[@Konpekikaminari]

ahhh Quiet... I decided to bring her on a little side op to rescue someone from Da Samsei Laman I ordered her to get in position and start killing, and engaged myself. after about 5 minutes in which I sniped 3 people and spent the rest of the time dodging mortar shells I receive a message "outpost captured" girl literally wiped out the entire population of one of the largest Soviet outposts in the game by herself

[@Rikard_Nilsson]

yeah after a while of traveling across the country farming everything and everyone trying to fully upgrade the Base and stock it with S-rank troops I'd just send her to tranquilize an entire base every time on her own, I'd just order her over there using the map and start running over on foot and it would be cleared when I arrived.

[@Nighhhts]

***** Playstation isn't the best place to play online, if that's what you mean by "horrible experience". It's more of a single player gaming console, meaning that MP isn't really the highlight, that would go to the Xbox consoles. I would pick one up if I were you, there are some great games coming out, God of War, Spiderman, Horizon: Zero Dawn, RE7, Days Gone, Death Stranding (and since you have the MGS character, you must be interested in this game, considering it's being made by Kojima), Crash Bandicoot Remaster, Detroit: Become Human, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice (it's a timed exclusive, but still), and Final Fantasy IIV (7) Remake.

[@shanekrupp2687]

No she is always murdering herself. Like always. Walking in front of the bow you just shot. Even when that bow can one shot a dragon of legendary. Lydia just does whatever she feels like.

[@WhatIsSanity]

I remember accidentally stumbling into a forsworn camp at night when they had 25+ Reachmen and women well above My level; I had an enchanted bow and mage armour as My only protection against axemen,swords men and multiple projectiles that could instantly kill Me. Running was impossible as it would mean leaving My lovable companion to be murdered, also I would get shot in the back; Lydia was only kept alive by not being shot when knocked down and My healing spells and potions, all of which She had in Her possession. Still My hasty companion stormed into the centre of the camp lost to sight and sound, and I was left with five very eager enemies ready to tear Me apart, after half an hour or so of slowly painfully shooting them to death, I was alone. Alas My companion was lost, then Lo a lone women runs out of the dark, so dark was this person I could not identify them, I see a weapon I shoot and I hit true the woman is slain all I can see as she falls into the light is Her face, Lydia's face! It was not My faithful friend but another though. Finally after much searching I find My friend, all the Forsworn are gone never to be found, but there is My stuck full of arrows injured and brandishing a bloody sword.

Lydia was great if you were a hack and slasher, archer, or mage class; but go the "sneaky type" route and killing her almost becomes less of an accident and more like "stop giving away my location you over zealous #%$^&!!!!!".

DD from MGSV can actually do prisoner extractions by himself if you can extract the target with the fulton/wormhole when he's equipped with the fulton kit, you just get a bit close to the target (no need to have a line of sight with the prisoner) and tell him to go get it, he walks in, gets the prisoner, gets out, and none of the guards care if a wolf just rescued a prisoner by himself

I remember playing my second character where I actually got Boone, cause I Boone to kill Manny for his hat (Didn't know you get the beret from Boone if you find the right person and I was playing a morally ambiguous character). ED-E would play his battle music, I'd hear like a billion rife shots from behind me, the shots ringing out from Boone's bolt action rifle. And when I fully turned around to see what was happening all that remained were the dead, and Boone swinging his rifle back over his shoulder.

[@PsychoGamer2100]

I play Skyrim and I have seen Lydia be killed by enemies before. Only followers that have a story purpose like Aela or Serana are unkillable. Also Serana should have been the one on the list since she is the most useful follower. She carries your gear, can use magic, is unkillable, can turn you into a vampire if you want to be one, and she can make bloodstained arrows that blot out the sun if you are a vampire.

[@orangelizard9854]

[@edschramm6757]

Noble Team? having a squad of up to 5 invincible allies is extremely useful. They are probably what got me through most of my "A Monument to All Your Sins" run. probably also why the last level killed me over 100 times.... the last 2 segments have no bullet sponges...

[@isiahrodriguez64]

Fawkes was literally unstoppable. When I got him he would beat everything without breaking a sweat. Had to stop using him because it took the fun out of the game

[@kibblesthecommunisministic5684]

True I loved the guy

[@WyvernWolfe]

And I dismissed him because "I don't like companions dying"... God, I'm real smart...

