Fallout 4: Point Lookout - Everything Old Is New Again

good afternoon ladies jumping i'm john this is mania trudeau welcome to fallout 4. kind of because okay you may recall a few months back i took a look at project mojave basically a modder that was attempting to rebuild areas of new vegas in fallout 4. but really what i played was a tech demo because it was a small area the plane just be on prem i mean it was magical but it was pretty darn small in scale well today oh i've got something much much bigger for you a modder that has rebuilt the entirety of fallout 3's dlc point lookout in fallout 4 and i don't just mean the play area i mean every mission every npc every enemy every everything and okay this is uh this is quite the undertaking which is okay point lookout might be a bit smaller geographically but it's full of a whole bunch of wild stuff that's quite hard to recreate in a different engine like say a hallucination sequence an exploding submariner collapsing floors an escape room scenario there's a there's a whole bunch of wild stuff in point lookout so okay let's dive in and seriously when i say these guys have put the effort in they've put the effort in but but first introductions so say hello to clash is one of my test characters i use on occasion and i felt she could do with a nice vacation out to point lookout pretty standard character all things considered agility like perception pretty typical builds goods with rifles good with explosions bitter lock smith obviously together with ya good at sneak lone wanderer everything you'd expect to be honest so sure she's got a knife and a pipe weapon a handful of mines etc etc but let's be honest we're gonna be relying on what we find out there it's going to be beautiful so as you can see the duchess gambit is right here and it is a beautiful recreation doctor just around the corner from university points there's even a proper little animated mission cartoon in the pip-boy seriously some people here are just showing off and speaking of showing off are you going to point lookout i need your help my daughter stowed away on the duchess gambit a few weeks ago and i've been worried sick ever since i haven't heard anything from her but if you're going there could you look for her please i'll do anything to help as i understand it they've had to re-recorder some of the voice lines some form a legal problem with recreating one game in another but they've done such a good job but i'm actually not sure in some cases whether they have or not like is that the original catherine voice line it sounds about right to me i genuinely can't tell so good job around team also sure i'll go find your daughter if i've got a spare minute at some point down south this side of the bay there's a soggy stretchy beach called point lookout oh it's got it all ruins of ancient pleasure towns mysterious swamps bristling with treasure and all practically untouched by outsiders but if you're curious i could offer you a ride over to that far away land for a nominal fee of course okay tobar's got a super distinctive voice so you can kind of tell there but still it's a pretty good approximation i've heard many many worse instances of voice acting in mods they've done a good job here and fortunately i could just afford one ticket so alright let's go have some fun [Music] oh bloody hell this is this is weird because okay in my brain this is what point lookout looks like anyway but it definitely doesn't the fallout 4 mod has just caught up with my nostalgia filter for fallout 3 so all right everything looks pretty much fine to me i love it okay step one we need to get ourselves uh chittered out aha we've got a trader right here in fact oh this would be good we've got a trader with uh wants her name pinaka panada hang on there's a sign right here pinada you have a really distinctive voice so another good test for the voice acting welcome traveler stop by and have a look at the wares the fates have told me that you have a need seriously point lookout has some really distinctive voice acting they've done a good job with that still let's not go wasting my money for now because yes there are other shops nearby and i know for a fact if we just uh go up the side of the dodgems uh right over here there's going to be a there we go because we're back in fallout 3 town all of a sudden we've got a whole bunch of full body armor which honestly might be much better than what i've got right now oh that's a good good amount of stim packs right there crank you open too shan't say no to some mines okay that's actually slightly worse than what i've got all put together unfortunately so oh go on you know what we're putting it on anyway when in rome dress like the locals and all that now just be a little bit careful because if this is the point look out as i remember it then there's probably gonna be trouble okay my brain just saw fallout 3 and thus went for the fallout 3 vats button because it's different in fallout 4. so okay that's that's going to happen a lot by the way let's just get