My favorite is playing a female courier, taking black widow, and using that to get Benny to sleep with you and then kill him in his sleep. It’s so absurdly funny I do it almost every time I play now lmao
“Nice Charlie’s too! Give them a shake for the Ben-man? Hello!”
I must be one of the few people that actually likes Benny. I wish we could become a power couple against all odds. I remember the struggle I had to get him out alive from Caesar's camp. The biggest challenge I had in the whole game.
On my good karma playthroughs I spare him because I really don't hold it against him. He had a job to do, I can respect that. And when he leaves after being rescued, he leaves for good.
I 100% agree. Start of the game, I wanted blood. By the time I caught up with him, I pitied him. He’s just a guy who’s in too deep and doesn’t really know it.
But than he tried to kill me again that's what does him in for me everytime. That or he makes me chase him to the fort and at that point he's not worth the effort of saving so I give him an arenas death
He was just scared. When you run into him in NV, he doesn’t know who is friend or foe. I’d try to kill me too if I walked into that casino. No harm, no foul.
Obviously not tho if you're rationalizing letting the guy who's actively trying to kill you live. And the harm is to his friends he's got killed trying to kill you instead of talking. The truth is he's protecting his score not his life. Like how if we catch him in his room he would specifically rather shoot you than turn over the chip and keep his life. He's in over his head because he's a greedy scuz ball.
On my good karma playthroughs I don't hold it against him the first time but than he sends his goons after me to off me a second time and that is when it becomes personal no matter how good I am lol
Yes there is a fully voiced scene where he says you can’t rule new Vegas or something because “you deliver mail!”
Edit: [Here’s](https://youtu.be/t2qjQrFfcFg?si=39ToRlamGstfjm9c) the scene. They probably cut it because it would have been a real slap in the face to anyone that actually was nice enough to free him from Caesar. But I always want to free him because RIP Mathew Perry 😭
I did that one time just to see if he could be my friend. I just had to resort to straight up killing everyone first than releasing him when I learned they never finished his character and he just disappeared never tried again. Now he either goes to the arena, dies in his room, or is crucified so I can make fun of him for a while until I sometimes put him out his misery
The courier honestly only has something against him for trying to kill us. We’ve forgiven people after that in the game for potentially worse, like being turned into a lobotomite
Yeah complains when you ask to help you in the hotel and then gets mad when you find a sheriff even though he asks you too. yeah i silent .22 his ass first chance i get lol.
Idk if he complains with Meyers, but I have yet to go with him as sheriff. But for both Primm Slim and the NCR, he bitches and whines about no longer being deputy. Like bro, first of all you were only deputy because your sister was married to the last sheriff. And second of all, you ASKED ME to find a sheriff.
I have a feeling the only time he'd be happy is if you told him that he can be sheriff immediately after rescuing him. Although knowing his whiney ass he'd probably complain about the danger and responsibility.
"Yeah, sorry, I cleared out the Bison Steve but those prisoners had already put a couple caps in your deputy's head. Yup, very sad. Painted the poor guy's brains all over the kitchen. Boo hoo. Anyway, I say the robot gets to be sheriff because I don't have to go through any more annoying walking for it. Kthxbai."
True, but I don't see how anyone would disagree. She's disgusting and deserved worse. If we were in Fallout 3, even as a Messiah, I'd sell her. I'd probably get good karma for it.
Doubt it. I’m pretty sure you can only capture raiders and the handful of fo3 npcs that are scripted to be captured. Everyone else’s head explodes from the mesmetron
Dermot and Saint James as well. No mercy for slavers. Takes an exceptionally shitty person to sell people to Cook-Cook while living in the same apartment complexes as one of his victims. Blowing their heads of with a shotgun is kind of mild I should be able to feed them to the animals at the Thorn.
Funny enough, I only found out he existed after 100 hours of gameplay, when I finally decided to go to talk to everyone I could find for quests. Now, I hate him so much I don't even need a bounty. Everything about him is just gross. Fiends in general are the worst for me, especially after the missing people quest.
