Valley Galleria

[迪亚哥]

Why is this mall built in a remote place? It looks like it is more than ten kilometers away from Watoge. . , I explored almost the entire mall and didn't find any secrets. Did I miss something?

Does anyone know what the mystery of this mall is?

The scale of the thing, tiny house on the outside, huge football pitch inside, so strange.

I think when i went there is was for a holo tape, so long ago

Yes, it looks like a store from the outside, but it is actually a shopping mall when WE go inside.

This mall doesn’t seem to have any mystery. .

checking the wiki (not using fandom anymore as the site now forces you to watch ads no surprise there!) there are a few holo tapes actually from Jacob and Lucy Journal, need to do a bit of searching with the old eye balls i'm afraid

this one should shed some light;

I was recently looking into the mystery of the normal US Army soldiers that were found during the main quest, and I wondered why these "normal guys" didn't join the Brotherhood or the Enclave, but chose to remain G.I.

oh I know who you mean, I mentioned the enclave to them, they said something like "modus reminded them of a radio broadcaster" they said jokingly

There stance was they were a bit of joke.

I'm pretty sure you can find all the dialog you might have missed out on the net somewhere

The whole Mire area is half baked. It was probably the last area to be made and rushed.

You can kind of tell as the Red Rocket and Super Duper Mart up the road don't belong there. They contain mining items and were probably moved out of The Ash Heap.

It is mostly empty too, particularly along the borders.

Bethesda missed a trick to use the Galleria as a showcase for the Atomic Store.

Another rush job from Bethesda.

Yes, netizens reminded me that they are the last 1,000 G.I.

Use a proper adblocker like uBlock Origin.
I haven't seen ads on the internet for 20+ years. 🤷

I have ad blockers, these are embedded video ads that are not blockable, my gripe is that particular site has just changed it so you can no longer pause the vid - it forced me to watch, you could before pause and scroll an just ignore, but now, you can't pause it and it turns floaty as you scroll.

They have changed how ads work in the last 20 years and got around adbockers by disguising what seems like content as an ad.

how or why this has become the topic, I don't care I found another site, site will lose traffic over change, boo who.

Yes you missed something. Last time I was there a Scorchbeast was flying in through the ceiling in one spot and out of the ceiling at another spot,
It kept doing that over and over until it disappeared.

Regarding the remoteness, rural US can be like that - countryside for miles then a large retail center in the middle of nowhere. But actually central to several towns e.g. on a road junction or highway. Plus many roads ran along valleys where houses and small towns were spread out along the road, so you had to drive somewhere to get supply no matter what. Pan around on Google Maps.

Try Chrome browser instead if those ad vids annoy you. Blocks them on my pc.

It’s a TARDIS. Trying to wrap my brain around the internal map and the exterior gives me a headache so I try not to think about it.

There is a glitch where a scorchbeast is spawned to attack the nearby workshop. It can glitch and appear inside the Galleria instead. One time I went in and there were three of them making passes. Took a while to kill because the times we had to hit them were very limited.


Regarding the location of the Galleria. It’s not that far from Harpers Ferry. Something else to consider about its locational. In the 70’s in the US, it was not uncommon for giant malls to be built not right next to the population centers. Build far out, and the land is much cheaper than nearby. It also allows urban sprawl to reach out to that area.
