He gives everyone a short insight to one of the most well-recognized factions in the Fallout universe and its place in the upcoming sequel to the series.

As for the newer players, this is a chance to get yourselves into the spirit of the game and find out what made the series so popular. Either way, expect to see a lot of big men (and women) all clad in steel and Power Armor, as they eke out a living in the wasteland.
