>and the quest failed on me when I was halfway to Primm.
so what happens when you go back to Goodsprings?

>>380426302
The ringo quest? yeah you can wait till you've completed majority of the game. The tutorial quest isn't ringos quest, and will fail when you exit the starting area.

>>380426467
Good and evil exist, hedonism and materialism are evil, go crucify some profligates.

I find it really fun to do if I'm playing as a female courier with 1 INT. That's how you do legion. You combine it with some other stuff, like a low INT run.

Play a character who isn't evil but is bored with life and wants to challenge himself. Test your skill by fighting the armored NCR in a spiffy fox hat, football armor, and skirt. If you don't care about what's objectively best for New Vegas and just want to fuck shit up in the wasteland, join the Legion and have fun.

>>380426518

you don't have to be evil anon. you just have to see that the Legion is going to come out on top if you don't step in. that is the only way that the legion is stopped. the NCR is too spread out and inefficient to stop them at Hoover, House can't take on Benny without upsetting the careful balance of power he has cultivated in Vegas, and Benny doesn' have the acumen or skill to manage the families and keep vegas independent.

Caesar is going to come out on top. he has the numbers, he has the loyalty, and he has the skill.

What can you do? you can minimize the damage. you can curb the more violent and savage underlings of the Legion. you can minimize the damage that comes to the Mojave. think about it anon.

are you a savvy enough Courier to make the people of the wasteland WANT the legion there?

I didn't use an ad hominem anon, I insulted you, those are two different things.

So since these threads literally have been going on for what seems like a year, why have none of you faggots made a better version of this.

I want interesting character builds.

Also are there any mods to get to the main story quicker? Thats my biggest gripe starting new characters. I know of the random start location mod but you still have to go through bullshit with Primm or the jail I think, it just feels like for ever until the game really opens up.

Should female characters have some kind of STR and END limit that's below male characters?

>>380426797

It's just not the same..

/vg/ does not attract the same kind of people. New people are always coming into these threads, unlike the generals which also are always stale as fuck and focused on some other shit aspect of the game. You just don't get the same kind of discussion.

No, anon, an ad hominem is "you're wrong because of *character fault*". What I did is I insulted you, which is just "character fault". Informal logical fallacies are already pleb-tier in and of themselves but to not even understand how they work.

What do you mean like spawning somewhere closer to Vegas? I don't think there's any of those but you can literally just go through the regular way without dealing with any of the quests or NPC to Vegas.

>>380427459
steal that gold anon, it's okay to cheat or glitch for that. The game devs do the same to you.

>>380427548
Don't know what you're talking about, just killed Catherine

>>380427459
You mean Christine? It's a shame because you have a perfect opportunity to do so on a king size bed just before you enter the Seirra vault.

Why is playing a Energy Weapons build such a huge pain in the ass in this game? EG ammo is rare as fuck and even the ones who sell them like the Van Graffs and the BoS only sell small quantities of them.

You can convert MF to EC to MC or vice versa. You can even convert fusion batteries.

Lockpicking or Science? Which is more viable?

Is starting with 8 or 9 INT a good idea?

Does the difficulty setting affect how much experience you get?

Is Swift Learner ever worth taking?

Should I avoid taking any traits?

Is power armor a necessity?

>>380428645
The only sources of entertainment we need in the wasteland are pit fights and sex.

>>380429374
Science has benefits besides opening computers.

Does anybody else here play with the extra needs mod? If so then how do I get rid of the malnourished effect? It gimps my character and I can't get rid of it.

>>380428118

When you're idolized, the Legion gives you close to a thousand MF cells every few days. Great Khan Armorer stocks hundreds. The Hoover Dam guy stocks hundreds.

I've probably done the Legion Raid Camp-Nelson-Cottonwood Cove-The Fort run over a dozen times and have never seen a legionnaire drop an energy weapon.

You have a point with the Van Graff quest though.

