There are many secrets in Fallout 4 that help you better understand the story. But there is one that often goes unnoticed by players and adds depth to the game.

Fallout 4 is quite popular among fans of the franchise, partly due to the many secrets hidden in its open world. However, while some are well known, others remain unknown to players, such as this clue found in the game's opening.

Thus, while Fallout is known for its post-apocalyptic universe, one phrase recurs frequently throughout all the titles, claiming that war never changes. Realistic but philosophical, this phrase is pronounced during the creation of the main character in Fallout 4.

If you pay a little more attention to the conversation between the main character and his wife, or vice versa, you'll notice that they're talking about the speech that the player is supposed to give that evening at the Veteran's Hall, during which he has to say this sentence.

But because of the events that take place immediately after, it goes without saying that this will never happen. Yet there is a wink to this iconic phrase.

According to @FilmsFallout on X, if you go to the Fraternal Post 115 at the Veteran's Hall during your game, you will find a terminal dedicated to your character and you can go to a microphone to say this famous sentence.

This well-kept secret adds depth to Fallout 4, particularly by introducing a philosophical aspect. And if you continue to explore the game map, you may make other surprising discoveries.
