Useless steve at the big battle: "don't worry guys, i've got a plan." *proceeds to remove high-tech power armor, revealing silk underwear, and then getting high off his arse*
After winning the battle of Hoover Dam, Useless Steve falls over, bonks his head and forgets everything again, and his first thought is to mess with a crashed sattalite.
I hope you dont mind? But i had to go root'n around in your noggin to pull out the bits of lead.. why don't you look and see if i left anything outta place.
If I were General Oliver, I'd be questioning my sanity as I relied on a guy wearing leopard print pyjamas and a pimp hat for my essential victory over the Legion.
But on the other hand, if a man just chased off the Legate despite wearing pyjamas and a pimp hat, you probably want to show that man some respect, just in case...
@@ManyATrueNerd General Oliver: How'd did your confrontation with the Legate go? Useless Steve: Oh, you know, slipped into something comfortable, had drinks, and well, lets just say, asked to see Lanius's gladius, if you know what I mean. General Oliver: You know what, I'm sorry I asked.
On one playthrough I set off the self destruct at the bunker I wanted to keep Veronica as a companion, so I put on a disguise, but I had only one disguise on me, a Legion disguise, but not just any Legion disguise, so as far as the Brotherhood knew, Caesar himself rose from the grave to personally destroy them.
If you do her questline first, and tell her to leave the brotherhood, you can do it and keep her, since at that point she's no longer part of the brotherhood. Least that's what happened to me.
I used a Brotherhood disguise. The named NPCs were still hostile, but for some reason the generic dudes stayed neutral, even as I killed their leaders and set the self destruct. They just let me walk out of the bunker.
JLuk how can you claim useless Steve is worst courier when he rushes through with easy perks and he’s not useless at all anymore. In fact he uses knowledge of the future to win. That’s the problem. Useless Steve isn’t played useless. Useless Steve knows exactly what to do. He’s the most non useless character in the universe. He knows the future and how not to be useless.
@@anomystic The point of the run was never to play a useless character.. you were mistaken. It was to *START* with a useless character, and show how someone can make the game work for them..
Jon: "I've snuck in one of the most powerful weapons you can, so killing him will be easy." Me: "You've also snuck in 6 grenades which can be reverse pick-pocketted, so I think it should be even easier than you think."
I never knew that about Rotface. That's... brilliant. It really is. Kind of sweet too - the poor bastard has nothing else in the world and yet he goes off to buy a hat to make himself feel better.
@Conn Benn It depends on how you treat him IIRC. If you were mean to him, he tries to mug you. If you were nice to him, he gets shot and killed by some freeside thug.
My headcanon is that Benny's bullet messed his mental stability up so hard that his former, extremely clever personality split off into multiple facets, one of which now talks to him, instructing him how to pull some of the more ridiculous shit off. I mean, everything that Useless Steve does... seems useless and dumb, but has a purpose. Ain't so useless no more...
And in winning the second battle of Hoover Dam, Useless Steve proved that he is in fact NOT useless... He does however have the charisma of a damp rag.
"Steve, this is simple, even you can understand it: you point the satellite designater at a point you want to hit and the orbital weapon does the work for you!" Steve: breaks it
In this episode we talk to Liam O'brien, Liam O'brien, Liam O'brien and Liam O'brien while stealing from Liam O'brien, and killing Liam O'brien several times in the process. Once you hear this guys voice, he is literally everywhere. He is the real life Gary of the Fallout universe.
That's actually amazingly meta. Most people wouldn't even notice that but they shelled out the big bucks just for it. Musta made em an offer he couldn't refuse.
He was recently elected mayor of the town after the last one tragically died in an unrellated wildlife incident. He maried and settled down in what used to be Easy Pete's home.
Sleepytyme with its silencer and 220 DPS is still the most powerful holdout weapon (as the enemies in the casinos don't have much in the way of damage threshold)
It's also the only holdout weapon that works for the "Nyah! See?" challenge, making it even more ideal to bring in if killing members of the Three Families is planned.
