Few things in life are as annoying as dealing
with a broken bone or realizing that you're carrying too much stuff. So what would happen
to someone's spirit if they were forced to endure both not only at the same time, but
also forever? Can You Beat Fallout 4 While Completely Crippled And Over-Encumbered?
You're gonna notice on your screen a series of numbers that are increasing at an alarming
rate. Those of you with an eye for fashion will no doubt know that those represent time.
In order to understand the pain I put myself through over the course of a single 4 day
period, you need the timer. It will help keep things in perspective. With my character as
true to life as inhumanly possible, I immediately f**ked up by not being broken on every level.
The curtains don't yet match the drapes. Using a console command named after a joke I refuse
to let die, the condition of both my arms, both my legs, my chest, and head are all set
to 0. Thankfully by captain crunching my bones through the power of prayer, no amount of
medicine will heal me. I can still use Stimpaks and other healing items while my limbs remain
100% crippled at all times. In that batch command is also a command to set my carry
weight to 1. Unlike my New Vegas Godless Pacifist run that
I did on a whim, this one I did not. I thought I had a pretty good handle on things after
I assigned my points, but a series of misfortunes happened to land on my lap. I'm not ready
for that, you're not ready for that, let's come back to it. These are how I assigned
my SPECIAL points so I could get a few useful perks as early as possible. The big 3 perks
are Rooted, Aquaboy, and Idiot Savant. Rooted adds 25 to both energy and real damage resistance
when you're not moving, Aquaboy coats your body in plastic wrap to keep you from taking
radiation damage in various liquids, and Idiot Savant has been proven to be better at leveling
you up quickly than maxed out Intelligence. If you're wondering about Gordon, it's the
most slug-like name I could think of. Completely broken on every level now, a new bulletin
told us about some possible rain later, and I hobbled towards the Vault. See how fast
I'm moving indoors? That was the game f**king with me. This is me moving like someone who
cares they're about the become the dust that irritates my nose 200 years from now.
It's so slow that if you stop for any reason your guy will attempt to get into the dying
position. Based purely on guesswork because, I'd say it took me to double digit minutes
just to walk to the Vault. It was kind of them to hold off the end of the world for
me. I went down to the vault, got froze, thawed out, and the real game. See that guy in the
upper right? You're gonna love him whether you like it or not. He’s here and he’s
not going anywhere any time soon. Despite the cartoon guy moving faster than I do, I've
got a few tricks up my skirt. First, there's the life saver, the only reason I continued
this challenge in Fallout 4 after learning what comes later: the auto run button. Press
it and you walk automatically. Next there's the melee attack shortcut discovered first
by Cole Miners back in 2011. There is no special animation for a melee
attack when your entire body is held together with tape, so doing a melee attack in 3rd
person still makes you lunge forward at the regular human speed depending on the weapon.
It's not something I used very often because clicking every second to still move slower
than sh*t isn't worth it. Had it not been for the ramp, my escape would've been stopped
before it got above ground. I can't jump, that's a thing I can't do. Might as well get
through everything else. Let's see... I can't fast-travel until level 30 and in third person,
you can't reload a gun while moving, you also can't look around while reloading in 3rd person.
That animation speed-up doesn't work in first person which makes swapping back and forth
between melee weapons and guns and first and third person a f**king nightmare that I hope
you all experience before I force you to. Right about now, you're probably wondering
2 things: why isn't my vision playing with the fog machine, and why is there a fog machine
out here in the first place. I installed a few mods to make this more fun to look at,
I don't think there were any weird mods. If there were we'll handle it together. The other
is why my vision isn't getting blurry from my head being crippled.
It happened the first time, then never again. Nothing I did fix it and to be 95% honest,
I did this for real. I didn't speed up the game to get somewhere quicker. I walked from
Goodneighbor to Virgil's Cave while completely crippled and over-encumbered twice. If you
have a problem with the vision thing, smash that dislike button.
In this sea of tragedy, there's a little detail that made this more fun and exhausting than
I ever thought possible. Carry’s weight means nothing, I can loot every single object
I find. You might've expected me to create the ultimate world of wood in what will one
day be a historic site. I didn't go too crazy. By the time I left Sanctuary, I was all the
way up to Level 4 with Rooted, Lone Wanderer, and Idiot Savant as my perks.
