      The Brahmin skull tutorial isn’t cut it is timed incorrectly. Usually doc Mitchell tells you to sit down and most players instantly do that. It only triggers the tutorial message if you stand around for quite a long time and put your cursor over it. I’ve had it do it on Xbox 360.

    Another cool fact I just found out 10 seconds ago while playing Honest Hearts.
    Joshua Graham mentions that the handguns he’s maintaining were created by someone from his tribe over 400 years ago. They’re based off the real-life Colt 1911 (my favorite handgun) and their inventor, the greatest gun maker of all time John Browning was in fact a Mormon. I just looked it up and can’t believe what a cool detail that is.

    5:50 the reason that I dont think that the Nuka-Cola cans have been intractable so far is becuz they would probably be made of aluminum and that means that they would be very easily malleable and therefore break very easily. In contrast glass bottles are fragile, but can definitely last longer than an aluminum can. But hey, thats just my theory on it

    • @prophetofpuppets

      The glass on the nuka cola bottles are pretty thick. They look about half an inch thick based on the rim of the bottle's opening. Based on a google search, a normal bottle is barely 5 millimeters thick with the most being 25 millimeters. Which means Nuka Cola bottles might be really hardy.

      I also don't think they're aluminum. Aluminum is light-weight and better for recycling, which is why we use it today. But, aluminum cans weren't used until the mid-1960's, and given the time period vibe of the Falloutverse, I doubt they ever made the switch. They didn't seem like a civilization that really cared about recycling or the environment, so they were probably still using some form of tin-iron or tin-plated-steel cans, which means they would've been much harder. We also know that Kick the Can is a game still played in the Falloutverse, which means it prolly was pre-war too, and that can't be done with the easily malleable cans that are generally produced these days.

    Something I found out about Fallout NV is that with some percise timing, after getting into your first fight after leaving goodsprings, you can talk to victor, showing that the way he finds you is because he is temporarily made into a companion. I did this on accident in my first playthrough by talking to victor just before he forces you into a conversation, momentarily pulling up the companion wheel. Just to clarify I did this on console.

At least that was my experience. You have already proven that you can survive emotional hell, so that's not the issue. You need to find joy to balance the pain. Perhaps you still haven't found that or perhaps you need to allow yourself to enjoy things.

    My favourite thing about Cow Tipping the Brahmin in New Vegas is that it counts as knocking over an opponent. Whenever I get to Mojave Outpost on a new save I go into the cage with the 2 Brahmin in, shut myself in and go back and forth between them, pushing each one over as it gets back up. Push them over 100 times and it completes the Knocked Up challenge, giving you some XP. This challenge can be done repeatedly, and is a fairly easy way to level up, though you might have some trouble with higher level enemies being stronger than your early game gear if you're taking the long way round to New Vegas itself.

    I have 2 fun fallout facts for you. If you kill Orris in FNV before doing the G.I Blues quest you receive from the King, the dialogue will be slightly different. The King would tell you to hire Orris, but the player has the option to say I think I've already killed him. Another Fallout fact is from Fallout 2. If you have a companion with a talking head, and talk to them in certain times of day, or environment, then the background of the talking head will be different. If you talk at night, it's going to be night in the background, at day, it's going to be day, in a cave, it's going to be a cave, etc.

We both talk too much, we're both generally good-natured, we both despise bad authority and seek to expose it, and we both express ourselves a bit too much sometimes.

    my third playthrough of Fallout 2, I went with an INT 1 character, so I could max my AP and HP. I found that you don't use words. you make sounds like "krhung. Glarr. glorb. hrrrhrrrrrgg." makes it fun interacting with the Brotherhood.

      Did you talk to Torr in Klamath? That's a highlight of a low INT playthrough.

      Low int is a pain in the ass gameplay wise, you get less quests cuz of less dialogue, so less xp, so less lvls, and once u get lvls with low int u get less skippoints to use
