      Depends on who was murdered, the situation/context, and the overall societal veiw. If it was a Ranger gunning down 3 Raiders in the Wasteland, thats nothing, no one would bat an eye. If its some psycho stabbing 3 kindergartners to death in a classroom (as happened multiple times in the last several years, and the numbers were like 20 kids or more each time in China, and other countries) well maybe thats a bad example because still the Media didn't bat an eye either but the local community was devastated.

      Due to how pathing to a location works in Gamebryo, it's less intentional and more just being less work - the pathing system doesn't account for danger, so you need to split their path up in chunks to try and make them avoid enemies. Since they didn't really expect players to follow, and the game doesn't simulate encounters in unloaded cells, they just didn't bother.

      KagenNoTsuki Depending on accent, it can end with ‘shun’, ‘shon’, ‘shirn’, or ‘sh’n’. In Received Pronunciation, it is a central open-mid sound, whilst ‘Jon’ contains a back open sound. Seeing as the word needs to be broken to ‘per-cep-tion ’ in order to fit the rhythm, it will push the final vowel to being over-pronounced. I made the assumption that readers would over-pronounce in the direction of ‘on’, rather than ‘un’, but it’s very possible that I was wrong 😊

    Watching the first 10 minutes or so makes me think about how much I like the opening few hours of this game. I know people say it starts slow and boring, but I like travelling down the desert roads to western music, following caravans, getting introduced to the towns and companions one at a time. I find it weirdly comforting and relaxing, like the uncharted planets of Mass Effect 1 which I also like, I guess I'm weird.

      I get a similar feeling from exploring the actual Mojave desert. You won't believe how deathly silent it is out there, especially in comparison to the suburbs where there is always an air conditioner running. The desert has only been substantially populated in the last century, but plenty of people take their old TVs to target practice that it might as well be post-post apocalypse.

Once they finish their travel package they either just stand there or are disabled if they are set to do so.

    I think the reason they keep Oliver, and some of the other NPCs, alive and send him unarmed into rad Scorpion territory is so that the player can potentially stumble upon his dead body when they pass through the area. I've seen games do this before: NPC expresses desire to explore the world and runs off in that pursuit, player subsequently finds eviscerated body of said NPC in an enemy area.

      Personally, I just think it's a fools errand. Yes you could do it just like you can do any shooter with that ruleset even if it's very silly, but I think the challenge exposes Fallout 4's lack of depth and problems far more than anything else. Does it expose anything interesting apart from "which build is the most OP for the challenge?" Are there _any_ interesting choices it'd mean he would have to make, apart from which faction to side with at the end (not interesting at all imo)? It would be boring by comparison with his other runs, and force Jon to confront that it's not as fallout-y as a game as he's been holding onto it as.

In the JSawyer run, he followed the legionaries in Primm until they were gunned down outside Searchlight, although stated that he knew they were walking all the way to Cottonwood Cove. He also completely forgot about the time he dedicated an _entire video_ to breaking into Benny's secret escape tunnel in the JSawyer run, because he showed it off again in the no skill playthrough and said that it was the first time he showed it on the channel.

I also have that perk that allows you to uppercut enemies thirty feet into the air. I wonder if anything can be done with this?"

Also they have some seriously nice loot. Honestly made me wish I'd gotten on the NCR's bad side more often.
