'Word of God' says you are meant to interpret that line as Yes Man figuring out his programming so that if someone asks him to overthrow you he doesn't just say yes.
Direct quote is that "He's still yes man, but he's your yes man."

>he choose Yes Man over Mr. House
You're gonna need to explain yourself, anon. Why?
I chose Caesar because his idea of ramming the Legion into the NCR and making the Roman republic sounded like it would be kind of fun.
I would choose caesar more often but NCR has like 3x the content
That said I usually stretch every faction as far as I possibly can before having to start cleansing. You can get pretty far playing all sides. Man I love this game
>Going with Yes Man is the only way you can one-up Ulysses in his little rants,
Nope, one upping Ulysses is denying everything he says and then killing him.
The moment you engage with a crazy person you already lost. >it's still heavily coded as the good ending in the game itself
I think clearly isn't. The NCR is. Even nonsensically at times
It matters when it's clarifying a slightly ambiguous facet of the text. It's not like he came out and said house was actually gay the whole time or that the NCR is an allegory for AIDS.
That ending Yes Man line about updating himself to be more assertive was confirmed to have just meant he'd only take orders from you instead of any schmuck off the street.
>so cucked he can never see himself in a position of power and instead seeks to submit to someone "smarter" or "better" and even in a situation when power is his for the taking, would create made up reasons for why taking it is a bad thing or wouldn't work out
It's all over for you, unironically.
>see himself in a position of power
But you don't have one
Yes Man controls the securitrons
Yes Man is immortal
Yes Man has access to House's entire network and can be everywhere all the time
You're nothing but a puppet
Imagine being wrong for thirteen straight years. Over a decade of reciting the exact same thing that was debunked by the author of the work almost immediately, and yet you hold onto it. Wrongly. For thirteen years. I don't know, bros, I think I'd kill myself if it happened to me.
The game never implied that Yes Man is taking over. The line about Yes Man fixing the error in his programming implies he will now only obey your commands. You are all worthless stupid trash.
>I DON'T CARE WHAT THE AUTHOR SAYS, MY HEADCANON IS TRUE
Hahaha what a moron
[...]
In-game, Yes Man tells you he is glitched and improperly follows orders from everyone when he's only meant to serve House. The Courier (or YOU) decide to use this against House. If you are paying any attention to the game then you should understand "Hmmm... I used Yes Man to defeat House and to take over New Vegas, but what is to stop someone else from using Yes Man against me?" That is what that line is meant for. The glitch is fixed. He will be "assertive" and say no to the next butthole that decides to use him, against you, or for any purpose at all.
[...]
You are nothing but a worthless moron.
>tells you he is glitched
Nope. He tells you that's his nature and how he was programmed.
That's why you Yes Cucks are pathetic. Need to bullshit about the game abd rely on outside sources to pretend Yes Man isn't the moron's pick

You are genuinely stupid. A true moron. I hope you have the decency to have a nice day soon.
>Yes Man was originally a generic securitron robot programmed to work for Mr. House like all the other securitrons found on the Strip. He was recovered by Benny and several of the Chairmen after being damaged by a pulse grenade. Following this incident, Followers of the Apocalypse member Emily Ortal examined the securitron in order to learn Mr. House's secrets in exchange for reprogramming him for Benny's personal use.[1]
>The reprogramming was extensive, and resulted in Yes Man being designed to do exactly as he is told; thus, Yes Man is not just the program's name, it's also his job description. Yes Man is completely incapable of declining any order or withholding any information he is asked for, no matter who he is interacting with. Benny's plan was to dispose of Mr. House and install Yes Man's A.I. onto the Lucky 38 mainframe, putting Yes Man (and by extension, himself) in control of all the securitrons on the Strip. Yes Man's main objective was to use his connection to Mr. Houses' internal databases and feed valuable information to Benny so that he could stay one step ahead of House.[2]
Yes Man was not meant to follow orders from everyone. It's a busted/reprogrammed unit. I played this game 10 years ago and I remember these details, but genuine trash like you probably can't even figure out what 2+2 is.

I said Yes Man was glitched but really he was reprogrammed by one of House's enemies. That detail doesn't really matter though and that wasn't the main issue we were talking about. Yes Man fixed the problem of him taking orders from just anyone. He doesn't trick you and take over New Vegas.
Talking to you is worthless though. I can tell you have severely low IQ and aren't really worth the time. Josh Sawyer himself confirmed that's what the ending was. If that's not "proof" enough for you then... who cares what you think anyway? You're just an idiot.

Smartest and more honest Yes Cuck >Yes Man fixed the problem of him taking orders from just anyone
How? He says he found "snippets of code" in House's "databanks". How could that possibly be something that fits his unique nature when House didn't know he existed? How does this code allow him to be assertive enough to not roll over for anyone but not take over? How does it know to limit itself?
This why Yes Man is the choice for the stupidest of all morons. He's a gamey option there for players to finish the game if they ever killed every npc and yet moronic morons still take him seriously as an option
Even though he can easily betray you like he did Benny, with your single solitary evidence against it being a nonsensical line of dialogue, right at the end that you can't even take at face value and had to go to outside sources for it. >Josh Sawyer himself confirmed that's what the ending was

That is not how the game goes at all. You're just a mentally ill piece of trash.
it's the thinking mans choice, why should I obey some homosexual faction and get them to rule when I could be the one ruling the world alone how I see fit
You don't rule the world, dipshit, you plunge the Mojave into anarchy and take over house's role as owner of the strip, just without the genius and vision. Frick off with your fan fiction, homosexual.
Technically if you are a genius then the courier is a genius. If you have an idea or a vision for society than the courier does too. NPC humans can't understand this.
It's not in the text. Work from what's in the text or frick off. You don't get to play dynamite in rock paper scissors, and you don't get to play muh INT 100 messiah moralgay courier would make star trek gay space gommunism with his magic army.
Also >if you're a genius the courier is too
You're not, clearly. Plus >self insert
>You're not, clearly
Speak for yourself, trash. >It's not in the text. Work from what's in the text or frick off. You don't get to play dynamite in rock paper scissors
It's an RPG. I can add things in between the text. My courier took over NV and set up Securitron hit squads to kill all the Black folk and transgenders and you can't tell me that it's not what I did.
>It's an RPG. I can add things in between the text
Lol, no
Otherwise my ending is that the Kings take over the Mojave because they discover that Godzilla, long since slumbering beneath the waters of lake mead, responds positively to Elvis Presley's music, so with a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound, he lays waste to the waste land

When you're watching a schizo shit in the street, you don't say shit to him, you say shit to the other normals watching him.
With the DLC you can pretty much cripple everyone >you can destroy the I-80 outpost and Dry Wells, leading to a top Legion camp being decimated and the entrance to the Mojave closed >Murder Caesar, Prez kimball, Lanius, mr. House, General Oliver, >Destroy the securitron robots for no reason
You can walk away with every single faction a shell of themselves and no one single faction strong enough.
Is that the one where the ending with an ally Elijah is canon and you just turn Mojave into one giant Sierra Madre? Would it have any actual quests where you work with Elijah, or is it just a red haze everywhere?

>have still yet to complete Hardcore mode.
Honestly hardcore mode is more irritating than actually challenging. Having even a decent survival skill absolutely fricking trivializes it.
I like eating and drinking for immersion and more use to them (can't remember if new vegas has Well Fed bonuses too)
Also I find it essential for ammo weight and stimpack HoT
Hardcore is only good because of the limb crippling and the ammo weight. Makes it less braindead to just hoard ammo and stimpacks. Shoulda made it so stims and other drugs weigh shit as well.
Mr House gives you all the luxuries in Vegas, without any of the responsabilities of command. Sure, he might rule the place as a dictator, but that's not my problem. I'll be on Gomorrah snorting jet off a hooker's breasts.
I still feel the securitron army is too small and static to serve all of the Mojave's military needs. Sure, guards, grunt soldiers, large formation assaults? But they need an elite. Since the Courier was so damn good, I'm sure they would be tasked with forming an elite squad (they could easily be the companions you pick up) of mercs and soldiers to serve House.
Didn't the vault have a larger army of them as well as the software upgrade? You only need a small number of enhanced bots roaming the wastelands to keep everything locked down. No need to worry about feeding an army or where their loyalties lie
Oh sure, ther'es like 1-2 thousand of them so that's quite a lot. But anyone well equipped could take them out if they wanted to in single combat. How would it handle a gurella terrorist campaign? They're not very intelligent and House would have to micro-manage them. They would only be good for standard threats like junkies, hobos, raiders, rather than anything sophisticated.
>teams shows up with 50 Cal Anti-material rifle and pulse grenades >Securitron squad is taken out before it can reach them, and those that too are disabled
To be honest, who in the wasteland would have that kind of tech? The BoS does, but that's why House has you take them out of the picture before his ending.
ncr could if they really wanted but most factions would correctly guess that it wouldn't be worth the effort.
fighting thousands of military bots coming from a well defended place is a war no sane government would fight
>Since the Courier was so damn good, I'm sure they would be tasked with forming an elite squad
I've always thought a House second in command Courier would refound the Desert Rangers.
It's just a perfect opportunity. You have the funding, the elite/recon ops they're specialized in is the sorta thing securitrons can't do and you got yourself a perfect training ground/armor deposit in the Divide
In a decade you can yourself and the finest commandos the wasteland could produce
I think Boone is too much of a patriot for it. But you could definitely poach a lot from the NCR rangers. The Unification Treaty was only 10 years ago, so one can definitely see the old guard leaving because the NCR simply can't protect Nevada as it was accorded.
Promising youngsters too, more likely to be attracted to better pay, equipment and a harsher training
Downside is that House has a super computer running probabilities at all times (The House Always Wins). It's possible he'd see you as a threat to be eliminated if you get too good.
>I think Boone is too much of a patriot for it.
I think he'd resign if there was ever a Vegas vs. NCR war, but otherwise he'd be game. It's mostly keeping the peace, and special op missions against NCR, Raider factions, and other chucklefricks he has no qualms about genociding.

>It's possible he'd see you as a threat to be eliminated if you get too good.
I don't think so. He picked you because of your almost supernatural competence, plus, one of House's flaws is his inability to see the other guy perspective, that's why he was blindsided by Benny's betrayal, because logically thinking House raised Benny from a tribal to the second most important man in a city that's uniquely rich and powerful in the wasteland, he made him his executor and rewarded him well, he literally couldn't see that Benny so would want more because it's not logical or practical, ie what House would do. >I think he'd resign if there was ever a Vegas vs. NCR war, but otherwise he'd be game
True, but that's part of the problem. While open war would be unlikely, tensions and operations against the NCR would definitely happen, and you can't have your second in command more loyal to another nation

Before Yes Man he was just another head of the 3 families, which have equal power over their own affairs and are subservient to House.

