Umm... Thread necromancy, anyone?

Right, my thoughts on Oxhorn's points. 1. Taking out the local BOS is, in my opinion, a public service. There's no place for a bunch of self righteous bunker-dwellers--who are a shrinking minority at best--to decide what everybody else gets to have technology-wise. You don't even have to...

So, I recently started another play-through of New Vegas, and as I approached Novac I was wondering about something. Namely, Davison and his band of nightkin. I can't help but wonder which is worse: Killing off the nightkin--considering that Davison is fairly reasonable and doesn't go complete...

Considering that Mr. House had the ability to shoot down incoming nuclear missiles with laser cannons mounted on the roof of the Lucky 38, there's a chance that he could divert enough power to take down one measly plane (or at least damage it to a point where it's not coming back around for...

To be fair, with the creation of RobCo--a nationwide industrial/economic juggernaut--a post-war recovery plan, the reconstruction/restoration of Vegas (to a degree, at least), and the fact that supposedly he was one of the minds behind a fair number of still-operating combat and civil-service...

I'm honestly torn between Mr. House and Raul. Mexican mechanic/cowboy (er, "vaquero") rad-zombies with all the sarcasm aren't exactly common. Meanwhile the businessman-despot doesn't quite have the same novelty, although he certainly gets points for the whole near-immortal genius bit and...

No Gods, No Masters. Maybe it's just because I enjoy the power-trip for what it is, outsmarting or outfighting both the Legion and the NCR. Maybe it's the idea of the ultimate conclusion: a Vegas untouched by foreign powers, free to thrive without impediment by corrupt bureaucrats to the West or...

I rather like the Tesla-Beaton prototype. It might not be the fastest or most efficient gun in the mojave, but I find having a means of discharging bolts of pure "fuck you" and disintegrating even the mightiest of foes to be incredibly satisfying. GO ALL ZEUS ON THE LEGION'S SORRY ARSE! If only...

I don't think that can even be dignified as any sort of proper quest. Just crappy busywork.

...Sometimes I really hate what the internet has done to games. Multiplayer was great, but now it's the ONLY thing the major studios seem to like working on because they can get more money from it.

I wouldn't keep my hopes up.

Not entirely sure if this is a thread necro, but I actually rather like the 50s aesthetic myself--although I suppose I'm a smidge biased when it comes to "vintage" everything. For the record, NV is the only fallout game I've actually played, although I can't say that the art-design choices in...

Well, I suppose the self-sustaining nature of the place certainly gives it added longevity. Out of curiosity, any reasons in particular behind such a choice?

...I know that. What I am saying is that if he didn't explicitly specify it as being under the Mojave, my first guess would've been that he was referring to Big MT.

If he didn't specify under the Mojave I'd like to imagine it had something to do with Big MT and all the weird pseudo-science buried within.

To clarify, I meant that cut-content was excluded from the no-mod-content rule.

As stated by the title, what would be your "dream" home location in the wasteland among the various places shown in the main fallout titles (1,2,3,NV,4)? Your top picks per-game would also work just fine. On another note, these places must be in the vanilla game (cut-content is excused from this...

In this case I suppose it would not simply be a matter of political correctness, but enforced political correctness (i.e. facing legal consequences or being ostracized simply for going against the political orthodoxy, such as how contradicting various feminist "leaders" is a quick way to get...

>Finland >Not Eastern European, but: Afghanistan On another note, just because the USSR annexed various countries doesn't necessarily mean that the takeovers and any other actions leading up to their formal annexation were "in" the Soviet Union. Imperialism was also mentioned in your friend's...

...Soviet-Russia was the Soviet-Union's founder; it was most certainly calling most of the shots up until it all started falling apart. To say that Russia isn't the Soviet Union, then...
