Seems to be a lack of evil companions : Fallout: New Vegas

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 11:48 am

Now I know that the karma system in New Vegas allows any player to take any companion, I can't help but feel that there aren't really any suitable followers for an evil PC, from a roleplay perspective. Back in Fallout 3 we had an ex-raider and a crazy slave, but the current lot all seem far too benign, or at least neutral. Granted, they're far more interesting than FO3's, but none of them feel quite right for my current playthrough.

Even if they are neutral I think that, by following you, they will be complicit in your evil actions. Therefore, they become de facto evil.

I agree that a Ceasar's Legion guy would have been an obvious choice as a companion. I think it's strange that it wasn't included. Even if it's a washed up retired Legionary just looking out for himself. Perhaps the DLC will rectify this.

And I see no indication of any kind that he is evil.

Amen, and I love your avatar. Not sure if you actually do share my views, or if that is just meant to be humorous, but hurrah for the Confirmed Bachelor Perk! For the first time my male characters can be what they WANT to be in a Bethesda game without needing a mod. :goodjob:

I still have yet to do Arcade's quest, but I like him a lot so far. Maybe I will wind up disliking him though, but for now, I am biased in his favor. Love his looks, love his voice, love dressing him in a desperado cowboy hat and a chained prosttute outfit. :hubbahubba: Boone goes around in modded clothes, because the chained prosttute outfit looks silly with his beret that he will not part with (he is cute when he asks for it back), so I just put him in Breeze's shirtless fatigues ported over for New Vegas from the original Fallout 3 mod. :drool:

Well if your views are for sixual equality then yes :thumbsup:

I tend to dress Boone up in silly clothing just because he is so serious, I feel he hates me though after days of running round the Mojave in a Centurion helmet and Benny's Suit.
I liked Arcade enough not to bother messing with his outfit, I thought it suited his character better than the frankly mediocre looking combat/metal armours.
