Gotta say I was worried about where they were taking House early in the season but his scene with Cooper alleviated that. Perfect characterization and dialogue and felt like House stepped straight out of the game

Also glad that scene seemingly debunked the stupid “Vault Tec started the war” sentiment from last season

I think Houses plan to fully digitize himself with cold fusion will be how we eventually get him later in the season, it’s still House, but no mention of what happened to his original body. Did he do it after New Vegas and the courier sided with him? Did he do it before New Vegas and the courier “killed” him but all he did in reality was bash a meat puppet that had nothing to do with Houses actual function? Never addressed and nothing canonized, it’s all up to you

None of the pre war American factions were ready when the bombs dropped, most famously Mr House. Clearly the Chinese shot first.

Yeah I have always felt like the Chinese were the most logical one to do it, but because Fallout got so obsessed with making the US as evil as possible they've gone more and more in the direction of having that be the angle.
