Which faction should I go with?

Post » Sat Aug 01, 2009 8:06 pm

I'll let you decide, because I don't. :3

I've already been with Yes Man and NCR, but hey, shouldn't hurt to do it again?

Legion has a pretty fun game and imo the best endgame on the Dam (plus Lanius being all manly is pretty fun)...House is obviously a choice if you haven't already, personally I find House's more interesting but Legion's more straight up fun. Arizona Killer is quite tense.

If you can't align yourself with any by ideals, I can suggest picking sides by karma

Mr. House - Neutral Karma
NCR - Good/Neutral Karma
Caesar's Legion - Evil Karma (Male only)
Yes Man - (Very) Good Karma

But of course, the candidates are not bound by karma and I believe they all have different endings for different karma rates, but the above is how I see they fit best

People still care about the karma meter?

Go with Legion, they're hella fun and you get to wear a nice combat skirt.

(Oh and Pistolero, I always side with Legion with female characters.)

Mr. House. That's one I haven't even done yet, but I like him more than the Legion.

I have picked Mr. House as a result of karma.

Although, the Legion may be my pick on my next account, then I would've sided with all factions then. :wink_smile:

i prefer NCR all be cause they have Veteran Rangers. And why? Because their over powered guns like Anti-Material, Brush gun, Ranger Sequoia... Their are just so f**** up in HC mode. Even in normal difficult their are pain in my ass.

I found the Mr House run the most amusing. NCR is only about defending and retaking stuff, Legion has way too little quests, Yes Man is entertaining but lacks a great plan. House is an awesome character, his plan of taking the Mojave is so much more intelligent than the NCR and Legion's plans. Also he's this mystery underdog who'll wait to strike when the time is right.

NCR: The NCR seems to involve the most immediate good. If you consider the possible endings for all of the factions, most of them seem better off with the NCR in charge than they so with other alternatives, though there are exceptions.

House: House seems to be the choice for those who support long-range good. With his intelligence and knowledge, and with the vast amount of caps, power, and influence that ownership of the Dam and Strip will bring in, he hopes to rebuild the world in earnest.

Caesar: According to the Narrator, the Legion will bring civilization and order to the wasteland, but at a horrific price for most of the factions. Even their allies (the Khans) are treated mercilessly. By and large, the Legion seems to be the worst of the four choices, especially if Caesar dies and Lanius takes his place.

Yes Man: Seems to be the choice of those who favor anarchy. The Securitrons (especially if upgraded) will police the strip, but without the Legion or the NCR to manage the wasteland, it will be chaos and mayhem, and many people will die. Potentially, it's just as bad as the Legion, but for opposite reasons.

I rather wish that, in the event of choosing Indy Vegas, the player were allowed to ally themselves with a given faction, which would step forth to fill the power vacuum. Logical choices would include yut not be limoited to:

The Followers: The Securitrons would work to protect the Fort and coordinate with relief efforts.
The Kings: The Kings would expand theoir power base and work to restore order in and around Freeside.
The Brotherhood: The Brotherhood, backed by Securitrons, would retake Helios and carry out their technology-hoarding agenda.
