Halfway through the war, a decision was made. After several unsuccessful assassination attempts, the Ministry of Arcane Sciences and the Ministry of Wartime Technology cooperated in what was to be the (arguably) greatest failed project of the entire war. Crippled by public opinion and ethics, it was announced as a failed project and supposedly abandoned. Or, at least, that's what everyone thought.
The truth was, too many resources had been poured into this project to just walk away. Lives had been lost, budgets had been spent, and time had been wasted. So, research and development continued unofficially, as the ministry mares turned a blind eye.

This project, was 'Project Rapture'.

This, as you may or may not have guessed, is a story based upon Fallout: Equestria. It is also pretty heavily 'inspired' (stolen) from Bioshock 1 and 2.

I've basically assumed that you've read 'Fallout: Equestria'. If not, some details might not make sense to you. So, if you haven't read it, go and check it out at Equestria Daily
Any constructive criticism is completely welcome, since I'm pretty new to writing fanfics.

You have a very interesting concept here. I will fav to see further updates.:pinkiehappy:

or do you have a different design? regardless this has a lot of potential as a concept so im favoriting to follow this:pinkiehappy:
also if he is a big daddy in pony concept is he going to be acquiring a little filly to accompany and keep safe:rainbowhuh:

That's pretty much exactly what I was going for!
Well, barring the drill on the head. If he had that, escape would be a whole lot easier.

He'd also have slots/a frame for a battlesaddle to be attached, but that's just a small detail.


I haven't got all the story details ready quite yet, so he may or may not get a filly.

First of all, welcome to the FoE sidefic herd :twilightsmile:

I must say, I like both the premise and the triple-crossover (much like my own fic :twilightsheepish:). Also, your character's back story has thus far been very interesting. Have a fav and a thumb :yay:

I've found that the FIMFiction community is often very supportive and willing to provide feedback, and since a good many have done just that for me, I think it's about time I did it for someone else. So here's a short list of a few things I noticed:

You've used the same pair of words twice in two consecutive sentences, which doesn't scan well. Synonyms are your friend in situations like these :pinkiesmile:

Finally he reaches me, and raises his tool menacingly. I cringe, pulling away from him with all my might, before he locks the wrench onto a small winch to the side of me.
I freeze, staring at the winch, before he utilizes the tool.

Your paragraphing is a little disjointed. It's a good technique to speed up a scene with short paragraphs and brief sentences/dialogue, but you seem to have taken a new line after every sentence at certain points.

I scream in agony and fear, a river of blood flowing from my face and chest, before a loud crack pierces the thuds of Gutter's fists.
"Enough!" The crack sounds again, but Gutter still shows no sign of stopping. A third crack, and Gutter yelps in pain and slumps to the ground.
I am able to vaguely recognize the shape of a pony approaching me, wearing a large, orange rifle on a battlesaddle.
"Someone get the Para-medics! Gutter's been at it again!"
I lie whimpering on the ground, clutching my face. As the figure nears me, I recognize him as the warden of my prison block.

You missed a capital letter here.

I turn to face gutter,

These should probably be 'hoof-to-hoof' and 'hooves'. (I have noticed however that you correctly used 'hands' as the unit of a pony's height :twistnerd:)

boulder-like fists

,

fight hand-to-hand.

I hope this is helpful! Keep that plot progression going - I'm looking forward to getting to know your protagonist better :pinkiehappy:

ST

great chapter. So how come he hasn't spoken yet(to his captors i mean)? Is he mute or is he just that silent type of guy (understandable seeing as he wakes up to find out hes been out of it for a LONG time).
welp, other than being kinda confused a bit:derpytongue2: this was a good chapter to get some background knowledge on good ole fishbowl head :pinkiehappy:
as for being an editor well i would have no idea at all how to so sorry:twilightblush:

2147416
Thanks for all the advice!
Hopefully the mistakes should be corrected now.
I've decided not to correct the paragraphing errors yet, but I shall definitely bear that in mind for future chapters, and I will most likely change that at some point in the future.

2147419 I'm gonna go with him being unable to speak, either from physical trauma or from Psychological conditioning.
That might change in the future though :ajsmug:

Glad to be of help :raritywink: Did you said you were looking for a pre-reader?

2147494
Yeah, I mean, if you're offering then I'll gladly accept :pinkiehappy:
And if you can't do it yourself, then just suggesting someone is also a great help!

Just realised that I didn't save the edits. :derpyderp1:

2147510

Yeah sure :pinkiesmile: Are you on the compilation document btw? Just logged in and saw you in the chat window :rainbowlaugh:

This is probably one of the most consistent Fallout Equestria side stories that I've ever read. Keep up the excellent work.

Hazzah finally got to reading this! Welp now its time for Red Eyes obvious villainous speech about using him for his needs and whatnot. Maybe throw in a mustache twirl with a good BWAHAHAHAH!
Just a quick little question but are you able to see any facial features through his helmets visor or is it reflective and whatnot? Well anyways thanks for spending your own time into writing this for readers and such. Its a good story so far :twilightsmile:

2180146
Sorry for the delay! I've been contemplating life, and regretting writing this in the present tense.
You wouldn't be able to see his face, but the glass isn't reflective. In Bioshock, the Big Daddy's visor glows yellow, or other colours depending on their mood. This glow obscures the inside of the helmet, so that's what I'm using as an excuse.

good fic keep writing :yay:

Pretty good start, I'd say. Will there be Plasmids in this or just the Big Daddy concept?

Great chapter but is a bit boring I know filler chapter but still umm by? I guess.
