Why did you do it?

Because I though I could become the ruler of New Vegas, not some dumb robot.

i wanted to hook my peepee up to his machine

Boomers deserve to die.

I wanted to do a yes man ending for my first play through.

Because I'm my own man.

Honestly he was just a fuckin dick, Not even trolling. You walk in there right? Not knowing too much about the whole situation except for what shouldve been a pretty much run of the mill delivery ended up getting you shot in the face cause this autistic shitlord couldnt find a better way to conduct his shady dealings. So upon walking in there and demanding answers for his bullshit blowing up in your face and nearly getting you killed he demands the chip back and talks to you like your nothing more than a shit stain on the bottom of his fucking boot, Lets think about this.

But that's why the courier is getting paid big bucks for, there are always warning signs with high payment jobs, it's implied in the game that the courier knew something was fishy because of the large payment.
But how is he entitled for getting what he paid for and compensating the player well for doing it?
It's his own property that he went to a lot of trouble for to get back, of course he's "entitled" to it.
There are people conspiring against him, so of course he's going to use workarounds that are shady, given that all his resources are non operational, not doing so is the same as losing.
The only thing here is that your ego is not being stroked, not that House actually did anything wrong, you are a courier being well compensated for your voluntary risks and have a job to do.

Kino.

>Violence is wrong!
No, he wants the Sorrows to leave because of what becoming violent would do to them, they would lose their innocence in his eyes, when they are one of the few pure/divine things he sees left in the world.
If you want to fault him for something, it's his misplaced repentance, he is imposing on the Sorrows by keeping them innocent for his own sense of salvation.

while i don't think you're wrong, there's a shitload more context to that period of history than simply christians vs da jooce. you really need to look into the creation of mormonism, its influence by jewish mysticism, Bam Shel Tov, the birth of Hassidic judaism and how it influenced evangelical christianity.

i mean, judaism at that point was so far removed from current judaism its why i mentioned Bam Shel Tov, looking at how mornomism played out i am certain that Joseph Smith was influenced by lurianic kabbalah, and lurianic kabblah folding into christianity birthed evangelical christianity and manifest destiny

the lies might be jewish in nature, literally using the same framework of deception, but they don't come from jews, is what i'm saying.

I never get tired of pick pocketing live grenades into people's inventories m8. Never.

He literally made the nukes , he made most of his money in rocket engineering and manufacturing. He's like the dusty ancient wizard of the military industrial complex

This desu, and not only is House a coward and already obsessed with clinging to life but also possesses an enormously inflated view of his own value probably due to being fundamentally disconnected from other human beings at nearly every level, and his model of society based pretty much exclusively on a monopoly on force is probably the least stable and easiest to topple mode of societal organization in human history. All it takes to completely overturn his utopian vision is somebody with a bigger stick to disagree with what he wants.

Honestly I do it for narrative reasons. The game is replete with the idea of being beholden to the past vs letting go of it. To me at least, the ending that matches with that theme the closest is independent with you having allied the third-party factions together. Of the other ones? It's a 'benevolent' dictatorship by a pre-war Corporatist whom if he dies everything is lost and really only cares about Vegas Vegas, a tyrannical warlord of a faction that would only enact mass suffering and entirely relies upon one figurehead to keep it united and if he dies the entire organization will collapse, and the NCR which just repeats like 80% of the bad things about the US and seem to have a chronic disorder to betray and backstab anybody they make an alliance with. Each of the other factions seems obsessed with an idealized past that never was. For the NCR, it is the US yet they repeat the imperialist and warmongering of the US. For the Legion, they are Roman cosplayers. For House, he's literally an embodiement of the past. Now, there's a way to argue that independent is merely the status quo, and I think that's a valid critique but to me at least, getting all the factions to work together does push it past just all these seperated factions into a cohesive whole. Perhaps they will become another republic, perhaps they will become a successful Catalonia, or perhaps they will inevitably be crushed and absorbed by a greater faction.

No. I shot that old fuck like he was just another piece of Wasteland garbage, and I ate his corpse too. You simply could not give control of the future of the state over to an egotistical, megalomaniac like House. I wish the game offered something more socialist or left of the political persuasion, in a nuclear hellhole like that capitalism should be first thing to go extinct; robbing and stealing from people who have absolutely no means to survive. Fuck that.

