      Tucson. During Raul's dialogue, you can talk to him about his history and will mention the city. He'll mention that the everyone including the locals call it Two-Sun but since Raul was born before the war, he knows it's actually "Tucson". He's very adamant that should be Tucson and even says this- "but it's Tucson, dammit"

      In reference to the alternatives to benny for fnv, i have an evil karma character who did both with swank simultaneously, first i did two of the speech checks, then dropped every shred of evidence into his hands. Had to make sure swank knew just how dead that one wished benny to be(also roleplayed it as making an example) Then when he sent him upstairs, I stealthed behind him and dropped him point blank with the survivalist rifle for a whopping "holy crap" ammount of cranial damage.

    You know how in Fallout 4, you can bump into Protectrons with different "jobs"? Some of those variants will have special dialogue depending on what stuff you have equipped. The Utility Protectron will thank you for complying with safety protocols if you wear a hard hat, and if you have Molotovs equipped the Firefighter Protectron will tell you you're holding a fire hazard and ask you to get rid of them. It's actually pretty cute :)

      My favorite item to use in Fallout 4 is the protectron override magazine perk. Basically turns any protectron or robot that is activated by a terminal into a follower. This works best when there are multiple robots hooked up to a terminal because they all become your ally. You just pop in the holotape and select the “escort VIP” mode. The best part about these followers is that they will fast travel with you and enter any location until they die. You can also pick their personality.

      @@justsomenumpty There is evidence in the games files that Nora was also supposed to be a veteran, but then they locked out the option. There are mods that remove the lock and Nora can say the same things as Nate in regards to veteran dialogue. I like to think she was a soldier, maybe an officer or Military Police with her law degree, then left after she became pregnant. It's not really specified when Nate left the army, but I imagine it was definitely before Shaun was born, given that the photograph he's looking at in the intro is just of Nora, and not of Nora and Shaun. I theorise it may have been the same time period as when Nora got pregnant, but this is just in my head as there isn't really anything to say whether I'm right or not. I mean, I have my own head canon that I consider to be one of many theoretical universes. That's why I consider every playthrough to be canon in some universe. My head canon is that Nate was a US Army General who's daughter moved in with him after the father of her baby ran out on her, so General Nathaniel "Nate" Clarke spends the game looking for his grandson, and rebuilding the Minutemen National Guard, rather than some weird colonial bullshit that we got.

    When firing the test cannons in Old World Blues the impact zone is actually then damaged revealing a unique set of armour. Its the Ghost Armour from Dead Money and its the only way to get a hold of the armour without spawning it in.
    One of the perks of this armour is that it gives you 'Ghost Sight' which is not unlike the sneak sight that you get from the Ranger armour in Lonesome Road, with the key difference being that Ghost Sight is tinted green, like the colouring of the Ghost People's eyes

After that you can go to Chet where you can blackmail him that the Powder Gangers will threaten the town if he didn't give some supplies. He will then give you 9mm bullets and some Leather armor and a +33 xp. That's where the glitch happens you can repeat the whole dialogue and gain xp. You can then sell the leather armor Chett gave you for bonus 2k caps to start the game. And yes, the glitch is forever stuck and you can do any time.

    There should be a secret way to start fallout 4, if you don't head to the vault you become a ghoul but you fall into a comma waking up 200 years late as a ghoul

    Added Fun Fact @ 9:24 if you get the Fusion Coil from the molerat den under Red Rocket you can get the powerarmor by rather than going through the front door, climb to the roof of the church, and jump onto the tail of the crashed Vertibird to immediately get the powerarmor and minigun, then go inside through the roof access door. You still get the same dialogue, plus it was much easier to clear out the area from above than from below. the doors to preston will automatically open if you manage to kill all raiders from above. otherwise you can jump down and hunt them all down.
