One of my favorite dialogue options in that game was when talking to Dr. O in the Old World Blues DLC. He laments that his name is really "Dr. Zero", but nobody realizes that. So, with an Intelligence check of 9+, you tell him:

"If you wanted to differentiate the 'O' and '0', just put a slash through the zero."

His response is a flat "What?".

Care to explain?

Edit: I now know.

[–]Hight3chLowlif3 190ポイント191ポイント  (0子コメント)

Sorry, you need an intelligence of 9+ to unlock this dialogue option.

Some zeroes are written with a line in the middle yo gelp differentiate. Google images I guess.

[–]ToaKraka 27ポイント28ポイント  (3子コメント)

An ellipse with a diagonal line drawn through it: ∅

Properly, it represents the empty set--but, in handwriting (and fixed-width typefaces), it's sometimes used to differentiate "zero" from the uppercase form of the fifteenth letter of the alphabet.

Sophus Lie is arguably one of the most renowned mathematicians throughout modern history. He introduced the Ø to modern algebra.

He was Norwegian, and Ø is also the 28th out of 29 letters in the Norwegian alphabet. booya

It also means "diameter" on blueprints/schematics/engineering drawings. You'll see "Ø 3.5mm" with an arrow pointing to a circular feature.

Technically diameter "⌀" is not supposed to be the same thing, but it LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME as the lowercase at least, and the uppercase looks right too, and diameter may be represented with the uppercase or lowercase unicode of the Norwegian character, because the diameter ⌀ symbol may not be available on the target machine's font.

[–]MightyMrFish 17ポイント18ポイント  (3子コメント)

I guess it's a combination of the delivery and the subject matter. I use a lot of math, so I always slash my zeroes, so seeing that require a 9+ Intelligence check is pretty ridiculous (in a humorous way). And the delivery is like a "that's such a simple solution…why didn't I think of that?"

It's like if a group of people spend hours trying to open a door: they try to pick the locks, try blasting it open, look for different entrances. Then someone walks up and says "Did you try this?" and opens the door by simply turning the knob.

[–]opertive1 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

oh i thought it was a joke referencing how only the character can see peoples name so putting a slash through the o wouldn't make sense.

[–]top_koala 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

That's also part of it. It's ridiculous in the first place that they thought he was Dr O

[–]Not-An-Underling 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

Thin circles with a roughly 3/2 angle line running through it is recognized as a 0, and cannot be mistaken for an O. Here's a Wikipedia article.

[–]Willielilja 7ポイント8ポイント  (3子コメント)

Yeah, cool and all but the problem with this is that it would heavily confuse any scandinavian having them guess whether its Dr. O, Dr.Ö or Dr:Ø. To any swedish player he should henceforth be known as Dr. Island

[–]ParallelZodiacDev 23ポイント24ポイント  (7子コメント)

No, he was in Freeside begging for caps. There's a mod that restores a quest they almost built into New Vegas called "Rotface to Riches" where the more caps you give him for his "information", the richer and more well-off he gets.

I loved it when the legion ambushed me randomly throughout the game.

[–]TheLostcause 35ポイント36ポイント  (2子コメント)

Not sure if you mean that sarcastically, as it did start to get old, but to slowly get more and more powerful for the same random encounters was a nice feeling. Early on you were shitting bricks hoping you had a recent save, but by the end you were brushing them all off. Those encounters felt like the most obvious sign of progression in the game.

Yes the game is pretty good. But my god it is circle jerked into a near perfect status so often, it's like nobody can see or remember how flawed it was too. It's the rose-colored snowball effect.

[–]GuntyGinger 65ポイント66ポイント  (17子コメント)

It's definitely not perfect. The legion campaign was a bit lackluster especially since a lot of side quests are based on siding with the NCR. The story and choices is by far the best in a modern fallout game, which is what most people talk about when they're saying it's great.

[–]Neopolitann 28ポイント29ポイント  (12子コメント)

One of the things that they wish they could have improved on but couldn't due to the time constraints and expand on was the legion. However for 18 months its not a shoddy piece of work

[–]GuntyGinger 22ポイント23ポイント  (11子コメント)

Definitely impressive for only 18 months, it'd could have been even better if it was given proper time.

