Minor characters like Marcus in Jacobstown and Doc Henry from.Jacobstown previously appeared in Fallout 2. Lastly, Cass isn't a big fan of drugs, kind of like how Cassidy had heart problems.Īnother big reference to Fallout 2 was Arcade's personal quest For Auld Lang Syne. She also quips, 'sure could use a drink' like her dad did. Cass talks about her father and inherited his drinking personality. Her father, John Cassidy, is a companion in Fallout 2 and joined the Chosen One during his travels. One of my favorites is FNV companion Cass.
The collectable Evil Gnome in FNV is a reference to him. Like Scott Everts he was the lead world builder for Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout New Vegas. A few employees from Obsidian Entertainment helped develop Fallout and Fallout 2 so FNV has way more references and connections to the original games than FO3.