Just because tyranny is the path of least resistance which most state planners gravitate towards because of their own inherent human desire to amass power does not make tyranny the only viable method of governing human populations. It's simply the most expedient and requires essentially zero moral or ethical effort from those in power.

Yeah no, all of those endings would be better than House. I'd take the Legion over House, at least the Legion would burn the Strip to the ground and enslave or murder every single raider in the area. Plus according to Raul and some of the caravans they're actually pretty nice to people and allow for basic technology in their tributes as long as it isn't pre war medicine like stims, robots, or energy weapons

aint reading all that lmao

NCR has kino uniforms but fuck that kind of (((government))) incompetence

unless you have a monopoly on power then someone else will take over it's simply how it works. even in a utopian society you'd still need a standing army considering geopolitics

Go for it. Just dont try to do a master playthrough because thanks to the horrible engine the game is basically unplayable after you put so many hours onto a save file. I actually couldnt even finish the game last time i tried it because every main quest bugged out and wouldnt let me complete them.

Attached: extreme gazelle hunting.jpg (429x429, 145K)

what do you mean by master playthrough?

When I refer to monopoly on power I refer mostly to power brought to bear against one's own citizens, I'm not saying that every government that raises an army is a tyranny, only governments which specifically set out to create a situation in which they have absolute power over all individual members of their society, turning those people from citizens into serfs or slaves in the most fundamental sense. All tyrannies seek a monopoly on power in regards to their own citizens in such a way that if a citizen disagrees on policy they are made incapable in every way of opposing the state. From a first principles point of view it's an admission that your state is incapable of weathering even the slightest social instability or disagreement, and it also requires an enormous expenditure of resources which as the size of the society rises grows more and more difficult to maintain until policing citizens, compelling their obedience, stealing their resources, etc becomes the primary purpose of the state apparatus, resulting in the failure of other vital components of the society and it's inevitable social, political, and economic collapse. This doesn't even touch on how a government with absolute power (monopoly on force) is fundamentally capable of the maximum level of corruption and waste, the governmental version of russian roulette where everything may be safe for a time but the inherent chaotic nature of reality guarantees a failure somewhere vital. In a government system where the government is vital to everything that failure kills the society.

True to Caesar.

I wouldn't do that anyways, because I usually heavily roleplay i these games. Are you sure the Unofficial patch doesn't fix that?

and why was the Enclave so inclusive, they weren't racists or sexists

You could try im just warning that its a possibility. Even then im sure if you fucked with console commands hard enough you could fix the issue if it happened but i was already getting pretty burnt so i gave up.

>For the Legion, they are Roman cosplayers.
They're a paganistic society who blame ad infinitum technological advancement for the destruction of mankind. That's one of the reasons why they try to look like Romans, to remind people how to be civilized. They're not exactly wrong either, and long term after the Legion eventually disbands after whatever weak line of succession comes after Caesar dies that cultural aspect of theirs will probably benefit mankind a lot.

Also, they rightfully try to shut down gambling , drug abuse, and prostitution. Nothing about any faction is completely good or completely bad, but the Legion are more than just LARP'ers

I rather have the wasteland die on a wastelader's terms than by the fucking Enclave

>and why was the Enclave so inclusive

Daniel is a good character. He wants to protect the Sorrows' peaceful way of life because it's rare- especially in the post-nuclear wastes. I've been reading a little recently about evolutionary psych / anthro and how miraculous it was that hunter-gatherer societies formed around cooperation between groups more so than competition. The Sorrows are one such group and many ideologues today point to these groups as a utopian ideal. Daniel wants to preserve this ideal and prevent them from an escalating path of violence that would fundamentally change them forever.

Compared to Daniel and his motivations, Joshua is a little more base and understandable to people. The development of fascistic / authoritarian ideals in self-preservation. Well written, but lacking in many areas.

If I recall the Legion were the main victims of Obsidian running out of time. That's why they're comically evil and not as fleshed out as the others.

Wow, he is just like us.

