Fallout 4 protagonist probably.

Fallout 2 Protagonist
Depending on build can oneshot people in power armor via

The Warrior.

Fuck all you main series "canon" plebs.

The Warriors best ending puts them in a more powerful position than any other protagonist's best ending.

They also get fucking advanced power armor, BoS edition, with a fucking mantle and cape. How stylish is that shit?

DC is way more dangerous, there's more radiation, super mutants control most of it and the Enclave is always swooping in to clean the filthy wastelanders. That being said east Boston is swarming with enemies, but that's because there's an even heavier emphasis on combat than FO3.

Canonically DC is the most fucked up place in all the US

NCR pushes Legions' shit in so hard that they flee past the Midwest and Pitt, and head straight towards the East Coast, raping and pillaging everything on the way there. By that time Institute has a vice grip on ther region and the Brotherhood has become an undeground relic of the past much like in New Vegas. So then the Legion begins fighting the Institute for dominance, and the recurring motif of the game can be old warfare vs. new warfare to further the point that war, war never changes
>>
>>316559071
Just the oil rig, they reference the Shi in Fallout 4. One of the antagonists lived in NCR territory before moving up to San Francisco, but he didn't like it there either, so he left and kept doing things on the road like a fallout protagonist would do.

Bullshit

Thinking about it, just how fucked would the NCR be if the Eastern Brotherhood hooked back up with the West Coast Branch? I mean, they've got an airship and Good Ol' Liberty Prime, as well as any tech and weapons they've recovered from the Capital Wasteland and Commonwealth. Not to mention that the Eastern Brotherhood has less qualms about recruiting outsiders (one of the few Lyons reforms that seems to have stuck) which means that the major advantage the NCR had that allowed them to beat the Western Brotherhood; superior numbers, no longer applies.
>>
>>316559304
If I remember right you were limited to 100% in Fallout 1 (maybe 200%) but yeah F2 you could go to 300% (1 skill point = 1 point (2 if tagged) to 100%, then 2 skill points per = 1 point (2 if tagged)to 200%, then 3 (or was it 4) = 1 point (2 if tagged) to 300%

You don't even really need to min/max. The level 20 perks in 2 are very broken all on their own.

My battles pretty much went like this:
1. Walk up to enemy using free action points.
2. Punch enemy once in the nuts or nut equivalent.
3. Enemy is insta-killed no matter what and their heart explodes.
4. Get all my action points back for doing this.
5. Do it again.

Post-apocalyptic San Francisco is taken over by Chinese that made that city their home. They are probably one of the more advance settlement due to Chinese reverse engineering and they have a super computer they call the Emperor.

Courier is the strongest one, skill wise.

Lone wanderer has the most versatile skill set.

Multiplayer for that was awesome for college LAN. All those different races / animals with different perk rules.

Dogs got a perk every level. Could even be a deathclaw or ghoul (did they get a perk every level ? I just remember the perk that allowed you to grow a quasi tree, and the next level made it give fruit that would heal people)
>>
>>316559581
You're right.
But this isn't about who is the most powerful anymore but who has the most powerful allies.
And there it's not a fucking question since in most cases the Courier doesn't only have the Big MT tech but also an army of upgraded securitons at his disposal.

Best Legacy
Chosen One

Most Powerful in 1vs1 combat
Chosen One

Most powerful allies
The Courier

F4 shat on the lore so hard

I was hopeful to see reference to the enclaves presence in the east because of the X01 armour, but you find it locked away in prewar buildings in the middle of nowhere. Either the enclave flew in and locked them away there for 0 reason, or bethesda has just shat on the lore becuase the advanced power armour was a post-war development on the other side of the continent.
The amount degradation here is insane. The enclave armour isnt something representitive anymore, its just some >LOL high grade loot for the casualzz
that randomly spawns in the middle of nowhere

Oh and Van Buren isn't really canon anymore. Most of those content were recycle with New Vegas anyways. Otherwise, we wouldn't have Graham but instead, and evil ass fucktard Hangman and instead of Caesar as the "greater evil", we get the smartest man alive to fight against instead in a space station. It's kind of sad that Harold will never get his happy ending in that version of the game or visit his vault and his plant goddess.

Not that Ive found. The armour just spawns on frames in certain locations when you reach a certain level. Im so annoyed that because of the black/white nature of F3 and now F4 that you arent allowed to join the most advanced and impressive faction in the wasteland.
Now all we can do is hope like hell the DLCs might include something about them.

