lol. These videos are just too perfect.

Man, I was loading and reloading the Fallout 4 page all morning and missed this! At the rate we're going we will have 20 days to go when the last one, Luck, hits the 'net.

I like this part:

"Use your charisma to negotiate your way out of tense moments"

I'm hoping this means you can use charisma to get out of fights in ways that do not require the intimidation perk, although they could be just talking about speech checks

Agreed.

These series are so good that I'm already sad that we're past halfway. They should make it a TV series!

these videos are so good ...my sides hurt so much

It probably means using a perk.

But at long last C is finally getting some love. I'm really liking how there doesn't seem to be such a thing as "dump stats" anymore.

apparently a Yao Guai's lick can melt flesh.

I did not know this.

No, Booboo, down. No. Stahp.

I'm still going to start with a 1 in Charisma and then build it up over the length of the game. My guns do all the talking.

A temporary one at best I assume.

That used to be my approach too, until I found out how much content I was missing out on, then I started talking more myself =)

Except for Slavers Paradise. They always died brutally with no questions asked, before or after.

The attraction of being tied naked in an alley and being licked diminished at that point

Is all addiction covered by Charisma? That makes no sense. You'd think addiction would be governed by Endurance.

Oh great, as if i didn't kill enough murder bears in Skyrim :rolleyes:

This video seems different from the previous ones. Did the team making them change or something?

I think they are talking about the party-boy perk that is under charisma, rather than charisma by itself. It looks like there is also a chem-resistant perk under endurance (bunch of syringes bouncing off the VB)

I laughed when the lady stabbed him in the eye with the fork!

She was all like "fork you!"

wish we could meet him in the game as a person that would be cool just me and my mate pip going round shooting up the place

I'm not too worried about missing out on things. I was probably 50/50 at Paradise Falls. Sometimes shoot them on sight, and a few times I actually helped them. I'm hoping slavery makes a return in Fallout 4.

Watching the video made me realize: Fallout 4 Charisma = TES Speech and Illusion, lol

Actually, addiction can be either physiological or psychological. Endurance is only for physiological addiction. Psychological addiction is much more common and is usuall ignored in games, so it makes much more sense for Charisma to govern psychological addiction (i.e., habits of various kinds).

I think it's meant more like you're the life of the party. Some people lose inhibition when intoxicated. While this could mean wearing a lampshade on your head, and being crass with everyone, it can mean being more funny and/or gregarious. This perk is that difference.
