- There are a lot of weird ways to play Fallout New Vegas. You could restrict yourself to the worst weapon in entire game, put no points into the relevant SPECIAL Stats or Skills, and play through New Vegas on the hardest difficulty without healing. Or… you could do something even more ridiculous. Can You Beat Fallout New Vegas As A Necromancer?

Can You Beat Fallout New Vegas As A Necromancer? (in text form)
No. Of course you can’t. Don’t be stupid, that’s a dumb idea. I feel comfortable saying that because of how incredible the original idea was. See, what I was gonna do was use a mod to let me have both an infinite number of companions and the ability to make anyone a companion. The mod entitled JIP Companions Command & Control seemed to fit the bill with it’s option for so-called “Unlimited Companions” but it actually caps out at 16, which is countless orders of magnitude lower than what I needed. The plan was to make Easy Pete my companion, then every time he died, I’d spawn in 2 more to take his place. When they died, 4 would replace them, then 8, then 16, then 32, until hopefully I had more than 1,000 Easy Petes in the greatest army ever conceived. Unfortunately it was not meant to be.
But I liked the idea so much that I dug its lifeless corpse out of the dumpster I left it in and mangled it around inside my head box until something usable grew out of it. Then I got it. I play as a Necromancer, one of those dark magic guys that can bring people back from the dead. It’d be like the Companion Only video, except I my only companions will be corpses. Where the Necromancer part comes in is that I use the Resurrect command on any dead creature, make it my companion, and when it dies, it’s gone for good. This probably isn’t the best concept for a “Can You Beat” video, but it’s what I came up with on short notice. The Dead Space playthrough I finished earlier this week turned out to be far more mentally exhausting to write a script for than I anticipated, most likely due to how linear the game is.
Anyway, my SPECIAL Stats were aimed at increasing the Nerve of my companions which is based on your Charisma, being able to take damage, and get skill points. Despite the points put into Charisma, I was not going to rely on Speech to complete the game. My soulless puppets would have to carry me to the finish line. My first stop outside of Doc Mitchell’s house after selling my trash and noticing that a Bighorner can be a possible companion was the road leading to Sloan. There’s a couple dead guys out by an RV that God left there just for me. Thanks Todd, you’re the best.
It’s Christmas in July in the Mitten Squad household. Believe it or not, there were actually 3 lies in that sentence. A Powder Ganger killed his brother, I brought a Caravan Guard back from the dead, played around with the menu system, it’s kind of intimidating at first but once you learn how to use it it ain’t so bad. Also, I set the difficulty to Very Hard to make up for the fact that I could have up to 16 companions at once. Shoot the barrels, interrupt an argument, negotiate with the people who don’t know they’re secretly my hostages, and let the battle for Goodsprings begin. I’d left my Power Ganger at Jean Sky Diving because, at this point in the playthrough, I wasn’t sure if the factions a companion is a part of would have any impact on how I interact with other factions. Like if I had a Legion companion, would an NCR Trooper attack me on sight? No, that’s another stupid question. They don’t without the mod, why would they with it? - เกม
I know you cant see this. We miss you man.
We do. Very very much
Just learning he passed away. R.I.P. boss
I havent ever heard paul speak with more emotion untill now when he said "and the litle radroach flaps its wings"
and when he almost breaks into tears when it dies. Spoilers. Nearly cried myself
@@Sightss_ F for radroach