[–]MrMylar 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

NCR has the most quests, and the quests are mostly good ones, but I oddly find them the least interesting faction even aside of ideological reasons. House, Caesar, and even Yes Man are extremely engaging characters. NCR's closest equivalent is probably Chief Hanlon.

[–]ShwayNorris 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

which is really impressive considering they had like no time at all for making the game, if it had been given the proper amount of time for development New Vegas would have been revolutionary.

[–]Mic_Check_One_Two 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

Yeah, I made a character specifically to side with the legion, just so I could collect the achievements. Since I got those, I've never touched the Legion questline again.

I think the issue is that there's no morally grey area - The Legion is just all around bad. In order for both sides to have merit and be worth supporting, both sides need some sort of benefit or draw. The only real "benefits" that the Legion has are actually from the NCR - The NCR is stretched thin because they over-expanded, and the NCR has high taxes. The Legion, on the other hand, has focused its forces in the Mojave, and has lower taxes in comparison... But again, those aren't direct benefits of the Legion, they're just shortcomings of the NCR.

I think they tried to take a Shin Megami Tensei approach to things, but didn't follow through enough. SMT always has two opposing factions - One side is in favor of ultimate law, while the other is in support of ultimate chaos. Law's benefits are that society is perfectly fair. However, this means the strong are forced to support the weak. Chaos, on the other hand, believes that the strong should survive and the weak should perish. I feel like they tried to do something similar, but didn't make it extreme enough on either side, so there wasn't a distinct benefit and drawback to each side. As a result, there was no grey area.

[–]GuntyGinger 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's sad as well because I find Caesar as a character really interesting.

[–]Simplicity3245 31ポイント32ポイント  (30子コメント)

I remember not liking it much at all when it first released compared to FO3. It grew on me though, and now I enjoy it more than FO4. Go figure.

[–]FinalTitan 19ポイント20ポイント  (12子コメント)

I did the same thing. I got it a few weeks after release and I remember nearly fucking hating it. Fast forward to all the dlc being released, I don't even remember what made me give it another try, but I loved it. Probably one of my favorite games now. Easily some of the best DLC I've ever played

[–]Lobo2ffs 7ポイント8ポイント  (1子コメント)

My favourite thing about FO:NV was the perk Jury Rigging. I once started a game of Fallout 3, played up to level 14 while I had leveled my repair to 90, couldn't find Jury Rigging, realized I was playing the wrong game and started a new save on New Vegas instead.

[–]Mic_Check_One_Two 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ever heard of the Tale of Two Wastelands mod? It combines FO3 and NV - You start in Vault 13 from FO3, then the capital wasteland has a train you can take to New Vegas to get shot in the head and become the courier. It runs on FO:NV's engine, so you can play through 3 with all the extra benefits, (coughironsights*cough,) and New Vegas mods.

[–]Neopolitann 4ポイント5ポイント  (8子コメント)

I wonder if the same will happen to your perception of Fallout 4 if another is released, that'l be interesting

[–]Simplicity3245 2ポイント3ポイント  (5子コメント)

I would normally assume so, but FO4 feels like almost a different genre altogether for me. The DLC's haven't impressed me much either. There are always mods though. Good communities make disappointing games really enjoyable.

[–]Neopolitann 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

And bad communities make good games feel worthless, hating Fallout 4 in the fallout sub is like hating Nickelback.

[–]Logi_Ca1 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

FO4 is a travesty that doesn't deserve to be called a RPG game. A game where your choices don't matter, where the quests are uninspired as hell, and fuck Preston Garvey to death.

[–]Simplicity3245 3ポイント4ポイント  (2子コメント)

I think it was their reformed perk system that put a dagger in it for me. I could even overlook the poor RPG elements, but character development is where it is at for me.

[–]Doxbox49 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

What character development?

[–]Mic_Check_One_Two -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yep, the perk system is just awful. Maybe if they let you view the perk tree when you were assigning your SPECIAL points, so you at least knew what you were getting into. But the whole "we told you what the points affected, but now you have to deal with being locked out of 3/4ths of the perks you want because you wanted high INT at the start" thing is just a slap in the face.

