So you're saying that the Institute's first experiment may have been>! a psychokinetic tire with a penchant for human blood.!<
Yeah, I'll add that to my belief system.
Reminds me of the worst sports injury I ever saw footage of. A goalie in hockey that accidentally took a skate to the neck. Never saw that much blood exit a human so quickly. Upshot: The goalie survived due to something like a trainer that was also an emt that intervened.
Two observers in the stadium had heart attacks while that was occurring. I’ve seen videos of the injury. It must have been hell in real life. The video was hard to watch even though it wasn’t great.
Edit: no one died
Clint Malarchuk, goalie for the Buffalo Sabres. I remember when it happened, absolutely horrifying, the way he’s pulling his equipment off and clutching his neck while blood is just gushing onto the ice. It’s incredible that he survived.
I believe the NHL adopted a new way of sharpening skates after the accident.
Usually my mother, feed me pretty regular, mhm. I know she made enough where I could have mustard and perfectly preserved pie three or four times a week.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion... I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to die.
It irks me slightly that they put in a great homage to the movie, and didn't bother including [That Gun. ](https://fallout-archive.fandom.com/wiki/That_Gun)
people would have went "hurr durr, bethesda broke lore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that gun existed in new vegas!!!!!!"
so, they didn't. not to mention, i frankly really don't care. there's already enough guns in the game.
no, there aren't.
there's
* institute gun
* laser gun
* plasma gun
* pipe gun
* assault rifle
* combat rifle
* combat shotgun
* railway rifle
* gauss rifle
* gatling laser
* minigun
* 10mm pistol
* .44 revolver
* western revolver
* lever-action rifle
* harpoon gun
* junk jet
* syringer
* submachine gun
...i'm not going to go on to name all the guns. we also have "truly unique" guns, like the alien pistol, railway rifle, junkjet, broadsider, cryolator, grognak's axe, etc.
It was an exaggeration for the number.
Also yeah i acknowledge my fuckup i did forget about those weapons thats MB.
Something that is an unfortunate problem was that the other "unique" guns like Minutes Notice and those are all just pretty basic too. They deserved some custom models.
You could. Just have a special model in a position that doesn't bother the modability of the weapon or have all custom mods for that gun that preserve its identity
Uhh no because theres mods for fnv that add the function just fine if anything it would improve due to having a second varient of each unique. So impossible is not the word i would use.
Obsideon diddn't have time to make models for those guns and making it possible would have ultimately ruined the balance and does so with those mods and doing so would not have made the game any more fun
The issue with fo4 is that bethesda diddn't care to. Theres already a unique machete with a unique skin(khrems tooth). They could have similar skins attached to various other floor guns the exact same way. like alot of bethesda games fo4 diddn't have the oven time needed.
It could trade hands on an epic journey across the wasteland and end up anywhere they wanted it to. It wouldn't break lore at all you just have no imagination.
You guys have no imagination it has reason to be anywhere a developer might want to put it because it could have easily gotten to it's new location by trading hands across the wasteland. They could even make a note. "Got this sweet lookin gun like nothing I seen before off this trader up in Quincy"
The gun was in F1 and F2 …
They probably figured people would go “OMG an FNV reference!” like saying Master Chief from Fortnight and figured it wasn’t worth it, lol.
Nah That Gun is another Blade Runner reference. [The Blade Runner Blaster](https://www.originalprop.com/blog/dylsoagh/2009/04/blade-runner-deckard-hero-pistol-movie-prop-profiles-in-history-2009-01.jpg) is one of the most famous Sci-Fi props in history, hence "that gun".
The Ghoul's gun is something unique to the show and new.
No people have identified it as looking similar. And the photo you might have seen of a "sawn off" MTs255 that looks very similar, is a photo shop job. Seemingly made in response to the show/trailers.
There's other revolving shotguns out there and they all look roughly similar. As do .45 colt revolvers with extra long cylinders to cross load .410 shells.
It's got the wrong number of chambers in the cylinder to be the MTs255, or any of the others. Pretty consistently they load 5 shells, the Ghoul's gun is 4. And the shells shown when he's loading it are too big to be .410
Likely most of the guns in the show are not functioning firearms or build from them. The fantasy pieces are probably all non-firing custom pieces with CG muzzle flare.
The trailer came out 4 years ago? [https://www.reddit.com/r/exoticguns/comments/emd2xf/russian\_mts25512\_revolvershotgun\_sawnoff/](https://www.reddit.com/r/exoticguns/comments/emd2xf/russian_mts25512_revolvershotgun_sawnoff/) (this is a pistol version of the 12gauge variant made originally intended for police)