Not him but I do believe House mentions that he did want to make Benny his personal henchman until he went rogue.
the lack of De Jeure rule and rule of law is a bit disturbing in House's world. Sure, he's no mad dictator and wishes to foucs on his projects of rebuilding Vegas to get the industry going, to then get space flight and world colonization going. But... he effectively just hands out Death Sentences to the Courier like candy for factions that only mildly or theoretically oppose him. Most players will try to end them peacefully, but still, that's only the intervention of the Courier's good hearted nature.
His system seems more akin to China or Singapore than anything. Oppose him and die, or ignore him and you can do what you want.
Mr house sucks dick and im tired of all the house dick riding. If he was so great, how come he just didn’t upgrade the robots himself instead of needing the platinum chip?
>STD ridden wasteland bawds hooked up on jet
Yeah, no thanks.
Also, you're wrong. Legion don't get to run around raping women and any that do would be killed. The rules are weird like that, burning and crucifixion = okay, giving into your horny brain = not okay.
>"I've heard they don't allow women in their military, considering them nothing more than breeding stock"
they literally have child quotas to reproduce as much as possible, what do you think female slaves are for? not rape?
>heard
Also yes, rape, but not in the way of running around fricking who they want. You will be assigned your slavegirl and if she's a fat prostitute you will be happy
The best outcome for the Mojave is the one where it becomes strategically worthless. Therefor, the best path is Yes Man with the Hoover Dam being sabotaged.
>thread about new vegas discussing the choices, not a single troll making it about trannies >AI threads currently spammed to the brim
really makes you think about who the shitters on the board are huh?
The AI can't into distinct models. the T-51 is the most common helmet thanks to the cover art of Fallout 1 and 2, but it seems to pull body shots from Bethesda's stuff.
When will the Enclave get the content it deserves? Auld Lang Syne showed how there were "good" people in the Enclave. Stop showing them as le ebil fascists and lets get some depth to the storytelling here.
The enclave is done but I think a faction formed out of the many enclave remnants that weren't totally on board with the 'gas the mutants, race war now' agenda of the oil rig guys would work.
Ya and they kind of fumbled the ball. Fo3 enclave wanted the exact same outcome as the BoS just with them in control because Col. Old South didn't trust anyone else in control, and President Computer's idea was just 'gas the mutants, race war now' again.
Was anyone in the remnants even conventionally "good" besides Arc**t Gaynon? They were all Enclave soldiers, I figure they're more of an "I was just following orders" demographic rather than good people.
They seem to still just be doing what they're told when you get a hold of them and there are like 2 c**ts with personal grudges. Soulless goyim the way I see them. No principles, no views, no morals, only work.
There's literally no reason New Vegas can't have a population of 100,000 to 1,000,000 other than game engine limiations. It's implied to be in the low thousands (you can't visit the majority of the buildings). With free access to power and water, there's no reason you wouldn't get immigrants, and with the local rock quary you could start making proper buildings and cement. Even simple cement buildings could house hundreds each.
The pop then could be used for administration, services, tech industry, you name it. Then the water used for surrounding farmland.
You have a recipe for a reasonably sized Republic, which given the scale of the setting means it'd rival the NCR.
Any word on NCR population? I only imagine a few million themselves.
>Then the water used for surrounding farmland.
There aint no surrounding farmland
There's a bunch of quests of the NCR trying and finding out the same thing people have been finding out for thousands of years: can't farm shit in a desert
I'm just better than everyone.
People kept talking how absurd it was to send a squadron of vertibirds to save some mailman in the Frontier, but now that I think about, this is a game where every major faction sends you to wipe out AN ENTIRE CHAPTER of the Brotherhood on your own and expects you to succeed. No platoon of foot soldiers for backup, no small party of elite operatives, no attempt at helping out with a covert op, just go ahead and figure out how to wipe out A CHAPTER of lunatics with some of the most advanced military hardware in existence. You're the protagonist after all.
And if I can do that, who are you to tell me I can't run a nation when some moron beef jerky in a test tube supposedly can?
didn't actually care about the lore LOL think I chose NCR since they were the first guys I ran into I don't pay attention to the factions I just sent ghouls to space since I'm AWESOME
there’s ire there sure alot of comments in there don’t know if it is bad or not you know and things like that popular or not not not and hingmslike that and thing alike thaqt not sure if it is bad or not you know and things like t and things like that and thing ksksk that you know and thing slkek that sn thing kskks that
Wild card ruined the discussion of endings. Instead of actually taking about the three defined factions and ideologies you just have fricking morons come in and say their super OC courier 6 will go wild card and make a utopia and because it's open ended you can't actually tell them that's bullshit.
>My plan? >Well that's simple >I'll send everyone to space and we'll colonize somewhere else!
That's your grand master plan? I'd respect it if he was like "I'll try to find a geck and wait until the radiation eventually dissipates" but no he's just gonna try to explore space, somehow
He loses me with his end-game, which is too abstract and ignores the problems of the here and now. He has a slum literally 1km from his HQ and he just seems to ignore it? Yeah, it's NCR controlled and it's NCR squatters who are mostly the slum people, so it's NCR's problem, but other than a cursory reference to him hiring the Followers to provide medical care, he doesn't seem to care much for the plight of most people.
Why does he scream that hespent 2 centuries searching for le cheep if he was supposedly having a wee nap for those 2 centuries and woke up like a handful of years ago?
The amount of involuntary labor implied by the scale of his plans implies a much more authoritarian future than you'd expect when he's smooth talking you. Just another slavery option but your masters are robots dealing out quotas under threat of getting your power and water shut off rather than roman larpers.
>House positives:
-sustainability
-long-term plan, eventually humanity reaches the stars
-the Mojave has the power to remain an independent state vs the NCR/Legion as a proper buffer zone for civilized lands, gives NCR a reason to pull out and several scapegoats to stymie cultural decline
-Courier remains a trusted lieutenant to House and can lessen the negative impact of his autocracy as seen fit >House negatives:
-kills the Kings, Freeside becomes run by an iron Securitronic fist that doesn't care about the drug problem until they draw guns on others
-???
>Yesman positives:
-Independent Vegas
-Prosperity for remaining Strip families
-Kings can live and run Freeside while Yesman focuses elsewhere >Yesman negatives:
-The ending talks about how things won't last, that without an iron grip from the House Securitrons most of the environs remain bad or get exponentially worse beyond the Strip
-Vegas weakened, NCR or Legion will inevitably look back to the Mojave/never left
-Yesman becomes more "assertive" and will stop listening to the Courier immediately after the second battle fo the Dam
-even if he DID let the Courier rule, the Courier is a glorified mercenary/mailman, a grunt, a field worker, at most a battlefield commander/squad leader (IE companions) who lucked into being in their position
And the wiki didn't have the comment from Sawyer himself somewhere in the notes where he mentions that becoming more assertive implies becoming assertive enough to only obey the courier?
See this is the kind of embarassment you get for reading f*ndom. Cut it out, I'm telling you this for your own good, before you start talking on discord, wearing programming socks, taking dubious hormone pills, and having upwards of one emoticon per sentence in your posts.
I only said that I read it on the wiki because I know you're both arguing in bad faith and this thread is not worth my time. Something from outside the game doesn't count. Sawyer can cope all he wants, the game released as is. This is the last (you) I will give you.
That was just one aspect of your moronation. I didn't even feel like bothering posting your entirely worthless unbacked headcanon like >-even if he DID let the Courier rule, the Courier is a glorified mercenary/mailman, a grunt, a field worker, at most a battlefield commander/squad leader (IE companions) who lucked into being in their position
You barged in being a wrong moron and are now too ashamed to keep going while incorrect while too prideful to admit defeat so you reply with this low testosterone response of a shelterred zoomer raised by a lifetime of participation trophies.
House is a moron and his colonization plan is impossible
Where is he suddenly going to find all the educated engineers to actually put his plan into motion?
Dude's not a rocket scientist, he's a great businessman but you can't just make rockets happen by throwing wads of cash at a bunch of barely civilized tribals in a fancy suit
he's got no industrial base, no natural resources other than water, minuscule population and literally zero provisions for them
and there's literally only 1 place he can get any of that from: the NCR, but doing so will upend the power balance
The minute he needs the NCR more than the NCR needs them they're going to start altering the deals
he does not, his army can't defeat the NCR and it would be suicide for him to try
he has no means of replenishing his losses without access to the NCR's raw materials (catch 22 right there in a war innit) and hell, he doesn't actually have the means to build more securitrons
not only that but his control over them gets worse with distance and the NCR has a bunch of great scientists and engineers, how long do you think it'll take for them to put a jammer onto a vertibird and just cut out the connection to the army?
the entire point of the securitron army is NOT to be stronger than the NCR, House knows that's foolishness
it's to be strong enough that the NCR cannot politically justify hostile actions against Vegas
If the NCR were to turn fascist military dictatorship and devote all it's resources to conquering Vegas, Vegas would fall, pretty easily at that, but they're not a fascist military dictatorship
House could further fortify New Vegas, cut off NCR from power and water, and fight a defensive campaign. The sanctions would hurt a lot, and the Mojave is just an open desert so it'd be suicide to use infantry to assault fortified positions manned by Securitrons with missiles. The game is a bit vague how much if any heavy weapons anyone has, but supposedly artillery and tanks are rare. If they create anti-air manpad stations around the city they could prevent air assaults and drops too.
thing is, the NCR has power and water of it's own, it's not like they'd be crippled by the sanctions
however in turn, Vegas would be crippled by the NCR sanctioning them, 95% of their income comes from the NCR, without money House doesn't have mercenaries, without money his ex-tribal subjects are going to start becoming tribals again
he'd need to use his securitron forces to maintain internal stability as the entire city is now basically unemployed and starving
the NCR in theory has a lot more leverage over Vegas than the other way around, the thing that House rightfully banks on is that being a republic, they don't have the political will to go through a decade of hardship to destroy Vegas
and while artillery is sort of rare now, in case of fascist military dictatorship, there's not a whole lot preventing the NCR from ramping up the production of artillery pieces
they've got industrial levels of steel production, industrial levels of TNT production, a thriving arms industry and plenty of raw materials
a decade of military buildup and they've got enough early 20th century style artillery to flatten Vegas from a few miles out completely changing the dynamic of the conflict
Again, this won't happen because the NCR can't justify to it's political upper class and it's population to pull a stunt like that, but you do have to remember that the NCR during NV is not even remotely fighting at full capacity, they're engaged in several conflicts other than the Mojave at the same time

Thats a dumb prerequisite to add for no reason. Democracies and republics invade and conquer all the time.

Yes man is for when you frick up every other questline and lock yourself out of them. There's a reason he's one of the only unkillable NPCs. People who choose yes man consciously are complete morons. "I want the worst ending please, thanks!"

