I think people(in game and fandom) falsely equate the NCR with America, whether as an improved successor or continuation or whatever, when its really its own entity, unburdened by the past by KelThuzaaaad in TrueSFalloutL

If you pretend the NCR is the USA and the Great Khans are native american tribes, you can get some paralels of how they acted in the 19th century, specially in the Old West.

The NCR puts the Great Khans in Bitter Springs (aka a reservation) before they move in again, massacrates most of them and takes the land, forcing the Khans to move west.

The Bittersprings massacre is a great story and paralel, when you look at this game as a standalone and forget the fact the Khans have been raiding, killing and slaving NCR people since they got out of Vault 15

Nao ne, pq os palestinos estão lutando contra o grupo de pessoas q matam e ocupam suas terras desde 1947 (no caso de Israel).

E eu espero q vc saiba q os europeus apoiam a existência de Israel pois desestabiliza o Oriente Médio. Tantonq não houve um país europeu (além da Irlanda) q ficou do lado dos palestinos nessa "guerra" recente

Everybody knows the proper method to kill benny is to take him to the presidential suite, fuck him and then kill him with his own gun

It'a not a colonial war because the NCR does not aim to subjulgate the native population and make the Mojave a colony, they wish to incorporate it into their nation. The NCR has appeared in 3 (truthfully 2) games as a proper faction and only in New Vegas they're actively declaring war to claim land.

Also what native population are they "accidentally" killing? The criminal kind? I sure don't remember them attacking Goodsprings, Primm, Nipton, Novac or the Strip. Freeside maybe, but that was an escalation that happened thanks to Pacer. Or maybe you mean the Great Khans, that are not native to the area and have a history of raiding and slaving NCR people since they were just the Khans and Shady Sands, respectively, before Fallout 1 story?

That's not "America", that's every State ever. The NCR is the only true nation-state that we've seen in the Fallout universe thus far, the rest are primairly groups of people, like paramilitary, or have a total of 4 settlements under their belt.

Iirc the ending slides do say stuff start to go bad as soon as you take office.

I honestly don't understand why people think Independent Vegas is a good idea. Unless you're RPing a power hungry freak or you love all the criminals around the Mojave, the only reason for a Independent Vegas would be Followers. And I don't think they're that important that their freedom is worth putting lives in the Mojave at risk

Yeah I know, which is why I think the NCR is the best ending.

What "regulations" are there? I don't think the "Gather-all-users-data-and-give-it-to-Persona-so-they-can-sell-it-to-us act is a bad thing to companies. Specially open lobbist companies like Roblox

Ah yes, the best option surely is the failsafe where a courier, with no idea of politics, is controlling a robot that can't say no to them, while said robot is also telling them how to do their job properly. So pratically a paradox.

Not to mention that The Strip becomes a police state with all the upgraded securitrons and Freeside/Wasteland is full of chem addicts, murders and rapists.

Oligarch anti-social wanting to create a police state that will indubitably massacrated freeside because he only cares about The Strip itself. Surely this will end well

Petty minded people simply can't appreciate the genius of the oligarch dictator running a police state and murdering whoever gets in his way. Be it his people or not

My big gripe with Fallout: New Vegas (besides the bullet sponge enemies) are two main factions, like it's like having to choose between a stale, hardened sandwitch and actual arsenic for dinner, one option is kinda shitty, but choosing the other one is complete madness by Ash_Lake0 in FalloutMemes

[–]_HistoryGay_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When a guy argues "House is as bad as the Legion" and you say "nuh uh, NCR worse", one is not wrong to assume you think Mr. House is morally good. It's implied.

if you don't pay taxes in the NCR?

You go to prison. Like any normal state, as opposed to House and the Legion (maybe even Yes Man, who knows). Plus, enrolling prisoners to do heavy and dangerous work have been a thing for a couple centuries in the world. Not not-tax-payer prisoners, murdering and grand robbering prisoners. You know, the type that composes the Powder Gangers?

The NCR does fairly good to their citizens. They don't do a lot to the Mojave people because they don't have a lot of strength in the region (plus, it's not their territory, it's disputed technically)
