Corzaa posted:Can you give Virgil's serum to Strong? Virgil's serum only works on one specific strain of the FEV, and on the terminals in the lab, they posit that finding a cure is even harder when combined with the fact that wastelanders have been exposed to radiation. Essentially it's lucky it worked on Virgil, and he says it will take him 10 more years to develop it any further.

Sometimes it really annoys me how you rarely get any actual choices in the quests. I just finished the "Building a Better Crop" quest and I'm pretty sure there was no alternative there to helping the institute, and it seems that the best outcome is you convince an innocent guy he's crazy while leaving a synth impostor in place. The game just gets so dumb once you penetrate the institute. "hey you guys are kinda fuckin' assholes and I don't want poo poo to do with you" "alright that's cool but you're gonna do these missions for us real quick thanks" Edit: They probably should have just programmed the game to CTD as soon as you meet Father Gobblecoque fucked around with this message at 16:48 on Dec 24, 2015 |

Well guess it's time to send Strong to some backwater settlement I'm never going back to because I'm not giving up power armor for some retard super mutant. strong likes it when you kill things. you don't need to even remotely worry about pissing him off too much because you can just kill some stuff and he'll begin to love you again

Is there a bug with the Graygarden robots becoming hostile? I didn't have any power armour and Codsworth was with me. I approached them from the house nearby and they all came storming over. I couldn't even outrun them, so had to kill them. Codsworth got mad at me even though he did most of the fighting.  Do they ever respawn or anything? I didn't even get the chance to speak to them about the quest so can't ally and use their workbench.

Yeah, that's not an actual commitment, I chose "side with the railroad" and there were no consequences with my Brotherhood relationship, it's just a really stupid presentation of dialog options, but that's a big part of the Fallout 4 experience anyway. The upshot is you can lie, you just don't have the Fallout I/II dialog distinction between honesty and subterfuge.

The downside of lying is that the game does not consider you to have lied- it automatically treats everything you say wrt the major faction decisions as the truth without even considering your current alignment/quests. There's no way to infiltrate one side in the name of the other. Which sucks hard.

RC Cola posted:Which ending is the least bad? From a playing afterwards perspective. Is it worthwhile to rule the institute As far as I can tell it does basically nothing. You get those weird support grenades and stuff and maybe a discount in your faction shop, I can't remember, but it doesn't actually seem to give you anything else to do. Doing the thing in the spoiler doesn't actually give you a choice, it's basically just a dumb title to say "I finished the faction missions." If you want spoilers going with the institute makes you destroy the brotherhood airship, and vice versa, so anything that might have been in them is largely inaccessible, but apart from that it does nothing. There's no actual leadership choices or anything you can make though, which is really one of the most disappointing things. I'm the leader of an organisation that doesn't actually do anything and I have no option to change that.

Wow, the post-Kellog main quest is bad. Like holy poo poo, it manages to be bad in every possible way, I'm kinda stunned actually. I guess they wanted to change up the usual formula of "hey hero, there's a big bad Enclave/Dragons/Dagoth Ur, go kill it because you're the chosen one" but I dunno I guess Bethesda lacked the imagination, competence, or time to make any of it work.

You'd think that but there's a second quest in the game with a very similar premise that is supposed to be very serious with emotional catharsis so its not like the kid in the fridge is a wacky easter egg quest.

Maybe I just missed the chance to ask, can Bullet explain WHY he wants the kid, or how he knew he suddenly existed. Like, did he know the kid was in the fridge and was saving him or something? Did I accidentally steal this guys lunch or what? Did he see me open the fridge and get all 'I was going to eat that mummy!' I don't know man, it was just so loving dumb...

He says it's something like "ghouls don't tire as easily or age or something something... more durable, work them harder, etc". He knows the kid exists because the kid is right there next to you. Like, I know Bullet is conveniently scripted to appear there, but that quest is dumb for plenty of other reasons besides Bullet. I like that Bullet's plan at the end involves being out in the open, alone, to threaten and coerce the family to give up the kid, giving you the opportunity to utterly kill the poo poo out of him. And then and only then does his backup team come out to avenge his death or whatever. Why couldn't he have set them up around the house and surrounded it first? If you have strength in numbers you don't go toe-to-toe with a wasteland merc and hide away your backup until after you're dead.

Why did he not just shoot the lock off sometime between 200 years ago and the moment you shoot the lock off? Why did nobody else ever hear that kid constantly yelling from behind a fridge door and do something about it? How did that kid spend 200 years locked in there without going crazy or turning feral, or just dying from his body shutting down or whatever? Also I thought ghouls actually did age, they just aged really really slowly. gently caress that entire quest. Just gently caress it.
