Andy revealed his younger brother Evan Stromer, 24, was also in critical condition at the hospital due to diabetes complications.
Evan survived the night in the intensive care unit, but in the morning he flatlined. Andy concludes his post, “It’s going to suck wandering this real world without my little brother. But at least he got to meet my son. Ad Victoriam little Brother. I’ll see you in the wasteland.”

Fallout 4 dev Bethesda saw Andy’s Reddit post, and some time in the last two months and they sent him a care package. But that’s not all they did. Andy posted yesterday to Reddit detailing his discovery: Evan Stromer has been immortalized as a character in the most recent Fallout 4 expansion, Nuka World.
Evan is kind, friendly, and freely offers the player a recipe for “Nuka Cola: Love.” He tells the player that he’s been out in the wasteland for years now, and that he loves to relax and enjoy the view. Andy says the character doesn’t look exactly like his brother, but “they captured his essence pretty decently.” As far as other players go, Andy says “don’t feel guilty about taking his stuff! He insists you take it and in real life he would give you the shirt off of his back to help those in need.”

It is always good to see when companies recognize their fans.
