Ending with Cass

There is not one doctor anywhere on the Strip. I find this detail quite telling.



House is lonely.


I would get lonely too if all I had to talk to for 200 years was a reprogrammed securitron pretending to be my last girlfriend.

For me, Yesman is just a failsafe of House, but I get more say during the affair.

I like him, but he dwell on the past and didn't acknowledge the world have been changed.

Keyword: During. He will most likely take the strip after, and do something like kill a few people or something.

He doesn't dwell on it. He keeps Vegas in its former glory, because that was when it was best, and therefore, it is much better than making huts and having cardboard signs saying 'welcome to new vegas'. The future simply is not as advanced as the Pre-war tech and lighting, so it is better if he keeps it in the way which will generate the most revenue, not to mention that it will oo and aww the wastelanders.

His priorities are all wrong. He funnels in all this wealth out of the wasteland via the strip and gives so little back, furiously chasing pseudo-immortality for himself instead.

Of course! I never said his madness was inexplicable.

Remember, House looks for the big picture, he doesn't care if you were stupid enough to go fight a radscorpion while trying to scavenge parts in a broken down factory... that's individual problems, he doesn't look for those things, he looks for big picture things like getting the world itself back on track, finding a new planet to call home, restructuring the world's economy... etc... just because you are hungry or got a scraqed knee, Mr. House isn't going to stop to run over to you and kiss your boo boo to make it all better lol.

If you stare at the big picture so long as to render the details invisible then you are lost to the world of men. House is trapped in his own dreamworld of technological fantasy, blind to the realities of the world around him.

The leader who shows compassion to everyone around him, as individuals, is a weak leader who pours too much time and effort into individual people. House does see the details like the BoS, Boomers, etc... He even pays attention to the kings and gets well informed of all the goings and happenings around the wastes via securitrons like victor... He's not blind to the world, he just doesn't play mommy and daddy like the NCR or executioner like CL...
