Imagine if having the Terrifying Presence perk actually made the binoculars do damage? Or just staring at people at that point.

Honestly, I was expecting the joke to be that it was a pacifist run but you just looked at people through the binoculars now and then, this was something more. Definitely a good decision to spice it up the way you did, thank you for the content.

Kowalski: "You're desecrating a war memorial!" Nerbit: "DID SOMEBODY SAY BOOM!?!?"

Three minutes in and this video has taken a *fascinating* turn. Truly, the binoculars are an overlooked superweapon

It unironically took me untill the Ant Part to figure out that this was an April Fools Challenge. Highjacking my Top Comment to say Rest in Peace Mittensquad, we will miss you.

The binoculars are such an overlooked weapon, they’re useful for scouting and *bringing the wrath of god on any in it’s sight*

When he killed Kowalski, it didn't even look like missile strikes. It looked like he opened a portal above Kowalski to a dimension filled only with missiles.

I haven't played New Vegas in so long, I forgot there were Binoculars in the game. Thumbnails keep getting better and better, though.

Here's the thing, right? *Imagine Kowalski actually walking out of that bombardment of Boulder City*

Fun fact: you can destroy the robot army and still side with Yes Man, and this makes Yes Man have some extremely passive aggressive dialogue before the final battle as he tells you you have to permanently disable the dam since you don't have the forces to hold it and Vegas at the same time.

Man, seeing Oliver get hit by that rocket barrage was so satisfying. Almost considering doing this run myself just for that part.

I honestly thought he was just going to mod the game so the binoculars to be a melee weapon and act like nothing was wrong... I was only half wrong. As I was writing this, the replacement for ranger ghost appeared lol

Day 8 Can you beat all of fallout: new vegas as senator Armstrong? No armour, only the pre-war businesswear and glasses are allowed. Use the drugs exploit to get 11 in endurance and strength. (Played college ball, you know.) Monocyte breeder, subdermal armour, endurance and strength implants all required. (Nanomachines, son.) Charisma implant also required. (I don't write my own speeches.) Only the bare fists are allowed as weapons. If this is too tedious, the ballistic fist is alright to use sometimes because of the giant flame pillars he makes in his final phase. (Don't fuck with this senator!) Side with the yes man and destroy all 3 other main factions. (every man should be free to fight his own wars!) Besides that, the rest is up to you; I'm sure you know the simple things like taking the toughness perk and I want you to be free to make this run as extensive or restrained as you want.

Funny how this weapon is still more reliable than the E-finder

There actually is a way to do a binoculars run with the first set of binoculars. Boon has that spotter perk once you max out his quest line. It let's you point out enemies for him to snipe. As far as I know he will always hit the target no matter the distance. So it wouldn't have to be a traditional pacifist run.

Recent play through brought me to the legion safe house and reminded me that time bombs exist. I then heard the voice of a hilarious Irishman in my head asking the question “can you beat fallout new Vegas, with only time bombs”

Enemy wondering where the Courier is Meanwhile the courier: I see you

Ah, I see you finally got around to doing a enclave playthrough. Good job utilizing the enclave satellite laser, I always forget that weapon is there. Very easy to miss

Hey nerbit! Love your videos, but could I suggest a challenge? A terminator themed loadout. Can you beat fallout NV as a T-800 High endurance and intelligence/ low luck and charisma Tag skills: Explosives, Guns, Science Can only use: lever action shotguns, miniguns, grenade rifles, or any guns the terminator would’ve used. Edit: also try to get as many implants or cybernetic themed perks.

Man's playing the game like a nature documentary cameraman

I couldn't stop thinking of the "He's dead already!" Simpsons meme when Kowalski got annihilated.

1 minute in Boone and ED-E seem to be the perfect companions for this run. Edit: Never mind

Alternate title: Crazy Man Stares At Men For 16 Minutes

This was awesome. Watching NPCs react to carpet bombing from afar has to be interesting. Great video!

This is one of the wildest challenges you've done yet. Can't wait to see the results. Thank you for another Friday evening entertaining video! *Edit* Got to the ants. Realised was April fools. Genius. Thank you Nerbit!

I almost pissed myself when the first attack happened. So damn funny.

