Fallout: Better OP Edition
It has been a nearly a decade since the release of New Vegas. It is time we bury the hatchet and have a clear answer on who won in New Vegas.
Here's some questions to help the thread.
>If the men came into the room and engaged in a war of ideologies, which one would come out as the victor?
>If the primary leaders came into a fight with each other, who would win?
No.
Topics that go far from the thread's purpose will need to go head onto another thread/board.
Fallout General can be here.

The only really reasonable option. The only reason these factions come out in top as in NV is because of the Courier, so this is why he should be able to take the reins. He solos everyone listed.

NCR was shit, Legion might have been cool if they weren't technophobes, Yes Man is a shittier house end as once the Courier dies New Vegas ends up being run by an AI cooked up by a random follower of the apocalypse. House kinda wins by default even if there was a lot wrong with him.

BoS are just a bunch of losers who took a good idea, that being "preserve information and technology so we don't lose it in the apocalypse", and turned it into something hillariously retarded.

Despite the endings not alluding to it, it's heavily implied that Yes Man is a rogue AI who takes control of Vegas. Furthermore, if you destroy the Fortification Hill facility and the robots in it and then go back to Yes Man, he will sound really angry/frustrated about what you did but trying to pass it as a good thing because he's Yes Man. He really wanted that robot army, so he's not just a thoughtless robot doing everything you say because you ask it to, he's the wildcard playing it off as helping Benny/You so he can take over in the end, since he's really the one controlling the Securitrons.

Realistically speaking nobody is as competent as the courier. Think of how many times you actually die. No way in fucking hell will somebody even b able to get to the stage of killing Benny let alone being notice by Ceaser and actually letting you casually give you authority over the fate of the chip. Ceaser allowing you to just walk your ass in by yourself in the bunker is fucking bullshit and the weakest part of the story. Realistically Ceaser would have taken the chip, sent a squad of legion soldier to nuke the place, not you.

That's not implied at all. Especially given, from what I understand, the devs explicitly clarified this.
it's just people taking a single line massively out of context and overblowing it as far as they possibly can.
Still better than the NCR or Caesar's Legion, though. Hell, still beats House, you ask me, as he's a crazed faggot obsessed with his stupid casinos.
Yesman doesn't like it when you do stupid things, but, that doesn't mean he doesn't follow your desires. I'd point to the BoS as the most obvious example of this. He really, really dislikes leaving them alive, for obvious reasons, but'll still do nothing about it, even though it's the most retarded action you could possibly take.

Seriously though the BoS is basically a fraternal organisation exists in a constant state of war with basically all post-war civilisations, and can't meaningfully coexist with anyone because of their sole founding purpose put them at odds with anyone who doesn't recognise their absolute hegemony over technology. The only reason that Bos isn't shown taking a more active offensive posture against Mr. House is that they blew their wad against the NCR, and also don't seem to be fully aware of Mr. House's resources and capabilities.

An issue I have with NV is hoe it can be inconsistent. If you have a band of Legion following you for instance, if you manage to get away from them and get back to Caeser he'll pretend as if nothing has happened even though in a realistic scenario he would just attsck the courier at his base and entrap him.
It's just one of the things that irks about me fallout and good rpgs. Though, It can be passable given the scope of rpgs as this and the time allowed to make it(in this case a year).

I have big problem with the way Tribals are depicted in the Fallout games in general, even that they exist at all really, but if you take it for what it is, Caesar's approach makes sense.

Hey, you. I know you lurk this thread. Yes, you, the fucker who can't go one week without a new vegas thread on /v/. The poor asshole who has to pretend he hasn't played in a while and needs a list of recommended mods. Who the fuck do you think you're fooling?
You can't just like the game and leave it at that, no, you have to turn this into a fucking statement. You don't like New Vegas for what it is, but for what it's up against. That's why you're here, in this thread, that's why you probably already posted two or three times, acting smug at Todd, proclaiming how much you despise nuFallout. Which is all well and good, but you'll still play New Vegas, post in the hypocritical "r-recommended New Vegas mods guise ?" thread, or even be its OP.
Don't fool yourself. New Vegas is an unfinished, badly designed piece of shit and you know it. With the time you've invested in it, you could be blind and you'd still see the huge amounts of empty padding any other game would be crucified for. New Vegas isn't good. You just hold it on a pedestal because it's the only way you can indulge in the bethesdashit you claim to hate and still think you're the more distinguished consumer.
Keep believing that, you stupid shit. Todd has you. He owns your soul with his gamebryo garbage. You think you don't just because it has Chris Avelonne writing on it? If Avelonne made a difference, you would have played once, nodded, and moved the fuck on. But you're still playing and endlessly shilling the game close to a decade later. You're a fucking Bethesdadrone in denial. You can pretend otherwise, but I know. Keep running if you want, being a mindless cultist praying to your Big Iron gods. I know you love Todd like you love Big Brother, and only a veneer of irony can make you live with yourself.

