It was a nice decoy. But after a few hours, I built a doghouse at Red Rocket and told him to just stay there due to getting annoyed by his stupid AI.

You know, what could be really funny? If someone made an alternate-start mod, where everything that happens in Fallout 4, including that happy-happy-joy-joy-family-life, is actually explained as a dream the player had during his time in the Cryo Sleep.

Kept you waiting huh?
Apparently people play Fallout 4 for its story and characters. This picture someone posted from the Codex is something I just had to post over here, this is hilarious if they're really playing this for the characters and story.

Harsh, but sadly true.

So, so true....

Hahaha, the first one in the video above where he just jumps off the roof, I literally spat my monitor. Too funny.
On the subject of Dogmeat I think it's lazy unimaginative writing by Bethesda, not that I'm surprised by that.
Had I been making Fallout 4 I would have tried to come up with a new iconic companion instead of basically rehashing an old one, maybe a pet fire lizard or something along those lines instead. And you shouldn't get him so easily, he should be in a cave which you've been told to clean free of critters or something along those lines. But instead of attacking you he's friendly towards you, you can kill him and screw it up.... but if you don't kill him and feed him he'll become your companion. Something along those lines. Doesn't have to be exactly like that, it's just an example. But I would have liked to see something new.

Kill him and screw it up? What do you think this is, OBSIDIAN? Please, Go... Todd wants to see you sir. Yes, right now.

I'm sure he would. And if I was making Fallout 4 I would actually go and see him. I would listen intensely, take notes even. And then I would do the exact opposite.
Another father/son chase you say.... sure Todd. Dogmeat you say? Again? Why not Todd. Liberty Prime? Again? Great idea Todd.... Power Armor and a minigun within the first hour? please keep going...
It *WOULD* make a pretty effective list of things not to do.

That would've been even better if they put in one of those quotes from a Todd Howard talking about the revolutionary AI or whatever he was saying. I recall him talking about that on Oblivion.

Because it was much easier to waste time recording 1000 names for that stupid robot than doing something remotely sensible and let us name the Dog we find on the side of the street.

He is boring, he is useless, his ability is bugged out to shit, he is immortal, you are forced to recruit him and he is shoehorned into the plot. He is a microcosm of everything wrong with FO4.
The best is that even if you never meet and recruit him, he'll still appear during the main quest. "Your Dogmeat there can probably help." -"HOLY FUCKING SHIT WHO IS THAT DOG HOW DID IT GET IN HERE"
Dogmeat is obviously a psyker.
He also doesn't know his own physiology, so he's immortal.

Why would there be a pure breed german shepard 200 years after the war? Who is breeding them? Shouldn't dogmeat be a mixed race dog instead? They could've even created their own Dog breed to make him unique... But they didn't, they just took the most popular Dogmeat reskin mod from the Nexus and pasted it in.
If I ever get the game, the first thing I will do is turning him into a Deathclaw. I am pretty sure there will be mods for that.
Though, I don't get it why that pooch made people cheer so much, literaly on every conference, video, or where ever Todd started to talk and show the Dog the masses started to become almost hysterical.
