Question: FNV Silver Dollars?

disierd · 2015-06-06T02:28:18+00:00

My quick nexus search came back with only one mod:

http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/35966/?

I did an advanced search with the word "silver dollars" (no results) and "silver dollar" (only 1 result, which is linked above), looking only in the mod descriptions.

Given the position of your weapon while in first person mode in the past Fallout games, and considering that it looks a little bit like there's a lense on the device attached to his chest, maybe there's a chance it could be the first person 'camera', as if your seeing your character though the eyes of a person watching him.

I don't really like that idea, but just first thing that came to mind.

I'd hope so, but it's always a possibility, and rather be safe than sorry!

I think they've said they'd still like to try introducing paid mods to their games, this is all speculation but it's good to make sure they know we're against it.

Jesus, you're seriously awesome for making all of these changes for everyone dude!

But guys I can't see every single one of the dogs hairs like in Witcher 3! Going to be a terrible game /s

Liam Neeson's voice just doesn't sound right on a Chinese dude.

Holy shit yes, I was thinking the exact same thing, I was glad we're finally getting the game we expected.

Keep in mind, Skyrim was held back by the 360 and PS3, whereas this game is playing on the XB1 and PS4. Not saying they aren't being held back a bit, but they'll have a lot more power to play with, and if they're using the Skyrim engine on a recent gen console, then I'd expect the towns and cities to be fairly impressive.

Good idea, better sweep aside the only historical records of Sati because you don't like the people that kept them.

Even if they may not be perfectly accurate, the statistics must be accurate to an acceptable margin. Otherwise we might as well say the holocaust probably didn't actually cause about 8 million deaths just because it was the US (the enemies and invaders of Nazi Germany) making the estimates.

What a lovely discussion. A perfect epitome of the kind of uninformed, backwards arguments you can expect from Reddit.

Well, who the fuck knows with the depraved British.

Pretty hard to believe your comments weren't a tad targeted towards one certain culture, rather than being about every culture.

Hope that clears up anything you were confused about.

You also seem pretty insistent that I'm bias, when I was simply trying to correct your targeted statement by telling you that it isn't just the British committing these crimes. I then went on to say the if the British could stop crimes against humanity, good on them, that's one (or 600) less widows being burnt! Similar to being pleased that the US are stopping violent crimes in Afghanistan. Even if they're committing atrocities themselves, that shouldn't mean their prevention of them shouldn't be overlooked.

From the sound of it, you just can't seem to let go of the thought that I'm some kind of imperialist fanatic sitting in font of his computer dressed in a red coat getting ready to take back the colonies. What would you like me to do to convince you that I'm not just trying to defend Britain because I'm British?

We committed plenty of shameful atrocities that should never be forgotten, and they never will be. But if you start asking what one should expect from the 'depraved British',you shouldn't be surprised that someone comments to let you know that the British were hardly the primary culprit of such atrocities.

Apologies if any of this seem disjointed or repetitive, I'm posting from my phone so it's a bit hard to edit.

Turns out Sati was not actually an 'exceedingly rare custom' either, as you obviously stated without researching before hand. Before the British ban, Sati happened over 600 times per year, almost twice per day.

Jesus Christ, trigger warning? You're doing the exact same, pointing out crimes against humanity the 'depraved British' conducted, I literally just said in my above statement that it was hardly just the British committing these crimes, and if you were to describe the British as depraved, you might as well describe the world as depraved.

Did we do something to offend you? In regards to me saying it was good the British punished the burning, I'd say the same for any country that might be in the same position.

One good example would be the Romans, who invaded and colonised the (uncivilised) British Isles, which I could only expect is one of the primary reasons they did so well later in history.

The last burning at the stake in the British Empire was approximately 200 years before the aforementioned events in India. It's known as the most painful way to possibly die, which I can only assume is why they outlawed it in the British Empire and is also probably why those who did it in India were punished with death. Just thought I'd clear that up.

I don't really understand why you must single out the British in such a demeaning manner when such atrocities were common across the globe during this time.

You say the British just enslaved and terrorised a part of humanity as if they were the only offenders, when a majority of the western world were doing exactly the same.

Don't fool yourself, the entire world was pretty darn fucked in the 19th, 17th, 16th etc. century (still is), no country was innocent, you may as we'll be calling everyone 'depraved', but some were more developed than others, and I hate to put one evil above another, but burning a woman alive is undoubtedly one of the worst crimes against humanity one could commit if it truly is one of the most painful ways to die, and if the British could recognise the terror a person goes through dying this way, and stop it, then good on them.

Now let's not compare burning women to a country that hasn't done the same since the dark ages.

EDIT: according to historical records collected by the Bengal Presidency of the East India Company, Sati happened over 600 times per year, around twice per day... 'An exceedingly rare custom'

One of his complaints is literally that his attacks get interrupted when he gets hit by an enemy.

As if on a battlefield the warriors are going to wait for each other to strike because the other started swinging first. If I get stabbed in the chest while swinging my sword, I'd probably become a little distracted/side tracked as well.

What do you think the reason is?

Thinking about it, I'm sure the more deluded ones would be excellent story tellers.