I think the people that are pro-legion and some of us are probably just looking at the faction on a surface level. They have Roman Aesthetics. Considering Romans were the original fascists, it would make sense to side with them. When you actually consider what they actually are, it stops making sense though. They're basically a bunch of anarchist degenerates that also seek to have authority to justify their decadence.
The most fascist choice actually is Yes-man, since you can practically decide how the Mojave Desert is run. Therefore you can instate something good.

We're talking about the best option here, anon. Yes, Legion is the best of the existing factions. However, Yes-Man exists. If you were so inclined, you could do what the legion is doing but better. I think there's room for improvement.
I also haven't played the game in years. I just remember eventually thinking they were larpers and proto-anarchists. Seeing how I'm not the only one in the thread that thinks this, I do feel validated. Unless an upcoming playthrough changes my mind, I'll consider them the way I have so far.

It's a shame Mark just nuked the last thread and I'm too lazy to repeat myself, but the gist of it is that unless you extrapolate that there's also Caesar's Empire, which is a step above the Legion, Legion being just its military, it really is nonsensical. Slaves and the shit Legion doesn't make sense if it happens in their own territory, too. It does make sense if Legion is just the military and it's supposed to keep rolling West. Too bad the game wasn't finished and there's basically nothing indicating Caesar's Empire exists, save for "it makes sense for it to be".

Fact is, they've had a good massive pile of problems, retardations, and fuckups that made them impractical and largely incompetent.
But, damn it, I love those slightly crazy patriotic boys trying to rebuild the country. Even if their idea of that is 'kill pretty much everything because we were stuck undergood for a bit too long and got loopy'.
Was disappointed something along those lines never cropped up in 4, though. The main character being a former soldier actually from the pre-war era would've given him a solid in to exploit. But, of course, Bethesda isn't going to do anything interesting or cool, at the end of the day.

A bit unrelated, but I remember one bit of dialogue which I liked in that trainwreck of a game. At the wreck of the USS Constitution, you meet some robot who asks you for your ID. You have the option of telling him your name and stuff and the robot identifies you as a military veteran, salutes you, and gives you a free ticket to the museum. I dunno, kind of a small thing but I liked it, and that moment stuck with me despite forgetting mostly everything else about that game.
I agree that they could've at least mentioned the Enclave. Could have even been a faction. Technically, the Enclave weren't supposed to be present in the east coast but since Fallout 3 wrote that in, they could have rolled with it nonetheless.

The USS Constitution was probably the only good questline in 4, to be honest. Then again, I'm a massive sucker for robots.
Probably why the railroad pissed me off so much, funnily enough. I was the kind of guy who already risked their life for robots, as it was, and these preechy faggots're acting like there needs to be some kind of distinction.
That, and I guess the whole organization was full of general dicks whom basically begged for a bullet in the head.
If I recall correctly, the Enclave's power armor was present in the game. No idea if that meant they were, though, since they retconned a ton of lore. Still, from what I had understood, that set was supposed to be a post-war design.
>>16736513
And it's not like their motivations have been consistent anyway. So, you're probably right, they could easily enough just write a sensible section in.
Though at this point, the group's supposedly pretty well wiped out.
Still, I know there was something, at least, in Chicago. Who knows, maybe we'll end up with a game there.

From my perspective, the only reason the NCR could be viewed as better is because they're a good inch from some sort of significant unrest resulting in a dramatic shift of government.
Way I see it, pretty soon they'll fall apart, probably with a coup, and that is practically guaranteed to result in something better than what they currently have.
Caesar's Legion is, despite what people say, I think far more stable.
Even without Caesar, I think it'd still end up decently held together, so you'd still be stuck with the same problem.
Less chance of any kind of significant uprising to change their system. Especially with how they tend to crack down on things. NCR has to at least pretend to be the 'good guys'.

