I've been working on a plot to do a technical pacifist run (convincing other people to kill my enemies, detonating any conveniently placed bombs, turning turrets on them etc is OK), so far I've only identified a handful of quests that I can't talk or sneak my way out of of, usually because the...

New Canaan.

The point he was trying to make is that its unlikely that the entirety of the population is slaves, what you see on the front lines does not represent the whole. Given that Caesar seems to be interested in a fairly accurate reconstruction of the Roman empire, this seems likely. Doesn't help...

[spoiler:7e3f19884d]You get locked out of at least 1 faction *well* before the destroy the brotherhood quest. You can also install Yes Man in the 38 and still pursue NCR and Legion factions, you have to both install him and complete Side Bets (or maybe just complete Side Bets). You'll get a...

[spoiler:9980d74223]There is no option for a truce on the House questline that I can find, you can't bring it up with the elder at least[/spoiler:9980d74223]

There's not really anything new from Wild Wasteland that I can see, more that things get changed, IE, a cave full of giant rats has 'Rodents of Unusual Size' instead. It makes it feel more like fallout 2 to me (which was always overloaded with references like these), but its not something I'd...

"Ssh, we're hunting shitheads"

How did you get him to wear the guitar and sword at the same time?

There should at the very least be an option to ask and be told why you can't join. Though in the Legion's case I have a suspicion that Caesar intends to make me a slave later.

I've had this too, only I don't even have to wear the armor anymore, just putting it on once (with nobody seeing me) was enough to make everyone go berserk on me.

Caesar has Lanius explicitly to handle things like this. [spoiler:5a4efb1a2b]I'm more wondering why General Oliver shows up to commit suicide-by-Securitron instead of a lower ranking officer.[/spoiler:5a4efb1a2b]

A guns score that's too low for the weapon reduced the rate of fire, and damage goes up with a high guns skill for some reason.

3 AP ammo is easy enough to get late game. There are a few enemies that are low DT but otherwise very hard (like cazadors) for who burst weapons are great. You can also get a perk that gives you AP on shotgun rounds. 8 Vats is useless outside of very close range, even with sniper rifles and...

I thought the water requirements were too low for the Mojave. (keep in mind you need about 8 or 9 purified waters to make up 1 gallon).

Energy weapons lack iron sights. I had to give up on making an energy weapon based character because of this, I go through ammo *way* too fast to actually use the things given how often I miss with them. Hardcore mode makes this even worse since energy ammo is much heavier than bullets...