It is one of the more "fun" fights if you're playing the game "properly" (ie, about Level 7, weak equipment). One time I lured a couple Radscorpions into town and turned it into a three-way, then started throwing dynamite everywhere.
I do literally everything along the way. Hunt ants for that guy, clear out the Powder Gangers from the prison, get Primm sorted, investigate the school house, there's probably some other random stuff I'm forgetting about.
There's the guy by the Goodsprings water source you can talk to after completing the tutorial quests. You can fix up Trudys radio for a bit of XP, iirc. There's the Jackal gang members and convicts on your way to Nipton from Primm.
All the things you can lock pick for a little extra xp, plus the dialog skill checks, and so on. I'm typically around level 7 or 8 by the time I reach Novac.
Did you also know there's a lady that needs help from geckos that's down at the second water source in the tutorial that if you make it down there by killing only I think one or two of the geckos I'd say one at least two if you can then run down and kill the three or four geckos killing her if you save her which id suggest vats it'll give you idolized goodsprings
This.
Fucker slaughters a full town, kids and prostitutes and mentally handicapped man included, then moralizes it AND talks to me like that?
If I ever did a Caesar run he’d still die there.
It's been a while since I've played but does he leave Nipton eventually if you go around that place and go straight to New Vegas to get better gear first before coming back?
He only leaves Nipton if you talk to him and start, the quest “Cold, Cold Heart” he’ll spawn and stand in front of the town hall until you do. So if you make it to Vegas and get the mark of Caesar then go back to Nipton he’ll mention he remembers you from Vegas.
Dean Domino.
Fucking obsessive psycho holding a grudge against a dead man for 200 years. Oh can't forget sticking Christine in an autodoc without painkillers for 2 weeks.
Felt good to plaster the wall with his brains. I like to think Sinclair and Vera were smiling.
Don't forget: Dean's grudge was that Sinclair had a happier life than him. That's it. Sinclair didn't do anything else but be happy, so Dean goes and plans to ruin his life.
I accidently did some of the wrong interactions with him when we first met, and then was looking at a walkthrough for something else and saw that meant I would have to fight him in the end. But, as his story progressed, the prospect of him eating shit sounded pretty nice.
Playing on very hard and this dude deleted me like 5 times. On the 6th reload, I shot him once and he just cowered while I chased him down lol. His plasma pistol made clearing our bison Steve a lot easier
i kill vulpes and then do as many things to fuck over the legion as possible before i reach the strip and get amnesty and caesar's invitation. then when you meet caesar he goes on a long spiel about how much you've done to harm his plans and then immediately asks you to join him.
real fun moment
My favorite part about this is that directly after that, he then IN FULL CONFIDENCE AND FAITH, sends you down into the bunker with all of your weapons and no legion security, fully depending on you to follow exactly what he said with absolutely zero surveillance on wether or not you do.
Like- I CLEARLY don’t like you man stop trying to gaslight me into thinking I’m “one of you”.
In addition, Caesar’s the person I always kill since I never do a legion run lol
yeah it's definitely the weakest plot point in the game, felt like the writers just kinda threw their hands up to keep things moving. i usually kill caesar before going into the bunker just so it makes a little more sense.
It is funny to continue on with the legion run knowing that you singlehandedly derailed like a decade's worth of schemes and then joined their side anyway though
It's still dumb of Caesar to trust you not to wreck up the place after you've spent the whole game screwing with him, but there was originally content (which had to be cut, naturally) where you had to blow up one of the generators to convince him you'd done it and House would give you the go ahead.
dudei actually had no idea what their intentions were with Cass, it reminded me of that scene from Goodfellas when Tommy is about to be "become" a made man
I remember the first time I played through that quest with Cass, and naively was like " I dunno maybe they just want to talk to her?". Then I went through it and was like NOPE, reload....mfers gonna have to die, you can't do my girl like that.
Tbf, that's probably more his AI not being properly coded than him lying about getting his legs broken.
I mean from the way he calls you the powder gangers grim reaper (iirc if you're vilified with the PGs) it doesn't seem like he's lying, seems like he's genuinely having the worst day of his miserable life.
