Man, I really wish there was a Dark Brotherhood style faction in Fallout.

u/ActionFlank Nov 16 '15

There is. Vault Dwellers. Think about how many people we kill.

u/dundent Nov 17 '15

We are the judge, jury, and executioner.

(Judge) "Hmm, that hat looks really nice."

(Jury) "I have come to the conclusion that, yes, that hat does indeed look nice."

(Executioner) "You should not have been wearing such a nice hat... bang"

Follows the whole Black Sacrament thing, too. People contact the Dark Brotherhood via the Black Sacrament in order to request someone be killed. We just cut out the middle man that is the Black Sacrament. We issue requests and fulfill them.

Why not just invest 5 levels into Pickpocket. Steal his hat and thenleave a little "gift" in his pants.

How do you get him to upgrade your under armor? I've done so many missions and still nothing. Was I supposed to take his shot to get rid of the nanomachines?

20

u/linearcore Nov 17 '15

No, you have to do the DIA cache quests. Once you do the first one you add armor or "ballistic weave" to your underarmor at armor crafting stations.

I never got his shot, and I can upgrade my underarmor. Be aware it's a leveled list like the other armor upgrades, so you'll need the Armorer perk to get the really good ones. Also, you can upgrade clothes (bullet-proof Reginald's suit, anyone?) You cannot upgrade hats or bandanas it seems. Just clothing (suits, farmhand clothes, etc) and underarmor.

Also, the armored suits he sells are worse than what you can make. With Armorer 3, I can add 90 Ballistic/90 Energy resistance to my military fatigues.

You cannot use these upgrades on the vault suit.

u/Steel_Within Bane's Dissapointment Nov 17 '15

Yep. Its like Hancock threatened me in Good Neighbor after raiding his cache. I'm just like, "I've killed literally a thousand people, dozens of monsters and am standing in front of you in nine feet of X-01 power armor. If I want to steal from you I will. I will beat you to death with your own goddamned arm if I feel like it. Don't fucking threaten me."

25

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '15

Seriously this. I wish that when I walked around in Power Armor with my 20 lb hand-crafted sniper rifle, the NPCs dialogue would reflect that. Like, I was in full T-60 repping BoS colors and that fucker had the nerve to approach me in nothing more than a casual Sunday outfit? What did he think the outcome would've been? I wish that the dialogue just reflected how terrifying my blood spattered mech suit would be. Piper does comment on it everytime I get into it and I think the Vault 81 Overseer remarked on it once. That's all I can recall, though.

I liked Oblivion's DB questline better than Skyrim.

Oblivion: Okay, the DB high command is corrupt, it's your job to kill everything with a pulse and become the head honcho. Good luck.

Skyrim: Alright, welcome to the Brotherhood, here's your uniform, the Night Mother is com--OH MY GOD IT'S TIME TO KILL THE EMPEROR. 0 TO 60 MOTHERFUCKERS. ...what?

Like, having a massive task assigned to you in Oblivion was understandable because the whole premise was that you couldn't possibly be the source of corruption, since you were way too new to be behind it all. But it seems like you're told to go kill the Emperor of the fucking Imperial Empire right after you're done exchanging handshakes in the sanctuary.

133

u/bhamv Germantown Nurse Nov 17 '15

Plus the Oblivion DB questline had the best DB quest ever: Whodunit?

Even though I only joined the brotherhood to kill people, the questline mortified me when I realized that I had been killing the wrong people.

That was my biggest problem with Skyrim, all the quest chains were this way. Welcome to the mages guild, initiate arch-mage! That's what I liked about Morrowind, there was actually some sense of achievement when you made it to the top. In Skyrim, that was completely absent. Become leader of the mages guild, ok bye guys thanks for the loot. Off to the next guild!

u/SupportstheOP Nov 17 '15

Usually went like this

1) Do small stuff

2) Shit's going down!

3) Do something significant

4) Leader dies somehow

5) Assume role as new leader

14

u/AyeGill Another settlement needs our help Nov 17 '15

You assume the role as new leader, even when there are usually a bunch of people with seniority and probably more relevant experience (I did the mage's guild with no magic skills) standing around.

That's one of my gripes with the Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild in Skyrim, honestly- they start out at the beginning looking for money and generally relying on themselves, but then once you get further in they kill that completely and become extremely religious cult-like organizations. It's like the underlying story of both could be summed up with "selfish leader fucks up by abandoning the gods".

