Feeling better. Stomach doesn't hurt as much and I haven't thrown up since yesterday morning.

[Gasman]

Every Christmas Eve everyone in the family tree from three different families has a get together and gives gifts to each other. We usually get $20-$30 things, but tonight I got this.



Makes me happy since I can finally get a start on making my Empire army and stop using proxies.

The way this is phrased makes it sound like after Atom got you NV, you went and told your family how disappointed in them you were

Hard Core + Hard is the only way to go


Anything else is too easy

Everything about hardcore seems cool except losing companions permanently, since I went a little low on perception that might get me screwed. Might try it though. Is the difficulty really that low?

Companion dies? Just quick load and try again, or don't get into that fight

ED-E Fixes having shit perception for you, hardcore does three things I really like


1) Gives ammo weight, this is a pretty big limitation actually when you start carrying something like a minigun and 1000 rounds of 5mm ammo, you burn through that very very quick

2) Stimpacks do not stack and heal over time, no more of this pause then load your HP back to full and unpause shit

3) Water/Food/Sleep actually matter for something other than the "well rested" bonus and HP Recovery


The character I'm playing right now has low PER too, and 10 STR/END/LUK, really I don't need to perceive much when I'm super-sledging someone in the face. Starting was 9 STR, 9 END, 3 PER, 4 INT, 1 CHR, 6 AGL, 8 LUK, used a perk to raise luck to 9, and then used that luck to face rape the casinos for caps and get implants.