I love the idea of Useless Steve rocking up in his party outfit, blitzed on moonshine and uppers, throwing his arm around the Legate and drunkenly explaining complex geopolitics, thus convincing the Legate of his immense wisdom.
And thus, Useless Steve partied so hard that he forgot everything he used to "save" the world, and woke up in a DLC with nothing but the hat on his head. (Please keep the hat. It's just not Useless Steve without Easy Pete's hat.)
7:03 - "four week notice" [cries in American] Sidenote: I do like that even after completing How Little We Know, you get good karma for smoking Cachino
@@exantiuse497 It's not illegal to quit without notice but it's frowned upon and, barring extreme circumstances, will eliminate any chance you have of getting a recommendation from the place you quit. Two weeks is the standard notice to give. But I've never heard of an employer giving notice before firing an employee (though occasionally downsizing can be preceded by rumors).
Actually, if you press abort selfdestruct, the head scribe added a note to add it soon, so they can't turn it off. Though them not leaving is pretty weird.
Always bothers me that by talking down Lanius you’re basically guaranteeing the continued existence of the legion to the east, led by a monster. But out of NCR sight, out of NCR mind, right?
True, but the legion will inevitably fall without Caesar’s leadership, since Lanius really doesn’t give a shit about the Legion and only lives for battle
@@alfiemitchell3026 Old comment but I don’t think so, Lanius is more intelligent than the myths say. Graham doesn’t even know Lanius so you can’t just listen to him, Ulysses is probably blinded by myth like The NCR and Legion. Lucius basically tells a different account of Lanius (Lanius was a legionnaire at 12)… how could someone that young ambush legion patrols like Caesar says? Lanius comes off as not a military idiot who doesn’t understand supply and military tactics, and his retreat confirms he cares more about the Legion than Caesar says he does when he’s reinforcing his mythical status. Why would he be able to be convinced that a legion occupation of the Mojave would destroy the legion just like how it’s destroying the NCR if he was just a “savage general who only cares about Caesar?” Why would Caesar set him as a successor if he would the lead the Legion to ruins? I think Caesar made myths about Lanius only to have the NCR underestimate Lanius as an aggressive idiot who doesn’t understand smart military tactics. Lanius would do fine, he already understands how hard the conquest of the east was. Lanius almost lost because of the lack of supply, I don’t think he would allow that to happen again with the NCR.
“The Worst Courier” has ironically become your best series in my eyes. It shows the deep knowledge of this often-quirky game to accomplish a challenge that would seem impossible to most players. Good job, Jon
38:50 that was the best synchronized reloading I've ever seen. And yes i'm watching this in 2023 because its still one of the best fallout series on UA-cam.
I actually never actively thought about just how bad Cachino is aswell; it always seemed overshadowed by the other bosses and their ludicrous plan, so made me feel like I was doing the right thing by putting him in power. But yep, Gomorrah truly lives up to it's name. Besides Benny (who seems to be outcasted quickly by the others in charge), The Tops is kind of the only decent casino on The Strip.
Imagine preparing for war for years, then having a dude with pimp clothing and a fancy hat, high af on drugs, drunk on moonshine, and holding a magazine, walk up to you and somehow convince you to not do it. Hmmmm
23:17 "We didn't need to do that, by the way, Rex without a new brain would have been just fine." Actually Rex 'shuts down' forever in the ending if you don't fix his brain, so you probably do need to do that.
I laughed at "We can never visit the 188 again." MATN is afraid of Veronica's wrath. Guilt can be a powerful thing. Also, yeah. Poor Rey. I never buy Rey's brain because it's just cruel to do that.
Can I just say; I am astounded by the level of detail Obsidian put into this game. So many little things that make this world seem almost real. And they did it all in EIGHTEEN MONTHS! Eighteen!!! I can’t fathom it.
53:41 - Could I just comment on how absolutely beautiful the epilogue music is? I think it's Inon Zur's best piece since Party Camp in Dragon Age: Origins.
