...

Was the last bit totally necessary? You're on righteous ground. There's no need to bork it up by then being snide about it.

I can't help my nature, sorry. I'll delete it.

[Yoink]

Oh great, and now I lost the most convenient save where I could still choose whether or not to complete this quest.
The saves I have are either too late, or much earlier when I still have a heap of stuff to kill before reaching my destination.

Could you guys help me out here? Is it better to keep TDB as a companion, or finish the quest?

The Drinking Buddy. He's a cool guy, I kinda want him to class up one of my settlements (or follow me around carrying a truckload of loot) rather than just sitting dormant in a part of the gameworld I'm unlikely to ever visit.

Oh, and I'm firmly on Umiman's side in the ongoing discussion, for what it's worth. Might as well chime in.

[nenjin]

I never turned in that quest, so I don't know what the reward is. Somehow I think it can't beat having him as a companion though.

[SOLDIER First]

You can keep him I think, the quest just won't turn in IIRC.

[umiman]

[spoiler=The reward is actually kinda the same actually. But instead of getting the free beer from TDB at your settlement or whatever, you just go to the hotel and get it there.[/spoiler]

[nenjin]

OMG SPOILER.

[Flying Dice]

I would, but I've sworn to never play a Bethesda RPG without total save control.

There's mods for that.

Thanks, but I'd rather wait for mods to add basic needs and fiddle with damage rather than having to get mods to deal with their saving bullshit, killing-by-inches carry weight bullshit, &c.

[BFEL]

If the effect is the same, wtf is the difference?
And furthermore do you REALLY think someone's gonna go to the trouble of making their own needs system from scratch when they could just change the survival mode system already there?
I mean, did New Vegas have a needs mod? Maybe it did, but I'm betting against it because it had that in the vanilla game anyway.

Far Harbor trailer is out.

That's one of those trailers that spoils everything.

Thanks for the heads-up.
I somehow knew avoiding that trailer would be wise.

I wish I could go back in time and not watch it. Also go back in time and avoid some of the spoilers for this game in this thread. I'm still extremely pissed off at MrWiggles for spoiling the entire game. Fuck you MrWiggles. Fuck you with a rake.

And don't give me any lip about how "oh it's so obvious" and "anyone could have seen it coming". Yeah, this may not be Game of Thrones but some of us still have expectations about the story. You fucking ruined the entire game and I hate you eternally.

XD
Beside me fucking up the hiding thing. I cant get behind how someone enjoyment is so fragile. Especially by something that the game doesnt even present to you directly.  All those hours running around, exploring, picking up scrap, shooting stuff, shooting more stuff, customizing the thing to go shoot stuff. Wait, can't. Not anymore, a optional side information thats hidden was revealed. Cant shoot and collect scrap anymore. The big thing, is the twist done with the kid itself, and how that relates to the story. The story elements with the campaigns, with Mr. Brotherhood of Steel. But no, so freakishly fragile that optional hidden information is so damaging. I dont get it. In my play through I didnt discover that information about shaun. Read it somewhere. Read the actual big twist though way before I got to the institute though. Still went on shooting, exploring, collecting stuff for a long while. Even watched most of the follower alternate dialogue sequences, before I met the follower. Its something thats truely lost on me.

Maybe instead of trying to justify your mistake where you literally spoiled the main plot of the entire game, and where instead of trying to emphasize that some people actually liked the story, or where perhaps considering that someone was speaking with a hint of sarcasm / drama / literary zeal (something I understand a lot of humans have trouble with), you just go and fix your mistake and avoid doing that in the future?

Nah, not going to fix it. Its now part of the conversation and lose a lot of context if it where to change. I also wasn't justify the mistake. It was a mistake. Whoops. Whatever. I was just kinda really bemused by how fragile your experience is. And I dont understand why you're still in this thread, if it was utterly, and wholly destroyed the entire game for you. Which, is awesome having this much power over your own enjoyment. Dance for me puppet. 8b Dance for me. 8b

[Putnam]

That's a pretty prick thing to do.

[Rolan7]

Yeah at this point you're being petty /:
I don't think the spoiler was all that bad, but come on...  You've made your point.

[umiman]

For the 3 people who saw my old spoiler post before I edited it...

This is my face right now.

Anyway, I'm sure everyone is tired of the derail.

[JimboM12]

Rather then make a joke about old men and cialis and assumptions that umiman is secretly the rippin' and the tearin' guy, ill settle for the fact that that photo was taken in a european car as the steering wheel is on the right.

Umiman, stop secretly spoiling that the next fallout game is in europe.

You wish dude. Bethesda will never take it out of USA. You're more likely to get Fallout Florida than Fallout Europe.

Y'know what *I* want to see?
Fallout China
I mean c'mon, its a freakin OBVIOUS setting. Its like literally the only other world power mentioned in the series
And if they take it there Bethesda can do whatever stupid plot for stupidheads they want without jackbooting all over our precious canon!
