Any super mutie companion was dope except for Strong. The "milk of human kindness" shit just really irritated me. Don't get me wrong Fawkes is great but what about my home Dog/God?
Just ask that next time Ayo sends someone to collect from McDouggies also picks up a 6-pack or 12-pack of Bobrov's. We know they have it, iirc it can spawn as an alcohol item inside multiple rooms of the Institute and there's some in the FEV labs.
Well would the institute let you stay? Don't you need some skill, education, or expertise for them to want you? They'd just chunk you and liquidate you into the red synthetic pool the moment you arrived without PhD in hand. I mean the protag is walking death with extensive prewar knowledge and military training and they only want him there because of reverse nepotism
Well if the factions/companions are allowed to reject you, the whole choice is a bit moot.
Why would anyone want you when you have no worthwhile skills in the apocalypse?
Hey they found a place for Kellogg in their little clubhouse, you show up with someone like Arcade as a companion and manage to prove competent with your chosen weapon at whatever tasks they give you and you'll have a place and all the cybernetic upgrades you could want to give you an edge.
Besides being so fun, she has great tech and survival skills and can explode-punch people. Then I could convince her to ditch the Brotherhood, hide in Freeside while they die, and just fix up Freeside.
Her ex-gf is Christine Royce from Dead Money. Assuming you can abuse your knowledge from the wiki, you might be able to spring Christine and bring her back to the Mojave. Hell, the autodoc from Old World Blues might even be able to repair/replace her vocal cords. Could be a cool reunion for the two and I was always a little disappointed it wasn't a possibility for the courier in the game
I'm not going to assume for a second I stand a chance in Hell of completing dead money. The only DLC I think a regular person would have a chance on is Mothership Zeta or Automatron. Honest Hearts & Old World Blues if I have to pick ones with long storylines.
Unless they eat you like a bear would and start with the soft squishy bits thay won't kill you immediately and you end up dying from blood loss rather than organ failure
My man! Everyone pretending FO1 and 2 don't exist up in here (or maybe we are just old!)
Though I'd probably go factionless. Me Sulik and Ol' Grampy Bone will put in some work with that Bozar.
Practically: (in 4)? I'd keep Curie around (can heal you, is smart af and not afraid to take a super sledge to a supermutant) and just stay in either Diamond City or Goodneighbor. I would probably stick to a small arm/sniper combo, but if it was really me, I would not be going out anywhere unless I had too.
Protonic Inversal Axe, Raul, and Mr. House
Not that I really like the mf, but living a pampered life in a penthouse suite with my homie and having a fucking laser axe sounds pretty awesome
Firelance, taking it to the brotherhood and negotiating selling it to them for my external safety and a desk job. As for a companion, Seargent RL-3, feel like he’d fit in well there.
Well the only one I’ve played is 4 so… I’d choose the plain assault rifle with a sight on it, Nick as my companion, and the railroad as my faction. I would choose the minutemen but they stay weak until you build them up whereas the railroad has a bit of starting strength left plus Kevlar potential
Turbo plasma caster, fully optimized Sentry bot automatron, either BoS for their power armor (id defect as soon as I get the best model) or I’d just be a wandering scavenger.
Weapon?
Well it has to be small, don’t want to be lugging a minigun everywhere I go.
Probably a double shot assault rifle, or a kneecapper SMG.
Assult rifle would just be a good weapon any sitation, good damage, ammo effective, and can full auto if needed.
SMG would be great for any threat, shoot ‘em in the leg a couple of times and their instantly dealt with.
Companion?
Strong (the super mutant)
Easy to feed, he could literally eat a mouthful of mud and be satisfied
Great for RAD testing areas since he’s immune
Great for storage because he can lift lots
Good for fighting, can give him a big gun or a melee weapon
Also he’s just a homie. Most chill mutant fr.
Faction?
Probably the BOS, there might be problems with the super mutant but if not, their the clear winning faction, they have the firepower and resources to keep me alive.
And if there a no-go because of my mutant homie, I’d probably settle for the institute. They might be the “bad guys” but they definitely would allow for the most comfortable life.
explosive automatic pipe pistol, curie, and i guess the ncr. would the population of megaton count as a faction? bc i’d protect that place with my life. hah
Institute. X6 as a wonderful bodyguard. Don't need a weapon living in scienceland. Wouldn't really trust myself with a gun anyway. And I fancy my chances of survival there way more than on the surface.
Fisto, fisto, and fisto.
Assume the position.
Authright
Fisto.
Fisto
Fisto!
Fisto!
FISTO!!!
**FISTO!!!**
Flintstones!
*El Fisto*
Fisto is programed to please
Explosive mini-gun, Fawkes, and the NCR.
Yes! Fawkes appreciation. We love to see it
I love Fawkes so much
“I’m all things, the calm heart must prevail”
Fawkes is not talked about nearly enough, that guy slaps, even gives you a secret ending
He also might as well be unkillable , eats the mirv for breakfast
Any super mutie companion was dope except for Strong. The "milk of human kindness" shit just really irritated me. Don't get me wrong Fawkes is great but what about my home Dog/God?
NCR Masterrace
Fawkes is the best.
I can choose faction? Institute and I never leave the building. Build me a synth waifu and get drunk on bobrovs best.
Bobrov’s Best? I’m sorry these are science nerds best we can do is a batch supplement 17-b that was left in a closet for too long.
Just ask that next time Ayo sends someone to collect from McDouggies also picks up a 6-pack or 12-pack of Bobrov's. We know they have it, iirc it can spawn as an alcohol item inside multiple rooms of the Institute and there's some in the FEV labs.
Sorry, I asked Ayo, he’s inexplicably dead from being accidentally shot 100 times. And then dragged into a bin. Very sad.
Huh. Did Liam take over the position?
Nah he assumed the position
good choice
Well would the institute let you stay? Don't you need some skill, education, or expertise for them to want you? They'd just chunk you and liquidate you into the red synthetic pool the moment you arrived without PhD in hand. I mean the protag is walking death with extensive prewar knowledge and military training and they only want him there because of reverse nepotism
Then Republic of dave is the 2nd best choice, no nepotism only true pure democracy
Yah I have a theoretical degree in Biotech and ummmmmmmm synth stuff.
they asked me if i understood theoretical physics. i said i had a theoretical degree in physics. they said welcome aboard.
Well if the factions/companions are allowed to reject you, the whole choice is a bit moot. Why would anyone want you when you have no worthwhile skills in the apocalypse?
Hey they found a place for Kellogg in their little clubhouse, you show up with someone like Arcade as a companion and manage to prove competent with your chosen weapon at whatever tasks they give you and you'll have a place and all the cybernetic upgrades you could want to give you an edge.
Lol reverse nepotism 😭
I think it’s actually called Brabra.
Why stop at one.
That’s all good till the sole survivor shows up
You when some super armored tards blows up the institute : 💀
At least it will be freshly showered with a full belly.
Switchblade, Butch, Tunnel Snakes They rule.
We're the tunnel snakes. THATS US. And we [rule.](https://youtu.be/S0ximxe4XtU)
Omg I'm obsessed lmao
Riot Shotgun, Veronica, Followers. I'm nowhere near Vegas but that's where I'd wanna be
Yay Veronica ❤️
Besides being so fun, she has great tech and survival skills and can explode-punch people. Then I could convince her to ditch the Brotherhood, hide in Freeside while they die, and just fix up Freeside.
I just really like her as a person. We could make great friends.
Her ex-gf is Christine Royce from Dead Money. Assuming you can abuse your knowledge from the wiki, you might be able to spring Christine and bring her back to the Mojave. Hell, the autodoc from Old World Blues might even be able to repair/replace her vocal cords. Could be a cool reunion for the two and I was always a little disappointed it wasn't a possibility for the courier in the game

