Wedding Ring

I've worn it for over two hundred years. I think that's long enough.

I'd wager there's some perk reward for holding onto it through the end of the game.

I can see it now:
"You have gained the 'High Fidelity' perk. For you, the ball and chain was grafted to your body! You now gain +X when you wear your wedding ring!"

I'd actually be a little surprised if we can even take it off. We've never been able to wear rings before in Fallout. And since we're not crafting enchanted rings like we do in The Elder Scrolls it seems like it might not even be an option.

Bleh, that would svck. Be kind of weird though, flirting with Piper and "Hey what's that ring you got there?"

It's also possible that the PC only removes it when they start romancing a companion.

I will keep it for a while. But when I complete the main quest or after a really emotional part of the game likely involving my dead spouse, I will throw it into the sea, or put it somewhere special. To create a sense of resolve after all that has happened.

Well it does list in ya pip boy inventory and it does have the little square next to it that indicates it's equipped, so it's not to far fetched to assume ya can take it off.

My first character is going to keep it, but might be tempted to move on when he actually meets other women and thinking she is gone. However, hope, meaning the wife is still alive, is still there and may not give it up and just wear it, or if too long looking for her might move on with his life.

*OT/ wild speculation: thinking the main antagonist is the spouse and using the child as leverage to join her side.

I wonder if it will open additional dialogue if you keep it? Especially with companions. Would be amusing to be flirting with Preston or Piper and have them call you out.

There is of course... the possibility that its flagged as a quest item and can't be removed.

Even if my character's wife is dead, and even if he moved on to someone else, it would be truly disgusting to simply sell or throw away a symbol of the person you once shared your life with.

So unless I have to remove it to equip gloves/armor/whatever, I'll be keeping it equipped.

Not if you plan on keeping the ring and are worried about accidentally dropping it somewhere.

But does if you plan on dropping the ring somewhere and forgetting about it.

I don't think I'll keep it. or sell it. Even if I meet my wife/husband later in the game or she/he is dead.

Maybe I will leave it there, at the entrance of vault 111, as a memory of all the familys lost in the bombings.

So if a stranger happens to stumble upon this wault, he may remember.

I can not recall, is it really in the inventory and "equipped"? If so I wonder if you can really drop it, as someone said it might be a quest item. As it functioning as a Amulet of Mara, I wonder if the purpose of a wedding ring would still be known to wastelanders. I would keep it though. Not equipped though, I might meet something very interesting along my travels. Though I doubt companions can be as intriguing as in Bioware titles.

When they show of the apparel screen at E3 you see a listing for wedding ring with the little square next to the name indicating that it's equipped.

Also, you can actually see the ring on the correct finger of the protagonist during the Character Creation video.

My first playthrough i will keep the ring, maybe take it off later down the line if my character fancies someone. In the end i will not sell it though, instead it gets a place in my homes strongbox or a display case.

Do we actually know that the spouse and child made it into the vault?

Keep it unequiped.

My character being married as a background is okay, but as a player I prefer being able to choose who will be my girl.