down over here get down lovely just be careful because as i say don't have too much going on but then again okay i know where i could get myself a weapon for freya motel right here don't cause trouble with the dogs that are probably going to be yeah that's dog how tough that oh oh it's fine it's fine it's fine it's not fine get inside get a gun now the dogs may or may not be able to follow me inside the rules could be yes different in uh fallout 3 versus a fallout 4 but yeah point lookout is shotgun town which works for me because shotguns are officially rifles in this game so okay we now got ourselves a good old shot gunner right there and we've got keys too i can now open up all the doors even if i can't do the lock picking can't remember how tough the lock picks are though while i'm passing by oh this is a fallout 3 style safe where it actually had good stuff you wanted in it as opposed to a fallout 4 safe which just contained a pipe weaponry and a spoon for some reason i will take shells i will take a stealth boy and i will very happily take wait we're actually in fallout 4. my brain is going to short circuit during this so i'm going to try and remember whether something was in fallout 3 that's been rebuilt in fallout 4 or whether this was always in fallout 4 because i assume this is the same double-barreled shotgun as in wait there is a double barrel of shotgun in the base game right oh my brain can't deal with this oh yeah i'm hearing yeah i'm definitely definitely been bitten level 40. not so bad double tap will take care of you and one and two and a nice and dead and i've got action girl so ap no you don't okay you might actually never mind uh no legendaries by the way and one and a reload excellent everybody loves a free reload boom i love it and to the next one i have got nothing okay that's that's fine just please please stop pointing me for just one second correct there we go almost murdered by vicious dogs right round the corner to the motel i've got the keys so yeah time to get myself in all the different rooms because the one i want the intended room is right there one day but no no no no first there's some good loots to be round the back room 1k because this is the culture meaning okay if we're very lucky oh there she is a pint-sized slasher mask i love it it's always good to have a smile on your face but here's the big thing right here in the intended room one day because this i think is going to be the really big test as to how well this mod's been put together because of course this room as we all know if we've played this uh dlc before was in fact the base of operation for a chinese spy kicking off the velvet curtain and this is one a hell of a mission to try and recreate there are so many weird and wild things like special magic glasses that let you see the world slightly differently exploding submarines trap roads like i was mentioning at the beginning like that is difficult to recreate the velvet curtain begins at lovely brand new animation once again absolutely spectacular so so so so we now need to trace the footsteps that agent jang was supposed to take had the apocalypse not happened and trying to ruined his entire plan so okay we're in a safe house right now absolutely lovely and next up we just need to well first ransack the room but once we're done with that nonsense yes indeed go and pick up a tape giving us our mission right on the waterfronts and here we go spy's audio password for the bank round the corner though if i recall correctly yeah the lovely bank is not necessarily empty just eyes open might need to clear out some pests and here we go no trouble yet hi there buddy no problem no problem at all i'm sure there's more oh it's you you're glowing you're a bit more dangerous don't mind to me in fact you know what job get your crits back up damn it you need some crets oh now take this too in the desk i assume this was in the original this is stuff i can't even remember yeah backup password for a different box right here in the uh loan officer's desk so okay we want to be accessing as many boxes as possible because uh why not also there are so many batteries and fishing poles around this bit of the world it's a bit peculiar to be honest also you've almost certainly heard in the background yes we've got the uh fallout 3 score back as well it's nice to hear it again like plenty of music and fallout does just uh do the rounds plenty of fallout 2 music's in new vegas for example but it is nice to get the fallout 3 soundtrack back sometimes i love fallout 3 soundtrack absolutely beautiful thing seriously why is everybody got a fishing pole in their safe this is actually weirder than the obsession with silver spoons in fallout 4. still i won't say no to a lever action rifle because yes that's correct lever action rifles and point lookout took 10 millimeter ammo so those are accurate yes right into the room at the back over here and yes indeed before we actually proceed with the main mission here we go the other box so give that a play love arleigh the audio