[–]OtakuMecha 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

A ton of Fallout fans already believe F4 compares poorly to NV

[–]Noltonn 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah, my first playthrough I thought it was good, but not that great. I really only appreciated the depth years later, when I reinstalled it some random weekend and suddenly I put in hundreds of hours over multiple playthroughs.

[–]killit 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

I got it soon after release, played it twice, didn't like it, not my typical style of game at all, somehow I got into fo4 and now I love that, only started giving nv a try again this week. Seem alright so far.

[–]throwyourshieldred 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Same. Originally I thought it was a glorified expansion. I recently picked it up again and it really is a fantastic, imaginative entry into the series that tried a lot of new things and succeeded.

[–]Mic_Check_One_Two 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

Same here. It has some pacing issues at the beginning, which leaves things a little too open-ended IMO - A lack of direction means you honestly have no idea what to do besides wander around and hope you find something meaningful.

Even now, many of the quests are too damned difficult to find or trigger. You can legitimately think you've finished nearly all the quests, while in reality you've only done half of them. That can be nice in a way because it means there's always more to discover. But when that "discovery" is simply talking to a random wandering NPC that you need to stumble across by accident, it can get frustrating.

[–]trickylikeaninja 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

I don't understand this complaint and I see it pop up all the time. If you talk to the townspeople in Goodsprings, they all warn you not to try going north. You get missions leading you south.

Yet everytime NV is brought up, someone always says "Well I just didn't understand the beginning it was just too difficult". No, it just means you didn't read.

[–]Mic_Check_One_Two 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's because your only real quest at that point is to find Benny - You know he's from New Vegas, so you open up your map, find New Vegas, and head straight there... Or at least, you try to. Nobody wants to go chasing breadcrumbs across the Mojave, when heading straight to New Vegas seems plausible.

The game designers want you to go follow Benny's path, because that's how you find a lot of sidequests and companions. But new players want to head straight to New Vegas, regardless of what the game tells them they should do. Players don't like having their hands held through open-world games, and the beginning of New Vegas makes it feel like the designers are doing just that.

[–]IAmThePulloutK1ng 11ポイント12ポイント  (26子コメント)

It deserves a 95% easy. The flaws are well-tolerable.

[–]Neopolitann 12ポイント13ポイント  (11子コメント)

Unless you got it on release, the flaws were fixed but it was unplayable in some cases.

[–]Balorganorg 8ポイント9ポイント  (9子コメント)

Seriously. It was the crashingest thing on the planet on PS3. How did they even manage that, when they were using the same engine as FO3?

Also, the tweaks made to armor were poorly playtested. God help you if you pissed off the Legion in Nipton and they began sending assassins your way. Their armor (even though it didn't look like much) was nigh indestructible.

[–]ShwayNorris 7ポイント8ポイント  (4子コメント)

made by an entirely different team/company with pretty much zero time for Beta testing before release. You can thank Bethesda for those time constraints.

As for the your Nipton example, that fight is supposed to be pretty much impossible at low level, it's working exactly as intended. You need a gun with higher base dmg or more gun skill to get through such high level DT. I mean you generally wouldn't try to fight a deathclaw at lvl 10 either, same thing.

[–]Logi_Ca1 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

They were forced to squeeze out the game in 9 months IIRC, and to be fair it has more real content than FO4, in terms of actual content that matters like quests and story. FO4 looks really pretty on the inside, but once you get past the exterior it's pretty empty inside.

[–]ShwayNorris 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah and then Bethesda refused to give them their Bonus because they didn't hit 85% on metacritic. They had 84%. Feels like Bethesda are trying to become to new EA at the past 6 years or so.

Now that I think about it, yes I did try the work arounds and it seemed to fix it, but then I had an issue where the mouse-click stopped working when I pulled up the pip-boy. I just gave up on the game.

Ah gotcha. Well it's still abnormal for FNV to be causing any stress to a system with that hardware so I doubt it's the application's fault.

His RAM could be failing too, although that will manifest as random crashing through to whole computer not just FNV. He needs to run Memtest86.

[–]ACrispWinterDay -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

They are well known issues. I can fix it by reinstalling the game, but it's kind of a pain uninstalling/reinstalling the game every time something goes wrong, which generally does after a few hours of play. I can play any other game with no issues, so it's not like there's something wrong with my PC.

