I love art that heals my heart <3 and inspires me to pick up a pencil <3 THANK YOU for creating and for your wonderful blog OP!!
Hey, man, c'mere. Listen. Get in real close, this is important.
You're gonna make stuff again. You're gonna make stuff you're proud of. You're gonna make stuff you're excited to share. You're going to feel that overwhelming drive to create, not just the frantic I want to want to you're stuck in now. You're going to have awesome ideas, and you're going to make them into reality. You're going to create again. You're still an artist. You're still a writer. You're still home to the same passion you had before. You'll find it again. It's not gone. It's just resting. Let it rest. You're going to make stuff again. I promise.
I'm a big fan of New Vegas, and I enjoy discussing the factions and conflicts of the Mojave to this day. My question is related to the Legion: if you play as a female courier and support the legion, would that open up the path for other women to take more active roles in the military? Given how the legion is constantly adapting, and Ulysses doesn't seem too surprised if you're a female legionairre, it doesn't seem that far fetched.
Thanks. I know this doesn’t really answer the question, but I’d like to use your particular question to address something more broadly. I think it may help avoid some frustration for people who ask me speculative questions that I don’t answer.
For reasons stemming largely from my personal tastes and my academic corruption by postmodernists, I think it is actively bad/harmful for me to color outside of the lines of the content I’ve helped create. If I write the story of Joshua Graham and Daniel, define them within the context of the game, and describe the outcomes of player choices within the context of the game, I think I should refrain from speculating on those characters/events beyond the game’s boundaries.
There are a few reasons for this. First, it’s not my setting and they’re not my characters. If Bethesda wanted to have Arcade, Joshua Graham, and Caesar go on a space trip with the Mothership Zeta aliens and fly to Venus, that’s their call. I don’t have any say in the matter.
Second, even if it legally were my intellectual property, I feel like putting down stakes outside of the boundaries we created in the game is limiting for future authors. Not only Bethesda, but also gamers and modders. I don’t think that is a good or fair way to exert authorial influence.
This also extends to “approving” or “disapproving” of ideas or content either implicitly or explicitly. My opinion is no more important than anyone else’s. It’s not that I don’t have opinions about someone’s companion mod, their speculative fan fiction, or the entirety of Fallout 4. I have opinions about all of these things, but it is the nature of many fans to latch onto my opinions as though they have more weight and validity than I feel they do. For that reason, I almost never give my opinion on these things. That being said, you’re not missing much. I wouldn’t be saying anything that hadn’t already been covered ad nauseam by other people on the internet.
Finally, my intentions aren’t important. Well, I think they’re important in a certain context to understand what we were trying to do and why we failed to execute on that (e.g. the desired genetic diversity of Honest Hearts tribes vs. what we shipped with for technical reasons). Even that is, for me, a grey area that I prefer to not dive into unless I believe it can be helpful for other people. It has no value for “absolving” us of the mistakes we’ve made, but it can help people understand how ideas can be malformed in implementation. Essentially, they can serve as cautionary tales.
Where this really applies is things like cut content, incomplete notes/stories found in the world, and even Joshua Graham’s few sentences of untranslated speech to Salt-Upon-Wounds. If it didn’t wind up in the game, it’s not there, period. The reasons may have been driven by scheduling, gameplay pacing, or a purposeful choice to make something ambiguous, but in all cases, it was never in the shipped product.
I get messages from a lot of creative and curious people asking questions like the one you posed. I think it is better and more productive for these questions to be asked in communities where the ideas can be debated, where you will (hopefully) be forced to defend your opinions and push others to defend theirs. Or don’t ask them at all and just create content – stories in your head, fan fiction, illustrations, whatever – that explore the ideas that you have. Yeah, there are things that we wanted to do for post-Hoover Dam reactivity in Fallout: New Vegas that we didn’t get to do. For someone who’s interested in modding in post-HD reactivity, what they think should happen is infinitely more important than what I wanted to do.
It would be contrary to the spirit of creative expression for me to opine on the validity or quality of speculation that pokes past the borders of what I have directly created. I wish that my opinions were just taken at the same value as anyone else’s, but I know that they often are not – and can even be used as cudgels between passionate and disagreeing fans. I prefer to build these worlds, characters, and ideas as they are needed and leave their boundaries blank, open, and as free to individual interpretation as possible.
This is one of the reasons why, if the stories of the Mojave Wasteland are never revisited in an official Fallout product, I take great solace in knowing that I will never have to invalidate a single player’s choices by making a “canonical” ending. They’re yours, and right, forever.
High key want to print this out and stick it on my wall

this is written like one of those fallout terminal entries where during the last entry the author succumbs to radiation poisioning mid sentence
Inktober is really a tough challenge, and I didn't necessarily have time to spend three hours on each entry.
So I tried different things, trying to find some fun in it. In particular, with this Microsoft Minesweeper crossover from Windows 98 imagined in 3D view (did I mention I'm an old person?)
SOOOOO GOOOD!!!! AGAIN!! 😍💛✨ ah Sciel my favourite :') 👏👏 your art and style is so beautiful 😌
My entry for @hydroflorix ‘s Massachusetts MAP project! This is my first ever colored frame by frame work and I’m proud of how it turned out @_@!
MAP will be released November 15th! Ive had the pleasure of working with so many talented artists and I'm looking forward to seeing it all together!
Edit: Pipboy was missing. Fixed!
My day is brightened immediately upon seeing any Commonwealth Cass art 💛💛💛 AND THIS ONE IS ANOTHER LEVEL 😍 wow 👏👏
As it should have been.
