Though, it doesn’t seem that way at first.
Initially, Max looks too calloused by his environment to handle something as soft as love.
You may know them as the stuff of an honest relationship.
“I’m glad I was wrong.”
But not even Danse gets as vulnerable as Max is willing to.
His eyes take on a damp sparkle that should be impossible in a place as dry as the wasteland.
Love is a battlefield
Fallout has never had so much faith in a romantic male lead.
But it’s not like the Fallout games haven’t at least tried to make boys seem palatable.
you’re able to marry the handsome butcher’s son Davin in Fallout 2, for example.
Though, marriage usually implies your romantic bond is everlasting, or at least deeper than a pothole.
Fallout 2, instead, makes it so that marriage is the next step after a random hookup.
That’s two strikes against love, I think.
Fallout 4 tries to remedy this with its general surplus of romance.
