"The Tyrant has no family, no friends, no country — only slaves, chained in his wake. To his fellows, he ask: “Of what use are you to me?” Those who love him are his subjects — for the Tyrant accepts only worship… or fear."

"Each new Tyrant ventured here in search of conquest, Delta; Fontaine. Ryan. And now you. But every aspiring Caesar must learn to fear the knives of his fellows. Ask yourself... What does Sinclair stand to gain in guiding you here?"

"The Tyrant looks upon the world, saying: “All of this is mine.” And by force or guile, he makes it so. To the Tyrant, the whole of creation is held in the relative — sun and moon revolve for him alone. For the Tyrant, even Justice is whimsy — he alone is fit to weigh, to measure... And to cut."

"Subject Delta, I have known for years of Stanley's betrayal here, and had forgiven him. But in compromising Eleanor now... He seals his fate. You see, it was Stanley who turned you in to Ryan. He is responsible for what you have become. The security booth is open now; You may have your revenge."

"[after saving or harvesting the last Little Sister in Dionysus Park] Delta... Our conflict of interest seems to be upsetting Eleanor. For her sake, I have made it clear to these men that you are not to suffer. I accept full responsibility for any anger you may experience before you die..."

"Through ADAM, Eleanor will become the daughter of the people — a true Utopian... Brilliant beyond measure, but utterly selfless. As she ascends, Delta, you and I will seem as dogs, circling and snarling amid the afterbirth."

"ADAM is Rapture, Delta! The finest minds of Paradise in a single, sublime mosaic. Eleanor. Consider the genius you deny her with every stolen drop."

"You mistake my nature, Delta. I wish no ADAM for myself. Eleanor is the dream... And she needs neither weapons nor parlor tricks."

"Dionysus Park was my home, Delta... An experiment in social unity, cut short by human folly. You dishonor its memory with every step."

"Attention! Attention: Subject Delta has drained and infiltrated Dionysus Park. His death is our rebirth — the life of the People's Daughter is in your hands!"

"Look, Delta, it is the world for which you strive. You... Alone... Among the dead."

"Subject Delta, I want you to commit this moment to memory for me — this... Howling, brutish slog through the dark. This is who we are."

"Do you think me a Tyrant, Delta, vying for control of a dead man's dream? The city is nothing. Rapture must die, so that Eleanor may rise from its body. Allow me to demonstrate..."

"Ask yourself, Delta... You who have suffered beyond measure at the hands of men like Ryan... What is the cost of paradise? To end pain... To end sin... What must we pay? Eleanor is my answer."

"Father Simon Wales, I have trapped a devil at your doorstep. And Simon? Daniel is dead. Murdered. Can you hear him crying out for justice?"

"Faith, Delta... it lives within us, yet beyond us. Daniel Wales lacked it; Father Simon Wales does not. The faithful do not die in fear, as you did... we achieve martyrdom."

"I see Father Wales has parted you from your craft, and yet you cling to life. Congratulations. Today, Delta, you meet a man who has no fear of death, and for Eleanor... He would burn with a smile."

"[If the player chooses to spare Grace Holloway] By sparing Grace, do you seek to gain my trust? A feeble ruse. Your crocodile tears may poison her with doubt, but I am not so easy a mark."

"[If the player chooses to kill Grace Holloway] Grace failed to protect Eleanor from the fall of Rapture, Delta... And my human daughter was lost forever. But I forgave Grace for that. And you murdered her... Ratifying her bigotry. She was right about your nature... And you have made her so."

"In 2214, a geophysicist named Michael Altman made a discovery that would change history. Buried at the impact site of a crater near the Yucatán Peninsula, he uncovered a divine alien presence: the Marker. The Marker spoke to Altman and revealed a plan that would unify mankind and lead them to a bright, new future."

"[Prayer] Praise Altman, chosen of the Marker, architect of the Church. For Altman is the way and the light. Through Convergence, we all become one. One mind, one being, one flesh. Divine ascension awaits the faithful. Beyond the flesh and through the Marker. Altman be praised."

"Altman's followers mourned his death, but found divine solace in his message of unity. They would not allow the truth to be silenced, and formed the Church of Unitology to bring his teachings to the world."

"By the millions, people flocked to hear more about the Marker and the unity it promised after Michael Altman told the world of his profound discovery. But there were those who felt threatened by Altman's message. On March 15th 2215, Altman was assassinated, and thus became the first martyr for the Church."

"Assassins are meant to be quiet. Precise. We do not go announcing conspiracies from the rooftops to all who pass by."

"Hiring DEI experts and historians to work on the game for research leads to much faster and more accurate insights for the games, which then gives the developers a stronger foundation to work off of—something that turned out to be a major boon for Assassin’s Creed Mirage."

"We didn't know what an Assassin's Creed game was before we finished the first one."

"Last words in Assassin's Creed series games"

"'In GTA I can go anywhere with the car, can I go anywhere with the character?' That's why we had the parkour."

"This is France, where everything becomes politicized, including video games."

"DEI kills art."

"You are still a frog in a well, The ocean fills with new ships but they all from the same river, Greed , Power , Vengeance."

