As someone who's only dabbled in FO1 and 2, and beaten NV, would I still get enjoyment out of the story, or does it rely on understanding the lore at large?

Edit: Avoided reading the posts to avoid spoiling myself just in case, so sorry if this was answered

Not at all. They explain everything pretty well. Being familiar with the games isore just to spot the Easter eggs.

My interpretation was that Vault 33 somehow had very basic knowledge of the current world above, and were at least educated on simple terminology like Raiders and BoS Knights. That's why Lucy instinctually pointed the Geiger counter on her Pip-Boy at her 'husband' when shit was starting to go down.

IMO it's a bit of an incongruity that could've been easily fixed with a simple dialogue tweak (have Lucy marvel "wow, Power Armor!" and a bystander correct her with "that's a Knight, kid"), but it's not a dealbreaker by any stretch.

But even her using her Pip Boy is just because she knows anyone from the surface would be irradiated. They know that there are people on the surface and they're under the impression they're basically all savages who need to be guided. I think they knew raiders would be a possibility.
