    Helping out Benny a lot more than anyone would anticipate

    When I read the thread title, I thought you were talking about fucking him. It still makes me cringe when I remember my character doing that.

    Equipping NPCs

    Cass never seems to use anything I give her. I tried rifles, I tried shotguns. Nothing. And this is with her complaining about the state of her weapon and how it's doing no damage. Veronica's fine with her Super Sledge.

    Glitches that you love/hate.

    I made a melee character to try out Hardcore mode (which never went anywhere because I realised I'd just be distracting myself from my main playthrough) and decided to attack the doc right at the start of the game - just to see how melee works in the game. It didn't go well and that old guy...

    How rich are you in Vegas?

    I've barely gambled - I just tried out roulette a bit and thought it was cool how if you lose and then reload, it says the croupier is "checking the table for potential cheating" or something like that, and won't let you spin again for 60 seconds. I have something like 30,000 plus a load of NCR...

    Best Combat Builds

    Well I think I just found the best weapon in New Vegas. I forget the name, it's something like PN-3 (basically numbers and letters) but it's a plasma weapon that uses 4 ammo per shot (that's one of the disadvantages). It easily one-shots Deathclaws with a headshot and has a zoom function. It...

    Why are so many of the Fallout mods in Russian/Polish/etc?

    Wait, are people saying "western" to mean "American" here? I think American stuff is usually incredibly idealistic and naive, this is especially typified with Disney movies which tend to take more weird and morally ambiguous tales and strip them of every single thing that makes them interesting...

    Gambling in Fallout 2

    Oh, so they do have roulette again rather than craps? Just in New Reno? Thank God for that. Yeah, once when I played Fallout 1 I had a pretty high Gambling skill - not too high, though, just about 60% or so - and I found that once you'd started the gambling process, you could press 4 then 1...

    Who here has Dead Space 2

    I never really took the first 2 Resident Evils as horror games per se. I mean, sure, they have horror elements in but I always felt they were more like modern (at the time) adventure games that happened to have very light action in. I mean, Gabriel Knight has horror elements in it and you can...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    I'm playing so many games I've had to come up with a system to make sure I get to play them all frequently enough. Fallout 1, 2 and New Vegas (replaying the first two, of course), Gabriel Knight, Broken Sword 2, Machinarium, Blazblue Continuum Shift, Deadly Premonition, Arham Asylum...

    Fallout 1 unfair combat

    At level 12 with unarmed, I defeated the Master fairly easily just by punching his eyes, like some eye-hating maniac. Fortunately, a lot of the Super Mutants that came in behind me would kill each other by missing me and hitting each other. Lou (that's the lieutenant mutant, right?) was a lot...

    Fallout 1 unfair combat

    What the hell? I find Fallout 1 really easy. I completed it using only HtH at level 12. As for that room the thread starter was talking about, I walked into that room to rescue the BoS guy and killed everyone easily with unarmed combat (with a power fist, though). I didn't have power armour on...

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    To be honest, the nicest thing about that trailer is how the writing rotates so it's side-on and becomes 11-11-11, the launch date. Other than the ugly faces and scarecrow bodies, they need to sort out the Gamebryo animations. The people moved unnaturally and unconvincingly. There was also a...

    Fallout 1 - What city type would you add?

    Well maybe you're picturing the lords and ladies element too much like they'd be in a Disney cartoon or Shrek or something. There are two ways of doing it. On one hand you could make it a parody of America basically making a giant plastic castle to attract visitors whereas in Europe, Euro Disney...

    Where can I buy Fallout 1 or 2?

    For anyone from the UK, you can get Fallout 1, 2 and Tactics in that boxed set from Amazon for only about £8. Free postage.

    Gambling in Fallout 2

    I did search for "gambling fallout 2" but didn't seem to get any relevant results. I tried to gamble in the Den by clicking on the person by the roulette table, but it was this incomprehensible game that I actually got stuck in (stuck in the dialogue tree, that is) and had to force the game...
