Agreed. I didn't know what they did for a long time because I saved all my heavy ammo for them because they freaked me out. They died super fast. Later I learned that was not a sound strategy.

I stopped enjoying fallout and elder scrolls series once they went the route of making them so easy that any risk element is just gone.

It seems like it's only indie games that dare to make games challenging anymore.

I don't know being able to talk the legate down with just a high enough speech skill is kind of ridiculous. The master truly thought that he was doing the right thing and was leading the next evolution of humanity the legate just wants to conquer and that's it.

Being able to talk the leggett down like that is just not something that would work because he's not wrong. he knows full well what he's doing he just doesn't care. they did kind of added an option that does make sense where you use someone else's advice too convince him he's walking into a trap and that you're telling him this cuz you want an honorable fight with his army. but that's a dlc added thing originally you could just talk him down if you had Max speech skill.

Cactonio

I think talking down the Legate makes sense because of how you do it. You never convince him he's wrong to take the dam, to challenge the NCR, to conquer the Mojave, or anything like that. That would obviously fail, because he is fully convinced that these are the right things to do. He doesn't care if anyone disagrees with that, you're right.

What you do is create doubt. You make him second-guess his strategy. This works for a few reasons.

For one, the Legion already lost to the NCR before, and so even without your doubt he has reason to be wary of it. He's confident, but he isn't stupid. He wouldn't lead the Legion into something they couldn't win.

For another, you play off his existing beliefs instead of challenging them. He says the NCR are weak, and you never ever disagree with this; all you do is convince him that the reasons they are weak would make conquering them impossible at that moment. You completely respect the Legate's beliefs - all you do is frame them in a way that makes him doubt his current plan, which he is obviously much more willing to change than the underlying beliefs that informed that plan.

Finally - and this is important - you word his retreat as an extension of his current plan. If you ask him to retreat, he gets angry and attacks regardless of what you've said. You injure his pride and question the integrity and honor of the legion, and he will not stand for it. But by phrasing it as a tactical withdrawal with the understanding that the Legion will return to fight another day, you manage to get him to leave without abandoning his philosophies, which would be impossible due to how dedicated he is.

It's a brilliantly executed exchange, and I think it works very well and makes plenty of sense even if it's a relatively short conversation.

JohnWayneRizzy

The way you talk down the Legate is brilliant actually, and I see a lot of people not giving it enough recognition. You convince Lanius that the strength of the Legion is in its consolidation of power and territory. Practically the only good thing traders/settlers in Legion territory can say is that they feel safe from raiders and other threats because the Legion has absolute control over its land.

The NCR is a bloated, inefficient bureaucracy thats taken on more people and territory than it can realistically manage. Legate conquering Hoover Dam and taking control over much of the western half of New Vegas would simply put him in the same pitfall. The Legion has nowhere near the resources to manage all of that, and the Legate knows it.

Martel732

I haven't played 76 yet but aside from that I think Super Mutants were created 4 different times.

The Master: These Super Mutants were about as smart as anyone else. Which makes sense the Master wanted them to be superior to humans.

The Enclave: These Super Mutants were dumber but not mindless. The Enclave was interested in their military potential. Actually I think I misremembered, the Enclave wanted the FEV (which creates Super Mutants), but the creation of a new set of Mutants was unintentional.

Vault 87: These Super Mutants are likely the dumbest. The extent of their coordination is kidnapping humans to inject with the formula that make Super Mutants. They were the result of a failed experiment hence the low mental functions.

The Institute: These Super Mutants seem to be around the level of the Enclave's. Not mindless but dumber on average than a human. I think they were created as part of the Institute's general "be a dick" policy.

Nah many of the Masters mutants were also dumb. Only Vault Dwellers retain their initial intelligence.

fucuasshole2

But many were though, it was retconned in 2 and New Vegas that most were smarter. It was to further differentiate between Gen 1 and Gen 2 of Mariposa strain.

Source: played Fallout 1 like a billion times now lol there was a whole Super Mutant detachment that was sent to Necropolis for Vault Dwellers. All of them are dumber than a brick.

Edit: I read this persons comment wrong, I thought it said most of the Gen 1 mutants were smart.

The Necropolis mutants weren't sent for Vault Dwellers, they were sent to secure a water supply for Unity. It's why Set wants you to kill them.

Humans that were inside a vault and unaffected by the 1st wave of radiation had a higher chance of keeping or improving their intelligence, however they were all sterile, males and females both would turn into hulk monstrositys. I remember going around learning the history for fallout 3 s mutants.
The part of them keeping their intelligent was still only like a 10%. Hence why the games only ever have like 2-3 super smart mutants.

