FMS Northern Star: Harrowing Fallout 4 Shipwreck
Fallout 4 offers a world full of unforgettable sites. Everything from vibrant communities like Diamond City to vault-tec vaults used for twisted experiments is available. However, there are also some more unusual locations you could only visit seldom or discover by veering off the main road. Particularly if you go out into the Glowing Sea, these places can be rather barren.
Fallout 4 features multiple shipwrecks as well. Sitting atop a building close to Bunker Hill, the USS Constitution is one prominent shipwreck. Another shipwreck is off the coast of Spectacle Island, an abandoned island once owned by a billionaire with potential for development. Although investigating these shipwrecks is fascinating, one shipwreck in particular can be quite horrifying.
The Language Barrier of the FMS Northern Star Raiders Creates Sadder Fate
Found in the Commonwealth along the coast opposite Spectacle Island, the Fms Northern Star is a shipwreck. If you want to gather every bobblehead in the game, it's worth going. Ascending the metal containers within the shipwreck and heading toward the stern will let you board it. From there, you can descend into the inside of the ship on a lifeboat.
Among the excellent stuff on the ship are an Agility bobblehead, a mini-nuke, a Stealth Boy, a fusion core, and more. To get this stuff, though, you will have to fend off a group of raiders—as with most sites in Fallout 4. These raiders are special though because they speak Norwegian. Though most Fallout 4's characters speak English, these raiders don't.
Unless you already speak Norwegian, the subtitles of the game won't help you grasp what they're saying. The conversation turns into the raiders telling you to go and declaring they wish to be left alone. Understanding this makes the Fms Northern Star raiders' destiny even more tragic. After the bombs dropped, they were left maroon in a foreign country without means of assistance. They most certainly stopped exploring the larger world and stayed together on the ship since they are caught on the wreckage. Many of them most likely became ghouls from this point. Any survivors had to see their colleagues become ghouls defending against other species and factions. Not surprisingly, they simply want to be left alone.
You could grow numb to the violence in Fallout 4 after battling so many other groups and creatures in the wasteland. Whether they know what the FMS Northern Star raiders are saying or not, many players might overlook their attempts at bargaining. For Norwegian speakers, it's a fascinating moral conundrum. But for a lot of players, it will go entirely unnoticed.
You must visit the FMS Northern Star if you want every collectible in Fallout 4. You will sadly have to fight the raiders, who will usually launch first strikes. This means that, regardless of your understanding of their attempts to negotiate or not, they will die—a sad ending for their lonely and desolate lives.
