if you were the courier in real life,which faction would you

Post » Sun Mar 06, 2011 6:31 am

title says it all.
if you were the courrier in real life, which of the 3 major factions would you have sided with. or would you go out on your own.

(lets just say that you wouldnt be killed and whichever of the factions you picked would take control, because IRL most of us would probably get scared and stay in goodsprings :P)

I honestly would probably side with Mr.house, his visions of the future are just to grand to not want to accomplish. i just have to hope it gets accomplished.

Ps. i reserved a seat for Colonel Martyr up here with me in the Mr.house booth. and a seat for Gabriel77dan in the Caesars Legion section

If I were the Courier for real, I'd bygawd create a "Take over New Vegas for yourself, because you are The Faction" ending. :D

"Hey, did you hear everyone who used to kiss up to House is now chanting 'byebye House, hello Hammer'?"

And just like in-game, I'd pull that wackjob Hughes..er...House, I mean- out of his little iron lung, leave'im alive, and make'im watch while I did it. :evil:

Either the NCR or the Brotherhood of Steel, not sure which. I do, however, own a NCR t-shirt that I got free with my copy of FNV, so that might be the decisive factor. :)

NCR. I'd reshape the army into a more fearsome fighting force, and lead them to victory over the Legion. I'd bring the Boomers, BoS and the others into the fold and create a new New California Republic.

I see Mr. House as the corporate elite. He has it all grand inside his walls while people on the outside are seriously struggling.

Caesar's Legion are just misogynist pigs who don't deserve a second thought or the air they breathe. My character seriously is against slavery of all kinds.

The NCR has serious leadership problems and is low on resources, but they have more than anyone else. The soldiers are mostly good people although some are lazy. It could be they are demoralized because of the leadership and being spread too thin. They don't think the leadership cares because they aren't getting their supplies and have too much area to protect...and many are tired of fighting and want to go home. I see it as a morale problem. I haven't finished the main quest yet though so this is probably a bit simplistic...or maybe it's that simple.

The independent way would be anarchy and people would not watch out for each other. It would be dog eat dog. People need a good example and good leadership and direction. Who decides that? Usually something good rises to the top and people take notice.

So I went with the NCR and hope for the best and my character has worked to help them and make things better.

I dont see independence as a good option. and no i dont see it being run as a communist dictatorship or something as good. but without a leader i see the wasteland as being even worse off then if Caesar was in control

Mr. House. I admire industrialist geniuses, and he's clearly a very pro-business type of person who's capable of making New Vegas prosper. I like the plans he lays out when you speak with him. I'd have zero problem with autocracy if I knew that someone like Mr. House would be in control. I love the concept of independent city states that are run as though they were businesses.

So basically, ayone siding with CL 'for real' would approve slavery, you can all burn in hell for all i care.

As for me? im not siding with any of those power hungry idiots, i'd settle in Goodsprings, right there and then, shooting geckos in the face with my new best buddy Sunny Smiles.

Have fun.

If I were the courier....IRL...I would've given him his damn chip, taken Cass and Boone, and gotten wasted at Gomorrah, and let House figure that [censored] out....

I currently have someone nailed to a cross already, will need to wait for him to... Finish cooking... Until I can make room for a new profligate. :)

Seriously though, I don't like slaving, really, I don't. (IRL)
But I think about things in the long run and House is a dike, independence means me right? Well, me is not leader material.
And NCR while perfectly able to win the war will crumble sooner or later and all the civilized towns will once again be attacked by raiders and it's a lawless land again.
The Legion isn't pretty in what they do, I admit that, but for the wasteland to become something more than just a wasteland the best candidate out of the four is Legion for me.
In the big picture what "I" want doesn't matter, what matters is the future.
NCR has none.
House, yeah he's the saviour of the wastes.
And me?
I'm a lazy video-game playing smug bastard, what could I possibly accomplish by myself?

Mr.Goldfish, you sell yourself short...
ANyone can be a leader if they put their mind to it...there are plenty of examples in history that I will not name so as not to get off topic or political,
You could do it...And you could run like the legion - the slaves and with extra crusifictions.....

Personally I'd just go get wasted...but hey, that's me and my [censored] politics attitude....
