This is the best Fallout sequel in years and everybody has heard me raving so I won't here at this time. I will inform you that I am playing Atom RPG on the Iron Man Mode; they call it Survival mode but it is just Iron Man mode. I will end up dying before the end but this will show you some of the game. I am using the Neutron mod which makes minor changes but you will be seeing essentially the same game just with visible skill checks and minor perk changes. Enjoy!



Whoever Gravy is he is a bro.

This is my fifth run. All the other runs I picked some cute looking chick so I picked this bad looking bitch this time. I am not sure how authentic that name is but I pulled it out of my ass. Child Prodigy really helps with this build where I dump Personality and Luck for the most part.

20220917223322_1.jpg

Lucky One is one I have not tried yet but I have found myself wanting to occasionally gamble. This will be a mistake mark my words (due to the -10 in all skills) but then again maybe I will be lucky?

20220917223423_1.jpg


I buffed what I felt would matter in this build. I will start using a knife and winning every speech, barter, and gambling check I can.

20220917223430_1.jpg

I used the kickstarter code for the starting gear and the unique dialog. Survival of course not gonna show the pic where the button is on it for space limitations.

20220917223441_1.jpg


Here is a loading screen. Now we begin!

20220917223459_1.jpg


THAT STAR IS FOR SURE GONNA HIT!!!!

20220917223506_1.jpg


At least I hope that was saliva.

20220917223530_1.jpg

Let us skip past all of this tutorial shit and go to the briefing.



That seems like a decent mission brief fit for a Solid Snake.

20220917223712_1.jpg


Now we burn our Mission Impossible briefing and...

20220917223728_1.jpg

20220917223741_1.jpg

Immediately get approached by bandits.

20220917223753_1.jpg

20220917223757_1.jpg

If you play as a guy he calls you a guy instead. Reactive dialog! j/k

20220917223803_1.jpg


How rude!

20220917223808_1.jpg



I wonder how far he is gonna carry this Red Riding Hood thing?

20220917223816_1.jpg

I decide to use my mouth for something a little different than they have in mind.

20220917223820_1.jpg


No. Not like that.

20220917223823_1.jpg

Oh dear. Turns out you cannot win this encounter it is showing you how Atom RPG likes to stick it in your ass occasionally. Save often (if you can) or get used to it.

20220917223826_1.jpg


upload_2022-9-17_23-4-45.jpeg


20220917223839_1.jpg

At least my holes were left alone. So unrealistic.

20220917223843_1.jpg

They left my canteen but it smells vaguely of urine.

20220917223852_1.jpg

Thankfully Atom taught me how to be the best. I stuffed the mask, the dog tags, and the knife all in a place those fags would never look! A good girl never tells.

20220917223908_1.jpg

Nearby I loot a log...

20220917223916_1.jpg

Something to help with my heroin addiction.

20220917223924_1.jpg

And I managed to unlock this crate with my shitty low lockpicking skill. The crate has some electrical tape which is handy for crafting. The wasteland may never know. I begin to head for the green marker telling me I am leaving the area.

20220917223940_1.jpg

These first person views every now and again are great and a good fuck you to Bethesda.

20220917223952_1.jpg

The town of Otradnoye.

20220917224006_1.jpg

Olga walks to town with hunger pains beginning to rumble in her belly. Due to upload limitations this LP ends right where I wanted it to. Check back next time for more exciting action, less introductory sequences!

Olga has her trusty Leningrad knife at the ready. You never know what is around the corner of the post apocalyptic...

Пустка.

Ahead is a guard. Olga puts on her best smile.

8c7787ad5a21c422599909824f266021.png



20220921162405_1.jpg


20220921162415_1.jpg

Olga is relieved that the guard is not a prick. Most gate guards are so bored it hurts.

20220921162419_1.jpg

This guy does not need to know everything about the mission. Just the basics.

olga.png
Comrade I am looking for some soldiers from my unit...mercs.

20220921162435_1.jpg


olga.png
Thank you comrade. Live long and Prosper.

Before he has a chance to ask what that means Olga is exploring the village.

20220921162453_1.jpg

It sounds like a TV is on so the village is not wanting for power. Now is the best time to loot since the village is mostly asleep. I will not show every single item I loot or the update would end with nothing but garbage.

