Need help spreading the good word....

First time out of the vault
I have a friend that usually likes CRPG's, so I bought him a copy of FO1 when I bought my own. The damn slacker wont play it though.

We usually have the same taste in RPG's, but for some reason he stopped playing after completing the Shady Sands quests. I hassle him about it now and then, but he's always like "I haven't really gotten 'round to it yet".

How can I make him play it? I know he'll love the game when he really gets into it, but I need a way to trick him into doing so.

Any suggestions? (Bear in mind that kidnapping/violence is out of the question) (For now, at least).
 
Junktown. Have him wear a leather jacket and meet Dogmeat, plus the first Killian event. That may draw him in further, especially the animated head with Richard Dean Anderson's voice. The option to be good or evil there seemed to be a pivotal point for many people.

If you really want to pique someone's interest, though it is a shallow method, you can show him some meaty death scenes as you take a chunk out of someone's side. :)
 
Yeah, Junktown is pretty much the most decision building place in the game. The next one, in my opinion, is the Glow, then the Cathedral (especially because of the incredibly haunting background music there).
 
What the others said. Junktown and Killian Darkwater did it for me as well.

Or - if he's that kind of a player - just tell him that Fallout offers him a chance to do hookers, use drugs and shoot people in the crotch.

Or simply dump your friend. Slackers are no good anyway. And kick him in the crotch before you leave him in the gutter. That'll teach him. :twisted:
 
Or-drop him of in Shady Sands with power armour and minigun, pluss 200 on big guns


PS: If none of these things will poke his interest, then it's not hope :wink:

:twisted: so im not the only one who was done this?
 
I would start him off at the beginning of Vault 15. I loved the look of the destroyed Vault and all the creepy critters moving around in such dark environs.

Sincerely,
The Vault Dweller
 
Give him Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel. That will grant him a perfect insight into everything that makes a Fallout game great and surely spark his interest in the world and setting.
