So The Cub Enters The Wolf's Den

I’ve always found it funny that in Fallout 3 they live amongst rubble and barely progressed after the war but in Fallout New Vegas they have “prospectors” whose job it is to go through the rubble to find valuable items and there’s practically no people living amongst rubble and empires already crumbling

to fallout 4's immense discredit in the matter, its decision to mandatorily define all female player characters as lawyers who married a soldier puts it behind literal fallout 1 on "does the female character feel like you're the punchline to a joke"

to elaborate on that a bit, it's actually toothgrittingly misogynistic that they contrived a scenario where there are two player characters and one of them was clearly conceptualised as The Wife of the Male Player Character, while the other was made as a character first. it's remarkable they managed to do that in a game with a character creator and no mechanical distinction between genders
