Outcasts?

Is there a store at Tenpenny? I've not been by to collect my next magnificent outfit, yet.

I've only ran into outcasts once. They were a shade rude, and then promptly ambushed by the brotherhood and then some super mutants. They left some nice loot though. I'm going to put off completing the story as long as possible. I hate the thought of giving up my character. I listened to an interview with Emil and Pete from Bethesda and they said they were genuinely surprised people wanted to keep playing with the same character. They said the original idea was for the player to die and end the story, but that was more of an interesting concept than anything that would've worked out well. I run around in Oblivion with my super duper swordmage whenever I play it, so I'm reluctant to give up my crazy asshole guy who has a 100 in small guns, science, and repair. I believe my title is Harbinger of War.

I keep reading that. I'm putting it off as long as possible. Somehow, I've only managed to pick up a handful of the quests. I think I spend too much time wandering around and killing mercs.

haha - will do!

I've maxed out four skills already. I should be able to max out one more my next level up. If I choose the tag perk, then two more. From the achievements, I can tell there are a lot more quests to do, I'm just not sure where they exactly are. Ah, I'll just drag it out some more.

I maxed out my character last night and I fear I'm coming up on the endgame. I'm sort of rushing toward it because after 30 hours I feel like I've done enough. Still, for a game that I pretty much only bought because I REALLY wanted that awesome lunchbox it's damn good. I'm really looking forward to whatever expansion ups the level cap.

Fallout 3 was kind of not that great overall but I really enjoyed exploring the wasteland enough that I spent probably upwards of 80 hours on the game. Hearing that Obsidian was doing the followup has me pretty hopeful because I hear the writing and RPG stuff was like the best part of Alpha Protocol (for people who like story and RPG stuff). I'm thinking if anything at least New Vegas should be more humorous than Fallout 3.

I also like how they're adding a hardcore mode because Fallout 3 was way too easy, even on the harder difficulty settings. When I eventually do play New Vegas it'll probably be on this mode, because a post-apocalyptic wasteland should be about survival overall. The need to survive was kind of toyed around with in Fallout 3, but I think Bethesda was too scared of alienating casual players to really follow through on it.

Also maybe this time around it won't be possible to max every single stat just through normal play. That might be hoping for too much though.

I liked Fallout 3 a lot, but Obsidian being on the project is the only thing that scares me. They seem like talented people, but they have yet to actually finish a game before releasing it. KOTOR 2, Alpha Protocol, and Neverwinter Nights 2 were all released long before they were finished. I want New Vegas to be good, that's why I asked about it, but there will be no way to know for sure until it is released.

Yeah I haven't actually played any games by Obsidian myself (though I do intend to check out Alpha Protocol at some point) but I figure since they're using the Fallout 3 engine then the game should at least be as technically competent as that game. Meaning, they aren't starting entirely from scratch if they're using F3 as a template of sorts. Hopefully this means New Vegas won't be any more buggy than F3.
