    it's amazing how often characters say things in these games that turns murdering them into the perfect punchline

      It happens so much in Bethesda games that I sincerely believe it's an intentional part of their game design.
      It's all about giving you an environment to play out the fantasy of having no consequences for your actions. It's like the concept of having "fuck you money" (being so rich that you can say fuck you to anybody), but with power.

      I've always thought that it's sometimes too easy with these games. Like, the option that requires a skill check is always the better option, you don't even need to read beyond seeing the skill check marker to know it's the best option for you.
      I'd love it if, just once or twice, Bethsoft gave us a skill check that was objectively worse than otherwise, just to trip us up - like a high-int option where the character wildly overthinks the problem and leads the NPC and themselves to the wrong conclusion.

    • @Tyrranis

      One theory that I subscribe to for this is that it takes that high of an intelligence for the player to realise that the think tank isn't as smart as they appear, and as such the painfully obvious solution is one that they haven't thought of.
      The INT isn't for you to come up with the idea, it's to realise that they didn't.

      but the sheer amount of content, characters, weapons/armor, side-stories, and environments in OWB were just fantastic in comparison! they also give you an awesome player-home you can literally teleport to from anywhere when you complete the main DLC story. thats why i rank OWB as my favorite of the New Vegas DLC's!

      To be fair. As a biotechnologist... You have no idea how eerily realistic this is. I mean there's a reason the slash is there to begin with, ok. You have no idea how obsessive half the people I work with are about their lingo, including me.
      And since biotech, as an intersectional field, includes talking with people from various specialties. In my case a combo of mostly physics, proteomics and bioinformatics. With some biochem in there. Point is. I'm pretty sure a whole ass half of the issues I find come from people refusing to stop being assholes and just do shit the way its supposed to be done. WHICH IS MY WAY, OBVIOUSLY, BECAUSE I'M RIGHT!
      And don't get me started on how everyone who isn't on the bioinformatics field just keeps treating computers like they can be reasoned with and refuses to just use each program's commands like you should.
