Which option to choose in Helios 1

Post » Mon Jan 31, 2011 11:52 am

So, at this point i'm not particularly beholden to any particular faction or karmic orientation.

while i would like to help improve the lives of thousands of wastelanders, the idea of a super weapon is rather enticing.

so which do you think i should do, arm Archimedies and track down the targeting widget so i can reign fire from the gods at people, or... be the savior to the disenfranchised and downtrodden by providing power to the region?

And no, i'm not going to vaporize a whole platoon of NCR just because i can.

Vaporize them not because you can, but because they would become a danger to your dominance later on.

How many more people could you help if you had a superweapon at your disposal though?

Is it possible to power up Archimedes, then tool around for a while making craters, and the switch power back to the wasteland?

I wanted the most NCR fame so I powered up only the strip and McCarren. The other options dont give you the NCR fame.

I did it mostly for RP reasons. I figured with what my character has experienced up till that point in the stroy he would look at the NCR as a good force trying to protect the average citizen. So doing what they would want/need would be the best thing in the long run for the people.

So purely roleplay reason and the NCR fame

Easy decision here for me. Low level when I did this, I needed weapons and armor. Took out the NCR and handed it over to the Legion. They are on my hit list as well though. Leave no one standing, New Vegas is mine, all mine, muhahahahahaha.

I did the right thing and used the technology to make power and not to activate a defense system that would kill soldiers for no reason. I did send it to the Strip and the NCR but it would benefit the wasteland more to do so.

I shared power. It was the "right" thing to do for this character. :nod:
