Have to agree with several others here, the writing is garbage tier reddit/tumblr fan fiction. I am -forcing- myself to play through now that I'm at Monarch but so far this is my experience:
1) Nearly every NPC of importance is a stronk independent wahmen. I mean every single one. Chief of Police Edgewater, Head of Security Groundbreaker, Chief Juliel, Sublight chief, etc. etc. it skews at least about 2/3 to 1/3 Female-to-male I'd say.
2) Related, almost every one of these women are the same personality cloned over & over again because it is the only thing these fucking lefty robots know how to write being that they see the world through their one dimensional prism. Snarky, sarcastic, and so hip and in on the joke at all times. The very thing that drives most men away from them IRL too because it gets so incredibly tiresome so fast. Other than Parvati there hasn't been a single somewhat feminine female in the game, I guess at least they throw you a bone early on even if she has no interest in a bone or anything else. *shrug*
3) The game should be called the Outer Fedex Processing Center. "Go get me this doodad, hey! can you go fetch this flimflam, do you have time to retrieve my fidget spinner?" 75% of the quests are of this variety, particularly the side quests. Again, we are churning out NPC Robots by the truckload atindoctrination centers universities who are trained to not have an original thought in their tiny manipulable brains. This comes out hugely in the quest design & particularly the writing.
Anyone carrying water for this game that it is even remotely in the league of even Fallout 4 much less NV has clearly heavily hit the crack pipe just prior to playing. It is shit tier writing, especially after the wonderful graphic novel (pseudo RPG) Disco Elysium.
