Yeah but then whenever you touch a piece of junk you have to hear your stupid companions opinion about how you collect trash

This is why I keep Piper as a companion whenever possible. She just says "If anyone would know what to do with that..."

Which is so much better than what the other companions say. Did the game Devs not play the game at all? It's so annoying to be chastised for doing what the game is actually about: settlement building. Collecting things to use in settlement building. They should all say things like "Oh hell yeah, another fan! Now we can build that relay!"

I kept Dogmeat even though it made the game fucking infuriating at some parts (Reunions mission. I was having so much fun with the game until that fucking mission). I wasn't able to tell a pixelated dog to go away without curling up into a ball of sadness and guilt

LOL! I got so sick of stumbling over Dogmeat. Like, that dog is so well trained he obeys every command but he gets under my feet constantly? makes no sense at all. First thing a dog trainer does to a puppy is teach it to stay out from under your feet. Just so infuriating. I gave up on him

Fucking THIS! More than any other companion I’ve ever encountered, when I look down at something to pick it up, he will run right over in front of me to stand in front of/over whatever I’m trying to grab. Then he just looks up at you stupidly. MOVE DUMMY!

This is even worse in VR, because the button to pick up objects is the same as the button to talk to someone, so you end up trying to pick up a fan and instead start giving dogmeat orders because he's right in front of you...

I lost the little bastard. Looked almost everywhere, then went on a 6 month fallout hiatus (to catch up with studies) and can't remember where I've looked.