The legion is a purposely doomed faction who after they conquer the NCR will with the death of Edward Sallow will collapse into a mess of nations much like when the Western Roman Empire collapsed and from this Humanity will grow stronger

Because a man chooses.

if only they wrote a actually interesting story to go along with it

Maybe that's why we hate him so, he exemplifies everything an introverted, disconnected, slightly egocentric person loathes in themselves, and in recognizing those flaws as our own we are moved to metaphorically self-flagellate by killing House and reveling in punishing him.

... So does the Legion, and its good enough that they can sneak in and out of NCR territory and sack settlement without anyone in the NCR noticing - twice. We also know that the Legion has highly ingrained spies in the NCR already, and within the NCR's over stretched territory there are people, like the Khans, who despise the NCR and admire Caesar.

Also, the Legion does employ energy weapons and etc technology when it comes to military pursuits, it's just that they put severe restrictions on it's usage by rank.

The Legion would definitely pose a major problem to the NCR, although I doubt either side could fully conquer the other.

Merc Charmer is the best clothing for female characters, prove me wrong.

Caesar's Legion doesn't have ANY of the precepts that Rome had that made it's legacy useful for the growth of the European Kingdoms that rose from it. It hasn't established an educated class to preserve information, it hasn't built infrastructure between major locations, it hasn't invested large sums to converting land to agriculture, There isn't a Lingua Roma to assist in diplomacy, there isn't a meaningful military history to learn from and work on

It's just a bunch of chucklefuck raiders, except when Caesar dies they'll turn on themselves and fall into obscurity.

That leaves the majority of those tribals completely uneducated at anything but raiding and listening to who has the biggest stick.

That's not Infrastructure. That disappears the moment the Legion is gone or they themselves become the new raiders plaguing those trade routes. It's just wasteland. Roman roads were important because they provided concrete and reliable pathways for travelers to use, rulers to tax, and soldiers to protect.
>What do you think the slaves are for m8?
From what we've seen? Cannon Fodder and pack mules. At no point is it implied slaves are returned back to Arizona to help in the growth of the Legions Power or agricultural centers.

>That leaves the majority of those tribals completely uneducated at anything but raiding and listening to who has the biggest stick.
It's canon that the Legion oversee societies with running water, electricity, and that the caravans appreciate them because Legion lands are extremely safe from raiders and etc dangers. So no, tribals aren't just taught about war.

>It's canon that the Legion oversee societies with running water, electricity
Those societies are pretty much entirely separate from the Legion outside of being Tributaries, and them having running water and electricity is part of the "Should, coulda, woulda" of the developers, which would have made an entirely different Legion anyways given the time to do so, so that point is mute if we're talking about the Legion we got. We're talking about what the "Legion" provides, and aside from "security", it's not much in the long term.

The "Caravans" who appreciate them live in total fear of them. The one guy in the game who praises the Legion for keeping the roads safe is the same guy who can't leave their Camp because Lanius decapitated one of his Pack Brahmin for annoying him, and he's "not dumb enough" to ask for a reimbursement on it.

>every road in the Roman Empire was paved with concrete
Concrete was more in the synonym with "sturdy", although I don't know what most buildings in Rome being wood have to do with things, when it was those built in stone that were the constructs that would help preserve European Architecture and give them something to emulate. The Legion doesn't provide any such structures.

>I mean, slaves being used for agriculture
If that was the case, they could have simply mentioned it. Neither the game or the developers notes do. They do talk extensively about those slaves being turned around and used as soldiers, and we see them carrying stuff. If you're running by "Obvious" logic, then obviously the Legion has built an extensive system of roads, obviously forms more constructive bonds between them and their subjects, and obliviously Caesar didn't elect his most brutal and widely disliked General to be his defacto heir because ???

