Well, that's what he'd do if she hadn't offered rewards...

I assume that now it's too late since he already started the quest.

So far as I know you can crush her dreams at any time. Just follow the dialogue options where you ask her about her research and what the point of it is.

I think the bottlecap schematic she gives you after Minefield is probably the most useful reward she gives you. After that is just just things like a few stealth boys, a few chems, and one Big Book of Science (after Robco). So you could do all but the last mission for the XP, and then crush her dreams. But at least do Minefield to get the bottlecap schematic.

Yeah, I usually do all the quests but the last 1-2 before crushing her dreams; and I even did it with good karma characters because the perk was so awesome! You just have to convince her that her book will get people killed to make her back off of writing it. (or is stupid, or she isn't qualified to write it, etc).

Afterward she is no longer so perky; she becomes a whiner - but boy can she repair your gear better! Not to mention you gain something like 50% less chance of being hit by enemies. That perk was one of my favorites, even if I did have to turn Moira into a depressed emo to get it.

But since you/Deeno already turned her into a ghoul, no sense having her be a perky one, when she could be a depressed one,

Still crippled

But dangerous nonetheless

From below

Explosion at Seward Square

Madman on target

I was feeling slightly nervous when Deeno was about to shoot this guy. If you miss, the scripted event is triggered, which causes a massive explosion, most likely resulting in your death. But fortunately Snake eyes killed the mad preacher with the first shot.

Deeno is one ruthless crippled bastard. Love that pic from below of the mutant getting its head ventilated.

Wait, if you killed the madman; how did the explosion happen? (and if it did, where are Deeno's arms and legs flying in the air? )

I love that little mini-quest, the first time there I got blown to bits repeatedly trying to pick up the mini-nukes and mines before he could set them off, lol. Finally realized if I shot him first I could pick them up at my leisure, lol.

I'm dying to know what he said to Reilly to get her to say that !!!

If you kill him, all mini nukes and frag mines disarm automatically and you can pick them up. Since Deeno killed him with the first shot, the preacher couldn't trigger them.

If Deeno had failed, he wouldn't be alive anymore, since I play his game as Dead-is-Dead.

He provoked Reilly by saying her that he wants to get paid first before giving her a debrief from the hotel, and then made her even more angry by saying that a merc should accept any kind of job, even a dirty one, as long as it pays well enough.

Yeah, I know, that is how I learned to do it after my initial several blow ups - I was asking about the screen "Explosion at Seward Square" - what explosion was that, if it wasn't the big one the madman sets off?

Yup, Deeno is crippled, ruthless and he smokes. . . but he’s still very cool. And a darn good shot!

Some great action pictures.

Thanks.

That explosion was caused by Deeno. He figured that he'll spent less bullets by blowing up the truck instead of shooting the super mutant brute standing atop it, so he blew up the truck and badly damaged the mutie though he still had to finish it off with the hunting rifle.

I've never done that! You have inspired me to try it!

This is your trademark style, Lopov. You have this habit of getting the camera aimed straight toward your character's nose; you've been doing this for years. Anytime I see a pic like this, I'll know it's yours



This sounds like something out of Tomb Raider. Do or die.

Showdown on Pennsylvania Ave! Love the old car hulks in the street.

Closer = tender moment?

Aww, interrupted by hydrant dude. Turned out to be the big ugly dude’s last mistake, I see. Serves him right for interrupting. . . .

Deeno is still slugging it out in Seward Square. On the way to Ranger HQ?

Yep, I know that red-head. Don't tell me Deeno actually has a heart?

Is Deeno going to do some legislating?

Deeno really looks evil. He reminds me of Vincent Klyn, the bad guy from Cyborg

Behemoth does acrobatics! Looks like Reilly disarmed it.

First off, I am once again stunned by this mod that allows you to make anyone a follower! How Awesome to be able to travel with Reilly!

Second - I absolutely LOVE "Closer" - AWESOME shot!! Oh yeah, Deeno has a weakness for Reilly, lol. Awesome shot !!!

I was really worried it was the end of Reilly when the Behemoth hit her in the head with that fire hydrant! So the "Personal Archive" shot was a real relief to see!!!

But "Deeno Makes The Beast Fly" - that one needs to go into the record books, I have NEVER seen a behemoth fly before no matter how powerful the weapon, that one had me laughing out loud - my favorite of the bunch !!!!

Nice, that's awesome they kissed (I think)

Perhaps. And perhaps there's more to come.

Who knows?

They're similar indeed, I'll have to look up that movie.



I didn't see anything.

Deeno is ugly?

Love the shots of Deeno with his big boy sniper rifle. Heh, he's just a poor ol' ugly smoothskin.

Deeno looks pretty ticked off at Congress in that pic outside the Capitol Building!

Don't make that face Deeno, it's bad enough that you are a smoothskin!
