Truly eloquently spoken

Its a throwback to Tor's cows in F2

In fallout 3, there was a part that you needed to go into a school, but the machines were hostile. BUT if you had low intelligence, I think picking the 'ice cream' option when it asks why you are here, makes it think that you were a special needs kid & would not be hostile to you.

You can also pass this speech check with Luck 7 .... by also saying Ice cream

Fully grown man/woman that probably has at least 9 in str/end/agi/luck as you have 1 int and char. So basically "Special" Superman or Hulk. And i gotta say if Hulk screamed "ICE CREAAAAM!!" at me i would accept that password too.

In FO4 when accosted by a Mr. Gutsy one of the options is to say "Go fuck yourself you crazy robot". Hilariously enough the robot will decide that a Chinese infiltrator wouldn't say that, wishes you a nice day, and leaves.

The Courier and the bad bit-... Good boi he pulled by being "S.P.E.C.I.A.L"

ah! the courier has sub brick computing power. Having the computing power of a brick would be an improvement.

The idea is you’re so stupid Arcade sees leaving you without adult supervision as tantamount to murder

I mean. If you saw a child wandering about with grenades and guns and Nuclear artillery, wouldn't you also want to go along to supervise them? I wouldn't, I like to live. But Arcade Gannon is better than me.

Ignacio is one of the most polite characters in the game for the fact that he doesn’t talk down to low INT Courier

Yea good for Ignacio he understands what you mean doesn't try to correct you, just goes along with it knowing what you mean.... unless you actually did want pizza.

dude might be the most reasonable man in the wasteland.

Ignacio is a Follower of the Apocalypse. His training no doubt included lessons on understanding people whose brains had been melted.

@@urthofthenewsun8465Ranger Milo didn’t either! I mean he said “you’re special” but then explained the analogy in the most simple way to him 😂

A person stupider than him must have been really sobering. "I can't be that dumb, I really need to quit these drugs and stop disgracing myself. Otherwise I'll end up at least as bad as this guy." LOL

I think that's a translation.

It’s like regular show when Mordecai and Rigby drank Brain Max they were both so smart that they started talking gibberish to everyone else but between the two it was a normal conversation.

I believe Fallout 2 had a similar interaction to this one Iirc it's a translation of what they're actually saying ... It's funnier when you think about the fact they're probably mumbling nonsense

I believe its a monty python reference theres a scene where a guy is mumbling to a other guy and when the guards leave he talks normally

Completely mentally destroyed Silus at that speech. He is definitely thinking of killing himself because of that instead of the cowardice he showed.

It's right up there with "Ugh-lee" in fallout 1.

Its kinda sad how rude people are to you, ik its fallout but man it makes me happy seeing people be nice

​@@Krejii05its the way everyone talks down to you or makes jabs at you on so many of the dialogues. Like they just want to feel superior to you even though you have been literally shot in the head and can't understand what they're saying. Hell, even the Followers doctor at the new vegas clinic insults your intelligence, and the dialogue choice might as well be you mishearing what she said

It would be time consuming to rewrite every line of dialogue to reflect low intelligence, so they just did a few funny options to show it off and left ones that wouldn't have a different outcome alone.

@@HTacianas I just think it would make more sense to have the character say bafflingly stupid things like you see with some of the low intelligence dialogue rather than "googoogaga" talk.

@@HTacianas I blame it on voice acting. Since you'd have to pay the VAs to react to the low INT choices. Without voice acting you actually could re-write the script to reflect dumb-dumb interactions.

If the courier has low intelligence how is his brain still smart?

That's what it's like being low intelligence. Lack of awareness of the world around you.

After a bunch of playthroughs I use exploits and cheats to unlock 10 in all SPECIALs and most perks. It's really surprising how many options you get in the weirdest moments.

you never noticed dialogue like “i is scientist” and “yes! pizza”…… so not only do you exclusively make low int characters in the fallout game with the hardest speech checks but irl you’re clearly pretty simple as well if you pay that little attention to dialogue to never notice that your characters are all talking like toddlers

bro has INT 1 irl

Meanwhile the legion calls you an idiot

So sweet lol. 😅 Ignacios probably the sweetest though. No judgement

I know, right?

Interact with a drill sergeant sometime. They act angry with perfectly average 5 INT people, those are generally too shocked by the act. They act particularly angry with high INT, because they should know better And for low INT, they tend towards a patience with an edge of humor, often placing them in the care of more capable soldiers for coaching Dealing with knuckleheads is pretty much in the job description

He might

He has a lower Int than a mole rat, he gets Hegal wrong, by instead getting Fichte wrong, failing to understand basic dialectics, and is especially wrong relative to later works like dialectical materialism. Edward is a fascist larper, other than his charisma and basic combat skills he's no different to your average 4chan user.

Ironically, his special intelligence stat is only 4 points, just 1 point lower than snuggle's.

@@yueren3646 I mean, that makes sense. idk if I'd put him as low as 4 but part of what makes him such a good villain is how egotistically pseudo-intellectual he is, and how he thinks he's an epic bigbrain who chooses to rule through force because of his deep understanding of human nature, when in reality he blatantly misunderstands history and philosophy and is really a raider warlord like anyone else. kinda reminds me of your average twitter bluecheck these days...