[@ileryon4019]

What about Alyx in Half-life 2: EP 1?

[@aceventurasspear22]

Since you guys included Fawkes on this list, it’s really only fair to include Boone from New Vegas. He’s so efficient at killing things from long range, that I’ve been walking though the Wasteland and I’ve suddenly had the jump cut that signifies him slaughtering someone else, scaring the absolute hell out of me

[@haveitboi999]

outside xbox- talking out playstation exclusives while wearing a sega tshirt lol

[@Jambobist]

+eddy friday They'll be dishonorably discharged from the console war if they carry on like this.

[@spiderjerusalem100]

+eddy friday That's why i like this channel, they talk about games from lots of different systems. I don't even own an Xbox lol.

[@BlazinVoid59]

Meanwhile on Playstation Access they don't say anything about other consoles.

[@haveitboi999]

Serpico's Beard im the same as you. ive never had xbox i just like the channel :)

[@haveitboi999]

System32 you do need help cause you have blue screen of death

[@vladdracul5072]

So you're not a gamer?

[@Jedi_Spartan]

Halo Reach: Noble Team (err... some of them). If you want to complete a mission on Heroic or Legendary without dying then just choose a mission with as many members as possible, such as Winter Contingency, and just sit back behind cover while they deal with everything.

[@SapphireGamma]

Lydia? Pfft, Serana is FAR better and more entertaining.

[@SapphireGamma]

Also, Veronica, ED-E or Boone from New Vegas? No?

[@lewisbeynon8342]

+SapphireGamma This whole thread has been people praising boone, I'm a real veronica/arcade fan myself.

[@SapphireGamma]

Lewis Beynon Arcade and Veronica are awesome.

[@DconStarstormGaming]

[@Warbec]

Wait... from where is that initial footage of The Last of Us? I played the game from start to finish about 8 times including the DLC and never saw those scenes...

[@TheRedMage01]

+Harabec it was from one of the early trailers.

[@shaungibson4527]

that's from the reveal trailer

[@KnightmareFile]

+Harabec Man, I thought I was the only one missing out haha

[@cheddary2258]

[@Warbec]

[@blackwinghaseo3349]

Maneater Mildred fighting Quelaag. She was definitely useful as fuck.

[@ghorochak666]

Toaster Child Thanks. It's been a while. I usually rely on her as I play mage and run run out since you can't refill spells in this game.

[@toasterchild498]

lol "don't make me install broken steel"

[@keylonjones456]

oh and I don't understand why people say Lydia in invincible. she's not. on my first play through she was killed by an ice troll

[@keylonjones456]

oh and I don't understand why people say Lydia in invincible. she's not. on my first play through she was killed by an ice troll

[@alchemysaga3745]

I think in this case, Lydia was chosen because the list seems to be explicitly no-DLC. Look at him scolding Fawkes for the radiation incident. Housecarls have one of the highest in game level cap (once it was fixed) after DB initiates, and J'zargo, bothe of whom require specific questioned to have access to. Add in that Lydia, as the first house aro you can get, was giving a little more personality than others and the sentimental value, and it isn't surprising she is on the list. Granted, her personality is still rather bland.

[@ultimarad3866]

That's why Jordis the Swordmaiden is my favourite housecarl, she has all of Lydia's lines but with the much more eager voice of Ysolda.

[@propheinx2250]

Mercurio is a better non-DLC character than Lydia. I found him to be Skyrim's Boone where half the time you don't get to kill anything because he's already done it... Boone is still better though lol.

[@pplukepp-1958]

4:25 I. KILLED. HER! In 'boethiah's Calling' Anyone can die, even the immortal npc's

[@nyxxydosee1729]

Serana is 10x better than Lydia.

[@CerberusLives]

Definitely. She's also hotter. Not that that matters, but it's nice.

[@TheTrueWolfboy]

+CerberusLives It is extremely annoying that you can't marry her. She's the only NPC in the game who i'd even consider a match to the Dovahkiin. Well... except maybe Vex. If you're into tsunderes.

[@All4Randomness1]

Sven and Iona= best companions.

[@caramelfrappe402]

+TheTrueWolfboy With mods, anything is possible. Even marrying Serana.

