    What do interracial divorce rates have to do with Fallout? Besides, isn't Fallout a series in which practically all the villains are really racist and want to exterminate the ghouls, supermutants and humans who live outside the vaults?

    I know these chuds never play or watch the media they're "criticizing" or angry about, for fuck sakes go watch Nascar or play Call of Duty instead of making this garbage.

      That's mostly the Bethesda games. The first two isometric games were much more narratively complex.

      One of the villians in the first game wanted to exterminate humans in favor of the Super Mutants. That was back before Bethesda turned them into Orcs by another name. When they were just hulks immune to death by natural causes and sterile, with the older ones being suitably intelligent for being ~100 years old.

      I think the Super Mutant lore is that a sentient AI continued work that was originally intended to make super soldiers to instead try and create a virus that would mutate humans into a form that could better survive in the post nuclear apocalypse. But then something went screwy and it started making an army with intent to plow over the world.

      Lore wise, most of the smart super mutants are generation one, with the dumb ones coming in later "generations", or going insane over time.

        Yeah, I know about the Master (who was voiced by Jim Cummings lol) and his plans. Supermutants and the Nightkin were/some still are very intelligent and strong, which would make them the perfect being to live in the wasteland.

        spoiler

        His entire plan fails because the Super Mutants are sterile.
