And Wyrmie, "high regard" is the pink floss you put on those BOS assholes.
First, The Glow? The fucking place is dangerous as fuck, and we only have a few medical pills to fix the radiation dose. Those crispy as fuck BOSs lying right there? They got their advanced armors on. A death sentence for the dumb barb wanting to join the frat, that's what it is.
Second, Mariposa? Those escorts of ours are there strictly for the perimeter guards, and they outrank VD so he couldnt order them to accompany him and his squad inside. His rank? Is that Squire or Bottom-ranker, I dont remember. Basically he took down the whole base on the other side of the gate by his own dime, with his own people. BOS lost nothing.
Dont listen to what flowery and flattery words they use, look at what they has done. Judging them by that criteria and Brotherhood of Steel show their cloven feet.

Man, after exploring V13 and getting this kind of line thrown by the Overseer, I'm starting to hate the sequel more for throwing in the GECK.
That retcon killed any semblance of logic when the Overseer refused to leave Vault. We get it, people aren't skilled enough to survive out there. But we have GECK for fuck's sake! THREE OF THEM even, take it to Shady Sands and turn it into Shady Green or something!

U stupid? The man is old, and wasteland town making is a young man's endeavour. Going out mean he's going to step down, will he nil he. Think a despot will risk his position of demigod inside the Vault for the betterment of his charges and/or people outside?
EDIT: and GECK look like an agri-kit: highquality seeds, replicable fertilizers and stuffs. It will help the crop but everything else: cut down trees to make houses, hunting dangerous mutated animals, etc... are going to by hands. Strong hands of youth.

He can control the GECK. He who controls the GECK, Controls the Vault. He who controls the Vault. Controls the Citizens.
Vault-Wiki source:
The whole purpose of the Vault is to...Leave. Rebuild. If the GECK is taken out of the equation then we'd have the Overseer just acting like a power-mad douche he is, instead of being a retard like Loghain of Ferelden who's sitting on a solution (a big army to beat the Darkspawn) yet does nothing to fight it.
Vault-Wiki source:
He's got the bargaining chip. He might be irrelevant, but he will live comfortably, perhaps in a nice, outside world...in the garden of eden. Or some shit that F2 Vault City utopia led us to believe.

LOOK! He's, at that time, is the demigod despot of the Vault. If they had gone out, at best he would have been a very respected councilor. But in any event he would have none of his current power. You ever see any despot voluntarily give up their power of death and life?
And I want to remind you of the skeletal remains outside the Vault door. Why did it lie there right outside the door, seemingly die of rat but I suspect die of starvation and/or thirst? Why did they not open it to let him in or rescue him? And why our VD doesnt seem to know about that corpse? A cover-up dead by exile? Or something more sinister?

Any wiki that treats Fallout 3 bullshit as canon should be added to the Codex collective ignore list.
LESS CANON-TOMFOOLERY, MORE JUNKTOWN!
06 What has been seen...
Days later, we finally arrived at Junktown.
How's your wounds, Ian?
I've recovered most of 'em. Thanks to you.
No problem. Let's look around, see if they can help us find this Water Chip.
Say, what are you doing here? What is this place?
What does it look like? I'm a guard, and I'm keeping an eye out for strangers like you. And this place is called Junktown. Hey, don't laugh. I happen to like the name myself. We mostly do trading. Sometimes we trade with those stuck up bastards from the hub. Hey, you're not from the Hub are you?
Me? No, I'm not from the Hub.
Hmmm. OK. It's not our place to ask questions. Have a good day and don't make any trouble.
Nice guy.
They're just grunts. Can't blame them. Like I said, you can't rely on smart mouth alone to fix problems in the wasteland.
Oh look, another guard. Maybe this one can tell us more about this town.
Can you give me the big picture on Junktown?
Me and my men here work for Killian Darkwater. We keep some order in this town, dealing with all of the murderers, thieves, and other scumbags who come in from the desert. If you want my advice, you'll also stay away from Gizmo. That fathead runs a crooked operation, but we just haven't been able to prove anything. He and his lackeys, the Skulz, are going to take the fall sometime soon, if Killian has anything to say about it.
Good to know that someone's keeping the peace around here, thanks.
Hey, it's our job. But it's good to know that someone appreciates it. Thanks.
Say, do you know anything about a Water Chip?
A what? Sorry, man. Try Killian.
Alright. *Looks at his Pipboy*
Less than four months left...I better hurry this up.
Hmm. What are these?
Oh, those are brahmin.
These look like...cows? Why do they have two heads?
I don't know. You're the science guy.
Hang on a sec...
It's gotta be mutation. No doubt about it.
Pity it ain't an extra thigh. Would've made more tasty steaks.
Looks like a clinic. I should stock up on stims.
I need to see the Doc.
Very friendly. I guess that means we can see him. Eh, he's not at the back?
Try the manhole.
Whoa, wait!
I look around and grew alarmed. Body parts strewn across the surgical table, an ice box, slightly stained in blood lies on the floor. His assistant is carrying...a piece of something? These look...human.
Why should I?
I'm no danger to you!
Brian! They're cannibals!
No wait, Ian! Let's talk this out.
Why should I let you leave?!
Look, you're obviously more powerful than I am, you got your assistant right here and two guards up top...
That is true. Unfortunately, you have seen to much. Hmm. You must prove your sincerity. And I might be able to make a little profit out of this deal.
What do you mean?
I will take something from you. And then we will be even.
Oh, money? Sure...no pro-
Excellent!
Wait-What are you-AAAAAAAAAAAAA