[@TheTrueWolfboy]

Caramel Frappe With XBOX, mods aren't possible. At least not until next gen. :D

[@argenthellion]

Lydia, a badass? Really?! Dragon flies by, she chucks an arrow at it and barges head-on, only to die after two firebursts... reload, dragon flies by and she's dead... reload, dragon flies by and she's dead... and again... and again... and again...

[@seizedmeansofproduction4739]

I can hear that 1950s Carnival themed version of Girls Just Wanna Have Fun in the background; While I'm here, Elizabeth is unarguably one of the best platonic pals on this list.

[@Allison-qk1ws]

I don't know if I'm doing it wrong, but my Lydia is fully useless. She dies in like 3 hits and constantly wonders off.

[@tusslesprout6435]

+Adam Bomeisl i am with you on that she just gets in the way of my fighting.

[@maiqtheliar789]

+Adam Bomeisl Best to use mods that make Lydia and other followers essential I tend to use mods that allow for multiple followers and increase the amounts of enemies in game. Lydia and the other House carls are very good at melee if equipped properly. I usually use Mjoll, Lydia, Aela, and a few of the other house carls for melee and ranged combat. For magic support I usually have J'zargo and Serana around. If properly equipped that group can decimate most anything even in a massive battle. To fix the wandering off portion of follower issues there are many mods that allow you to teleport your followers to you.

[@maiqtheliar789]

+M'aiqThe Liar Also another reason to get a good follower mod is many of them raise or basically remove the level cap on followers. Non modded Lydia maxes out at level 50. With her main stats being health 671, stamina 214, heavy armor 100, one handed 100, block 100, archery 98, two handed 72. Not sure if NPCs and followers are effected by perks or not. Stat wise Lydia isn't badly built for a melee character. You just need to equip her to her strengths and don't forget to enchant her armor to boost her Health, stamina and damage buffs for the weapon types you want her to use. properly equipped with enchanted equipment it is possible to get Lydia to over 2000 health easy. While boosting her damage output to the point she can one hit bandit, imperials and storm cloaks. And be able to hold her own against any enemy in the game The same advice goes for any follower in game. Look up the stats and see what they are good at and what they are not and plan and equip and enchant accordingly.

[@paulthomas319]

ya Lydia was useless only follower with zero sneak and never fails to set off every trap in a area

[@theopinatedpterodactyl6559]

when i first got lydia, that bitch died on my first fight... it was a frostbite spider...

[@luc1ferous]

Having that funfair version of Girls Just Wanna playing is my jam... I hope the new Bioshock manages to continue the excellentness of Infinite even with our boy Ken doing his thing.

[@huuweee]

[@TheLastVoodooMan]

Well with the only alternative being Rex there really is no reason to...

[@mynameachef8614]

boone and rex were the perfect pair

[@rusticgiraffe4262]

Fawkes is made even better by his voice being the same as the arena announcer from Oblivion.

[@bleachwithmoredeadedition6989]

i thought quiet cant wear much cloths cause she breath through her skin

[@igorthelight]

+Melvin Melvin Yeah. But you can give her clothes and she will be fine )))

[@LithiaSinclair]

lydia? Useful? ... insert "???" meme here. She's about the worst skyrim companion you can have. The only one I've found worse is J'zargo and a few unimportant mercenaries.

[@smellslikeangryfish875]

HOW DARE YOU CALL J'ZARGO A BAD COMPANION *Ehm* There are no bad companions I think. Even Ogol from Largashbur proved to be a good follower to me. You just need to find someone who is willing to be a follower, gear them up real good (maybe even better than yourself) then let them tank the shit out. That is the only usefulness of followers anyway, in my opinion.

[@LithiaSinclair]

Sude Taşkıntuna Well, their strength in battle varies with their abilities, I've personally found Serana to be my favourite companion thus far, and she's incredibly strong. I traveled some tim ewith J'Zardgo and I just.. I don't know, didn't like it at all.

[@nikolaitheundying]

Cicero is definitely the best follower, nobody else can dance other than him

[@mag3wins]

they scale based on level. it was prob cuz u used her at lower levels.

[@LithiaSinclair]

+t long (Mag3wins) Ah I see. makes sense. Still xD I prefer almost any follower over her in terms of likeability. personal preference

[@ammoiori6946]

The crate dropping on the head of Quiet... really, really funny! xD

[@devinmcguire3982]

I will NEVER GUVE QUIET CLOTHES! Not because I'm some perverted teen, but because I think her outfit compliments her slim figure. It totally says "I'm a strong confident women that doesn't need a man!" I swear!

