  1. The Man From Nowhere

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    Well you can kill Burke who's just sitting on a chair or numerous others with Evil Karma and you gain karma for shooting them in public and it's considered a good thing. Colonel Autumn is another one of those "special" characters besides the Overseer who you can spare and consider the importance...
  2. The Man From Nowhere

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    My problem with the Vault escape is that it's selective in morality. The Overseer openly called for your death and execution, and you have no choice but to kill guards when encountered or be beaten and killed. So you go through about half a dozen guards who were just following orders before...
  3. The Man From Nowhere

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    I thought that was one of the best speech options of all. I don't think it makes Lanius any less of a hardened warrior nor took away from his "badass" character. He wouldn't have been spooked off by robots or intimated by your sheer power like Oliver Lee clearly was, instead you argue on his...

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    You can convince Lanius to stand down by arguing what happened to Rome will repeat itself; they won't be able to hold all of the East and he listened to that. It actually put me to mind of the Master and explaining why the path they're going on won't work in-depth. It's much more engaging and...
  5. The Man From Nowhere

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    Relatively powerful, morally inspired, a sense of honor and higher purpose, and with some of the greatest minds the series has to offer, at the cost of being brutally ruled with an iron fist. That would have truly given the NCR and Mr. House a run for their money and made alot more people at...

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    Caesar's Legion would've been a way better and interesting faction had Obsidian just deleted the whole "misogynistic slavers" part. - Anyone notice how current or former Legion members are way more intelligent, insightful, and philosophical than NCR folk? Joshua Graham, Ulysses, Lanius, and...
  7. The Man From Nowhere

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    The one thing I really didn't like about Honest Hearts was that it was selective with its morality. Your character kills a load of White Legs, but apparently letting Joshua kill their general point blank (after he already executed two others standing right next to him point blank) is such a...
  8. The Man From Nowhere

    Most psychopathic character in New Vegas?

    The Van Graffs and Crimson Caravan are just weapon retailers within the Republic. Cassandra Moore is the most likely psychopath within the NCR. Which is honestly one of the best things about the NCR's portrayal as a faction because as a high ranking official she throws a wrench in the...
  9. The Man From Nowhere

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    Honest Hearts is actually my second favorite New Vegas DLC (behind Dead Money). Dead Money > Honest Hearts > Lonesome Road > Old World Blues There could have been more to do overall though the Scenic location to explore with tribal politics was pretty engaging. Wandering the landscape of Zion...
  10. The Man From Nowhere

    Unpopular Fallout Opinions

    Old World Blues is the most over hyped DLC for New Vegas as I always find it ranked number 1. This is coming from someone who loved Dead Money, Lonesome Road, and even Honest Hearts. Each of the scientists was trying too hard and over the top to be wacky and quirky but just came off as annoying...
  11. The Man From Nowhere

    Most psychopathic character in New Vegas?

    Gloria Van Graff and her brother Jean-Baptiste are obviously psychopaths. Most psychopaths aren't really obviously outwardly crazy or cartoonishly evil - in fact they are more often secretly cut throat, cunning, and charming people. They just don't feel emotions or empathy like the vast...

    Why Robert Edwin House is the best hope for the wasteland and humanity

    Making peace between The Kings and NCR makes Mr. House exterminate The Kings after the battle of Hoover Dam. Inciting a war makes Mr. House look upon The Kings favorably and lets them stay. The only thing I can do for the good ending for The Kings is deliberately withhold evidence from Pacers...

    Gaping plot holes in New Vegas

    How does The Courier go through Vault 22 without having any ill effects whatsoever? The logs from Keely suggest that the spores from the lichen-covered scientists in the vault are not contagious to ghouls, but that's it.
  14. The Man From Nowhere

    Why Robert Edwin House is the best hope for the wasteland and humanity

    So is there any way to resolve the G.I. Blues quests peacefully so the Kings aren't exterminated in Mr. House's ending (which is exactly what happens if you resolve the King and NCR conflict peacefully), and where I'm also not forced to gun down half a dozen NCR troopers in the shootout with...

    Minor factions are what make or breaks role-playing experience in any franchise, and here's why

    In Fallout 4 you can join three separate major factions. That seems like it's a big deal on the surface when they say "you can decide between these major players", but it's really not. The reason New Vegas can be played over and over a dozen times is because you can decide to be with the NCR...

    Minor factions are what make or breaks role-playing experience in any franchise, and here's why

    I don't often see this brought up but there is something crucial to role-playing which is blatantly missing from Fallout 3 & 4, and I consider it the reason they come off as generic and shallow in terms of role-playing to so many people. So I created this thread to incite discussion on it...

    Gaping plot holes in New Vegas

    Not sure if this is a plot hole exactly, but I've thought it was extremely strange the Casinos on the Strip allow you to exchange Legion currency for poker chips. For one thing it's already tough enough to get onto the strip to the point Vulpes went undercover to even enter. So brazenly...

    What Fallout New Vegas was supposed to be

    I remember a short conversation that struck me as odd with Joana in Bye Bye Love. After telling me she was going to take Carlitos out of New Vegas, I struck up an interaction and she had this to say as they were leaving the strip "This is where we've been staying" or something along those lines...

    Fallout 76

    West Virginia is the Oasis of the United States. Yet it's the least populated of them all and no interest is shown or displayed for over 200 years. As in there are literally no humans except for Vault residents who come outside to explore.
  20. The Man From Nowhere

    Fallout 76

    You see - I can even go along with the idea that perhaps nothing in West Virginia was even worth nuking and left mostly in-tact. But that's the exact reason it should also be thriving and full of humans. Refugees from the surround states should be pouring in.