My only objective was efficiency. Going straight to Nick Valentine will save hours. Animals
don’t count as a friend so he tagged along once I'd finished stealing everything in his
house, some rooftop sniper handled most of the little monsters trying to get into the
Museum, I took care of those who were inside, and met Preston Garvey, leader of the Minutemen,
who got me a sick deal on a scooter and a squirt gun. I'm a man, I'm not playing on
Very Easy, I'm playing on regular Easy. I assumed with my gun and pretty outfit Yoshi
wouldn't be an asshole about being woken up, but he was. With the Raiders wiped clean,
I had a frightening conversation with Preston, told him I'd see him back at Sanctuary later,
and continued towards Nick. My clown car pants came in handy in the diner when I bartered
with Trudy as payment for killing people in front of her establishment. A smidge closer
to Diamond City, I cleared out the Super K-Mart of its melons, stepped back outside just in
time to miss 8 out of 10 shots with a handgun, and went back on my word. I used a switchblade
to fly through the downtown commonwealth. I put a stop to that when the dust rolled
in. As someone who once forgot about a lunchbox full of oranges they left in their locker
over spring break, I know enough about orange dust to know it doesn't go any human hole.
This game wouldn't do me dirty. There wasn't a chance in hell they'd let Dogmeat take his
first swim lesson in this mild inconvenience. Hours into this adventure, arrived at Diamond
City, got a handful of face, sold everything I didn't need to the future of 7-Eleven delivery,
convinced Ellie her boss was worth 200 caps, and set off across town. As I was about to
leave I watched a man overcome by fear of the unknown gun down his own brother. Being
the good person that I try to pretend to be, I brought that brother back from the dead.
Now he's good as new and the family will be grateful. To me. I killed the Super Mutants
at the base of Trinity Tower because they were there and came to a realization. The
Lone Wanderer perk is overrated. I don't need it. I need a real man.
A big green man. As with just about everything in this challenge, fighting up Trinity Tower
was not all that difficult. Going against my instinct to run to cover was harder than
taking lives or watching Dogmeat get cut in half. With the combination of the effects
from all the perks I've mentioned, standing still and taking the punishment is a better
option than trying to get to cover. You're so slow that in the time it'll take to get
there you could've killed whoever you running from. With Strong now by my side for all of
time, I tried to piss off a very big bird, settled for a picture for the scrapbook, and
entered Park Street station. It turns out by thinking Strong would go after someone
who shoots him with a gun, I overestimated his intelligence.
Down in the subway, the 10mm Pistol I'd had since I crawled out of the coloring book.
Missing shot after shot after shot when you're in spitting distance is frustrating in the
most un-fun way. The only thing I had going for me was that I was shooting in the right
direction most of the time. I forgot to mention earlier that crouching isn't allowed, so sneaking
gets defenestrated immediately. With a monster and a companion by my side, I slowly returned
towards the surface of the vault. Skinny Malone had the idea in his head that he was gonna
stop me. They didn't have time to react, I gave them that as a gift.
Back at Diamond City, I explained where everything went wrong. Legends say it happened when a
special sloth got somewhere he wasn't supposed to.That same blood sloshes through my arteries
too. I broke into someone's home and had a brief moment of existential dread as I thought
I was gonna have to go back to the rocket station to get Dogmeat. I'm glad I didn't
have to do that. Probably wouldn't have ended well for anyone. The hound got the scent of
death from the cancer stick, I followed him for a time, a long time. It took me almost
45 minutes to walk from Diamond City to Fort Hagen by way of the Germany's most ferocious
beast. We're too far into the video and still have
too much ground to cover for me to spend more than a few words here. All I'm gonna say is
that I never plan on playing Fallout 4 without the Desperado Overhaul mod installed again.
It adds cactuses and a few other things, gives the game a more New Vegas vibe. This hallway
with multiple synths and a turret at one end and a me at the other is probably the best
example of how having broken arms can impact your ability to fire a gun. It's almost impressive
how many shots I missed. That being said, I deserved the pain of this for using a revolver.
It's like grabbing a fishing net to catch bugs. Finally at Kellogg, yours truly had
just the thing to wipe him from existence. One half jet, one half psycho, one half a
minigun, and one half a roll of gauze was all it took to be deconstructed by my murderer.
The barrel was practically down his throat, I still missed half my shots., but justice
prevailed, another beautiful angel went through the stroggification process, the Brotherhood
arrived in the Commonwealth, and I spent the next 40 minutes walking back to Diamond City.