>Lmao, absolute seething >Yes Man is the ending for morons and your coping won't change that
Desu, Yes Man ending is going to be attractive for the two extreme sides of the bell curve. Any normal person should see the enormous weight of responsibility should they choose Yes Man and just resign it to one of the three main factions who are better prepared and equipped for such a massive undertaking as ruling an entire region. Some actual morons with the brains of 5-year olds will jump on it and think "HUEHUE I GET TO RULE NOW HAHAHA" and some actual high-IQ talented guys will also jump on that opportunity to rule, whether or not they've accurately assessed the outcomes.

>Yes Man ending is for people with actual leadership skills and people who actually have some sort of vision for the future
No, pic related is the perfect example of that.
It's about seeing a bunch of missed potential and asking yourself if you could turn that around and create something truly prosperous. In the right hands, the Institute could completely change the world if you think you could stop it from replacing people for god knows what reason and instead use the advanced food production and military might of the synths to either conquer the wasteland or develop it, along with life-extension technology and the capability to even restore the land to its former glory with synth animals at first and then who knows, anything's possible with their level of tech
I never even beat FO4 because I lost interest half-way through the game. >In the right hands, the Institute could completely change the world if you think you could stop it from replacing people for god knows what reason
I think I got to this point. I went to the institute, met my son, and there was no explanation as to why the FRICK they were doing what they were doing. Were they under the directive of aliens? Were they just mad scientists? I mean, fricking something, surely. What are they doing with all their resources and tech? Game was moronic and I stopped playing.
ah yes, I love playing games robotically doing every piece of content "optimally" even if it doesn't make sense for my character like it's a fricking MMO
People with actual leadership skills can choose Yes Man. If you believe 'Yes Man' ending is the same as an "everyone is fricked" ending, then at least you are humble enough to realize you are a moron or that you shouldn't be in charge of a small city-state.
Like I said, Yes Man ending is for people with actual leadership skills and people who actually have some sort of vision for the future. If you categorically exclude yourself then at least you are humble enough to understand your shortcomings.
You just end up working for yes man who upgrades himself so he can't be controlled, good job you're a moron.
I was doing an achievement run and needed to whack House with a golf club.
Also I had just completed all the DLCs for the first time and Ulysses convinced me that the courier has the power and will to be the best change for the wasteland
House is a dick. Ai is the best way to rule the world and you have years throughout which to program Yes Man into a National Socialist, leaving behind the perfect weapon to cleanse the wasteland of all subhuman filth long after you are gone to correct humanity and elevate it to be worthy of the stars. See House had the right idea, but he was still a capitalist.
You can literally give the order to Yes Man to send out robot hit squads to wipe out all the Black folk in your society and he'd carry it out with impeccable enthusiasm. Imagine how much "cleaning up" you could do with such a gift.
I hope you made the right choice and exterminated all of the White Legs instead of running away from Zion like a pussy, you wouldn't want to disappoint Randall Clark would you?
I fricking hate Daniel every time I play this DLC
I did the escape route one time for the achievement and then reloaded because he's such a homosexual cuck
Legion is unironically the best, most sustainable ending in the context of a post-apocalyptic wasteland >b-but da legion dies with Caesar!!
The Legion espouses long-term stability at all costs and Caesar would undoubtedly account for this. Add to this that he intends to incorporate NCR-esque long-term republic governance principles and policies, and you would effectively have a society akin to the literal Roman Republic which would last (at least) hundreds of years.
With that being said, I usually side with House anyway since he literally saved your life
The Legion is physically incapable of invading the NCR because they can't extend their supply lines that far
But they're caught in a catch 22, where if they don't challenge the NCR, they collapse on themselves as Lanius does not have what it takes to keep all the tribes unified
And yet if they do challenge the NCR, their entire army gets wiped out by hunger and thirst
Most people don't level Barter to 100, but try it next time, Lanius's barter conversation is drastically more interesting than his speech conversation
I chose Yes Man because it was the most ambiguous as to what the consequences would be. Sadly, the game just ends and all you see is some fake and gay slideshow. The game could have used another 5-6 hours of story.
personally I went Yes Man because I was purposefully fricking as much stuff up as possible so the wasteland is fricking miserable. It's also really funny to intentionally destroy the Securaton army while working for Yes Man to hear his programming forcibly try to justify why that was a good idea in the most exasperated voice.
It doesn't really need to be said, but Yes Man is both the "frick everyone else" and the "I've fricked every other route" option in one. It's for the guy who wants to play all the sides. Going for the best possible Yes Man ending is basically a fantasy but it's there for people who want it, I did it to see the world burn at the hands of a psycho courier looking for revenge.
There are a lot of replies and I'm too close to bed to read them, but the truest reality is that Yes Man is the most reasonable and fairest resolution (more or less the Mr. House resolution but it's you instead of an even more arrogant and corrupt and callous figure in charge, and you have the choice to spare some innocent lives) *and therefore* it's by far the most boring dogshit resolution and an absolute copout for people who don't like RPGs that ruins whatever intrugue the story had managed to build.
It's the route I felt compelled to choose the first couple of playthroughs. After that it finally hit, and it feels like a waste of a run every time since. The overall dilemma isn't nearly so exceptional or compelling as NV-exclusive-homosexuals felt it was, but the one thing about it that's clearly superior to most RPGs is that *outside of the WEAKEST, WORST ending* you only have a choice between very clearly imperfect resolutions. More games should have the balls, including this game. Yes Man was a halfassed worthless character who ruined his own game. The one and only good thing about him was that they were brilliant enough to have Dave Foley do his voice
My head canon is that yes man could be programmed to enforce rules that can only be changed if all factions within the area they police reach consensus via direct democratic votes, which would force everyone to collaborate/cooperate. I also finish quests in a way that gives each faction the ability to take care of themselves to reduce the need for any dependency that would translate into someone having power over them, whenever possible. Everyone is independent but also protected by a force who has to listen to all of them. Anarchist playthrough, is the short answer
NCR is a failed experiment at civilization. They are literally the same type of government and leadership structure that led to what the Fallout setting is in the first place (a nuclear wasteland). What is that famous line about the definition of insanity again?
House is kind of insane and he has no respect for you. He wants to lead humanity into a new scientific revolutionary age and conquer the stars and I guess that's fine if you share in his vision for society, but be prepared to be his loyal dog.
The Legion is just lol. If you are a thug who just wants to rape and pillage and be part of a system that legalizes your savagery then... ok.
I honestly think I can lead a city better than these three options.
It's amazing how focusing so much on the NCR and giving them so many missions is what proves them to be the worst option.
How the hell is it possible that in one of the most important bases they know there is a spy but no one has bothered to put someone in the only radio tower to watch? How is it possible that they have a fricking radio tower where there is never anyone?
>House is kind of insane and he has no respect for you
He respects you immensely for you competence, and as noted by the epilogue, actually takes pride in you and in the GECK notes it's said he sees you as a son
I never did a full House playthrough but I remember him talking down to you. I played New Vegas near the time of its release so the details are foggy but once I asked him a bunch of questions about a mission and he said something like, "Look, you don't need to know all this stuff. Just do what I told you." SOMETHING like that, and that put me off the idea of working with the guy. But I could be wrong about him too, I actually have New Vegas installed right now kek. Maybe I'll do a House and NCR run since since I've never done either of them fully.
>once I asked him a bunch of questions about a mission and he said something like, "Look, you don't need to know all this stuff. Just do what I told you."
That's when you ask him about the chip with low speech the first time you meet him. As you complete more and more tasks he will share more of the plan with you and becomes more willing to explain the details.
It's pretty boring tbh. It's short like a Legion playthrough and the only reward you get is money that you could get from way better sources. House is hilarious so that's kind of a saving grace but otherwise his questline is pretty bland

Not at all.
A Legion playthrough is short because it's mutually exclusive with an NCR one, House (and Yes Man) aren't, so you can just trudge along doing NCR quests that may or may not benefit them

There's a new mod out there that restores cut dialogue that lets tell House that since Caesar is expecting you blow up the bunker, he should do something to that effect, so he tells you that one of the generators is superfluous so just blow that.
It's pretty neat and solves a long hole in that quest's logic

Some anon explained it to me, and I was convinced.
Caesar can't send his own regular men because they're raised in ignorance of higher technology and to worship Caesar as divine
But he also can't send someone from the inner circle like Vulpes, because that's a valuable member to risk and when you think about it, that bunker is a unique thing, possibly incredible dangerous. With you being the only expert in the world of it, being the only person accepted in a similar place (the Lucky 38) in hundreds of years ago

I bet you think Oblivion is the height of roleplaying
House's quest line is extremely short and it very quickly locks you out of other quest lines which have interesting insights into the game's main factions, their leaders, their goals, their habitats.
If this was a movie/tv-show/book going by just House's quest line would be extremely boring to watch/read. Because it's a game, some plebs don't care about story and how, in what way and how much it is given to the player, like you OP, and it gets a pass from stupid people.
Anyway, the best way to play is to do NCR quests in the first half, before you reach New Vegas, learning more about that faction. Then switch to House in Vegas, do a bit of his bidding, and finally, switch to Legion, since they have the longest and most interesting questline post you getting the cheap. Quests like assassinating Kimbalt, Doing surgery on Ceaser (with fatal result), make it seem like though to the outside world you have chosen a faction, in reality you are playing a dangerous gamble of pretending to be for the Legion, all the while remaining loyal only to yourself and freeing Vegas of all the parasites fighting over it. Then the battle for Hoover Dam becomes your personal masterpiece, of how you managed to outsmart two major factions in the region and essentially became the leader of a small Vegas 'nation'.
Best playthrough is through Yes Man to achieve your personal victory, not being a literal courier for someone else's victory.
Legion is lol because once Caesar dies it will be rife will civil wars. It will ironically have all the same problems the original Roman Empire had with many pretenders to the throne. House predicted himself that the Legion will crumble without Caesar. The Legion isn't really the answer to the Fallout setting, the savagery and brutalism is just better organized.

>Being a good goy picking NCR

nahhh
>House refused to pay me more for the chippie
But he does pay you more. Have you not read your contract?
He offers to pay you four times the amount that you were supposed to receive without being asked.
I stopped working for House after he told me I could only destroy the brotherhood because they are "absurd". Not because I liked the brotherhood, but because that got rid of the illousion that House is uncorruptable and won't rule with an iron fist if he demands I destroy some random inbred bunker dwellers.
The brotherhood are cultishly devoted to the control and/or destruction of things like house. If I was going to build a nation, the first people I would annihilate would be the black Israelites, because they are diametrically opposed to white men in power. The brotherhood are essentially an elite strike force of incredibly well armed black Israelites
>because they are "absurd"
He explains it besides that though.
They're technofetishists that hoard advanced tech for themselves. House is cyborg with a robot army, you do the math.
To be fair, that just seems to be House's personal opinion of them. Realistically, they're still an active terrorist cult with heavy weaponry, living next to the second biggest power source in the Mojave.
Because I thought there would be some kind of agency in running everything myself. It’s not like the game tells you he is a “backup option.” How the frick was I supposed to know that on my first play through?
Cause I could run things a lot better than a lot of these fricking dumb asses. And I'm not a total fricking dickhole.

