I think I'm gonna talk to Mr House before i leave New Vegas. It seems like i should
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Oops, i opened something the robots didn't like. Now i gotta fight robots
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
They killed me. I had saved just before i entered the hotel so this time i chose to fight Victor instead of leaving my companions outside. I had to kill all the robots in the area but it was pretty easy with my modified transmitter antenna melee weapon. I'll see how far this winds up going
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Right now I'm exploring the presidential suite. I should meet Mr House though
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Hmmm, well the robots hate me and i can't really talk to him unless i break him out of his chamber and i don't really feel like killing him rn
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Yeah, i see Mr House on the screen i should talk to him from now but i failed the mission that starts the dialog when i killed Victor at the door. He's not talking
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I'm going to find Mr House's secret bunker and install my platinum chip
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Lol!
I was leaving the strip, where i just killed all of the securitrons, and i get outside the gate and i hear securitrons threatening me and just as I'm about to hit one of them i realize they are not hostile. Huh?
They were talking to someone else.
When you first get to the strip there's a scripted scene where a person tries to run past the bots and they get shot. I ran in so fast that the script never finished 😅
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Ok, i decided I'm going to meet the Boomers, then the Khans, then BoS. After that I'll go to the secret bunker in the bottom right of the map. I wonder if i can swim there 🤔
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
So i disengaged Mr House a while back. I don't know, it just seemed right? I didn't really even engage him at all, i just, didn't think he was interesting this time. I like the Yes Man.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Yesterday i met the Boomers and now I'm pretty close to raising The Lady of the Lake for them which should mean they will help in the end fight. I've been helping the NCR, at least as long as they aren't killing peaceful supermutants, so i think they will pitch in too.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Cesar has an open invitation to go see him and I'm curious what will happen with my speech perks when the time comes. But i might do another dlc before i go down the river.
And i still need to make real contact with the Khans. I'm not sure how I'll get along with them. I have sympathy for what the NCR did to them but they also make a lot of trouble. Which maybe i like? I'll see what happens when i get there.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
My character has 420 hp, lol
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Well now I'm talking to the elder. I guess I'll at least act like I'll help him too
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Oh snap, he's trying to involve me in a conspiracy to cover up his failures. People probably died. I might feel pretty good about doing a coup on him
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I'm working on the BoS mission and i don't fast travel so i just randomly wandered into another supermutant territory. I forgot about Tabitha, lol.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I died a couple times and got back to it today. So i found a broken robot and fixed it and it asked me to lead it to Tabitha.
Tabitha is a purple supermutant wearing red heart glasses and a blond wig. She's waiting for me outside the supply room. The robot, Rhonda, tells her i fixed her and Tabitha thanks me and they walk away.
🙃
I'm pretty sure i remembered this mission being hard but I'm currently leveled beyond what the original game even allowed, so, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Today i explored vault 34 and spent a lot of time at the Gun Runners buying stuff and selling stuff and making all of my ammo better at the reloading station. I made a few bad purchases but i have so many caps i can't really worry about wasting a few thousand.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Then i went to Mick and Ralph's to borrow their workbench and optimized all of my energy weapon ammo. Then i broke one of my cardinal rules and actually sold ammo because i didn't want to shoot the overcharged stuff and hurt my guns. (Ammo weighs nothing and can always be shot so i try never to sell it but my character is overpowered and rolling in excess ammo now so i think it's ok)
An annoying side effect of not having any normal ammo is i can't directly tell how much ammo i have when I'm selecting a weapon anymore, but I'm willing to deal with that.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I also helped out around McCarren. I conducted an interrogation of a high ranking legionnaire and got him to spill some beans with my speech skill. I'm starting to get to a point at McCarren where i feel like the game glitches irrecoverably so i might try to stay out of there now 🫤
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
So i love to slow roll my fallout playthroughs. I'm level 39 and i haven't met Cesar yet, but i still have 2 DLCs to complete as well.
