Forum:Ghoulies

hey guys,with all the prospects new vegas holds and consdering the success of fallout 3 ive been thinking wouldnt it be cool if you could play as a ghoul?like,it could be a perk or something,or if you are exposed to enough radiatin under the right conditions,or something like that,maybe its just me but i thnk it would be pretty cool,although that would make gameplay easier because ghouls get healed by radiation,what do you guys think?

The idea is okay, I thought it, I've looked for this in every game after I started playing the first one. If you've played Oblivion, you can do that with a Vampire. Honestly, I think it would have good things, like you said, but it would also make unique dialogue, like people are more hateful to you, since a lot of people are Bigots.User:72.86.47.50 12:29, February 8, 2010 (UTC)

i never thought of the speech and attitude thing,that would be great,and maybe it could open up more quests?more ghoul helping,i know you did quite a bit in fallout 3 but i like ghouls,:D and maybe ghoul specific perks? like you can become an intelligent glowing one?

How about origin stories? I know its kind of overdone in RPG's but it adds to the awesomeness of being your own character. Of course its not too overdone and its an important element in some RPG's and it could work! I hate bigots! It would be cool to talk to people bigots treating you like crap. Havent you ever wanted to break into Tenpenny tower as an offended goul an own some bigots? I think it could work. Andromada101 21:19, February 8, 2010 (UTC

yeah,i love having a good backstory for characters,it gives them more depth and realism,lol,i love shooting tenpenny,bigot bastardo, maybe instead of the lawbringer perk you could get the bigotbasher,XD

oh,i just thought,wouldnt it be cool if there were elvis ghouls?or those dancing girls you see in vegas?it would be authentic,but kinda funny also :D

lol, ya! Andromada101 16:24, February 9, 2010 (UTC)

instead of being a perk, how bout wen your making your character like before victor digs you up you can choose human, ghoul or (hopefully xD) super muant and i agree with the race specific perks, and i would love to be a glowing one lol

hmmm,i don't think being a super mutant would work as it would overpower you and plus,smart super mutants are few and far between,anyway,anyone else think there should be a female ghoul companion,i always thought willow was kool,:)

That woould be interesting and I just got an idea, do you think anyone would be a bigot in New Vegas. Like I said earlier, gouls could be an origin story instead of a perk. They could also have race specific perks. Instead of a super mutant, you could be an FEV mutant, like Harold, you could be "special" like Harold. Andromada101 15:58, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

I also thought somethig like this could go well if they did it right ... you would have three races, Human , Ghoul , and Super Mutant .. Humans would usually be able to access most settlements with the right Karma/reputation, could talk to the bigot folks ,and could get certain perks related to them , But they would also be much weaker than super mutants and also be able to get radiation sickness ,though certain Human hating Ghouls and super mutants would want to kill you/not be very nice to ya .. Now ghouls would be healed when they passed advanced radiation level and wouldnt be affected by regular radiation sickness, Though some settlements wouldnt allow them entry and certain folks would be hostile to them , they would also miss out on certain perks that the others get, but get special perks of their own , and they would be resistant to even certain beneficial Chems ... super mutants would have a higher carry weight and would have certain Traits that make them break the strength and endurance limit and lower the intelligence and perception limits , but would be unable to enter most settlements except for a few Super mutant places and Human or ghoul freindlies settlements , they would be immune to radiation , but wouldnt get anything beneficial from it either ... it probably wouldnt work but it would make the mutants and ghouls have less of an advantage over humans ... probably not by lots though :P
