So I just came to this conclusion while at work here. Yes, I should be working but you can't dismiss a good idea.

So I was thinking about how vast and detailed the Fallout world is. We saw it with Fallout 3 most recently and now a welcome addition to that, Fallout New Vegas. So much to explore and see.

I just saw a thread that caught my eye "Help me get around game breaking glitch" and the thought dawned on me. Bethesda and Obsidian, you magnificent bastards! You've given us a game within a game! I don't know why I didn't see it before, but here it is.

When you buy Fallout New Vegas, not only are you expanding on the Fallout world that you know and love (thanks to previous games) but you're also getting the unspoken quest of how to play the game without breaking it! So clever! Thanks Bethesda!

It's like those movies where there's a sub plot that is actually more important than the "primary" one and ends up winding and twisting the story etc, etc etc. So in Fallout NV, you must play the game but play in a way that you avoid destroying it. That means skipping random quests and hope that the quest you skip wasn't a crucial one and pray the next one doesn't cause a melt down.

I don't know about you guys but this is pretty clever on their part.

Anyway, thanks and enjoy.