If that wasn't a reason that Caesar groomed people like Vulpes for alongside the thought of him helping form a spy and infiltration network then Caesar created his empire with the intention of failing from the start if not securing a lineage of his own or a sound backup plan for if he dies.

Ceaser says that the Legion isn't meant to stand forever and ultimately the plan is for the Legion in its current form to disappear. He says that he wants to take over the NCR and by doing so the Legion and the NCR will idealistically and politically mix creating a somewhat middle ground that has the stability of the Legion and the not being a marching deathball like the NCR. Technically the cancer throws a massive wrench in the whole thing. And he probably wanted to avoid anything resembling a Republic and stick to pure Monarchy so there wouldnt be any political bickering

I get that he was making the Legion temporary but the idea of instilling a fierce loyalty and ensuring his lands are strict where it comes to law breakers and raiders, along with the thought of an already strong hierarchy system based majority on merit is not something I saw as temporary. He wanted to civilize the fierce and tribal appearance of the legion and turn them from appearing as raiders and slavers to the outside world to a more stable and welcoming nation. The middle ground to the mix of Legion and NCR sounds like it would become a parliamentary government with him as chancellor so the point of not having a council or senate or a proper lineage to advise him or succeed him again is dooming not only him but whatever comes afterwards by turning the Legion into a split of factions like Alexanders Macedon.

I think he also says its going to be a gradual over time generational thing. He doesn't expect the current tribals legionaries and NCR citizens to get along but over time their offspring to have more ground for unity. Don't know how much that will work in practice though.

>Legion is the best of the existing factions. However, Yes-Man exists. If you were so inclined, you could do what the legion is doing but better.
This is precisely the opposite of what Caesar desires. With Yes Man, supremacy is gainerd through using technology as opposed to Caesar's modus operandi of creating stronger men. This is why he dislikes House (and to a certain extent makes Caesar a hypocrite in relation to his personal auto-doc), since the overreliance of technology is what makes men weak. The aim of the Legion is not to make life easy, but to allow the strong to rise up and overcome any challenges that might be faced. Even Legate Lanius recognises this when talking to an enemy Courier:
>Hnh. My coming would have saved you, set your people free in ways they cannot see.
>War would have tested them. Broken the weak with its violence, yet allowing the strong to arise.
>Violence gave you that strength, awakened you - I can see it upon your face, where two bullets left their mark.
I think Caesar could be characterised an as Evolan

NCR are fucking Californians, Legioniggers are backwards tribe wreckers who torture and slaughter for fun, and with anarchy the whole region will devolve into tribal warfare till a dominant tribe emerges. House is the only man who can not only run the Mojave properly, but even make it thrive. He has worked harder than anyone else for his goals, and is the only man who can not only make the region survive, but thrive as well. If you choose NCR you're an urbanite faggot and you belong in the killing fields. If you choose Legion you're a sadistic edgelord. If you choose yesman you just want to watch the Mojave burn. If you choose House you're a man with a sense of decency and respect for the wisdom of elders, and have the sense to recognize a rightful dictator when he sees one. HEIL HOUSE

Too many of the important people in the Legion are personally loyal to Caesar, whoever brought up Alexander's diadochi had it right. This totally blunts the argument that Lanius is more dangerous, as long as Caesar is alive he's a threat to any civilized people near him. Just like his namesake his personal ambition trumps anything else, no matter how high his aims are. He's probably the Mojave's best bet but if you're standing on the principle that independence is valuable by itself, only a confedederation of the existing powers can accomplish that, and only House can achieve it. If you would prefer that person to be yourself, Yes Man is the answer. NCR is the only outright incorrect choice, they lack the infrastructure and stability to pacify the region with any permanence. It goes without saying, but House and Yes Man routes are both pointless unless you can either unify the Mojave's existing powers, or more practically, bring them under some tentative suzerainty. Though I prefer Yes Man, House and Caesar are the best options. Unfortunately both have a lot of potential for failure. Like I said if you have a moral compunction against him, or you believe independence has inherent value, then House is the right call.

