Summary
AFallout: New Vegasplayer has made an interesting lore realization about the game’s slot machines that few other gamers will have ever considered. Due toFallout: New Vegas' setting, slot machines naturally pop up here much more than in the rest of theFalloutseries.
Almost 14 years since the game was first released, it’s impressive that players continue to make new realizations and find fresh details inFallout: New Vegas. It’s a credit to Obsidian Entertainment and the impressive attention to detail in the title, which matches the quality gamers expect to see from a BethesdaFalloutgame. A short while back, anotherFallout: New Vegasplayer discovered an interesting detail about the Lucky 38 apartment, showing that these details can pop up anywhere. No matter how old the game is, it always seems like there’s more to find inFallout: New Vegas.
Redditor shadyblazeblizzard had an interesting realization about theFalloutlore, specificallyNew Vegas' slot machines. They pointed out that most people in the Mojave Wasteland would have no idea what the fruits in the slot machines are due to the total nuclear destruction and lack of fruit. One user concurred, claiming they’d “be surprised if they recognized them as fruit.” Another made a very fair point, pointing out that many people nowadays don’t even know that the “Bar” is supposed to represent a pack of gum.

Notes that the game’s Wastelanders “have no idea” what the fruit icons stand for
Overall, it was an interesting lore theory that most users seemed to agree with. While some felt that any surviving books and movies could possibly allow wealthy wastelanders to know what these fruits are, the fact that aFallout: New VegasCourierwith a low Intelligence stat doesn’t know what a fish is led many to agree that the secret fruit knowledge was likely lost to time.
Over the years, there have beenplenty of calls for a sequeltoFallout: New Vegaswith Obsidian Entertainment at the helm. Many gamers feel Obsidian’s offering was much closer to a classic RPG than Bethesda’s efforts, a common sentiment that has been shared online for years now. But given Obsidian remains busy finishingAvowedandThe Outer Worlds 2at the moment, it’s unlikely the studio has the time or resources to tackleFallout. Whether Bethesda will pass the reins of the franchise to another studio temporarily while it developsThe Elder Scrolls 6remains to be seen, but for now,Fallout: New Vegas 2seems like a pipe dream.