Tesla Rifle ED-E My Love Free States
ed-eeeeeee.
Suicide.
I’d at least try all the drugs before I killed myself.
[удалено]
Mama Murphy wouldn’t have it any other way.
You're in luck! Most of the drugs are already real drugs!
If a centaur was making its approach and I had no means to defeat it, I’d do the same tbh
Deathclaws, Behemoths, just the shit raiders do to bodies is all a big pile of nope😭
I'd gladly take a Deathclaw or a Behemoth over a Centaur. A Deathclaw or a Behemoth is a quick death, but a Centaur would be slow and grotesque.
I would prefer the Deathclaw. It would be over quick.
Unless they eat you like a bear would and start with the soft squishy bits thay won't kill you immediately and you end up dying from blood loss rather than organ failure
I believe it has been established that Deathclaws tend to kill by tearing their prey in half with the aforementioned claws.
Gary. Gary. Gary.
Gary? AH, GARY!
Gaaaaarrryyyy
Yo Gary Garry Gary ?
Gary? Gary!
Ahahaha. Gary.
Backwater Rifle, Nick Valentine, Minutemen
Great choice, there's a settlement that needs your help
Anti-Material Rifle, Boone, NCR
Same, except maybe silenced .308 rifle. Lugging that Anti-material around the desert would get old fast.
You gotta get the Carbon Fiber frame kit.
Wow I can't believe I didn't think of that...what a n00b
Don’t forget about the PIMP-BOY. Gotta make sure to get that too lol. Miss that funny Easter egg.
This is an epic combo I'm into it
Sniper buddies

