who do you side with?

Mr. House. NCR and Legion are just greedy and evil bastards. Well, NCR is less evil than Legion, but still bastards.
Yes Man would be ok, but anarchy is not a good thing.

My first playthrough was Anarchy (Yes Man) and my second was House. I currently have about 2 characters for each faction though but House is I think my favorite...and most likely canon.

I've played through twice...almost, I'm still working on my second playthrough. The first time was for House, this time is with the NCR. Both have been fun, and couldn't say which is more fun till I actually finish this playthrough...which most likely won't be for a while, since I plan on using this character for the remaining DLC's. I've invested alot of time in him to throw him away (134 hrs and counting).

The Legion, a strong leader and a tough-as-a-million-nails commander is what can bring true stability to the wastes.

I always gravitate towards the Yes Man/Independent ending for some reason. =/ I always seem to manage to screw up my relations with the Legion, too.

Currently working towards an NCR ending on one playthrough and Legion in another. Legion scares me for some reason - possibly the whole companion thing ...

I'd actually like to see the NCR outcome, of all the endings.

I usually side with the Legion, because I think they're the coolest. I don't think they're the best for humanity, but I always try to side with the badguys if I can.

However, the one I think is the best for humanity (and the Courier too) is House. Space travel and immortality?) Yes please.

No. You are wrong. Mr House will most likely be canon, because it won't influence any other areas. And it makes sense for the man who saved New Vegas to run New Vegas.

Look at these people coming around to supporting House, finally, people see the real hero of the game. :celebration:

I side with House, because, by and large. House is the best future for humanity. So long as NCR keeps it's nose clean and doesn't try to invade the Vegas region a second time, then the two working together as business partners could save alot of people. AND House seems to be the only one who doesnt kill/kick out the Followers in the end, and since I am a charitable person, I enjoy seeing the Followers maintain a presence in Freeside, especially after all the healing chems I've donated to them. Plus, killing off the Fiends means House can allocate his bots to other places in the Vegas region. :vaultboy:

I like that you like Mr.house but he isnt the best hope for hummanity all he really cares about is New vegas. If he would care about America then it would be different.

I don't care about America, I only care about New Vegas. Besides, NCR is already on that ball, so it's not like no one is trying to reshape the country for the better. Besides, NCR as it stands is stretched to thin as it is. It'll be some decades before they could expand en masse to the Eastern borders of all Nevada, moving further east.

Personally, I have the same field of vision as Mr. House, if it's within my little bubble, I want it reshaped as an image of splendor, a beacon of progress to inspire others into those footsteps. Outside it? Not my problem, I have no want to expand.

Edit: At least House is willing to be cordial with NCR, more than anyone can say of Caesars Legion.

Oh now i see. I though you cared about America also. Since i see that you only care about New vegas i get what your saying. But isnt that a problem just to leave the rest of America to sit in rot while his precocious city doesn't?

Nope, in due time, NCR will spread, Lyons will spread, and so will other factions who are trying to do what's right. New Vegas is but a microcosm of America, I will be able to focus all my will to help see it prosper, and with House sending NCR power via Hoover Dam, as a sort of Post-War electrical company, they get power, and being pushed back into California, NCR can focus it's money where it needs to go, which will happen with Oliver and Kimball getting the boot in the rear they need. The way I see it, House coming to own Vegas benefit's NCR in ways more important than money or expansion.

Yes but Mr.House is also taking the money away from NCR since they are gambling there.

You're right, but the gamblers go on their own choice, they do what the people before the war do, they go to Vegas chasing dreams of being a big shot, of feeling like a winner. If they want to waste their money on things of excess, it's theirs to blow it on. House doesn't MAKE anyone come and gamble.

I think Mr.House Is the best chance humanity has (if his claims to be un-corruptable and run autocracy are true). You can't save everyone, why would you care to? On one hand you could stretch your power, leadership, and resources thin(Like the NCR). On the other you have the opportunity to focus it all in one highly productive area, making actual scientific progress. Think of it as plucking an endangered species out of a badly polluted habitat and inserting them into a fresh new one instead of hopelessly attempting to save the polluted habitat taking up precious time and resources with no guarantee of success.

Legion. At full capacity, they would win a battle against the NCR. They, unlike the NCR soldiers, are skilled fighters and they actually train

NCR, every time. I like to play as a die-hard NCR zealot who kills anyone opposed to my country. I always turn Primm NCR, and tend to kill people who don't say nice things. Had to kill Veronica because she was BOS... the enemy. Tom Anderson? That was an NCR soldier he killed, so he had to go. I even turn in Contreras for selling guns.

If there was any possibility of having the BoS win Hoover Dam, you better believe I'd make it happen.

...


WTF are you talking about?

There is no such thing as America in Fallout.No1 is obliged to care about the people outside his region.How can a random wastelander in the Capital Wasteland care about a random tribal in Arizona?They have barely anything to eat or drink lol..Every man is for himself.
And ofc you got a bunch of people banding together because its in their best interest to band together for mutual survival like the NCR and the Legion or independent towns like Megaton.NCR is in no position to influence anyone or anything outside of the California region at the moment and its surrounding territory,for example the Mojahe.
Its likely that they wont expand too much any further in the next few hundred years because of communication,infrastructure,transportation and many other problems in post apocalyptic world.They have economic crisis as it is,at the moment.



That said im for Mr.House.He is the best option for the Mojave.Independent iconomicaly powerful New Vegas.It will serve as a buffer between the Legion and the NCR and it will be a stabilizing factor in the area.Also its the best choice of canon ending.
