Not much else to do in that box. Especially when you make it out with all the gold ;)

He went through all but, acceptance. Becuase that would mean...letting go...

Denial: "It can't end like this!" Anger: "I'll find a way out, somehow...then find that Courier..." Bargaining: "There's so much down here, so much you could see!" Depression: "Veronica? No, she thinks I'm dead..." Acceptance: "You. I know you can hear me. When you die, Courier...I'll be waiting..."

Nah, he still wants to fuck up the Courier. Even in the after, he'll be waiting too.

Just Roni I felt like he was "accepting" his death considering what he said. But true, he hasn't quite...let go.

I like how he mocks you at using Pip-Boy "It dulls your brain, tells you what to do." Yet he himself uses it.

“That piece of RobCo” trash. Man he was a dick but so well written

it wasn't just a terminal :) how foolish this idea is. The whole casino's security system is far more complex with the one-time trap when it opens it closes shut for good and no overrides can fix this. Not even if the one'd be a tech and science genius. And Elijah got himself in a bear trap he couldn't escape despite his genius

And to think that I didn't even touch it, just swooped through the entire level before saying Hello from the elevator

He would've been trapped even if he didn't touch the terminal. After you go up the elevator undetected, the machine is set to stay in place. So the only way you could ever escape from that situation would be to climb up to where the elevator is, blow it up, and then escape. And that's assuming you didn't read Sinclair's personal accounts :D

@Jing Bot The Courier pretty much owns Big MT according to the main personality of The Sink because he surpassed the brains of the Think Tank, Elijah offering the location of Big MT is funny since the Courier can just teleport there lol.

I thought that phrase meant for us. remember the stack of gold that we can take and sold for 10k each? We have to think how to take everything without being trapped when timer ends, or just leave it there, and leave all those gold. Luckily i'm on PC so I can just use my magic storage chest mod and store the gold there, get out of the vault, sold the gold in gun runner's, and buying the best guns.

The game gives you a way to get out of the vault with everything in it, without cheating, without hacking, without using fancy perks, without even using a stealth boy. 3: The fact that the real treasure of the Sierra Madre isn't even the gold -- it's the mountain of old world cash you can bring out of it if you plan carefully enough. And 4: The fact that, contrary to what you here assert, if you play your cards right, you _can_ in fact team up with Elijah, and canonically take over the Mojave with him (and, one presumes, the world). Absolutely brilliant.

You can only hear this if you trap Elijah in the Sierra Madre vault and by listening to that radio frequency. And yes, that crazy S.O.B deserved it for enslaving so many people to their deaths.

I trapped him, but when I listen to that frequency it's just him rambling about the gas in his lungs and how the collars don't work or something.

and it wasn't like he was very hard to fight anyway.

Maris Grablevskis Its a glitch that unfortunately still resides in the Ultimate edition of the game. I have the same issue

I was reading through comments and this was the one to hit me the hardest

Guilt that was caused by his greed for the secrets of Helios One

@@d.n5287 Elijah do not started the war against NCR, and he was just ambicious looking for tecnnology

It wasn't guilt at all, he didn't even cared if Veronica survived, the only person in the world that could be considered dear to him. Elijah it's indeed very greedy, but what drives him insane is frustration. *Frustration for being hold by an organization with the potential to save the world who no only refuse to but will gladly except its own annihilation as long as the Codex says so. *Frustration for sacrificing so much in Helios One just to figure out the secret was a gun that it's practically useless in a real battle. *Frustration from having to deal with the remains of all the bullshit from the old world scientist, businessmen and politicians as much as Ulysses. *Frustration to see how once he finally was close enough to achieve his goals, he find himself alone, in darkness begging for help in those who he hurt and have move on from him (Ulysses, Veronica, and even the Courier refusing to murder him for revenge). He lived in frustration and he died in frustration.

Funny thing is, he got what he wanted. He was all alone in that quiet vault.

One of the most atmospheric DLCs, I'd say on par with Lonesome Road in my opinion. I was legitimately scared when facing the Ghost people with little weapons and ammo. I loved that.

For real! It gets even scarier when you forbid yourself to use dispensers +unfound loot mod and 1 luck hehe. Gotta eat radroaches and drink from toilets to survive! I also like to pretend that Ghost people are really attracted by gunshot noises so only use knife-spears and melee lol And Lonesome Road is a tough one too, with all them high level creatures and oh my God - the tunnelers. And I thought death claws were a pain in the ass xD

Yeah, and finding an enemy in the Cloud is frightening. The tunnelers in the elevator sequence was also a serious pain too.

First time that I did it, I was completely terrified but now, while I'm no longer scared, I love this DLC still.

I would argue that with honest hearts or lonesome road.

Then tell him his voice acting is awesome

Isaias Tz I sure will sorry I’m late for some odd reason I’m not notified when someone reply’s to my comment

also tell him he did such a good job at making an unlikable assholes final moments insanely satisfying. then again, the best villains are ones you want to see pay for what they put you through. those final words were quite chilling.

supersmashbro596 I talked to him a few weeks ago by phone he said he enjoyed playing Elijah he said he loves playing the bad guys even though he doesn’t get many chances to play villains He said he loves his fans can’t do his work without fans

you can sneak out bro

Its way easier to just kill elijah against the barrier stash the gold on his body then run around through the normal route then loot his corpse through the barrier

Funny. All I used was the assassin's suit, the stealth boy, and La Fantoma. Then I walked away laughing.

The vault has a stealth boy inside. Hide behind one of those electric thingys until he activates the terminal then sneak past.

He was only desperate for any forms of hope.

Even IF (and it's a massive if) Ulysses or Veronica could get to the Sierra Madre itself, and actually wanted to save him, the elevator to the vault is locked to the structure's upper levels and cannot go back down. That and the fact that there's no way they'd be able to bring the equipment neccessary to get down to the vault and open the vault door to the Casino let alone pass the ghost people inhabiting the villa in a timely manner.

@@taab84 Not all of them were blind to his madness. There's a reason he was removed as Father of the Chapter and had assassin's sent after him.

He was a "good" guy. By that I mean he is the best option. He was a mastermind with Tech, and if he could have gotten the chance he wanted he could revive the world with the tech in the Sierra Madre. Vending machines synthesizing matter, creating anything you will it to. The Holograms defending a world without the cost of lives. The Cloud to wipe the Slate clean. And the Sierra Madre to build society.

Elijah was obsessed with new technology as weapons to destroy the entire NCR. Now he's trapped in the vault, he deserves that. The Courier become the boss of Big MT, manage to solve the chaos in Zion with the help of the Tribes and New Canaanites led by Joshua Graham. Only One Road remain and the Courier will walk alone to confront Ulysses on the Flag of the USA, before the Second Battle of Hoover Dam.

Plus if you have high luck, those gold bars aren’t needed with all that weightless Pre-War Money.

They certainly lack the same writing quality as NV DLCs.

TheForgery exactly they were more focus on settlements add ons rather than improving and expanding the story

I was going to say the same thing too. Bethesda got really lazy and decided to fill in at least 3 of their DLCs with something most of the community didn't want. What a scam, especially with raising the season pass from $30 to $50.

+katsupoi24 settlements are you kidding me Nuka World had one and Far Harbor had three all of which were small

You can side with him but you need to had low reputation with NCR and this will make the game unplayable than unless if you had another save
