I was going to do a survival mode guy but now they're working on survival mode, I am SO INTO my new character. I'm only 10 levels in but it's going to be SUCH FUN!
Omar (as in from The Wire) !!!!!!!!!
Omar: "Man has to have a code"
My plan: Pick up Cait for awhile for her skills, Romance MacCready (but leave him at home most of the time), Steal Stuff. Don't Care about Factions at ALL. Join no one unless you need something. Later in game, build a nice secret and solo homestead and then scoot off on my own. That's the depth of the roleplay, no canon at all - mostly it's about amusing myself with the look and style and trying to work the "urban guerilla with high charisma" into F4. I might eventually end up with Hancock or just chill with him in Goodneighbor as much as possible.
Definitely need an Armored Bathrobe and a Box of Sugar Bombs for doing Downtown Boston. Already have a place at Hangman's Alley, didn't even go to Sanctuary.
Favorite moment so far? Walked right into the Museum of Freedom and grabbed the Perception Bobblehead and walked right out without talking to anyone. It was AWESOME!!! Preston says "Really, you're just going to walk right on by and not say anything?" and I said, to the screen, "That's about the size of it" and dropped the laser musket on the ground and left.
Main Weapons I plan to use: Fully Auto Combat Shotgun (Justice would be a great one), The Gainer (Hand Cannon required), Combat Knife (prob Pickman), Spray and Pray, and eventually I might grab some kind of energy based weapon but I don't know yet?
Build so far focusing on: Fast, Close quarter battle but not melee. HIGH luck, high agility, strength - I've got good charisma and will be putting into that in order to get intimidate. Endurance is my goal through armor early on.
Still trying to figure out all the build and perks for Omar, if Charisma checks were a greater part of the game, it would be all about that, but for now: OMAR COMIN'!