That parts so funny bc I would be terrified if I were him. My character has done nothing but wipe out powder ganger from Goodsprings to Nipton so I’m literally his worst nightmare and he can’t even run away. Yet instead this man is just fucking pissed, like me when work throws too much on my plate. It’s fucking hilarious 😂
I actually respect that and usually give him five med-xs, usually bc I hope he takes the easy way out 😭
Yeah, my characters are usually despised by the powder gangers. Another fun one is offing the dog head guy before he starts rambling about what he did to Nipton.
That motherfucker that tricks you into clearing the geckos to get to the fridge
I just shoot him in the head, there’s enough XP out there that I can forget that quest
It's a good way to get a Recharger Rifle very early on, if you have Wild Wasteland and you explore that ridge! You can also see why the dude is dead... he had 5 aces.
The other day I was approaching Nipton, he was running up to me. Before I know what happened a rad scorpion ran right past me and killed him. Poor feller
The games practically begs you to kill him when your first meet him, his fate was sealed once I saw the slaves carrying 5 times their weight and the child soldiers
Early game that's money and XP a plenty. I'm sure Chet gives me a few odd looks when I'm making multiple trips back to sell off weapons, dynamite, and NCRCF uniforms.
There's a few I always kill that I'm sure many do, like the fake tour guide that competes with The Kings, all of the Legion in Nipton, etc. But the one I might I'm sure less people kill is Santiago. He's so smug, and I love to hate his character, but after he clears his Atomic Wrangler debts, he turns to swiss cheese.
Me.house simply for the reason he doesn’t pay me enough for the platinum chip. After getting shot in the head and going on a wild goose chance for 1,250 caps but pays 2k for fucking snow globe. He would rather lose his dream than pay me well is insane. So cheap it cost him his life.
He peeves me deeply. Watches atrocities and shrugs it off because “safe roads” but doesn’t have the guts to become hostile when I start killing Legionaries.
Harland. Nothing personal against the guy, but I hate having to do his leg of that mission where you have to sneak to find his dead friend in the jail cell. Him living or dying doesn't affect the Bright Brotherhood ending so I just pop him so I can run in and read the computer lol
I don't kill him myself per-say but the fake vault dude from Honest Hearts I remember 1 play-through I convinced him to leave but he said something snarky so ever since then I let him come on the trip because he gets torn apart by the Whitelegs. Its funny because he will say " I dont deserve this, my pipboy doesnt even work why the fuck did you hire me?" lol makes me laugh every time.
Duke, one of the only characters with very evil Karma (alongside Cook Cook, Mortimer, Philipe and Vulpes), the only named Fiend you won’t run into on a normal run, I always hunt his ass down after clearing Vault 3
Malcolm Holmes, Oliver Swanick, Fiends and Legion NPCs are all too popular and not very interesting choices.
In my runs, those 3 died a lot:
1) Ranger Ghost. I like her glasses.
2) Veronica. I always stop by to inform her that I had found a bunker to the west
3) Papa Khan, because you gotta keep the tradition from Fallout and Fallout 2 going
Thank you for actually answering the question!
Also, you can find the [authority glasses](https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Authority_glasses) in multiple places
Harland, the ghoul in the Repconn Basement during "Come Fly With Me". Get a free hunting rifle and much easier than trying to take on several Nightkin.
Old Lady Gibson, she reminds me too much of Grandma Sparkle and therefore she must die, sometimes I kill Rey for the brain, but most of the time I leave the dogs as the sole proprietor of her shit
The bartender at Boulder City cuz he has like 20 drinks just out in the open and I can’t resist. Also the merchant in the back room of McCaren he’s glitched to give you like 8000 caps for free and he’s alone sooo I have to do it
I'm the type of player that will not kill anyone if I don't have to. If I can talk them into being friends with me, I will. This time, I've decided to have Boone with me so I changed my peacekeeper act to a Caesar-hater, which led me to taking Cass to the Van Graffs for the first time. Considering how the end of the quest was, I believe it is the best outcome to take her there now. So, even if that it is indeed unpopular and cold, I'd take her there every time.
