Fun fact about Cazadors: their jittery, erratic movements were the result of a bug. They were originally going to fly around and walk slowly when on the ground.

And everyone around you suffers for it, lol.

30:07 Another nice touch: if you were to walk down the Interstate from the north, away from Quarry Junction towards Goodsprings, there’s a dialogue change from Chomps. Stuff like that makes this game so great

[@Darthmufin]

Actually, the opening quest with goodsprings is even better, because they (specifically sunny smiles) will teach you about magazines and how they can temporarily boost your skills, and if you explore first you might walk into the schoolhouse and learn this yourself. This generally means no matter how you built your character you still should be able to pass a few checks through magazine boosts. Additionally, if you somehow have 1,000 caps, you can give those caps to chet as a 'hidden' option that only shows up if you own that many caps when he initially refuses to help.

[@eclipsegst9419]

I have been prepping a Tabletop Fallout RPG lately, and as part of it, i have been reading the Fallout Project Van Buren design documents. This being the cancelled Fallout 3 that Black Isle never got to finish, thanks to Wizards of the Coast buying the DnD franchise and cancelling Baldurs Gate 3: The Black Hound, also being made by Black Isle at the time, for no good reason, which made them go broke. Anyways.... The Van Buren design documents detail the idea that for each and every area, there should be a list of skill checks, and that each possible build should be considered in each area, so that the player can always leave feeling satisfied that their build was put to use. You can see that they brought this idea forward to New Vegas when they made it.

[@GeorgeCowsert]

The fact that they give you alternate dialogue for low INT runs was completely unnecessary, and I adore it.

[@jaccobbailey8247]

Try out fallout 1, 2, and Arcanum. Completely different gameplay and perfectly fine if that’s not your thing, but good god low int runs in those are amazing. Arcanum is probably the best at it (you can play someone literally too stupid to read, get loads of quests, and you can get literally everyone’s names completely wrong on purpose. Vergil, a companion, will be on the verge of tears constantly if you’re stupid enough, and you can call him by his REAL name, “Vghaghhhhyhtst”, which he will react to accordingly. It’s amazing), but the first two fallouts can be really dumb fun, literally, for a sentient rock

Something of note: you can just ignore the Ghost Town Gunfight quest entirely and leave it for later, and instead go straight to the NCRCF to do quests for the Powder Gangers and get some positive karma ahead of time. You can even double cross both the Powder Gangers and NCR at the same time, by stealing the plans for the attack, promising to help the attack, then sneaking in and taking out all the other Powder Gangers while Stealth Boy'd. Talk to Eddie afterwards, and if you never got spotted taking everyone out, you can throw the plans at him, sneak out, and talk to the NPC you were supposed to to start the NCR attack. You'll get the reward from Eddie, then turn in the reward to the NCR.

It's a bit more complicated then that. The publisher Interplay had a development team called Black Isle, who made Fallout 1 and 2. Interplay closed the studio (don't know why) shortly after Fallout 2. Several members of Black Isle opened their own development studio, Troika Games. They made some much-loved but poor selling games (most notably Vampire: the Masquerade: Bloodlines) before going under. Some of those developers (including some from Black Isle) then opened Obsidian.

[@Boofcan]

Better in some ways, and weaker in others, but overall I enjoy New Vegas more out all of the 3D fallouts.

[@syncmonism]

If you want to get technical, this game was partially developed by Bethesda, because it borrows the same engine and a ton of the same graphics and sound assets, as well as a very similar combat system, from Fallout 3. The combat system from Fallout 3 was actually pretty good, but the New Vegas team did a much better job of making interesting characters, factions, and quests, which interact with each other in interesting ways.

[@PootisPenserPow]

I think the reason is that some of the devs worked on Fallout 1&2. More passion for the universe they built than Bethesda will ever have.

i really hate Mr. House, but he is probably the only real option the Mojave has. the NCR is on the brink of collapse and we know that it doesn't get better until it is way to late. the Legion is going to burn itself out in a matter of weeks, and that is on top of being cartoonishly evil. House is going to make hell a real place, but he is probably genuine in his goals of investing in technology that is required to keep humanity going at the end of the world.

I went for the benevolent House ending myself -- helping the followers, the kings, beating the hell out of the legion everywhere I could, helping out the NCR but not committing to fighting for them -- with 100 barter you can secure what is arguably the best ending for the Mojave, a House-run Vegas protecting the outlying territories while having essentially open borders and free trade with the NCR. One thing I wish I hadn't done was wipe out the Great Khans, but I won't mourn a single powder ganger, who I wiped out to a man with an honest to God smile on my face. Also wiped out the fiends, because raiders of any stripe are bad for business. Also helped the Boomers, just because I thought they were neat.