The one time Paul showed emotion

I wonder if you could recruit multiple Glowing Ones, equip a hazmat suit/ radiation suit and go into a crowded area and just wait until all the people die of radiation poisoning
Neat Idea
Npcs can die from radiation in this game?
@@rawrdino7046 pretty sure they can't though I can test it by making Veronica stand in a crater
@@ralcogaming7674 did it work?
@@happy-senpai2928 yeah they don't take rad damage. But followers have different rules than other npcs. Though I doubt it does anything in older fallout games
I love how you don’t play like a pro speed runner or someone trying to complete the game with maximum efficiency and instead you play like everyone else plays the game: just fucking around with anything and everything you can find.
im invincible, i fuck around FAST
"And so the Courier, who had cheated death in the cementery outside Goodsprings, cheated death once again, and again, and again, and again..."
"... And the respawn timer was changed forever.
... Nobody was happy about it."
I immediately thought of The Highwayman by The Highwaymen. “And I’ll be back again, and again, and again, and again...”
"and again,and again, and again..."
Can some one plz count how many and again are in the comment section
until finally we neared ANNIHILATION. - Duncan
I have never heard mitten squad so sad when the rad roach died
It was a Mitten Squads best friend
Watch his goose game no honk video and watch the bit where you're forced to honk at the start. That is truly sad.
The roach saved his life in 'Nam
Untitled Goose Game
Yeah this is coming from the man who constantly complains you can’t kill children in fallout 3 or New Vegas
Mitten:"why, won't, you, DIE!?"

Where Men cried: 8:10
Are you saying my death was meaningless? Those "heroes" lives were better than mine?
@@thanosattorneyatlaw4062 -- A child might say that. Men know that each radroach is precious.
@@TlalocTemporal I got rid of half the radroaches to save them, they were on the brink of starvation and global destruction!
@@TlalocTemporal wise words
Thanos Attorney At Law perhaps they would have been happy soaking up radiation till the inevitable starvation of their species came because no prey were left for them to eat
Hearing him talk about the radroach was the most human he's ever been on this channel, and its honestly really endearing
the first time hes shown emotion, hes growing up so fast ;w;
Right??
So when was this?
If he likes roachs he would like steve
I thought of the one part in lord the ring when gandalf broke the bridge and fell and frodo scream "gandalf" or no. something like that
Man : 'It is really difficult to raise a family.'
Necromancer: 'Not if they are buried close together.'
Man: 'What ? ... '
Necromancer: 'What ? ... '
Awesome! That was brilliant, thanks! I'm sharing that with my friends

Statement of the century.
My favorite video that he had made. When I first watched I was crying laughing at how funny this video came out. Thank you for all the laughs, Paul.
Edit: I made the comment (seen below this edit) right when the video was released, fully expecting to see many comments about how this wasn't a "real challenge" because of mods and console commands. The reception to this video has been the opposite, for which I am grateful. I might do more "creative" challenges like this one going forward, I'm entirely sure anymore.
______
Before anyone freaks out, this sort of challenge based around a mod isn’t something I’m planning on doing a lot more of in the future, unless it’s like the New California mod that acts as its own game/story. Or maybe mod challenges on Mitten Prime, but not on this channel. I only did this one, as I mentioned early in the video, because it was inspired by another idea that could be described as a “meme” playthrough. The 2nd reason is that I initially planned on this week’s video being of Dead Space, but I didn’t feel like the script for it was coming along the way I wanted it to, so I put it to the side for something I new I could turn into a video based on the absurd concept behind it.
Awwww this sounds like a good idea though.
Please do release a Dead Space video where you can kill necromorphs by only punching/stomping or by only using telekinesis
bro its 8 am what are you doing
That’s fine, nonetheless this is super cool! Do whatever’s easiest for you, don’t let us boss you around!
Can you beat fallout 4 with only a meat hook?

The real birds were the friends you made along the way.

@@cysilversoul Edgar Allan Poe disagrees but you are close
Your Easy Pete idea probably would have worked. The game would have recognized every single Easy Pete as the same companion.
Because it’s not like he already tried the idea and found out that it wouldn’t work
One Easy Pete is too powerful.
Easy Pete=Fork from Skyrim
@@skinnytoaster7524 Stfu
@@skinnytoaster7524 What op meant is that he didn't need the mod for the challenge, and that without it, the game would have recognized them all as the same
because that's EXACTLY how companions work
"Salt, gathered from the tears of a thousand angels, restraining the essence of Easy Pete, the Hellhound. The Seed of Destruction. This I can promise, Easy Pete, for every one of you that falls, two shall arise."
And thus Easy Pete transformed into Hardcore Pete!
I love that reference...a few people might get it lol
Wonderful Hellboy reference. I love it
Woah good reference
This is probably the most entertaining challenge by far. You looked like you actually had fun with it, and that's something I like.
Other than when rad roach died
The rad roach died to soon.
i like when super mutant hit man with hammer and man die :)
Yes. Just...yes