password for my box is never more all right handful of drugs and money i shall say no but the real one we want is a yes box 1207 while i'm passing by and shoving at the new debriefing agent zhang as you know an important chinese surveillance vessel was lost in american waters your mission is to destroy derelict submarine ss-937 before the americans can recover and analyze it the recovery location is included in this dossier and your cover ensures that the americans will allow you access to their recovery operation however you will need an authorization code to trigger the self-destruct sequence one of our field operators in your area agent yang has these codes hidden in a dental capsule but her current whereabouts are unknown locate and rendezvous with agent yang then destroy the submarine report to your safe house for extraction information when the mission is complete the will of the people protect you agent zhang and this is where things get nice and spy like because you can just figure out by yourself oh my goodness there's a wanted poster straight away the u.s naval office we now know where we're going no i'm pretty sure that's down yeah this side of town just be careful there's definitely some trouble beyond this area so okay once again bloat fly don't need to be too scared of a bloke fly two bloke flies though probably fine john how about we just blow up that one then just come over to here don't mind me buddy i forgot i was wearing the mask there but i am wearing the creepy creepy mask okay back round the corner into the naval recruiting center and i'm pretty sure we're gonna have yeah some uh pests to deal with in oh bloody hell they're already attacking me what a bunch of decks so okay just take you out and take completely missed sorry my mistake john use that you need to build them crits up nothing too dramatic another mini nuke if i find a fat man out here i'll consider that uh yes fair play to be using bar to officer terminal we need to get information about yes the capture to agent yang and now we've got a location turtle dove detention camp right to the north of the map oh it really is fallout 3 when we've got the terrible terrible 0.32 pistol back oh it was always garbage why did it even exist okay we're going north out towards the swamp at this point and yeah i believe if we just go pretty much straight north from where i am we should hit haley's hardware yeah that'll probably be you on the compass right here now eyes open but this side of uh yeah the river we should be pretty safe all things considered we get into the nasty stuff when we cross yeah that bridge over there to be very careful once you get to the far side of the river that's where some of the locals live now the reason i want to come here here is uh obviously you know this is a fallout 3 but it's also fallout 4 if you see what i mean so if there was going to be one place on the map that might have say a workbench where i could see how some of these fallout 3 weapons upgrade this should be the place oh and i was completely right and that makes intuitive sense so well done mod very well done indeed in fact actually hang on was there a workbench like the fallout 3 crafty workbench here in the original there might have been i can't remember and whether there was or not i will give them you know props for attention to detail every workbench in fallout 3 had a minor just like this sitting hidden underneath it it was always a good thing to grab so okay you know what wonderful attention to detail and i'm so sorry i didn't let's just reload that i didn't mean to steal your wrench honestly i feel like if you leave a workbench out in your shop and there is a wrench on that workbench then it's reasonable to assume the customers can use the wrench but no apparently this is a bloody trap or something and oh okay so this is a workbench that could just magically be any form of workbench gotcha so okay the axe can be upgraded to okay the axe has no upgrades it's just an axe which i suppose is accurate to fallout 3 so i can't really complain that much the terrible 32 pistol however has what i believe to be a hang about yes it's borrowing its upgrades from the 44 pistol which i believe it's also borrowed its entire physical model from though obviously yes it's much much worse ah the lever action rifle though here's the interesting one right here this gun is not great but it's not terrible either also i love haley just uh going around to the background kicking over the various assets that's lovely so okay starting off at 75 uh take this thing up to max advanced deezer not bad you know that's uh that's a big step up unfortunately i've got like no crafting materials with me so we're just gonna have to uh make do right there standard flip down sights i see so okay that's kind of unique though okay i feel like i shouldn't need right so i think the sights on we're gonna broken and i need some glue just to make them stand up which is kind of marvelous actually i tell you what if i could just buy from this guy oh it's getting worse in