What Fallout drug would you like to try in real life?

+ Jet
+ Mentats
+ Med-X
+ Buffout
or;
+ Psycho

For me it might be Med-X, because it is supposed to stimulate the opioid receptors.
 
So ... you assume we're already so bored and fucked up by existing drugs that we may have the undying wish to try a video game drug? I think that's very offensive.
 
lol I didn't assume anything. It was just a question, you were the one that decided to go into this great deep meaning with it.
 
Med-X is just a made up name for morphine, by the way. So if you want to try the "Fallout drug", just use morphine.
 
I think we should define what these fictional drugs are based on.

Jet- Smoking Crack on LSD.
Mentats- Adderall
Med-X- Heroin
Buffout- Steroids
Psycho- PCP

To answer your question. Are we talking about Fallout 1 and 2 or Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

I can pay a doctor to cure withdrawal and addiction?

or

Would I have to fight through the addiction?
 
Just to try it. With no chance of addiction whatsoever. Like I said, just as an experimentation. And most of you can't tell me you've never experimented with anything in your entire life.

And we are talking about Fallout 1-2. Not that other crap they made up in Fallout 3 and NV.

I guess if it were me, I would want to try Med-X the most. Secondary choices for me would be Jet, Mentats, or Psycho (thats in order).
 
Probably Psycho and Jet. Simultaneously. Which would allow me to destroy a small city and get away with it.
 
Grape Mentats. Tasty, and I'd be able to get a lot of interesting writing done quickly.

It'd give me a good job if everything went all Dune-y, too. As it is... I'm heartbreakingly stupid. I need them drugs.

Med X was introduced in Fallout 3, when they had to change the name for Morphine.
 
mentats and buffout.

Could you imagine the possibility?

I've never experimented with anything in my entire life.

As to Med-X, as has been noted here, it's just morphine. I'd skip it. Anyone who's been hospitalized in the past ten years has probably had better.

Honestly, you know what I think I'd want to try? The monument chunk from Fallout 2, just so I could finally stop being baffled about the logistics of it. (I mean, do you... grind it up and snort it? Use it as a suppository? (I hope) eat it? What're the taste and texture like?) Barring that, I'd probably want to sample a real, actual Nuka-Cola.
 
Taking decades old drugs, or ones made out of expired chemicals and Brahmin poop by people with word of mouth medical knowledge is not something I find attractive or tentative in the least.

Fixed that for ya, cause it was an insult to the progress of humanity, otherwise... =)

Oh my God, that got a fantastic laugh for me. I'd never even thought about that one! My honest answer was always an instant "Mentats, no contest", but the idea of pondering the mechanics of the monument chunk stopped me in my tracks. Very thoughtful (if disturbingly hilarious) questions of specifics... I'd certainly HOPE it wouldn't be taken as a suppository!
 
I think Mentats. They sound like they would be interesting.

@BigBoss, Fallout 3 had a lot of made up BS that they added to the game that was not in accordance with Fallout Lore (note the supermutants for example), but I don't recall FO3 having "made-up crap" in terms of the drugs besides the Med-X. I believe the drugs were the same thing and had the same effect as in the first 2 games, but I haven't played them for a while so I don't remember.

In reference to the Med-X, Bethesda did have to change the name from morphine, lest the game not be released. I heard that they had to remove the quest where you blow up Megaton's bomb in the Japanese version, and the Fat-Man was renamed to nuke launcher or some crap. Seems a little childish and overly-sensitive to me, but whatever. I think they removed the gore from certain European releases of F3 as well, and it's banned in some countries. I'm not sure why they had to change the name of Morphine though. I've played games before where you can use real world drugs, like the Diazepam in the Metal Gear games, so why does it matter for FO3?
