@@IronEddie13 Bro's rooting for the faction that gets their best ending when they don't actually win 😂. Specifically using Barter 100 during Mr. House's ending is the best ending in Fallout: NV. The NCR avoids being overstretched, the 100 Barter dialogue with Lanius proves to him that the NCR cannot support itself in the Mojave. Having human soliders guarding caravans in a boiling desert is a lot less optimal than just using House's Sercuritons to guide troops through to the Legions more lucrative territory. Allowing House and NCR to join forces through House's Barter 100 is the best ending, and Hoover Dam runs more efficiently than ever under House's technical experience.

Unironically. Killing General Oliver gives NCR a brighter future as Colonel Hsu would likely take his spot. Oliver didn't care so much about diplomatic relations as Hsu did, and in New Vegas, diplomatic relations is everything. I could see a future where Hsu would be able to carve out an uneasy alliance with the Courier, or alternatively unite all of the surrounding factions and settlements against the Courier. The NCR's biggest foe is itself. Half of the leadership is plagued by severe incompetence with Oliver refusing to finish off the Legion, Moore actively ruining relations of other factions, Kimball rapidly annexing land that NCR cannot hold, and Crocket being useless.

If you don't expose Chief Hanlon, he'll become Redding's new Senator and be someone who will start the rise of the anti-hawkish movement in the NCR. He correctly states that people like Kimball and Oliver were too imperialistic to realize that their ways were going to leave the Republic open to revolution by the disgruntled people they rolled over.
@Qtoyghs
2 жыл бұрын
Colonel Hsu likely takes his spot regardless. The NCR's defeat at the dam proves that leaders like Hsu and Hanlon were right all along while the Crockers, Moores, Olivers, and Kimballs were all wrong. As Max Braddy said, the death of Oliver-especially at the hands of the Courier-would likely turn him into a martyr and galvanize the NCR into a nation that hates the person who now rules The Strip. Considering NCR citizens are nearly the entire profit base of The Strip, that would likely sour the relationship and drastically weaken an Independent New Vegas, all while the NCR regains its strength *and* has an axe to grind for when it reinvades the Mojave. I'd argue the NCR is better off if both Oliver and Kimball survive while the NCR is defeated. They'd return from the Mojave disgraced, lose their positions, and be replaced by more competent leaders-in fact, Chief Hanlon even becomes a senator in one of the possible endings.

Thing is, the Courier has built built towns. According to Ulysses. If it weren’t for the courier, settlements in the Divide wouldn’t have flourished. Only reason it didn’t was because the NCR wanted to use the divide as a way to bring in more troops and caravans into the Mojave, which made Caesar send in troops to intervene. And because the NCR used the Courier to deliver a package that ended up waking up the nukes in the Silos. So the NCR is just as capable of destroying towns just as much as they are building them. The courier was braving the harsh conditions of the divide to deliver to people living in the divide.

might have been worse. I'm a firm believer that strict restrictions lead to better games. Silent hill is my favorite example. They added the fog to hide the bad render distance, and it worked beautifully, game wouldn't have been nearly as scary without the fog effects. Maybe if they had more time, they would have overthought things, over planned things. I know they didn't have avalone, and its a big reason why, but they had plenty of time to make outer worlds, and that game was aggressively average at best.

@@VonDelacroix this is true sometimes. Has probably hurt more games than it's helped though. Fallout NV certainly had *a lot* of bugs. And a lot of cut content. The only thing that was in their favor is the game engine was already developed, but even with that, 18 months is a very short time to make all the content they did. Then they had to make a bunch of DLC instead of fix the bugs.

@@jacksonmanitoulinisland See, that's what I like about the Independent ending and why I only discuss it with others who realize this too. Everyone who has picked a team has cherry-picked quotes they think proves that their ending is better than Independent. Meanwhile, everyone who actually thought about the Independent ending has written at least one dissertation on their ideas for a kinder, more equitable society that avoids the mistakes of those who came before. After you show that you've thought about the challenges and have solutions, then they start saying stuff like "but but but you play as a mailman with brain damage" like being someone who has braved the worst the wasteland has to offer and survived an attempt on their life disqualifies you from being a competent leader. Oh, and the ending slide quotes. Like yeah, the initial stage of any revolution is bloody and the Followers get overwhelmed. That's why you use the Securitrons to establish peace again and use some profits from Vegas to fund the Followers' efforts. Yeah, NCR brass will want to come back for round two. That's why you do a bunch of quests for them. Establish yourself as someone who is truly dedicated to improving the lives of everyone else. Some people will defect immediately, others will see your results and join up later, and the rest won't think too highly of trying to conquer land held by people who just want to live peacefully. Personally, I think a loose coalition of independent settlements would be best. Most towns and tribes seem to think that war is bad, so getting them to agree to live peacefully with their neighbors wouldn't be too.

@@Ideabot_69 Honestly, if you analyze the geopolitics of New Vegas well enough, you could give dissertations on why every ending is good. While I don't think the Independent ending is at all better than House's vision of the future, I will agree that the vagueness of the ending can mean anything and everything, from utter chaos (which the independent ending slides suggest) to wasteland utopia under the Courier's -- and by extension the Yes Man and the Securitrons' -- watch. Regardless of whether or not the main factions have represented your ideologies, there is an ending waiting for you in the game. It's why I still consider New Vegas as a prominent example of how a game can provide a unique narrative experience in a way that films and books could never replicate. There aren't many places where you can find constant debates on what ending is the best while understanding that every ending is, in their own way, relatively perfect.

General Oliver Lee is one of the most laughable characters in New Vegas. Hell, the entirety of the NCR- with the exception of the Rangers, who are really Mojave natives to begin with -are a laughingstock. They clearly overstretched themselves, are woefully incompetent at handling the numerous problems present in the Mojave, and yet still have the utter _gall_ to pretend that they can hold the Dam and New Vegas. Not being able to ice every last one of them with all the forces I’ve collected by the end of the game is pretty disappointing after you have to have this ridiculous conversation with the General.

It came to a shitdown with Lee Oliver still mid-air, while I was punching him with the "Golden gloves", looking, to see if Mr. House saw where his gloves went. 😂 It was so funny. Even Mr. House threw down(😅) and got the last shots into a pile of Ncr Rangers that wound up at the gate. 5 plasma mines had sent them flying, Lee Oliver on his face, and me to undress and stack all to drugs South-East of New Reno. Oh, fuck. Cannibal Johnson.. That I forgot to remove the "Plan b: Retreat line" of mines.😅

You think throwing Oliver off the dam is good for the NCR, but not stopping their expansion at the Mojave? L take, the whole point of the NCR's incompetence is that they're stretched too thin and need to chill the hell out for a few decades since they're obviously not ready to secure more territory. Opening up Arizona, New Mexico and Utah to the NCR would be so much worse for them than the Mojave campaign. Ironically, a genuinely pro NCR move would be to side with House or Yes Man.
