I always do Moira's quests first, and get Dogmeat while he's still useful.

I miss FO3. You guys maka me weep. 

When I get back to my other run, I'll start with Moira's WSG. I already did the radiation part (easy), but I'm not looking forward to the Super Duper mart. Not while I'm still only level 2 or 3. Minefield, either, tbh.

And I need to get Dogmeat.

I think I might head to DC to recruit Charon, this time around. I had Fawkes in my other runs, and noticed that there was a terribly annoying "bounce" while running, while he's in tow. It's like the camera keeps adjusting to his fat butt.

Also, my hubs recruited Charon, based on my advice (stuff I'd heard from you guys), and he just thinks he's the bee's knees. He put him in power armor, so his voice sounds super funny.

I love Charon! I always save my caps and get him ASAP. He's also really the best companion, though I never had the evil karma followers so I can't judge there.

I loved Fawkes. Only thing I didn't love was getting to the radiation chamber at the end and after asking him to kindly proceed, having him respond that it was 'my destiny' or some other such balderdash, lol.

Dogmeat is fairly invincible at high levels, so I've always found him useful, although I like to use all the companions and exchange them depending on the region.

I still have bad memories of trying to keep Dogmeat alive while fighting that SM Behemoth outside of Galaxy News Radio. The behemoth completely ignored my pc, and went right for Dogmeat the whole time. It was a comedic cycle of Dogmeat attacking, getting knocked down, and me applying a Stimpak. Rinse and repeat. I have no idea how we survived that debacle.

Poor Dogmeat. I remember fighting the behemoth with the WE mod and hard settings while I had crippled limbs, low strength and a fat man. It was a good day.

[happy_daiz]

Limping around on crippled limbs is always fun. But if you can get through it, and accomplish something like that, 'tis a good day, indeed.

The Choo-Choo gun was pretty fun in FO3.

You know, I really like the environments of FO3, but the one thing that absolutely stands out in contrast to New Vegas is crafting and reloading. Having the only option of looting or buying ammo is a real set back, not to mention not being able to craft weapon repair kits, stims and other useful items, or being able to apply weapon mods. I'll say it again, New Vegas really got that whole 'everything you find or loot is useful' thing right.

Good thing I can mod in some of that functionality. I added in CALIBR to extend more options for ammunition (7.62 x 51, .416 and .50 cal are particularly useful ) and just found a mod for an ammo reloader for the house in Megaton as well.

But FO3 really shows on replay how limited it is in crafting functionality. I craft two things, and two things only: Nuka Nades and Bottlecap Mines. That's about it.

[happy_daiz]

^ Yeah, in the playthrough I picked up last night, I went over to a workbench, and had those two, as well as the Shishkebab, Rock-it-Launcher, and a couple of others, but that's about it. Maybe Railway Spikes? Anyway, certainly nothing all that useful.

What I wouldn't do to be able to make weapon repair kits. And chems.

Crafting in FO3 is behind the times. Kinda like Oblivion, compared to Skyrim. But I suppose it's to be expected. Onward and upward!

I hope they maintain the level of New Vegas crafting in the next game.

[happy_daiz]

Yep, that's my hope as well.

And while I'm asking for stuff, I would love it if my characters could be Skyrimized, cc-wise. In FO3 and NV, they're kind of...well, they're not great, tbh. The character creator and body models are limited. Some movements are pretty jerky. Jumping is laughable, especially if you're in front of an invisible wall that you can't climb, but should be able to.

But alas, here I am nitpicking. I will gladly atone for that, upon confirmation of Fallout 4.

I think, you're going to see improvements in the next FO game comparable to the improvements in ES from Oblivion to Skyrim. More just a gut feel and reasoned prediction than anything. We still don't know what engine they're developing the game on, so I admit to speculating. I would be surprised though if there weren't big improvements in the next game.

EDIT: But they do have to walk a fine line and find the right balance between improving the game visually and functionally and maintaining that old world feel and look.

Anyone know where i find the microwave emitter?

[happy_daiz]

^ Point Lookout DLC, in a reward vault at the end of A Meeting of the Minds, according to the wiki.

Well, I'm gonna go for it then. I'm trying to discover all the locations anyways. So why not look for some radioactive nuka-cola.

Absolutely. If you haven't used Nuka Grenades in FO3, they are pretty much your Go To Explosive when you really need it. You do need some points in Explosives though, and definitely take the Demo Expert perk. They do massive immediate splash damage, and I recommend throwing them in VATS as you can hurt yourself...bad. 

The Quantum Chemist (Broken Steel) perk will allow you to make Nuke Nades with regular Nuka Cola (10 of them).

As you can see, they make short work of one of the toughest enemies in the game (and yes, I had to throw more than one in this case):





Needless to say, there is big-time collateral damage (which can work for you...or against you):







Taking the Adamantium Skeleton and Toughness perks will significantly reduce any damage you might try to deal on yourself, and completely neutralizes all damage from common vehicle explosions. 

Yes, I like Nuka Grenades if you couldn't tell.

I'm fuzzy on the details but you can get 2 of those schematics without doing that quest, and end up better off by the end.

Gotta love sending people to hell in a haze of purple cola.

Anyone ever melee kill a legendary death claw?

I beat it to death with my bare holographic cubes from 12 meters.

But now I want to kill it with bare fists. Though will soften it up first
