I just beat New Vegas, AMA?

Was the former related to killing the Mojave Brotherhood? Did you eat Boone in the Beyond the Beef quest?

Yes, when we went to the Hidden Valley Bunker and I attacked the Brotherhood she wanted nothing to do with me after that so I killed her with the Gauss Rifle (no loyalty, no life). As for Boone, I didn't eat him because I didn't have the Cannibal Perk.

Cool. What did you think of the three main factions, NCR, House, and Legion? Did you have a favorite smaller faction? Like the Khans, Boomers, or Followers?

NCR: While they do stand for a peaceful West Coast, which is something I agree with but the way that Oliver and his men carry out things (imposing their will on peaceful settlements, not allowing others to trade without their consent, etc). They changed so much from how they were back in Fallout 2 and I felt that I had to step up and take it for myself. I did tread on the Bear and I felt good while doing it.

House: What can I say? The man was a visionary. He single handedly defended The Strip from 56 warheads and turned it into a place where someone could kick their feet up and rest easily knowing that the Securitrons will protect them (especially with the upgrades). However, House wanted total control of a wasteland that was not his to begin with. It belonged to the people. But, the wasteland seemed pleased with his presence as long as no damage was being done. When I gave him the Platinum Chip and he upgraded the Securitrons into those "murder bots", I saw what he was doing. He wanted to jump into a war that would tear the Strip apart. So I did what I had to do and bludgeoned him to death with Nephi's Driver. But I couldn't help but feel slightly bad afterwards.

Legion: They were a disciplined bunch, listened to orders and killed with quick efficiency. They were lead by a merciless man who did things because he felt as though he would be the one to lead his Legion to victory for the glory of Mars. They united the 86 wandering tribes of the Mojave and formed the largest opposing force that the NCR had seen in years. Admittedly, I commend them for that, because without all those tribes under one banner who knows what they could have done. But, they were also a bunch of rapists, slavers and murderers. Nothing was out of the question when it came to conquering. Without me putting a stop to it, they would have grown and grown until all would bow down to Caesar. I told Lanius that conquering the Mojave would lead to his Legion falling on hardships that they had never seen before and after hearing my words he left, but he promised me that someday we shall meet again on the battlefield. I welcome him.

Favorite Small Faction: The Kings. 'nuff said.