The tide tucked its tail between its legs and ran back into the sea about half way back
to home base. I ran into the star of the greatest video of all time on the road and as a collector
of all things that exist, I had plenty of objects to trade for Spray n Pray, a Legendary
submachine gun that does explosive damage with every shot. I will admit that this new toy made Fallout
4 significantly easier. However, the accuracy problem remains the same, as does literally
everything else. At level 11 I took Rad Resistance to instantly
get +10 radiation resistance at all times, Nickle and flatface pointed me towards Doctor
Amari in Goodneighbor, I killed Swan because I'm the only abomination allowed to roam these
streets, found Goodneighbor, had a normal conversation with the guy at the gate, picked
up a boobing head in the hotel to earn a cool 5% more experience for the rest of time, learned
through Reader Rabbit Kellogg Edition that Virgil, an escaped Institute science man,
can help me get inside, and so began my quest coast of the great green sea.
This was what I was dreading from the moment the 30% decided to f**k me. Unlike Fallout
3, there are no major skips that I can pull off. Unlike Fallout New Vegas, I cannot fly
through the air with a revolver. Let this serve as a lesson to the youth. If you're
not looking forward to something, dive in head first and assume everything will work
out. You're the main character of your life you'll be fine.
I put a good amount of thought into getting to Virgil's Cave. Simply surviving the trip
isn't enough, I need to be able to get back out of the Glowing Sea. Running out of supplies
after 45 minutes is not an option. To that end, I did no addition planning whatsoever.
The odds were decent that I had enough supplies to last until I died. 35 minutes after I left
Kellogg's head, I hit the edge of the Glowing Sea. Wasn't too long after that a Deathclaw
ripped my arm off. Ya boi got himself stuck by a bridge with a Deathclaw on each side.
A lesser man would've ran and I too would've ran if I knew how to run. Almost an hour after
I set sail, I hit Virgil's Cave, convinced him to help me get inside the Institute, and
headed back to Diamond City. What I experienced was the Fallout 4 equivalent of spending 45
minutes driving your kids to the water park, letting them get them get one t-shirt that
they have to share, then going straight home. Does that sound sad? It should. The added
pressure of only having 3 Rad-X and 10 Radaway remaining helped ever so slightly. You're
not missing anything by me skipping back to Carbon Town. For those of you who didn't go
to a catholic high school like I did, that was a science joke.
To take this even deeper, what I just said was a lie. I wasn't going back Diamond City,
the courser was smart enough to go to the last place I'd look for him, the greenest
building in the land. Let's go over my perks real quick, I wanna make sure we're all on
the same page: Lucky Looter Rank 1 and 2, Lone Wanderer rank 1, Idiot Savant rank 1
and 2, Aquaboy and Rad Lad rank 1,Toughness rank 1 and 2, and Rooted rank 1. Despite only
being Level 13, ammo, damage, healing, these concepts are beginning to crumble. They no
longer mean what they once did. Assuming, because there is no reason not to, that I
don't miss any shots, it's not uncommon to find more ammo on a Gunner than it cost to
euthanize him. I should've pointed out sooner, probably, that somewhere along the way I set
the difficulty up to Hard. I'm sure you've noticed that some enemies that could be killed
in 2-3 shots in other videos are taking far more damage.
Atop the tower, I found the Courser. Lacking a missile launcher, the 3rd best choice was
to lay down a dozen mines. Safety in numbers as they say. My gun tickled the make-believe
man, I took shelter and entered the free cam to watch Strong try to do a job for a real
man. Moments later, Strong died, the Courser's death satisfied me greatly, I verified the
sharpness of my blade, went back to Goodneighbor, sold a lotta garbage to my Only Fan, Amari
said there was a train convention down in the church's basement, and I went to see for
myself. It was nothing more than a sick joke, some low-life's idea of a fun prank, like
spending 8 years telling your audience you've got a twin brother, as if God would actually
make 2 of me. With the fish and chips fresh out of the microwave,
I had the ultimate decision to make. The ripples of which side of the fraction i land on will
be felt (William B. Felt) throughout the rest of my life. Someone who wasn't with the Railroad
lied to me about what the Railroad was, so the Railroad is out. I can't fast-travel until
Level 30, I wouldn't be able to get back into the Institute after I leave the first time.
The Minutemen have at least 8 missions that can send you just about anywhere on the map,
which sounds traumatizing. That leaves the Brotherhood. Look, I'm already tied to the
chair, at this point I'm just negotiating which teeth I can live without.
If nothing else, I'd get to see how long I could keep Strong as a companion while siding
with the Brotherhood of Steel who's entire existence is based around wiping out mutants.
