History DevelopersForesight / Fallout

* Characters who are secretly Synths will always drop an "Android Component" when they are killed (these items do not appear in their inventories unless they are dead). The most obvious example is [[spoiler: Harkness]], but in addition, if [[spoiler: Doctor Zimmer]] is killed at the end of "The Replicated Man" he will also drop one, indicating he too is a Synth. What strays into DevelopersForesight is if you kill [[spoiler: Pinkerton]], who is normally essential and thus cannot be killed. If console commands are used to remove his essential status, he will drop an android component.

* The side quest "The Devil's Due" tasks you with retrieving a pristine deathclaw egg, which you can either deliver to Wellingham in Diamond City for 200 caps and the recipe for a deathclaw egg souffle, or return to its mother which lets you pick up the deathclaw gauntlet in its nest. If you return the egg to the nest, then steal it back (making the mother deathclaw hostile) and give it to Wellingham, he says it looks like it was dragged through a sewer, and only gives you 100 caps and no recipe.

* During the scene in which [[spoiler:Kellogg kills your spouse and kidnaps Shaun]], you can't do anything to stop him. Edit the game to kill [[spoiler:Kellog]] however, and the scene changes. The unnamed [[spoiler:Institute]] woman who accompanies him will [[spoiler:wrestle Shaun away from your spouse. As soon as she succeeds, a bullet fired by an unknown assailant kills your spouse. The Institute woman looks around for the gunman, then runs away with Shaun.]]

* Speaking of the Vault-Tec Rep and his test to give you the SPECIAL stats - during normal gameplay you can never actually see his notepad from the written side, as he stands in the way. However, if you enable the noclip cheat and go past him, you'll see on his notepad... the SPECIAL stats.

** The rude interjections are also specific to whatever kind of character you're talking to. For example, rudely pressing while a Robot character is talking will have you mutter "Crazy ass robot..." or something like that, while talking to a senior will have you say "Stupid old man..."

* You can find Clanden's snuff films and present them to Marie Pappas, the head officer of the NCR Embassy's military police, which makes sense but it doesn't present itself as an option to you.

* During “The House Always Wins”, the player is required to kill the Brotherhood of Steel. If the player somehow manages to get the BoS allied with the NCR (normally impossible, as it can only occur during a portion of the NCR main quest that takes place after killing House), the player can inform House of this, and House even has unique dialogue concerning it—mocking the Courier’s decision by pointing out that giving the NCR a powerful ally just puts House’s own plans in jeopardy, and he sends you back out to kill the Brotherhood.

* During your escape from the Vault, Amata offers you a pistol and you have the option to refuse it, telling her she should keep it for defense. During her interrogation by her father and Officer Mack, she'll use the pistol to defend herself and kill Mack. Subsequently she's horrified by what she did and gives the pistol to you then as you head for the escape tunnel. Her dialogue also changes heavily depending on how you've been treating her in previous interactions and what you discussed.

* [[SnakeOilSalesman Griffon]] wears a wig to make all the other ghouls in Underworld believe that his "Aqua Cura" can heal them like he says. If you talk to him while wearing a wig of your own it will grant a special dialogue option to point your matching haircuts, in which case Griffon will try to dismiss it as a coincidence.

--> '''Lone Wanderer:''' Oh great. More evil little girls.
--> '''Protector [=McGraw=]:''' Uh... no.

* If you did the Paradise Lane/Vault 112 main quest before ''Operation Anchorage'', a new line appears when talking about the simulation to the Brotherhood Outcasts.

** In addition, you cannot kill Yes Man without him respawning, avoiding the issue of [[UnwinnableByMistake rendering the game unfinishable]] because you pissed off the three major factions (or killed important [=NPCs=] like Caesar, Ambassador Crocker/Colonel Moore, and Mr. House) and locked yourself out of the other ending routes.

* When you first meet Ranger Milo, he says that if the Courier had a few dozen doses of Psycho, he could use it to get the NCR troopers to take back Nelson, but admits that's not likely. If you actually have 24 or more doses of Psycho, you can offer them to him and he'll be impressed, granting small NCR fame, but not take them, saying he was only joking.