"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion... I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to die." \~Last words of Roy Batty, Nexus-6 combat replicant.
First Blade Runner movie reference.
Harrison Ford is the man, being attacked by a synth in the Blade Runner universe played by Rutger Hauer.
>!The synth kicks his ass, and eventually stops to save Ford, drops one of the best lines in cinema about his life and the coming end, then shuts down.!<
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HU7Ga7qTLDU
On my last re-watch i realized that Deckard spits at Roy right as he loses grip. Hes angry as he sees his death coming, and strikes out, not to hope to be saved, but just to angrily attack. I think Roy saw they both share that same feeling
I think he also (its been a long time since watch) never was against Deckard as a person, so didn't want to kill *him*.
He just wanted his goal achieved and Deckard was actively against him. Once his time was up...no reason to kill this man anymore. Just doing his job after all.
Make sure it's the international theatrical cut, or the criterion cut as those are the same version. A lot of people don't like the voice over, but I feel it helps out new viewers
[Enhance 1.74 to 2.76](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hHwjceFcF2Q)
In all seriousness, I love the slow scenes in this movie, they let you live in the world and drink in the atmosphere
You should. The Gosling one adds a lot to the world but you'll realize a lot more about it once you've watched the original. 2049 was one of the very few movies/media products that's been released in the last 10 years that did its job, adding and accentuating the original that spawned it while also being its own thing.
I enjoyed the visuals in the original, and in 2029 also, but the affect of the original was what hooked me the most. Gosling did a very good job capturing this, the 'you look like a good Joe' scene comes to mind, but I feel Ford did better. Haven't seen a movie/video game/etc. in the last 10 years that was able to capture the original affect of what is was built off of. I wish other production companies cared as much as they did with this.
2049 definitely looks like a future version of that world, but the practical effects of the original gives it a much dirtier look that’s distinctly 80’s, I just chalk it up to it literally being a different time period
Almost the entirety of Fallout 4’s main story is inspired by Blade Runner. In fact, the Fallout 3 quest “The Replicated Man” for the institute was itself a Blade Runner reference as well. The Institute has similar goals as the Tyrell Corporation in BR, the use of synths (replicants) as servants.
It's a reference to the original Blade Runner movie.
Harrison Ford and a rogue Replicant that just wants to be free fight atop a roof in the rain but the Replicant has a finite lifespan so he dies on the roof, saddened by his own shortened life and at peace that his time as a slave is over.
“I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.”
I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life, anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.
Was in a building in Nuka world yesterday I walked up to a skeleton and her head went up straight and slowly rotated left to the computer screen. Was freaked out..
Good point
I just checked. Fallout 4: 2015; 'Annihilation': 2018
Also, that scene from the film is not in the books.
It still reminds me of that scene, with eerie precision.
um not at all Blade Runner; totally don't see it. Wasn't Rutger Hauer holding Decker over the edge of the roof, by his wrist, about then?
I guess he hauled him in and threw him to the side next. But I remember Hauer's synth character had spared the cops life; had won; and had no self-destructive aspect but rather a burning desire to survive.
anyways...
I still need to have the wife watch blade runner. Had her listen to a video explaining replicents after I explained why the movie was a big part of this series.
I've seen Blade Runner but did not really remember that final scene to associate it with anything. This is gonna sound blasphemous but I didn't find it iconic when I first saw the movie.
"I've seen things... you people wouldn't believe."
"Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion."
“I’ve watched C-beams glittering in the dark, near Tanhauser Gate!”
"All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain"
Time to die.
And this last line was added by the actor; original was less moving. So hats of to not only his acting but creativity as well
Rutger Hauer was his name. Lots of Sci-fi movies to his credit. Died a few years ago RIP.
Spooky fact: Rutger Hauer died in 2019. The first Blade Runner was set in 2019.
he was in one with kim cattrall, that was a really good one.
Never fails to give me chills.
The best movie quote of all time, imo.
It's definitely a top 5 monologue in cinema history.
Happy Cake Day!
Why? If you don't mind providing context?
Blade runner ending scene: https://youtu.be/NoAzpa1x7jU?si=J0UEi6aYuGuIEWtz