Overtime integration and acceptance means nothing. Just because Caesar is playing with the long game in mind, doesn't mean he has planned for the long game in mind.
Caesar and Graham were educated formally by the Follower's, yes. But over time those two had groomed many loyal men to follow, to lead, and to think. It's why the Legion became so large and organized.
If the Legion takes over Nevada, with the probability of Caesar living or dying, he has the whole of California to deal with, things change when you enter someone else's homeland. Occupation is not victory, and full on subjugation would take an overt amount of time when it comes to a nation the size of California as it is no simple backwater tribe. Remember Lanius orchestrated guerrilla attacks on the Legion and if he had the manpower he would be able to whittle away at his adversary. Caesar has left a large territory with most likely governors, or generals in charge of provinces and states. The beast of the east is moving west to assist the main Legion compliment and if Caesar dies would the territory in the east accept Lanius' full rule when/if he comes back from a bloody campaign? During Romes actual existence leadership all over the Roman Empire had been assassinated for less, who's to say that Legion territory hadn't learned from Caesar's rule and would place someone with a clear mind in charge? Who's to say Caesar's men wouldn't sack the capitol and try to usurp power similarly to how Rom had been sacked when the fighting force had been worked endlessly and had not been given what they were promised. Again it goes back to Alexanders' Macedon, or to better relate the event to the time after Julius Caesar's actual death and the rise of the second triumvirate with Octavian, Lepidus, and Antony.
Honestly considering the historical perspective Caesar is dying like Alexander, but he has groomed Vulpes. If a civil war in the Legion did happen Lanius would come out defeated and Vulpes being the closest thing to Augustus would win. Lanius has fear at his back, Vulpes has the loyalty of Caesar's troops and commanders.

Cæsar's "disdain" of technology is two-fold. He doesn't wnt his legionaries reliant on it in a fight which makes sense in a setting where poorly maintained weapons and ammo shortages is prevalent, yet he doesn't stop them from actually using it in a fight. The other side of it is his understanding of how the nuclear apocolypse started in the first place. The NCR is just a re-threading of the US government which in the fallout universe was party to destroying the world with it's nuclear weapons. Leading the world down that path again will lead to the same outcome, but will probably kill off what little there is left of humanity once and for all.

>comparing House to Ryan
House has no ideology beyond "if society is more advanced than people chucking spears then it will be more prosperous and therefore I will have more money". House cannot be called a hypocrite because he doesn't have a professed great belief that he ultimately goes against; he is a businessman, and everything he does is in the interests of his business, not for some greater good. Mind you, I am not saying that he is a kike, just that his interests just so happen to seem idealistic and even humanitarian when really he just wants the Mojave to stop being a shithole so he can get more power and money. Turning against the NCR in the end is just common sense if you know anything about how the NCR really works, being a passive aggressive psuedo-American expansionist bully. Your comparison is stupid.
And I honestly can't blame Ryan for turning against his own ideals because Rapture, which was doing good so far, was fucked up by a New York kike and his superpower crack, and desperate actions were necessary for damage control.

It is when you connect it to a work which rips off christian symbolism as readily as it does anything else to sell paintable minis because your eyes can't look at anything but the over sized pauldrons. With said Space Marines being literal brainwashed religious fanatics that serve as angels of death and vengeance as much as they do near suicidal shocktrooper supermen. The BoS are just a bunch of dudes who are power hungry and most of the shit they spout is just something they like to use as an excuse to look down on others, the normal guys in the power armor included.

40k Spacemarines aren't anything like the BoS's version of knights, though. Hell, 40k spacemarines aren't really 'medieval knights' as much as zealous crusaders, when it comes right down to it. But, regardless, with the BoS it's mostly just ranks, whereas with space marines, they're far more in to the whole 'warrior monk' type of deal.
Honestly, I'm just well and truly sick of every single time powerarmor gets mentioned, 40k faggots being all 'ITS JUST A CLONE'.
It's rather cancerous. And, frankly, it seems to be primarily from people who don't even know that much about 40k, outside of what they've seen skimming the internet.

It's not about ideology, it's about attitude - both Ryan and House are clearly the rulers of their respective little kingdoms despite their protestations to the contrary and will not be sidelined by an up-and-comer without a bullet in the head. Ryan talking about "muh markets" and "muh parasites" while having men tortured to death because he fears no longer being the de facto king of Rapture tracks quite well with House talking about "rebuilding humanity" and his other superficially benevolent plans while having you murder anyone who might pose a threat to his rule.

The difference here is that power armor has only changed marginally since Heinlein conceived it; it was basically born fully developed. If you want to dissemble you'd be better off bitching that Heinlein was just ripping off Achilles' magic armor from the Illiad.

That's wrong since 40K space marines are directly inspired by medieval knight armors, all that purity seal shit? And mace and sword and shield? Straight outta medieval. And yeah, crusaders are medieval knights, come on.