the background over there yeah two glue up two gears at two screws up two steel i wouldn't mind our hardened shotgun nope no gears or glue in the place so keep an eye out for that we'll come back later oh but this will do the job he's selling some traditional fallout 3 armors so basic leather which is slightly better than my lightweight armor but oh that's better i will say that you're driving a hard bloody bargain buddy okay i guess i'll just stick with the uh yeah basic leather armor for now okay time to go into nastier territory and eyes open i see bruisers over there big lads melee weapons plenty of health the brawlers right they are much much lower on the health front so just watch out for the uh the bruises and bear in mind i can just nip across the water should i need to i'm pretty sure there'll be some of those guys just waiting for me on the far side of the river this is kind of where the gamer introduces you to them so eyes open i would ideally just like to follow the road for now where are you lads and are you going to be around here somewhere because that there is marguerite shack and we don't want to go there that's a bit scary actually we're just going to loop around the road it's going to be great because uh there's something in particular i wouldn't mind grabbing on the road the single most important item in this entire dlc and they better have done this justice dammit i see ya brawler level 22 all right that's by marguerite shack don't go there there's not much there apart from sadness and death oh but hello sexy we got a handful of smugglers not high level mind and there's a legendary okay you know what i'd say if i find a legendary i'm allowed to use it that's legitimate so oh haven't noticed this fragments are distinct from fragmentation mine so if they're going to be the style of fallout 3 they're going to look like this so all right hey guys don't mind me because i am just going to pop a nice grenade right in the center of all of you that should do it right there boom and all right that should be you mostly dead aside from aside from the multiple people who aren't dead which is interesting kind of assumed that would be okay like nobody's dead that was that was the worst grenade i've ever seen right up in their face right up in the oh bloody hell they've got plasma and also grenades ow ow out all right so you definitely have a plasma weapon and it's going to be mine now actually just get over to ow don't don't don't don't mind me don't mind me i'm just killing your friends okay no trouble aside from the trouble uh who's left one guy you appears to have okay this is interesting i mean his legs are both crippled meaning he appears to be down on the ground not doing anything which that's not how enemies work in fallout 3 but oh never mind he feels a bit better i think possibly he just hadn't got up for no well-explained reason hi don't mind me you're just going to lash in the face buddy okay grenades super sledge oh sturdy across the board oh i'll be taking all this thank you but yeah key thing we've got here is she was using a short plasma rifle but actually her weapon was a junkies combats junkies is actually really really weirdly good because basically every legendary effect in this game is capped to doing under optimal conditions about double damage as to what the weapon would normally do junkies isn't because if you just get addicted to everything you can do way over double damage junkies is actually amazing all right we all saw that this is what they had on them so it's legit for me to wear and i'm going to also you know not die this way so better and better and the reason i actually came in here was a truck wreckage oh yeah lights on it oh i see ya economy wonder glue okay just need some stuff with uh gears in it and we are going to be golden one lighthouse bulba oh yeah oh flipping yeah we're fixing the lighthouse dammit all right visibility is poor and i do not want to go into the swamp at night so let's wait here till morning thanks to yes fallout 4 mechanic over waiting while you're in a chair there we go much much better lovely mist by the way also more just stuff there just appear to be more you know frogs uh fireflies around the swamp just feels a bit more alive now that's a good change all right doesn't break the uh feel of the original in any way but it does just lead to a scenario where yeah the swamp just for you is a more lively and a hello over there sexy oh yeah so the detention camp um it's supposed to have robots fighting zombies outside meaning going in the front door bad idea but the sentry bots are now fallout 4 sentry bots which are much much worse step one head to the west until you see a big shack assuming everything has been recreated pretty accurately which surely is the point so something's nearly detecting me maybe lights off it is daytimer i don't really want to be spotted by it actually swamp ghouls are like really really flimsy they're the flimsiest of all so hang on where on earth am i i've got myself a bit lost because you know it's