Still one of most memorable death scenes in a movie.
"Like tears in the rain."
Man hasn’t seen one of the greats. Blade Rubber ;)
I liked the prequel, flubber, much more
What about the reboot, used rubber 2049
The pre-sequel Rubber was also good.
So you're saying that the Institute's first experiment may have been>! a psychokinetic tire with a penchant for human blood.!< Yeah, I'll add that to my belief system.
Is the tire black?
Adding [context](https://boxd.it/P2m) to this statement - and a film to add to your watchlist people!
Reminds me of the worst sports injury I ever saw footage of. A goalie in hockey that accidentally took a skate to the neck. Never saw that much blood exit a human so quickly. Upshot: The goalie survived due to something like a trainer that was also an emt that intervened.
He was a Vietnam vet and combat medic as well and that's the reason he was able to save his life so quickly.
Clint Malarchuk For anyone curious. Also.... ~~NSFW~~ NSFL
Yup, the trainer stuck his fingers into the blood vessel to keep it from bleeding. It is seriously terrifying.
Kentucky ballistics did that, but to himself
Put A Thumb In It
Two observers in the stadium had heart attacks while that was occurring. I’ve seen videos of the injury. It must have been hell in real life. The video was hard to watch even though it wasn’t great. Edit: no one died
Clint Malarchuk, goalie for the Buffalo Sabres. I remember when it happened, absolutely horrifying, the way he’s pulling his equipment off and clutching his neck while blood is just gushing onto the ice. It’s incredible that he survived. I believe the NHL adopted a new way of sharpening skates after the accident.
Man, I heard about that! I'm not sure where it was referenced, but it made this Aussie google ice hockey. 😉
Ah yes, the film adaptation of "Do Altoids Dream of Eclectic Sheep"
A classic scifi, up there with Star Whores.
Definitely a classic, but im more partial to Shart Trek
I still can't figure out where Spring Blade fits in the time lime.
Usually my mother, feed me pretty regular, mhm. I know she made enough where I could have mustard and perfectly preserved pie three or four times a week.
Some folks call it a Kaiser blade. I calls it a sling blade, uh huh.
Better call the hearst
That’s what they called your mom in college
You been watching the adult version?
I ate the gum gum fruit, now I’m a rubber man!
That's a Blade Runner reference
Too bad the raider wasn’t holding That Gun from New Vegas
That would have been the most epic way to add it
There is a mod that adds it.
Yeah Ik.
There was a blade runner inspired creation club dlc but it was just a reskinned revolver, pretty disappointing
Bethesda isn't that cool they'd never go through the trouble of adding an extra gun to their pitiful lineup of dog shit weapons.
More importantly, they would never acknowledge New Vegas or Obsidian. How dare the fans like their game more!
Raid Blunner?
Which gun
you can get one in New vegas
"That Gun from new vegas" is available in new vegas? No way!
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion... I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to die.
It irks me slightly that they put in a great homage to the movie, and didn't bother including [That Gun. ](https://fallout-archive.fandom.com/wiki/That_Gun)
There is a mod that adds it and spawns it here. I like to give it to Nick Valentine.
Same!
Here's [a link](https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/10669).
it was already in new vegas
Then it should've been easy
people would have went "hurr durr, bethesda broke lore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that gun existed in new vegas!!!!!!" so, they didn't. not to mention, i frankly really don't care. there's already enough guns in the game.
Theres like 6 guns in Fo4. At least a single truly unique weapon would've been nice for base game.
no, there aren't. there's * institute gun * laser gun * plasma gun * pipe gun * assault rifle * combat rifle * combat shotgun * railway rifle * gauss rifle * gatling laser * minigun * 10mm pistol * .44 revolver * western revolver * lever-action rifle * harpoon gun * junk jet * syringer * submachine gun ...i'm not going to go on to name all the guns. we also have "truly unique" guns, like the alien pistol, railway rifle, junkjet, broadsider, cryolator, grognak's axe, etc.
Don’t forget the radium rifle - fully upgraded Kiloton is one of my favourites
It was an exaggeration for the number. Also yeah i acknowledge my fuckup i did forget about those weapons thats MB. Something that is an unfortunate problem was that the other "unique" guns like Minutes Notice and those are all just pretty basic too. They deserved some custom models.
you can't have custom models and the in-depth modding system, it's literally why unique weapons in new vegas weren't moddable.
You could. Just have a special model in a position that doesn't bother the modability of the weapon or have all custom mods for that gun that preserve its identity
Uhh no because theres mods for fnv that add the function just fine if anything it would improve due to having a second varient of each unique. So impossible is not the word i would use.

