Help. Ever since I did the "Trouble Brewin" mission Piper makes the sound the Dinkin Buddy Robot made. ts that clacking sound and it is constant. I have sent Piper away and come back and she still makes it. Thing is we had just reached max on our relationship and now it is like having a girlfriend you can't stand being around. Anyone know how I can fix this?

Yeah, dump her.

It's a common issue with girlfriends. First they're all hot and sixy, and then when you commit they start making weird noises and wear sweat pants instead of lingerie.

Silence is golden.. and duct tape is silver.

But, yeah that is strange. Maybe try sending her home for a day, sleep and get her back as a companion. That may fix the issue.

Given their extremely limited vocabulary I wish all the NPCs would shut up unless I'm directly interacting with them.

I don't care about settlers' dirty fingernails.

I don't care about how swell the Vault-Tec rep feels.

I know that people have tried to kill Piper. Believe me... I know.

And so on.

Past a certain point in the game this aspect stops being immersive and ends up just being annoying as hell.

That is an amazing glitch, I guess you could load a save before the quest or try leveling until she reloads whenever that is.

I had the same glitch with Piper. She was like that crocodile from Peter Pan.

Found no solution I'm afraid to say. I started a new game.

shes a reporter AND a woman - what do you expect?

it is that Trouble Brewin quest. Mine was glitched with the robot. Not that it was making human walking sounds, just that it could not be completed.

Lol At least have some fun with it. Dress her up in synth armor, do some Terminator role playing. A robot custom animation mod would make things even more interesting.
