for me its:

Perks:

Family Jewels: deals 10% more damage in Fore! attack and other groin shot attack

Tactician: followers deal 10% more damage

Brotherhood of steel knight: deal 5% more damage with energy weapons and get a 10% Defense boost when in Power armor
(evil version (Possibly but who knows) called enclave solider)
New California Ranger: 5% to small guns and 10% to combat armor
(evil version called Caesar Legionnaire)

Traits:

Sexpert: :eyebrow:

Bigot: Ghouls hate you but other Racists love you!

Ghoul lover: opposite of bigot

You are forgetting the fact that FO3 and NV won't have the necessary sophistication to implement those. The most they will do is that in the case of your "Bigot" trait, all ghouls will have a different opening line which will lead to standard conversation. I mean, you shouldn't miss out on content, right? This fine content has indeed been manufactured by the very Bethesda Shit Engine (tm) which no-one in the industry can surpass.

From a reasonable perspective, however, those perks are too powerful, all equivalent of "Sniper" in FO2.

Didn't they mention that they were, in fact, bringing traits back? And that Obsidian's guys were intent on making dialogue that didn't involve the same answers to different questions?

On the subject, however, I still think the "Strange Scent" idea I had about a year ago was a good one. -10 to speech and -2 to CHR, but Deathclaws are no longer hostile.

Unfortunately, Fore! doesn't actually attack the groin. It's a golf swing to the head. I like the idea though.

you know, even bethesda had you miss out on content depending on what choices you make. .
Given that and with obsidian working on it, why wouldnt they?

lol indeed. again, i know you all dont liek fallout three. but its not as black and white as you all are making it out to be.
I suppose you could still go to megaton after you blew it up? Stll get facial recronstructive surgery if you turned in harkness rigt off the bat? live in tenpenny if you didnt blow up megaton?

the idea, the point, is that getting contend based upon your choices is an option. even if you dont agree with how bethsoft handled it-obsidian is releasing this one. so lets see what they do. sheesh

We all originally thought it was, but the new screenshots and interviews with the Obsidian devs said it's not a groin shot.

Leto II had super human reflexes with the trout skin, didn't he? I mean, until he himself turned into the worm thing.

That he did. He managed to do all sorts of fancy shit when he first got it.

Its been forever since I've read Dune, I only got to the God-Emperor of Dune in the series, I've heard the stuff by his son isn't that good.

Never read the Dune books, just played the games. Books any good?

The books are fantastic. I've, sadly, read all of them including the prequels and all that. Easily one of my favorite series of all time.

What KoC meant to say is "The first one is fantastic". Dune itself is great, Dune Messiah is ok, Children of Dune starts to get a little gay, and then it's just a pile of rancid shit after that (including the prequels by his franchise raping son and that "i'm a star wars wrtier!" fuckhead.

Exactly my thoughts on the series. Dune was, in a word, amazing. Messiah was pretty good. Children definitely started a "Wait a minute..." and after that is a rapid, rapid slide into shit. The prequels/whatever in gods name his son calls them are basically an examination in literary necrophilia.