>start a level 1 character outside of Freeside
I mean if you do the reload dash glitch you can easily get a level one character over there with only the Goodsprings marker unlocked

Because the old world is dead, and he should have died with it, long ago.
House wanted to create an island of civilization, to restore the world he knew. What he never stopped to consider was that he'd be destroying the one I knew in the process. I don't know much about the world he lived in, but I suppose, in that final moment, I understood enough. There he huddled, a weak, terrified, decaying thing, unable to survive even breathing without the assistance of machines, desperate to live on no matter the cost. There I stood, on my own two feet, having already made my peace weeks ago, in Goodsprings. He reminded me of one of those rusted robots, still living 200 years in the past, unable to realize the world had changed around them. My world ain't perfect. It's a harsh, brutal place. But it's an honest world, that breeds hard men and women: I don't wanna see it torn down all over again just so he can try to resurrect some distant dream of the world he once knew. I've seen the trappings of greed and decadence in the ruins of the sierra madre. I've seen the maddened degenerate scientists of big mountain. I've seen the destruction his world's weapons are capable of causing, in the storms of the divide. I've seen what his 'civilization' led to in the end, and I prefer the savagery.

>this samefagging over a mediocre line

It has been a while since i played but that's basically it.
You and your opponent each have 3 stacks, you win when you have two stacks between 21 and 26 and lose if your opponent does the same.

That's really the key thing you need to know, you'll figure other shit like suits, deckbuilding and what the royal cards do just by playing a couple of games.

>You've never held a position of power over anyone, have you?
What did he mean by this?

House should be given a synth body.

Also Kings double the value of a card so you can fuck over your opponent and make their stack to big, jack removes cards so you can do that to unfuck your stack or fuck theirs and queen lets you change stack order from descending to ascending or vice versa. Joke is a fuck shit up card cause you can force it to remove every card of the same face if placed on ace or number if placed on that number from the board

The most skipping that I did was when I tried to get Raul at level 4 with that stealth boy you get from the school. It was painful as fuck.

What did he eat?

Also, why are people still eating 200 year old food?

And why does everything still look like complete shit after 200 years? People literally living in houses that are 200 years old and falling apart. Why does no one ever build anything new in the Fallout universe? You would think after 200 years there would be plenty of untamed forests and places brimming with resources to rebuild the world.

that is babymode, I beat Lonesome road starting at level 1

The courier can literally achieve all of those things, except first-hand prewar knowledge, as they can replace their vital organs, unite the majority of New Vegas, and topple regimes all on their own

This is largely due to bethesdas incompetence. Governments, cities, and infrastructure are built and established in the fallout universe.

Regardless, look at Chernobyl for example. It's much more radioactive that most places that atom bombs were dropped on, yet still nature is somewhat thriving there despite the radiation, and it's only been what, 33 years since Chernobyl happened?

Imagine 200 years after a large scale nuclear exchange, most of the most dangerous isotopes would be long gone, and less people means nature will thrive in the aftermath.

it's been established that radiation works differently in the fallout universe

Again. It's not based on real radiation. It's based on an exaggerated and misunderstood comic book depiction of it. Just like all of the technology in the fallout series is based on 50's ideas of what the future would be like.

Synths should never return. What a stupid fucking idea they were.

>Those societies are pretty much entirely separate from the Legion
You realize that one of the conditions for tribute probably also means "service" to the legion? So not just growing food for them and providing etc manufacturing for them, but actually being engaged in the state? Caesar himself calls his state totalitarian so it definitely plays a more major cultural role.

>The "Caravans"
... Yes they are indeed called caravans , what's with the ""
>live in total fear of them
I mean yeah, the reason why Legion territory is so safe is because the Legion are just that brutal in their punishments. They actually apply the death penalty and etc harsh corporal punishment.
>Aside from security they aren't providing much
I mean, I think enslaving or murdering anyone like raiders getting in the way for people prosper so they can actually build themselves up a bit is pretty important in a post apocalyptic world

>I don't understand what Rome mostly being built out of wood has anything to do with what I'm saying
There was more to Rome than your jerking off over their stoneworks, their trade routes were maintained through vast security forces making then stable.

>The developers never say that the Legion uses *slaves* for agriculture
I can't even... I mean first of all you can talk to the slaves about them being forces to do manual labor but for whatever fucking reason working in a field does not count as manual labor to you?

What are you smoking right now?

Since this is a FNV thread, I got an issue that's been bugging me for months. After spending 5 hours stabilizing the game, I have one last issue. I cannot for the life of me activate windowed mode since alt+tabing out of FNV on fullscreen leads to a crash

I tried OneTweak but that doesn't work since I cannot activate windowed mode, even after toggling it on launcher and the ini files

Synths are neat idea. Fallout 4 just had terrible execution of them as a concept. My only guess as to why this happened was because 76 was being developed as 4s multiplayer.