[@vimtokilla]

Suuuuuuuure that's what we all say

[@khariennui]

War fatigues say that significantly more clearly...

[@LazzyVamples]

The Sniper Wolf outfit gives her clothes without ruining her figure, so your point is moot.

[@ArdanTheHalfDragon]

Wasn't there some plot point about her absorbing life energy through the skin being why she's so scantily clad?

[@vimtokilla]

*SPOILER* She was part plant or something like that and absorbed light, hence the scantily clad-iness

[@sightseek3r]

Awesome except Fawkes was female, not "him", or "he"!

[@outsidexbox]

Lot of people saying that - what are you basing that on? The wiki reckons he's a guy called Shelton!

[@sightseek3r]

outsidexbox Well admittedly my memory is foggy on the subject regarding Fawkes specifically, but as I recall all of the Super Mutants were female before mutating. The men turned into the centaurs. But that could be entirely false based on the wiki, which is written by people who were probably way more invested in the game than I!

[@MrTrueCU]

+outsidexbox and im basing it on strawberries

[@ZBWorth]

+Dookus Maximus Centaurs are the result of some serious Frankenstein-like experiments, people and animals combined and then exposed to the Forced Evolutionary Virus. Super Mutants are humans, of any genders (Hence Lily in Fallout NV). There was some confusion based on a comment made by Fawke's voice actor, but the designers confirmed Fawkes is male.

[@lordfateweaver1851]

+Dookus Maximus fawkes was male, i think you are getting him mixed up with lily in new vegas.

[@eleanorsmith7152]

I know no ones ever heard of it, but in Locks Quest every time you’re paired with another Archenear is the best, I just hide behind my nice safe walls while your buddy does all the work.

[@metaloverlord99]

Paladin Danse in Fallout 4. With his indestructible Power Armour and his Laser Rifle, he's quite literally a walking tank. Also, the monster medals in the Dragon Quest Heroes games. They're especially useful when you need to protect a certain object or character.

[@BrendanStuart]

Literally just finished Spec Ops on the hardest difficulty as you started talking about it. Perfect timing for my 1000/1000 XD

[@bluejay7701]

Elizabeth: who are you? Booker DeWitt:I AM YOUR FATHER!!

[@FallingPicturesProductions]

AH yes, Quiet. The biggest stress reliever in MGSV. If you have a bad day, just watch her implode the skulls of Soviets with her Rifle. Granted, I've put well over a hundred hours into MGSV, and there are some times that she becomes more of an issue then a benefit, but her use is amazing. I was nearly crippled when *story developments* happened later on. Even as I creep toward 100% completion, her use continues to be invaluable. (I usually just had Quiet painted in blood anyways, until I got the Sniper Wolf costume) Even putting Quiet Aside, D-Dog from the same game is also a godsend in any mission that requires speed in a densely populated area. Quiet can scout out a location, true, but her scouting usually only covers about 70-80 percent of everyone there and ignores machinery and vehicles that aren't manned. D-Dog, as long as you keep him beside you, lets you stay aware of any all all enemies and weapons/vehicles within 100-120 meters of you, actively finds herbs, and can be a very effective distraction for sneaking up behind someone and interrogating them. Having these two alone makes it nearly pointless to use D-Horse or the Walker Gear in the game, as the former is just a faster way of crossing the map and the latter is too costly to justify.

[@ifudontlikeitdie]

A. Faendal is the first follower you get in Skyrim if you play it right. B. there are way more useful followers in Skyrim than Lydia, she won't outright murder people for you like the Dark Brotherhood assassins will and she caps out at level 50 when they cap out at 100.

[@SolidSonicTH]

Lugo and Adams are pretty good, I will agree. The command system is a bit fiddly but in terms of practicality they do come in handy.

[@netatsake]

I love how you put Quiet in here, but D-Dog is the one that actually gets the most use. Quiet's abilities are limited almost entirely to her ability to snipe people, and until you can get silencers for her, you can't use her in any mission if you're intending to go in quietly. D-Dog, on the other hand, gives you the option to go in quietly, while 'scent marking' anybody within a relatively large range, and the mark lasts well outside of that range. Plus he also serves as a distraction or a safe silent takedown, since he's pretty much ignored unless someone sees him attack somebody.