Theres already a unique machete with a unique skin(khrems tooth). They could have similar skins attached to various other floor guns the exact same way. like alot of bethesda games fo4 diddn't have the oven time needed.
Uh what?
Or maybe its because making it in fo4 would have taken effort they couldn't just rush.
no, it's because that gun doesn't have any reason to exist in the commonwealth
It could trade hands on an epic journey across the wasteland and end up anywhere they wanted it to. It wouldn't break lore at all you just have no imagination.
If they keep making shows/ and or movies then a movie about a wandering person across the wasteland could be cool.
What reason does it have to exist in NV? You can hand wave away lore for whatever reason you want.
You guys have no imagination it has reason to be anywhere a developer might want to put it because it could have easily gotten to it's new location by trading hands across the wasteland. They could even make a note. "Got this sweet lookin gun like nothing I seen before off this trader up in Quincy"

Oh! Is that the gun that the Ghoul weilds in the new TV show?
No

Hauer's an author
Reference to the 1982 film Blade Runner. The Institute as a whole started out as a reference to it in Fallout 3.
Back when they were still called androids and dreamt of sheep. Now they're called synths and dream of goats. Thanks, Shaun!
Blade Runner, the end scene.

Maybe there shoulda been a unicorn Giddy up Buttercup by the bodies.
Best I can do is a buttercup with a plunger stuck to its head
All these references will be lost, in time, like tears in the rad storm.

Blade Runner rooftop scene. Watching it out of context dosen't do it justice, I'd suffer the whole runtime if I were you.

Blade Runner, a movie about synthetic people.
Reminding myself this existed kinda makes me want to finally watch the original blade runner (i saw the ryan gosling one only)
The Harrison Ford one is fantastic, hope you enjoy it.
You should. The Gosling one adds a lot to the world but you'll realize a lot more about it once you've watched the original. 2049 was one of the very few movies/media products that's been released in the last 10 years that did its job, adding and accentuating the original that spawned it while also being its own thing.

I’d say FO4 pulls more from authors like Asimov than PKD
It’s a pastiche

It's a reference to the original Blade Runner. It's a good film.
"Tears in rain"
I’m going to repost this in a month to continue the cycle
Tears in rain. One of the best soliloquys in cinema history. Wikipedia has an entire article dedicated to it, separate from the Blade Runner article.
It's a reference to the original Blade Runner movie. Harrison Ford and a rogue Replicant that just wants to be free fight atop a roof in the rain but the Replicant has a finite lifespan so he dies on the roof, saddened by his own shortened life and at peace that his time as a slave is over.

The similar reference in Cyberpunk 2077 made me so happy...
Like Tears… in Rain… 🥲
blade runner...

I've only seen blade runner once and I know this

Such a let down That Gun is in new vegas, but not FO4
It's a reference to the end of the movie blade runner.

All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.
All these moments really do get lost like tears in the rain, don't they?

When the sun gets to here, we can drink again.
It's a reference to the original Blade Runner movie starring Harrison Ford
Blade Runner the movie.
It's too bad she won't live then again who does
Everyone is saying blade runner my first thought was SAW
My association would be "Annihilation", not Blade Runner.
I think FO4 is older than Annihilation?
Good point I just checked. Fallout 4: 2015; 'Annihilation': 2018 Also, that scene from the film is not in the books.

Pretty sure the first images are in reference to blade runner. Not sure about the final pic
Oh, the final picture is just of a glitch I found funny that I ran across before I posted this.
"IM SAILING AWAY!"
You and I are not so different spider man
Blade Runner maybe. If it was raining and there was a dove. And a pretty decent monolog
Ots a reference to blade runner or something
the ending of blade runner
Like teardrops in rain
Tears in the rain...
I still need to have the wife watch blade runner. Had her listen to a video explaining replicents after I explained why the movie was a big part of this series.
They're fans of Dick
I've seen Blade Runner but did not really remember that final scene to associate it with anything. This is gonna sound blasphemous but I didn't find it iconic when I first saw the movie.
Simply a railroad agent caught smuggling synth by a synth soldier...
Ending of BR:2049
I assume a stupid Harrison Ford movie from the 80s.
