AWKWARD ZOMBIE

My character has the Cherchez La Femme as well as the Black Widow perk. Seducing everyone you can gives one quite the advantage.

Also, a speech of 10+ helps.

I abstain from killing things unless I have to. Though, when I had low health in Fallout 3, I would just go to the common house in Megaton, use Mister Sandman, and then Cannibalism. It was the most attainable way to feast.

Cannibalism was so much more usefull in FO3 than in NV.
NV never really had me super low on health with no bed around, unlike in FO3.
I went for a Mr. Perfect run, finding some of those bobble heads was a real pain but being able to use everything and being great at it was so fun.
Shame you couldn't do that in NV.

I luckily saved frequently, so if I would die or do something I wish I could have done better, I simply went back to a save point to try to find the best resolution.

After playing Oblivion, where frequent saves are required, I got in the habit of doing so.

Cannibalism does become useful when in the White Glove Society, for the sake of them all actually being cannibals as well. It gives a couple of speech options.

If I recall only one is a cannibal and he tries to turn everybody into one.

You might be right. It has been quite a spell since I have played, actually.

Oh of course you can help him!

Good. Cannibals must look out for each other.

That is so uncouth.

I agree with BloodLynnx. Why waste a perfectly-good companion when you could just let them have the rancher's douchebag broodspawn? Veronica's freight train of a fist comes in handy.

Anybody else think it's unfair that you need a Speech skill of 66 to get into Vault 3 without fighting the Fiends or be doing a Khan drug run? I didn't think mindless junkies would be so difficult to trick that I'd have to become Bill Clinton to get in, when I could just slip them some chems. Or how there's hardly any Legion quests outside the main scenario; they could have had the option to become a Praetorian by sending you to the Deathclaw Promontory with nothing but a Ballistic Fist...

If you ask me, Obsidian missed out on a LOT of quest opportunities. I can point out a dozen locations in ten seconds that should have had a quest tied to them that weren't, and it's disappointing.

Thanks, Medic, now I want to make Bill Clinton a character