Wow, been playing this game for 12 years and I've never heard anyone mention these binoculars, can't believe we're still finding new content in this masterpiece! Amazing

even for joke videos, you always make amazing content

7:34 "But when I fast travelled there, this happened" *An explosion loud enough to think another nuke has dropped 2 ft next to you*

The best jokes are the ones committed to with sincerity to completion. Awesome april fool's video

Euclid's C-Finder is nothing compared to the mighty pair of binoculairs!

Can you beat Fallout 4 as John Wick? Dogmeat dies, suit and tie only.

When April fools lands on a Friday.

Yes, the Binoculars are the most overpowered weapon in all of new vegas! Also can you beat Skyrim as the Headless Horseman, basically install a mod that makes it possible, get a horse by the end of the run, only use two handed axes for easy decapitation, kill Nazeem, and finally try to get a replacement head via getting a skull!

Dude this video was sooooo good. Was definitely not expecting this at all. I didn’t even know those binoculars existed in the game. This is a masterpiece.

Stalite: How much ordinance do you want on this monument Nerbit: enough to reach the center of the earth

Me at the start of the video: it will be just another no damage run? Ok After he picks up the *binoculars* : dang this will be fun

I came here for a April fools joke, and I was surprised to find an amazing video. Absolutely love this video!

seeing cook cook emerge from the absolute carnage, filled with murderous rage and heedless of the rain of death all around him was kino

The minuscule damage and aggro that the beam is inflicting is how Fallout 3 (and New Vegas by extension) deals with scripts being tied to a projectile weapons. I did encounter it during my creation of Zap-Away! mod for FO3 back in the day. Zero damage weapon never triggered the script that the impact should start. So I had to change the damage to 1 for it to work as desired.

Week 13 of asking: Can you beat Skyrim as Cesar Millan? The days are getting longer and Nerbit is no closer to noticing me or my cries for a challenge run. Many would have given up but not me because, comments are good for the KZfaq algorithm

Truly the deadliest weapon of all time Edit: holy crap

Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas using only binoculars? *We'll see*

Was expecting kowalski to appear out of the mushroom cloud running full speed at you.

If you do the ammo glitch. You can hold mini nukes inside the binoculars Fun facts with Brandon

Every Friday when I hear the ping and seeing nerbits upload is amazing

interesting premise for a video! reminds me of something I used against Kowalskis memorial

I always hotkey my binoculars. Adds a lot to the game for me.

Amazing video! Only gripe is I would've gone with Ben Ocular for a name

I went in expecting an April Fool's Pacifist Run. I sure did not *see* this coming. Amazing.

Such a glorious run and I'm wildly happy for finding your channel a little whiles ago

Always loved that missile effect.. Makes me nostalgic for the FO3 Broken Steel DLC trailer :')

i genuinely thought this was going to be a pacifist run, then i remembered what day it is XD

Listen, I just thought this was going to be a no-kill run with a gimmick, and I was definitely here for it. But three minutes in, I was like: O.O Great video

This channel needs more recognition

Despite Nerbit giving a volume warning, I was not prepared for the comedically brutal nuking of Boulder City

Nerbits videos are always a great way to start the weekends

You just made my day uploading Nerbit!!!

Why did Driver Pehi make me laugh so much, I genuinely haven't laughed like that for ages thank you Nerbit 😂

Despite knowing this was an April fool's joke video, I was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be just a modded, fun video to watch

11:47 Kylo Ren: MORE! *MORE!* Also, Can you beat Fallout 4 as Jetstream Sam? (Shishkebab/Fists only)

Wow, never noticed the special binoculars! It's amazing how many new things I'm still learning about in such an old game. :)

7:35 I will never fall asleep during a Nerbit video again

I was like, "Wait... There's satellite binoculars?" Then I looked at the upload date. One of theses days, I will not fall for any April Fool's jokes.

Genuinely couldn’t stop laughing at the binocular strat

Can you beat skyrim only using spider scrolls

Going on a nerbit binge and had no idea this was an April fools video. That saying, I cackled so hard at the ant bridge

Person recharging the missles at the satellite: i'm tired boss.

I have an idea fallout 3 as a Chinese spy you use a Chinese pistol and A Chinese Assault rifles, and a Chinese sword, outfit is the stealth suit As a bonus at the end you poison the water and destroy the citidel

Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas with only the Recharger Rifle?

Kowalski's brother personally assisted the strikes from heaven.

When I first saw the thumbnail picture I thought this was going to be a play through of " Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas as Patrick Star?" You put that idea in my head now I challenge you to attempt that run. Anyone else think that by just seeing the picture or want that to happen?

