My adventures in Paradise Falls

Post » Thu May 03, 2012 5:17 am

Below is a tale of my encounter with the people of Paradise Falls.

Note: I had a Very Good alignment and a shotgun with a very itchy trigger finger.


Anyway, my tale begins as I walk up to the gate and am stopped by a surly guard who asks if I know where I am. I find out its a den of slavers, and since I'm a man of virtue (despite playing a female character), the fact an entire town existed purely to traffic live human bodies offended me, and when the gentleman asked if I wished to preach, I gave an exhortation from my trusty shotgun before he could raise his own weapon.

This aroused the natives, so I then went on a missionary journey, emptying my shotgun, firing the message to Pharaoh to let my people go in a manner most swift into every head I could find whose owner raised a weapon against me, and as the word of freedom spread like wildfire, a stack of slaver corpses piled up as divine wrath struck them dead for refusal to recant of their human trafficking heresies.

Once it was all over, a work pleasing unto Heaven had been wrought as I realized my shotgun was completely out of ammo, and as I set about freeing the sheep from the now slain den of wolves, I felt good for having preached the gospel of salvation to the lost and visiting retribution to the recalcitrant.



....anyway, now that my tale is over, I wonder what anyone else thinks of my tale, and I also wonder, from a gameplay standpoint, did I screw myself out of anything unique/lost forever by murdering the slavers of Paradise Falls to the last man, or should I feel no remorse for having done a good work in eyes of Neutral and Good aligned Man?

Not really. It depends. My character is very evil, we'll talk more about your transgressions later :stare: .
You can create an extra vendor, by fulfilling Pronto's quest at Lock n Load.
You can get an unmarked quest from Eulogy, though it's one of the worst, evil quests around.
You can get a follower if you have evil karma.
You can get a quest from the gatekeeper, a large one.

However, these are all bad karma quests. So you're good to go. You can always come back on a later play, when/if you are evil. Hope you decided to poke around, if you know what I mean.... there are items of great interest there.
Really, the razing of Paradise Falls depends on my character, and what they feel at the moment. Neutral and evil characters let things stay the way they are. Good characters take great pleasure in its destruction. A mini gun is pretty fun to take into PF, as well as a fatman, though this tends to spread crap everywhere, and it takes longer finding things.
Keep an eye out, cuz I'm looking for you now. No one messes with my friends. :swear:

Items of great interest??? Ill have to check that out again. Currently im on what I call extinction mode. (Kill absolutely everybody)
And yes im helping my self to a few modest Items with amo when ever I need them (via the console comands) But no Vats and im not really bothering with scavengeing and quest completion. So Im not getting much advancement.

Paradise falls next up. But I think Ill try pokeing around this time. youve got my curiosity.

In my current play through, something has happened at Paradise Falls that is completely unexpeted. I went in as usual and competely and utterly destroyed the slaver faction. I had a reason to return as part of a mod I had installed and found that for some reason Clover has been marked essential. I was completely suprised by her resurrection and found it very difficult to kill her. Just to make sure this was not part of the Mesme mod, I returned a few days later and found her again in Eulogy's Pad. And again a very difficult kill. Since I had completely looted the area, I no longer have a reason to return to Paradise Falls, I'm just going to leave her to her own devices. I hope she starves!

If only I had a top-hat and a tuxedo at the time, get a fitting haircut and that would have completed my run through of PF with Lincoln's Repeater quite nicely. One .44 for every slaver's head. Although I don't recall finding much stuff of interest there. Maybe I should go have another look.

Other than PF I don't really use LR for anything else, too little .44 ammo to start with. I keep a slew of guns on hand in case one starts really getting worn out before I can find another to repair it; that way I can switch to other options. Fawkes is pretty much carrying the big guns for me, while I generally use combat shotgun, Chinese assault rifle, .44 Magnum, sniper rifle, tri-beem laser rifle, gatling laser, and a slew of grenades & mines. Besides, I like to mix it up once in a while.

I feel like going to kill paradise falls, just for eulogys suit, damn its sixy. But I want to sell my slaves and the such. I am in a pickle, I am in the mood to go make a new lonewanderer..... Perhaps make him the most evil man in the wastes... to many things to choose ;)

Cheers,
Pat

Sorry to put a damper on your party. My character stands on principle.

Anyway, my tale begins as I walk up to the gate and am stopped by a surly guard who asks if I know where I am. I find out its a den of slavers, and since I'm a man of virtue (despite playing a female character), the fact an entire town existed purely to traffic live human bodies offended me, and when the gentleman asked if I wished to preach, I gave an exhortation from my trusty shotgun before he could raise his own weapon.

This aroused the natives, so I then went on a missionary journey, emptying my shotgun, firing the message to Pharaoh to let my people go in a manner most swift into every head I could find whose owner raised a weapon against me, and as the word of freedom spread like wildfire, a stack of slaver corpses piled up as divine wrath struck them dead for refusal to recant of their human trafficking heresies.

Once it was all over, a work pleasing unto Heaven had been wrought as I realized my shotgun was completely out of ammo, and as I set about freeing the sheep from the now slain den of wolves, I felt good for having preached the gospel of salvation to the lost and visiting retribution to the recalcitrant.


Can I get a Hallelujah and an Amen? hahahahahaha I already freed the kids at Paradise Falls, now I need to go back an introduce the slavers to MY terrible shotgun!!!!!! I already killed the ones at the Lincoln Memorial! hehe