The most powerful weapon you can sneak into the casino is the fat man mine. Yes, you can make a mine with a mini nuke, using mad bomber, and you can take that into a casino. A LITERAL NUCLEAR EXPLOSIVE.....yeah being an explosive character is pure chaos and I love it xD
I remember one of my early games of New Vegas. I was doing a Legion run. So, I sneak into the Dam wearing NCR armor, sneak in, manage, barely, to assassinate him and get back out. I head back to the Legion camp....and then get killed the minute I get there because I forgot to take off the NCR armor.
Almost 3 PM on my birthday, alone in my bedroom, watching a guy role play as a moron named Useless Steve. What even is my life?, Edit: Thank you all VERY much!! It really means a lot to me!
Elite NCR Rangers: "We won't go into the Legate's camp with you, Useless Steve, it's a suicide mission!" Cannibal Johnson, an angsty 70-year old man: "YOLO!"
TMW jon mentions a quest, you have never seen pop up and thus have no clue what it does. After MANY playthroughs i just came to the conclusion that the BoS just always has to die. So the mention of "bring the BoS on side:" i didn't realize that was a thing. I had tried before, but they always were against my interests.
If they ever make a 2, they could use the ending most of us did, which was talk down Lanius. He would still be alive, and could be the next main villain again if they did
That was one of the most entertaining playthroughs of any game I've ever watched. Like many others here, I've lost count of the number of times I've played through FO:NV, but I was amazed at not just the amount of rarely-seen content you were able to get into this series, but also the incredible story you were able to tell that was hilarious and amazing in the most wacky, Fallout-esque of ways. This series is art. Bravo Jon, well done!
Thank you for another wonderful New Vegas series. Once again, I've learned of fascinating things in this game. Your wide knowledge and showcasing is very enjoyable.
oh man i'm so excited for old world blues, my fave DLC for any game to date, the only one i can think of that i even like that's close to it is the shivering isles from oblivion.
When you went for the moonshine, I was 100% convinced you'd purchase Dixon Whiskey. I'm certain it stacks with other alcohols. I only say that because I KNOW for certain that his jet stacks with jet and ultra-jet, so I assume... Stupid little fact, but a good one for optimization runs. ALSO: I never knew Rotface's hat was Eulogy Jones' hat.
Gotta love how the Legate conversation makes almost no sense. He just makes a 180 on his position & sounds like he was thinking that the whole time. I feel like the Rabbit Season, Duck Season bit would work on him.
Should have bought Sleepytyme from the Gun Runners and snuck that in for the (GRA) challenge to kill 10 casino types with an SMG, an easy 500 or 1000 (I forget which) XP. :) EDIT @31:30 - if you have New Vegas, in its Data\Sound\songs adionv directory, among all the stuff we're familiar with, you'll find "Cobwebs and Rainbows", "New Vegas Valley", "Streets of New Reno" and "Home On The Wastes" (the best of the lot), all by Sawyer. :)
Useless "doesn't get criticals" Steve in the final battle... "Excuse flipping me, I'm *busy!* " *Crits, legion man explodes and evaporates instantaneously*
The Moonshine in New Vegas is c/p of the Moonshine in Fallout 3, which only exists and can be created in Point Lookout. It gives the same stats as it does there, which is double charisma and strength boost, double INT down.
I don't remember what Veronica missions I completed in my last playthrough, so when I blew up the BoS bunker, she was _pissed_. HOWEVER, it was more of 'You do anything else and we're finished!' lecture.
I can't wait to see all the exploits next week, not to mention the unique options available with low Intelligence and all that jazz. This is definitely one of the more entertaining things I've seen on the tube.
You have to make the new character Useless Steve Jr. Useless steve turned out not to be so useless after saving new vegas that he managed to have a marage. But since he was so useless it fell apart after the birth of his first child.

@@DrakeAurum it's just lucky that Lanius really got down with that groove. He must have been under a lot of stress.
Heroes take many forms...

I'm just glad it didn't involve a Radscorpion
Don't forget also being drunk as a skunk on moonshine...
And that is the plot summary of my Useless Steve x Lanius fanfiction
After winning the battle of Hoover Dam, Useless Steve falls over, bonks his head and forgets everything again, and his first thought is to mess with a crashed sattalite.
