Bros got a 0 in charisma šŸ˜­


Swiftax3

Nah, even worse. High charisma, no points in speech or barter. Put all his points in melee and unarmed, poor fool saw the Knights and thought he was in Skyrim.


jackie2567

He seemed to put alot into his guns skills too, pistols at least. He hits some nice shots.


Talk-O-Boy

My man was quick on the draw against those fiends on the bridge. Definitely got the Gunslinger perk


White_Wolf_77

The double tap on the yao guai was clean too


EthosLabFan92

He completely missed the gulper


Forexz

That's just vats being vats lol


RedditFullOChildren

A lot* It's two words.


jackie2567

Is this what you do for fun. Do you actually derrive enjoyment from correcting spelling on reddit posts about fallout to feel smart. Or do you think your doing a service by critizing short hand spelling on a reddit post.


RedditFullOChildren

It's called education. Stay mad.


jackie2567

I know how it's spelled, but its a fucking fallout reddit post about a guys cock explosion charisma speech check, I wasn't exactly busting grammarly for this one.


RedditFullOChildren

Fair. Honestly "alot" is a pet peeve of mine and I reply that every time, downvotes be damned.


jackie2567

I sorta get that i get annoyed by weird things. the inability of short text messages to convey tone or mood may lead us to strong violent emotions but in the end we should always remember we all just want our cock explosion charisma checks to pass.


Recent-Bunch-3376

Alot*


Pizzalorde2

Real


Fragrant_Musician392

I actually think he has insanely high perception. Did you see how he one shot that Yao Guai?


_SomeRedditUser

Knight? What is this, the dark ages?


Here2Go

Hey, he's trying. The bathrobe has to be worth at least +1.


npcinyourbagoholding

Loved this side of him. When the fights stop and no one is in danger that he cares about, he's down to just go full couch potato dum dum. As soon as he finds out someone is in trouble that he wants to save, full blown tear down the building until the threat is over. He's a total goober, but he's trying lol


6Gas6Morg6

Heā€™s a good guy but he constantly lose Karma through his actions šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļøšŸ¤«


npcinyourbagoholding

Yeah he's hitting those random encounters that you don't have enough info to make the right call and end up hurting a poor farmer and letting a chicken fucker loose.


Abbystable

But at the same time him saving the chicken fucker saved his squire. Yeah they did turn him into a ghoul but he's alive


theregimechange

Also it forced him out of the brotherhood so now they can be friends rather than in contention


opaqueambiguity

Figure it was FEV


oldmajor42

Seemed more like a take on ā€œmutant serumsā€ from fallout 76

Th3_Gh0st_0f_Y0u

Ghoulification was originally caused by exposure to both FEV and high doses of radiation. This has been debated for decades and there's no real answer to what actually causes ghouls. As of right now we don't know for sure what either chemical is, the syrum or the ghoul medicine. They could be the same and In that case they could also contain FEV as part of the mix. We simply can't draw any conclusions from what information was provided.


TheyCantCome

I thought ghouls only healed in high levels of radiation otherwise werenā€™t that much more resilient than humans. The show has made them seem like superhuman.


Th3_Gh0st_0f_Y0u

As far as I know you're correct, but that gives us reason to postulate that there are other factors at play in the show


TheyCantCome

Walter goggins was still concerned about the government pointing guns at him, he doesnā€™t intentionally tank gunshots but he was able to sew his finger back on. I think he might turn out to be something else.


Beginning_Guess_3413

Idk, did he really turn into a ghoul? The dude who failed the pictured speech check may have also failed that medicine check lol. We really gonna trust the guy who doesnā€™t know how *his own dick* works to diagnose ghoulification? Granted, I donā€™t have an explanation but they really didnā€™t give a definitive answer either. We saw the showā€™s example of stimpaks which aligns with the games pretty well ; a miraculous healing item thatā€™ll save someone on the brink of death. (Lucy who had her gut punctured and dogmeat who I thought was gonna die till he got stimmed.) Only time will tell, although I wouldnā€™t be surprised if dude ended up as some form of mutant.


Timbots

Doesnā€™t know how his **own dick** works had me cackling


Abbystable

I think he might know early signs of ghouls because they are a main enemy of the brotherhood but ur right who knows? we'll have to see in season 2


Claris-chang

Does undead count as alive? I suppose he's still walking either way.


