Worst Quest in Fallout

Not even going to go to town with you over FO1 or FO2 as I'm afraid I'd blow up.

Cabot House is SO much worse than the "alien city under the Mojave" crap. In fact that's probably the least offensive thing about the whole quest. Clearly you must not have seen it in its entirety. Not only are the entire Cabot line related to aliens, but they're also all from the 1800s. They're all immortal and cannot age thanks to Lorenzo's blood. Lorenzo Cabot, the family head, found an alien city buried under Arabia and put on an ancient alien artifact. This artifact functions as a hat, gives him psychic powers, the ability to levitate, the ability to use telekinesis, and gives his normal flesh the same armor durability as X-01 Power Armor. I'm not fucking kidding. It also lets him communicate with the aliens who made the headwear.

On top of that nonsense, if you side with Lorenzo Cabot you get some of this special blood yourself, as often as you want. Not only does it make you unable to die of old age and keeps you youthful forever, but it also makes you IMMUNE to radiation and gives you +50 DT just by taking it. THAT'S why the quest is fucking nonsense, that shit is literally Jesus Juice that you can get from some crazy old man whose literally magical. Fuck, his floating animation is the same as the Dragon Priests from Skyrim.

EDIT: Forgot to add as well, their fucking house (the one the quest is named after) has been standing there since the 1800s. In Pristine Condition. The war didn't touch it at all. It's not even damaged on the outside despite all the buildings surrounding it being toppled to shit and its outside being made of wood. Yeah, that makes perfect sense.

It sounds more like it's trying to be comedic and not serious but I haven't seen that quest.

Don't forget that Emogene Cabot knew Mr. House and also knew that the Great War was going to happen. Fuck ME! :evil:

Wait wait, she knew Mr. House? I didn't hear that little piece of lorebreaking- I mean interesting dialogue. When does THAT occur? I didn't side with Jack Cabot, I sided with Lorenzo and let him slaughter those useless fuckers.
 
Well I'd say Fallout 4 but I have to pick out a specific quest so....

Kid in A Fridge, I didn't really fool around with Cabot house but the word aliens alone makes me want to--do something a pissed off person would normally do.
Now as for Kid in A Fridge, I had to listen to some whining little turd who happens to live inside a fridge for over 200 YEARS with just A PUDDING!!! No food besides that, no light, cramped in a space forced into a sitting position, no water, and no entertainment whatsoever!! Why hasn't the bastard gone insane or drop dead?
Just establishes ghouls as zombies with the ability to live forever.

Then we have this ignorant monkey:

To be fair I have repressed a lot of memories I've had with Fallout 4 to the point where I am trying to actively find ways to give myself amnesia which would rid me of any memories of this game. I do not like reading about and re-jogging my memories of this wreck.

I found the reference to Mr. House, it's in Emogenes terminal apparently.
I think I figured out why Fallout 4's so shitty, this was all an elabourate assassination attempt aimed at me, they've been trying to give me a fatal aneurysm, that's the only possible explanation for all the stupid shit they've heaped up for this game.

Not just you but all the remaining players that have half a brain, because then only the stupid and dumb players remain and no one will say the truth bad things about Bethesda's games anymore :lmao:
 
RangerBoo said:
Good find. Does anybody else get the vibe that Bethesda is trying to actively retcon and ruin New Vegas just out of sheer spite towards Obsidian and old school Fallout fans with the abortion known as Cabot House?

Good to see that I am not the only one, who thinks like that.

Robert house mentioned and alien city under New Vegas, it seems like they hate Obsidian for being better.

There is also the fact that Betheshit refused a bonus to Obsidian for one measly point. They had 84/100 on metacritic and were denied a bonus because of that. An irony Farcryout 4 got the same score.

So yeah, fuck Bethesda.
 
Izak said:
Complete bullshit that they got the same score in the first place seeing as how practically all reviewers have come out and said New Vegas was better; fucking ass kissing game journalists trying to sell ad-space, tell the truth you assholes that's literally your job.

Telling the truth won't pay for their new coffee maker. The only difference between a "gaming journalist" and a prostitute is that the prostitute is at lest honest about being a whore.

Music to my ears.

Because Fallout 3 and 4 don't count ummmm...I guess a lot of the quests in Honest Hearts weren't great. I love the location, the story, the backstory and the characters (although I would have liked to have met more White Leg and New Canaanite characters) and the weapons you get are cool, but the quests all boil down to: "go to place, get thing, come back, go to place, kill thing, come back". It's frustrating that the Dead Horses "quest" is to rescue a Bighorner calf. Sigh.

I do find Follows-Chalk kind of adorable though so all is forgiven.

I agree, Honest Hearts had too many fetch quests to be 'fun', but it sure had great writing overall.

And let's be honest here (sorry, that wasn't intentional lol), it also has one of the best stories in the whole game in the Survivalist. Amazing how someone who died decades ago has a more thoroughly riveting story than anything in Fallout 3 or 4 with actual living people. Or what Beth thinks living people are like.