>You're gonna need to explain yourself, anon. Why?
Rebuilding humanity as it was before is a flawed, and quite frankly fricked up concept. Humanity needs to find a way to walk the path of redemption while experiencing the hardships of the wasteland they've created.
So in picking Yes Man, I'm creating yet another hazardous folly of Man's vision of the future, in hopes it can be another deterrent and reminder of the flames from which the newly rebuild world can remember the sins of those from before.
Yes man will turn into a psychopathic totalitarian dictator when I die, and the rest of humanity will have to find a way to rise up against the AI robot army.
I have all the achievements besides the legion quests/ending, the cuck ending to honest hearts, and playing caravan. Can't bring myself to do it, even if it's possible to get over with in an afternoon
Indepenedent is just mob run Vegas with you as the head of the mob.
Its heavily implied You Will Own Nothing and Yes Man will run the show
Independent Vegas losers got bamboozled hard by the AI
'Word of God' says you are meant to interpret that line as Yes Man figuring out his programming so that if someone asks him to overthrow you he doesn't just say yes.
Direct quote is that "He's still yes man, but he's your yes man."
I chose Caesar because his idea of ramming the Legion into the NCR and making the Roman republic sounded like it would be kind of fun.
I would choose caesar more often but NCR has like 3x the content
That said I usually stretch every faction as far as I possibly can before having to start cleansing. You can get pretty far playing all sides. Man I love this game
It is in fact a content issue. Still shocked by how playing 'morally' a lot of what Caesar has you do is evil. Real ends justify the means hours.
word of god sucks ass the only thing that matters about a piece of writing is the writing itself
Going with Yes Man is the only way you can one-up Ulysses in his little rants, it's still heavily coded as the good ending in the game itself
>Going with Yes Man is the only way you can one-up Ulysses in his little rants,
Nope, one upping Ulysses is denying everything he says and then killing him.
The moment you engage with a crazy person you already lost.
>it's still heavily coded as the good ending in the game itself
I think clearly isn't. The NCR is. Even nonsensically at times
It matters when it's clarifying a slightly ambiguous facet of the text. It's not like he came out and said house was actually gay the whole time or that the NCR is an allegory for AIDS.
>It matters when it's clarifying a slightly ambiguous facet of the text
wrong
if it was written to be ambigious it should stay ambigious
and rowling said that hermione could be black, nobody cares, should've written your game less ambiguously
Fricking wrong holy shit.
That ending Yes Man line about updating himself to be more assertive was confirmed to have just meant he'd only take orders from you instead of any schmuck off the street.
>so cucked he can never see himself in a position of power and instead seeks to submit to someone "smarter" or "better" and even in a situation when power is his for the taking, would create made up reasons for why taking it is a bad thing or wouldn't work out
It's all over for you, unironically.
>see himself in a position of power
But you don't have one
Yes Man controls the securitrons
Yes Man is immortal
Yes Man has access to House's entire network and can be everywhere all the time
You're nothing but a puppet
Yes Man is the courier's b***h so it evens out.
Imagine being wrong for thirteen straight years. Over a decade of reciting the exact same thing that was debunked by the author of the work almost immediately, and yet you hold onto it. Wrongly. For thirteen years. I don't know, bros, I think I'd kill myself if it happened to me.
Post your in-game sources
The game never implied that Yes Man is taking over. The line about Yes Man fixing the error in his programming implies he will now only obey your commands. You are all worthless stupid trash.
>No in-game sources
The house cuck recoils when faced with the truth
>the truth
>can't prove it
>tells you he is glitched
Nope. He tells you that's his nature and how he was programmed.
That's why you Yes Cucks are pathetic. Need to bullshit about the game abd rely on outside sources to pretend Yes Man isn't the moron's pick
You are genuinely stupid. A true moron. I hope you have the decency to have a nice day soon.
>Yes Man was originally a generic securitron robot programmed to work for Mr. House like all the other securitrons found on the Strip. He was recovered by Benny and several of the Chairmen after being damaged by a pulse grenade. Following this incident, Followers of the Apocalypse member Emily Ortal examined the securitron in order to learn Mr. House's secrets in exchange for reprogramming him for Benny's personal use.[1]
>The reprogramming was extensive, and resulted in Yes Man being designed to do exactly as he is told; thus, Yes Man is not just the program's name, it's also his job description. Yes Man is completely incapable of declining any order or withholding any information he is asked for, no matter who he is interacting with. Benny's plan was to dispose of Mr. House and install Yes Man's A.I. onto the Lucky 38 mainframe, putting Yes Man (and by extension, himself) in control of all the securitrons on the Strip. Yes Man's main objective was to use his connection to Mr. Houses' internal databases and feed valuable information to Benny so that he could stay one step ahead of House.[2]
Yes Man was not meant to follow orders from everyone. It's a busted/reprogrammed unit. I played this game 10 years ago and I remember these details, but genuine trash like you probably can't even figure out what 2+2 is.

Lol, another L for Yes Cucks
See, there's zero mention of a "glitch", he was made that way
Literally any moron can oust you by just asking Yes Man
>I played this game 10 years ago
With how wrong you got things I'd have guessed 20, but that would be impossible
I said Yes Man was glitched but really he was reprogrammed by one of House's enemies. That detail doesn't really matter though and that wasn't the main issue we were talking about. Yes Man fixed the problem of him taking orders from just anyone. He doesn't trick you and take over New Vegas.
Talking to you is worthless though. I can tell you have severely low IQ and aren't really worth the time. Josh Sawyer himself confirmed that's what the ending was. If that's not "proof" enough for you then... who cares what you think anyway? You're just an idiot.
>I said Yes Man was glitched but really he was reprogrammed by one of House's enemies. That detail doesn't really matter though
>I was completely wrong. That detail doesn't matter though.
Lol
Smartest and more honest Yes Cuck
>Yes Man fixed the problem of him taking orders from just anyone
How? He says he found "snippets of code" in House's "databanks". How could that possibly be something that fits his unique nature when House didn't know he existed? How does this code allow him to be assertive enough to not roll over for anyone but not take over? How does it know to limit itself?
This why Yes Man is the choice for the stupidest of all morons. He's a gamey option there for players to finish the game if they ever killed every npc and yet moronic morons still take him seriously as an option
Even though he can easily betray you like he did Benny, with your single solitary evidence against it being a nonsensical line of dialogue, right at the end that you can't even take at face value and had to go to outside sources for it.
>Josh Sawyer himself confirmed that's what the ending was
Then why isn't this in the game? Plus, John Gonzalez wrote Yes Man dialogue you fat frick

Hahaha what a moron
In-game, Yes Man tells you he is glitched and improperly follows orders from everyone when he's only meant to serve House. The Courier (or YOU) decide to use this against House. If you are paying any attention to the game then you should understand "Hmmm... I used Yes Man to defeat House and to take over New Vegas, but what is to stop someone else from using Yes Man against me?" That is what that line is meant for. The glitch is fixed. He will be "assertive" and say no to the next butthole that decides to use him, against you, or for any purpose at all.
You are nothing but a worthless moron.
>ok yes man right away
>ill do whatever you say yes man

That is not how the game goes at all. You're just a mentally ill piece of trash.
You just hate him because he spoke the truth

