If I was in the Fallout universe, I would make myself into a ghoul the moment the words "I'm getting too old for this shit" unironically passed my lips.

So yeah, I'd take ghoulification.

In a game, sure that might be kind of neat. In real life if something like this could happen after a nuclear apocolypse, no I don't want to be a walking corpse. I'd rather be a cyborg or something neat like that in Fallout anyhow.

Easy choice, I'd be a ghoul. It'd be a tough life alright but death is so final, whereas life is full of possibilities.

I always wished for a feature to become a ghoul in the games, but alas there never was one. Hopefully in Fallout 4 it will be possible.
But if it was real life the choice would still be a lot harder, but still life wins over death.

Actually, that is one of the thing I wish they would take from the Elder Scrolls series: The ability to chose a race. I was thinking:

Surface Dweller: Defaul, nothing to special
Vault Dweller: Increased gun ability, and knowledge, but less resistant to rads
Ghoul: Immune to rad, which also heal you, but reduced strength, eyesight, and some people will instantly attack you on sight
Metahumans (AKA Brutes): Insane strenght, increased heavy weapon skill, but decreased intellegance, and some people will attack on sight.

Did I miss anyone?

Also, maybe have the riding system from Elder Scrolls. Maybe we could all ride on Bhramin.

*crosses fingers and hopes Bethesda sees this post*

Yeah I always thought something like that would be cool, but the ability for any 'race' to become a ghoul during the game would be sweet.
Also, wouldn't the surface dweller be better with a gun than a vault dweller have spent their life fighting off radiated creatures as opposed to the sheltered safe life of a vault dweller?

Although one of the good parts of the Fallout games (The numbered ones anyway) was that you were isolated from the world, in a vault or in a tribe, and you would be exploring the world for the first time. Picking races might mess that sense of exploration up like they did in New Vegas.

The only time I wandered into a highly radioactive area in Fallout 3, I did so specifically BECAUSE I wanted to become a Ghoul. Most disappointing death ever.

They're life-span is drastically increased isn't it? Yeah sure, I wouldn't mind being a walking corpse in a suit. Heck I could gather all the necrophiliacs and make my own Harem!!!

Live for several hundred years and end up as a tree? Of course I'm going ghoul!
(I joke. You don't turn into a Ghoul from FEV, that's crazy talk).

But seriously, I wouldn't mind the disfigurement in exchange for the extended life. And if I turn feral... I hope I take some NCR pigs with me before they take me down!

Of course I would. I'd rather live for hundreds of years and be ugly than die. Also have you seen them dance?
It's the long life that made me chose yes initially but watching that ghoul dance clinched it for me. I'm going ghoul!

I'm surprised that becoming a ghoul hasn't been an option yet. They should really think about adding that to the next one. I'm sure it would be a decent selling point.

If I can be like Jason Bright, then sure, I'll become one. Lifespan of centuries, waves of radiation I can unleash from my glowing body, and have you seen the goulettes?
