What's worse than spending the better part of a week sitting in a doctor's office unconscious and mostly nude? Having the doctor calmly talk about "rootin' around in yer noggin" while his head slides down onto the front of his torso, Shou Tucker style.

That scene is all the more weird with body mods installed; your character is sat there in the buff while amateur head-shrink works his voodoo.
They set up your Tag! skills, but seeing as he immediately lets you change them and then you get another chance when you leave the town boundary it's all a bit pointless.InterAirplay said:
That one is the most horrible bug I've seen ever. Scary too. I mean, if it happened to me, i didn't even know at the start if it was meant to be that way.
I don't know if it is just me, but I notice the NPC bobs their head in a specific way. Depending who you are talking to would make it look awkward to appealing.
i really hate the start of new vegas, in the other games the reason you didnt know anything about the outside world was that you had lived your entire life in a isolated community and all you knew about the outside had been told and retold so many times and to so many people that the information that remained was nothing but a fairy tale, and the combat system, map and information all relies on your pip boy which was either standard issue given out to most residents or a piece of ancient technology passed down trough generations.
in new vegas you have amnesia and some dude just gives you, a complete stranger, this piece of advanced technology for no reason, and thats just the tip of the iceberg of poor writing in this game, i agree that fallout 3 had a ton of problems with its story, but new vegas makes it look like fallout 2.

EDIT, I misread someone's post which I replied to so I'm only having the second half of the post I had here:
But seriously, Fallout 2 if you actually think about it, it's beginning is even stranger than Fallout 3 or Fallout New Vegas. I mean, in Fallout 2 the fact that it was only like 80 years after fallout 1 and you're a descendant of someone who was born in the vault and has tons of experience with dealing the wasteland and yet the tribe you're born into is so pathetic with its lack of science and engineering ability. No wait, Fallout 2 can make sense only if you think that in Fallout one your character had an intelligence of like 1 but maybe a charisma score of 10.

That wasn't my point. My point that in JRPGs stealing often has no penalties. That is all. I wasn't saying anything about JRPGS actually being good games.Straying Bullet said:
