To add to the Alien artefact idea Jack Cabot says that Lorenzo believes that there is another Alien city in the Mojave desert so it is possible that before Fallout Classic the Stranger found said city discovered an artefact that allowed him to get immortality
-
He's definitelly a high level player who's lagging, that's why he one shots everything but seems to teleport
-
They always ask “who is the mysterious stranger” but they never ask “how is the mysterious stranger”
-
"Ah, so you're challenging me? Go ahead. Use V.A.T.S. I'm miles away." POW "You missed, fool." Guitar music plays "What?!"
-
I think he’s multiple people. A story passed down from generations, and people take up the mantle to do their part, and keep the story alive.
-
I think he's a reference to Mark Twain's unfinished novel "The Mysterious Stranger". In the book, Satan goes by the alias The Mysterious Stranger. He is also called No. 44, which is the type of gun the stranger in fallout carries; a .44 magnum.
-
the mysterious oxhorn, he appears out of nowhere, drops some lore, then vanishes till he is needed again
-
The lonesome drifters story is very reminiscent of a Johnny Cash song named A Boy Named Sue. With the father leaving the boy at an early age, to not leaving much except a guitar and the child moving from town to town to find his dad.
-
I feel like the name “Lonesome Drifter” is a nod to the Lone Wanderer.
-
Wife: " honey were out of milk can you pick up some" Me: * guitar sounds in backround *
-
The mysterious stranger is actually a kill thief, you don't get the XP when he "helps" you.
-
I honestly love how the scene unintentionally played out at 2:33. How uncoordinated things felt and then the zoom in to the corpse while the camera is all shaky. it feels like a film school end of term project
-
I'm thinking time traveller. His comings and goings could be "significant" moments in time where the PC needs to succeed. At one point he got sentimental, started a family, lost track of his "mission", then got back on track.
-
“No im 28 why?” “Its about time i give these old bones a rest”
-
you take a sip from your trusty vault 13 canteen
-
Also, in Fallout 4 he has a basic .44 five years after you receive the Mysterious .44 in FNV, perhaps a nodd that this stranger is that guys father and because he gave his gun away he no longer appears with it 🤔
-
This might sound kind of strange but have you noticed the mysterious stranger only helps out those who can Doom the whole entire Wasteland?
-
7:35 Seeing your party members fall one by one when you were still conscious looked terrifying
-
I know who the mysterious stranger is, the Arizona ranger with the big iron on his hip.
-
It's just the penguins of Madagascar in a stack formation.