They are all zealous crusaders, they're brainwashed specifically to be loyal to the emperor, each chapter even having their own modifications to the tech to enforce their own customs. If they're not brainwashed to be that way they go rogue or become traitors very quickly. BoS are just descendents of pre-War soldiers who decided to take things into their own hands.

That doesn't prevent it from being associated to space marines.
For example, any time a laser sword appears in a movie there's almost always a reference to Star Wars. That's because they invented, or atleast codified, the idea of the laser sword.
Even if it's something like a spy movie and the "sword" is just a laser cutter, there's usually some sort of reference to it.

In reality, any kind of portable nuclear reactor (apart from some shitty Plutonium-238 rtg would need way too much shielding for its power output to ever be useful in even a large tank. And don't get me started on the contamination caused by one nuclear powered car blowing up, it would be a small Chernobyl every time spewing kilocuries of strontium, caesium and iodine everywhere, killing every poor fuck who happened to breathe in the general vicinity while Jimmy Jimson Junior wrapped his Corvega sedan around a tree.

It's more due to power armor being still fairly experimental and only being rolled out right at the end of the war with the t-51b being the most advanced tech produced. The invention of the microfusion cell which allowed for power armor to exist came about after the war had already started and by then it was too late to mass produce microfusion cell based military vehicles though apparently cars that ran on them had just started coming out and if the war happened a few years later that invention would have prevented the war entirely.

In Fallout 1 there is no reason to actually support the Khans or the Master. The only difficult choice comes from choosing Gizmo or Killian, and whether or not to save Necropolis. Fallout 2 isn't much better, in fact I can't even recall a choice that's really difficult to make at all. Fallout Tactics is almost pure combat focus with a binary ending. Fallout 3 is cartoonishly retarded allowing you to be either a mustachio twirling villain or a living saint and there is really no case to be made for the Enclave or Tenpenny (with the notable exception of Ashur's faction in The Pitt). Fallout 4 allows more options as you become either good, sarcastically good, sadistically good, or retardedly evil. The entire concept of synths and the fundamental problem surrounding them has already been done (and done better) by the Super Mutants and the Ghouls.
Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics are fine games, but they are fairly straightforward and the only real variation to be gotten is from rebuilding your character, not in following a different end goal. This works for the plot of all three games as you are fighting for a pre-determined home. New Vegas offers you four different homes. 3 and 4 are tainted by Pagliarulo's idiocy.

I think you misunderstood. The comment was directed at faggots that want to pretend only Legion/House/NCR are legitimate options and that Yes Man is anarchy or Yes Man doing something that has already been refuted multiple times. There is nothing stopping the Courier from ruling the Mojave and quite a bit of quests to set up a stable rule prior to completing the game. So why be so salty that some anons aren't cuckholds that drink the jizz of some already established leader?

The problem is the Yes Man is determined by the Courier and the Courier is an unreliable, that is, we can't really fucking say what he is. You could say he is a saint and only wishes good upon everyone and is the most competent person in the galaxy but at the same time he could a Fiend tier degenerate that goes on a drug induced slaughter trip. Yes Man isn't a real option not because its the anarchy option, but because its the everything cop out option.
Unlike Skyrim, for instance, there is no default Courier like in Skyrim the default Dragonborn is a black-haired blue-eyed Nord that does all the goodguy shit and most likely joins the Stormcloaks.
The closest default Courier seems to be the House route seeing and the main quest most naturally draws you towards him but at no point does the game or advertising try to give you some sort of persona.

But that's fucking wrong. You're talking about the start of the game. This thread is about the best ending to the game - all of which are achieved almost single-handedly by the courier, who has to show resourcefulness in surviving the wasteland, the initiative to track down Benny and retrieve the chip, the diplomacy to unite the tribes, etc. That's the courier we're talking about, not the postman who was shot in the head five minutes ago.

Not because its complicated you stupid nigger. But because its everything at the same time which practically makes it fucking null.
If we assume the courier is a realistic human than he most likely doesnt even make it to Freeside. The courier does NOT have a concrete ideology, the player makes it up, and there are countless playthroughs which is countless universes where the courier is different. Its a fucking pointless discussion, its a retarded brainfart of a argument like its kindergarten brats playing with their action figures and one goes "i use laser and destroy you" and the second one goes "nuh-uh, i active my super shield and kill you instead" and the first retorts by saying "wow go fucking kill yourself you faggot nigger, you can't do that gay shit, I fucking killed you" then they start fighting and then the caretaker comes in and /ss/ both of them as punishment.