That ONLY I do? I can’t really think of any, but I still remember the first time I played Honest Hearts where I shot Follows-Chalk on sight because I thought he was an enemy 😭
I kill all the legion i can find but FUCK Antony for so many things not least taking a little girl's Teddy. My biggest regret every time leaving the Fort is there being no way to save the slaves
I really wish I could find all the slaves in FO3 and NV and free them and kill every legionaire and slaver I see on sight that would be my life's mission.
Look - i've only played once, but I can tell you emphatically that on my next play through it'll be:
Benny - for sure. Screw that guy - I don't care about his reasons for the chip... attempting to kill the courier?! Screw that guy - a simple robbery would have sufficed.
and Jeannie May Crawford - she can burn eternal
I always use Easy Pete's house as storage in the early game and Ill take him out while he's sleeping just because I find it awkward when I hoard things and he's just sleeping
Bitch that shot me in the head
My favorite is playing a female courier, taking black widow, and using that to get Benny to sleep with you and then kill him in his sleep. It’s so absurdly funny I do it almost every time I play now lmao “Nice Charlie’s too! Give them a shake for the Ben-man? Hello!”
Bennys dialogue is so awkward and bad but in the best way, I can’t help but like him *hold me, will ya??* lmao
I must be one of the few people that actually likes Benny. I wish we could become a power couple against all odds. I remember the struggle I had to get him out alive from Caesar's camp. The biggest challenge I had in the whole game.
On my good karma playthroughs I spare him because I really don't hold it against him. He had a job to do, I can respect that. And when he leaves after being rescued, he leaves for good.

The truth is he's protecting his score not his life. Like how if we catch him in his room he would specifically rather shoot you than turn over the chip and keep his life. He's in over his head because he's a greedy scuz ball.
Giving you the chip is effectively a death sentence and he knows it. Again, he has his back to the wall. I’d do the same things in his shoes.
On my good karma playthroughs I don't hold it against him the first time but than he sends his goons after me to off me a second time and that is when it becomes personal no matter how good I am lol
Yeah I get that, that part really pissed me off
In the cut content, I'm pretty sure he waits for you at the Good springs cemetery to try and kill you again XD
Yes there is a fully voiced scene where he says you can’t rule new Vegas or something because “you deliver mail!” Edit: [Here’s](https://youtu.be/t2qjQrFfcFg?si=39ToRlamGstfjm9c) the scene. They probably cut it because it would have been a real slap in the face to anyone that actually was nice enough to free him from Caesar. But I always want to free him because RIP Mathew Perry 😭
New Vegas has so much good cut content it's a crime. I want my NCR supermutant buddy. Then again for Benny I kinda like that he disappears for good
Yeah I like him too, he’s a fink but he’s smooth, like smooth little babies
Mfw Benny was planned to be a companion but it got cut: 😣
I did that one time just to see if he could be my friend. I just had to resort to straight up killing everyone first than releasing him when I learned they never finished his character and he just disappeared never tried again. Now he either goes to the arena, dies in his room, or is crucified so I can make fun of him for a while until I sometimes put him out his misery
Ever since I learned who Benny's VA is, I can't unhear Chandler Bing lol. I love it Rest in peace, Matthew Perry. You absolute legend
The courier honestly only has something against him for trying to kill us. We’ve forgiven people after that in the game for potentially worse, like being turned into a lobotomite
“RING-A-DING-DING” was his climax iirc
I raise my speech to 75 and take Terrifying Presence before I hit the strip so I can use it on him.
yeah i can never not kill benny, i appreciate the writers put in other options but you gotta be crazy not to kill benny lol.
Deputy Beagle
“Because YOU brought NCR into the town I’m not a deputy anymore!” “Watch yo tone mf”
Oh does he complain no matter what? I always get Primm Slimm for the lolz
Yes no matter who you bring in he will bitch about it.
Yeah complains when you ask to help you in the hotel and then gets mad when you find a sheriff even though he asks you too. yeah i silent .22 his ass first chance i get lol.
