Here's my ruleset. Be warned: it's complicated docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1djLYUZp7iUxRtWbdCW…

This is a horrible run to undertake and I don't suggest that anyone else should do it. This was 90 hours of learning the true extent of California Compliance in the Wastelands of Fallout 4. It was cool that I became a space marine though.

0:01:43 A brief summary of the rules
0:05:39 A minute of appreciation
0:06:32 How bad can this be?

0:17:53 Hydration quest
0:24:20 Making friends
0:27:32 Getting a (better) gun
0:32:01 Feral ghouls might be a problem
0:36:04 Feral ghoul hell
0:39:53 Don't touch the power armor: the ammo run from hell
0:43:33 Charl vs. Hubris Comics
0:48:08 Cooking segment: pastrami burger
0:51:36 My cursed technique
0:54:36 Another settlement needs my help
0:59:54 Strength means nothing when everyone has rocket launchers
1:02:01 I am California Compliance's strongest warrior

    Wow! I was not expecting this much of a positive response from this video! I guess I'll go ahead and say now that I'd be crazy NOT to do another one of these challenges in Fallout: New Vegas so yeah, it's happening now. It's not gonna be for a while though as I've gotta get ready for my yearly Halloween in July event plus the vids I mentioned at the end of this one like Transformers and Pathologic 2. Also, please understand that there's no way I can fill a Mitten Squad-shaped hole in your hearts: no one can replace him and I'm not going to try. Challenge runs are a lot of fun and I'd like do do more of them every once in a while, but in no way am I just gonna start only doing those now. My love is still Immersive Sims and weird little horror games. But hey, I can balance those two things so I'm sure I can throw an occasional challenge run into the mix as a treat. Maybe like, one or two a year.

    Furiously googling Power Fist compliance laws in California

    Man it's fucked up that certified lawyer Charlatan Wonder made this video in part as a way to give legal advice.
  • @AdDelayed
    Just here to say that Mama Murphy calls Dogmeat Dogmeat. You have to ask if he's her dog when she mentions him, but she responds with something like, "Dogmeat is his own man" and then implies that it's a good sign of character if he likes you.

    "Mitten Squad is gonna have a field day with this one" Damn. He would have. RIP.

    If a handgun is 50 years or older, it's automatically a c&r handgun and exempt from the roster, which every handgun would be 200+ years old, unless it's a newer pipe gun.

    funnily enough, california listing a cannon as an example of a destructive device is the most ironic thing in existence. This is because one of the explicit examples given by the founding fathers for a weapon that shall never be limited was, in fact, a cannon. You are even explicitly noted as being able to use one in notarized legal documents.
  • The funniest part is that the original inspiration, a messed up obrez, is expressly illegal by CA law
  • “Ignorance of the law is not an excuse. Now pay 200$ a month to read about all the stuff we are charging you with”
  • Hate to be that guy but: Penal Code 399.5 is the California statute that makes it a crime for a person to own a dog that is trained to fight, attack or kill, provided that he knows the dog is dangerous and: the dog bites a person, on two separate occasions or more, or. the dog bites a person once and causes a substantial injury.
  • Damn, that minute of appreciation actually really touched me. That's honestly really sweet of you to include as a simple way of brightening our day.
  • @CharlatanWonder
    WOAH! I was not expecting this to get anywhere near a million views! Thank you all so much!
  • @user-lt9nb9dx7t
    Until the very end I was afraid that ATF will come and shoot dogmeat 😢

    “Today we’re doing a California compliance run!” sighs deeply unequips all items that aren’t clothes

    As soon as you said "Let's take a minute for ourselves because I'm not into sponsorship", I subbed.
  • 6:17 good reminder, I was having a bad day but today I did see several birds returning for spring so that was nice

    Fallout 4: takes place in and around Boston Charl: follows California laws
  • Nick Valentine was a Law Enforcement Officer. He could have used his old Service Weapon. EDIT: Local, not Federal