That's something new I never knew about (assuming it's not edited, that is). I usually killed that guy the moment I discovered he traded with human parts.

Yes, RK47, this is the point when you reload. It's what I did when he took my character's eye.
Or perhaps use your Doctor skills. Ha! That might work. Perhaps find a Doctor's Bag. Or go back to Vault 13, and use the top of the line medical technology to get your eye damage fixed.

Doctor works! Actually any number of means work.
But for what? To deprive Codex of an eyepatch Brian with the occasioned ARGGG Matey! God forbid! Especially for that smartmouth.

07 Cannot be unseen
Brian! We gotta kill these bastards!
Now, now. Mind your language.
I...Oh god! Ian...I.I can't see!
Ian...help me up the ladder....NOW!
With great difficulty, I grasp at the iron ladder and make my way up.
I...I'm going to need some time...
Take your time, Brian.
I carefully clean my wound with some water, carefully cleaning the empty eye socket with some cloth. Finally, I insert a gauze into the eye socket. The pain was extreme, but it was either that or dying from infection and stumbling blind while doing so. Finally, a dark cloth was applied to the missing eye.
It's done..I..I can see again.
Ok, let's leave and tell the guards about this psycho!
No. We're to make sure this bastard doesn't get away with this.
Let's go.
Back again to give the other eye?
Here, catch, you son of a bitch!
Get some!
Ian finishes off the midget with three well-placed shots. The Doc jams a stimpack syringe on himself before charging at me, swinging his fists at my face.
You should've left, fool! Now I'm going to take from you EVERYTHING!
Die, creep!
Ian's shot caught the doctor's sides and knocked him down. He howls in pain.
Arrrghhhhhhh...You!...You too, I will have yours!
You can have this.
I knelt down, pressing the SMG on his back before squeezing the trigger.
One less monster in this world.
Gods, Brian. I'm really sorry.
Not your fault. *stands up and grabs the dead midget's SMG*
Here. For the two guards upstairs.
Let's finish this.
Say hello to my little friend.
Ian rushes out to meet the guards, but in their rage, they completely ignored him and rushes at me in the next room.
Which suits me just fine.
Ian gives the guard a shot on the back. The heavily wounded guard limped to the doorway, seeking to escape.
The other one stayed behind and fired a shot at my chest. I winced and took aim at his chest with my SMG before releasing a burst.
I'm just here to buy some medicine, cocksuckers!
The guard dance the dance of death before dropping, with extra ventilation on his chest.
Ian takes aim at the fleeing guard and squeezed the trigger.
Looks like we closed this clinic for good. Search the bodies, there may be something we can use. Sons of bitches. *Pats his eye patch* You were right, Ian.
Huh?
Guns do solve problems.
Ian nodded grimly before proceeding to search the corpses. This is turning out to be a very costly trip.

Oh well, an eye is not too high a price for that life lesson.
Actually, factoring in Fallout 2, Vault 13 is revealed to be a control group vault that is supposed to remain closed, and/or used by the Enclave when the FEV experiment is ready. Same as Vault 101, basically. The Overseer's stated reasons are different from his real reasons, though "he's under orders" is kind of a weak explanation to let people die of thirst.