it's the thinking mans choice, why should I obey some homosexual faction and get them to rule when I could be the one ruling the world alone how I see fit
You don't rule the world, dipshit, you plunge the Mojave into anarchy and take over house's role as owner of the strip, just without the genius and vision. Frick off with your fan fiction, homosexual.
Technically if you are a genius then the courier is a genius. If you have an idea or a vision for society than the courier does too. NPC humans can't understand this.
It's not in the text. Work from what's in the text or frick off. You don't get to play dynamite in rock paper scissors, and you don't get to play muh INT 100 messiah moralgay courier would make star trek gay space gommunism with his magic army.
Also
>if you're a genius the courier is too
You're not, clearly. Plus
>self insert
>You're not, clearly
Speak for yourself, trash.
>It's not in the text. Work from what's in the text or frick off. You don't get to play dynamite in rock paper scissors
It's an RPG. I can add things in between the text. My courier took over NV and set up Securitron hit squads to kill all the Black folk and transgenders and you can't tell me that it's not what I did.
>It's an RPG. I can add things in between the text
Lol, no
Otherwise my ending is that the Kings take over the Mojave because they discover that Godzilla, long since slumbering beneath the waters of lake mead, responds positively to Elvis Presley's music, so with a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound, he lays waste to the waste land
Dunning-Kruger effect in full force, huh
Stop using terms you clearly don't know the meaning of
>I have genius intellect
>I would simply burn resources and man power to employ racial genocide instead of sterilizing and enslaving the subhumans and putting them to use.
A moron thinking he's smart
>>I have genius intellect
When did I state this?
>>I would simply burn resources and man power to employ racial genocide
Godzilla doesn't kill based off race, are you moronic?
I was referring to the moron you were replying to, bud.
Then though I apologize for the harsh words, I remain baffled why you replied to me and not him
When you're watching a schizo shit in the street, you don't say shit to him, you say shit to the other normals watching him.
Fair enough
I have no strong aspirations to rule Vegas myself or whatever. I just thought the robot was cute and I wanted to help him.
>Why?
Frick authority.
>reads just like a lfd safe room wall
kek
What kind of person calls l4d lfd?
I wanted to frick over three armies, take all the money and ride off into the sunset
With the DLC you can pretty much cripple everyone
>you can destroy the I-80 outpost and Dry Wells, leading to a top Legion camp being decimated and the entrance to the Mojave closed
>Murder Caesar, Prez kimball, Lanius, mr. House, General Oliver,
>Destroy the securitron robots for no reason
You can walk away with every single faction a shell of themselves and no one single faction strong enough.
And if you feel like it, go with the Masters of the Madre mod
Is that the one where the ending with an ally Elijah is canon and you just turn Mojave into one giant Sierra Madre? Would it have any actual quests where you work with Elijah, or is it just a red haze everywhere?
you help him reclaim helios and use the repconn rockets to spread the cloud (as long as you haven't helped the bright brotherhood)
All the gay over intellectualising over what the best choice is like this homosexual
but Conan-brain is actually the best argument for independent Vegas
>SKIBIDI SKIBIDI YES YES
I think that's all that needs said
I like keeping the Brotherhood alive and no way I'm joing the NCR, that's for gays and redditors.
troony on Discord wouldn't stop responding with Mr. House react images so I played devil's advocate and called him a troony and got kicked out.
I CHOOSE A GOOD GAME
Based
SIRS!
New Vegas is a better game though. Fallout 3 has shit-tier writing for sub 90 iqs.
>Fallout 3 has shit-tier writing for sub 90 iqs.
You are talking to a pajeet, so yes, FO3 was in fact made for him.
I just wanted all the achievements. Now I'm on my twentieth Legion playthrough, have still yet to complete Hardcore mode.
>have still yet to complete Hardcore mode.
Honestly hardcore mode is more irritating than actually challenging. Having even a decent survival skill absolutely fricking trivializes it.
I like eating and drinking for immersion and more use to them (can't remember if new vegas has Well Fed bonuses too)
Also I find it essential for ammo weight and stimpack HoT
i'm playing hardcore right now and it's been pretty much trivial even without survival so far lol
Hardcore is only good because of the limb crippling and the ammo weight. Makes it less braindead to just hoard ammo and stimpacks. Shoulda made it so stims and other drugs weigh shit as well.
People say the start is hard but
just buy the stash DLCs
Yeah no shit. Same for every “survival mode” in any video game. Just a bunch of annoying shit you have to deal with.
I remember a youtuber used this character in his video-essay and went back and forth between his persona and this thing. It made me want to kms
for the lulz
Mr House gives you all the luxuries in Vegas, without any of the responsabilities of command. Sure, he might rule the place as a dictator, but that's not my problem. I'll be on Gomorrah snorting jet off a hooker's breasts.
I still feel the securitron army is too small and static to serve all of the Mojave's military needs. Sure, guards, grunt soldiers, large formation assaults? But they need an elite. Since the Courier was so damn good, I'm sure they would be tasked with forming an elite squad (they could easily be the companions you pick up) of mercs and soldiers to serve House.
Didn't the vault have a larger army of them as well as the software upgrade? You only need a small number of enhanced bots roaming the wastelands to keep everything locked down. No need to worry about feeding an army or where their loyalties lie
Oh sure, ther'es like 1-2 thousand of them so that's quite a lot. But anyone well equipped could take them out if they wanted to in single combat. How would it handle a gurella terrorist campaign? They're not very intelligent and House would have to micro-manage them. They would only be good for standard threats like junkies, hobos, raiders, rather than anything sophisticated.
>teams shows up with 50 Cal Anti-material rifle and pulse grenades
>Securitron squad is taken out before it can reach them, and those that too are disabled
To be honest, who in the wasteland would have that kind of tech? The BoS does, but that's why House has you take them out of the picture before his ending.
ncr could if they really wanted but most factions would correctly guess that it wouldn't be worth the effort.
fighting thousands of military bots coming from a well defended place is a war no sane government would fight
>A couple thousand large robots with missile and grenade launchers and self-repair protocols are no big deal, someone could totally 1v1 them
>Since the Courier was so damn good, I'm sure they would be tasked with forming an elite squad
I've always thought a House second in command Courier would refound the Desert Rangers.
It's just a perfect opportunity. You have the funding, the elite/recon ops they're specialized in is the sorta thing securitrons can't do and you got yourself a perfect training ground/armor deposit in the Divide
In a decade you can yourself and the finest commandos the wasteland could produce
Boone would be ideal to head that, the elite snipers. With those funds, you could poach elites from the NCR and other factions too.
I think Boone is too much of a patriot for it. But you could definitely poach a lot from the NCR rangers. The Unification Treaty was only 10 years ago, so one can definitely see the old guard leaving because the NCR simply can't protect Nevada as it was accorded.
Promising youngsters too, more likely to be attracted to better pay, equipment and a harsher training
Downside is that House has a super computer running probabilities at all times (The House Always Wins). It's possible he'd see you as a threat to be eliminated if you get too good.
>I think Boone is too much of a patriot for it.
I think he'd resign if there was ever a Vegas vs. NCR war, but otherwise he'd be game. It's mostly keeping the peace, and special op missions against NCR, Raider factions, and other chucklefricks he has no qualms about genociding.
>Boone, we got word of a large slaver camp 15 km behind Legion lines. Our mission is to rescue the people, and wipe out the operation. This will severly cripple Legion slaver operations. You game?
>It's possible he'd see you as a threat to be eliminated if you get too good.
I don't think so. He picked you because of your almost supernatural competence, plus, one of House's flaws is his inability to see the other guy perspective, that's why he was blindsided by Benny's betrayal, because logically thinking House raised Benny from a tribal to the second most important man in a city that's uniquely rich and powerful in the wasteland, he made him his executor and rewarded him well, he literally couldn't see that Benny so would want more because it's not logical or practical, ie what House would do.
>I think he'd resign if there was ever a Vegas vs. NCR war, but otherwise he'd be game
True, but that's part of the problem. While open war would be unlikely, tensions and operations against the NCR would definitely happen, and you can't have your second in command more loyal to another nation
>to the second most important man
I believe he's "just" the head of the Chairman, which puts him on par with the head of the other families.
I think he was more than that. He seems on closer terms with House and had to know about the chip first somehow, so it looked like he was your predecessor as House's main agent
I don't think there's anything that implies he's anything other than the head of the Chairmen. he only gets focus because he's more story related as your rival and usurper to House. He would have gotten info on the chip from Yes man like he got everything else. Before Yes Man he was just another head of the 3 families, which have equal power over their own affairs and are subservient to House.
Not him but I do believe House mentions that he did want to make Benny his personal henchman until he went rogue.
Whatever way Mr. House runs it one thing is clear: it will survive, the people will survive.
Any other choice is putting New Vegas on a coin toss
Indepent ending says only the strong and ruthless survive in Nevada. The start of a brand new order just like Armstrong wanted in MGR.
Um akchually, jet is an injectable drug, not a powder.
I can snort jet if I want.
You're not my boss.
Jet comes in an inhaler
actually i usurped caesar to become lord of all slaves
He's Italian, I'll never trust a Shitalian ANYTHING.
NCR turned wildcard Yesman
>"Would you like to have the general thrown off the dam?"
>"Yes"
the lack of De Jeure rule and rule of law is a bit disturbing in House's world. Sure, he's no mad dictator and wishes to foucs on his projects of rebuilding Vegas to get the industry going, to then get space flight and world colonization going. But... he effectively just hands out Death Sentences to the Courier like candy for factions that only mildly or theoretically oppose him. Most players will try to end them peacefully, but still, that's only the intervention of the Courier's good hearted nature.
His system seems more akin to China or Singapore than anything. Oppose him and die, or ignore him and you can do what you want.
Mr house sucks dick and im tired of all the house dick riding. If he was so great, how come he just didn’t upgrade the robots himself instead of needing the platinum chip?
Mr House can get you sexbots though. Think about it logically
homie in the legion can just kidnap women to keep as sex slaves. imagine fricking sex toys even in a videogame lmao
>STD ridden wasteland bawds hooked up on jet
Yeah, no thanks.
Also, you're wrong. Legion don't get to run around raping women and any that do would be killed. The rules are weird like that, burning and crucifixion = okay, giving into your horny brain = not okay.
They know the truth
>"I've heard they don't allow women in their military, considering them nothing more than breeding stock"
they literally have child quotas to reproduce as much as possible, what do you think female slaves are for? not rape?
>heard
Also yes, rape, but not in the way of running around fricking who they want. You will be assigned your slavegirl and if she's a fat prostitute you will be happy
Mr house is just Elon and his fans are like musk’s
I prefer House, but I respect the Evil Courier that just wants total anarchy, so does a Yes Man ending with no securitron army
I wanted the achievement for doing it, thats all
The best outcome for the Mojave is the one where it becomes strategically worthless. Therefor, the best path is Yes Man with the Hoover Dam being sabotaged.
>thread about new vegas discussing the choices, not a single troll making it about trannies
>AI threads currently spammed to the brim
really makes you think about who the shitters on the board are huh?
I made some Fallout AI slop.
>Bethesdaslop suit
>T-51B helmet
The AI can't into distinct models. the T-51 is the most common helmet thanks to the cover art of Fallout 1 and 2, but it seems to pull body shots from Bethesda's stuff.
I made some stuff the other day myself.
missing the wonderbread.
me in the background
House had embraced robosexuality, which is an abomination.
A man chooses.
A slave obeys.
When will the Enclave get the content it deserves? Auld Lang Syne showed how there were "good" people in the Enclave. Stop showing them as le ebil fascists and lets get some depth to the storytelling here.
I would rather they just got sided after Fallout 2 but Bethesda had to bring back what they thought as le icons
I agree but I think a prequel game could be cool
The enclave is done but I think a faction formed out of the many enclave remnants that weren't totally on board with the 'gas the mutants, race war now' agenda of the oil rig guys would work.
