Who's your favorite companion of Fallout? Pic related, this funny mother fucker.
>> "Haha, too fun."
>> "Next time, put up a fight."
Saw him take down a deathclaw all by himself. So fucking glad I got this guy.
>>
>guy
>>
>>318056173
Your point being? I'm sorry, let me fix this. "Super Mutant."
>>
Who is the better waifu? ED-E or Piper
>>
>>318056119

The Albino Deathclaw from FO2 was the best

He never gave a shit about what I did and even better,wasn't a goddamn Dog Dogmeat from 4 is second place though
>>
>>318056342
ED-E was quiet and wasn't talking about newspapers. So I would say ED-E. Plus ED-E is the most useful with a workbench and ammo crafting thing.
>>
Funny? he just yells constantly like a child. how is that funny?
>>
>>318056513
Oh yeah, I remember that guy. I am trying to remember if he was from Vault 13 or not. With the intelligent death claws I mean. It is a shame you couldn't save them all.
>>
>>318056623
Its the way he yells that is hilarious. To me, he was the best tank in fallout history. That fucker took on deathclaws by himself and destroyed shit so easily. Plus, I love his background.

He's fucking terrible, though.
>>
>>318057845
Dogmeat in 3 is worse, fucker would always get in the way of my shots and die, eventually I gave up and just kept him dead
>>
>>318058235
The "Puppies!" perk is even worse because all the other companions besides Faux will always think Dogmeat is following you even if he or one of his puppies is sittin outside Vault 101.

You're probably thinking of Lilly. There's nothing to suggest that Fawkes is female.

What the fuck, what world do we live in where this is considered good?

Will there ever be a fag character that doesn't want your d right off the bat? Victoria is a lesbo and she doesn't pull that fucking shit.

Seriously, fuck this world.
>>
>>318058235
What the fuck version of Fallout 3 are you playing? The only time I've EVER seen Dogmeat die is when he ran into a really condensed minefield with some faggot talking on a speaker. He's fought off 2 death claws on his own, and only lost half his HP.

Dogmeat in 4 is literally the worst companion. The best thing he can do is sometimes bite people's arms and hold them there. Otherwise he's shit.
>>
>>318059501
Anon did you take the gay perk

Aside from a few throwaway comments that suggest he's into men, he doesn't bring it up unless you've got confirmed bachelor.
>>
>>318059501
He only hits on you if you have Confirmed Bachelor and start hitting on him first.

I want to roam the Mojave, with Fallout 4's graphics and engine, and have Curie and ED-E at my side. Is that so much to ask?

I really wish you could roam with dogmeat and another companion in 4. Maybe it would make the game even more easy mode but I don't care. I just want to wander the wasteland with my dog and my waifu.

ED-E is a dude. His name is Eddy.

Probably not. It's more blatant in the DLC stories but letting go is like the main theme of the whole game.

Worthless dumbass bullet sponges who run around with their shitty weapons - only Curie has a good basic weapon (Laser Rifle)
You have to give them new ones and make sure they constantly have ammo so they don't run out of it in the middle of a fight and e.g Cait charges in with a fucking shotgun.

In short: "Bethesda AI is utter shit - more news at 6. A report on how we think water might be wet."

New Vegas' Rex > FO3's Dogmeat

Also Lily from NV is objectively the best companion
>>
>>318063880
Some of the companions are interesting characters but as always the ai is dumb as bricks. Like every other game they're there to be your waifu/husbando and pack mule.

Heh. In my first playthrough I took Confirmed Bachelor because I figured there's more men than women in the Mojave (damage bonus). I put around 150 hours into this character before I came to terms with the fact that he was a homolusting fag.

It's an auto-doc, stupid. There are 6 or 5 of them in the Villa Clinic and you can use all but one to heal your limb damage and give you a shot of adrenaline. Also it was Dean who tricked you, that bastard.

>tfw all of this gun making is a fucking dissapointment
Maybe it would be fun if there would be more than like 8 fucking weapons in the whole game

Not to mention in NV you always had many options with different pros and cons no matter what your playstyle was

Want to be a sniper?

Varmint rifle if you want low power but light and plentiful ammo, and its unique version was capable of gettinf 100% crit chance

Hunting rifle if you want good damage with semi-rare ammo and good weapon condtion and highest scope magnification, it's unique version rewarded you with higher damage in exchange for no scope

Sniper rifle for slightly less damage and shitty weapon condition but faster rate of fire and silencer, unique version was a straight upgrade but without the silencer

AM rifle for highest damage but rarest, heaviest (gun was pretty heavy too) and most expensive ammo and slowest rate of fire

Now in 4 it's
Either pipe shit no one uses because its inferior in every way or hunting rifle in 3 calibers, no reason not to use 50 because lol no weight

Uniques are straight upgrades instead of trade offs and you need to grind for them instead if finding them
