Summary
A dedicated gamer online has shown off their complete pacifist run ofFallout: New Vegas, after completing the game without killing a single NPC.Fallout: New Vegasis renowned for how much choice it offers players, but it’s almost hard to believe that someone could finish it without killing anyone.
InFallout: New Vegas, choice is everything. Players are making decisions that will affect the rest of the game from the very beginning when waking up in Doc Mitchell’s house. Plenty ofchoices affect theFallout: New Vegasendingthat players receive, too. While the other games in theFalloutseries are also considered RPGs, there’s nothing quite like what’s on offer here, and that’s exactly why players are still playing through the game in different ways, well over a decade since it was first launched.
Redditor ninni113 shared the stats from their pacifist run ofFallout: New Vegas, revealing a level 46 character who had completed 110 quests in the game, all without killing a single person or creature. Very fewRPGs actually support pacifist runsin their entirety, and it’s great to see thatFallout: New Vegasis one of them, even if it isn’t an easy task by any stretch of the imagination, with this taking around 80 hours, according to the player.
Pacifist Run in Fallout: New Vegas
While sharing their experience with the run, ninni113 had one main point, stating, “Pro gamer tip: don’t do this.” According to the player, some of themost frustratingFallout: New Vegasqueststo complete were Come Fly With Me, Beyond the Beef, and Hard Luck Blues, with the final one even needing to be abandoned, as it seemed impossible. No companions were used either, as their kills count toward the player’s numbers, making this a true pacifist run of the game.
WhileFallout: New Vegaswill always exist to go back and revisit, right now, another Obsidian-developedFalloutgame seems extremely unlikely at this point. There are plenty ofreasons Obsidian should make anotherFalloutgame, butAvowedandThe Outer Worlds 2both being in development would potentially stretch the studio too thin if anything else was added to the slate right now. As for the wider franchise itself, the upcomingFalloutTV show is a great way to keep the series in the public eye until Bethesda decides to develop another mainline game, and it’ll be interesting to see where it stands among other video game TV adaptations.