Eh they already did that with BoS and the outcasts
Ya and they kind of fumbled the ball. Fo3 enclave wanted the exact same outcome as the BoS just with them in control because Col. Old South didn't trust anyone else in control, and President Computer's idea was just 'gas the mutants, race war now' again.
Was anyone in the remnants even conventionally "good" besides Arc**t Gaynon? They were all Enclave soldiers, I figure they're more of an "I was just following orders" demographic rather than good people.
Morally neutral with the chance to be redeemed rather than the snarling evil of F3.
They seem to still just be doing what they're told when you get a hold of them and there are like 2 c**ts with personal grudges. Soulless goyim the way I see them. No principles, no views, no morals, only work.
Drain the casinos and blow it all up
I want everything for myself
He's nice to me ;_;
There's literally no reason New Vegas can't have a population of 100,000 to 1,000,000 other than game engine limiations. It's implied to be in the low thousands (you can't visit the majority of the buildings). With free access to power and water, there's no reason you wouldn't get immigrants, and with the local rock quary you could start making proper buildings and cement. Even simple cement buildings could house hundreds each.
The pop then could be used for administration, services, tech industry, you name it. Then the water used for surrounding farmland.
You have a recipe for a reasonably sized Republic, which given the scale of the setting means it'd rival the NCR.
Any word on NCR population? I only imagine a few million themselves.
>Then the water used for surrounding farmland.
There aint no surrounding farmland
There's a bunch of quests of the NCR trying and finding out the same thing people have been finding out for thousands of years: can't farm shit in a desert
I like NV so much I retired at big MT and didn't choose a side.
I wanted to be king of the wasteland
I didn't, I'm not reddit. The House always wins.
Yes.
I'm with the Brotherhood and it's the only reasonable way to get the city (and more importantly, the securitons) under their thumb.
Yeah I know there's no way to actually hand the city over to the boys in-game but frick you.
I'm just better than everyone.
People kept talking how absurd it was to send a squadron of vertibirds to save some mailman in the Frontier, but now that I think about, this is a game where every major faction sends you to wipe out AN ENTIRE CHAPTER of the Brotherhood on your own and expects you to succeed. No platoon of foot soldiers for backup, no small party of elite operatives, no attempt at helping out with a covert op, just go ahead and figure out how to wipe out A CHAPTER of lunatics with some of the most advanced military hardware in existence. You're the protagonist after all.
And if I can do that, who are you to tell me I can't run a nation when some moron beef jerky in a test tube supposedly can?
it’s the only choice
didn't actually care about the lore LOL think I chose NCR since they were the first guys I ran into I don't pay attention to the factions I just sent ghouls to space since I'm AWESOME
there’s ire there sure alot of comments in there don’t know if it is bad or not you know and things like that popular or not not not and hingmslike that and thing alike thaqt not sure if it is bad or not you know and things like t and things like that and thing ksksk that you know and thing slkek that sn thing kskks that
Wild card ruined the discussion of endings. Instead of actually taking about the three defined factions and ideologies you just have fricking morons come in and say their super OC courier 6 will go wild card and make a utopia and because it's open ended you can't actually tell them that's bullshit.
>My plan?
>Well that's simple
>I'll send everyone to space and we'll colonize somewhere else!
That's your grand master plan? I'd respect it if he was like "I'll try to find a geck and wait until the radiation eventually dissipates" but no he's just gonna try to explore space, somehow
He loses me with his end-game, which is too abstract and ignores the problems of the here and now. He has a slum literally 1km from his HQ and he just seems to ignore it? Yeah, it's NCR controlled and it's NCR squatters who are mostly the slum people, so it's NCR's problem, but other than a cursory reference to him hiring the Followers to provide medical care, he doesn't seem to care much for the plight of most people.
Why does he scream that hespent 2 centuries searching for le cheep if he was supposedly having a wee nap for those 2 centuries and woke up like a handful of years ago?
The amount of involuntary labor implied by the scale of his plans implies a much more authoritarian future than you'd expect when he's smooth talking you. Just another slavery option but your masters are robots dealing out quotas under threat of getting your power and water shut off rather than roman larpers.
Easy, I'm not moronic.
>House positives:
-sustainability
-long-term plan, eventually humanity reaches the stars
-the Mojave has the power to remain an independent state vs the NCR/Legion as a proper buffer zone for civilized lands, gives NCR a reason to pull out and several scapegoats to stymie cultural decline
-Courier remains a trusted lieutenant to House and can lessen the negative impact of his autocracy as seen fit
>House negatives:
-kills the Kings, Freeside becomes run by an iron Securitronic fist that doesn't care about the drug problem until they draw guns on others
-???
>Yesman positives:
-Independent Vegas
-Prosperity for remaining Strip families
-Kings can live and run Freeside while Yesman focuses elsewhere
>Yesman negatives:
-The ending talks about how things won't last, that without an iron grip from the House Securitrons most of the environs remain bad or get exponentially worse beyond the Strip
-Vegas weakened, NCR or Legion will inevitably look back to the Mojave/never left
-Yesman becomes more "assertive" and will stop listening to the Courier immediately after the second battle fo the Dam
-even if he DID let the Courier rule, the Courier is a glorified mercenary/mailman, a grunt, a field worker, at most a battlefield commander/squad leader (IE companions) who lucked into being in their position
>I'm not moronic
>Is, in fact, moronic
???
>kills the Kings
you do know that he spares them if they go to war against the NCR right?
No I just read about the ending on the wiki
And the wiki didn't have the comment from Sawyer himself somewhere in the notes where he mentions that becoming more assertive implies becoming assertive enough to only obey the courier?
See this is the kind of embarassment you get for reading f*ndom. Cut it out, I'm telling you this for your own good, before you start talking on discord, wearing programming socks, taking dubious hormone pills, and having upwards of one emoticon per sentence in your posts.
I only said that I read it on the wiki because I know you're both arguing in bad faith and this thread is not worth my time. Something from outside the game doesn't count. Sawyer can cope all he wants, the game released as is. This is the last (you) I will give you.
That was just one aspect of your moronation. I didn't even feel like bothering posting your entirely worthless unbacked headcanon like
>-even if he DID let the Courier rule, the Courier is a glorified mercenary/mailman, a grunt, a field worker, at most a battlefield commander/squad leader (IE companions) who lucked into being in their position
You barged in being a wrong moron and are now too ashamed to keep going while incorrect while too prideful to admit defeat so you reply with this low testosterone response of a shelterred zoomer raised by a lifetime of participation trophies.
House is a moron and his colonization plan is impossible
Where is he suddenly going to find all the educated engineers to actually put his plan into motion?
Dude's not a rocket scientist, he's a great businessman but you can't just make rockets happen by throwing wads of cash at a bunch of barely civilized tribals in a fancy suit
he's got no industrial base, no natural resources other than water, minuscule population and literally zero provisions for them
and there's literally only 1 place he can get any of that from: the NCR, but doing so will upend the power balance
The minute he needs the NCR more than the NCR needs them they're going to start altering the deals
He has the strongest army in the world. He can just straight up conquer the NCR.
he does not, his army can't defeat the NCR and it would be suicide for him to try
he has no means of replenishing his losses without access to the NCR's raw materials (catch 22 right there in a war innit) and hell, he doesn't actually have the means to build more securitrons
not only that but his control over them gets worse with distance and the NCR has a bunch of great scientists and engineers, how long do you think it'll take for them to put a jammer onto a vertibird and just cut out the connection to the army?
the entire point of the securitron army is NOT to be stronger than the NCR, House knows that's foolishness
it's to be strong enough that the NCR cannot politically justify hostile actions against Vegas
If the NCR were to turn fascist military dictatorship and devote all it's resources to conquering Vegas, Vegas would fall, pretty easily at that, but they're not a fascist military dictatorship
House could further fortify New Vegas, cut off NCR from power and water, and fight a defensive campaign. The sanctions would hurt a lot, and the Mojave is just an open desert so it'd be suicide to use infantry to assault fortified positions manned by Securitrons with missiles. The game is a bit vague how much if any heavy weapons anyone has, but supposedly artillery and tanks are rare. If they create anti-air manpad stations around the city they could prevent air assaults and drops too.
thing is, the NCR has power and water of it's own, it's not like they'd be crippled by the sanctions
however in turn, Vegas would be crippled by the NCR sanctioning them, 95% of their income comes from the NCR, without money House doesn't have mercenaries, without money his ex-tribal subjects are going to start becoming tribals again
he'd need to use his securitron forces to maintain internal stability as the entire city is now basically unemployed and starving
the NCR in theory has a lot more leverage over Vegas than the other way around, the thing that House rightfully banks on is that being a republic, they don't have the political will to go through a decade of hardship to destroy Vegas
and while artillery is sort of rare now, in case of fascist military dictatorship, there's not a whole lot preventing the NCR from ramping up the production of artillery pieces
they've got industrial levels of steel production, industrial levels of TNT production, a thriving arms industry and plenty of raw materials
a decade of military buildup and they've got enough early 20th century style artillery to flatten Vegas from a few miles out completely changing the dynamic of the conflict
Again, this won't happen because the NCR can't justify to it's political upper class and it's population to pull a stunt like that, but you do have to remember that the NCR during NV is not even remotely fighting at full capacity, they're engaged in several conflicts other than the Mojave at the same time
I wanna see some actual NCR robots and I know they were scrapped from Mccarran in FNV but they really should have repurposed robots from their war with the Enclave or just engineers and technicians who were able to work on the ones found in Vaults or throughout the wastes.
>If the NCR were to turn fascist military dictatorship and devote all it's resources to conquering Vegas, Vegas would fall, pretty easily at that, but they're not a fascist military dictatorship
Thats a dumb prerequisite to add for no reason. Democracies and republics invade and conquer all the time.
Minuscule population indeed. I could never get over just how small new vegas is in game. It feels like a village.
Is that Flowey
Because my last playthrough was an evil selfish cowboy
Caeser is a homosexual and wanted to control me, I said frick him after he disrespected me
I also slaughtered the NCR for crossing into my turf, Vegas is mine
Anyways, how bad do you all think Vegas was when the bombs dropped?
>Anyways, how bad do you all think Vegas was when the bombs dropped?
About comparable to how things will be in about 14 hours from now
...what?
HE HAS THE LAUNCH CODES YOU MORON, FIND SHELTER WHILE YOU STILL CAN.
Yes man is for when you frick up every other questline and lock yourself out of them. There's a reason he's one of the only unkillable NPCs. People who choose yes man consciously are complete morons. "I want the worst ending please, thanks!"
>Yes man is for when you frick up every other questline and lock yourself out of them. There's a reason he's one of the only unkillable NPCs. People who choose yes man consciously are complete morons. "I want the worst ending please, thanks!"
Lmao, absolute seething
Yes Man is the ending for morons and your coping won't change that
Like I said, Yes Man ending is for people with actual leadership skills and people who actually have some sort of vision for the future. If you categorically exclude yourself then at least you are humble enough to understand your shortcomings.
>Like I said, Yes Man ending is for people who are moronic, because it's the failsafe ending
Lol
>Literally everyone is a moronic beta like me. There are no exceptional human beings. You have to be a cuck like me. You cannot see any flaws with how the NCR, House, or the Legion will run things, you have to choose one of them be subservient to them.
Gay
You are probably just a short, ugly, moronic guy irl who no one would ever love, be inspired by, or follow. Don't be angry. You are right for never considering Yes Man as a real ending (for you).
Actually I'm tall but you're right about the others
everyone is a moronic beta like me. There are no exceptional human beings. You have to be a cuck like me
>t. chose Yes Man
Ok, ugly.
>Ok, ugly.
If I was ugly I'd have picked Yes Man

