Can You Beat Fallout: New Vegas WITHOUT Breaking The Ten Commandments?

Personally, I would argue from the point that because the 6th commandment is "Thou shalt not murder" you are still allowed the right to self defense. Murder is a malicious criminal act. Self-defense is an act of self-preservation against hostile intents. But I'm not a biblical scholar. So, take my interpretation of things with a grain of salt. I prefer not to use religious avenues to justify such things anyways. I'm vehemently anti-abortion, but I'd never say "Well god says it's wrong to murder babies, so don't do it."

[@craigsovilla6578]

This is probably one of the best roleplays I think I've seen, and it makes me want to attempt it myself. I don't know how I would have handled Mr. House because it just doesn't feel right to me to just simply leave him in his box. I feel as though that's a fate worse than death.

[@madbrosheo1514]

These are so good. It’s such a specific, but also interesting challenge run. I myself sorta did this just for role playing reasons, though I still killed for self defense. If you’re looking for more games to do this kind of run in, I think Cyberpunk 2077 would be an interesting one. I’m not sure if it would be possible, but I’m pretty sure you can get through the game without killing anyone at least.

[@Flamme-Sanabi]

"The Heist" is quite literally a mission you must do to proceed with the story, where you, aspriring merc, are trying to steal something from the mighty powerful Arasaka. My brother in Christ, that is thievery, I believe.

​@@Flamme-SanabiThere is one way that this could work, that being if you subscribe to the (potentially quite likely) idea that Yori was complicit in the Heist as part of his 5head masterplan to destroy Arasaka. If so, it could be seen as a willing handover, or at the very least borrowing. I mean, V does return Johnny to Mikoshi in the end, right?

Here's my question, how fast can you break all 10 commandments in fallout new Vegas?

[@vitriolicAmaranth]

Taking a god before Him may be difficult. I can't even think of any idols in the game; "Graven images" is vague enough taken as-worded in English that you could argue several things count and maybe you could just like draw a stickman with bulletholes and call it a day. I'm not sure there are even any chances to explicitly dishonour your father and mother. And adultery could actually require a bit of speedrunning strats to get to Gomorrah fast.

By the way, you could've gotten onto the Strip using the monorail without stealing an NCR uniform. You don't need a uniform to ride it, the uniform just makes it so the guards won't become hostile if you walk through (and they'll become friendly again once you leave anyway)

The most interesting thing about this challenge is that in Christian theology, the commandments (and God's law more broadly) are there to show you its impossible to keep them and your need for salvation in the form of God himself (Jesus) Even with foreknowledge of every conversation, questline and character it's still an almost impossible task to not break God's law. Life is messy, but grace is available to all who turn from their rebellion and follow Him.

[@connorwinton4343]

the killing rule is really interesting as killing in the sense of self defense, war, and animal sacrifice are talked about at great length in the bible and are not considered sin. The word used in the hebrew bible is actually ratzach which translates to murder, not kill. Now, if you were to do a buddhist challenge then killing would be verboten entirely. That might be interesting tbh.