Regardless of which team got the handicap of me joining them, I still had to get the
chip decoded. The first step in helping the Brotherhood isn't completing the First Step
quest. It's saving them from all of us future Kirby Air Ride fans who went feral waiting
for a sequel. Inside Arcjet I saw first-hand how much laser ammo I had, made a few weapon
modifications, found the Junk Jet, sparked a fire under someone's ass and hit the dead
body jackpot. Each Synth has ammo and each gun has more. It's a delight. You'd think
the Junk Jet would be God-tier in this playthrough, but it's too annoying to use in general and
I wasn’t interested in dealing with bullet drop. Had I came through Arcjet earlier, I
probably wouldve used it. Same goes for the gun I got from Buzz. Back at station, Danse
said the king wanted to speak to me up in his balloon, so I climbed inside the bird
and flew through the sky. The Brotherhood's got a secret weapon, in addition to the new
helmet, that will save me from myself. The only thing standing between me and that
reward is a Super Mutant Behemoth. On my tool belt were a whole bunch of ways I could've
handled that little man. I used the free gun attached to the Vertibird to kill it. The
bullet casings littering the ground will one day grow into bullet trees. In a way I'm helping
the planet. Baby’s first nuclear ordinance was found inside locked office at the Fort,
I cleaned up what I could in the basement, talked to Danse about his past, and was lost
because there is no way to get back up to the Prydwen without fast traveling. Before
giving up, I put my education to use for the last time by building my way up to the blimp.
I got close, closer than any timeline’s Mitten Squad. A Google informed me that there’s
a transportation point on one of the landing pads, his highness gave me my orders, and
I was going back to the ends of the Earth. The power of flight is my secret weapon. With
the Brotherhood’s Vertibird signal grenades, I can summon an aircraft to fly me anywhere
on the planet. Or so I thought. This most likely wasn’t the first time I’ve flown
this way, but I do it so infrequently that I didn’t know you can only fly to locations
you’ve discovered. The immense payoff of being able to fly right to Virgil’s Cave
in a matter of minutes after it taking almost 2 hours to get there and back was almost worth
this entire playthrough. Accidentally finding myself in Skyrim wasn’t a bad experience
either. As Lydia, I’ve never been more prepared to construct the teleportation play-set. The
half clown didn’t have time to get in my way. Maxson ordered me to ensure Madison Li
joins the Brotherhood at any cost, the clown gave me her nose, I got blinked inside, either
the drugs or something more powerful than myself made the elevator ride invigorating,
found Father, was taken aback by what walked through those doors, and I got to work. Madison
Li is an option objective as of right now. I’m carrying somewhere around 1500 pounds
of stuff, but that’s not enough. The machines sinning up the air down in the Institute are
more plastic than soul, by killing them all I can potentially weigh myself all the way
down to the center of the earth. True to life, the hard part came after the screaming and
crying stopped, I had to deal with after effects of drugs I took and the mess I made. Everyone
was dead, I began my journey to the surface, and committed crimes against humanity on a
scale that shocked nobody. You knew this was coming. I didn’t count all the creatures
I killed in the Institute. After I loaded into purgatory even more were waiting for
me. I looted them all, every last one of them. I had 137 Institute Pistols and more than
100 of most main Synth armor pieces. I did good.
God disagreed, Strong and I that’s right he’s still here, flew back to the Prydwen,
I told Danse the truth, bought everything I wanted as a youth but was told I couldn’t
have, and went through a series of unexpected failures. A doctor Scara is now a Brotherhood
of Steel scientist, I just have to find her and tell her. She’s hiding out in the bowling
alley, I knew that ahead of time, so I went as close as the bird would take me, dropped
out into a f**king war zone, dreamed I was playing Fallout 4: New Vegas, agreed with
the robot that it was okay if I looked around, and the doctor isn’t here yet. I flew back
to Diamond City to find the Doctor, ended up in the basement getting plastic surgery,
unfortunately they can’t put my eyes on the side of my head like a fish, the waypoint
moved when I told it to, Mitten Squad Goes Bowling: The Sequel, and we’re back on track.
Liberty Prime is gonna pop out of the Prydwen like a hamster in a birthday cake above the
Institute later, that’s the surprise, but his legs need magnets. I still thank the Lord
to this day that this quest was boring as heck, because afterwards the future of all
Fallout 4 challenges changes. I learned about Wire Fences. You can spam them in place without
moving. My treehouse prevented me from going crazy with it, one day I’ll travel to Thrillville
and take this game Off The Rails. Anyway you know where I’m going now? Sentinel Site.
You won’t believe me now, but this was worse than the first trip tp the Glowing Sea. I
could tell it was gonna go well as soon as I entered the bird. Step 1. I can’t go to
the Sentinel Site. So I skipped to Step 3 which is going to the Sentinel Site by way
of the Crater of Atom. I walked through hell, I walked through radiation,
I walked through wind and rain to secure these nukes. Legendary Ghouls and Mole People guarded
the entrance to the heart of the Sentinel. I pushed through them all, got to the door,
and couldn’t get inside because it was blocked off. I didn’t talk to Scribe Haylen yet.