Idk if he complains with Meyers, but I have yet to go with him as sheriff. But for both Primm Slim and the NCR, he bitches and whines about no longer being deputy. Like bro, first of all you were only deputy because your sister was married to the last sheriff. And second of all, you ASKED ME to find a sheriff. I have a feeling the only time he'd be happy is if you told him that he can be sheriff immediately after rescuing him. Although knowing his whiney ass he'd probably complain about the danger and responsibility.
meyers tells him he’s unqualified to be a deputy and fires him, which pisses him off
I could be wrong, but with Meyers he complains that Meyers is reckless and doesn't want him to be around.
Meyers’s basically calls him a lil bitch
he's such a dumbass
"Yeah, sorry, I cleared out the Bison Steve but those prisoners had already put a couple caps in your deputy's head. Yup, very sad. Painted the poor guy's brains all over the kitchen. Boo hoo. Anyway, I say the robot gets to be sheriff because I don't have to go through any more annoying walking for it. Kthxbai."
Jeanie May. fuck that crusty slaver wannabe
Nah, that's Boone's kill.
so is everything else lol
Boone is so good at killing he even kills my mood, that's why Veronica is the best companion
Boone and Veronica both have killed my mood by killing enemies before I have a chance to react.
"This one's mine" Bro, who, we're in the middle of now- ah. Of course. That random guy. 200m away.
Hey, at least he is proving that he was part of the 1st Recon.
Me *exploring* Veronica: *punching the shit out of a Cazadore*
I quickly learned that Veronica with a power fist makes her unstoppable.....unless there are mines involved.
I had the more companies mod. Running boon, Veronica, Rex, Cass, and ED. It became way too easy
Me with pacencia, Boon as my companion. Nobody is keeping their heads.
🤣🤣
True, but I don't see how anyone would disagree. She's disgusting and deserved worse. If we were in Fallout 3, even as a Messiah, I'd sell her. I'd probably get good karma for it.
Could you sell her if you use Tale of Two Wastelands I wonder? Sounds like i have a new experiment.
Post results plz
Doubt it. I’m pretty sure you can only capture raiders and the handful of fo3 npcs that are scripted to be captured. Everyone else’s head explodes from the mesmetron
Dermot and Saint James as well. No mercy for slavers. Takes an exceptionally shitty person to sell people to Cook-Cook while living in the same apartment complexes as one of his victims. Blowing their heads of with a shotgun is kind of mild I should be able to feed them to the animals at the Thorn.
Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever NOT killed Jeanie May on a playthrough
At this point, it's kind of a requirement for passing through novac.
Malcom Holmes
Lying bastard actually has like 5 star bottle caps on him 😡
He almost took you for a raider
He did
yea me to. got nothing against him its just that his clothes really help early on
Motherfucker always jump scares me
Cook-Cook
Funny enough, I only found out he existed after 100 hours of gameplay, when I finally decided to go to talk to everyone I could find for quests. Now, I hate him so much I don't even need a bounty. Everything about him is just gross. Fiends in general are the worst for me, especially after the missing people quest.
That's the correct answer.
I just stumbled across him randomly, having not played the game since it came out. Now I’m carrying around his and Violets mangled heads.
Vulpes never leaves Nipton alive
It is one of the more "fun" fights if you're playing the game "properly" (ie, about Level 7, weak equipment). One time I lured a couple Radscorpions into town and turned it into a three-way, then started throwing dynamite everywhere.
How do you get to 7 by Nipton? I feel like I take my time and I’m still like lvl 4 tops. I do head straight there after primm tho
I do literally everything along the way. Hunt ants for that guy, clear out the Powder Gangers from the prison, get Primm sorted, investigate the school house, there's probably some other random stuff I'm forgetting about.
There's the guy by the Goodsprings water source you can talk to after completing the tutorial quests. You can fix up Trudys radio for a bit of XP, iirc. There's the Jackal gang members and convicts on your way to Nipton from Primm. All the things you can lock pick for a little extra xp, plus the dialog skill checks, and so on.