*isn't in the control of the player
The courier is roleplayed doing what the player wants the Courier to do. The end of the game shouldn't force a characterization on the player's character. If I roleplay a Courier that usurps House's power, kills Legion and NCR wherever I find them, and has befriended every other faction why wouldn't my Courier be in a position to rule the Mojave with an unstoppable army of robots? Why wouldn't he be willing to? Why would I be forced to accept some lazy writing that forces my character to walk off into the sunset?
That Yes Man facilitates a way to win the game regardless of who you piss off amongst the main factions does not matter. It doesn't make it an inferior choice, because all the other factions are shit and lack enough options to be worthwhile. Why can't I take over the Legion? After killing both Caesar and his retarded successor and enough legionaries I am sure the survivors would be willing to serve my character. Why not? To take agency away from the player. Not being able to take over the NCR makes sense as it would just collapse under such methods.
Yes Man is effectively the route to take over House's "faction" and highlights not the stupidity of players needing a loophole to beat the game that they made unwinnable, but how the other factions remove options in dealing with them. Yes Man is the only way to get an ending that isn't "you helped faction A, B, or C and then were irrelevant again, the end."

Choosing House, Legion or NCR are only one option, because you become just another pawn for those factions. Choosing your own character has potentially unlimited options. Pretending like there is only one option to it is as stupid as pretending like you got to be nice to the doctor that saved your life when you can in fact wake up, rob him blind, and then kill him. That isn't a bad way to play the game. It is just playing a murderous character. So why is it a bad way to play the game to be out for yourself and not becoming a pawn for some other faction?

You seem agitated.
Anyway, the fundamental point is that we already know a lot about the courier by the end of the game simply through the actions he took to achieve the Yes Man ending. The rest is speculation, but the entire discussion is an exercise in speculation. Unfortunately the added nuance involved in speculating about the Yes Man ending due to the fact that you role-play as the person who takes over in that scenario seems to be too much for you.

No we fucking don't. We only know the basic outline of every main route and that he killed and took over House and won at Hoover Dam. That literally it, in no way does this inform us what kind of person the courier would be.
I feel like I'm arguing with cuckchan refugees with how utterly incapable you are of comprehending that comparison between infinite different shit is pointless.
Ok, I settle on this. The courier is a fucking faggot and kill absolutely everyone and commands Yes Man to slaughter anyone that come into the Mojave and set out to slaughter anyone outside as far as they can reach. There, Yes Man is the worst fucking option and anyone who picks it is a literal retard.
Of course I would get upset, I'm facing a stupid person on the internet.

So you are saying that the player doesn't know how the character they played will act? You are the one that is dense, nigger. You are acting like the Courier's characterization is set in stone. The Courier's name, sex, appearance, and personality are up to the player. How the Courier would act in any given situation is up to the player including what the Courier would do with Yes Man. As far as the other factions being "concrete" that just shows what a lemming you are and how scared you are out of the comfort zone of being a follower. A player that would choose to be the boss and not take shit from pseudo-intellectuals like House or Caesar scares you. It reminds you subconciously of how unoriginal you are. You need the comfort zone of officialism.

I get it. Your retarded argument is that "we don't know who the courier is" when the courier whoever the current player decides. You just don't like that because it removes your ability to pigeonhole the Courier's future actions in the Yes Man ending. You know what you are getting when you bitch out to the Legion, NCR, or House, but you can't say the same thing about the Yes Man ending because such an ending is truly free. You don't even really get to shit on it for supporting disagreeable politics, because it can have any kind of politics plugged into it based on what type of character a given player's Courier is played to be. The Yes Man ending is definitively the best ending unless you are roleplaying Caesar's bitch, NCR's bitch, or House's bitch.

Yes, thus we refer to what would major factions do. "But what if Courier took NCR over and turned it into national socialist paradise" is a possible scenario there as well, but it's totally reliant on who the courier is; but if he sides with NCR, we don't have to know anything about him to assume what NCR would do after winning at the Hoover Dam.

What man the players decides that he is. How is it that fucking hard to understand? You also left out hundreds of side quests with various results that also determine what kind of character the Courier is based on how the player played him. That the Yes Man ending is different depending on which Courier was played to it does not make the Yes Man ending worse. It is still the best ending, because you, yes you the dumb nigger I am talking to, can choose for yourself what kind of Courier you played and what he does with that ending.

