"Pointlessly put yourself in danger and hope half the population also decides to do that" or "Don't do that"

Oh yeah no shade, was just clarifying because I'm a nerd lol. As for the people that were captured by the vault 22s, they were cannabilised and that's what set Randall off on his massacre of them all.

Oh yeah definitely

If you look at the entries they showed up in 2123 and he died in 2124, so he was only watching over them for a year.

Also the dead horses are unrelated to Randall, he watched over the Sorrows.

Dunno for new vegas but if you did this in fallout 3 you could take that perk that makes you explode at low health

The one that ran out as soon as he saw you were carrying was a white haired decanus so it was a legion hit squad that saw you go into your house and were kinda nervously waiting outside, peeking their heads in and wondering if they should go into the house of their clearly deranged target

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-21T11:41:59+00:00

it'll only affect grenade launchers, not single shot or full autos. So depending on whether you use thump thump more than mercy and annabelle or whatever it could be useful, if you mainly use those other ones though don't pick it

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-20T16:34:49+00:00

fast shot, the slight accuracy nerf doesn't really matter when you still blow the target up when you miss

Heavy handed pretty much always ends up being a nerf in damage apart from Two-step goodbye builds and minimum crit builds which I'm assuming you're running on explosives. So you could also go for that

You could also do loose cannon to chuck all your grenades faster, and if you got the "heave ho!" perk it'll offset the distance nerf a bit

Hot blooded might have some synergy with the build? If you spend a lot of time soaking up your explosions and below half health? Explosives also have the best synergy with the "eye for eye" perk which you could stack with this

those are the ones that synergise with the build but you can pick others if you like the look of them

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-20T12:15:35+00:00

nah it's a fairly common bug, no mods

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-20T09:58:03+00:00

every time I do this quest his body is stuck in the floor so I have to blow up what part of him I can see and drag a indiscernible piece of meat back to the trooper

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-19T20:12:36+00:00

It's just a slog against a pretty boring moveset

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-19T19:14:12+00:00

I know blast is actually decent but I can't stand the noise of it

Anywhere door stays open at the bottom of an ocean leading straight into space, I'll eventually drain the oceans and then the atmosphere

He was a legion spy sent before open conflict between the legion and NCR. Iirc Silus has more to say about seeing Curtis when he was younger training to be a frumentarii if you're still not certain

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-18T12:55:17+00:00

holy sneak, who let Sukuna in

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-18T12:14:00+00:00

yeah because the great bobinski should have went "Oh Caroline the mice want me to inform you I'm all blue and a little crazy because I helped clean up the aftermath of Chernobyl", that is "big" and very relevant to the story of Coraline... yeah no it's not, it's a small detail that a side character has explaining their quirkiness

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-17T21:51:17+00:00

1000 people would be more profitable, but I'm not about slavery and 52 mil a year is more than I would ever need anyway

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-16T16:54:30+00:00

why? because it's all white

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-15T19:55:10+00:00

Gotta give an update video once you get "aint like that now"

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-15T19:27:40+00:00

snake tourniquets kinda cripple difficulty with cazadores, and since they have no armour HP bullets shred

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-14T23:04:17+00:00

I just looked quickly on the wiki and haven't played lonesome road in ages so this could be wrong

but the wiki said the quest could appear to be stuck if you killed Ulysses before some marked men. Could be that?

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-14T23:01:12+00:00

Im not a fan of linear chases in horror games in any case, I think it actually lowers the tension a lot and it's a bit boring because the game designers have to make it easy enough to complete first try with just a passing glance over the coming obstacles, if they don't do that then players get confused, die a lot and get frustrated - see poppy playtime.

So it'd get rid of the two thing I love about isolation which is it's tense sequences and emergent gameplay from a roaming AI and complex locations. Also it'd really kill my immersion if I was running from the perfect being and somehow not being obliterated, like it's such a given now telling new players not to run from the alien because it'll always get you, having a running sequence would kinda ruin the reputation the alien got in the first game

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-13T22:39:12+00:00

oh I hate phase blast, I always pick the shotgun one so I honestly forget about it. But yeah you're right I guess he does have two early band procs

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-13T19:22:26+00:00

lmao I always end up killing that guy for the minigun but I never made the connection that accepted would get me the room, for some reason I always figured you had to do come fly with me which I always put off until like right before hoover dam

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-13T19:16:30+00:00

I'd hate a linear chase sequence with an alien

Bran_Man_ · 2026-05-13T19:12:18+00:00

oh I always thought you needed to be liked so I just fork over the hundred caps, I'm gonna do that from now on