Just want to point out that this was his first video when Lord Mitten from the house of Mitten expressed any feeling beside annoyance and frustration. He is a human after all.
Holy shit, you're right.
Impossible. No human can possess such power - it would shatter your mind!
He still isnt human, just finally learnt about human emotions

Rest easy Paul. Thank you for the memories and for youself. You will be missed💔
He actually sounded sad about the radroach
F for the Radroach
"he was too slow" my fucking sides
I've seen that same rad roach get immediately killed by a gecko hunter about a hundred times by now.
And happy when it flutters its wings
"No, I did not beat Fallout New Vegas as a necromancer, I instead left 16 of my best beating Oliver senseless while I watched for his crimes against my previous play-throughs."
Still a fail though. Plus General Oliver is apparently unkillable at that part of the game.
A lot of people think Mitten Squad suffering makes these challenge videos better but he seemed like he was genuinely enjoying this one and it's honestly more fun to watch then a lot of the other ones
"when a rare opportunity lifted its dress and presented itself to me" god I love your metaphors/analogies
They are literally the "Mitten Squad" lol
True
Mitten spec ops
The sheer joy in Mitten Squad's voice, combined with his heartbreak when the radroach died, makes the best video on this channel ever.
It was so fucking genuine too
Radroaches are rad.
Bugs are cool.
His buddy died.
Now I'm a crying fool.
Nox Eternis It really sounded like he cared about it.
F for the little guy

"by the rules of peek-a-boo" is one of the best lines I've heard him say
My favorite video of yours to date. I'll make sure to have it in a Playlist for you Paul, rest easy now.
This was the "can you beat this" I didn't even think was possible and loved it immediately great stuff
There's even a kinda lore-friendly way to do this with this mod
www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/43331
KONO DIO DA!
Well it's not possible lol
Do a "Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas with radroaches only" video
POST IT ON THE DISCORD. MAKE IT HAPPEN IN MEMORY OF HIS POOR RADROACH!
Yes. Seek Revenge for their fallen brethren.
That would give him severe depression
entomancer playthrough
I like where you're head's at. But what if it was Fallout 3, but instead of killing the Radroach in Vault 101, I recruit it to my army of rad roaches and try to keep it alive until the end of the game

my brain: *The Wrestlemania of Terrorist attacks*
"I only kept him around to torment him anyway. His constant fear provided me with moral support"
@John Doe no
@John Doe "You are videos are pure genius"?
15:07 not gonna lie having Benny kill Mr. House was a really cool moment lorewise
Can you explain why to me?
Because the whole point of Benny's plan was to try and remove Mr. House from his "throne" and rule New Vegas himself. In a way Paul granted Benny his wish even in death. Feels pretty cool to me.
“It’s Christmas in July in the mitten squad household. Believe or not, there were three lies in that sentence”
1. It’s not Christmas in July
2. It’s not even July
3. There is no mitten squad household?
mitten squad doesn't live in a house, a traditional one anyways. they live in a skoolie, which is a converted school bus into a mobile home like a totally custom rv, and with it, travels all over the country. doesn't even live in michigan. he hates the cold and actually stays in more southern states.
A snowball in July?
@@DrSnegg
In New Zealand. Its winter here.
Snow sucks hahaha. But at least we can swim on Christmas
@@Subreon Thanks for the info
he said he loved todd too
Dang, I really wanted to see if he was going to Necromance Mr.House back as a companion
I love that they all followed in an orderly line everywhere you go. So polite.
“If your enemies can’t see you, by the rules of peekaboo, they can’t see your companions either.”
Yeah, I watched the video too
@@zacoman2225 So did most people, that's why they're in the comments.
5:48 this is the fist time you haven’t been either mad, or monotone sounding. I am glad you achieved bliss at that moment.
And 8:14
9:42 literally the best part of the video
I always like thinking of Paul as this crazy reality bending dude who travels between universes when doing these challenges, setting himself these bizarre rules just because he can. Like him reloading a save is him just reversing time, or when he starts another challenge he’s just going to a different parallel universe to do it. What power he holds…
ok
8:14 the legit pain in his voice talking about this actually hurt me a little
I know it killed me inside
Why he was just a little roach he put the force of god on our little baby roach
The voice crack at "he was too slow" made me feel a sharp pain in my heart
5:45 “but the little radroach just flutters his wings”
This was easily my favorite video he had made rest in peace paul
This is such a good video. So many funny parts throughout. My personal favorite is when it cuts to Benny limping at the dam. Extremely sad to know that Paul is no longer with us. These videos are his legacy. I for one know that I'll be watching all of them over and over. Rest in peace Paul.
“The Wrestlemania of terrorist attacks...”
Now that’s a line Il have to use in real life conversation.
slow claps slow claps
The way he let his cursor rest on his radroaches death.
This was the one time in awhile paul actually had fun, i can kind a hear it in his voice.
Rip Mittensquad fly high man
Paul has shown more care and affection to a radroach than any human ever
Have you never heard of Alchestbreach?
@@itsyaboi6535 who dat be?
Random Bystander- "It's too late, he's already gone!"

