why are all companions good (vs.evil) : Fallout: New Vegas

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 5:50 pm

obviously with the exceptions of ed-e and rex. I would argue that all companions are "good guys". I miss clover, jericho, and even the nuetrality of charon, the mister gutsy, and butch. There really aren't any new companions that work with the leigon stories.

If you had a leigon dude/girl walking around with you they would be getn shot at ever 5min with so many NCR around the Waste. unless it was a EX legion that the NCR could careless about or have a quest where you get them a pardon.

But they wouldn't do that NV wonts you to LOVE the NCR

Because the game hates evil people. I mean, if you kill ghouls and fiends, you gain good karma! Wtf! Evil kill good = evil, good kill evil = good, good kill good = evil, evil kill evil = evil. It doesn't matter if you're evil or not, they'll still attack you. So Obsidian eff'd up hard at that point. It's really hard to maintain a neutral or evil karmic balance, which svcks.

Raul is sort of neutral, I would say.

Spoiler

He certainly isn't anti-legion. If you talk to him about legion he will tell you how it used to be much worse in the east before legion took over there.

Supposedly a follower by the name of Ulysses was cut from the game. By the roman name one could speculate he was a Caesar's Legion character.

Spoiler

Rex is Legion

If movies taught me anything its that evil companions always betray you.

I despise House and his outrageous demands.

But they all ways get you the most $ then just kill them lol.

No maybe it could be one that was kicked out of the legion becuase he would execute some one or something but still is loyal? im just saying

This game is really set up against people with bad karma as a rule, which I find annoying.

It's true that there are no evil companions, but most companions don't give a [censored] if you kill NCR. Pretty much only Boone will attack you for killing NCR.

I got Boone to kill like 20 of them once then after we where done he says. something like "i cant do this any more its gota stop" then i killed him i hate you cant take his gun!

His gun uses Magical Companions rounds. Therefore you couldn't use it anyway. :whistling:

There should be an evil companion for those that want to play that way.

However, Evil usually works alone, Good usually works with others.

Joshua Graham (the Burned Man) was supposed to be a companion in Van Buren (the Fallout 3 that never was) and a LOT of the elements from Van Buren got recycled into New Vegas, I'm kinda surprised he didn't make a reappearance.

He was about as evil as they come.

yeah they usely have a few buddy's then a lot of minions then kill them all in the end.

I play a good character, always, but I do understand your annoyance at the lack of "evil" characters. They would have been something to see, alright.

acorrding to the VAULT fallout wiki he was executed. http://http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Joshua_Graham "Caesar ordered his execution"

It would be cool to have an Evil Companion that would whisper in my ear "Go ahead, shoot them, they are not worthy" as I was exploring.

Or, say "What would Charles Manson do?" as I was contemplating doing something.