Listen, blackest gorilla nigger in the entire universe. This is cool for roleplaying, but it relies entirely on the player making up what happens to Vegas after the end, instead of any *estimations* based on what already is (like with House, NCR and Legion) for a barely established character, which means that in the case of Yes Man ending, you have to pull everything out of your ass. In contrast, in other endings you have factions that can act have established ways of operating and can be expected to do certain things, therefore making future developments based on what is actually established in the game, and not every player's individual guesswork.
Or, to put it differently: if you have to make a sequel to FNV, which ending gives you the best prospects without them sounding obviously contrived? The one where you have to guess everything about the ruler of the Mojave, or the one where you have that mostly undetermined previous player character *and* an established faction with goals and ideology?

Holy shit you mentally ill faggot. This isn't about discussing the merit of New Vegas as a roleplaying game or your ability to pick options. This is about analyzing what the game has presented to us and discerning the qualities of certain ESTABLISHED factions and ideologies. The Courier does NOT have any established character or path besides getting shot in the head and surviving and helping somebody take control of Hoover Dam.
We know what the Legion will do.
We know what the NCR will do.
We know what House will do.
All these are presented within the game as some established and known. We have no fucking clue what the Courier would within the context of canon. Until a new game comes out and confirms what kind of person the Courier is within official canon we canon determine what the fuck his effect would be and what he would do. Thus we cannot discuss him as a possibility beyond headcanon. You are literally trying to use your fanfiction as a stand in for a 4th option. Do you no realize how fucking pointless that in discussing the merit of each faction?
Its like saying "well, in my playthrough Ceaser suddenly decides that he loved Democracy and goes on his knees to apologize to the NCR and reforms the legion into a pacifist group that smokes pot all day".

Convenient way to exclude the best ending. The "qualities" of the established factions and ideologies have been talked about. Not everyone agrees that you need to suck on one faction's cock or another's.
>The Courier does NOT have any established character or path besides getting shot in the head and surviving and helping somebody take control of Hoover Dam.
Hence the roleplaying aspect of the game. It isn't established so that you can play the character that you want to play. Unfortunately for you such freedom is limited to picking from three different factions.

That's hilarious considering how much I btfo the anti-Yes Man position, but go on pretending like that doesn't matter. Keep pretending like who the Courier is needs to be validated when in a roleplaying game the Courier is who you decide he is. The pages aren't blank, they are just different for each player, which means you can't say the Yes Man route will end up bad if a player such as myself says it will end up good. You can't really shit on it in any way other than to cry that it isn't official enough. It makes sense that those who hate freedom would hate the most free ending in NV. The freedom of the Yes Man ending scares you.

You can't also say that the courier will end up good. Thus its a pointless fanfiction tier consideration.
Again, this isn't about the merit of the game as a roleplaying game, this is about the consistent factions within the world of Fallout.
Its a pointless exercise to compare 10 billion made up books to 3 other real books.

But thats part of the discussion. To determine what would happen given previously given information from within the game.
There is no such information on the Courier from within the game. We are trying to make an interpretation based on the original text. There is no information given about the Courier in the original text besides that he was a courier, got shot in the head and survived and then we jump all the way to the end to he helped someone or himself capture the dam.

Which means you want to limit it to the three factions instead of the possible outcome the player could choose with Yes Man. You are so brainwashed you don't even see how limited your thinking has become. I don't think any of the three factions are best for the Mojave and I do believe that my character would be a better leader for it. Someone else's may not, but I am not bound by their character nor does that fact invalidate my choice.

The developers put it as a option though. So it is intended to be put as a last-resort if need be and as the last option a player wouldn't normally pick, it's still there as a valid choice.
Caesar doesn't do that since it isn't an option in the game. If it was, then it'd be a valid choice as Yes Man is. He's whoever you argue. You can logically decide the questions that the Yes Man path puts forth and logistics.