I think I'm going to find the Happy Trails caravan master.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I found the lot of caravanners in a cave. I talked to the guy in a vault suit first and he was immediately awful. I called him out for being addicted to jet, told him he would suffer terrible withdrawals if he ran out, sold him fixer, then sold him a lot of jet, then i convinced him he should leave because he has no idea what he's doing. I mean, that's the reason i told him but personally i thought he was awful and i was just happy to make him leave.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Lol, i was kind of looking forward to journeying with this gang but they all died in the first fight. I guess i did that prick a favor convincing him to leave
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
So i guess i beat this dlc? I didn't really feel like i did anything, it was all glitchy and then it was over and this dude was mad i let people die?
I leveled up a bunch so that's cool. And i liked the scenery and the weather. I just thought the lore was trying to be a lot and not giving me the room to actually feel involved, maybe?
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
The other dlcs were pretty linear with a few choices along the way. Do this or your head will explode. Be nice to this person or not. This one, i didn't really grasp that i had choices to make but it's obvious that i did now that I've watched the epilogue. And the last scene! 🫣
I reloaded the game because i was sure it was glitching. No inputs worked. They just wanted me to use the detonator but they locked me in place and wouldn't let me access the pipboy so it just seemed like the game was glitched as usual. The second time it happened i tried pulling the trigger a couple times and it worked but man, lol, maybe try not to make your game feel like it's locked up if it's still working?
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I already lost my companions in the Mojave when i went to Zion so i think I'm going to go back to the Big MT. I'm at the top of the map and using the teleporter will get me to the bottom of the map, and just about everything i have left to do is waiting on me meeting Cesar down there
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
(Did i mention I'm not fast traveling in this playthrough? I decided a teleporter doesn't count though because I'm not skipping a walk to use it #GameLoreHeadcanon)
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I should bring a lot of books for the depository. Now, where did i remember seeing a lot of books, again?
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I stopped by the Big MT just long enough to purchase the last cybernetic enhancement from the auto doc. I teleported back and walked to cottonwood cove.
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I'm supposed to get in a boat to see Cesar, but I'm wondering if i can kill all of these slavers instead. The family they are holding for transport might be thankful, but it would be hard. I -think- i can swim to Cesar if i get shunned by the legion again
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Well i killed the ferry operator and now I'm failing a bunch of quests 😅
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I've been sniping from cottonwood overlook. I gotta move spots now, or wait for day. I am gonna get that family out
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I freed the family and removed their exploding collars without causing them to go off. Now i want to find Cesar. I hope i can swim there. Good thing i have the rebreather and can stay underwater forever if i want to
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Haha, you don't swim there. You stare at the floor of a dock and wish your way there 😅
Well now there's a hundred guys shooting at me
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
The cyber dog k9000 makes it easy, but the PlayStation seems to be done for now. Womp.
I'll have to resume my rendezvous with Cesar when it cools off in here
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
That was fun. I killed everyone at the main legion camp except for Cesar. Apparently he's the only one with permission to run away? Lol. Anyway i guess it's cool that someone gets to tell the story. I'll just pretend he won the lottery
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Now to activate a robot army, i think?
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Sweet! I upgraded the robot army after disabling their defenses.
I also picked up another dog brain for Rex, this is number three. He only needed one but you can never be too sure i guess. And yeah, killed ever fucking slaver except for Cesar
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I think maybe I'll do some quests in the middle of the map, go talk to Yes Man, and do the last dlc before i go to the dam
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I have the jury rig perk so i can repair my Kings outfit with legionnaire armor, which i find pretty funny. I'm still insisting my character thinks that armor is for people who get hurt
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
Hmmm, i think i also have a coup to orchestrate at BoS...
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I'm gonna go tell Diane i found her drug dealer and let that emo kid know he can join the followers of the apocalypse. I got a long walk from cottonwood cove to red rock canyon
2xfo@RnDanger@infosec.exchange
I ran into a gold mine full of NCR ghouls, but no gold