This entire game is a trick to make me feel like I’m contributing. She was supposed
to put the nukes down there after I talk to her. I only wasted like half an hour. I couldn’t
done some genie magic and console commanded the quest to fix me. You’re all lucky that
the 3rd half of the 10th season of the Walking Dead was so comically bad that I didn’t
mind wasting a little more time doing this again. Atom’s Wrath fizzled out, I secured
the objective, waited for the bus to come pick me up, flew home, and took a little detour.
I wanted to see if I could kill the star of an overrated children’s movie.
Strong is not the man I thought he wasn’t. I told the Elder that Danse is synth trash
and needs to be wiped out for being different, Strong agreed with that statement. Haylen
made up for harming my life earlier by luring me down to the airborne basement for a pep
talk and fat man ammo. I had a plan for how to deal with Danse in a safe and Christianly
manner. Obviously he doesn’t leave this outpost, I’ll sneeze this entire cave system
down around us before he does. I deployed a series of mines, laid a trap that he couldn’t
possibly miss, talked him into facing the consequences for being born, f**ker didn’t
set off the mines. I ended him the old fashioned way, mixed in some futuristic torment by brining
him back to life just to kill him again, tried to do it a 3rd time but that crashed the game.
What comes next will not be for the faint of heart. I had to report back to the Prydwen,
so waiting at the outpost to allow the gunman restock his closet would benefit me very much.
I was more interested in signal grenades than anything else. Going out with an odd number
is a one-way ticket to an unpleasant evening. Before heading to Mass Fusion, there was one
small matter to attend to. I’ve been neglecting the Railroad. Once I was in the Church, I
payed no mind to labels, I didn’t care who was on who’s side, I shot at everything
that moved. Even got a new collar bone from a Legendary friendly. The heart of the Railroad
Headquarters was a funny substance-fueled explosive haze that went off without a hitch.
Strong hasn’t been faring too well lately. I noticed that every time we’re in the sky
he’s down on one knee, he could be injured now and I wouldn’t know it. PAM didn’t
fight back, she had a run of bad luck, and now we’re going to Mass Fusion.
To ensure my survival, I told Ingram to stay behind. Didn’t want her slowing down our
bird. As I’m still playing on hard, have put no points into Heavy Gunner to make the
Mini-Gun better, and am about as inaccurate as I could ever be, the Mini Gun was worthless.
I used a missile Launcher all along the elevator to handle the synth machines, I’m one part
immovable object, one part unstoppable force, and one part hypocrite, but that’s not what
you wanna know about. You wanna know about the Assaultrons and Sentry Bot. I’ve known
since before you were born that these f**ks would one day try to kill me, but what I didn’t
expect that my death would come from me trying to kill them while they were still asleep.
As for the Radiation, it wasn’t the deadliest thing in the room. I didn’t know turrets
were in there before this playthrough, I’m never in there long enough for them to burrow
down from the surface to reach me. With the Rad X and Radiation perks, the radiation was
a minor annoyance at worst. The Sentry Bot used Strong as a distraction just as I intended,
despite having like 45 Stimpaks I still struggled to decide what to eat to heal myself, I learned
the hard way that this game is still on hard, escaped Mass Fusion, flew back to the airport,
and let the dawn of the real game begin. If you’ve made it this far into the video,
first of all, congratulations. Second, you’re aware of my feelings in general towards Liberty
Prime. He sucks. I couldn’t kill anything because I couldn’t keep up with Liberty
Prime. That would’ve been a good thing had he not gotten flustered with his coordinates.
That was fun. Back in time, he learned his lesson, I took a friendly’s gun, we arrived
at CIT Ruins, the Iron Monster blew a hole in the Earth, I fell in, and began the end.
If you’re wondering, Strong doesn’t really care what’s going on and neither does the
game. Maxon, Ingram, and all of star command stayed by my side as we mowed down my son’s
family. Father had one last trick up his sleeve. he locked all the doors. The nutty professor
unlocked the elevator for me, I rode up to face my future, and legitimately forgot that
I already killed Father. I had this whole thing planned, I was gonna kill him with Kellogg’s
Pistol it was gonna be great. This is what he would’ve seen. Imagine that’s the last
thing you see before you die. What a way to go out.
I pumped myself full of every drink, chem, beverage, and drink I had just before entering
the reactor chamber, rigged the generator to explode, teleported to safety, and with
Strong still by my side, I beat Fallout 4 whole completely crippled and over-encumbered.
