I got to thinking about having a pet gecko when I noticed something, geckos in fallout classics are bipedal. Though in one of the first screenshots of the Courier throwing a grenade at geckos, ones of them was on four legs. A gecko in the G4TV vid with MCA was biped in New Vegas too.
I would like it if the geckoes make a return in New Vegas. Perhaps some smaller settlements support themselves by having a gecko based economy, selling the creature's priced skin to the rich people in Vegas and the other factions in exchange for food and resources. It can also be a way for the player to earn some cash and experience in the early game. Maybe even a good karma side quest of gathering gecko skins for a poor family.
And would be great to see a actual economy this time around.
Forget Karma, we got got factions.
The gecko skinning was in Fallout 2. Golden skin can sell for more compared to the normal ones. I would like to see an actual economy too. But the player will still have to find a way to earn money somehow.
I think that brief look of the Fire Gecko in the gamechurch interview was on two legs also. Also i took another look of the first shot of the baby gecko, turns out it might be doing a lunge instead of actually being on all fours.