>>380430312
You can have a wife-slave

Depends really, some places would allow you to use either but would lead to the same outcome. There are more stuff that you'd have to use lockingpicking for though.
>Is starting with 8 or 9 INT a good idea?
8 you can max it out as you go through
>Is Swift Learner ever worth taking?
You might end up over-leveled if your planning to take it with high INT. You'll be leveling up quick with extra skill points to distribute.
>Should I avoid taking any traits?
Depends on what you want. Traits can add challenges or allow you to powergame. You can negate "Skilled's" -10% experience with swift learner for example.
>Is power armor a necessity?
If you want to melee but with a low Endurance or Strength, then its good.

Faction armor is kinda buggy anyway from what I remember, think it screwed up my rep before.

>>380433298

Is it possible to imitate how bullets interact with armour in real life using GECK? I.e. vests that protect against pistol cartridges are completely useless against intermediate/rifle cartridges?

Is it viable to use this suit throughout the rest of the game or does it become obsolete pretty quickly? I'd feel bad about dumping such a faithful suit even if there are better armors out there

No, he's right. Wearing White Mask suits once fucked with my reputation with all other factions permanently. Nowadays I always save before using faction armor.

The trick with roboscorpions is to always use a proton axe.
Even if you have no melee skills you'll do good damage, and as long as you're up close they'll only try to hit you with easily-dodged melee attacks.

>>380433945
Of course it has great DPS. It shoots 100 fucking bullets in a second

>>380434242
I'm playing on Hardcore and that thing weights like 25 kilos.

>>380434039
It depends on the weapon. I like the Vicky and Vance SMG because it doesn't look like complete shit compared to the regular SMG. But I also like the 9mm pistol more than Maria because I like how the regular pistol looks more.

>>380434259
L.A.E.R works wonders with them as well. You don't to be an energy weapons expert to use it well; I'm playing with a Guns focused Courier and doing fine.

I like the weight limit, the fact that stimpacks heal more slowly, that ammo has weight now and needing to eat, drink and sleep. It just makes the game more immersive for me. I've started playing Hardcore for my current Courier and I'm planning to do so in all my following playthroughs.

>>380434525
Yeah drinking and eating is just annoying menu management. Not to mention that the "difficulty" about it is completely killed by having survival at like 20 to make Gekko Steak.
Its the same shit with Frostfall in Skyrim. Just autistic menu management for the most part. I do like it for the Stimpack healing and Ammo weight though, just use a mod that sets food and h2o growth to like 1 in 24 hours

So my current playthrough in NV has the Courier as a Witcher-type individual. What I mean by that is that he's a master hunter and while he's out for the money, he ultimately helps people like Geralt does (for a price). Who should I side with? Obviously Legion is right out, but I'm unsure of the others. I was thinking House, but I don't think NCR and Independent are outside of the scope either.

If I have 8 INT will skilled balance it out?

Depends on the political views of your character. Gimme some details about his background. Does he believe in democracy, autocracy, anarchy?

>>380434813
Either Independent or NCR. House would work if he is full merc mode.

>>380435032
>How so?
Putting Lanius in power armor should be a punishable offense. The idea is that he's such a badass with his strength alone. Having your most powerful warrior be dependent of machines to be as mighty as he is undermines the philosophy of the Legion.

>>380435102
Not a AAA game at least. Maybe Cyberpunk would be like it. New Vegas felt like the last death throes of a genre and a last hurrah for OG crpg developers.

It depends on the Witcher, really. I mean, give power to the NCR if you want to keep the world unsafe enough to keep working. House doesn't seem such a bad option either; he's another form of king and he's fairly benevolent. Independent doesn't fit really fit a witcher. They don't take charge, they solve the problems of the people in charge. So either NCR or House.

Caesar tells you that his men mostly train with machetes and unarmed so they don't rely on technology like the NCR or BoS. They can use basic guns but they're still deadly when they run out of ammo.

>>380435469
The Romans; Ceasar might have the aesthetic but his way of government is more akin to Sparta meets the Gauls.
Hell, the reasons he doesn't want any Legionaries down in the bunker is because he doesn't want them to expose them to war machinery. The Legion believes that men became too dependent on machines to fight their wars for them. He believes in the inherent strength of humankind, that's the point of the focus on close combat training.

