Neurolimal posted:IIRC there's an issue with Bethesda's modular engine where items have dynamic itemID's depending on where in the load order they are placed, making it difficult for other ESP's to reference them. Sort of, but only for objects that are not uniquely handplaced. Every 'type' of object has a base ID, and then individual objects have reference IDs. For things that just randomly spawn in drawers or bodies or whatever, those are generated as needed. For handplaced objects however, they are always the same. Here's a link. But yeah, every object that is a set, guaranteed spawn in the game has a predefined ref ID, so you can always know what that is and reference it. It's why if you look a unique object up on the wiki it will always have a ref ID listed if the page is complete.

This might be a stretch (like doc's doing with his big arms), but the possible answers seem to reinforce the lucky 38 interpretation. "A light in the darkness" - how House views himself. "A bearded man" - how House presents himself. "A mushroom cloud" - House's past and what he partially prevented. "A head on a pillow" - It's where House sleeps, and maybe a commentary on his future success being a dream. Or maybe sometimes two bears high-fiving is just two bears high-fiving.

caesar isnt trying to bring back some dead society. hes trying to eradicate all old culture and replace it with his own. house on the other hand doesent even care about culture, he just wants to get back to science and industry.

House cannot envision a world without himself at the top. The only rebuttal he gives to you questioning his susceptibility to corruption is "My judgment." He only trusts himself to do the correct thing, and since he's obviously right, he has a hard time seeing when someone is about to betray him. Because how could someone be stupid enough to not see how right he is? Caesar on the other hand absolutely is aware of his limitations, which is why he's secretly so desperate to conquer New Vegas and the NCR. He knows he's mortal and he's been suffering from a tumour which is impeding his judgment, so he wants to fast track the conquest and achieve his synthesis before the Legion collapses into infighting that would result from his death. He needs the social change to occur within his lifetime, because his immediate successor would run the Legion's "culture" into the ground in favour of bloodshed.

Byzantine posted:Yeah he can. He saw it destroy itself in nuclear fire. Even then he figures if other people weren't as stupid and just saw how he was right, then things never would have happened as badly. It's someone else's fault the platinum chip was delayed in getting to him. He has no patience for human fallibility and it's always everyone else's fault.

He's basically the protagonist of an Ayn Rand novel, and much like Ayn Rand herself he is an out of touch ghoul with a disdain for poor people and borderline sociopathic tendencies.

Timeless Appeal posted:The actual theme of New Vegas is that we can't linger in the past and have to move on with our lives. It's a theme carried in every single companion storyline as well as the DLCs. The tragedy of House is the man is a futurist who time forgot. He has principles that are decent, but in the end he'll always just be an autocrat trying to recreate a long dead society. He doesn't understand how similar he is to Caesar. yea

I appreciate these different responses, and it's interesting how very different they are. I think Timeless Appeal and Arcsquad12's explanation makes the most sense. While House as unaligned nations or first nations makes a degree of sense due to the conglomeration of tribes under him, and his independence, House as the past (in contrast to the Independent ending's future) makes the most sense to me, as House's ideology adheres to old world tech and beliefs, the game's narration emphasizes House's old world role, and NV's alignments don't quite match the real third world despite the clear resource wars metaphor that's running through things. jk he's Satoshi, deliver his Platinum BTC I always align myself with House or the NCR because although their ideologies might be flawed, both of their approaches to things produce way less death and chaos than the Legion - and the independent ending seems a) oddly detached from the potential suffering it can cause, b) annoyingly fanfiction-y, and c) incomplete due to all the production cuts. Plus House consistently does seem like he's right a good 99% of the time. Now, what does Fisto represent? Discendo Vox fucked around with this message at 21:34 on Apr 15, 2018 |

He gave them an offer and if they didnt like it they could leave. Which the khans for example did. And its not like they doing it because he loves the past, they are doing the pretending to get in tourists. He isnt telling them to love it, hes telling them to do it because its a job.