point lookout it's a swamp it's uh it's hard to navigate oh hang on i've this is where i was trying to get to ultimately but like i was trying to navigate to that shack over there that's where i was trying to actually you know start off as a you know landmark but then hello over there okay basic ghouls there is something by the shack anyway this is one of the yeah underground mcgibbles so guys don't mind me because you need to oh hang on you're not actually well okay i assume you act like a fallout 4 ghoul but you look like a fallout 3-1 nice attention to detail okay who else do we got who else do we got who else have we got and uh okay thankfully that is a fallout 4 style reaver cuz if that was a fallout freestyle revan it looked like a fallout 3 star reaver i'd be dead right now because reavers just kill you you just die but thankfully no this is a lovely lovely fallout 4 level of health riva meaning he's actually just little cuddle bugger and diesel nice and easy and while we are just passing by where's the hole in the ground there it is lovely can't remember what's down here to be honest but bare minimum yeah we've got ourselves a soil surveys and biogas canisters which may or may not do anything i'm not sure but yeah there was a scientific research team they were trying to find some natural gas summing something energy crisis summing something secret corporation evil plan it's fallout you know how it goes i'll take the rad suit mines oh and crucially typewriter combine that with a couple of tin cans uh oh i think we've just got ourselves an upgrade to the shotgun warner heart and receiver love it right 20 extra damage in a hand and down into the septic tunnel access we go i can't remember whether yes you bypass all enemies by coming in this back wire or not definitely you can buy passion the biggest deal of trouble and also oh i won't say no to uh you know some free containers oh now we're talking oh slight slight slight slight slight issue sorry didn't realize we were gonna have quite so many ghouls like right next to me as i uh woke up and excuse me don't mind me don't mind me let's have no you know bigger bloaty lads or anything just you two hopefully just you too yeah roma's and swamp ghouls are not so bad okay i think we're fine lovely right good i just wanted to enjoy you know the fashion but no there had to be bloody ghouls everywhere so okay now this this will do the job i love it all right agent yang crack you open and let's have myself some codes beautiful next up just need to get my way back out to the submarine go back out the way i came in no trouble with the big old robots outside all right slight issue mind it looks like we won't be able to yes entirely bypass the locals at this point we got ourselves a level 42 tracker lever action rifle it is i suppose so just boom take you out buddy but you are a tracker meaning you're now going to charge up straight at me like an idiot which is a very good news because i have got some lovely lovely crits in hand boom and then that didn't do much also i pushed the wrong vats button i told you that was gonna happen right let's just go for oh that's better one and the second should do the job well done for missing excellent excellent work there no ow that really cocking hurts then he exploded now before go fishing for submarines uh something i'm mildly concerned about which is some of the high level my lurks in fallout 4 can be quite terrifying if we're lucky oh you're um you're a full-on swamp like but you're only level five which is weird but like you know good hi buddy don't mind me i'm just here to build up some crepes then you exploded lovely so how about your friends just pop over here too do you have a projectile by the way like an incredibly dangerous john why are you running away they're flipping swamp loads and you've got a shotgun you need to get up to them one and two using the uh yes king asset from fallout 4. okay fortunately i think the game has uh reflected accurately that my alerts in this generation were not supposed to be that bad all things considered but this was all very important because we're obviously not not going into the lighthouse oh here we go lighthouse mechanism and insert new ball but absolutely beautiful meaning if we just flick the switch oh there it goes i have fixed the lighthouse and okay i'm gonna be honest i'm slightly disappointed because one of the most disappointing things in all a fallout three-point lookout a brilliant dlc in general is that there was basically no rewarder for doing the best thing in the world you could have fixed this smarter you could have given me just you know a token 100 xp for fixing the lighthouse because we deserve xp for fixing the lighthouse you've let me down i'm not angry i'm just disappointed all right here she is barely even off the coast in fact so all right i believe the hat should be on top or there abouts here we go submarine and let's get her exploding oh okay they've had to slightly redo this then again i suppose yes the interior of the submarine was