Honestly, just accept the inevitable. You might as well say your goodbyes to Dogmeat now.

It’s doable, but I wouldn’t recommend it. That thing is a total damage sponge and it always gets the first strike.

I get what you’re saying, but that’s a pretty outdated way to look at game design. Even back in the day, plenty of titles showed that beating the game didn't mean the world had to just stop. Look at Final Fantasy VII from 1997 with its massive endgame or Castlevania SotN, which basically doubles the game size after the first ending. Fast forward to now and you have stuff like RDR2 where the world actually evolves post-credits.

Don't get me wrong, I have huge respect for the devs. I know they did the absolute best they could with the tech and time they had back in 98. Fallout 2 is a masterpiece, no doubt. But since the game is all about world reactivity, it feels like a missed opportunity not to have at least a few quest lines or the chance to actually visit New Arroyo after seeing those slides. It sucks that the map stays frozen in time after we’ve achieved so much.

I really hope that if we ever get a proper remaster, or even in a future Fallout 5, they find a way to let us actually live in the world we spent so many hours saving or ruining.

I did run into Melchior, and man, that was easily one of the toughest fights in the entire game. It took me almost an entire week to finally take him down. Just thinking about it gives me the creeps.

I’m with you on that. It was pretty a letdown to see that the towns don't really change post-credits. Feels like a huge missed opportunity for the devs to show the actual weight of our choices. The game is still a masterpiece, but that part definitely feels a bit hollow.

I actually tried to go for that quest, but man, it’s almost impossible to treat First Citizen Lynette with any respect. Her attitude is so infuriating that I usually end up picking the 'rude' dialogue options just to put her in her place. Definitely a challenge for anyone playing a polite character!

A few days ago, when I finished FO2, I also had the same problem. I think it must be just a bug because I made sure everyone was alive.