>Like I said, Yes Man ending is for people who are moronic because it's the failsafe ending ending
Desu, Yes Man ending is going to be attractive for the two extreme sides of the bell curve. Any normal person should see the enormous weight of responsibility should they choose Yes Man and just resign it to one of the three main factions who are better prepared and equipped for such a massive undertaking as ruling an entire region. Some actual morons with the brains of 5-year olds will jump on it and think "HUEHUE I GET TO RULE NOW HAHAHA" and some actual high-IQ talented guys will also jump on that opportunity to rule, whether or not they've accurately assessed the outcomes.
>responsibility
I have an army of missile-shooting robots I can do what I want
>Some actual morons with the brains of 5-year olds will jump on it and think "HUEHUE I GET TO RULE NOW HAHAHA"
Your point?
Even a newborn baby would be a massive threat if it was surrounded by a thousand killer robots
My point was that I already included people like you in my post here
>Yes Man ending is for people with actual leadership skills and people who actually have some sort of vision for the future
No, pic related is the perfect example of that.
It's about seeing a bunch of missed potential and asking yourself if you could turn that around and create something truly prosperous. In the right hands, the Institute could completely change the world if you think you could stop it from replacing people for god knows what reason and instead use the advanced food production and military might of the synths to either conquer the wasteland or develop it, along with life-extension technology and the capability to even restore the land to its former glory with synth animals at first and then who knows, anything's possible with their level of tech
I never even beat FO4 because I lost interest half-way through the game.
>In the right hands, the Institute could completely change the world if you think you could stop it from replacing people for god knows what reason
I think I got to this point. I went to the institute, met my son, and there was no explanation as to why the FRICK they were doing what they were doing. Were they under the directive of aliens? Were they just mad scientists? I mean, fricking something, surely. What are they doing with all their resources and tech? Game was moronic and I stopped playing.
JFC these mongoloids were growing synthetic GORILLAS instead of cows and horses. They deserve nothing but getting PRIME'D
>Lmao, absolute seething
>Yes Man is the ending for morons and your coping won't change that
ah yes, I love playing games robotically doing every piece of content "optimally" even if it doesn't make sense for my character like it's a fricking MMO
People with actual leadership skills can choose Yes Man. If you believe 'Yes Man' ending is the same as an "everyone is fricked" ending, then at least you are humble enough to realize you are a moron or that you shouldn't be in charge of a small city-state.
I might have actual leadership skills but that doesn't mean my character does, after all Charisma's a dump stat
95% of people shouldn't choose Yes Man. But around 5% may have a positive/alright outcome with it.
somebody needs to photoshop those mentally ill wojaks as Yes Man and the Courier in that photo
basedjacks are representative of midwits, pretty much the opposite of the Yes Man route, you literal low iq trash.
You just end up working for yes man who upgrades himself so he can't be controlled, good job you're a moron.
Of course I did. How else can I save my bois the Kings? The moment he said they had to go he had to go.
I'm not helping a guy named Bob
I like screwing over everyone. They were all mean to me.
I didn't but I only chose him because I like Dave Foley and Kids in the Hall.
?t=17
IT'S YES MAM!
The entire Mojave should be glassed, and Yes-Man is the best chance of that happening.
Because I want to be the dictator of new Vegas
baby, i'm an anarchist.
I was doing an achievement run and needed to whack House with a golf club.
Also I had just completed all the DLCs for the first time and Ulysses convinced me that the courier has the power and will to be the best change for the wasteland
House is a dick. Ai is the best way to rule the world and you have years throughout which to program Yes Man into a National Socialist, leaving behind the perfect weapon to cleanse the wasteland of all subhuman filth long after you are gone to correct humanity and elevate it to be worthy of the stars. See House had the right idea, but he was still a capitalist.
You can literally give the order to Yes Man to send out robot hit squads to wipe out all the Black folk in your society and he'd carry it out with impeccable enthusiasm. Imagine how much "cleaning up" you could do with such a gift.
He really is best robot.
>tfw no assaultron frame for Yes Man to sex
I hope you made the right choice and exterminated all of the White Legs instead of running away from Zion like a pussy, you wouldn't want to disappoint Randall Clark would you?
I fricking hate Daniel every time I play this DLC
I did the escape route one time for the achievement and then reloaded because he's such a homosexual cuck
I was playing a selfish, self-centered character.
>he actually follows through with his own IRL political beliefs in a fricking RPG
lmao
>frick the whole region beyond repair
>leave
Legion is unironically the best, most sustainable ending in the context of a post-apocalyptic wasteland
>b-but da legion dies with Caesar!!
The Legion espouses long-term stability at all costs and Caesar would undoubtedly account for this. Add to this that he intends to incorporate NCR-esque long-term republic governance principles and policies, and you would effectively have a society akin to the literal Roman Republic which would last (at least) hundreds of years.
With that being said, I usually side with House anyway since he literally saved your life
The Legion is physically incapable of invading the NCR because they can't extend their supply lines that far
But they're caught in a catch 22, where if they don't challenge the NCR, they collapse on themselves as Lanius does not have what it takes to keep all the tribes unified
And yet if they do challenge the NCR, their entire army gets wiped out by hunger and thirst
Most people don't level Barter to 100, but try it next time, Lanius's barter conversation is drastically more interesting than his speech conversation
>bending the knee to a decrepit popsicle
Why would you ever?
I chose Yes Man because it was the most ambiguous as to what the consequences would be. Sadly, the game just ends and all you see is some fake and gay slideshow. The game could have used another 5-6 hours of story.
If it is as they say that house always wins, why not become the house yourselfe??.
personally I went Yes Man because I was purposefully fricking as much stuff up as possible so the wasteland is fricking miserable. It's also really funny to intentionally destroy the Securaton army while working for Yes Man to hear his programming forcibly try to justify why that was a good idea in the most exasperated voice.
It doesn't really need to be said, but Yes Man is both the "frick everyone else" and the "I've fricked every other route" option in one. It's for the guy who wants to play all the sides. Going for the best possible Yes Man ending is basically a fantasy but it's there for people who want it, I did it to see the world burn at the hands of a psycho courier looking for revenge.
I wanted New Vegas to be a crime ridden shithole like New Reno.
There are a lot of replies and I'm too close to bed to read them, but the truest reality is that Yes Man is the most reasonable and fairest resolution (more or less the Mr. House resolution but it's you instead of an even more arrogant and corrupt and callous figure in charge, and you have the choice to spare some innocent lives) *and therefore* it's by far the most boring dogshit resolution and an absolute copout for people who don't like RPGs that ruins whatever intrugue the story had managed to build.
It's the route I felt compelled to choose the first couple of playthroughs. After that it finally hit, and it feels like a waste of a run every time since. The overall dilemma isn't nearly so exceptional or compelling as NV-exclusive-homosexuals felt it was, but the one thing about it that's clearly superior to most RPGs is that *outside of the WEAKEST, WORST ending* you only have a choice between very clearly imperfect resolutions. More games should have the balls, including this game. Yes Man was a halfassed worthless character who ruined his own game. The one and only good thing about him was that they were brilliant enough to have Dave Foley do his voice
Yes Man is the worst choice because it's just a Mr House one with a murderhobo in charge
I just didn’t really like Mr. House.
If you choose House is only because you never played Bioshock
Wow, not a wrinkle on that brain.
NCR already have access codes to kill Mr House.
more quest simple
Because Yes Man is the only npc aside from the children that cannot be killed.
Yes Man is funny.
My head canon is that yes man could be programmed to enforce rules that can only be changed if all factions within the area they police reach consensus via direct democratic votes, which would force everyone to collaborate/cooperate. I also finish quests in a way that gives each faction the ability to take care of themselves to reduce the need for any dependency that would translate into someone having power over them, whenever possible. Everyone is independent but also protected by a force who has to listen to all of them. Anarchist playthrough, is the short answer
NCR is a failed experiment at civilization. They are literally the same type of government and leadership structure that led to what the Fallout setting is in the first place (a nuclear wasteland). What is that famous line about the definition of insanity again?
House is kind of insane and he has no respect for you. He wants to lead humanity into a new scientific revolutionary age and conquer the stars and I guess that's fine if you share in his vision for society, but be prepared to be his loyal dog.
The Legion is just lol. If you are a thug who just wants to rape and pillage and be part of a system that legalizes your savagery then... ok.
I honestly think I can lead a city better than these three options.
It's amazing how focusing so much on the NCR and giving them so many missions is what proves them to be the worst option.
How the hell is it possible that in one of the most important bases they know there is a spy but no one has bothered to put someone in the only radio tower to watch? How is it possible that they have a fricking radio tower where there is never anyone?
>House is kind of insane and he has no respect for you
He respects you immensely for you competence, and as noted by the epilogue, actually takes pride in you and in the GECK notes it's said he sees you as a son
I never did a full House playthrough but I remember him talking down to you. I played New Vegas near the time of its release so the details are foggy but once I asked him a bunch of questions about a mission and he said something like, "Look, you don't need to know all this stuff. Just do what I told you." SOMETHING like that, and that put me off the idea of working with the guy. But I could be wrong about him too, I actually have New Vegas installed right now kek. Maybe I'll do a House and NCR run since since I've never done either of them fully.
>once I asked him a bunch of questions about a mission and he said something like, "Look, you don't need to know all this stuff. Just do what I told you."
That's when you ask him about the chip with low speech the first time you meet him. As you complete more and more tasks he will share more of the plan with you and becomes more willing to explain the details.
Next play through I'll do a full House run and see what it's all about.
It's pretty boring tbh. It's short like a Legion playthrough and the only reward you get is money that you could get from way better sources. House is hilarious so that's kind of a saving grace but otherwise his questline is pretty bland
>It's short like a Legion playthrough
Not at all.
A Legion playthrough is short because it's mutually exclusive with an NCR one, House (and Yes Man) aren't, so you can just trudge along doing NCR quests that may or may not benefit them
Legion playthrough is short because Troonout: New vegana is Fallout 3 but with fascism and paganism is bad.
I have already redeemed.
>House (and Yes Man) aren't
Yes man is the shortest depending on how you do it lol
Yep, it's the speedrunner's favorite for how fast it can be.
aren't they all the same? you're basically doing mostly the same quests just reporting to a different quest-giver
No, with Yes Man you can just tell him that you want to ignore the factions he asks you to check out. You only need to interact/travel to a faction location and you're done.
>you're basically doing mostly the same quests just reporting to a different quest-giver
Either you never played the game or just assumed every faction would be the same after playing once, because this is absolutely not the case.
wow, NCR/Legion/Yes Man tells you kill Mr. House but Mr. House doesn't. so different.
>NCR wants you to deal with the Kings, no other faction asks you to do anything about them
>NCR wants you to deal with the Khans, no other faction asks you to do anything about them
>Caesar has you go to the White Glove Society to ensure their alliance, no other faction asks you to do anything about them
>at the Fort House wants the robot army restored and Caesar wants it destroyed
>NCR isn't even remotely interested in you going to the Fort, you can even ignore going into The Tops to deal with Benny if you so wish
>Both NCR and House are interested in breaking the Omertas plans, but Caesar obviously isn't and doesn't even asks you to aid them
>NCR and House wants Kimball to survive, Caesar wants you to assassinate him
>NCR and Caesar wants you to assassinate House, House doesn't want you to kill any NCR or Legion aligned character and his happy if you manage to remain at least neutral with the NCR as it's easier to deal with them
>everyone has to deal with the Boomers, just like in real life
>everyone has to deal with the BoS, but NCR can be convinced to leave them alone
>Yes Man allows you to ignore all of the above and just skip ahead
Moreover there's the faction quests unique to the faction that aren't about dealing with other factions, the most interesting one being "Et Tumor, Brute?".
