    Do you think it's perfectly okay to dismiss Fallout 3...

    Now you're just messing with me. And arguably The Pitt DLC had a better story than all of FO3.

    Will... not... fight... PC vs Console battle...

    Wolfhorn ranch and Ulysses

    Kinda sounds like a guy who you're supposed to be able to mold to agree politically with whatever faction you align with over the course of the game, thereby providing some weight behind your (rather capricious) decisions. It'd take a lotta writing, tho: Four endings plus three karmic zones...

    Is Charisma needed?

    I dunno. Swapping outta clothing sets always felt odd to me. You don't really expect the lone cowboy right off the plains to change before entering the Last Call Saloon, do you? Maybe that nebbish wordsmith who fell out the stagecoach with fourteen crates might care how he dresses, but I can't...

    Is Charisma needed?

    This, this; a thousand times this. Not to say that FONV has been good in depicting it. I mean, there really are quite few instances where one's CHA stat is important, where physical appearance and sheer animal magnetism (and not just Animal Friend) matter and should make a difference, because...

    Do you think it's perfectly okay to dismiss Fallout 3...

    This. FONV should be FO3 and FO3 should be FOCW.

    Anyone else hate/hold a grudge against ceartain factions?

    Believe me, keep Boone around and he'll do this kinda stuff for you.

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    There's plenty of direct references. The most notable one for me was the Sand Creek Massacre vis a vis Bitter Springs.

    Do you think it's perfectly okay to dismiss Fallout 3...

    In short, forget FO3 and go straight to FONV.

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    I fail to see how the first paragraph contradicts what I said. I think you're disagreeing with me for the sake of disagreeing.

    Legion/BoS war (Expect spoilers)

    Immortals were called that not because they're more resilient than normal soldiers, but because they're more capable of replacing their numbers.

    Factions on the side

    And I hope you understand that the average citizen's education is less than stellar, and people tend initially to reject concepts that don't fit with their worldview. In other words, it's not that they know what the government is doing and are simply choosing not to think about it, but that...

    Non Combat Resolution Prevalence?

    Aside from near the quarry, the roads themselves have relatively few critters. Doing a clockwise circuit from Goodsprings to New Vegas, the only encounters you're guaranteed to hit are the raiders between Mojave Outpost and Nipton and the raiders between Nipton and Ranger Station Charlie, and...

    Characters, the good and bad.

    Arguably speaking, I think the Kings have it better than the gamblers in Vegas. I mean, sure, they're in the down-and-outs, but they're also setting up a society with connections to the outside world and are looking after the less fortunate of their citizens. I posit that, because of this...

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    Genghis Khan would send envoys to towns asking that they surrender. The first one that didn't, he slaughtered every man, woman and child. The second one that didn't, he pointed to the first one. Suddenly they were more amenable. Genghis Khan had the largest contiguous empire the world has...

    Neutral Path?

    Have you never met a guy that just looked creepy? Furtive? Suspicious?

    My issues with New Vegas

    In order: - Remember the clean, civilized Vault City? - It's in the west! - Because the "Danger Will Robinson!" robots weren't comic-looking? Fallout is meant to reflect 50s pulp sci fi SCIENCE! - Super-mutants aren't a scary mighty force because they're not a scary mighty force! You fixed...

    The USSR-Afghan War: random claims

    Snrk. Yeah, arms races don't cost money. We're not being choked by our defense budget.

    Neutral Path?

    That is most likely the case.
