Question for people on my timeline: If you were a Vault Overseer in Fallout, what insane experiment would you oversee?
Vehrec
deerleisure has already called dibs on the gender-role reversal Vault.
Bolt Vanderhuge
The experiment where every Dweller has a modulator placed in their throats that change random words into goofy sound effects.
Bolt Vanderhuge
Why? Why not?.
majinken
The one built upon an Indian Burial site, in an attempts to purely see what the worst thing that could happen really is
Vehrec
That's nice Ken but we really need to get some serious mad science on here.
Bolt Vanderhuge
Or how about a vault where the only way to air grievances is to put on a monster costume and scare someone while concealing who they really are?
Vehrec
How about entombing a few extra indians in the cement of the Vault to really kickstart that haunting?
Uncontrollable
I would just have punishment and reward inflicted at random to see what people would get conditioned to do.
Vehrec
The rest of these are all good ideas for Vaults and you have approval to begin construction immediately.
Bolt Vanderhuge
And to see if you can get away with it if it werent for those meddling Dwellers
Vehrec
Damn, I don't know which idea of yours I prefer better
Bolt Vanderhuge
. Probably gonna go for the sound effects one though.
Bolt Vanderhuge
I had fun just thinking of the most useless social experiments I could. XD
Vehrec
Useless they are indeed.
majinken
Why stop with putting dead indians in the coment walls
majinken
The indians ARE the walls!
Vehrec
It'll be tricky to source that many bones, but I'll get our people on it.
majinken
Look, when the bombs drop, nobody is going to miss some bodies being missing, either from the ground or where ever. We need to be resourceful.
dragon time
fursona vault
Bolt Vanderhuge
I vote for that vault that the radiation shielding to be done by the lowest bidder.
Vehrec
done
Doctor Ansem
I would make a Vault of the Necrodancer
Doctor Ansem
Everyone has to move to the beat of whatever music is playing while out in public
Bolt Vanderhuge
That brings a joyous tear to my eye.
Vehrec
Anyone not dancing will be shot.
Doctor Ansem
Better keep that groove modifier up bruh
Where Is Harkan
Proposal: See if we can convince the vault dwellers to believe that you escape the vault by digging down rather than going up.
Where Is Harkan
See how big we can get the vault through excavation as they try to escape
Vehrec
Oooo, I like it. Probably gonna need to nuke the original entrance to convince them that up is not viable.
Where Is Harkan
Or at least convince them it had been nuked
Where Is Harkan
But no I'm talking completely reinvent the shape of the world
dragon time
you know what, cowboy theme
dragon time
everyone dresses like they're in a western, fill the vault with tumbleweeds and cows in the basement
dragon time
all your wealth is measured in cows
dragon time
maybe split it into tribes and cattle rustle like vikings
Doctor Ansem
Ooh ooh I forgot
Doctor Ansem
On Saturdays, it's Conga Cappa Kappa time. For every 8 beats you move seven and skip one
Doctor Ansem
If you mess it up a giant gorilla homes in on you and smashes you brains in
Vehrec
I am liking the Cowboys and Rustlers theme, but it might be easier in VR than in a real vault. Still, I'll have people look into it.
je suis groot
force people to produce unique, impactful works to earn rank in the vault and see what people come up with. can be inventions/art/whatever
je suis groot
mostly i'd want to see if it would advance the vault in technology even further and/or if mad scientists get bred
je suis groot
but if everyone just wants to paint or write crappy poems, i don't mind either
je suis groot
either way, it's a cultured vault
