Lone Wanderer had greatest adventure and lone wanderer is greatest hero of all time in fallout history.

Lone wanderer saved capital wasteland from super mutants and destroyed two enclave bases. It also had great adventure in pointlookout and killed dangerous hillbillies and saved the pitt from slavery and fighted in great war again invading china forces and also he saved the entire world from alien invasion.

Yeah true, but i would still say the courier. Try roleplaying that the lone wanderer is the courier, and then their adventures seem twice as epic

The Vault Dweller had the most significant adventure, so I'd say him followed closely by the Courier who I thought had the most interesting adventure.

Tough, because they are all good in their own way.

I'm going to go outside the box and give the LW some love. My reason being this is the only hero who was going to sacrifice life for the greater good, regardless that was later saved. Pulling a Mr. Spock/dikeens move earns my respect.

I seriously cried when i finished the game. Damn, why didnt i buy broken steel?

There, I corrected that...

I only have the LW or the Courier to choose from, but I have to 100% agree with your assessment Longknife. The road of the Courier holds the fate of a nation in her/his hands. Well, considering the DLCs, she even helped decide the fate of a tribe in Zion. Plus, the Divide is a long, hard road of self discovery and hard fighting. There is nothing that could even begin to compare to anything the LW had to face. Not to mention all the factions and other DLCs the courier must face.

The Courier. He not only decided the fate of an entire region but probably all of the United States, at least all of the West Coast. If he sides with Caesar or NCR, that dramatically shifts the balance of power and allows one faction to conquer all of the lands of the other faction, then continuing to spread.

Kill Caesar's Legion and the Legion crumbles. Kill NCR and they'll slowly die from continuous Legion attacks and internal political struggles.

But the Courier's stories are on par with the Vault Dweller. The Vault Dweller's tales of killing the Master is legendary but so is the Courier's story of fighting the other Courier at the Divide. Not only that but changing the balance of power in Zion, saving all of the Southwest against the Think Tank, and the heist at the Sierra Madre.

But what tips the balance is what the Courier did before the events of New Vegas.

All of these are very closed events and we don't even know how much of them are canon.

I think the once where he helped BoS against Enclave were canon, as they are the most popular choices.

I think the once where he helped BoS against Enclave were canon, as they are the most popular choices.

man, the courier. the things he or she did, the places he or she has seen......... outstanding. courier 6, big mountain, the mojave wasteland, new vegas, the west, the east.... this ones seen it all. astounding.

He hasnt really seen much of the east, beside crossing the colorado and that.

I think the ones where he helped the Brotherhood of steel against Enclave were canon as they were the only choice.

You could also [censored] up the purifier, as that doesnt help the brotherhood, i see that as helping the Enclave in a way.

That no longer happens. Broken Steel is canon, events are talked about in New Vegas with Ed-E. So this means even if you put the FEV into Project Purity, nothing happens, no one dies from it. The plain was a total failure, which means the Enclave being in Fallout 3 was completely pointless.

IMO the Lone Wanderer had the least interesting adventure and contributed the least to the Fallout Universe.

James & Catherine along with their science friends built Project Purity.

James figured out what it would take to get it to work.

Dr. Li got the Lone Wanderer in with the Brotherhood.

The Brotherhood got Liberty Prime working with no help from the Lone Wanderer.

The Enclave gets the GECK and they hook it up to Project Purity.

Liberty Prime does all the work destroying the Enclave at project Purity.

The only real contribution of the Lone Wanderer in my opinion is that he rescued James from Vault 112. But after that he just became hired muscle for James. Killed some super mutants and changed some fuses. I guess turning project purity on counts for something, but thanks to Broken Steel he doesn’t die from it.

Yeah but its still an option. Thats what i was saying, helping BoS is the most popular choice for reasons.

Yeah but it wouldn't be made canon. The Enclave didn't win because of it. The Enclave get destroyed no matter what thanks to Broken Steel. The only "bad" option they can make for the Lone Wanderer is if he blew up both the Enclave and the Brotherhood.

I was not connecting the ending of the main quest (without dlc′s) with broken steel, i was talking about where you ruin the purifier and do what Eden says. And excactly i was saying it wouldnt be cannon.

Wackiest adventure: Chosen One. You can become a pormstar, a slaver and a member of a utopia of bigots all at the same time!
Hardest Adbture: The Warrior. Have you seen those Browning M2s loaded with uranium wielding super mutants that the warior can kill?

Greatest Advebture: Vault Dweller. He blew up a military base, the master, joined the brootherhood, saved tandi(the chief of ncr for lots and lots of years), smashed the khans, founded a tribe, gave the world another a hero(to all but pure strain humans), and as longknife explained faced a world that he never saw before with confidence, bravery and manhood

Sounds like Skyrim, except there you can be a mage, warrior, theif, assassin, dragonborn, thane (of many holds), officer (of the empire or stormcloaks) and a werewolf vampire.

Like that joke hasn't been heard before.

Chosen One, he or she got laid the most......................... what?

Well the "bad guy" loses in every FO, so I'm not sure how your Enclave in FO3 is pointless.

Master loses. Enclave loses. Enclave loses. Someone loses(or everyone loses).

Also, LW meets Lyons Pride without Li. Kills Behemoth Super Mutant.

LW takes out RR.

LW also 18 years old. Fairly decent accomplishments for a youngster.

If comparrison with say courier, it the same..maybe greater.

Personally, I think what the courier does only effects the Mojave. Would his actions result in the destruction of Legion or NCR? No. Only factions that would be forecer changed are strictly Mojave. Boomers, New Vegas, House, etc.

If you just go by saving the world, it would be VD or CO, prolly warrior, too. If you go by ultimate sacrafice LW, and maybe warrior if canon says he gave up a brain(but is now possibly immortal).

All fairly similar in some ways, and each worthy for the stories they are involved with.

And it only took a silver tongue or/and a truck load of caps!

Hmmn, see, the thing is... I still maintain that the player is the bad guy in F3. So ultimately the bad guy wins. Sure, its cannon that the player saves the day by purifying the water but he is a horrible, horrible person about it. President Eden sets him free, on the condition that he destroys the capital wasteland; due to this the human contingent of the Enclave rebels against the president in an attempt to stop the 'hero' from destroying their world, instead of ever thinking "hang on, these guys actually dont want to kill everyone!" his solution is to simply kill them all, including the valiant and brave Colonel Autumn! Who had always intended to purify the water, and use it as a tool to unify the capital wasteland, and by jove he would have done it if it hadnt been for that meddling kid.

Haha, anyway rant over.

For me, the greatest adventures in order; The Vault Dweller, The Chosen One/The Courier, The Warrior, and then the Lone Wanderer way, waaaaay down at the bottom of the pile.
