It’s honestly probably better if you don’t know anything about the characters. Caitlyn and Vi are pretty different from the game and really the only deep lore cut you’d miss is the Brackern crystals, and that’s probably going to be spoilers for season 2.

Honestly, that’s half the vibe of character creation in Fallout games too. Perfect casting tbh

New red flag dropped?

Locke got hard carried by Jean and his hatchets and we all know it

His foreign relations record includes a hell of a lot of ratfucking the third world, including being so paranoid about communism he ended up pushing quite a few nations into the Soviet sphere when the coups didn’t work (Cuba, cough cough cough) and directly enabling some of history’s greatest monsters when they did, but he is an American president so grade that on a curve I guess

Either way, the solution is more science.

Other than the fact that it/some of it was probably detected in 2023 and all the models do mostly work. Plus the LHC proved the existence of the Higgs Boson.

Yessss run the trains through the collider

First the equator, then orbital, then solar, then system, then GALAXY CLASS BITCHES

I mean, it eliminates at least one concern, I’m sure bears would win the bear vs bear vs man debate

I had a guy whose pitch was “Ok, you’re the president.”

That was the game idea. The whole thing.

“Ok, I did the overall plot. Who’s doing the dialogue?”

It’s not actually necessary if you use a lot of it, but yes, a lot of people do in America. It got caught up in some health scare or another and people said “it’s dairy, right?”

The abandoned city no people lived in or went near because it was corrupted with an evil goo almost as bad as the Dark One himself?

It’s been a while but I don’t recall him even ordering a mass execution of “Darkfriends,” much less a genocide. Even at his most paranoid he deals with people on an individual level.

Entirely possible I just don’t remember it.

Lol

Sure bro. I’ll stop thinking “Russia having a seat at Versailles would have changed history” because it would somehow not change history, and that’s something you can objectively prove, lol.

I’ll tell you what definitely wouldn’t have happened though.

The repeated Bolshevik genocides of Jewish people.

I’ll not comment on your apparent belief that Nazism was some fated historical inevitability, which sure seems like something a Nazi would believe and not a Marxist.

Which is absurd, given how many pulp artists Herbert ripped off.

?

I don’t think Rand counts as either twink or genocidal. The Breaking wasn’t really on him.

Eh, as you mentioned, it was deeply unpopular.

But yes. It would have.

Why would you think changing history would not change history?