20220921162522_1.jpg

Most items will be of this quality.

Using my Meta Knowledge granted by REDACTED I realize there is some old dude here that wants his corn picked so I do it before he even asks. REDACTED has many advantages.

20220921162543_1.jpg

I heard you like to dig so I found a shovel so you can dig holes while you shovel.





20220921162619_1.jpg

I steal the last roll of toilet paper from the outhouse and fix the generator. It all evens out.

20220921162721_1.jpg

You might think "HEY THIS SHOVEL IS NOT INTERACTABLE. BULLSHIT."

depositphotos_43552349-stock-photo-shovel-for-scooping-cow-dung.jpg


Keep in mind that shovel would be a fucking bitch to dig with especially in some of this terrain.

20220921162741_1.jpg

Make sure you pick this lock since it has some decent loot

20220921162748_1.jpg


Might not seem like it but nails are pretty handy for crafting armor.

Now the old man...

20220921162809_1.jpg


20220921162819_1.jpg


olga.png
I did that already old man. I used my sixth sense to figure it out before you even told me.

20220921162823_1.jpg


20220921162828_1.jpg

Typical. Not on my watch. I pick number 2 because I know that option works and cannot risk failure.

20220921162838_1.jpg

For this we get a homemade rifle that will sell for 100 plus rubles at the very least.

20220921162854_1.jpg

I exhaust the dialog and use my Speech to win some survival points. Keep in mind you will not be able to see the check without Neutron mod.

20220921162902_1.jpg

You get prompts like this a lot when you win a check that will give you some skill points.

20220921162909_1.jpg

I know a guy that just bought a furnace for such a thing. A little bigger than a tin can though.

20220921162915_1.jpg

Olga waves bye to the old codger and continues with the META...the bar is next. First Olga looted the rest of the houses...wastepaper, salt, weed, silverware, nothing worth posting.

20220921164342_1.jpg

The local bar is probably the most boring bar in the history of bar stuff. There is a funny guy here that really likes LOTR though.

20220921164348_1.jpg


Oh I see where this is going...

20220921164355_1.jpg

This bartender knows less than the gate guard...

olga.png
Shit.

20220921164358_1.jpg

olga.png
I will do that.

But the bartender appears to want something else...

20220921164444_1.jpg

olga.png
What kind of book is it?


wqpYdhc.jpg


olga.png
Lord of the Rings huh? I used to know a girl that loved that series...


mca4H4Y.jpg


Now on to the sister.

lZmmWJl.jpg


The personality check lets you skip a minor event where you get drugged and pass out in the next day.

n2gbtZv.jpg


Yeah I am so hot even this chick notices me I guess.

NngNuQi.jpg


She wants me to go shroom hunting for her. This will take me through toxic shrooms so I will put on my...

0U3jLqG.jpg


Chosen One Stalker mask.

foWAsGk.jpg


I will be killing all the animals, then finding a fisherman to learn gutting from, but first the shrooms...fisherman is not out at night.

jvMjMlJ.jpg


I missed this quest last run. I need to do some kind of ritual...

QDeNtE6.jpg


A Shelob attacks. I use aim since there is no reason not to.

EXnTv4n.jpg


FATALITY. I run around and kill a few more before finding the first shroom.

UBfRZr9.jpg

1dzgp4H.jpg


And then I get ready to raid the toxic area...

DZFIJWF.jpg


Antidote can come in handy for such things.

rNgJQ8T.jpg


I find one of those caches off Breaking Bad.

KP3qoZA.jpg


Mmmmmm candy.

qhlwtoD.jpg


This big rock appears to be hiding something.

nAc6phA.jpg


Shovel just breaks so use them muscles!

02PkqRe.jpg


This shield is part of a quest to find the pieces.

ktz9bKH.jpg

PdkjuDs.jpg


I'm sure none of that was relevant.

This abandoned house nearby is tied to two quests. One is rescuing a guy from Dan, the other is finding a sword for the Nutcracker.

VWRPqsa.jpg


One locker is locked. 20 lockpick handled it fine.

878jxDf.jpg


This is downstairs under the bed but there is not much to do here at this time.

You can plant corn at plots like this.

aiSWFj0.jpg


I ran around and finished killing all the mobs on this map.

