.
All-around good shit, I suppose.

 Speaking of being in a fridge for 200 years, what are the chances of an entire family getting ghoolified?

Judging by the amount of feral ghouls running around I'd say Bethesda see it as being quite likely for anyone who survived the initial blast to become a ghoul. If that's the case a whole family being ghoulified isn't that far fetched.

It actually happened in FO4. There's a little hidden quest involving them.

I know, I've done it. I was simply commenting that it's not that unlikely for a three person family to be ghoulified given that ghouls in general seem fairly common.

Though it does point to ghouls not needing to eat or drink to survive, and that they don't suffer muscle atrophy, which raises a lot of questions about their radiation driven biology.

The questions can be answered by a simple "because Fallout."

fix thine spoiler

10/10 spoilering. Btw, Darth Vader is Harry Potter's father and Luke kills Snape. Also, Bruce Willis is people and Soylent Green was a ghost the whole time.

Holy shit, friend of mine has been telling me how he built up every settlement...
and then he shared this:

he did this on several settlements...

AND THEN HE WENT TO DIAMOND CITY FOR THE FIRST TIME
HE CAPTURED LITERALLY EVERY SETTLEMENT FIRST

I thought *I* was doing the radiant too much, flip!

The takeaway though is that he has really enjoyed the game up to this point and is pleasantly interested in the plot going forward.
It's maddening to not be able to talk to him about the Brotherhood, though, since he's always distrusted them (he only played 3 and NV) and I'd like to discuss how, yes, they're actually kinda evil in this one.  Sorta kinda.  He only just reached the Prydwynn and hasn't yet contacted the Railroad (says the waypoint isn't appearing right)

Meanwhile I still can't bring myself to start playing again (dropped it around Christmas).  I got to the Institute and... just...  Can't make a decision.
I guess canonically I should just

say that my character stayed there for for a few weeks, reconnecting with Shaun, during which time she was won over.  Sorry, Brotherhood, but the Institute's vision for the future is purer.

I really want to see how he reacts to the Institute, but right now his theory is that they ARE the Brotherhood soooo yeah.  My prediction is that he rejects them, like he hated the Brotherhood in previous games.

[SOLDIER First]

Maybe once he's on the Prydwen more he'll realize they're not super evil, just really.. really devoted to what they think is right?

[KingofstarrySkies]

Literally don't know that there are other ways, I think at this point.

[SOLDIER First]

I guess for Maxson / the squires it would be so, because they were raised Brotherhood from little babbies.. But for, say, Danse, he would know there are other ways, since he joined as an adult.
Disregarding the fact that all of his memories aren't his own, I mean. He's just so loyal to the Brotherhood that he doesn't about other ways.

would evil people... not be?
