Journalists don't seem to be talking much about the no-kill

I long for more diplomatic ways to resolve quests. I don't want to be able to talk to most creatures or animals and such but in quests, I would like the option to resolve things in a diplomatic manner. And for doing so have consequences of their own.

Wild Wasteland and either Good Natured or Four Eyes. I want to try running a game as a science based character running around with lab coat and a pair of glasses, but don't know if I'll be able to keep to that for long.

The character won't have sneak, so the need for armor will probably come up.

Edit: I totally confused the thread for another one. But yeah, relating to the above, I'd really like to do a pacifistic game, but without having to need sneak. I'm not sure how feasible it's going to be.

I'm kind of disappointed in that. I would think that would be a good talking-point for the game about how many options the player has to get through the game. In fact most articles seem to be focusing on the different ways of dealing death to people. I find that a sad commentary on our society.

I, for one, at least, am planning on going the pacificst route on my first playthrough as well as playing on hardcoe mode.

Anybody else planning on doing that as well or am I alone? :(


ya it disappoints me that the focus of the journalism is death and dealing it, but im not going to go pacificst on my first play through, I will some time but not my first one...

I doubt I'll be doing the no kill mode first play through, I'm no fan of torture porm, but I am certainly NOT a pacifist:)

I hate to say it, but in some situations, your only option is to kill, in real life as well......try talking your way out of getting suicide bombed by some crazy Muslim.....did you try it? Oh wait, your legs are over there in the corner, and your arms are just blown apart.....so I'm guessing talking it over with him didnt work out?
