WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I was playing a female character, but right when burke asked me to destroy megaton , I blasted his head off. So his headless body was just sitting there in megaton saloon as if nothing happened And no one seemed to mind the dismangled corpse in the street? "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
Bokishi Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 It wasn't on the street, it was just sitting where he was when he was alive, but no head. And no one cares if you kill burke Current 3DMark
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Burka Burka Burka, Mohammed Jihad ... nothing? Yeah, didn't think it'd be that funny. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager.

Aram Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I think I'm going to replay through the game evil next. I imagine it will be satisfying after everything I endured last game without a bit of thanks.
Magister Lajciak Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 That's awesome. I shot your boyfriend in the back and took his suit. Now run before she gets you back!
Hell Kitty Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I got four letters from Burke, but the final one said something about freeing me or some such rubbish. In Girdershade(?) I met a crazy woman who just LOVES Nuka Cola. After taking the tour of her museum, she asked me to collect Nuka Cola Quantum for her, because she loves that even more. When I went outside I met her neighbour and protector, who asked me to give the Quantum to him instead so then he could give it to her and she would think he was awesome and it would allow him to get into her pants (She didn't understand why he would want to wear her pants. Poor girl.) Anyway, using the Black Widow option, I asked him to go get the Quantum instead and then we could have a threesome. He got all excited and ran off to find it. Did I just send him to his death? I waited a while but he didn't seem to come back.
GreasyDogMeat Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 How I handled Burke: After he told me his plan I ran and cried to the sheriff. We went back to confront Burke. Burke pulled a gun on the sheriff as we were leaving and shot the sheriff dead, then warned me he'd get me back. Sheriff wasn't too bright to turn his back on Burke. I reloaded and eventually managed to gun down Burke before he shot the sheriff. Dunno why I bothered though. The sheriff thanks you for your quick reflexes but you don't receive a reward.
Deadly_Nightshade Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 (edited) Fallout 2 discribed you waking up with a ball-gag in your mouth and vauge, unpleasent memories of the night before. For it's time, that counts as getting laid. There were many more "fade to black" sceens then that one... Edited November 6, 2008 by Deadly_Nightshade "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot

Deadly_Nightshade Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Well, I guess they wanted to stick to an M-rating. Yeah, well, I was at least hoping for the good old fade-to-black not, well, nothing... "Geez.

Magister Lajciak Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Maybe they consider fades to black lame?
Deadly_Nightshade Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Maybe they consider fades to black lame? More lame than paying a hooker to -literaly- sleep next to you? "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
Magister Lajciak Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Maybe they consider fades to black lame? More lame than paying a hooker to -literaly- sleep next to you? Hmm... well, I was trying to find a justification - do you have to blow it into the water?
GreasyDogMeat Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Fallout games have never been known for romance. Sex... yeah, but not romance. Fallout 1 had a hooker who would sleep with you first if you rescued her, then if you paid her visiting her later. Also a spiky haired chick working for one of the caravan crews would sleep with a charismatic character. Fallout 2 had a bit where you could sleep with a farmer's daughter (or son if you were so inclined) and were then caught in the sack with her and forced into a shotgun wedding. Sex was also everywhere in Reno. Prostitutes, a porn studio (where you could become a porn star) and you could sleep with the mob bosses' daughter AND wife on the same night. Fallout 3 only has the hooker who sleeps on the bed and some innuendo. Don't really mind. Its not the sex that makes Fallout awesome.
Calax Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I donno... I'd at least expect them to do a fade to black if you pick up a hooker. It kinda throws you out of the experiance like a shot put at the Olympics when you pay a hooker for her professional duties and then get a spooning... Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

It kinda throws you out of the experiance like a shot put at the Olympics when you pay a hooker for her professional duties and then get a spooning... Could you imagine the hysteria if there was nakedness in a game where you can decapitate people on numerous occasions, tear off limbs, turn them into slag as you hear their final cry of pain, and is loaded with "foul" language? Not to mention the rampant drug use and potential promotion of slavery. Edited November 6, 2008 by Arkan "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta
H Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 What was Bethesda afraid of when they decided to tone down the controversial themes? Pathologic was rated 16+ in Europe a couple of years ago. You could kill children there. In fact, if you got infected, you were all but forced to kill children because they often had medicine on them. Yeah, and one of the playable characters was all about killing people and studying their intestines. Curing plagues is teh hard.

Starwars Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 The most amusing thing was that either Pete or Todd said something like how they wouldn't want Fallout 3 to glorify child killing. It's strange to me how there's appearantly such a huuuuuuuuuuuge moral leap between nuking an entire town, selling people (children even I believe) into slavery, watching bullets travel in slow-mo into peoples skulls, and killing a child. I mean, I get that they want to keep the rating down. That's perfectly understandable I suppose. But don't say crap like that when you've also said stuff like "violence is % Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0
Monte Carlo Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I'm sure I'd enjoy this game if I could actually install it. Been trying all day and am now going to buy an Xbox instead.
