In every BGS game ghouls all look identical, and it drives me insane. I feel it really detracts from the fact that ghoulification should be a unique experience to all that undergo it. Unless the Followers have invented some new kinda wasteland plastic surgery trend, of course, but I doubt that.
also ferals look so different from sane ghouls in all the bgs games which I feel is kind of a missed oppurtunity
I think they just were in f1 (iirc they were mostly moral device in the game, like who cares they are zombies or oh god I can’t just steal from people), in f2 they were exposed to fev, and in later games not sure probably retconned one way or another.
If there is no fev in the air where all other mutants come from? 🤔
the beginning of this comment is hard to interpret for me, so I’m just gonna leave it alone. but I think the idea is the other mutants are just caused by radiation, or at least FEV isn’t explicitly a cause other than… in racoons according to 76?
radiation works differently in fallout cause the devs wanted cool monsters

best ghoul is still harold from FO2 with a tree named bob growing out of his head
actually harold is an FEV mutant, not a ghoul, get your facts straight, bub☝🤓
All ghouls are fev mutants, get your facts straight, nerd. 🙃
No they aren’t. FEV mutants were exposed to the Forced Evolutionary Virus which changed them.
Ghouls were exposed to radiation which ghoulified them.
IIRC you need a specific gene as well, which is why some people ghoulify and some just die from radiation poisoning.
I’m pretty sure the aerosolized FEV thing is from the Fallout Bible, and thus isn’t explicitly canon?

LOL
Unique because a story telling device? I believe overexposure to radiation will have the same effect on all human.
