In the dog-eat-dog world that is Fallout, special pronouns would get you laughed at, or at worst will get you gutted.

Would such a thing even exist in the 1950s-esque America before the bombs?
I mean if you’re a feral ghoul you can hardly tell. Exact reaction of jumping in and dying because you’re freakish looking.

I still remember when I first really fell in love with New Vegas. It was my second playthrough after about two years since the game originally came out and I ended up stumbling upon Veronica and finding out firsthand how much the Brotherhood of Steel were pieces of shit by the end of her quest. I mean yeah, first playthrough they put a bomb collar on me, but seeing as how they were distrustful of outsiders and the NCR, I could let it slide. But goddamn. Felt good killing those Paladins at that Follower Outpost.

It was probably what truly made me want to delve deeper into the world of Fallout which eventually led me to playing the first two games and learning about the roots of people like the NCR, Super Mutants and the Great Khans.

I also remember laughing my ass off when I thought I could try romancing her only for her to reveal she was a lesbian.

Again, it all comes down to if Bethesda did on purpose or if its the case that they just happened to do a retcon that honestly adds to the Interplay lore instead of messing with it.

Also it makes sense Jet manufacturers would know that original Jet was too addicting to be profitable long term so they decreased the effects so its less addicting. Its understandable that Jet can reach the east coast the same way I can buy the wasteland survival guide making its way to the west (since its implied to be actually really fucking good that it was worth bringing it over the other side of the country)
Um, do you know that there are fixers and there is even a serum that treats addiction permanently and that is ""canon"", right?
so yeah, keep jet like crack, sell it, sell fixers, charge niggers for the anti-addiction serum.
it's supposed to be the 50~60's so... and if you play fo3 or ttw, on megaton if you go to the doc and ask for him to cure your addiction he'll comment he'll give you some pre-war stuff to flush your system.

not even fem couriers can sleep with her dude, she seems to have not forgotten christine and i daresay that old man elijah was based in his insanity.
funny thing is that even on OWB the think tank laughs at elijah while they fear ulysses, one they saw as a mere spoiled child, the other they saw as a literal threat.

Oh I know.

Kinda funny how the West Coast games never really dabbled in romance in regards to the player character, which I think is fine by me.

Speaking of, I recently discovered the Willow mod and my God that shit is just downright cringe. "Oh, she eats dog treats and carries around stuffed animals! Isn't she so quirky and endearing?"

I don't remember if it was the same mod or another one, but I remember one for a female companion that was quirk to the point she loved collecting pencils.
 
Lol I got my Nexus banned because of the tranny.
Anyways, companion mods are usually meh-ish, i've looked into the WMX TTW patch to make sure it finally works because TTW gun mods are cringy as fuck.
i was looking for mods that allowed me to enslave niggers because of the paradise falls thingy but all links pointed to loverslab, and if it's on loverslab, it's not a good thing. still, i'll have to take a look and see if things can be disabled.

Not to mention the utter insanity that is Father Elijah.

This meme makes no sense though.
Fallout is not about the deconstruction of American exceptionalism or is it about painting AE in a negative light.
The entire in-game pre-war world in Fallout is littered with avarice, vice, and social decay. This isn't limited to the U.S. China is just as responsible as the U.S. is for the state of the world in Fallout, yet whoever made that macro conveniently ignores that aspect. Nope; clearly AE is to blame for China's actions in the resource wars.
The AE is in the game because it's set in an alternate timeline where the 50s never died. It's seasoning, not the actual beef.
The guy who sees Fallout as "Wow! Cool Robot!" understands Fallout more than some soy fedora taking baseless potshots because they have a grudge with America.

I think you've got it backwards.
Dr. 0: "*I don't like to talk about it. 8... he can't talk about it, they fried his voice module something good.* *It wasn't all the visitors, though - only one of them got out of control. He's the one that took control of Little Yangtze, our old human farm.*"
The Courier: "Tell me what happened."
0: "*This human... I can't believe it... he broke out of the Think Tank. In seconds.* *Then he went for Yangtze, got bomb collars, and started practicing on the subjects that were still there until he got the right frequency.* *We were sending robots to stop him and he was slicing and cutting through their shells with some suped-up laser gun like they were cheese... paper.* *When he hacked into the mainframe, 8 tried to stop him and got fried. Me? He rerouted my processors to take control of the train network here.* *If you see the tunnels with the trains plowed into them, you can thank our visitor for that. He wrecked the whole place.* *While we were trying to keep containment on the surface, turns out he used one train to punch out a tunnel and escape... sealed now, but...*"
Elijah royally fucked their shit up but good.

That's the scary thing, Elijah came there completely fucking prepared for what he was about to encounter. And he fucked some shit up for an old man. He was like an elderly technophile Batman with a Gauss rifle.
Honestly it always kinda sucked that you couldn't talk him down in Dead Money. It would have to be hard, like Lanius at the Dam levels of hard, but they really should have given you the option to reason the old fucker into fucking off or maybe even agreeing to work for you. He could stay i the old BoS bunker and cook up some shit for you. Come and visit from time to time, he might have chems, he might have weapons, or armor, or ammo, or something worth your while.
Yeah, I know you can't talk EVERYONE down, but if you could talk down someone as crazy and violent as Lanius you should have no problem talking down someone as crazy as Elijah.

And I will again bitch about the fact that you couldn't reunite Christine with Veronica. That was some fucking bullshit.

Was he prepared? I got the impression he absolutely wasn't, given that he had to jury-rig up a Tesla Cannon out of scrap while he was there. He also apparently wandered there by accident somehow. It was Ulysses that came deliberately looking for the place.