So, is FO4 entirely nerfed so that hipster casuals can congratulate themselves for being so good at it? I was psyched for a Boston based Fallout, because I'm from there and wanted to burn Cambridge and Allston to the ground, but I decided to hold off when player reviews started coming in.

It looks like it's totally dumbed down and nowhere near as nuanced or based on character building as it's predecessors.

My Courier got a Super Mutant, a Ghoul Jazz singer, and a mute lesbian through the Sierra Madre, I think he can get me cross country.

I'm not saying it's safe, but there have to be roads people use to travel about, it wouldn't be like a constant warzone. In fact it would probably be mostly quiet if you stay away from populated areas, not much different from any other long, boring hike. Stay clear of the wildlife, stay out of sight of anything humanoid, and we should be fine until it comes time to enter any city limits.

The courier can have a ridiculous amount of cybernetic upgrades by the end of the game, with either an improved or replaced brain, heart and spine alongside the regular stat boosting implants.

Then they also can have the orbital laser gun and the red glare which are easily some of the most powerful weapons in the fallout series.

>>316560558

The Perk Chart is a step backwards in character development but it is not entirely garbage. It's a lot like an upgraded skyrim leveling system with perk levels being level gated, they also integrated a lot of new vegas and FO3 perks into the perk levels so its at times like leveling an old skill and getting a tied in perk at the same time. Its not the best system but its a lot better than I was expecting. Magazines found in the world work as a sorta extra perk system now i.e. read an issue of Grognak and get +5% crit damage in melee, they are mostly bland like this.

Im about 30 hours in on Survival and havent had major issues in dealing with anything, the leveled area system works like Oblivion and when working through quest lines you will get brought into more difficult areas the further into the line you get. The best part in my opinion is the fire fights can last a rather long time (health sponges on enemy ai) and can turn in a second for or against you from a clever flank or nade or another faction deciding to join the fight. I see a lot of people complain about the Health pools of enemies on survival but i enjoy the challenge when its actually challenging. I think the hate is coming from the change to the skill system as everything else feels like business as usual for beth and though I miss the thought you could out into characters in past Fallout games I do not find myaelf hating the system.

This was during the time when Bethesda still hold some RPG credibility because of their success with Morrowind, despite the Oblivion shitfest. Well, at least he manage to give Wildstar some decent lore before he left for another company.

From what I saw in another interview, it looks like his main complaint was in how previous elements were reused and the writing. Outside of that, he seemed to think the SPECIAL adaption in an FPS-ish game was neat, along with some of the other things brought into 3D.

It seems he actually liked 3 despite everything.

Wonder how he feels about 4.

well fallout 4 protag has access to x-o1 and t51b which are the 2nd best armors, if we are comparing games you can pretty much ignore the fact that the armor takes fusion cores or that the defense values are totally different because they are just different games with different numbers and it's technically the same armor

just going by the shit that they survive and in game shit probably the courier.
but if we take a logical look at it and assume that they could potentially killed just as easily as all the random raiders and shit you kill its probably a tie between courier and Fallout 4 guy depending on whatever endings are cannon.
and assuming that the endings that result in them being the most powerful are cannon here is what they have
>courier can potentially be the guy in charge of new vegas and he has fuck tons of Death machine securitrons to at his disposal as well as potentailly the guys and Tech from big MT to help him

Lone Wanderer isn't even close to the feats of the Vault Dweller or Chosen One

The mutants in 3 are literally retards and unorganized and can't even fuck up the sorry excuse that is the BoS in 3. In 1 they are smart, organized, have Nightkin, have a fucking military base and easily wipe out the Brotherhood of Steel once they get moving. if you aren't fast enough they wipe the entire fucking wasteland.

The Enclave in 2 are at the peak of their power, with everything they ever fucking invented in pristine condition. The Enclave Armor in 3 is weaker than the T51.
>>
>>316560513
Theyre likely not as abundant as before. This game takes place years after Fallout 3, so not only were the Enclave beaten back in the Mojave, but they were also beaten in DC. How many more members could they have?

in a cutscene especially all laws are enforced since gameplay isnt a factor. unless nuclear bombs somehow dont have the same effects in fallout as they do in our world (hint: they do) then this is a stupid and lazy piece of writing that is typical of bethesda

they could have very easily written something that made sense and conveyed the same message, but no, they had to blow their wad and have the bomb literally go off in the distance

I don't know how fast a nuclear bomb's blast wave actually moves but the explosion itself was at least 5 miles away from your location and the lift started moving as soon as it went off, you only have to be under the surface to not feel the effects of the shock wave and heat and it's reasonable they could make it in time.
