Shi was my Glargg character, to get familiar with the game. Now that I have a better idea how NV plays, I rolled a more permanent toon to beat the game with.

Aurora is a science geek. Naturally she has the Four Eyes perk, along with Small Frame (not sure if the latter really helps her much, since she uses energy weapons, but hey, it fits her lab-girl background). She is currently working on finding a new sheriff for Nipton.

Arnaud likes geeky girls... biggrin.gif ...

Aaamywho...Isn't the sheriff thing, Primm?...Ne'ermind, we know what you mean... laugh.gif ...

For a short while this morning, Arnaud headed southwards out of Primm, on a farming expedition...Eventually he got to the Mohave Outpost and saw about getting some of his stuff repaired by the dude on the desk...I forget his name...




EDIT...I never watch Family Guy, but I've seen the little bit with the Next Generation bunch...So am I the only one who can never see either the name or the actor himself without saying Hwill Hwheaton?... biggrin.gif ...

Ooh, I was thinking of starting a new character like that; feller by the name of Nicholas Telsen (badum-tish!), one who wouldn't really pay all that much attention to the main quest but instead wander around the wasteland doing all the 'sciencey' quests he can find; Tag-up Science, Repair and Energy Weapons as his main three skills.

In other news, I'm about 3 quarters of the way through Dead Money. I'm developing PTSD from it, I'm sure I am. So goddamn scary...

I've been playing a new character recently, Giving Eva a break from her wasteland dwellings. Haha.

Sienna was a master theif, using her skills taught from her father to break into safes to get money after being forced to leave Vault 3 with her father. She got out of that game when she was 15 (she is 21 when her game starts) and decided to travel the wasteland.

Eventually she met a Ghoul called Raul, and they travelled the wasteland together. However, during a pit stop Raul find his favorite radio station, Black Mountain Radio, has a faulty signal, so alone he goes to Black Mountain without Sienna; only leaving her a note.

After a week Sienna begins to seriously worry about Raul not returning, so she sets off to look for him.

She had Guns, Lockpick and Sneak tagged. She starts her game just before she meets Neil, where she is already level 6.

Her world is the same as Eva's, so that'll be interesting! haha

Doh! Yes, that is Primm! Except for Goodsprings, I cannot keep all the towns straight. Nipton's the one with the Legion in it when you first arrive, right?

That is exactly the same 3 skills that Aurora tagged up and has been working on the most! Which is good because she needed two of them to get E-DE working again. He makes the perfect follower for a techie. Though I am still getting used to the music he plays in combat. It freaked me out at first because I was not sure where it was coming from.

Oh yeah, I remember that that music always made me jump when I first heard it. If you want another good follower for a Techie, I'd recommend Veronica; she fits that theme rather well and she's voiced by Felicia Day. What more could you possibly want?

In other news, in order to do something nice and calming after his harrowing experiencing escaping the Sierra Madre, Courier picked up his main man Boone and went and hit up Quarry Junction. Took out Big Mama Deathclaw with his trusty missile launcher companion Annabel and Big Papa Deathclaw with his favourite, stupidly overpowered hunting rifle in the game, Pacencia (honestly, that weapon is absurd). Most, most satifisfying to see that monster fall.

Yep...I remember the first time I walked into Nipton, I'd just gotten hassled by the girl who wants the star caps and then turns on you...Which actually freaked me out a bit...It was before I'd gotten ED-E...Aaamywho...I walked into Nipton and was sooo disgusted by what I saw there that as soon as Vulpes the Dog-head had finished his blabbing I shot him in the head and proceeded to take the entire bunch of them out...FUN!!!...That was the start of Arnaud's mission of vengance against the Legion...

I love ED-E sooo much...The music always makes me laugh when it starts...The only problem I have is that when he kills a raider, I have no idea which direction he's been pointing when the cut-scene happens!!... biggrin.gif ....

I didnīt go there the first time and when I learned about it, I had to go back!

In recent events, a particular ghoul with a nasty name anyone whoīs read up on certain things wouldnīt like, is no more. Nuff said, lets move on.

Hubrics Comics sewers. Just at the entrance, moving forward. A place I havenīt been to before but now itīs time.

(Ususally I refrain from double-post like this, but since no one has written after me...)

Hubris Comics. Ground floor.

Messing around, sneak shooting ferals with my trusty ( and silent) Dart Gun. Suddenly I find a working terminal. A working terminal, with an adventure game in it!! A beta version of Reign of Grelok!
So there I was, in a game, playing a game. Maybe itīs not that far from The Truth.

Proceeding onwards, towards the man behind all the traps laid out...

I don't usually jump threads but I have to quote something that you wrote elsewhere:

I really wish I could put my finger on things like you do. Problem is I know what i think but I can rarely spell it out.

You are hereby advised that you can no longer sell yourself short like this. Reading about your adventures in the wasteland makes me want to fire up the ol' Fallout 3 again!

Playing FONV makes me want to fire up FO3 again... I will probably do so once I finish up the character I am on.

Courier joined up with the Happy Trails caravan company's expedition to Zion valley today. It didn't quite go as well as planned, but now he's hooked up with a group of friendly tribals from the White Horse clan, and even got himself a new companion in the form of the very charming and amenable Follows Chalk. Currently the two are scavenging through some pre-war buildings to gather supplies for the White Horses.

I'm liking what I've played so far of Honest Hearts quite a bit; Zion Valley looks absolutely gorgeous, Follows Chalk is an absolute joy to play alongside and I'm enjoying the new weapons an enemies (the return of the Yaoi Guai was warmly welcomed by myself). Having played Dead Money, though, I'm slightly worried that Obsidian are going to pull the same 'you must leave your equipment before you play this DLC' stunt with every single expansion. It worked fine for Dead Money, as Dead Money was basically a survival horror expansion, but it seems a bit unnecessary with Honest Hearts; I can appreciate that they don't want you to steamroller the enemies you encounter, but I'm steamrolling the enemies I encounter in any case so I just had to faff about with packing before I went, which was just annoying and silly.

Aurora has added Veronica to her team, and lately the two wimmins + E-DE have been exploring around New Vegas itself. Aurora scored herself a suit of swanky black combat armor from some dead Van Graff thugs. After killing some Fiends, they went north and explored Vault 22. That was pretty neat. I have never seen a vault like that one.

I also found that there is something weird going on with the lighting around Vegas. There is always a haze in the air near the city. It goes away when I use the console to force clear weather, so there is definitely some kind of issue.

The Yogis are back! Cool. I was wondering where they were, and I was sure I had seen them mentioned in FONV. I guess they are just in that one DLC.

All that leave your equipment behind stuff never did much for me. Not after what we go through to get that stuff in the first place! I think I will probably try the Lonesome Road DLC first then, since my character already has E-DE, and I know that he figures highly in that one.

I think they are named after these critters. But I have always called them Yogis, seeing that they are bears and all.