Hey, I agree that the Courier is a male canonically. Just by the number of whores you encounter you can see the game was meant to be played with a male character. But I still like experimenting a little.
If you want my idea of the main characters' canon gender they'd be
Vault Dweller: Male
Chosen One: Male
Lone Wanderer: Female
Courier: Male
Sole Survivor: Female

>>380435786
NCR will collapse once they take over Nevada. They're expanding too quickly and too spread out straining the ever loving fuck out of the taxpayer. If you want the NCR to survive you need tough love by kicking them out of Vegas and Nevada. Many of the retards like Oliver, Hsu, Kimball and other poltician dickhead will be ousted for this failure and the NCR can focus on California. Only when they're actually ready they can expand north.

>>380436102

That's why I said that if he wants to keep the world unsafe enough to keep getting work protecting people he should hand over Vegas to the NCR. When their government collapses a Witcher would be swimming in job offers to get rid of plagues NCR troopers can no longer handle.

I think the sole survivor is a canon male. He's the one speaking in the intro and he's a former US soldier while she's a lawyer. Shaun also has extra dialog about his mother if she died.

>>380436395
The tapes you find in the Jefferson Monument when James is talking about his daughter seems more sincere when he mentions how similar to her mother the LW has become. I feel it's more appropriate. Nothing else in the game seems to provide any evidence against it either, so I think a female Lone Wanderer is the canon choice. Also, what >>380436482 said.

>>380436464
I think those are all.
You can help Dala masturbate, if that counts for anything.

>>380436570
I still like the idea of the woman raising hell to find her child more. Makes the idea of a lawyer becoming a warmongering badass more interesting.

>>380436705
That shit turned me on so unexpectedly. Mod to put Dala in an Assaultron body when?

>>380436705
We would've also had Cass but it didn't happen because Avellone is too much of an autist to handle romance and he made her cuck the Courier in the NCR ending

>>380436782
Dala used to be a man.

>>380436818
It's pretty obvious that romance options were considered with all companions. You have two straight women, two lesbians, two gays and two straight men.

>>380436912
Nope, pretty sure Dala was the only woman.

>>380436776
>I still like the idea of the woman raising hell to find her child more. Makes the idea of a lawyer becoming a warmongering badass more interesting.

There's also the knowing how to use power armour thing. That is the veteran husband's experience coming into play.

Check out her apartment; she was obviously a girl. Also, Big MT only has one female voice modulator. Makes sense the only person to use it would be a girl in the Think Tank.

Dala also clearly had body image issues, since her house has a bunch of mirrors set up like a fashion walkway that have all been smashed and at least two pairs of female naughty nightwear laying around. That, and her obsession with the human form as a Think Tank

>>380437018
They retconed it into having everyone be able to use Power Armor without training. Why else would Pier, Cait or any companion be able to use it? Or any random raiders?
In the first two games any idiot could use Power Armor. It was 3 that changed it, and then Beth went back on it for 4 despite forcing Obsidian to stick to it for NV.

Is there a Deathclaw nest nearby I could spend these on? While 40 sticks of dynamite is nice, it's encumbering in the long run. While we're on the subject of the NCR jail.

>clear out the jail with NCR
>all the Powder Gangers dead
>looting the jail still counts as stealing from them
>karma gets reset all the way back to neutral for pilfering the entire place
They really need to do something about this. It's not really stealing if the original tenants are all dead. Powder Gangers aren't going to retake the jail I don't think and it's pretty stupid to just leave all these useful items lying around because it's 'bad to steal'.

>>380437129
All the way to the left, just because your super smart doesn't mean you'd look beautiful. And Dala's house had plenty of mirrors and shit looking at herself in her sexy sleepware imagining herself as a model. God damn now I feel really bad letting her live in that hell in the Think Tank.

>>380437269
Karma in NV received the same treatment than in 2. Just an afterthought. As long as you're helpful, the Mojave's powers don't care how good or evil you are. That's why Reputation is what actually matters. Just like in real life.