He’s not well read. What he claims are Hegelian dialectics are just… not.

Lol the only npc dumber than an intelligence 1 player

Fantastic has negative intelligence, even a 1 intelligence courier is several leagues smarter than him. lol

The lower your intelligence the smarter he sounds. At max, he just grunts I think.

This is the best one

@@BioshockDrill At max intelligence you can’t talk to him, he instead just snickers and starts coughing profusely

it'd be funny if this was an inclination of things to come, like with the wild wasteland perk the rest of the bullet comes out at a set random time and suddenly you have Mark II intelegence score with the improper spelling still intact or the option to put it back in lol and jesus how did these guys do this much with a game that took 18 months, and 5 years latter we got fallout 4, where your playing a Dave Folley Yesman simulator for every broke air head in the commonwealth ugh............ welp, we know what perk Mr it just works chose at his character creation screen, I'll tell you that much lol and huh............oh god....... great now I wonder if it would be possible to make a meme playthrough full of every dumb quote that guy has ever said lol like the yesmen tooddd HOWWARDDD playthrough lol

What does he say

When Joe Cobb leaves the inn, the dialogue changes too. High intelligence: "I overheard your argument. What happened?" Low intelligence: "That guy seemed mad."

He shows up at your door shouts "ME BRING PACKAGE!" and throws it with all his might at your feet. Then he crab walks away with the posture of someone who's shat himself for the past 3 days.

Absolutely

Quite right, my compliments to the developers for such a memorable encounter with such a fine individual

Its basically Peter and his dad having their drunk unintelligible, intelligent conversation

"so anyways I started blasting"

It's also available to gay male courier's

Imagine like a 30ish year old man saying something like that to you omg

I wanna see this

Followers of the Apocalypse have a university in the Boneyard, I’d also imagine there is other schools in NCR

Sometimes you forget this is 2 centuries after the apocalypse and that humanity has made strides to restore it self in some respects. That’s a great example of some good ol’ world building

Fallout in my opinion is classified as a Post-post Apocalypse game where humanity already rebuild civilization to the point that people don't really need to scrapes for food or water anymore. So things like universities, schools, institutions, ect, already existed with some qualified doctors and professors even by modern standard.

Bethesda fucked that up with fallout 3 and 4 where most people are still depicted living like savages even 200 years after the nuclear apocalypse.

@@worlds3061 I by no means consider FO3's writing great, but I don't see it as contradictory to other games. Fallout 3's Capital Wasteland was bombed into oblivion, is plagued with raiders, slavers and super mutants, so the civilization there does not have much chances to pick itself up. Exploring the wasteland with rare solitary communities which are trying to pick up the pieces of the old world is a different mood compared to diving into FNV's boiling pot of factions and ideologies, and I respect and like FO3 for being that

Pizza

Ice Cream!

I drive too, driver!

the courier meant peace in pizza also me shoulder

i think he just doesnt comment on your intelligence at all. I always assumed its cause hes just like. a nice dude.

He probably thought pizza meant peace. As someone with a speech impediment, it happens a lot when people are trying to be nice. I say the correct number or letter weirdly and they just write them the wrong one to not question me.

xdd

He means peace, and that line is a reference to Caesar and how he was originally a Follower of the Apocalypse before he created the Legion.

Its easy to accomplish when the other game's options are just "yes", "no", "funny yes" and "no but later yes"

the NV dialoge options can be a pain in the ass to navigate...but yes, they are definitely more rewarding I also love the fact that there are prostitutes advocating themself loudly in the streets and swears being used. It just adds so much to the atmosphere. Cant remember someone in FO4 even daring to swear onec

That's the difference between Obsidian and Bethesda. One is actually competent at writing. The other is just tripping their way through game development

​@@KuueenKumi the way I've always seen it is like this: Obsidian (at least before the outer worlds) felt like Fallout, dark but with a teeny bit of dark humor to accent all the depressing stuff. Bethesda basically took the "dark humor" part and flanderized it, like how 3, 4, and 76 feel like Disney versions of Fallout, with very loose definitions of "scary" or "dark humor". The recent art direction is even a good example, everything has to be bright and shiny, even when the game literally takes place 76 years after a great nuclear war. Bethesda seems to want a "hope for the future" theme as opposed to the original fallout theme of "basically everything is fucked, and humanity's urge to fight itself will always ultimately overtake and overshadow the legacy of anything else".

@@thesneakystrangler9002 Spot on. Bethesda's entire research into Fallout was reading the Steam pages of Fallout 1 and 2. It still cracks me up: Fallout 3 is "Go find your father" and Fallout 4 is "Go find your son." Bethesda really are the king of completely uninspired and uncreative RPG writing. They'd probably get better results from high school students taking Creative Writing 101.

You need to let go

Another Obsidian game that does the same is neverwinter nights.

I just discovered this today. I know how my next playthrough is going be 😂

Moar sped. FASER VROOM VROOM 🚗

Fallout 1 and 2 did this. Probably easier when there's no voice acting to rewrite all the dialogue

Nuh-uh!