You know what would make these binoculars even more overpowered? Mininukes insted of rockets

I’m gunna be honest, even at the end I’m not absolutely 100% sure this an April fools joke

2:52 Control Dispatch: "Enemy Predator Missiles Inbound." Me: "OH SHI-" *Gets annihilated by Predator Missile Barrage*

im man enough to admit i didn't think this was a joke and fast traveled to the outpost to look for those binoculars

I knew this was a joke run by looking at the thumbnail also could you do a shovel only run at some point

I'm so glad there's an actual video in this. xD I was worried it was just gonna be a 16 min prank vid. lmao! Never been so happy to be wrong!

Like the idea that the courier is using regular bino's, just some drunk space station enclave are watching his adventure like a football game

when you want to see if there really is an underworld after all, but dont want to die, just core through the earth with millions of missiles

Kowalski * exists * Nerbit * 25 second tactical nuke *

Kinda unrelated, but I thought of it when you pickpocketed Benny… I think it wore pretty dope if these games had a “VATS Pickpocket” system, where once your sneak skill is high enough, if the target is in a crowded place, you go into vats and click a button to pickpocket, then you’re shown the inventory and you pick your item. Once you’ve made your choices and are all set, you trigger the VATS Pickpocket and your character would do a more realistic pickpocket grab, by doing a bump-and-snatch, or something like like that. It would play a little animation where you bump into them, apologize and pat them and acquire your item. If your sneak is too low, you get caught, but if your speech is high enough you could play it off like they just accidentally dropped the item and you picked it up or something.. if your agility or pickpocket is really bad you might just knock them down causing them to get angry and maybe become hostile. Also, it would be cool if you only had a few chances, and some characters are more suspicious or aggressive and some people are oblivious dummies, so if you try to bump into them repeatedly they might just get angry, call you a drunk and attack you, or a suspicious individual might just assume you’re stealing anyway, while an aloof person might be completely oblivious no matter how many tries you take. Personally, I think that Bethesda games should lean harder into the more niche play styles like Stealth, giving us more varied lockpick mini games, better pickpocket (like my idea) and perhaps the ability to frame others or shift blame when caught if you have high speech.. lots of people enjoy stealthy play and being criminals or Robin Hood style Wanted Avengers! I hope they make Fallout 5 and TES 6 more complicated, and not continue to simplify like they did for the last games. F4 and Skyrim are still amazing games and I’m glad to have them, but they definitely took the complexity down a huge notch from previous games.

The animation of the ground heaving up is really awesome.

Little tip for any future run, Loyal always leaves the hangar at night, you might be able to catch him, I'm pretty sure Pearl does too but I'm not certain

Jeez! Posted 1 hour ago, and already so many views! Keep up the great work, man!

After watching this vid many times, only know did the word "mod" reach me. Up until now I did not question the existence of such a broken item in the game, only the fact you were able to pick it up without the bear getting mad. Granted, I work while listening to the videos.

I was so shocked when your binoculars started firing lasers, and even more shocked when that caused the sky to rain hundreds of missiles on the ground😂

Nerbit out here beating New Vegas with the orbital strike from Battlefront. Dudes got a Star Destroyer waiting in orbit.

Ah the courier's stash binoculars DLC truly showed it's power this run.

Targeting the dead guys leg in order to kill the Legate is just meme worthy.

You should beat Fallout New Vegas as Ronald Regan by only wearing Kimbells Suit using the Fat Man,Archimedes,and a sledgehammer.

the binoculars are truly an underrated weapon. with the right stats it can be an incredible speed running weapon. can’t wait to see more people use them like this.

This is easily my favorite video I love when you just transition into the game shitting the bed like with the 2 step goodbye in the pocket sand vidoe

Sometimes I’ll put these videos on in the background when I’m about to fall asleep and just watch them till I pass out. But when I got to the ant part my jaw literally dropped in awe

One of the most elaborate mod showcase/feature videos around. I'll give you that

The virgin euclid’s c-finder vs the chad binoculars

LOL i love how weary yes man looks at the end. old boy looks TIRED from being sent by missiles

How many missiles do you want us to fire? Nerbit: "YES."

This is such a brilliant video. Waited all day to watch and it did not disappoint as a,ways. You dropped this 👑

11:55 bro really treated the war memorial like imu treated lulusia in one piece☠☠