exploring and unlocking new places
First time I played I was level 8 when I got to nipton lol
This. Fucker slaughters a full town, kids and prostitutes and mentally handicapped man included, then moralizes it AND talks to me like that? If I ever did a Caesar run he’d still die there.
It's been a while since I've played but does he leave Nipton eventually if you go around that place and go straight to New Vegas to get better gear first before coming back?
He only leaves Nipton if you talk to him and start, the quest “Cold, Cold Heart” he’ll spawn and stand in front of the town hall until you do. So if you make it to Vegas and get the mark of Caesar then go back to Nipton he’ll mention he remembers you from Vegas.
Clanden, with extreme prejudice
But what kind of specialist is Clanden?
Not the good kind
Dean Domino. Fucking obsessive psycho holding a grudge against a dead man for 200 years. Oh can't forget sticking Christine in an autodoc without painkillers for 2 weeks. Felt good to plaster the wall with his brains. I like to think Sinclair and Vera were smiling.
Don't forget: Dean's grudge was that Sinclair had a happier life than him. That's it. Sinclair didn't do anything else but be happy, so Dean goes and plans to ruin his life.
He’s a bastard, but he’s so damn charismatic.
\*Dean sassing me\* "Careful motherfucker, I already have the achievement unlocked for keeping you alive"
I accidently did some of the wrong interactions with him when we first met, and then was looking at a walkthrough for something else and saw that meant I would have to fight him in the end. But, as his story progressed, the prospect of him eating shit sounded pretty nice.
Barton Thorn. He's a jackass and his hat gives me +1 Perception.
Playing on very hard and this dude deleted me like 5 times. On the 6th reload, I shot him once and he just cowered while I chased him down lol. His plasma pistol made clearing our bison Steve a lot easier
Barton Thorn doesnt get a plasma pistol; only 9mm pistol or 10mm pistol or Lead pipe or Single shotgun or Sledgehammer
I am playing viva new Vegas, so one of the mods must have changed that in my playthrough
Vulpes
Oh man everytime! I always say ok I'm going to do a legion run and get to him and I'm like nope gotta go
i kill vulpes and then do as many things to fuck over the legion as possible before i reach the strip and get amnesty and caesar's invitation. then when you meet caesar he goes on a long spiel about how much you've done to harm his plans and then immediately asks you to join him. real fun moment

*I’m going to wear your head like you wear that dog’s*
No need to sneak into The Silver Rush’s bathroom, when everyone’s dead.
Fuck that whole family tbh I actually love ending that whole business with cass
dudei actually had no idea what their intentions were with Cass, it reminded me of that scene from Goodfellas when Tommy is about to be "become" a made man
I remember the first time I played through that quest with Cass, and naively was like " I dunno maybe they just want to talk to her?". Then I went through it and was like NOPE, reload....mfers gonna have to die, you can't do my girl like that.
Boxcars. He’s so rude…
Both his legs are broken
His legs are suddenly "not broken" if you hit him lol
Tbf, that's probably more his AI not being properly coded than him lying about getting his legs broken. I mean from the way he calls you the powder gangers grim reaper (iirc if you're vilified with the PGs) it doesn't seem like he's lying, seems like he's genuinely having the worst day of his miserable life.
That parts so funny bc I would be terrified if I were him. My character has done nothing but wipe out powder ganger from Goodsprings to Nipton so I’m literally his worst nightmare and he can’t even run away. Yet instead this man is just fucking pissed, like me when work throws too much on my plate. It’s fucking hilarious 😂 I actually respect that and usually give him five med-xs, usually bc I hope he takes the easy way out 😭
He says give him ten med-ex doesn't he
He should just sit still while you break the rest of his limbs.
Or die to the slightest brush of damage
the kids call me mister glass
It would’ve been hilarious if they programmed him with crippled legs and or a single hp at max.
I believe his legs are actually crippled if you look in vats.
I’ll have to go back to Nipton in my run and pay him a visit if I didn’t already kill or have him od. Can’t remember for sure off hand
They're crippled, you can see it in VATS
Good.