It counts as stealling because the jail becomes NCR property again.

Gender equality is a social construct. In a lawless world, men dominate. Their testosterone producing balls compel them to do so. How many female bandit leaders do you see in the mojave? There's just one, that crazy bandit chick. Realistically, no woman could lead a group of immoral men for long before getting raped or beaten.

Women do well in the NCR through. That's because the NCR has laws and such that they hold themselves too.

The only mistake NCR did in Bitter Springs was not bringing more bullets

I think he mentions once you meet him that he saw actual scorpions making it to the Big Empty and he was so impressed he armored them and later on added the capability of shooting laser beams.

Seriously, fuck Great Khans. And for some reasons most of their members are so weirdly friendly when you meet them in Red Rock Canyon.

>>380440216
That's,why they're the niggers if the wasteland, fucking tribals are better than them imom

>>380439860
Khans have women and let them advance as far as they are physically able to. But the leader is still a dude, you know what I'm saying?

While I agree, your insistence on this in a video game filled with SCIENCE and radiation-induced superpowers sounds a bit misguided. Not to mention how S.P.E.C.I.A.L. doesn't even pretend to be simulationist.

Yeah, the leader is a guy. But they don't seem to look down on women that much.

>>380441043
They don't look down on them. I don't think I meant to say they ever did. The line of discussion stemmed from me saying men are inherently stronger than women and hence they tend to outrank them in lawless societies, or semi lawful societies where physical strength is a ticket to leadership roles.

Help, I wanted to replay NV but I ended up fucking up and having to uninstall and theres all this shit related to mods in my directory. I forgot what all the stutter removers and 4g texture shit is, is there a guide for setting up the basic stuff for mods?

>>380441486
That makes sense and I agree with your point.

Why does Mr. House pay 2000 caps for Snowglobes yet he only pays a measly 1000 caps for the chip?

>>380442267
He's spent several hundred thousand caps on the chips already; paying for delivery is nothing compared to that. The snowgloves, on the other hand, are pure scavenging, so he puts a higher price on them.

>>380442267
Because the Chip was a contract job for 250 caps and he offers a bonus to make up for the extra workload of recovering it from Benny

Paying the delivery fee is just settling a pre-establish contract. His real reward for regaining the Chip is an offer of employment and the Presidential Suite of the Lucky 38

>>380442267
There's only one chip and he believes he could kill you easily if you refused the deal. Snowglobes, though. He wants repeat business on those.

>>380442348
Nice place to hide that armor. I fucked myself out of For Auld Lang Syne by siding with the Legion before I even got to Freeside and Arcade won't talk to me.

>>380442267
He's paying you 250 caps for the job you agreed to do for 250 caps. You're a mailman delivering a package. Your actual reward for retrieving the chip from Benny is getting Benny's job and related perks.

He's paying you 2000 caps for snowglobes because a man has to collect something pointlessly expensive and and no one in Vegas sells Tragic cards.

Should have thought of that before I blew his head of.

>>380442526
And the helmet is hidden in the cave with the legendary cazador. Makes me feel the Enclave suit was supposed to be purely for bragging rights, considering how useless it is in vanilla game.

Which character can you never kill even if it would be in your best interest to do so?

How do you all replay this game so much? The world and characters are stale and shit, the quests are boring, and the core gameplay sucks dick. I enjoy the lore discussions and ideas, but don't you all realize it's ultimately for a game that is a fucking piece of shit by modern standards and Bethesda/Obsidian will NEVER put this much thought/fulfill the potential of the world?

Damn it /v/ fuck you
>downloading NV for 3rd time

>>380442825
How is it useless?

>>380442825
Well, the Enclave Remnant Power armor has the highest DT in the game. It breaks easily, but piercing it is hard for most enemies unless they're Deathclaws and such.

Not him but I remember an old post here that explained DT is useless beyond a certain value.

Unironicalyl why does killing the white legs give me evil karma
I dont mind having bad karma but killing them then coming back made my ending slides turn into literally hitler

Can I play the game just with a revolver?