>>at the Fort House wants the robot army restored and Caesar wants it destroyed
There's a new mod out there that restores cut dialogue that lets tell House that since Caesar is expecting you blow up the bunker, he should do something to that effect, so he tells you that one of the generators is superfluous so just blow that.
It's pretty neat and solves a long hole in that quest's logic
That's neat. Still a bit moronic that Caesar couldn't spare even someone like Vulpes to check out if you did the job or not, but whatever.
>Still a bit moronic that Caesar couldn't spare even someone like Vulpes to check out if you did the job or not, but whatever
Some anon explained it to me, and I was convinced.
Caesar can't send his own regular men because they're raised in ignorance of higher technology and to worship Caesar as divine
But he also can't send someone from the inner circle like Vulpes, because that's a valuable member to risk and when you think about it, that bunker is a unique thing, possibly incredible dangerous. With you being the only expert in the world of it, being the only person accepted in a similar place (the Lucky 38) in hundreds of years ago
>Caesar has you go to the White Glove Society to ensure their alliance, no other faction asks you to do anything about them
Mr House asks you to deal with the White Glove Society too, not that it actually matters what you do with them
>at the Fort House wants the robot army restored and Caesar wants it destroyed
They don't care what you do with them, only Mr House goes hostile if you destroy them
>Both NCR and House are interested in breaking the Omertas plans, but Caesar obviously isn't and doesn't even asks you to aid them
They don't care which of the Omertas you end up siding with
>NCR and House wants Kimball to survive, Caesar wants you to assassinate him
They don't care if Kimball dies or lives, they still allow you to keep working for them no matter what
>NCR and Caesar wants you to assassinate House, House doesn't want you to kill any NCR or Legion aligned character and his happy if you manage to remain at least neutral with the NCR as it's easier to deal with them
1 different voice line
>everyone has to deal with the Boomers, just like in real life
>everyone has to deal with the BoS, but NCR can be convinced to leave them alone
Thanks for proving my point
>Yes Man allows you to ignore all of the above and just skip ahead
You can still do all these quests for Yes Man
wow, so different
>achktually quests being different means that they're the same! I WIN YOU LOSE XD
Wow, so smart.
I bet you think Oblivion is the height of roleplaying
they're not different though
House's quest line is extremely short and it very quickly locks you out of other quest lines which have interesting insights into the game's main factions, their leaders, their goals, their habitats.
If this was a movie/tv-show/book going by just House's quest line would be extremely boring to watch/read. Because it's a game, some plebs don't care about story and how, in what way and how much it is given to the player, like you OP, and it gets a pass from stupid people.
Anyway, the best way to play is to do NCR quests in the first half, before you reach New Vegas, learning more about that faction. Then switch to House in Vegas, do a bit of his bidding, and finally, switch to Legion, since they have the longest and most interesting questline post you getting the cheap. Quests like assassinating Kimbalt, Doing surgery on Ceaser (with fatal result), make it seem like though to the outside world you have chosen a faction, in reality you are playing a dangerous gamble of pretending to be for the Legion, all the while remaining loyal only to yourself and freeing Vegas of all the parasites fighting over it. Then the battle for Hoover Dam becomes your personal masterpiece, of how you managed to outsmart two major factions in the region and essentially became the leader of a small Vegas 'nation'.
Best playthrough is through Yes Man to achieve your personal victory, not being a literal courier for someone else's victory.
Because genocide / warlord run is hilarious.
I just like removing figureheads from power. Sue me.
Legion is lol because once Caesar dies it will be rife will civil wars. It will ironically have all the same problems the original Roman Empire had with many pretenders to the throne. House predicted himself that the Legion will crumble without Caesar. The Legion isn't really the answer to the Fallout setting, the savagery and brutalism is just better organized.
War never changes, anon. I'd rather people wage war without the use of AI technology, nukes and inhuman biological experiments. So I choose the legion
Bros, Legion is just so fricking cringe.. I can't make myself choose them to win. Never have.
>Bros, Legion is just so fricking c-ACK
silence, profligate
>Says the faction where the men are all wearing fricking skirts
Kek
And NCR women wear pants.
So? That's far more socially acceptable.
>NCR gay just blindly repeats what has been drilled into him
You hate to see it
>it's socially acceptable to have a woman order men around to slaughter
Ok.
I thought we were just talking about wearing a specific article of clothing. Not being a "girlboss" typical chud letting stupid shit live rent free in his skull.
>still sees nothing wrong with it
Classic NCR cuck, able to see the misery surrounding him but unwilling to see the causes.
Shouldn't you be at the hourly Tandi worship session by now?
Do you actually see women wearing pants in public every day IRL and have yourself a little aneurysm every time?
I thought Amish weren't supposed to use the internet?
Have your branch (its the highest NCR honor you know!) and thanks for your help 🙂
Everything in your post here reads like schizophrenic rambling :^)
I don't understand why we left tunics behind.
Pants are too tight on my balls and restrictive of movement
Might as well wear a dress then, little b***h boy. Kek
Post bench
No, you must wear heavy clothing in the desert! Think of the brahmin barons, how else will they make money with the brahmin leather if they're not allowed to sell leather uniforms to the NCR?
I always thought it was a little strange that a man like Caesar hadn't taken a wife yet
>LegionLARPer using tech he can't comprehend/replicate
name a more iconic duo, shouldn't you be kissing Caesar's ass before getting whipped into charging into a gunline with a lawnmower blade?
Good profligate, remember, you don't need to train or use specialized equipment because we only use close range weapons.
The Legion is our best hope of restoring the glories of classical antiquity
He was smug. I showed him what a smug c**t gets.
Cause I dont want anyone ordering me around. NCR is reddit tier homosexuals, legion is a faction of imbeciles who don't know how to use guns and Mr House is a fricking zombie or sth
Yes Man is the only one not tied to old world ideologies that obviously failed
>the pre-war robot who needs a pre-war supercomputer built by a pre-war genius in order to command a pre-war army is not tied to the old world
Mmmmh...
Are you moronic? The point is Yes Man is the only one that has the potential to move humanity forward. It also fits in the best with the themes of Avellone written games, you shouldn't be a slave to anyone's ideology other than your own.
>noooo I need the old world technology to move forward! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND MOM IT'S NOT A PHASE!
The brightest Yes Man supporter.
Yes? Why would you disregard everything from the old world like a radical brainlet?
>the soulless robot with no loyalty or will is the only one that has the potential to move humanity forward
People like you should be thrown off Mt. Taygetus
>Go Yes Man,become leader of New Vegas
>Get ultimate power but all your time is now taken up ruling New Vegas
>Keep House in and become "that guy" everybody lives in fear of as House's Enforcer, while keeping most of your time and just have to clean up loose ends like 4 times a year
hmm anybody who isn't a narcissist would probably pick to keep House in power, why the frick would i want to deal with literal bumbling morons all day everyday, its like you people have never had a leadership role IRL
>Being a good goy picking NCR
kek
>Siding with literal Black person we wuz larpers
nahhh
Rather die standing than live kneeling.
House refused to pay me more for the chippie, so he got turned into refuse
>House refused to pay me more for the chippie
But he does pay you more. Have you not read your contract?
He offers to pay you four times the amount that you were supposed to receive without being asked.
Frickin mini cod and chips for £7, they're having a laugh
I stopped working for House after he told me I could only destroy the brotherhood because they are "absurd". Not because I liked the brotherhood, but because that got rid of the illousion that House is uncorruptable and won't rule with an iron fist if he demands I destroy some random inbred bunker dwellers.
The brotherhood are cultishly devoted to the control and/or destruction of things like house. If I was going to build a nation, the first people I would annihilate would be the black Israelites, because they are diametrically opposed to white men in power. The brotherhood are essentially an elite strike force of incredibly well armed black Israelites
I know you enjoy the slave collar around your neck, but normal people are disgusted by your behavior.
>because they are "absurd"
He explains it besides that though.
They're technofetishists that hoard advanced tech for themselves. House is cyborg with a robot army, you do the math.
To be fair, that just seems to be House's personal opinion of them. Realistically, they're still an active terrorist cult with heavy weaponry, living next to the second biggest power source in the Mojave.
Because I thought there would be some kind of agency in running everything myself. It’s not like the game tells you he is a “backup option.” How the frick was I supposed to know that on my first play through?
Cause I could run things a lot better than a lot of these fricking dumb asses. And I'm not a total fricking dickhole.
Frick the NCR
Frick the Legion
BoS are bros
Frick shrivel dick
and FRICK Ulysses
>You're gonna need to explain yourself,
I do what I want. Deal with it.
>tfw you kill House by accident
I just thought he'd appreciate some fresh air after being cooped up in that thing for so long...
Yes Man is the libertarian choice
So that's why it's a joke option compared to any other faction. Makes sense.
>he choose
I never finished a fallout game
I always quit halfway because inventory management and quest log gets too much
Any tips on finishing?
Install coomer mods.
A good wank will make you feel refreshed
How?
How?
Every functional autist here figured it out. Exposure I fricking guess. If you can't handle life with more than three things on your to do list, you may just want to rope, the real world won't be kind to you.
Actually real life is prettty great that must be why I dont get too invested in fallout haha. Sorry you lived life in hard mode tho 🙁
>How?
You'll have to look up that one yourself. Cooming in New Vegas isn't as complete as Skyrim, but it'd doable. Look up for SexOut and Sexual Innuendo tutorials on Lover's Lab and decide what you like
>How?
No idea. Look up for a job or ab apprenticeship that you can do. If you're at college it's important that you understand that classes and grades are all useless. You're supposed to be making contacts and establishing relationships for the future
Work on your autism. Stop being a clepto and learn to deal with multiple responsibilities at once. It'll come in handy once your mother evicts you.
What's there to manage you just sell all the non-unique guns and the quest log takes care of itself
But I like building a survival bunker with loads of guns and spare parts for repairs. And the quest log is boring fast travel simulator like my genshin dailies
All of that sounds like too much work. Give me pussy first
Pussy is easy to get
Quality pussy, however it's a whole other story
Quality pussy is almost impossible to get unless you are one of the genetically or monetarily gifted.
Don't think I've ever been more miserable than when chasing a 10/10. They're all narcissistic and self-absorbed in the extreme as well.
>They're all narcissistic and self-absorbed in the extreme as well.
10/10 usually have been like that since 12/14. They've been ogled and pandered to their entire lives. They expect to be treated like unicorns
Implying I give a frick about the mojave and its moron inhabitants who sweep the dirt. I am tired of pretending its all some deep philosophical thing. Im only in it for the caps.
RPing someone who literally doesn't care sounds extremely boring. Even less fun than being a murder hobo.
Remember when NV was the buggiest turd in existence for the longest time?
Mr. House was cool but I didn't want to go against NCR and have their side quest and companions get locked out post-ending.
If you are doing a max INT run it just makes sense, otherwise I agree it's moronic
>You're gonna need to explain yourself, anon. Why?
Rebuilding humanity as it was before is a flawed, and quite frankly fricked up concept. Humanity needs to find a way to walk the path of redemption while experiencing the hardships of the wasteland they've created.
So in picking Yes Man, I'm creating yet another hazardous folly of Man's vision of the future, in hopes it can be another deterrent and reminder of the flames from which the newly rebuild world can remember the sins of those from before.
Yes man will turn into a psychopathic totalitarian dictator when I die, and the rest of humanity will have to find a way to rise up against the AI robot army.
I have all the achievements besides the legion quests/ending, the cuck ending to honest hearts, and playing caravan. Can't bring myself to do it, even if it's possible to get over with in an afternoon
Caravan is easy money and next to impossible to lose, I still don't know how it managed to filter so many players.
Very pretty!
cause I'm a robo fricker
and at first I thought Yes Man's ending meant he was gonna come back and take over and make you into his human sex pet
I was siding with house, and broke into his room by accident and opened up his test tube. I thought there were treasures in there.
I just want to turn Yes Man into Yes Woman and frick it.
>Verification not required.
Because I did like a small tiny off-the-road thing and it fricked up the main quest.
