I'm trying really hard to do a House playthrough, but the guy is pissing me off. He would be the best option for the future of Vegas, but his tone in dialogue is starting to get under my skin. I enjoy listening to him with the history lessons of the chip, and pre-war and such. But when talking about the jobs he wants done, he needs to change his tune. Currently, he wants me to wipe out the BoS. I don't know, just for some reason I never enjoy wiping out their bunker. So i'm going to help them as Still In the Dark and the Black Mountain quests are awesome. And then I am going to go kill House and place Yes Man in to the Lucky 38. Well maybe, we'll see. I also don't care what he did to the Khans either (idolized by the khans right now). So some vengence against him and the NCR feels pretty good to be honest. And I wouldn't be concerned with the BoS trying to take back Helios after the battle at hoover dam. I would place a good amount of securitrons there to protect it, just incase. We need to make sure the full region is getting power!

mr house dosent touch the helios one area since hes got the dam and helios one is barely putting power out with multiple black outs. Why would he want a pea shooter when hes got a 44 magnum?
As far as the bos, he wants them out for 2 reasons and he states them. First is that even with indie, the bos are gonna atk and try to salvage the secritrons to see how they operate when the intention of taking them from you. Hes wanting the bunker blown up because the bos will eventually die trying to get the secritrons, hes just ending it so he dosent have to waste time and machines on something the bos will eventaully bring down upon themselves. If u know a bunch of raiders are holed up somewhere, is it better to nuke them them and their hideout now with little payment or wait and engage them over time when they come out raiding?
That brings me to the second reason. The bos in the mojave are not like lyons bos. They kill and steal from people who they think has tech they want. They took out an entire fota base just because veronica wanted to join up with them and thought she was telling them about tech and their secrets. Also in every ending slide they are left alive, they raid and steal from people along the highway. What happens to people that wont give up their tech? They get killed by plasma and laser weapons and their tech is conveskated.

As far as his tone. The man is hands down who of the most brilliant men who has lived and has found a way to cheat death, got vegas up and running with the old spirit intact, and has manipulated the ncr into protection and power and cash.
I believe the man is due his pompus attitude. For all we have done is just survive getting shot in the head which is mostly due to to luck more than anything else. It is actually due to mr house in which we get so much reconition from the ncr and the legion because we actually get to go in the lucky 38. House is viewed as a powerful man and just us getting into the 38 grabs ncr and legions attention.

So yes, imo the man has a reason for every single one of his actions and even has the right to have a self important pompus attitude towards us, the man has deserved it.

Kill him.

Lol ya thats always and option and the reasons are soley up to the players. I was just shedding some light on a few conflicts he had with Mr house. When I first started I always killed him BC I couldnt ever take out the bos because fo3 was so fresh in my mind. Took me awhile that they are totally different chapters and totally different planes as far as morals and goals and such.