"Who needs a medical license when you got style?" - also Health Jesus Dr. Zed, Budderlunds Dos
When ze patient woke up with a missing skeleton. The doctor was never heard from again!
Anyway, that's how I lost my medical license.
Moral of this story: no matter what you do, Fallout is going bug out at some point.
the engine that powers the game is old enough to drink in the US so itll do that
@@quinnmarchese6313 except the engine was already heavly drinking since the age of 12 or something, because it falls apart every single time you merely touch it
@@commanderknee3821 its really funny to see a somewhat modern game use Gamebryo and be like good and competent. The Rocksmith games come to mind
"We're skipping the nuclear winter movie and going straight into civil war."
Wait I thought Mitten was talking about his Fallout: New Vegas run, not real life.
this seems like the only playthrough in recent times that Paul actually enjoyed
I think he enjoys them all tbh, it's just funnier when he sounds like he hates it
I think he really enjoyed that fallout:brotherhood of steel one...
You should do more of these “creative play throughs”. They are great!
Agreed... I really enjoyed this.
Damn, I do love that mod. Used it while playing dust to collect nonhostile survivors, to pretend I could take them with me while escaping. Good times.
This play through feels like forced conscription you kill them then bring them back to and force them to follow and kill for you and I absolutely love it
Honestly wouldn’t mind seeing a “can you beat” with Outer Worlds
Same , hopefully something like can you beat outer worlds with only fists or something on supernova
The Outer Worlds without taking damage would be interesting

"The Tops was the Wrestlemania of terrorist attacks committed by a wizard with an army of undead creatures against casino owners" has got to be one of the best lines I have ever heard
Here is an idea for you:
"Can you beat Skyrim in a power armor."
Can you beat fallout with dragon bone armor
Can you beat fallout with only lydia
Would Skyrim Power Armor be Daedric or Dragonbone grade, and what enchantments would it have?
I'm thinking Fortify Health+Health Regeneration, Fortify Stamina+Stamina Regeneration, Fortify Unarmed+One Handed+Two Handed+Archery+Heavy Armor+Block+Destruction+Alteration
@Patheron Aetherson it would be some kind of Dwemer machination of course, dragon bone and daedric are too primitive or magical
Dude, come back and watch Nerbit's video.
He actually achieved happiness in this one, what a time to be alive