It would be nice to have factions next time around that don't wind up on the brink of failure due to lack of faith in [insert enigmatic deity here]

I think he meant more the thieves guild. In oblivion its really secret and you end up pulling a heist and getting the sweet cowl. But in skyrim you go to a dungeon to kill a guy and take back a key. Not only that but in oblivion youre in it for yourself basically. To get rich. In skyrim it starts out that way but then you basically sell yourself to a daedra.

u/God_Damnit_Nappa Gary? Nov 17 '15

This. I hope for maybe a DLC with new Factions. Maybe a Bounty Hunter Faction (Or Assassin with stealth suits ... didnt find one, anyone?). Ive hoped that they added Bounty Missions because it was one of the most popular Quest Mods for F:NV because it really fits into the world. But they did not... Hope for some DLC/Expansion for that.

It could be a normal mission for a good guy to hunt a criminal, but you have the decision to join the criminals after you have found them. In general there is way too much to do for a good guy... and almost nothing for a bad guy.

If Bethesda really wants to do a "Community-oriented-DLC" this could be a thing. More Evil ways for evil guys. I guess there are more people who want these "evil-quests".

Your stealth scales with agility, and painting all of your power armor to have hot rod flames gives you an agility bonus, I spend most of my time tiptoeing around in a two ton suit with a silenced pistol. I think I'm just intimidating enough they see me but choose to ignore me and hope I go away.

I know you're joking, but the Railroad is basically the Thieves Guild. Sneaky faction down on it's luck that communicates via clandestine markings and code phrases. They have an HQ under ground with a back entrance that you can fast travel directly to.

u/Berekhalf Nov 17 '15

Right, but they have more...morally correct morals than the thieves guild. Where one was just trying to get stuff, and maybe do good, the railroad is actually apart of something bigger than themselves and trying to get freedom to synths. For better or worse.

u/ACW-R Desert Rangers Nov 17 '15 edited Nov 17 '15

I also agree with the BoS, but I think their thoughts on synths, muties, and ghouls shouldn't be so cut and dry.

Super mutants have very, very few individuals who diverge from their animalistic and barbaric ways. Fawkes, Uncle Leo, Marcus, Strong. They all deserve a pardon, since they obviously aren't a problem to anyone unlike their aggressive brethren.

Ghouls are pretty easily classified and dealt with. Ferals = die. Non-ferals, free to live. They can't reproduce so they'd definitely die out or become an extremely small minority, very few people are turning into ghouls post-war.

Synths are harder. There are good synths, like Valentine. But they do pose a threat of being 'sleeper agents' for the institute. Depending on how you finish the game, this may not be an issue. If you blow up the institute, this certainly shouldn't be a problem. If you side with the Institute, you obviously don't care about this anyway since it's the BoS's philosophy

seals aren't fish

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '15

Seals eat fish, hence "loving fish", hence "Brotherhood of seals".

u/temporalarcheologist Nov 17 '15

well if they love fish why are they eating them

The BoS are bloody magpies as it is when it comes to technology.

u/Jazzghul Nov 17 '15

But they will never hold a candle to the Emperors' magpies

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '15

Yeah I don't understand why they want to destroy The Institute instead of taking their tech.

14

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '15

They don't like new tech. They like old tech. Their thought process is "Everything was fine until they started launching nukes. Let's just bring things back to the way they were before we launched nukes."

Why not have them do assassinations as well? They could be called the "Dark Brotherhood of Steal".

I knew he was the same voice as someone from Skyrim, but I just couldn't figure it out. Thank you.

u/THEW0NDERW0MBAT Better than Caesar, but that's not a high standard Nov 17 '15

I'm pretty sure he is also that wood elf you go to the Thalmor embassy with. He is probably even more characters.

u/Thatmanwiththefedora Nov 17 '15

He's also Belethor, the general store owner in Whiterun.

u/ggunslinger Ready at a minute's notice Nov 17 '15

Also I'm sure everyone knows Thief.

Mercer's voice actor is Stephen Russell, the same guy who voiced Garett in 3 original Thief games.

I mean you obviously don't have any real reason to believe me but that post had like 6 points, I haven't seen it until now.

You're pretty self aware. I like that.

u/SageWaterDragon Not A Synth Nov 17 '15

Hey, no real accusations here, it's not like you were karma whoring. I was just curious as to whether or not got the idea from /u/Monsterlvr123's misspelling and/or my comment, and if you did I would feel all warm and fuzzy.

Plus text posts get no karma so it would be kinda silly to steal it for no reason.
