What do you think of Veronica as a companion in new vegas

Melee companions are objectively trash. On Hardcore they are pointless. Veronica is the trashest since you need to invest in armor for her to be less useless. As for her character she's just an annoying libtard woman but in the fallout universe.

A token faggot like Arcade. Also just not good to run around with.

a dyke that specializes in melee combat and doesn't wear any armor
i'm surprised she hasn't been killed, much less cook-cooked

Both of them lead to power armour and both are homosexual. What did obsidian mean by this?

power armor is for fags, definitely

Might be old news but the guy who made all of those Millenia weapon mods for New Vegas trooned out lmao

Disappointing, very disappointing, but predictable I guess.
I was a fan of his work since the days of Counter-Strike: Source; modelling, texturing, animating- the guy could do it all and he had full-length tutorials for getting people into modelling in 3DSMax, complete with UV mapping and exporting tools for various popular games at the time (Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas/FarCry/Counter-Strike/etc).

Given his trade and his skill, him ending up a tranny was inevitable. A shame nevertheless.
I wonder how Darkelfa's doing...

>putting Lilly this low
RESPECT YOUR ELDERS BOY
But seriously she is pretty good despite being the least developed out of all the companions. Wish she had more to her, and her story is pretty sad.

Only for Stealth-based characters.

That's true. She having dementia and schizophrenia being a good grandma before Master's army...

 

[Mister Uno]

Only for Stealth-based characters.

Oh if we're talking in terms of usefulness then yeah. She's ok on her own even without a stealth character, but better options for sure.

What is the best order to play the NV DLCs in? I'm currently at level 11, I ended up killing Mr. House because i didn't want to do his quest yet but refusing causes him to attack, so he dead now, I'm gonna ignore the main quest for a bit

Lonesome Road, Old World Blues, Dead Money then Honest Hearts. Don't worry about the level requirement it's only for show.

Lonesome Road, Old World Blues, Dead Money then Honest Hearts. Don't worry about the level requirement it's only for show.

I would recommend Old World Blues, THEN Lonesome Road, mainly for the story-telling reasons, unless you want a particular piece of gear from the DLC for your playthrough.
OWB have backstory on the events tied to the Divide, as well as tidbits on Ulysses's background.

 

[Replacement Account]

I usually do Dead Money first because the ghost people have a habit of becoming quite tanky as you level. It's not the end of the world though; more levels means it's easier to defeat evil santa in different ways.

The free 1300 chips every few days is great too for general gameplay

 

[TheHarbinger]

Lonesome Road should be done as the last thing you do before finishing the final Battle of the Hoover Dam.

 

[Sargon's wife's son]

Charisma's completely pointless in fallout new Vegas seriously just get 9 intelligence get comprehension go find all the skill books unite the enclave remnants convince them to fight for the legion
make fun of the wispy homosexual companion who bitch off because destroying the Ncr which massacred his family members is not cool because he's a tree hugging liberal
do all of the side quests for the NCr to get their weapons then hide in the bushes above camp forlorn hope
then walk back to Hoover Dam and buy more ammunition to kill the rest of the NCr


also does anybody know any good mods that make the settlements better I really wanna start a new game in fallout 4 I need some good mods to make the settlements less lame and add quests a mod that would also make it so I could send Preston Garvey out to do my bidding would be good

I didn't even did a melee run for this one, and still that digital axe is one of the best weapons to use here. I hate the lobotomites having a perfect aiming, they're most annoying than scary.

Also, exploring the Father Elijah camps before Dead Money gives me a lot of hype for playing it, also with the tapes containing the first voices of Ulysses.

Thermal Lance all the critical hit buffs luck 10 endurance 10 you are basically indestructible
unless you're being shot at then that really sucks

also mini nuke builds are amazing same with missile launchers you will explode your face constantly though I did that in fallout 4 when I accidentally pulled out big boy with the splitter mini nuke mod when doing Claire's quest

also the fusion core perk that lets you blow them up like mini nukes is extremely annoying cause I accidentally constantly do it and blow myself up

There's the sim settlements (1 and 2) that make settlements alive and let them grow with or without you input, I imagine it works with mods that add in new settlements too.
I'm gonna start on a mod list right now so I can make a full Enclave-Minuteman controlled Commonwealth.

I finally finished Old World Blues in its entirety. The last part of the ending is unironically one of the most beautiful written texts I've seen in a videogame.

"There is an expression in the Wasteland: "Old World Blues."
It refers to those so obsessed with the past they can't see the present, much less the future, for what it is. They stare into the what-was, eyes like pilot lights, guttering and spent, as the realities of their world continue on around them.Science is a long, steady progression into the future. What may seem a sudden event often isn't felt for years, even centuries, to come.
In the times following the Second Battle of Hoover Dam, however, Old World Blues took on a new meaning.
Where once it was viewed as a form of sadness, nostalgia, it became an expression describing the potential for the future.
It can be easy to see Science as evil, technology unchecked as the source of all ills, all misfortunes.
With the Courier at the helm, Science became a beacon for the future. There was Old World Blues, and New World Hope. And hope ruled the day at Big MT."

Man...

A lot of OWB is pretty goofy, but a lot of its ending slides have the Sink personalities going on to do good things for the wasteland, or at least helping undo some of the worse excesses of the Think Tank like the toxins

When a bunch of mentats addicted maniacs like the Think Tank and a bunch of like, toasters (except the actual toaster) are a more positive influence* on the world than say, the Institute you know someone messed up somewhere.

*discounting Cazadores, the worst thing ever.

(except the actual toaster)

I love him. He's an evil villain with no pretensions of anything but evil for evil's sake. I also love that even in his dying moments he gets the last laugh, cursing the other personalities to be forever toast-less without him around.

Lonesome Road is, despite the earlier THE BEAR AND THE BULL talk from Ulysses, also similarly rewarding at the end.

He's an agent of chaos and destruction, he's more evil and twisted than the Fiends.