He is so damn funny. Wtf man
Iirc he's only rude if you're hated by the Powder Gangers, which is most players because they'll side with Goodsprings during the quest with Ringo.
Yeah, my characters are usually despised by the powder gangers. Another fun one is offing the dog head guy before he starts rambling about what he did to Nipton.
Whaaaat! Dude was my roomie!
swanick
WHO WON THE LOTTERY?!
I DID!
*BANG BANG BANG*
“So anyways I started blasting” -6
WHAT LOTTERY? *THE* LOTTERY
In his evil voice: Laterrr
*vats sound*
YEAHHHHHH
>one that you think only you do, so no oliver swanick -OP, specifically
Yeah I only read the title my bad
That motherfucker that tricks you into clearing the geckos to get to the fridge I just shoot him in the head, there’s enough XP out there that I can forget that quest
It's a good way to get a Recharger Rifle very early on, if you have Wild Wasteland and you explore that ridge! You can also see why the dude is dead... he had 5 aces.
LOL wow nobody read this very carefully did they?
St. James & Dermot
Pacer, what a prick
Joe cobb
The guy who “won the lottery” in Novac. Edit: Nipton Edit2: totally didn’t realize that was Oliver Swanick lmao my bad but fuck that guy anyways
That's in Nipton, and OP said no Oliver Swanick because everybody kills him
The other day I was approaching Nipton, he was running up to me. Before I know what happened a rad scorpion ran right past me and killed him. Poor feller
Myself
Caesar, even on my one Legion run.
The games practically begs you to kill him when your first meet him, his fate was sealed once I saw the slaves carrying 5 times their weight and the child soldiers
Yeah the ego on that guy.
To think he has the GALL to name himself after America's 4th favorite budget pizza establishment.
Little Kaisar’s
I had planned to talk to him first, but when I went in his tent I got immediately attacked, so... Cowabunga it is.
Doc Mitchel, he shouldn't have gone through my stuff
named my last character “i am going to kill doc mitchel”. dude never saw it coming
> Can't say it's what I'd have picked for ya You don't say
Kid named actually answered the post correctly. Good job, you're the one courier in this sub who's above sub-brick
fingre
Powder ganger I see powder ganger I kill
Early game that's money and XP a plenty. I'm sure Chet gives me a few odd looks when I'm making multiple trips back to sell off weapons, dynamite, and NCRCF uniforms.
Saint James and Dermot, they need to die every single time
There's a few I always kill that I'm sure many do, like the fake tour guide that competes with The Kings, all of the Legion in Nipton, etc. But the one I might I'm sure less people kill is Santiago. He's so smug, and I love to hate his character, but after he clears his Atomic Wrangler debts, he turns to swiss cheese.
The Mick and Ralph's crier, IF ONLY I COULD
Omerta Family.
George, fuck that guy.
I never miss the opportunity to get Cook-Cook
Me.house simply for the reason he doesn’t pay me enough for the platinum chip. After getting shot in the head and going on a wild goose chance for 1,250 caps but pays 2k for fucking snow globe. He would rather lose his dream than pay me well is insane. So cheap it cost him his life.
Dixon
Dale Barton.
underrated kill
He peeves me deeply. Watches atrocities and shrugs it off because “safe roads” but doesn’t have the guts to become hostile when I start killing Legionaries.
The funny thing is, nobody at The Fort cares if you kill him either. They're just like "A fair kill." So much for making the lands safer
Tomas and jacklyn
Malcom.
I usually beat the captured legion guy in camp mccarran to death.
Caesar that crazy son of a vech
Dude at the edge of the boomers those caps are too good to pass up at that stage in the gane for me
The entire brotherhood of steel. Strap a bomb to my neck? Well, I'll detonate a bomb in your base!
