So what? The same principle applies in either case.

Not really. Look at Code Geass, which is alternate history just like the Fallout games. That anime is set in a timeline where things went REALLY well for Britain for the most part. The Romans get booted out of Britain, Queen Elizabeth I has male heirs, the American Revolution fails, and the Holy...

Not only that, but in the little mini-cave where you find the Deathclaw parents, there's a stash of 255 mini-nukes for that Fat Man. In that same area of Quarry Junction, there's also a light machine gun and some 5.56 mm ammo. That area of the game is pretty hard early on unless you can sneak...

I've been using a holorifle-based build for the longest time and been thinking of switching things up to keep the game interesting. The big thing is whether I want to go back to a guns build or stick with energy weapons. I don't bother with explosives other than the odd grenade and laying down...

Hmm...yes...not bad at all. The cowpoke build: I think you mean "1st Recon beret". They don't use helmets like the regular NCR troopers. Heavyweight sniper: I'd go with Bozar instead of a regular light machine gun. If you're playing a sniper build, you'll want a scope. Bozar has just that...

But then the rest of the Mojave doesn't have electricity. And let's not forget all that sweet electricity that both HELIOS and Hoover Dam can provide for the wasteland. The Followers and Brotherhood would both love that even if for different reasons. And an independent or House-aligned Courier...

There are Nightkin who find new purposes in life. Lily used to be a spy and assassin in the Master's army. By the time of FNV's story, she's a Bighorner herder living in Jacobstown. Dog/God arguably saw his share of time and combat working for the Master, too, prior to falling in with Elijah...

I've gone with South Park names (PC Principal, Princess Kenny), names culled from anime and video games, and even a few historical ones (as a foil to Caesar and Ulysses). Wish there was a bigger character limit like in Oblivion, though, because I tried using "Two Bears High-Fiving" and it...

@CT Phipps Elijah wasted his time going after ARCHIMEDES and the C-Finder. Shittiest weapon ever. He could at least have kept HELIOS for the solar power, to supplement Hidden Valley's electrical needs. My approach to HELIOS is often this: If doing That Lucky Old Sun before recruiting Arcade, I...

A pilum? I SO want that!

My only experience with Many a True Nerd's videos is part of his series where he did a no-heal playthrough of FNV. I haven't finished watching it, though. As for me, I don't think I could ever do that. You're eventually going to take a few hits down the line no matter how great of a player you...

Who said you only needed one knife, and who said you had to stab anybody? You could always throw multiple knives.

The Soviets definitely had oil and natural gas. And good luck trying to take over, unless you are the Mongols. The USSR was fucking HUGE. Even the current Russian Federation is gigantic. They're the only country that borders both Norway and North Korea. The Soviets could lose a few towns and...

My tribal genius, Rinoa (not her original name in RP). She was born a Sorrow but had itchy feet just like Follows-Chalk does so she left Zion to become a courier, caravan guard, and interpreter. She fell in with some Followers and a former Brotherhood scribe along her travels, which kindled the...

I hadn't noticed until after watching Oxhorn's YouTube videos on Lonesome Road. Only after that have I looked through a sniper scope and found Ulysses watching my Courier schlep through the Divide. And no, you can't shoot him. Then again, I also have max Speech by this point so I can just talk...

Even if the Resource Wars had fucked up Europe, I could still see Switzerland at least faring relatively well compared to the rest of the "continent". Again, we have to consider geography. Switzerland is a mountainous country and they're CRAZY prepared in case of an invasion, despite being...

Yeah, schizophrenia. And you can even help find a cure for it, which I always do. I trot off to Jacobstown right when I get Rex as a companion. Usually, I've already killed Violetta and taken her brain before doing this. But when I get Rex his new brain, that's when I also recruit Lily and find...

Bear in mind that I've only played New Vegas and none of the other Fallout games. All I have to go on with the rest is the Fallout wiki and YouTube videos. I'd say there was some division in the Master's Unity. IIRC, Marcus tells you about it if you ask him while in Jacobstown. As for the other...

@Rheios One of many proofs that tradition =/= good: Joseph Lister, Ignaz Semmelweis, and their pioneering work on antisepsis. Their work saved many lives, but the medical establishment of the day fucked them both over and cost many more by clinging to tradition. And what tradition, do you ask...

@Rheios Tradition is never a valid reason for any policy, law, or ANYTHING. "We've always done it this way" is never a legitimate argument and never will be. That mentality doesn't deserve to exist. Progress is never to be challenged or opposed, and conservative forces don't deserve a voice in...
