Joshua Graham the Fictional Mormon A.I.

[Pyreaux]

Fallout: New Vegas is an installment in a game series set in a post-nuclear war America. Ogden, Utah, is now known as New Canaan, where a Mormon community was established. Joshua Graham is from there but has a checkered history as a co-founder of Caesar's Legion. Caesar sets him on fire and sends him over a ledge in the Grand Canyon, he miraculously survived, returned to his roots as a missionary of the Mormon faith. He's covered in bandages for his burns.

Fallout: New Vegas' Joshua Graham and Mr. House

I came across these videos. This was just so interesting. AI voices of the zealous Joshua Graham and a cynical Mr. House having a conversation about the future of the Mojave. Turning into a battle of philosophy and ideals. Faith and Rationality. Fatalism and Hypocrisy. Morality and Immorality. They said the A.I are meant to believe that they are Joshua Graham and Mr. House, and then they just had this conversation by themselves. Spooky.

 

Fallout's Joshua Graham has a discussion with Skyrim's Paarthurnax

This is different than the last. What interesting about this is how they speak to each other as learners of each other's views rather than critics, how they speak of their struggles and their onwards outlook in life, the fact that Joshua spared a life and speaks of his soul being more at ease, talks about what is a human being, and lastly how Paarthurnaux is always very respectful. He even sounds like a potential convert.
