Fallout: New Vegas - The Worst Courier

Fallout: New Vegas returns with the Worst Courier Challenge - taking on every danger in the Mojave wasteland as the worst character possible, and that means radical new tactics, weapons and locations I've never shown off before, and a whole lot of fatal mistakes...

@@HorizonofOsiris Technically no, but stats can be tracked below zero. that means you have to increase your stats above the negatives as well. The stat won't be reduced to lower then 1 for any gameplay mechanics and such, but if you ever increase the stat, then the withdrawals will still be reducing it, negating the increase. In the end, you can take advantage of the lack of withdrawal reduction when the stats are at 1 because it doesn't make a difference, but once you want to start increasing them through any means, levels, clothes or other methods, you need to get rid of the reductions to the stat.

It's good for roleplaying but it's absolutely useless as a special stat in FNV. There are only two CHR checks in the entire game and it's only used to govern Barter and Speech, which can be increased easily with skill points. Starting with 10 INT is also a bad decision as you'll be missing out an extra SPECIAL point that you could use on something other than INT. If you start with INT 9 you can get the INT implant from the New Vegas Clinic.

fallout4 kill everything wouldn’t really work because half the npcs can’t die

[@Th1sUsernameIsNotTaken]

@@simpking1513, That is false. most can actually die once certain conditions are met. Though I'm pretty certain He has stated he doesn't want to be known as the "kill everything" guy so has no plans on doing as such.

Probably the greatest start in Goodsprings I've ever seen lol

[@Tripp426]

Jon you magnificent man! This idea is hilariously brilliant. I am excited as all heck to see where this series goes.

[@Reciprocation_of_goodwill]

You’re a genius, don’t ever doubt yourself

[@Whodunit871]

Jon murders an innocent man and then steals his clothes and then has the balls to say “I saved 20 caps by wearing his clothes!” You’re a monster. And I love it.

I'm preparing for a medical procedure today, and it certainly isn't fun, this is exactly what I needed. Thank you Jon.

[@codsworth3996]

Good luck.

[@dELTA13579111315]

Do a flip!

[@shushupyounaughtyminx4832]

Wren Is A Bird good luck!

[@SeverinPerovic]

Just as I finished re-watching your NV YOLO run too. Couldn't be happier with the timing on this :^)

[@Tuulos]

His face reminds me of DiCaprio in Inception meme.

[@ewokYT117]

Finally, this is awesome. Thank you, Thank you.

[@scroobly2636]

I always though it was a reference to fallout 3 main character. Your character is the lone wanderer and it’s called lone wolf radio, plus it’s got the wasteland survival guide

[@SafetyRabbit]

This is actually super fascinating. Good stuff!

[@DeusExBrockina]

Ahhh I first started watching MATN years ago for the FNV and FO3 challenge runs. This is nice and nostalgic ^_^
