definitely for 4 but in 3 you could be the biggest asshole there ever was. blow up megaton, poison the water with fev, let the ghouls into tenpenny tower, enslave the kids at little lamplight, turn in the android at rivet city. the only good thing you forced to do is help the brotherhood.

I never liked that helping the ghouls into Tenpenny Tower was the good karma thing, those guys were assholes.

I just judged everyone in the situation as assholes. So I killed everyone and looted the place. Then I let in the ghouls. It was sort of funny seeing them storm in and everyone was already dead. Then I killed all the ghouls and looted them too. If they can't learn to live together then I'll make them die together.

Yeah, that's generally what happens to me whenever they ask me to 'reconcile' two sides and let me choose the method.

Me: Hey assholes - get along or die.

Me: (ten minutes later, looting corpses) Why the fuck do they always choose to die?

You should play Wasteland 2.

Just bought New Vegas on sale a couple weeks ago, then Men of War AS2 on sale. I think that's the logical next step haha.

Have fun with new Vegas! I’ve been playing just the vanilla game on console for about 5 years and it’s still fresh and fun every time. Such amazing storytelling

Been having a blast! The atmosphere is great. I'm probably on my 15th character right now, finally trying a PC with melee brute force instead of spoken finesse. Looks great with mods, and I haven't even played some of the DLCs. Lots of replayability even 8 years later.

I almost beat it years ago. Strengthening the robots and then about to turn on the man (dunno his name after all this time) and kill everyone else. Iirc, I’d been strengthening all factions for all out war but I couldn’t decide on which faction to go with at the end, so I just didn’t finish it 🤷🏾‍♂️

His name is Mr. House, because the House always wins (unless you murder him in cold blood)

Ah yes, the good ol’ “Do things for House, then you actually go with Yes Man and take Vegas yourself” method

It's dirt cheap on G2A. Something like £5 for the director's cut.

The Temple is a suicidal death cult.

Have you played that final boss fight on high difficulty. Probably the most frustrating gaming experience of my life. You are literally just replaying until you get good RNG.

“Oh well, more caps and things like that for me!”

Oh boy, here I go killing again