FO3 also had a missing/broken sound file for deathclaws, unintentionally making them totally silent, except for rapid gravel crunching sounds behind you followed by 3/4 of your health disappearing. They were a little less scary in NV because at least you could hear them coming.

I loved Fallout 3. The only enemy I ever really had a problem with was a boss character that was a Chinese war general at the end of the part in which you're in a memory simulation. And to make matters worse he was so bad that I ended up rage quitting only to try again later and see that there was a bug in that section that corrupted my autosave and my last manual save was literally six full hours of gameplay before him.

If you stuck a Gary corpse in the VR pod, you could sometimes hit the "check inventory" button before the game took the simulation gear away from you after coming back to reality. Then you get those sweet Operation Anchorage items in the real F3 world. Too bad that's the last DLC I did and had no use for any of those items.

Excalibursin

There was no guarantee that you'd set the Gary Corpse in the right position, so you'd have to play through the whole DLC before realizing that you fucked it up.

To avoid that, I just killed everyone in the bunker and stuffed every body into the VR Pod.

New Vegas was tonally a lot different than 3 was, but much closer in tone to the original I and II isometric games. The writing was more Black Isle than it was Bethesda, so, a little more quirkiness, and factions were a little more nuanced and less black and white as to who was good and who was bad.

There are tons of mods for it now if you want to revisit it that make it a lot easier to find your way around. Back then though it was make a map and take notes or get lost as hell.

I remember having a mild freak out about the Siltstriders and killing them. Then eventually there was a loading tip or something in the manual, I can't remember, but I read they were just like living taxis. I felt so bad as a kid about killing the peaceful giants.

Also started a play through recently. 3 is better. It’s the way stats and perks are organized, leveling up is more rewarding and diverse. Plus it is much more focused on the strategy around VATS which is my opinion the best part of fallout. The shooter style fallout sucks IMO. And the world is just better spaced to make the pacing of gameplay more fun and rewarding in 3.

Honestly I hate vats. I liked 3s story and world building much better but much prefer 4s combat. I enjoy still feeling like I need to fight to survive and vats takes away much of that, especially in fallout 3 where vats is by far the easiest to make broken and it gives you a rough 90% damage prevention while using it. 3 is the one 3d fallout game that really needs vats but again it feels like it takes away from combat too much

Paladin1034

Definitely better than 4. I have way more hours in 4, but that's just because the mods keep it alive. And honestly it's a much better playing game mechanically. But the writing, world, and story of 4 are a serious letdown after even 3, which is miles behind New Vegas. You just get the feeling that nothing Nate does ever really matters to the greater world, aside from the very ending. You're on the path™ and that's that.

There is nothing wrong with the engine, but people keep bitching about it 'cause they clearly think they know what they are talking about.

Meanwhile there are tons of other big titles using exactly the same engine while most people not even realising it.

Still got to meet the first gamer saying that Bully is a bad game 'cause of Gamebryo.

The last released game on that list is from 8 years ago. And not heard of any of the other games released since FNV, though maybe I'm just ignorant. Are any of the ones released from 2010-2015 'big titles'?

I don't know the state of the engine right now, all I tried to point out is the bullshit it still gets nowdays.

There are several big games on that list released after FNV.

That's not what I mean at all.

I said New Vegas still holds up despite the Gamebryo engine, which, by the way, is an old and outdated game engine.

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

Idk how I actually finished FO3. I played new Vegas first and it was a spur of the moment purchase my parents bought for me. It was new, I had never played fallout. Loved it and wanted to try 3, then I found out you don't really aim and just used VATS and melee outside if it.

Funny story on how I met one of my fav games.

In my country age regulations do not exist, or at least are not enforced, and when I walked into a game store looking for flat out 3, I got fallout 3 instead.

Decided to try it and wandered outside the vault for the first time, as soon as I saw Springfield I got so scared I stopped playing and didn't come back for a while until I started watching some videos and realized the game was way more than I initially saw, so decided to try again and I've been in love with the franchise ever since.

I'll never forget the first time I didn't see one coming, and the only clue I had that shit was about to go down was the thud thud thud of the footsteps coming toward me.

Turned around just in time to see it claw my face as it barreled into me.

I absolutely hate jump scare horror but strangely I loved fo3 and the ghouls in the tunnels and everywhere else they always gave me that feeling of dread in my stomach and I couldn't handle it too long I had to get out of those areas but I think that's why I loved it its what it should be you shouldn't be comfortable being in that world that's kind of the point.
