Did Aliens Start The War ?
There are many questions left unanswered by the Fallout games (even Fallout 4), but by far one of the greatest questions yet to be answered is who started the war in the Fallout universe? Of course there is more than one possible answer, something we briefly touched upon in 'Is Courier Six An Android'. So I asked the question "Did Aliens Start The Great War?".
I wanted something that had established information for Fallout fans, with provable facts to back it up, this way no one could get upset right? Wrong. It's the internet what can I say, any mit-mot can type a response with their sausage fingers to make some kind of a noise. Weirdly enough I don't think the dipshit brigade were the ones with the problem, I think the biggest part of the negativity came from established Fallout fans.
They just didn't like the fact aliens could have anything to do with the "real" themes of the game. Not only is that stupid it's plain wrong. Aliens have been long established as a component to the Fallout universe, even making it into Fallout 4, so ruling them out is just clown shoes.

Dislikes on videos are meant for the community as a whole, rather than share what you feel on an emotional level. A high dislike to like ratio tells people at a glance that this video is misleading in someway or should otherwise be avoided. I could understand if I filmed myself taking a shit on the Fallout 4 disk and tried to pass that video off as a theory, then I'd understand. I even made a teaser trailer for the video before its release, which was overlooked and received a lukewarm reception at best, despite it being awesome before you watch the video, then taking on a whole new meaning once you've watch the alien theory and then re-watched the teaser (seriously watch the teaser before the video and then again after).
Overall the Fallout theory video did well, inspiring a lot of conversation about the theory I had created and was enjoyed by the majority of people who watched it and could tell I'd put a lot of time and effect into it. The answer to the question "Did aliens start the Fallout war?" will remain unanswered by Bethesda and me. Unless I somehow get back into the game.
I don't know if that would be more Fallout alien theory videos or other Fallout theory videos in general, I'm in two minds about it. Firstly revisiting Fallout theories I've established, would have more of a following and thereby get more traction. They'd also flow better as people would have access to prior Fallout theory videos to watch and get up to speed. But on the other hand new fallout theories would raise fresh interest and be (possibly) more interesting, as everybody likes new stuff.
