Thought exercise: I want you to imagine for a second how RPGcodex would react if Bethesda decided to break the fourth wall in Fallout 5 and let your character make a wisecrack about Trump in the middle of dialogue. There’s a lot of other little things like that throughout FO2 but the devs don’t try to hide their political leanings… This streak of leftist writing extends to how the ghouls/super-mutants are characterized in-game as well, where they are, for lack of a better word, “humanized” in contrast to how FO1 portrays them (ontologically evil/dumb/feral races in a fantasy roleplaying game? That sounds like something Hitler would like, so let’s make the fucking deathclaws misunderstood and oppressed to show how forward thinking we are!)įO2 even has political jokes about how dumb and immoral republicans are, just straight up breaking the 4th wall because the leftist developers couldn’t help themselves. Published Fallouts NCR faction has seen five different presidents from Aradesh to Kimball, all of whom influenced the organization in various ways. The imagery is made really explicit during the main story when the fascist-supremacist Enclave wipes out the tribal/“indigenous” village you start out in (it’s like colonialism! White people are… Le bad!).
Not only that but the Enclave, aka the big bads, are transparent analogs for fascists/evil nazis who’s goal is to eradicate entire swathes of the wasteland because they believe they’re genetically impure. In addition, the leader of the highly advanced and hierarchical Vault City is an intelligent and capable black woman.įurthermore, Fallout 2 was the first western video game to ever feature gay marriage, with the male/female player having the ability to marry a man/woman respectively, if they so choose.
#Fallout gamepedia aradesh skin
The founder of NCR, the biggest civilization in the western United States, is a man with dark brown skin (this was established in FO1 of course, but still, also Tandi appears to be brown in FO1 but her skin has become sallow with age by the events of FO2).