6l6WQLz.jpg


OLQljgv.jpg


Almost done now.

ymVA9uH.jpg


This hobo does not mind me taking his canned food and toilet paper.

GBxerXf.jpg


I also loot this scrap pile for scrap and wood.

ODTuasZ.jpg


By the time I make it back to return the quest I have leveled up. Well the herbal mix has kicked in so I am off. Tune in next time for ATOM ARRRRPEEEGEEEEEEE.

Thank you for the LP. This game looks really good, and judging by your infatuation with it, it is really good. It's giving me nostalgia, and sparking my creative bone. Please continue. Also, can you pepper in some tips or explain what skills and distinctions are useful and what aren't? As they come up in the LP, of course.
 
Yes I will sister. Keep in mind Atom is much better balanced than Fallout so you have a little more freedom.
 
Balanced, you say? What a story! So you haven't come across any useless or broken skills?
 
Gambling is the most useless along with martial arts. Melee is better in regards to the latter. Oh and lockpicking can be mostly ignored (buff it a little later) due to no super high checks to speak of.
 
I always have the urge to make lockpicking a main skill in games because GIMME THE LOOT GIMME THE LOOT.
 
I actually got into that game on Trudograd a bit when I did the grandmaster quest. Still no Triple Triad.

I suppose it's everyone to their own liking. I never bothered that much, or with caravan in NV. My lad loved Caravan?!
He thought I was nuts doing the hacking in FO3 with Pen and paper. I thought he was a twat for playing it like an FPS.
Don't overstretch yourself trying to do too much, otherwise those foreskin demons will av you off
 
The foreskin demons in this game breath fire so I mostly save scummed to avoid them on a normal run. If I do make it that far I will likely die there.
 
Sshh I meant in your special mission into the future past. You were to collect data ! I sent Seraphims and drones to help.
If Mossad spot this they will see it all as a plot by Hummous and fuck it all up.
 
Indeed. I have much to do men. Tonight I am sacrificing cardboard in a burn barrel to ward off the foreskin...I have said too much.
 
Last time we did some boring starting quest and right before we turned it in I ran out of energy. This time we might even get out of town!

20220921165643_1.jpg


I don't like her face. There is something about it.

20220921165649_1.jpg

I use my expert level speechcraft to get some more munny I mean rupees I mean rubles.

20220921165653_1.jpg


Then she gives me the recommendation I need to move on up in the world and talk to the next quest giver. On this next guy there are two branching paths one of which I never take because I am a huge asshole.

20220921165703_1.jpg

First thing first. See that bookcase? Go over and read the book there but do not pick it up. It will give you Streetwise.

20220921165712_1.jpg

Handy terms for a blatnoy like myself.

20220921165724_1.jpg

I equip my handy Kickstarter dog tags that will help win a speechcheck with old fuck.

20220921165742_1.jpg

Speaking of which...

20220921165819_1.jpg

Speech at 65 is more than enough for now. All that red might look scary but those stat buffs up top are worth it.

olga.png
Comrade the lady at the tavern sent me here for work...

20220921165829_1.jpg


20220921165835_1.jpg


This man appears to be a little...old as fuck and barely capable of leading this settlement. More to come on that if I get that far.

20220921165838_1.jpg

Attention check passed. Something is up with him and the tavern whore...that never puts out for some reason on any of my runs. Cock tease.

20220921165853_1.jpg

A rat you say? This calls for some Meta knowledge that saves me from asking around town due to knowing who it is already!

20220921165919_1.jpg

He informs me the bar whore is for sure not it because he trusts her and the dumb bartender for some reason. No more questions here. I KNOW WHAT TO DO.

20220921165938_1.jpg

This guy here wants you to fix the generator for the water, but I did that already due to having the Knowledge of Prosper.

20220921165942_1.jpg
20220921165949_1.jpg


You better believe I ask for more rubles.

20220921165950_1.jpg

This guy is not the bandit though. He is just some old pussy.

20220921165955_1.jpg


This guy though...he seems shifty.

20220921165958_1.jpg


He has dice you can buy off him but you cannot play dice in town (likely because a super high gambling skill would let you meta game some bucks) however there is that old bum that was near the shrooms that you can play with if you like.

20220921170013_1.jpg

This is your clue that this guy is a little rough around the edges...I drop the bombshell that I am looking for a rat.