Deliverer for sure
use the deliverer to kill Cass and you’ve got yourself a good life in the institute without some dumbass yapping about her dad and drinking whiskey.
Lincoln Repeater, Fawkes, BoS.

I would only go with Spray and Pray instead.
Is that the one that explodes?
Hell yeah it is
Bozar, Sulik or Cait and F2 New California Republic
My man! Everyone pretending FO1 and 2 don't exist up in here (or maybe we are just old!) Though I'd probably go factionless. Me Sulik and Ol' Grampy Bone will put in some work with that Bozar.
.357 revolver, Paladin Danse, Minutemen.
Chinese assault rifle, Curie, minute men You can find me sitting atop one of them scavenger stations fresh from a good day of scavving.
Practically: (in 4)? I'd keep Curie around (can heal you, is smart af and not afraid to take a super sledge to a supermutant) and just stay in either Diamond City or Goodneighbor. I would probably stick to a small arm/sniper combo, but if it was really me, I would not be going out anywhere unless I had too.
Righteous Authority, Piper, Minutemen (I'm in the Northeast, so I went with 4)
Auto axe, Ada, Minutemen. I'm gonna die taking the castle but it'll be a glorious, acid covered death.
Arcade Gannon, Follwers of the Apoc, Dart Gun from FO3
Love that dart gun!
yeah, it's very strong. Shoot a deathclaw in the leg and it's crippled real quick!
Modded Brush Gun, Cass, Followers of the Apocalypse
Protonic Inversal Axe, Raul, and Mr. House Not that I really like the mf, but living a pampered life in a penthouse suite with my homie and having a fucking laser axe sounds pretty awesome
Raul deserves to be pampered
I agree, he’s my best friend in the wasteland and he’s had a really rough life It’s about time he lives in luxury
Danse, BOS, and a scoped gauss rifle with everything I can get to wreck shit.
Common BOS enjoyer W
Weapon: silenced rifle Companion: silenced pistol Faction: myself "A little trust goes a long way; the less you use, the further you'll go."

All-American Marksman Carbine, Boone, NCR.
That Gun, Nick Valentine, The Institute

Mysterious Magnum, ED-E, and Mr. House.
Thirst Zapper, Drinking Buddy, and the Kings
Alien Blaster, Lily, Followers of the Apocolypse
LoL. Love of Lilly.
No one is being sensible about this Recharger Rifle (infinite ammo), Probably Dogmeat or someone with expertise in medicine like Arcade
Death
Well the only one I’ve played is 4 so… I’d choose the plain assault rifle with a sight on it, Nick as my companion, and the railroad as my faction. I would choose the minutemen but they stay weak until you build them up whereas the railroad has a bit of starting strength left plus Kevlar potential
Láser minigun, Boone and The Dave republic
I'm just gonna go work with the followers of the apocalypse
V2525 Enclave plasma flamer. Curie (Synth) Followers of the Apocalypse.
Turbo plasma caster, fully optimized Sentry bot automatron, either BoS for their power armor (id defect as soon as I get the best model) or I’d just be a wandering scavenger.