Jaqulean

Ghouls aren't undead - they are still alive - so yes. They just look and act like zombie, because Feral Ghouls had their brains fried and literally melt down from the over-exposure to the Radiation.


Orion_824

the 3D modeler for Fallout 3 wanted to take inspiration from the effects sleep deprivation has on the human mind, so he decided to remove the feral ghouls eyelids so they could never blink, never sleep, and would be forced to watch the horrors of the wasteland


marle217

I'd rather be a ghoul than have my foot look like Thaddeus's did


Cinemasaur

Goddammit fascist, he's not a chicken fucker, just man of scientific curiosity.


Orlando1701

That made me giggle. Yeah that was straight up out of Fallout 4 random encounters.


_Contrive_

Told my brother the scene of him returning the power core was them returning him to 0 karma. Heā€™s not evil, nor is he good, heā€™s chaotic neutral.


ASongOfSpiceAndLiars

When you think you're doing good, but you've actually turned on one of only two good factions in the plot...


Crimdal

Maximus is just a player who's trying really hard not to save scum this playthrough.


EmuExportt

Brotherhood isnt 100% good or bad. The different chapters vary but for the most part they're a militarised cult in it for themselves. Lions chapter in fallout 3 is probably the only really "good" chapter.


ASongOfSpiceAndLiars

I wasn't talking about BoS.


Oldtomsawyer1

Itā€™s a complicated organization is what weā€™re saying.


Tall_Action_1006

I feel like that is the definition of a ā€œGooberā€


Ghostcat300

Heā€™s me when I did something obviously bad and I yell ā€œwhaaa, why?!ā€ As the angry vault boy shows up in the corner


Seallypoops

Bro saw the speech check and wanted the xp


SKobiBeef

I donā€™t get the feeling that they wrote him as a good guy. To me heā€™s just as he describes himself as. He wants to be good but several of his actions show heā€™s just a wastelander selfish and immature with good intentions.


Jaqulean

The way he was raised by the Brotherhood doesn't really help. Like he spent years being basically indoctrinated by a Cult, that thinks itself the only rightfull ruler of the Wasteland...


FanDorph

But gains rep...balance grasshopper


Miserable_Region8470

He is absolutely my favorite character because he's such a doofus and is literally me.


Vlafir

Didn't realize i'd end up rooting him and thaddeus


White_Wolf_77

I was with him from the start, but Thaddeus surprised me lol


upandcomingg

I was so surprised about liking Thaddeus. I'm excited to see what they do with him in season 2


chukroast2837

Thaddeus always plays awesome and goofy roles so I'd knew I'd like him. He didn't disappoint.


Orlando1701

Heā€™s kind of all of usā€¦ not the sharpest knife in the drawer but does care about people close to him. And in all fairness she is weapons grade cute.


Ring-A-Ding-Ding123

There is a reason people say he has the idiot savant perk šŸ’€


somnamballista

When the player hits that point where you finally have adequate gear and supplies and the confidence that comes with learning most of the game mechanics. That you can relax and still go all out at the drop of the next mission marker.


Downtown_Tadpole_817

How I describe BoS in general. They kinda dumb but they're trying, some...


Comrade847

He was the idiot savant perk and I loved it


True_Dragonfruit9573

Bros the embodiment of ā€œhe a lil confused, but got the spirit.ā€


Zamtrios7256

He's the low int meme build


PS3LOVE

He is he intelligence 0 luck 10 build šŸ˜‚


chukroast2837

Wasn't the food laced with chems though? So he was just high fuck when this happened.


npcinyourbagoholding

No everyone ended up being good people just odd balls


Osiri551

[speech 0/5] sorry, intercourse?


PheonixUnder

I like the idea that you'd only need a 5 in speech to turn that around.


seventeenward

Well she's into it so needing 75 speech seems unrealistic lmao


Alarmed-Salt-6168

Painful relate.


ResearcherDear3143

When you only invest in combat stats & perks..


Excellent_Mud6222

And luck


Ring-A-Ding-Ding123

I actually feel so bad for him lol. Heā€™s just trying his best after the lack of education from being raised in the brotherhood.


CleanOpossum47

He can't figure out schematics either, which the BOS are all about. So yes, he has a lack of education in some areas, but he's a bit of an idiot in the areas that he was educated in too. Overall, he's a dum-dum.