That's probably what hit him in the head!

You watch Jon too!
Useless Steve didn't talk down the Legate: Lanius saw the ventilating mask and decided that social distancing was his priority.
I never knew that about Rotface. That's... brilliant. It really is. Kind of sweet too - the poor bastard has nothing else in the world and yet he goes off to buy a hat to make himself feel better.

If you're thinking about the cliffs with all the deathclaws, that spot also gives you the only set of enclave power armor
the unmarked deathclaw promontory on the eastern bank of the Colorado river. I can't remember if jon has ever shown it on the channel.
MrGhosta5 i think he has but i don't remember what series in
Thank you for another wonderful New Vegas series. Once again, I've learned of fascinating things in this game. Your wide knowledge and showcasing is very enjoyable.
I watched the whole series and i loved every episode this was very well done big thumbs up 👍
oh man i'm so excited for old world blues, my fave DLC for any game to date, the only one i can think of that i even like that's close to it is the shivering isles from oblivion.
I live old world blues too
I like this series because it shows so much parts of New Vegas you usualy don't see. So it's entertaining AND educational!
49:05 Best lines ever.
I’ve had a very bad day today, but seeing this video pop up on my feed today really made me happy. Thanks Jon!
When you went for the moonshine, I was 100% convinced you'd purchase Dixon Whiskey.
I'm certain it stacks with other alcohols.
I only say that because I KNOW for certain that his jet stacks with jet and ultra-jet, so I assume...
Stupid little fact, but a good one for optimization runs.
ALSO:
I never knew Rotface's hat was Eulogy Jones' hat.
The Enclave helping the NCR is the biggest 180 in the history of Fallout. They're the original enemies in the series lol
Gotta love how the Legate conversation makes almost no sense. He just makes a 180 on his position & sounds like he was thinking that the whole time. I feel like the Rabbit Season, Duck Season bit would work on him.
It's 2020 and you're still confusing sniper rifles with antimaterial rifles
And you're confusing anti-materiel rifles with antimaterial rifles, which don't exist.
@@jeffthepilot2894 fair enough.
@Mr Culec aaaww thanks my ass is dummy thicc
Jeff the Pilot Semantics: The comment
To Useless Steve they're all "head explode" rifles
It's weird hearing a narration of Goodsprings from General Tullius
Should have bought Sleepytyme from the Gun Runners and snuck that in for the (GRA) challenge to kill 10 casino types with an SMG, an easy 500 or 1000 (I forget which) XP. :)
EDIT @31:30 - if you have New Vegas, in its Data\Sound\songs
adionv directory, among all the stuff we're familiar with, you'll find "Cobwebs and Rainbows", "New Vegas Valley", "Streets of New Reno" and "Home On The Wastes" (the best of the lot), all by Sawyer. :)
Useless "doesn't get criticals" Steve in the final battle...
"Excuse flipping me, I'm *busy!* "
*Crits, legion man explodes and evaporates instantaneously*
The Moonshine in New Vegas is c/p of the Moonshine in Fallout 3, which only exists and can be created in Point Lookout. It gives the same stats as it does there, which is double charisma and strength boost, double INT down.
Rex Deserves to be happy, Rex is unhappy, Therefore dog needs new brain, Get Rex new brain, Now Rex is happy. Now we can continue. :D
I don't remember what Veronica missions I completed in my last playthrough, so when I blew up the BoS bunker, she was _pissed_. HOWEVER, it was more of 'You do anything else and we're finished!' lecture.
In your own words Jon, your absolutely cocking mad!
Another brilliant video from an amazing channel keep up the good work Jon!
I can't wait to see all the exploits next week, not to mention the unique options available with low Intelligence and all that jazz. This is definitely one of the more entertaining things I've seen on the tube.
Dammit Jon it's 5:30 am. good thing I just quit my current job and took a break. Love this series bud
You have to make the new character Useless Steve Jr. Useless steve turned out not to be so useless after saving new vegas that he managed to have a marage. But since he was so useless it fell apart after the birth of his first child.
Fallout New Vegas is GOOD
