What is Unc’s problem?
>>
>>730704620
He's Gary Christie from Alien Resurrection
>>
>>730704620
Oh so that's why he sounds so old I thought he was younger so when I heard his voice lines i thought it was just a bad casting
Also why the fuck does he try to talk all mysterious and shit but he's not actually saying anything deep just random musings
>>
>>730704735
>Also why the fuck does he try to talk all mysterious and shit
Because he's not a character, he's Chris Avellone anger at Obsidian.

Chris was big mad at all FNV was showing society recovering from the nukes. He wants Fallout to remain a post apocalyptic setting, instead of post-post apocalyptic.

Chris knew he was leaving Obsidian after the last of the NV DLCs released. He's spoken at length how much he hated what it had become under Feargus.

I never realized there were hints for the dlcs in the game
>With respect to the narrative, we made sure we laid the foundation for Ulysses with Nash in Primm to establish the mystery for Lonesome Road, there were plenty of references to the Burned Man in Honest Hearts in the loading screens and in character dialogue that Josh Sawyer (NV Project Director) took care to place in, and I fleshed out the Elijah hooks with Veronica in coordination with Eric Fenstermaker and sat in on Felicia Day's voice recording session for her backstory with Elijah to make sure it connected to Dead Money (although we had to mask the references in the GECK so it didn't spoil what was to come). Eric also helped by setting up evidence of Elijah's path with the bomb collar victims in the Mojave as well.

This, he was a cuck

And the whole point to "Begin Again" was him leaving, too many people thought this was him never working on Fallout again

The Courier is pretty shit at his job though?

The Courier tracks down Benny, caps his ass, and gets the chip back. Sounds pretty good to me.
>>
>>730704620
He lost his old identity to the Legion, he kept trying to find something new to leave it for but every time he either ruined it himself, or it was ruined for him. He was a patriot with nothing to be patriotic for.

fully agree with him.
What's the point of being a post apocalyptic setting if you're just going to take it away afterwards?
It'd be like if you set a story in an analogue for pre-industrial east Asian countries like Tibet, China, and Japan, but then in the sequel series, skip forward 70 years, and now it's 1920s New York suddenly.
>>
>>730706804
That would have been more kino then some grudge I don't understand why he has
>>
>>730705486
Btw this screencap is why the Independent ending is the best ending. It's what every theme in the game is pointing to, the game is screaming at you to go that way. Only retards argue about whether NCR or Legion or House is better.

>What's the point of being a post apocalyptic setting if you're just going to take it away afterwards?
Because that's how society logically develops, if you don't like it, play another wasteland game. This is FALLOUT, it's not Wasteland, it's not some other post-apocalyptic game. It has its own identity.
>>
>>730708815
because fuck you, more post-post apocalyptic wild west shit would be cool
>>
>>730709062
Fallout is nothing without a wasteland, it's why people even pay attention to the series.
>>
>>730709285
I paid attention to it for the ancient 60's vibes and tongue and cheek humor. Feels pointless when it takes itself too seriously.
>>
>>730704620
He got a taste of semi decent civillization, then it collapsed from retarded circumstances and he was forced to see all the other shitty ass attempts at society that dont even come close
>>

Im confused is this about his tribe or America how would he even know about it

mate, Fallout 1 wasn't a post-post apocalypse either. This was a conscious choice going in to 2.
And why would I expect the series to move past it's decrepit survival days when the series is literally named Fallout.
Why not name it something else if it's not about the Fallout from the war, be it societal or physical.
That throughline from the war to where we are now should always be there for the large scale players. The Brotherhood of Steel are the emergent society from a deserted sector of the US military. The enclave is the government. The vaults have average US Citizens being toyed with in underground cages. But when you start basing the new players off of other new players, you just risk losing player interest. Anyone new to the series isn't going to be asking about how the ideologies of the NCR and the Brotherhood of Steel clash and how that war ravaged the land, they want to know about the massive nuclear war that decimated this once familiar world.
Like it or not, this is one thing Bethesda understands better than Obsidian and Black Isle ever did.

I really hate when people use "logic" to try and justify stupid story directions, as if it's not all up to the writers in the first place.

Nigger is angry because toilet pipe blender has hit the Market and Marine Fleets wouldn't reach Docks anymore.

My Brother. What a disastrous Thing to think of, you know - loose Feces, Diarrhea are Things that come and go but a permanent loss of all of the tasty Brown Sausages, this might be something I would call a Acoprocalypse. Shit-sucking Niggers are at Danger. If crook legged or Retard faced or eyes stuffed with Cotton or whatever Turds are tortured with, without Shit, there are no Niggers and that's a Fact. Niggers are Shit, grind them and their Kids to Bone and Hair but let full Logs pass the Toilet.

Its about the Divide
>>
>>730710482
I gleaned that from all his complaining about me delivering a bomb or something but like why the fuck was this never mentioned that we just accidentally blew up an area
There's no lore buildup no mention of it anywhere
>>
>>730710571
Lonesome Road adds concrete backstory to the courier, people complain about fallout 4 rp but prior to new vegas your character WAS a courier who toured through california and then helped build a settlement in the Divide and then destroy it
>>
Who the fuck blames a courier for delivering a package?
>>
>>730704620
bro literally looks like a gorilla lmao

>>730711129
Who had him deliver detonation codes?

NCR

>Ooh Courier you're so guilty, bull and bear bull and bear
>I'll never get to the point bull and bear

Listening to this faggot is what made me decide it was time to stop playing NV.
>>
>>730711129
A man who needs someone, anyone to blame. The player is Ulysses scapegoat, who he projects all his anger at the world onto.
>>
>>730711902
What the fuck is his problem?

He's had everything he knew and loved destroyed not once but twice. It's understandable that he's pissed. He's basically had a full mental breakdown and gone full schizo thinking you're some kind of demon who's personally responsible for everything bad that's ever happened to him. The DLC even brings up the distinct possibility that you're not even the Courier who actually delivered the detonation codes, and that Ulysses in his need for a "villain" latched on to the first person he found that he couldn't prove "wasn't" the person who delivered that package.

>change is bad and we can never have it, everything must remain cosy post bomb drop that my Don’t Steal OC will fix before it gets fucked up again in the next one
>>
>>730708815
that was a stupid fucking analogy
>>
>>730711667
What makes it worse is you never even see this guy until the end of the quest and it's basically empty as fuck
I get it's called lonesome road but they didn't need to be so literal
>>
>>730708961
That is his grudge. Courier Six may have, accidentally, destroyed the place he could've called home and been patriotic for in place of the Legion identity forced on him. He's angry about it, trying to find a reason for it, and projects his directionless patriotism everywhere he can because it's all he has.

>contrarian character to challenge player's choices and make them think.
>this is bad for some reason
Seems kind of simple. you know you can just skip his dialogue if you don't care about thinking in that way or just want the loot. if there's any real criticism it would be tying what dialogue he gives to the reputation system instead of quest markers and story completion.