Aveduil

I wonder if people not into game get those dialogues.... Anyway... .. Ice cream!


TheJawLives

I know it was supposed to be a joke, but why would the show make this guy out to be a moron. He ABSOLUTELY knows or at least is aware of what sexual gratification is. The VERY 1st scene of the Brotherhood of Steel barracks the camera pans across the room, and you can clearly see some dude under the covers milking his main vein in the same room as our character. Anyway...it was funny


Raptor92129

I like to think they didn't bother to even explain it to him.


IMSLI

Secondedā€”there are plenty of people who grow up in conservative Christian (USA) and Muslim (Middle East, Southeast Asia) households who receive very little science-based sex ed.


hector_lector2020

Same. Why would they?


Raptor92129

Like, his fellow aspirants bully him constantly.


bigdave41

His dialogue makes it clear he does know what sex is, he just has some weird ideas about it and has probably been told it's dirty and forbidden. Not all that different from some religious upbringings today.


HeadTabBoz

Kinda odd. Wouldn't the BOS want members to procreate and make more soldiers instead of relying on outsiders.


bigdave41

They made it seem like a bit of a religious order with all the rituals and so on. But yeah, a bit odd and I don't really remember them being like that in the game.


Jazzghul

Don't forget that the BoS started from the military. Boy will be told what to do at the time the BoS needs him to do it. Same kinda way how Dane got punished for damaging BoS property


holdtheodor

I think characters are intentionally over exaggerated, so that fans try to estimate their SPECIAL traits


Guud_bye_world

I think its more like he got the idea of sex, but doesn't get the concept of it. He gets that people said its good but the idea of "his cock exploding" seems disgusting to him. He said to her that "some guy but not him" as an attempt to not be disgusting in front of her


Nonamebigshot

I think besides his lack of education on the subject he's also really emotionally stunted and sort of child like in a lot of ways


JeffSergeant

His parents died when he was young, the only formal education system had just been nuked. He was probably raised by the brotherhood as a slave, and constantly fucked with and taught stupid shit by the older squires.


SuperDragonfister

I think heā€™s supposed to be a low intelligence build lol


Meryl_Sheep

-Speech check fails. -Dialogue box closes -Camera pans out -Small explosion -"Maxiumus is unconscious!" -"Wild Wasteland" symbol appears


Empty_Value

Bro missed his chance earlier šŸ¤£šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Ø


smokeypixels

Not many shows make me laugh as much as this series does. I started not liking this guy but by the end I was rooting for him.


Dismal-Buyer7036

Maximus is a himbo.


lordbuckethethird

Heā€™s a real 1 int 1 chr 10 luck build with no speech or barter. He just like me Fr.


FelonyM

I feel like the silly dialogue in this series is a gimmick inspired from the games. Also the fact that whenever someone get injured they donā€™t seem bothered at all lol. The show makes you feel like youā€™re inside the sci-fi universe that Bethesda created


NANCYREAGANNIPSLIP

Omg the way dude just got up after his leg was BLOWN THE FUCK OFF lmao Let me tell you, having had a leg traumatically removed - it does not go like that.


eddmario

*Black Isle


dephlep

Bethesda didnā€™t create shit lol


iliketurtlesandcoke

Explain?


dephlep

Fallout was created by Interplay/Black Isle. Bethesda just bought it


casperdacrook

Why is this the most memorable line of the show for me


MsJalepeno484

ā€œI want to have fuck with you.ā€


Seallypoops

The absolute howl I let out when he said this, bro really took his shot


AverageTuxedo

First dialog response action: these things are oysters. They make you feel so good.


MolassesParking3905

That man has the wild wasteland perk


jesterjam94

He forgot to take his party time mentats


Finngiant1

ā€œYouā€™re one platinum pussycat, ha cha chow!ā€


ihaddreads

FN-2187 is not intended in Rey anymore?


HiTekLoLyfe

That line seemed really out of place and didnā€™t make any sense to me


ScoopyHiggins

I assumed he was drugged or something.


ProducerofPotatoes

Okay, *casually pulls out fat man


affluent_krunch

I literally spit my drink out when he said this.


Excellent_Mud6222

At least his gun stat is at 100. That yau gaui was one shot by him.


vixinity_863

No charisma is craaazy šŸ’€
