I'd rather not see the LW...but if he's there. [censored] it, I'll buy him a beer.

Hah. Meet Nigel? He'd actually be in the Commonwealth at some point in his life im sure. it was only the boundries of finished reality encasing the Capital Wasteland that kept his exploration and wandering restricted to DC. If he was a real person in a real Falloutverse he'd be all over the post-nuclear Americas, not just limited to the US of A.

Its not going to happen since I really can't see Bethesda establshing a 100% canon LW that is completely different to our characters just so they could have a nifty encounter. But part of roleplaying for me is to create my own fiction, and having all of my different RP characters meet up with eachother is something I really enjoy thinking up scenarios for. The Fallout 4 character is a bit of a prototype right now, but i'm sure the conversation between the two would be less about saving the wastes and more swapping travel stories and nerding out about all of the weaponry they've found.

I said beat him up not kill him.

My Lone Wandered is either

A) Being Lord of the Pitt after defeating Ashur. Its hard work recruiting new people to produce steel and waiting for scientists to produce a cure for the Trog affliction

Waiting on his spaceship while waiting for the other Aliens to turn up.

Either way I doubt he is hanging around the Capital Wasteland drinking purified water.

And it WAS a sloppy mess. I had spent over an hour putting in all my information, only for it not to sync up to my Xbox live account. I then spent an hour and a half with customer service trying to figure out the problem. What a joke.

Then I ended up not even liking DA:I.

Oh I just realised. My Current Lone Wandered is trying to read the Krivbeknih

Can't we just let the poor Lone Wanderer relax? He (or maybe she, sources aren't clear) did all that work getting clean water in the Capital Wasteland and now people want him/her to go The Commonwealth? No rest for the wicked!

I did always wonder how the Lone Wanderer would end up.

At least with the Vault Dweller we knew how he ended up (founded a village with fellow vault dwellers and started his own family)

The Chosen One ends up the Elder of his original village and also passes on

The Lone Wanderer is a bit of a mystery. There is lots of things he could end up being or none of them. I kinda think he ended up living in Rivet City and found a significant other (Sydney?) and thats that, but certainly FO3 were much more open with endings than FO1 and FO2 were.

i looked my last play through pre ttw up. She was a borderline she hulk wanabe with maxed stats and skills, my last ttw vault/courier? Full blown shehulk and a small mostly power armored infantry company of companions from both games,all DLCs and several companion mods.

No Steve is not one of them....

In my head-canon, mine had gone to the Mojave to become the Courier. By the opening of Fallout 4, she's either just packing up for the trip or is likely halfway across the country by now. Why would she ever want to go back to the East coast?

Well having your own vertibird and network of kingdoms to lord it over is a start.....

Would really ruin my game-to-game RP...wouldnt mind some punk claiming to be the LW based off of the "Legend" just so we can question him and see what crazy stuff he has to say...might end up being like those pathetic Chuck Norris jokes the internet cannot stop shoving up their hind-ends

I guess with his godlike abilities (9 in every special, maxed out skills) he would just complete the main quest for us. And then go on to solve everyone's problems just like he did in dc. Seriously imagine if boston was just another dlc area for him to dike around in, he'd have that place licked in a third the time it takes for 111 to meander through it.

Actually i think that is the real reason past protagonists shouldn't show up again, if they followed the insane drive to complete everything like they do in their own game there would be nothing left for the new protagonist to do

That would be good, kinda like Conrad Verner from Mass Effect.

Well it would seem a little odd to me since in my FO3 playthrough, my char sacrificed himself so is already dead. Though if he showed up as a ghoul it could be plausible.

Can you imagine?

*Vault 111 Dude steps out into the harsh wasteland for the first time*

Vault 111 Dude: “Ah, what wonder, horror and adventure awaits me down in these Wasteland-”

*Lone Wanderer and Courier are lounging in park chairs a few feet away, sipping lemonade while eating pork beans*

Lone Wanderer: “Eh, no sweat big guy, the two of us already took care of all that mess in Boston.”

Courier: “You missed a hell of a fight. BOS, Minutemen, Ghoul Redcoats, Synthetics, Enclave, and the Institute all clashing in one huge dramatic battle on land, sea, and in the air. We even had to use the USS Constitution at one point! All good now. Come hang with us and bask in our victory.”

didn't the lone wanderer die in the canon fallout 3? like after project purity you get locked in that room and cant get out and you die right? That was the whole annoying part about how you couldn't keep playing the game after completing the main story. I know they edited that so that you could continue but wasn't the canon that the lone wanderer dies?

Doubt it. If they pulled that, a lot of people will be furious.

Only if we say Broken Steel is non-canon. But Broken Steel most likely is canon... so no the Lone Wanderer don't die at Project Purity.

They did do that though. I remember playing the vanilla game of fallout 3 and couldn't continue, a lot of people were furious. but then expansions came out so I guess the expansions are canon

Oh no. The Expansions are canon. Whatever will we do.

I never said it was a bad thing, I just haven't played them

Then he dies.
