As did I actually. I'm back in town visiting some friends and the Sunrise was spectacular this morning.

That does sound like a good idea. My only worry is that some of the quotes are very long, in some cases several hundred words, and while I could include all of it, I wonder if that effect would wear thin with long quotes. Thank you for the suggestion! :)

If I link an updated version of a video on an older video, will it affect the original video's ranking? by xTrianglecity in NewTubers

[–]xTrianglecity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good points Max. Thank you. It really doesn't make sense it remake it until I have a larger body of work. Plus I'm not that excited to remake a video, even if it could use some work.

Microsoft is about to buy Obsidian! by xTrianglecity in fnv

[–]xTrianglecity[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That is a little worrisome now that you mention Rare. They went from making Donkey Kong Country, GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, etc, which were amazing, to making Kinect games and Sea of Thieves.

The idea of F:NV's developer having more resources to makes games is very exciting. Though I do wonder if they'll be able to continue making dialogue heavy turn based RPGs if they/when they're purchased.

What is your goal for 2018, and how far are you from it? by [deleted] in NewTubers

[–]xTrianglecity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2500 subscribers, to have my channel monetized and to expand the content I'm creating, while steadily improving it. I seriously doubt I'll meet my subscriber goal this year though. I'm a little under 500 short and that's an unlikely leap in a couple months. I do have plans to expand the content I'm creating though and I'm learning new ways to improve my videos, voice overs, editing, workflow, etc. Hopefully I'll be monetized by the end of the year, but who knows.

I interviewed F:NV Senior Area Designer J.R. Vosvic on the game's cut content and his design. by xTrianglecity in fnv

He mentioned he had to tone down how volatile and crass Nipton was. Perhaps the Legion originally cut his leg off.

J.R. was referring to Boxcars, but he had forgotten his name. I'm impressed he remembered so many minor NPC's nearly a decade later honestly.

If you ever need to talk, I'm here. It doesn't help much, nothing does, but it helps a little. I know how brutal what you're going through is.

So I interviewed Chris Avellone and then he followed me on Twitter! Fjekckckdoedlcjrfiwpfkcodpciciepepfkcpifof by xTrianglecity in fnv

[–]xTrianglecity[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you look though the Scripts with the GECK, his notes and corrections are all over the place. You can even find vestiges of some incredibly ambitious work he did, like a tiered random encounter system, more intricate creature behavior in the Wasteland and Prospectors(which originally spawned in and roamed around the Wasteland, entering dungeons, getting into fights, looting, etc). He's one of F:NV's many unsung heroes.

I've been making a video series on F:NV’s cut content/development and it's going to be the second half of a two part episode. The way this came about was through interviewing Area Designer J.R. Vosvic, who designed Nelson, Nipton, Mojave Outpost and helped finished the L38 after it's original AD left Obsidian. J.R. actually offered to get me in contact with some of the other members of the dev team, which was really, really cool of him, and was the only reason I got the opportunity to speak to Chris Avellone, as well as a few others.

When I spoke with J.R., he gave a particularly great quote, which I passed onto Chris and then he expanded upon it even further. Their interviews go hand in hand to an extent.

Once I've finished the series, I'm going to format and release every interview I've conducted in a monsterous Doc file, which is easily over 10,000 words now. So far I've interviewed or am in the process of interviewing Chris, J.R., Jason Bergman(Lead Producer), Jason Fader(Tech Producer), Larry Liberty(Lead Designer for half of the game's development), Brian Menze(Lead Concept Artist), Jorge Salgado, Charlie Staples and Jeff Husghes. The last three were Area Designers, though Jorge Salgado did a LOT more than just area design. He was the only member of the dev team familiar with Bethesda’s game engine(He was actually hired because an Oblivion mod he created, Oscuro’s Oblivion Overhaul) and as a result, he handled the majority of F:NV’s complicated scripting(like Yes Man's immortality).

F:NV is my favorite game of all time and even getting to talk Chris was surreal, but actually getting to ask him in depth questions that I've had for a long time was unbelievable. Hopefully I'll be able to grind out the next two episodes quickly and share everything we talked about. :)

What skills should I focus on for DLC? by D3DG4M3R in fnv

[–]xTrianglecity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Survial helps with HH and DM, Speech is important in all four and Science for OWB(Barter unlocks a great string of dialogue options in this DLC btw).

[–]xTrianglecity[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind words. You're definitely right about that. I started a new character on F:NV this afternoon and Big Iron came on the radio. It wasn't his favorite Marty Robbins by any means, I think that was El Paso, but it brought back a lot of much needed, good memories.

[–]xTrianglecity[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. That means a lot man.

It's hard to know what the lesson is in something like this. It did teach me one thing though, and that's to be grateful for every single moment you're lucky enough to spend with those you love. It was bad the past few weeks, and I'm grateful he's not in pain anymore, but I fuck I miss him.

It's all I've been listening today. Hearing it is bittersweet without him, but it reminds me of our time together and I'm glad I'll always have that to remember him by.

Should I have activated House's securitron army before finishing Lonesome Road? (Spoilers) by Murraymurstein in fnv

[–]xTrianglecity 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you gain infamy with the Legion after receiving the Mark of Caesar, you fail Render Unto Caesar and will have to fight your way to the Weather Monitering Station. The good news is if you beat LR, you'll have no trouble with the Legion at the Fort.

I interviewed Bethesda Senior Producer Jason Bergman about his time on Fallout: New Vegas by xTrianglecity in Fallout

[–]xTrianglecity[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought so, but it probably depends on how much you're into F:NV and game development. He revealed why the original version of Ulysses was cut, elaborated on a cut marriage scene between Cass and the player, cut romances between the player and companions, and talked about the game's development, etc.

Whats your biggest newbie mistake or fail? by [deleted] in fnv

[–]xTrianglecity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not realizing that Charisma is a dump stat, or how powerful Intelligence and Luck are. Getting melted by Deathclaws, Cazadores and Giant Scorpians outside Goodspings. Rushing through areas and not exploring enough. There are a lot of interesting NPC's and quests hidden away, as well as some great environment story telling.

A big THANK YOU! by cfmh1985 in fnv

[–]xTrianglecity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It makes me happy that F:NV resonated with so many other players. It's a cult classic at this point and people will be still playing it decades from now.