20220921170017_1.jpg


Joining the bandits might seem like a total dick move but I wager without them protecting this village it will just die.

olga.png
Look I know it is you and I am gonna go tell the boss man right fucking now unless you fess up...

20220921170028_1.jpg


olga.png
How much for my silence?

20220921170029_1.jpg


olga.png
Nice doing business with you comrade. Tell the bandits I will be there soon. *he marks the place on your map* Now get the fuck outta here.

20220921170033_1.jpg

Now if you chose the other path you would need to kill this guy and on Iron Man well...*lip smacks* it ain't worth it. I go tell old fuck the guy ran off...

20220921170100_1.jpg

He starts talking about the bar whore before can even turn in the quest.

20220921170103_1.jpg

I will fast forward the next 12 pics and say that he is the father of bar whore, he did not want me to

tell her, but I did, they hug and cry and are happy. The end.

20220921170142_1.jpg

He finally listens about the rat. I tell him he left. He does not really care due to being some old useless fuck. Time to move on.
20220921170407_1.jpg
This is what you get for that speech check. But we are not done here entirely. There is a fisherman that wants some booze and will teach me how to gut animals and all that mess. That being said I still have a number of pics left in this town so it will be next update before we get outta here. Thanks for watching!
 
Excellent, like a graphic novel. Did you find the stash in Otradoyne. Kill the sneak then find button to get into basement

Yeah I did but I am gonna wait until the guy tells me about it to totally go through due to the safe key. I will free him from Dan. Never found nutcracker sword last run.
 
BACK TO THE WORLD OF ATOM

Last time we saw a family reunion that made our blonde bombshell a little nervous so she started watching TV.
20220921170250_1.jpg

Nothing but propaganda as usual.
20220921170516_1.jpg

We decide to rest. You go get some kind of adrenaline buff for sleeping in bed I believe. Next morning we visit the fisherman.
20220921170550_1.jpg

He is not very trusting.
20220921170554_1.jpg

Kinda a dickhead to be honest.

20220921170602_1.jpg

I flash my tits to get what I want.

78330926_006_57d1.jpg

20220921170600_1.jpg

That is what I thought.

20220921170607_1.jpg

Fair enough. I will skip through this boring conversation and let you know he wants vodka but I already bought it from the store because I know he wants it. Now he can teach me how to do fishing stuff.

20220921170620_1.jpg
20220921170622_1.jpg


Now I can go around and gut all the shit I killed.

20220921170632_1.jpg

Like this. Then you can sell the stuff or craft with some of it or use it for fishing which is what I would do.

20220921170855_1.jpg

Here we go. My META POWER tells me that there is a special fish in here. I do think this mod might make the encounter easier because he just popped up with hardly any luck.

20220921170859_1.jpg


Here we go!

20220921170902_1.jpg

Please understand.

20220921170905_1.jpg

20220921170922_1.jpg

I raise my Endurance so I might live longer.

20220921170950_1.jpg

I catch a few more fish. Now let us go use our female powers on one of the guards since it is a unique dialog tree.

20220921171021_1.jpg
20220921171024_1.jpg


20220921171028_1.jpg

olga.png
I take it you don't see too many pretty girls around these parts?

20220921171040_1.jpg


Wasteland Incels.

20220921171045_1.jpg


Oh boy a flower!

20220921171048_1.jpg


olga.png
Thanks...I'll uhh see ya around man.

She leaves him there with a hard dick. Now for supplies.

20220921171114_1.jpg
20220921171134_1.jpg


He does not have the best equipment but it is enough to get you started. Mainly crafting. We press him on some info and get a speech check.

20220921171149_1.jpg

This will be the third quest in this town (I think) that sends you to Krasnoznamenny. Don't head there too soon though and for sure do not go to that damn Bunker without two mates. Anyway we get a quest to get this guy back in the good graces of the head honchos around here.

20220921171208_1.jpg


olga.png
Whatever you say comrade now about that discount.

20220921171222_1.jpg


Barely passed that one.

20220921171234_1.jpg

You want that hare fur due to it making thorny armor.

20220921171241_1.jpg

I sell the rifle the old hunter gave me since I cannot use it and have no bullets for it.

53KXdLY.jpg

This is what we end up with. The update ends here since NMA only allows so many and IMGUR just broke half of mine - will do it later.
