Obshitian adds 'ghost people' to the Fallout universe

[SimpleComplexity]

Ghost people apparantly need to be decapitated or gibbed to be killed; Shooting them elsewhere stuns them.

This is how they look like:

Explain this shit to me.

 

[Angthoron]

Looks kinda like a hologram? But they can be killed through decapitation? What?

 

[Grunker]

Wha? Need to know more, but it looks a retarded idea of the bat.

Obshitian is so amazing and good and great I'm like OH MY GOD I would give C. Avellone a rimjob and lift him to the sky in ecstasy. Obshitian doesn't fuck around with my favorite RPGs and they're so much more betterer and imaginative nad creative with there gaemz ima liek OH MY GOD they're so good I would give C.

Bethesda, as always, are just reta... Oh wait!

Avellone just added so much depth to Fallout universe! It's so much more alive now! Thank you Obsidian!!!

 

[Ermm]

Looks like some FAIL nod to Highlander.

 

[Malakal]

Perhaps they are cloaked? Some kind of new stealth boy mutation?

Or simply 'VAMPIRES AND GHOSTS LOL'.

GO , NOW

 

[SoupNazi]

Yeah it does sound more like it's a hologram, perhaps in-universe pretending to be ghosts.

:D Racofer now watch how Obshitian fanboys will come up with an excuse and explain 'ghost people' logically and claim they are a perfect fit into the fallout univere.

Some more info can be found on the vault wiki:

The climate control and air conditioning system within the facility began to spit toxins into the surrounding city causing a slow cloud and haze to form over the area - which proved lethal to anyone who tried to explore the city. Only a mysterious group called the Ghost People survived to call the city home, trapped inside what appeared to be hazmat suits and never speaking to their victims... only capturing them alive and dragging them away to the depths of the city deep within.

Protected by Hazmat suits, yet morphed into something no longer quite human, the Ghost People are the only ones to walk the Cloud. Anyone who isn't savagely killed is dragged away, to a fate that, while uncertain, is probably much worse than dying in the streets.

They are very mysterious, they don't talk and have glowing eyes.

I want to meet one of these Obshitian fanboys.

And modern casino ventilation system, releasing deadly toxins in general population.

Only FAGGOTS actually like games.

 

[Konjad]

Err... you're okay with ghouls but not with ghosts? Come on...

So the game takes place in the sub-setting of Final Fantasy 7, where Cloud's parasites gain control of his armpits?

 

[Ermm]

Main guestion still remains.
Mothership Zeta vs This.
Which is better and why?

 

[Loriac]

Err... you're okay with ghouls but not with ghosts? Come on...

The whole ghouls thing was a bit retarded, but sort of consistent with people in the 50s not really knowing about radiation and its effects (still a stretch, I'll grant)

Ghosts are simply retarded, full stop. It makes no sense whatsoever, and the treatment of it is lulzy to say the least - ok, so the point of a ghost is that its incorporeal, and so to kill it i have to dismember it into bloody bits... ummmm ok.

Kinda makes you hope that this piece of 'lore' stays on the xbawks only where it clearly belongs.

 

[IronicNeurotic]

How are these ghosts? They are visible god damn holograms. It would actually be pretty easy to explain them away. Especially in Fallout cannon.

...

Oh sorry Codex in retard mode. Nevermind.

 

[Oesophagus]

Ok, so we now have zombies, ghosts and vampires. Let's try and guess the next step. My bet is:

well hello there, wastelander

 

[Heechee]

However retarded it is, ghosts in the Fallout universe are not exactly new. There was a ghost in Fallout 2 and in Tactics.

 

[Radisshu]

1. That hologram is obviously not one of the "ghost people", as they are described as having glowing eyes and wearing Hazmat suits.

2. They're probably some kind of mutant, which fits into the Fallout setting. OH WAIT THEY'RE CALLED GHOST PEOPLE THAT MEANS THEY'RE GHOSTS LOL AVELLOBSIDIOLOLIAN ADDED GHOSTS WTF FFFFUUU CREATURES WITH SUPERNATURAL NAMES DON'T FIT IN THE FALLOUT SETTING

EDIT: In short, Codex, stop acting stupid plz

 

[Oesophagus]

Well, if obsidian's idea of 'going back to the roots' is taking the most retarded lulz from F2 then...

Where is this awesome writing of a great quality that Obsidian supposedly added to Fallout universe?

Also lawl this thread already gets people who try to invent logical explanation for a yet another rape of Fallout's setting. I bet if the next post had the news about how Obsidian has nothing to do with it because it's Emil's invention came we would be seeing them flip flopping about how much of a retard Emil is.

And that makes it okay.