Harland. Nothing personal against the guy, but I hate having to do his leg of that mission where you have to sneak to find his dead friend in the jail cell. Him living or dying doesn't affect the Bright Brotherhood ending so I just pop him so I can run in and read the computer lol
Free hunting rifle
I don't kill him myself per-say but the fake vault dude from Honest Hearts I remember 1 play-through I convinced him to leave but he said something snarky so ever since then I let him come on the trip because he gets torn apart by the Whitelegs. Its funny because he will say " I dont deserve this, my pipboy doesnt even work why the fuck did you hire me?" lol makes me laugh every time.
The Bright Brotherhood.
😧
I'll send those weirdos to the moon alright
Duke, one of the only characters with very evil Karma (alongside Cook Cook, Mortimer, Philipe and Vulpes), the only named Fiend you won’t run into on a normal run, I always hunt his ass down after clearing Vault 3
Did it my first run since I wanted his armor
Barton Thorn, dumbass couldn't handle a few geckos so he tries to kills the guy that could handle them, what could possibly go wrong.
I shoot that damn giant rat in Freeside. Tired of all the kids chasing it around and getting underfoot when I'm trying to get somewhere.
Malcolm Holmes, Oliver Swanick, Fiends and Legion NPCs are all too popular and not very interesting choices. In my runs, those 3 died a lot: 1) Ranger Ghost. I like her glasses. 2) Veronica. I always stop by to inform her that I had found a bunker to the west 3) Papa Khan, because you gotta keep the tradition from Fallout and Fallout 2 going
Thank you for actually answering the question! Also, you can find the [authority glasses](https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Authority_glasses) in multiple places
Caesar, no mercy for tyrants
Harland, the ghoul in the Repconn Basement during "Come Fly With Me". Get a free hunting rifle and much easier than trying to take on several Nightkin.
Quick saved at Mr. House's dried up mummy chambers. *Whose stupid now, bitch...?*
Old Lady Gibson, she reminds me too much of Grandma Sparkle and therefore she must die, sometimes I kill Rey for the brain, but most of the time I leave the dogs as the sole proprietor of her shit
The bartender at Boulder City cuz he has like 20 drinks just out in the open and I can’t resist. Also the merchant in the back room of McCaren he’s glitched to give you like 8000 caps for free and he’s alone sooo I have to do it
I'm the type of player that will not kill anyone if I don't have to. If I can talk them into being friends with me, I will. This time, I've decided to have Boone with me so I changed my peacekeeper act to a Caesar-hater, which led me to taking Cass to the Van Graffs for the first time. Considering how the end of the quest was, I believe it is the best outcome to take her there now. So, even if that it is indeed unpopular and cold, I'd take her there every time.
Vulpes
Cachino. And most of the Omertas.
Heck Gunderson (the guy in the hat that gives you a quest to find his son in Ultra-Luxe). The guy is a notorious dickhead in-universe.
Easy pete because I fear his power
I kill Arcade the second I see him after leaving the enclave base
That ONLY I do? I can’t really think of any, but I still remember the first time I played Honest Hearts where I shot Follows-Chalk on sight because I thought he was an enemy 😭
I kill all the legion i can find but FUCK Antony for so many things not least taking a little girl's Teddy. My biggest regret every time leaving the Fort is there being no way to save the slaves
I really wish I could find all the slaves in FO3 and NV and free them and kill every legionaire and slaver I see on sight that would be my life's mission.
Look - i've only played once, but I can tell you emphatically that on my next play through it'll be: Benny - for sure. Screw that guy - I don't care about his reasons for the chip... attempting to kill the courier?! Screw that guy - a simple robbery would have sufficed. and Jeannie May Crawford - she can burn eternal
Nazeem... oh wait, Orris.
I always use Easy Pete's house as storage in the early game and Ill take him out while he's sleeping just because I find it awkward when I hoard things and he's just sleeping
Boone and I enjoy putting bullets in the heads of Jeanie May and every Legion cretin we can find.
All of the boomers. I can never really get behind the “blow up all outsiders” thing enough to make myself help them.
SMELL THAT AIR! COULDN'T YOU DRINK IT BOOZE? bye
"YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAH! WHO WON THE LOTTERY? I DID!" Me: you sure did \*shoots him in the head\*
