Real Life Fallout

Post by hatebreed »

Hey, I was just wondering what everyone would do if one day YOU were called upon to save your village (or City, or Metropolis, or farm, if youre from Wisconsin).
Me? First, I would not have the moniker of "Chosen One", Id go with something really corny and attumpting coolness...like...Capt. Cool, or something stupid like that. Next, I would make everyone in my town give all the good stuff they have to me. "IM going out to save YOU, so give me that gallon of milk already. And you! Hand over your 16 year old daughter...she may be uh...helpful on my perilous quest!" well, thats just the start, Ill say more if some else writes funny crap too.

Depends what I was saving. If it was say...melbourne, I'd simply say foad. If it was the town I grew up in I'd probibly give it a shot, but I'm lazy so would end up just finding some cheap booze and getting smashed.

To be honest, if I was appointed savior. I would tell them to accept the fate, and lie down and die. Don't get me wrong, I would try. But most likely fail.
I support everyones right to make a fool of themselves.:chainsaw:

I just wish I didn't do it so often.

I would accept it , but in exchange I would want some ''prizes''. The best piece of land my city had to offer , the most expensive items and a good position in the town leadership.
As for a good name , maybe El Jesus II , that would be cool.

Brilliant.

I'd have them give me all their base.

I wouldn't give a crap, really. Then again, I'm in a fairly large city, and I know about 40 people total...I might save them. Possibly a few of the dancer chicks that go to my uni.

I'd propably never become the Chosen One. I'd just fortify our house on this hill and prepare for raiders and mutants alike. And farm land, yeah.

Most of us aren't motivated enough to do all of our homework, do you think we would even try to be the savior of the entire human race?

The most I would do is grab a shotgun and start defending my house and family, The world gave up on me a long time ago and I gave up on it

Were anyone foolish enough to attempt to throw such a responsibility at me, I would consider it my sacred task to remove them from the gene pool in a thoroughly violent manner. Yes. :drunk:

Hm... I might possibly have enough ambition to gather our local town's folk together to unite our strength against marauders and shit, but heck no - I ain't risking my neck to destroy some 'masters' and 'clavers' in far-away cathedrals and oilrigs. Uh-oh. That's the job for retards like Davide.

But think, youre "tribe" is going to die because of no "waterchip" or "G.E.C.K.", that includes youre friends and family. I think Id convince my family to move on and me and all the younger stronger ones in the family would rob everything and move on...probably end up living in New Reno and take over the Bishop Family, that dudes wife was hot...AND she was smart!

It would still be a suicide mission. Ever tried to play Fallout hardcore - without dying or reloading ONCE during the whole game. And besides - I wouldn't be the youngest, brightest, strongest and fucking davidest of all the people around. If I were... Then there wouldn't be much idea to save mankind in the first place, don't you think? :D

Well, after taking turns making potshots at idiots who just stand there and never duck or take cover (and I do the same just to be fair) I would go join up with the bad guys who even though they hate me I convince them that they're wrong because I don't have any zits on my face
