When will this meme end? Lonesome Road might not have been the best DLC. I wouldn't say it was worse than HH but I don't judge those who say that.

But it's still a good DLC overall.

>m-muh forced origin
There's literally nothing you're forced to accept other than 'your courier made a delivery to the Divide at least once'. And even then you're allowed to RP your character as disbelieving Ulysses, you can accuse him of having you mixed up with the wrong courier. They say Ulyssess' motivation is vague but I feel that's a fairly smart design choice: having Ulysses be a little vague makes it much more easier to work into your own backstory of exactly what it is you did or what he's angry with you for.

>m-muh liner corridor
Dead Money wasn't much more free-roaming, it gave marginally more room for options with which of the three companions you go for first but besides that it was greatly more streamlined than either OWB or HH and it's still lauded as a great DLC for its story telling and atmosphere, which LR manages to do well enough.

I'd honestly give that to DM and give best story to OWB, since the reveal makes everything fall together incredibly well and there's a lot of explanations for things found in OWB. Plus DM's story is basically ripped off of The Treasure of the Sierra Madre so it's not exactly anything particularly revolutionary or interesting.

>>341097647
The only part of DM's gameplay that felt bad to me was the vault platforming towards the end. I never do stealth unless it's with the holograms since the Ghost People's perception is literally broken so I guess you're right there but it was never much problem for me to wipe out ghost people when I had to.

But my opinion probably doesn't mean much since I liked the speaker/collar mechanic.

Retard dialogue is practically easter egg tier but since they didn't even have enough time to finish the Legion I'm glad they sacrificed full retard speak in the end if it meant more actual content.

I always wondered that.

I'm not bothered about the low int NPC responses, I just wish the normal dialogue was changed so it reads more phonetically and misses out key grammar points, almost like caveman speech.

You delivered a package there. The package contained a machine that, when turned on, activated a bunch of nukes in their silos and blew up the place

This is what stops OWB from being god tier in my opinion. Bullet sponge Nightstalkers and really boring game world. It's driven by it's writing, which stands it ahead of LR and HH.

DM is still the best though because it blends the two perfectly.

Hate to temporarily distract from a good game in favor of a mediocre one but I missed Bethesda's E3 show yesterday:

It was about as bad as you could get, honestly.

Give me one reason to not support the NCR, one reason that doesn't come down to:
>Muh brahmin barons and corruption
As someone with influence and outside those cliques you're in a perfection position to usurp them

>B-but they're over extended in the Mojave
The quicker the Legion is dealt with the faster that problem goes away, coming to the Mojave and leaving with nothing to show for it is a bigger mistake than coming to the Mojave in the first place.

House has the potential for expansion into Freeside. If the Kings start shooting NCR citizens, then House see's their usefulness. If you consider how untrustworthy the Omertas (and to lesser extent the Tops and Ultralux) had been to House, gaining more allies would be ideal. His securitrons can only travel so far.

General Lee Oliver

The man deliberately mismanages his forces because he's planning to have a single, large battle again the Legion for the future of the region, entirely because he wants to show up the Rangers, who are credited with the victory at the First Battle of Hoover Dam.

Why are they credited? Because in a straight up brawl with the Legion the NCR got its shit pushed in and it was only the efforts of the Rangers and 1st Recon who managed to cripple the Legion offensive and send them running back to Arizona. Oliver wants to recreate this disaster, only with the Rangers in a completely untenable position on the Dam that will get them slaughtered when the Troopers invariably fall back again.

He has his Heavy Troopers back in California guarding ranches against common bandits. He got President Kimball, his dear old buddy, to send the Veteran Rangers down to Baja chasing "ghosts". Both of these assets would be better used killing Legion.

There are manpower shortages across the entire map. McCarran, their headquarters, is practically besieged by Fiends. Nothing is done about Nelson or Cottonwood Cove while the Legion runs rampant in the southern Mojave. Over a thousand soldiers wind up dead every year.

Letting NCR take the Mojave is letting this man, his buddy Kimball and his sycophant Moore, get away with their crimes and making them heroes.

Also, the NCR ending makes it clear that you never really achieve any kind of significant status within the NCR as a result of your actions. I think you get a civilian decoration and they send you on your way. Hell, the Legion at least mints a coin with your face on it or something more significant than the military equivalent to a half-ass pat on the head.

NCR taking the Mojave only reinforces the idea that the way they operate and the way they try to solve their problems is perfectly fine and should be continued.

They need to lose. They need to be kicked back into California, to understand that maybe they should attempt to find solutions for their issues internally instead of constantly expanding, annexing new territories with resources they desire and making up the cost in absurd taxes.

NCR is starting to suffer from its sheer size, expanding further in all directions isn't going to solve that.

He doesn't have the resources to mount a rescue attempt so he asks you to mercy kill them

>>
>>341120023
I guess they wanted someone who wasn't apart of the military to do the mercy kills so that it wouldn't fuck up troop morale to see four dudes crucified and possibly killed in the crossfire in the middle of the town they had to take.

Only way to do that quest is with Boone going full ragemode over the prospect of mercykilling and wiping the whole thing out so you can save the hostages.

I'm sincerely grateful to Bethesda for all this new content for Fallout 4. It's starting to look like it might be New Vegas's equal, though with its' strengths lying with its' improved mechanics and innovations. In particular, the Build-your-own-vault DLC is something I've wanted since New Vegas.

I think once these are all out and refined over 3-4 months of bugfixes, Fallout 4 will finally be out of FNV's shadow.

your system is pretty outdated but that shouldn't affect new vegas much, that engine is pretty bad as is, you best bet is to google your problem and spend a few hours messing with ini files and see how that works.

The Khan Empire ending only has them leech off the Followers for useful information again, it's not an ending where the Followers join or assist them

When it says "reconnect" it's referring to the fact the Followers in the Mojave taught the Khans how to make medicine and found another group further north who didn't know what scum they were. Nothing suggests the Khans actually changed in any way, either. You can make a mostly functional empire out of raiders, just look at the Legion. Just replace absolute brutality with drug addiction

Pretty sure there's supposed to be the Ulysses duster since they got lazy and made it the same as the house one. But anyway, we're fed vague scraps like that on purpose because there is no "canon" courier, it's a blank slate character you can RP any way you'd like. Not even the dude in riot gear is confirmed canon courier, it could just be a ranger.

Flex your imagination a little bit, son.

we can't consider it cannon if it's only concept art, too many things change from concept to release and even then it might not have been the developers full intention.

I was thinking more when people do "canon" runs e.g what best suits what is realistically going to happen e.g the Courier is a Caucasian male who wears the vault 21 suit throughout most of the game. I'm not saying this is canon, but it's the most likely.