I love how everyone looks like they chugged a gallon of Pepto Bismol
This video is way too entertaining. Hands down your best video
tihy9s uhhh what?
Rip u where so nice to watch over the years
I did a similar play through in Skyrim. I used a mod that let me have unlimited followers and another that let me Raise Dead on every corpse in a certain perimeter. At one point I had over 70 minions.
Pros - leading n army across Skyrim was awesome. Wiping out Holds was easy.
Cons - Indoors activities were zero fun and it took a while for the zombie train to catch up. I had to run back and forth along the line to cluster them.
9/10 fun time though.
This is the first video I'ver ever saw Mitten speak with a not so flat tone, and being so sad at some points xD
"When a rare opportunity lifted its dress and presented itself to me" seems to have gone criminally unappreciated in this comment section.
“When God closes a door, he opens a dress.”
9:11 I love that line.
And it will stay unappreciated
Honestly, these videos make me laugh more than anything has recently. I love them. Thanks for the hard work Paul.
Also, Benny beating the shit out of Mr. House kills me every time.
Whenever I feel real upset I like to watch this video. It more then cheers me up and my mouth sometimes hurts to smile afterwards.
Man, I was hoping he was going to make the Mother Deathclaw his companion, that would have been great
Daddy and mama deathclaw would've raped his team too hard
Useless indoors tho lol
“Missile launcher taped to a dog”
Laughed harder than I’d like to admit.
5:17 hits different now
RIP
I was looking for anyone mentioning this. Thank you for showing I'm not alone.
Rip
Your channel is such quality content and this video is like the epitome of your Mitten Squad persona. 10/10. best video yet.
5:45 omg you can hear the affection in his voice. It's like it's not paul.
“Can you beat fallout new Vegas while suffering from all addictions and having your head constantly crippled”?
I’m living like that for years my dude
This was a really interesting premise, and I would actually really like to see a full play through based around it.
Fun fact
The surgical tools u need u can just steal-there’s a box on a table in one of the other rooms with them
Imagine getting all the legendary creatures and that giant robo-scorpion from Old World Blues in your squad.
At that point you are beating Fallout:New Vegas as Dr.Mobius
Especially when those fuckers are bullet spongey
So this is the true Mitten Squad: Paul and a rag tag group of whatever he could find willing or not
One of the more entertaining videos done. Really liked the switch up and just watching you goof it off.
I honestly dont know how do I keep coming back to your videos but somehow I find them entertaining as f*ck. Also I really like your narration style, it really has some feeling in it!
This sounds like a Nuzlocke challenge but with extra steps
i mean it sorta is - had to also add 'pokemon' ish shit to fallout nv too
*companion starts to bleed out*
Companion: “help me... I need a stimpack!”
Me: *Loads guns* “Well... I didn’t get my doctor’s license revoked for nothing!”
5:47 So wholesome, a human moment from MittenSquad
Jokes aside, this looks like an extremely fun playthrough and I want to do it myself now
Reminds me of my mad scientist playthrough where I used the RobCo Certified mod that allows you to 'repair' dead robots and assemble new, unique ones to create a robot army. It even allowed you to create lobotomites out of dead people if you had all the required parts
Sounds a little like Fallout 4 Automatron
i felt so sad when he just said 'have a day' :(
He hasn't gotten over the Radroach's death yet.
I’ve only been watching your “can you beat” videos for a couple days. You earned a sub my enlarged huevos brother. Can not fathom how long some of them took you
This was a very fun challenge, I wish you did a full playthrough with this
Please do more “dumb” ideas like this because those are your best videos in all honesty. And your commentary is always on point and hilarious.
Completely agree!
I consider it brilliant and not dumb
الجنرال المجهول He said that it was a stupid idea in the video but his stupid ideas are the best ones.
And I said I “consider” it brilliant even though he admits it’s dumb
radroach:*flaps its wings*
Mitten: this is what i signed up for
I love sitting down on my break from work and watching your videos, keep it up please, I love them!
Thank you. I randomly came across your uploads whilst looking for tips and tricks for Fallout 3 & New Vegas. Thoroughly enjoyed watching what you did (and subsequently went on a binge watch on your channel). I loved this idea and seeing all the dead wasteland critters get recruited, I hope one day just for fun you will do a run through with an entire undead zoo! Would the resurrect command work on say legendary creatures? Imagine strolling round the Mojave with the Legendary Deathclaw at your back. Have now subscribed as can’t wait to see what you do next. Cheers.
5:43 man, i never heard paul be actually amused by something.
I always thought there was a custom robot voice that talked
I like how what is probably the most emotion we've ever seen from Paul was expressed over a redroach
Thank you for existing, MS. Fellow Michigander here and instant fan. I’ve been watching your videos non stop the last couple days. They’re hilarious. Your deadpan delivery gives me life.
9:13 "When a rare opportunity lifted its dress and presented itself to me."
This is the pinnacle of narration.
