Since Fallout 3, every single installment of the Fallout Franchise has included mysterious references to strange, Lovecraftian entities hiding behind the world’s curtains. Fallout 4 continued the mystery and now Fallout 76 is expanding upon the bizarre Dunwich company’s objectives in the most insightful way yet.

Oh my god! Okay hear me out, those giant metal faces look so much like the Dwemer bust, and automaton faces! What if when Red mountain erupted, the heart of Lorkan sent them across realities! Across time, and space; They are the “Deep elves”! The dunwich mining company was so interested in what lies below. Crossing reality could have changed them into something more!
bethesda sure loves those big ass statue heads. they are in every game. i wonder what that means
ahoy Nate! you back again not a moment too soon.
You forgot about Pickman too the serial killer from fallout 4, he’s a direct reference to Pickman’s model and I’m sure he probably went crazy from contact with another dimension like in the story too
Damok and Jallad at Tanagra (town)?
When I first found Dunwich Building in 3 I legitimately was hesitant about entering because I had read the Dunwich Horror a day or two before I had found it you know what is funny about that I was willing to go to Deathclaw spawn points and barely take damage I was half way thinking that I would be killed by something invisible or a weird designed Deathclaw
I’m glad to see you making a video again!
Its fun you make half up. But remember. Ppl do drugs and worschip all kind of bullshit irl or games. There is no deep meaning to it. And bethesda makes that stuff for ppl like you that THINK that there is something more. And even raiders can come up with. Get ore. Make stuff. And if you mine stuff shockes are normal. And savety things are often not used. Becouse that takes time and money. And again raiderd use alot of drugs. That explains alot. And ofcourse mining gas helps with halusinations
Amazing things await in the bethesda worlds
I like 76 because it helps lore channels continue. 76 as a game is another matter.
Hear me out here. I have never seen anybody talking about Mama Murphy and her Sight during these videos and I truly believe she is connected to it all.
Mama Murphy's Sight is a super natural ability that while on the surface may appear to be a ploy or scam operated by Mama Murphy but is anything but. If the player fuels her addition she will correctly predict the Sole Survivor's journey up until finding Shaun along with providing unknowable information that can be used to aid the player along their journey. For example she will be able to correctly predict the recall code for Z2-47.
You could just write this off as a writer having fun or a simple gameplay mechanic but if you travel to the Covega Assembly Plant and inspect Jarred's terminal you can find notes from him talking about Mama Murphy and how no matter how many chems he takes he cannot achieve her sight. So why can Mama Murphy achieve the sight where others cannot?
I believe the answer is in her ear rings. More so I believe her ear rings are connected to Lorenzo's city and the Dunwich company. They appear to be designed with the same aesthetics as Lorenzo's crown, but instead of granting immortal life these artifacts grant the power of clairvoyance. However, as they are both very small they may either only be fragments of an originally larger artifact, or they may not be anwhere near as powerful as Lorenzo's crown. As such a human's mind must be extremely lucid in order to reviece 'The Sight'. Hence Mama Murphy is able to see the future using her ear rings, but only while high enough to commune with them.
Just when you think it was over, just when you think he was done.
The only reason I keep returning and playing old fallout games are because of your videos. Keep up the mystery digging thanks so much
Given Bethesda´s level of writing I would not take any of this seriously, nothing has consistency or rhythm, so from 3 to 4 some goofball must have seen the Lovecraft reference and thought it was cool.
Nothing but overdesign easter-eggs in my opinion.
Oh no… The same spark that made me spend 6 months of my life replaying the Fallout series happened the same way 2 years ago.
Thank you Nate. Dusting off the Fallout series tonight.
Cool
Im glad im not the only one to know about that weird creature in the deep. glad its out there now 🙂
Ive seen theories that say the interloper has human shape and features and that jeff lane is inside it
How is this channel not dead?
The interloper not being part of the ancient civilization but an enemy of them would be really cool but it had tentacle type stuff so idk
Reposting my theory from one of the comment threads here:
So I realized the passage Nate read.
Sharp Knife to deep temple. It finally makes sense.
Once the human innocents have their skin flayed at the temple of the deep chasm with Kremvh's Tooth,
Ug-Qualtoth would be reborn at the Obelisk underneath Dunwich HQ as written in The Krvibeknih which was still authored by Alhazred in the distant past before the timeline split for Fallout's universe.
It's like Bloodborne in a way. These ancient gods shape societies beneath their presence, and in order to commune with them, evil acts must be done and given in their name.
And despite each one being unique and alien from each other, you use catalysts from one, via strange connections we don't understand, to invoke or birth others.
Legion indeed.
The entities that Alhazred worships and writes about must be then the bodies discovered in the Nameless City by Lorenzo Cabot which horrified the other archeologists.
There must be some mechanism by which they make their form more familiar to humans, otherwise the Busts wouldn't look like Greek Gods, which would explain why the crown would fit their head, despite being horrific to witness.
And the Dunwich family, (passed to Blackhalls) must have acquired the book in similar fashion to how rich Europeans could fund their tomb raiding, which would then be passed down with wealth to Obadiah.
So Constance and Richard own the various artefacts and locations in order to finally fulfill the ritual that is described in the last audio recording from the ghoulified son.
No. Hell no. All these conspiracy videos are giving the Bethesda waaaaay too much credit! NOBODY there thinks this deeply. They just re use assets, which is fine, and watch everyone go totally Alex Jones over it 🤣
Just a theory but being linked to elder scrolls they look exactly like the dwemmer bronze heads could be a link ??
Fun fact, H.P. lovecraft also had a cat with a silly name.
Loved this video, beautifully detailed and interesting. Just would like to point out one thing – in the Fallout 3 dlc, Point Lookout, you referred to Obadiah as “wheelchair bound”. Saying wheelchair user would be a less ableist term, a person isn’t bound to their wheelchair, it’s what gives them the ability to move – we wouldn’t say someone is leg bound because they walk lol 😉 Wheelchairs equal mobility and freedom ♥️
I may be in the minority, but I absolutely hate Bethesda's inclusion of Lovecraft lore, as well as all the alien stuff and the entire Cabot House storyline.
Interesting video, though too much of what's added since the last one isn't canon imho, especially the 76 stuff, none of which I consider canon. 76 is like a fallout theme park, just a bunch of goofy fallout-themed activities to occupy paying visitors for a while.
It's a miracle the Chinese spies didn't eat the Visitor.
No mention in New Vegas?
The underlying lovecraftian plot takes the game from an 8 to a 10. I wish more games would have underlying plots, and chilling extra lore, that you really have to dig to find. Instead of "show don't tell", it is "hide stay quiet"
Cant wait to kill an eldritch god/abomination
Duneitch is just me hackdirt
if you aren't already playing 76, after this latest pitt update so much good stuff has been added and i thoroughly enjoy my time so far! would recommend playing it.
You mentioned the busts were even in the isometric games.
What was Interplay/Black Isles reasons for their inclusion?
