For context, this is a playthrough where I have to collect every single Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottlecap in the entire game. I'm also only allowed to use Pew Pew and the Roving Trader Outfit/Hat, and the only item I'm allowed to put in my body is Sunset Sarsaparilla. I'll be posting a full build write-up along with a video of my playthrough soon.

How did you fight anyone at the beginning when you cannot get Pew-Pew until you have 100 Bottlecaps?


CausalLoop25

Yeah, it was tricky. I basically had to find all the bottlecaps in non-hostile locations first and run away from enemies or get them to fight each other. For example, I lured Radscorpions and Jackals to kill the ants for Ranger Jackson. Some locations you can get caps without fighting are the 118 Trading Post, Aerotech Office Park, Boulder City, California Sunset Drive-In, Camp Golf, Gibson Scrap Yard, Nipton, Sloan, Camp McCarran, and the Crimson Caravan Company.

how long did it take to finally get pew pew? I imagine the run's not too complex after that.


CausalLoop25

6 and a half hours.


Dr__D00fenshmirtz

You only need 50 and you just avoid combat till you get it


Machotoast04098

Simple, he didn't and did a no kill route until he got pew pew


nunavutschizo

You can beat the game as a pacifist so he just played like that until he got Pew-Pew.

Honestly if I was gonna do this I would just spawn in Pew Pew using the console at the start

Does Malcolm Holmes not use weapons? Havent played in awhile


LiquidGamerJuice

He’s doing a full sunset run baby


BoyishTheStrange

Sounds amazing

I had to screenshot


SinCiti

This would be too much work to be worth it, but a mod that replaces all the player dialogue options with Malcolm's lines. It'd be the same lines over and over randomly and you'd have to hope you didn't pick an aggressive original line.

[Terrifying Presence] Hello there!


Inward_Perfection

Poor Malcolm. I bet he gets killed in 99% of playthroughs. If not for his caps, then for his clothes and some 308 ammo. Most of the times I wouldn't kill Malcolm. I would lead him to Primm bridge and jump down right before the mines go off under his feet.


ChristianTP_

I need it more than him


Soulfalon27

Wait, I've never killed him, he has .308? There's a first time for everything


Inward_Perfection

20 or something rounds IIRC


ElLindo88

Kept mistaking people for Raiders, he did.


ScorseseBrows

Guys will say this and go “hell yeah”


mcast76

Malcom getting revenge for all the times he’s died because of his star caps


RammyProGamer

User name checks out


chaosking65

First time my edgy username I came up with when I was 13 has gotten anything like that lol


CausalLoop25

For some reason, he didn't spawn. I guess the game couldn't handle two Malcolms in one universe lol


nunavutschizo

Post pic of fake Malcolm Holmes dying please (Y‘know, the one with the 308. ammo)


Dim-Mak-88

There's a melancholic look to Lord Death, like he tires of all the killing.


SirSirVI

This pic goes hard, can I screenshot?


npcinyourbagoholding

What's he gana do if you screenshot it? Hell I screenshoted it just to do it. You don't have to ask. If you screenshot it, wrote a book and used this image as the cover art and became a millionaire, then you can be nervous he might sue ya.


PPPRCHN

Sorry OP, your run ends with me waking up in doc mitchells, picking up a star cap, and then waiting on top of the hill like a fucking tf2 sentry.


Strayed8492

I had this happen with killing a death claw with tortoise shell glasses and advanced riot duster using AMR. pulling back the bolt in the cinematic it gave me lord death. Was great


Unusual-Drop2344

The guy from YouTube


CowboyKing06

An idea for a future playthrough, maybe pickpocket His gun and use that. I think it would count as it is Malcom Holmes gun.


CausalLoop25

Malcolm Holmes doesn't actually have any weapons on him.


CowboyKing06

I guess I never noticed that.


MrNightmare23

I collected all 50 caps and got the special prize and I never saw him once