HOLY SHIT YOU STUPID NIGGER FAGGOT
This is not about limiting. In fact the issue is broadness, so broad that it nullifies its worth of considering based around the topic of which would be best. For everything else you can make a proper interpretation. You cannot interpret something we have no knowledge on.
You are still completely fucking ignoring the fact that this isn't about the roleplaying of the game about making an interpretation of the Fallout world and determining what would be the best faction for the Mojave based upon the information given to IN THE GAME. IN THE FUCKING GAME. What kind of person the Courier is not information given to us from with-in the game.
Its not about it being a valid choice. This isn't about the fucking choice.
Fallout 4 is way down your fucking alley because clearly you only care about being able to do what the fuck you want but don't give a flying fuck about its tangibility upon the game world and its lore.
In fucking fact, Yes Man is the least role-play friendly route because its least determinable what kind of character your Courier is because what kind of person he is doesn't actually effect the outcome.
Think of this, to what can you narrow down the traits of your Courier based on which faction you chose? You do not understand the concept of a roleplaying game. You should be able to mold the character you are based upon your choices. Choosing an option that says nothing about your character and has no known effect upon the game world might as well not be a choice.
So go play Fallout 4 since that is way more suitable for you.

This entire thread and every NV thread is full of reasons why all three of those factions suck in one way or another. This is why Yes Man offends the faithful of those factions so much, because it can't be pinned down with retarded pre-baked flaws those factions come with. You can only allude to it being anarchy or Yes Man going rogue or the courier being too much of a player character to be defined. Though, If you want me to define what my character would do I will.
My character would create a dictatorship that rotates leadership every 25 years. Previous rulers can attempt to remain in power, but they must complete the initiation process as well. That process would require traveling the entire Mojave with no more than one companion solving problems as he encounters them (women are ineligible.) Final stop will be New Vegas where the candidate must win a death battle with the previous ruler in fair combat. If there is no previous ruler (or not one alive) they must instead defeat 10 deathclaws by alone.
As for government the various factions belonging to the Mojave (i.e. not the commiefornians or legionniggers) will either be protectorates that pay tribute to New Vegas or in regards to those in New Vegas absorbed into the New Vegas government under the supreme leader. Protectorates will be allowed to manage theirselves as long as such management does not go past their assigned borders. Protectorates will have to tribute 20% of what they produce to New Vegas as well as submitting all able bodied males for military service protecting the Mojave for no less than 5 years. Military members who complete service will be given 2500 chips at the casino of their choice and a lifetime discount on room and board anywhere within the Mojave. Military service will mainly be in a support role for the unbeatable robot army New Vegas will already command and mainly be purposed on training fit and responsible male citizenry to improve the Mojave.

Or in the case of Caesar's legion, I guess that's just straight-up slave.
Even if people ask you stupid questions, treating them like trash, especially when they have the accomplishments of The courier, is a terribly stupid idea, and amply demonstrates how none of the factions have any reliability in the long-term.
Any organization with that little self-control is absolutely doomed to failure. presumably, the only reason they were able to get that far with it, was because they were the biggest fish in the pond, and so could get away with treating everybody like shit.
Unfortunately for them, there's always other fish.

Their arguments weren't very good besides. In fact, far too often, I found them saying shit that was rather blatantly stupid, and their response was to insult me.
Needless to say, insults do not an argument make. Nor do they engage one with loyalty, friendship, or any other like.
reality is that every single one of them was an asshole who the moment you bother to critique, you were likely to get called off for daring to critique their clearly Superior intellect.
Maybe you are some kind of cuckold who doesn't care in the slightest for the most basic modicum of respect, and is perfectly fine with accepting that other people are far more intelligent than they are, but, for myself, I am not.

Alright, you faggots want the ultimate answer? Yes Man is the best ending, but first I must explain who the courier is.
The courier is actually the Vault Dweller from Fallout 1. After defeating the master and being cast out from the vault he found the Tardis easter egg event in the wastes and traveled to the future to see what impact his choices had made. He found a tribe that claimed to have descended from him, and maybe it did due to the complicated nature of time travel, so he decided he would help his descendants by finding the G.E.C.K. After wreaking the enclave and saving his village he then went further to see if the NCR really could rebuild civilization. Becoming a courier he travelled the wastes, learning how things had changed. Learning that war never changes. The NCR became the same cancer that destroyed the old world. It was then he decided to take the future into his own hands.
He sided with Yes Man and using his power and resources was able to track down the greys, which he had uncovered evidence of many times in his travels, and stole much of their advanced technology. Thanks to human ingenuity he was able to improve upon it and save mankind forever by becoming a god and learning the secrets of CHIM
Others were uplifted as gods themselves, so the courier would have others to share eternity with, but his wanderlust could never be slaked as everything was known. His life became endless boredom and misery. It was then he hatched a plan, to start over, see the world with fresh eyes, he would allow himself to die. But in time he would be reborn, a child after his own heart. He would be called Nerevar
That's why Yes Man is Canon Best Ending and canon courier name is Lorkhan