a very strange little interior environment though now i'm curious have they added dangerous yes they've had a danger okay was that there in the original i swear that wasn't there in the original so okay sometimes over there goes a fizzle fizzle sometimes uh over here sure it's all absolutely a-okay there's also a pool of green goo doesn't seem to ow it's okay it's fine it's all absolutely under control just don't get zapped by the electricity right submarine terminal and then pull the fell safe lever at the rear then i've only got a minute to get out which is absolutely fine because you know it's very tiny indeed we know golden i think we're all golden here we go turner firm paul lever time to get flip out of dodge well also oh blimey i was about to say while also staying as close as possible to watch it explode but i feel like that was too close okay a little bit little bit further back a little bit further back a little bit further back explosion is big okay there we go sub has definitely exploded anyway job done and now we get into the bits where i'm just starting to wonder how they're going to ever yeah hacked it all together because now we have to go and check in with the completely not a trap secret bunker then into code one at three two three at four four two when i'm wearing the spectacles in order to see what i'm supposed to be interacting with okay so here we are glasses are off versus slap them on and all of a sudden there we go the little stripes appeared just like in the base game very nice so i believe it was a one or three at two three four four two right if my memory's as good as i hope it is they should be boom first flipping time oh this is nice there are high capacity handmade rifles dossed about i assume these are supposed to be standing in place over yeah chinese assault rifles what i really want however is yes what's down below because the unique variant over the 10 millimeter lever action is downstairs and in the base game fallout 3 that thing's pretty bloody good so okay what have you got for me game though don't forget of course we are walking straight into a trap a trap that yes in the base game there are a few solutions to i believe so with the right skill you can just disable it now i assume those skill checks will have been replaced by like um yeah pert checks special checks i don't know but well you're not supposed to be here but i guess i won't say no oh my goodness it was a double cross so okay what are we going to do now precisely because there's lots of rads coming in can i do anything with that yes the room is being sprayed activate okay it's a special check so do i have intelligence for a really open door and there we go i have now cut off the rads the door however is a sealed shot so okay there it is the backwater rifle so what precisely is one of these so it's been tanked as legendary but the game's not saying what legendary effect it's gone possibly it's got an invisible legendary effect just giving it like plus what is that maybe 15 damage to represent the fact the original didn't have any special effect beyond just being better so okay it might just have an invisible programmed legendary effect to recreate its slight increase in power i'm not sure okay well obviously we're putting the chinese stealth armor on because why wouldn't we you know oh that's just lovely isn't it but if i crouch down oh flip it's proper okay well i suppose technically they're not wrong that yes there's no operational anchorage okay they've just given me proper stealth armor well lady flipping dar anyway just climb to the top of the room and then out we go lovely and with that the velvet curtain is complete so okay that's just a taste of uh fallout 4 point lookout and uh i'm gonna be honest i was just meaning for this to be like you know a little one-off nip in have a looksy round just you know see how well it was put together but this is this is really good stuff and at this point i can't deny it i want to see how well they can recreate a british ghoul accent how they're going to do the hallucination sequence how they're going to rework click safari so okay mini series uh let's flip it go point lookout is a very very short dlc we get through the whole thing in like a couple more weeks nice and easy so join me next week for a little bit more we're just going to be doing a tiny little mini series right here and if you want to play along you can right now link in the description to this mod this is really really good work so so impressive and as i say i'll be digging in a bit more myself next week hopefully you join me for that but in the meantime oh you've been jonas has been many a true nerd and this has been fallout 4 point lookouts thank you very much and goodbye ah we have got a gate key here and then we have gone i've made a mistake i've made a mistake i've made a mistake i've made a mistake this is going to take all of my skill and cunning as a hunter to sort out are you moving bastards die die go go away go away nobody likes you that was a good idea till it wasn't
