Who's the best companion?
They were all shit. Especially Piper.
Curie's voice is the only redeeming feature about any of them.
The best companion is nobody.

>>321555959
No, buddy, I'm stating it directly.
>>321555352
just like real life
I thought Nick was the coolest, but I always prefer to be alone in these types of games and they actually reward you for going alone with the Lone Wanderer perks.
>>321553984
Piper
>>321553984
Belathor
Hancock

This, fallout companions are shit and wont let me do my stealth archery properly.

I honestly felt sorry for him, what a poorly implemented companion character. It would've been more honorable if he just fought me to the death.

Well niggers, i think >>321555352 is right.
Because the game isn't about roleplaying or choices anymore, you just play out a single, mono-railed plotline for all companions. The interface, the interactions, the dialog, the lines spoken... all of it is shit.
The dialog wheel and the voiced PCs impose too many budget cuts, shortcuts, and outright shit design decisions.
At least Obsidian had meaningful companions. This one? Nick maybe but he's all rebelling about being Nick.
Curie? Cute, but holy shit nigger, why want to be a synth, when you could just get further upgrades? Oh wait, faggots wanted polyamourous romances.
And you got... McCready from LITTLE LAMPLIGHT FUCK YOU GUY, Piper HATE NEWSPAPER, Strong MILK, Codsworth more than a Cod, Cait who is so one dimensional it cuts me(Cait sith anyone?), Hancock who's a pretty Cooul guy but meaningless overall, Danse the waifuest waifu of the fraternity of irony, Deacon being generic good guy fodder, etc.
Obsidian had good companions. The party system is horribly shit, only one companion per gameplay, etc... We'd be better off with old CRPG-esque party systems and interaction, as that would at least provide some dimension to these cardboard cutout motherfuckers. Oh, and F4 would have to be an actual RPG for it to work, of course.

All the New Vegas companions suck except Boone, Raoul, and Cass.
>>321556910
I didn't like any of the companions in NV other than Arcade Gannon tbqh. There really wasn't much depth in them either he doesn't even respond to you killing all the followers. Even in Fallout 4 they'll freak out and turn on you if you start murdering people and they're a moralfag companion.
>>321557263
Don't forget ED-E & Rex & sometimes Arcade.
>>321557263
>>321557279
>B-but NV companions suck, because my exceptions don't count! B-but it's true!
> Boone, Raoul, Cass, Arcade
That's more than F4, the shit game, can tout.
Fallout 3 was the same as Fallout 4.
> Charon, Fawkes, Dogmeat, Cross, Butch, Clover, Gutsy Robot Sergeant, Jericho
> 6 tied to karma
> All of them complete shit
> F3's ending invalidates most companions
> Then comes the even more retarded DLC, which adds the real ending
I fucking hate Bethesda fallouts.
Come the fuck on, give it to Obsidian or CDPR, update the role with former Black Isle devs, and release a fully fledged CRPG adventure.
I'm getting fucking tired of the
"One or two members in a party only, at best 3 with dogmeat as nonhumanoid." shtick.
In general, i'm getting sick of the "you are the chosen one" trope, and it's getting to mindnumbingly irritating levels with the:
- Vault Dweller
- Sole Survivor
- Courier
God damnit, i want to be a regular tunnel snake who gets sucked in for some really awesome shenanigans.
Or maybe i'm just too jaded to enjoy fallout anymore, Bethesda with their übershitty everything not helping a bit.
>>321557612
Arcade is boring as fuck and the only reason anyone likes him is because he's a gay dude whose entire personality isn't based around him being a gay dude.
>>321557872
okay bud thanks for sharing
>>321558128
So, he has more going on than being a gaywad (the BioWare syndrome) or being lelsorandumb(again bioware syndrome), or being a one-dimensional cardboard cutout(the Bethesda syndrome)?
Arcade is:
1. a follower
2. A scientist type of guy
3. Cares for his people
4. Has opinions on the world
5. Can be sold as a slave
6. A former Enclave member
And somewhere, down the list, if you go full faggot/gay, he admits after prying. Yeah, he's so boring. Totally like those F4 and F3 companions. Or KOTOR1's Carth. ME's Kaidan. Really, totally.
>>321556809
I didn't know you could still make hancock your companion after robbing him.
>>321559058
>>321556809
This is also a big reason i hate F4.
I either gets bug outta the ass, glitches and crashes, or shit writing.
In this case, when i entered the safe house, there was no dialog with Fahrenheit, i couldn't talk Bobbi out of it, and had to slaughter them.
Then after finishing and getting paid, Bobbi glitches on me as hostile. I leave, i get Hancock blabbering, i go along with it because fuck Bobbi if the game didn't give me the chance, and now i hear that i can side with the others.
FUCK YOU F4. FUCK YOU SERIOUSLY.
all of them where bland as fuck.valentine and handcock where the only ones i found somewhat likable.
>>321559491
F4 is the most stable fallout game I've ever played at launch.
Faggots still playing Fallout 4? Just kill yourself already.
Play a better game like Witcher 3 instead of the Beth garbage.

worst girl tbqh
>>321556049
is there even a point to playing this again? or should i just wait for the DLC and KIT?
Is it possible to finish the handle with all companions on your side? I know you have to pick a side l8kr in NV and each faction has a companion. I'm probably going to do Railroad or Minutemen so can I do that without losing Danse, X6 and Deacon/Preston?
>>321562547
There's no point to playing any videogames. Go do something productive instead.
>>321562689
>handle
Oh Fuck you phone I meant game
>>321562689
No it's impossible to not lose as least one companion in the main quest.
>>321562820
>There's no point to playing any videogames. Go do something productive instead.
but i do. isnt the point to playing is to relax?

i'd say nick since they seem to put the most work into him seeing how he's needed for the first half of the game and he's got a decent backstory
or curie since she's a qt