>Said individual obliges your request too meet with him, Courier literally couldve walked away.
>politely request he/she finish his delivery and pay him for his services (Maybe a tip considering this poor fucker got shit in the face cause of your incompetence)
Couriers HAVE to finish the job no matter what, it's in the contract. If you fail to finish a job you pay for it with your life.
Also from the jobs we've seen and considering you're traveling the wasteland delivering shit it's obvious that you're putting yourself in danger being a courier.
House gives you a home in a sought after location with clean water, power, easy access to money and absolute privacy.
It's understandable that when the thing he sought after for 200 years is finally in his grasp he gets overly emotional and you're an idiot to think that any normal person could do otherwise.
People like you who can't even understand a basic story device are the reason we're stuck with such dumbed down games today.

Absolutely based user. Kino line which I will definitely incorporate.

I role played as an NCR stooge in my first play through and did a lot stuff I felt bad about. Killed House, destroyed the Brotherhood of Steel after doing all their quests, made the Great Khans suicide attack in the battle of Hoover Dam, etc.

I feel like Far Harbor is what they originally wanted for the main story of the base game. The institute being evil as fuck but if the player character wanted an absolute peaceful ending for all factions, you'd have to kill all their leaders and turn a blind eye to morally repugnant shit that other factions did. And in the end although you destroyed the Institute, you effectively became them by trying to end the fighting and paranoia

Sounds like gay M Night Shamalan stuff

Youre a fucking delivery guy in a post apoc nuclear society where if you skip out on deliveries a bounty gets put on your fucking head. Your whole fucking rationale for making the delivery should be, “Well I sure dont want to fucking die over a fucking poker chip maybe should get it back.” The fact you claimed your vengeance is very nice though.

Reminder that Fallout 4 attempted gay M Night stuff already with Shaun being an old man, it's just that literally anyone with half a brain cell figured it out exactly 0.01 seconds after they were refrozen in the intro so even the fucking slowest downie player saw the twist coming a mile away.

took him out and put him right back in. The long long hell of germs slowly killing him was the right choice.

>Youre a fucking delivery guy in a post apoc nuclear society
no i'm not
i'm roleplaying as something else you fucking faggot

yea no Mr. House clearly bluffing also Yes Man could override everything for you to control that's why he needs the chip to increase his power

>but actually being engaged in the state
Except this is directly contradicted in Directors notes for what their intentions would be for inhabitants of the Legions lands. The Legion would be very hands off until they needed something, at which point you had better give it to them, or you'd be obliterated. Only conquered Tribals are allowed in the Legion proper.

> I think enslaving or murdering anyone like raiders getting in the way for people prosper so they can actually build themselves up a bit is pretty important in a post apocalyptic world
Every other faction does this, the Legion just does it a bit more efficiently since every fiber of their being is out raiding the existing raiders.

>There was more to Rome than your jerking off over their stoneworks, their trade routes were maintained through vast security forces making then stable.
Exactly, The Legion doesn't even have the bear minimum of what Rome provided in the form of trade routes, so how can you say that they contribute to redeveloping Humanity?

Caesar legion has better spy network than the NCR

Because he is still a man, not a monster. It's a visual shorthand, communicating to the player that he hasn't gone mad with power or become corrupted by an overly logical viewpoint, instead he is quite literally sealed away in a time capsule, isolated from the outside world and only able to observe it, but still the same man he was before the bombs fell.

Because I was a better choice than him and he wanted death.

Go independent and stick Benny on the fucking cross

Because he was an idiot who didn't turn himself into a cyborg.

This.

Because NV is an underdog story. The courier survives death and ends the game ruling over the region. You could support the NCR or Legion, but you'd be ignoring the whole point of the game, which is neither nations are best for NV, and adding a third faction to the mix not only brings about an abrupt end to the NCR / Legion war, but also allows a safe haven for those who choose to be part of neither side.

Also because I fucking hate boomers, the future is now old man.
