The Full Story of Vault 11 - Vault-Tec's Most Atrocious Experiment - Fallout New Vegas Lore

Further Reading:

Note: I should have made clear in the video that in the real Milgram Experiment, the person was not actually shocked. He was an actor, who screamed and banged on a door begging to be let out. The person pushing the button still thought the actor was really being shocked, but was assured that the shock would do no permanent damage.

The plot about this vault could have been a fucking movie script.

Vault-tec: "It's just a prank, bro."

I think my favourite part of this vault is that you willingly step into the sacrificial chamber, all because you want to know _why._ Sure there’s quest items, but that’s hardly an average reason for someone to enter what is clearly a death trap. You enter that chamber and play along because you, just like the residents, want an explanation for all the death that took place, even if it takes walking into the maw of the beast.

Vault Tec's slogan: "It's just a social experiment, bro!"

I think that the story of Vault 11 would make an excellent short film

It's incredibly sad that in one of the tapes Katherine says only her husband calls her Kate, and a lot of the posters ended up changed to say "I Hate Kate".

“Vault-Tec” would be a great Netflix series. Each episode is a different vault

Edit: did not expect this comment to catch fire like this

New edit: who’s excited for the Fallout TV Series!!!!

The story about Nathan and Katherine just breaks my heart. Being coerced to and having to endure being basically extorted and raped on multiple occasions in order to save a loved one, only to learn that it was all for naught.

For me the "scariest" part is that the execution is so brutal and undignified. I was expecting something like gas or like one gun aimed at the back to shoot the person but no it's a bunch of robots and turrets absolutely blasting the person.

This experiment is actually one of the best, it has almost no Vault Tec interference. It's simply a test of human morality.

At the point of the twist I actually said "you bastards" out loud.

Vault Residents: "I shouldn't. It's not the jedi way."
Vault Tech: "Dew it!"

The writing of Fallout New Vegas is so amazing. They never outright tell you what's happening, only leaving breadcrumbs behind for you to follow. The stories behind these vaults are so realistic it's sometimes scary.

"Here at Vault-Tec, your safety is our number 1 priority!"

*Looks at all the skeletons on the ground*

...Right.

[leximarie]

Watching this video again and I wanted to remind everyone that we can judge Vault-Tec by pre-apocalypse morals since the vaults were built and experiments were defined before the apocalypse started. They 110% knew what they were doing.

I wonder what would happen if the person flatly refuses to sit in the chair for a few days, would the System keep telling them to sit down or just start shooting?
