Re: Part 4 - The Great Escape

As much as I hate to point this out --- this part right here? One of the few instances of C&C in the game:

There's a quest later on, where you recieve a distress call from Vault 101 --- thing is, you only get it if you left the Overseer alive. Yes, it is possible to sneak out of Vault 101 without confronting the Overseer.
Not true. You still get the quest even if you kill Overseer. According to this page, "If you killed the original Overseer while escaping from Vault 101, Allen Mack will be the new Overseer and you can still do this quest"

Aww, why didn't you read the file on the overseer's computer with the great PLOT TWIST that people have left the vault a kajillion times and they let new people in too?
I apologize. I must have missed that. I'm not using a walkthrough or anything like that, so I might miss some stuff throughout the game.
And honestly, by the time I got to that point, I was just trying to get out of the V101 as quickly as possible. Seriously, this game's tutorial section is really fucking long (It feels even longer when you're taking screenshots every 3 seconds and writing commentary about it). :)

Re: Part 4 - The Great Escape

I think the average time for the tutorial clocks in at, like, 1 hour? That's pretty long for an unskippable tutorial. It's immersive, tho'

Yes, the quest never locks off. Which is, of course, perfectly logical, because there's an achievement tied to that quest. And you can't just lock off achievements, you might upsets the Ksbawksers.

So, the overseer just happened to be carrying a piece of paper with his password on it or something?

Or did your pip-boy extract it from his deceased brain somehow? Or what?

Also, I don't own any of the official DLC (yes, I actually bought F3), so I'm not going to do any of that stuff.

You have to eat his brain to gain knowledge.

Also an Achievement.

But of course.

Carry on, then.

Pirate the DLC and LP it. Avenge my level 20 power armor wearing enclave-killing water-cleaning portable nuke-using chosen one of a character who was knocked out by raiders in The Pitt with batons via cutscene.

Insert Title Here RPG Wokedex Codex Year of the Donut I'm very into cock and ball torture
A friend of mine bought F3 and I played it, so I feel innocent. (I gave up when I reached level 7, disgusted with what I had become.)

Much of which is atleast partially inspired by the several other LPs around here and across the Internet.

That in particular is something that Locue did particuarly well in his LP.

The best LP I've ever read was the adventures of Steve the Avatar through Ultima 4-7, with a stop over in Martian Dreams. I think it was done over at the SA forums.

This one is getting close though. Keep it up.