"Come here, Chosen One. There are things you should know."

"Blending history, science-fiction, and interesting decision-making is what makes the Fallout games modern classics. And while there is no need for the series to become full-fledged anti-nuclear weapons education materials, it would help if the latest incarnation maintained the closer connections that the older entries had to the realities of our own nuclear age. Earlier Fallout games show that a humorous treatment of nuclear weapons is possible without slipping into outright ambivalence about their implications. (And yes, one can indulge in dark satire and still be outraged by the dangers of nuclear weaponry; witness movies such as “Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.”) What should be clear, rather, is that repackaging nuclear weapons and technologies as entirely unproblematic makes for less-interesting decisions for players and weaker ties to the historical flavor that has underpinned the unique appeal of the games. And, perhaps most important of all, these sanitized representations risk teaching a misleading version of humanity’s nuclear predicament to a massive audience."

"To be sure, the Fallout games have never had an explicitly anti-nuclear stance; they have never come across as an after-school special. But the satirical humor of the series has frequently targeted the hubris of mid-20th century science, politics, society, and industry. The alternative universe created by the game developers diverges from our own timeline after World War II, imagining a world where dreams of robots and nuclear-powered cars came true. Far from ushering in a utopia, however, in Fallout, nuclear technologies led to a nightmarish collapse of organized human civilization in the United States and the rest of the globe. The Bomb is only the most obvious cause. Before the war, nuclear-fueled consumerism and unchecked mega-corporations pillaged the natural resources of the continent and poisoned the environment. (The series has never been content to poke fun at the past, but often draws unflattering comparisons to our world today.) A rampant military-industrial complex led to a garrison state, social unrest, and international tension. In short, the setting of Fallout is hardly an endorsement of the nuclear age. As players move through the hellscape of post-nuclear war America, they are confronted by jarring relicts of the pro-nuclear age. Advertisements for the best-selling soda before the war, Nuka-cola, are everywhere. One variant of this soda was even sold with the exciting inclusion of real radioactive isotopes. All the while, players struggle to deal with finding food and water that isn’t dangerously irradiated. Take too many doses of radiation, or “rads,” and the player’s character will die. The nuclear utopianism of the past is made to look preposterous next to its horrific consequences."

"Trading heavily on its nuclear theme, the Fallout video game series has so far teetered between satirizing the Bomb, and reveling in its power. But now it may be toppling over that fine line. These games are almost certainly the most well-known (and well-loved) media that deal with nuclear weapons today. Fallout must therefore be taken seriously as an influence on the real-world politics and culture of nuclear weapons in the 21st century."

"The Fallout universe paints a picture of a dystopian future. It exists in what people on the cusp of the atomic revolution in the 1950s saw as the sci-fi world of tomorrow... if several thousand nuclear bombs were dropped on it. It's a quaint sci-fi view of a future filled with atomic cars, robot servants, and incredibly basic computer terminals. A nuclear war has taken away most of these technological comforts, providing the backdrop for a game with a dreary, desperate atmosphere filled with glib and dark humor. It's a world that is both fantastic and somehow believable. And it is one that's exciting to explore."

"You know, In a 100 years, when I finally die, I only hope I go to hell- so I can kill you all over again you piece of shit."

"You’ve made your last delivery, kid. Sorry you got twisted up in this scene. From where you’re kneeling, must seem like an 18-karat run of bad luck. Truth is, the game was rigged from the start."

"Come on over here. I want to show you something. See that? It was your mother's favorite passage. It's from the Bible. Revelation 21:6. "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely." She always loved that."

"What do I want? I don't really know. Most of the time I ignore my quest and walk into the homes of others, riffling through people's shelves... oooh, like those over there!"

"You've gotten a lot farther than you should have, but then you haven't met Frank Horrigan either. Your ride's over, mutie. Time to die."

"You will be faced with many challenges throughout your lifetime, and the most difficult of these will be dealing with your fellow man. There will come a time when diplomacy and tact will prove to be useless and your hand must be raised instead."

"War. War never changes. The Romans waged war to gather slaves and wealth. Spain built an empire from its lust for gold and territory. Hitler shaped a battered Germany into an economic superpower. But war never changes."

"It is absolutely imperative that a counterattack begin as soon as possible. The Marathon is not defenseless, and we can't let it be taken without a fight."

"Durandal reports that he has been in communication with the Aliens. He says that the Aliens behind the invasion call themselves the Pfhor, and that the ones attacking the computer net are called S'pht. But he was reluctant to share the details of his communication and I cannot understand this."

"If a large bomb is allowed to detonate in the Engineering Section, the Marathon would be ^&2``~"

"Everything is not as it seems{}. seems{}. seems{}. You should be extremely careful. I have detected Durandal[Tycho] in the Engineering Section, but I don't know what he is doing."

"i did it i did it i brought all this here all them here. our friends with three eyes and their toys and their cyborg pets and their computers."

"i hate your failsafes your backup systems your hardware lockouts your patch behavior daemons. i hate leela and her goodness her justice her loyalty her faith."

"And here you are, stuck at the bottom of a hole. How droll. It's really too bad- we could have had so much fun together."