[@Travybear1989]

It's kind of sad that this game exists. It came out over a decade ago and nothing that has came out since is anywhere close to as good. Obsidian captured lightning in a bottle with New Vegas, it's the only semi-modern video game where every choice matters and you can help or hinder any faction you come across. There are no wrong answers and there is no true good or bad choice as each decision ends up screwing somebody over while helping another once you get past the early game. Fallout 3/4 were pathetic excuses for roleplaying because most choices were arbitrary in that they were wither black or white and playing an evil character would generally ruin your game or hinder your progress substantially while making nice decisions would open up a lot of routes that just made everything easier. I mean, if you turn in the synth in Rivet city you just get caps and a fairly useless perk, if you refuse to turn it in you get a fucking unique PLASMA RIFLE and if you nuke Megaton you lose access to the most convenient home in the game with a single loading screen, a follower, access to a few quests, and potentially a bobblehead, even the side quest for turning in scrap metal. There are almost no reasons to even do so unless you just want to witness it once or twice for the shock value. Even if you sacrifice your character in the end of the base game you just get plot armor that allows you to continue anyways, there is almost no reason to play evil save for a singe quest "Tranquility Lane". It's just weak game design. As for Fallout 4, good god... I don't even know where to begin. To even enjoy the game you have to pull up the console and type player.modav carryweight 99999 or you'll have to go back and forth to pick up all the junk you need for the retarded settlement system. Then you have Preston Garvey handing out side quests every single time your characters goes near him, then there is the shitty main story where all of the factions are equally uninteresting so you just pick the side with the best rewards or just type in the codes for the specific faction rewards because fuck the Railroad, fuck the BOS, fuck the Minutemen, and fuck the Institute. Also, the city of Boston has entire areas that are mostly unused save for collecting junk where you might run across a few rabid dogs or the rare ghoul but nothing else. Then there are the followers, there was a robot guy, the token mutant, the token dog, strong woman, female Redditor, oh... and the minuteman guy Preston Garvey who only masochists would use because of his never-ending quests. Your house robot is the only good one to be honest because you can modify it to shoot miniguns and lasers and basically turn it into a tank. Sorry, just really got zero enjoyment out of 3 and 4. 1 and 2 were pretty good with 1 being the easiest and shortest and 2 being punishingly difficult and taking forever. New Vegas and 2 are definitely the best though and it's not even close.

[@nijunikuro]

There *is* variety in how to complete the "Come Fly With Me" quest. For example, it's actually possible to talk to the leader of the nightkin and resolve the conflict peacefully - and if you figure out that the dino toys sold in Novac are radioactive, you can get a bunch of them instead of getting the proper rocket fuel. The Van Graffs *don't* "vaporize a man for wanting to negotiate on price". They disintegrate a man who stole from them in front of the man who tried to haggle to intimidate him.

[@Boofcan]

In the final version of the game is the previous audio cut when you enter the building? Because I’ve never heard the stealing part in game. As for Come Fly with me this is true. The first half is decent. I liked the B plot with the ghoul and dealing with the nightkin. I might be in the minority but I just wasn’t a fan of the ending.

[@spookyscarysteve]

@@BoofcanAs far as I can tell when I play, Honest Hearts is about the drives people have. Graham is driven by hate, Daniel is driven by the need to protect, Followe-Chalk is driven by wanderlust, The Sorrows follower is driven by missing a family member, and the White Legs are driven by wanting to join the Legion. OWB is about forgetting the past and moving towards the future- letting go, similar to Dead Money, but letting go of nostalgia rather than letting go of things like Hate, or Greed- This is shown by the Think Tank. Kept in a cycle of the past, kept in a loop of testing by Mobius, who is rightfully fearful that if the Think Tank stops obsessing over the past, they’ll ruin the future. The Courier is the one who either corrals their broken minds into a non-horrible future, or ends the problem by offing the Think Tank. Either way, the past is forgotten, and the future is there. All four DLCs share similar themeing. Honest Hearts has the Drives of Mankind, particularly Joshua’s past- and how the healthiest thing he can do is let go of his hate. This connects to Dead Money, as Dead Money has letting go, which connects to OWB of letting the *past* go, which connects to Lonesome Road- of the Past, of one’s Personal past- which loops right back to Graham.

When it comes to Fallout. I personally don't like the games having direct sequels. I'd rather have them set in different states of the US. Or if the next game is going to be set to the adjacent state, have it be set 50 years later/before. This way, the natural progression of time would make any changes and additions you introduce believable to the people who've played the previous game. Lastly. As much as possible, don't reuse factions from previous games. Especially if the game is set far away and their ideology and policies contradict their origins. (East Coast BoS)