There were a lot of bugs, which I think were caused by them trying to give you so much free choice. It's probably also why the quests in Fallout 4 are so comparatively linear. That said, I enjoy both of them.

I didn't like it that much tbh. After 300+ hours in fallout 3, I went into NV feeling "oh, this again"

[–]topdangle 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's more of an effect of how bad the writing and story branching is in FO4. When NV was released there was plenty of complaints about how ridiculously buggy the game was, with people sliding on floors and npcs frozen during quests. Now everyone sees that things could be worse so NV is glorified.

Plus it actually was a good game when it became playable.

[–]Nisas 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

The only major complaints I have about the game are that the shooting mechanics are clunky and horrible (bethesda's fault, obsidian couldn't really do anything about that) and the game is super linear early on. Gotta follow the big U shape to get to new vegas.

I needed to take a break from college to put money aside otherwise I was going to go broke completely. I knew someone who had formerly worked there and they suggested I submit a resume, and got in as a testing intern (basically full time, paid internship, 40-60 hours a week). Kept at it for a little over 4 years.

There was good and bad like any job. Being able to help shape a game as basically a nobody working on college was awesome. Sometimes there was politics or stuff that got to be irritating. Overall the studio and the people were amazing though.

FO4 didn't want to spend money on making like 20x more content than would actually be experienced in one playthrough, so there's few meaningful options here and only one way to play your character.

The dialogue options are a lie. You have "options" but they don't change anything most of the time. Even when they do, the effects are limited to changing the next line of response from the NPC, nothing deeper.

I disagree about Nuka World. My main problem with F4 was the lack of player choice and being railroaded into a good character. Then for NW they monorailed you into being a bad character, with only park exploration left if you choose the good path.

I never even tried the DLC. I put 30 hours into FO4 and was done. It was the least amount of time I've put into any Fallout game. Didn't even replay it.

Same experience. Got to 40 hours in a couple of weeks, then I closed it and it hasn't been opened since. FO3 definitely has the most hours for me.

I haven't played Fallout 4 yet, but I keep hearing it didn't meet expectations. What do you mean by "Bethesda...made a mistake"?

[–]Neopolitann 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Made a few I'd say, lack of skill points resulting in no skill checks, however perk checks were then re-added. The dialogue system in general, the lack of evil options, the guidance towards particular factions (Minutemen). It is not as much as an RPG as it should be

Does it make it more of a RPG? Do you think I should pick up a season pass for the DLCs?

[–]Neopolitann 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

It doesn't expand as much as it should on the base game, however there is changes there, the season pass isn't worth the money IMO, I got it on the cheap before they raised the price when the DLC actually came out. But inside of the DLCs themselves, it is more of an RPG.

Cool thanks for the reply! Guess I will wait for it to be on the next sale, if and whenever that happens.

I just installed I on Xbox One. I played for an hour, and I'm totally hooked again.

There have only been a few other games where I've felt compelled to pause it so I could masturbate. That happened several times while I was playing New Vegas--still happens sometimes and I've got over 500 hours in.

The writing and acting is very good. Certain exchanges aroused me to the point I needed to masturbate. Doesn't happen in many games.

Lol. But why is it creepy? No different than masturbating to TV or film, right?

[–]IAmThePulloutK1ng 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Well mainly because normal non-creepy people don't go into detail about the fairly innocuous things they touch themselves to with strangers. But other reasons too.

[–]Maert 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Have you not played any of the RPGs before that? It is not terrible, but it is still nowhere near the real RPG classics.

I started playing it again recently on my PC. No mods but vanilla graphics maxed out.... Cannot believe how awful the graphics are. Great game though.

Obsidian are one of the best Crpg developers in the business. As much as I love Bethesda they don't really "get" the Fallout franchise imo

[–]nurb101 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

The original's writings were good too.

I still can't believe you can bluff check right through one of the hardest parts if you're dumb enough.

Chris Avellone is the best writer in video games

Too bad he wasted most of his career at Obsidian where the gameplay just never matched his talents

Always hoped he'd move onto screen writing
