There were only 122 vaults, and they were designed to hold 1,000 people each.
In fact, dialog highly implies that only vaults really had supplies. They were never really shown in the games to be a popular consumer item, unlike Mr. Rob-co built the Pip-boys for Vault-Tec under contract X Pip-boys and X^Y spare parts distributed to the vaults. By the time of the games, Pip-Boys are 200+ years old. If you talk to the resident vault handyman, however, you're treated to a grumble about how impossible it is to find spare parts, that your Pip-Boy is an older model, but how he worked extra hard to make sure it was repaired and ready to go. I'm unable to find my transcript of Fallout 3 dialog, but when you get your Pip-Boy, it's stated (or at least heavily implied) that every vault dweller gets a Pip-Boy. So where are all these Pip-Boys and why don't we meet, from time to time, NPCs wearing one?Įvery vault resident got one, but there were only so many vault residents. and being a valuable item, we could expect to occasionally meet strong characters, influent people or big bosses wearing one. There must have been a few thousands of Pip-Boys spread around the U.S.A. We know that at the age of ten, every inhabitant receives his Pip-Boy, as in Fallout 3, the Lone Wanderer receives one, on his tenth birthday, from the overseer Alphonse Almodovar. So we could consider that every inhabitant of Vault 21 had a Pip-Boy.
Reliance on luck to solve problems created what might be considered the perfect realization of anarchy: a society in which everyone is equal and no one has an advantage over the others. We know that in Vault 21:Įveryone in the vault was equal, it was created with a perfectly symmetrical layout, and the dwellers settled their differences via games of chance. In Fallout: New Vegas, Doc Mitchell gives the Courier a Pip-Boy had when he was living in Vault 21. This is a device that is given to maybe every Vault inhabitant.
In every game of the Fallout franchise, the player is equipped with a Pip-Boy.
