» Sun Mar 06, 2011 6:31 pm

My theory is and i heard it from someone on the forums and that is he murdered a vault dweller and stole it

.... No..

Nope.

He did actually come from a Vault. You'll find out which one later in the game.

Sarah verifies he's from there. (the vault 21 hotel owner) She knew him growing up.

Your theory is wrong, and all the proof exists in the game.

Spoiler

Sarah and her brother both make mention of him living in Vault 21 with them before House took over.

Nice try though.

We can't make stuff up when its already proved he's from it..

Fail.

I have a compromise!

There was a guy from Vault 21. After House took over, he moved out and went to Goodsprings. On his way he was murdered by a Raider who stole his identity!

Win/Win

Also how does "Not following the rules of everyone having a pipboy" explain anything?

it's not that hard to if you think about it

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 3:01 pm

Actually it is when there is proof that he was already from there.

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 8:32 am

You know, he could have taken his pipboy off when he left.

well how did he get a pipboy in a hotel it's a hotel that has been cleaned in and out

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 6:55 pm

He was born there.

Before.

It.

Was.

Discovered.

And.

Turned.

Into.

HOTEL.

It was a Vault before it became a hotel.

You really are desperate to cling to your failed disproved theory, aren't you? As the people who verify his having lived in a vault point out, he and they lived there before it was a hotel, when it was still in fact a vault. Troll harder pl0x?

what about his journey to goodsprings then like a person in this very forum said ( he got killed on his way their and they stole his identitie

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 10:07 am

House has run Vegas for past 7 years or so. The Vault hadnt been turned into a hotel until House took over. If Sarah, who looks to be in her early 30s, was living there when it was a Vault, it's just as assured that Doc Mitchell, easily in his mid 50s, was a Vault Dweller.

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 12:16 pm

who would want to take their pipboy off..thats just crazy talk..

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 3:57 pm

I would.

Because it looks silly when wearing a cowboy suit.

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 8:38 pm

isnt it funny how doc mitchel doesn't want to talk about his past i mean he only lived in a vault whats so bad about that... maybe he doesn't know his past

edit: acidently wrote house

How does the idea of him killing a vault dweller and stealing the pipboy somehow hold more water than the idea of him simply having lived in one of the vaults? That's what I don't understand here. There is no evidence whatsoever to suggest that he stole the pipboy. All of the in game evidence, which has already been mentioned, points towards him actually being a vault dweller himself.

Usually I wouldn't use this expression/word/whatever, since it seems a bit dikeish to me. But since this is blatant fanwank about something that already has perfectly sensible explanation, Im quite happy to play the dike lol ... /thread

Thats a bit impossible seeing theres no way anyone could know his name, age, where he's from, and where he was going. (Assuming he told the people in the vault where he was heading.)\

So just accept you and whoever the hell it was that said he killed the so called 'REAL' Doc johnson are wrong.

What about the journey? What has it got to do with the pipboy and Vault 21 being a Vault before a hotel?
