It’s crazy to think about what Fallout New Vegas could have been. Despite being one of the most highly regarded and celebrated games ever made, there were a handful of folks at Obsidian that wanted the FNV to be a more satirical experience in line with the old Fallout games. Ultimately, the team decided this […]

Fallout 4 is a game with a ton of returning characters. Dr. Li, Elder Maxson, and the subject of this Fallout 4 guide: Robert MacCready. Yes, that annoying little brat from Little Lamplight is all grown up now and can even be hired as a mercenary. I’ll be the first to admit that this is

I have a massive bone to pick with Cait. Her Irish accent is possibly the worst I’ve ever heard in a video game. I am Irish, and I can assure you that next to no one on this island speaks like that. It’s like her voice actress (who is Scottish) put on the same voice

Intro Paladin Danse is Fallout 4’s resident Brotherhood of Steel companion, much like how Preston, Deacon, and X6-88 represent the game’s other three factions. This means that you need to do a Brotherhood playthrough (or Minutemen) to keep him as a follower into the endgame. So, if you plan on shacking up with the Railroad

Intro There are only a handful of companions in Fallout 4 that aren’t tied to a faction, and Hancock is one of them.

Despite being the fifth companion that the player actually meets, Piper is by far the most accessible of the bunch. That’s

Intro Out of Fallout 4’s entire compendium of followers, none are quite as beloved as Nick Valentine is. This warn-down, sarcastic Synth detective is full of cynicism and wit, making him the perfect wasteland companion. Not only is Nick one of the only Fallout 4 followers with a personal quest, but his backstory directly ties

Fallout 4’s followers are incredibly hit or miss. At least, they are for me. However, Curie is honestly just great. She isn’t just my favorite Fallout 4 follower, but one of my favorites from the entire franchise. It’s rare to find a character that has both a loveable personality and actual effectiveness in combat, but

Intro Fallout 4 changed the game when it came to how Bethesda handled followers. The entire companion system was streamlined, doing away with follower quests and triggers, instead replacing it with an affinity system and companions that directly tie into the main story of the game. This change came with both negatives and positives, but
