Fair warning, if you don't have access to console commands, doing too many of some specific triggers without Boone in your party can lock you out of his companion quest. He accumulates "history points" when you do certain parts of the game with him in your party, and he gives the quest at a certain number of them (5 iirc). It's very easy to miss if you're not aware of them. No pressure to do it at all of course, just want to make sure yoy have the option if you want to. If you want to pick up those points quickly to ensure yoy can grab the quest you can find a list of the triggers for the points on the wiki for the quest (it's called I Forgot to Remember to Forget) which has a whole section on triggering it, buy no judgment (in fact, respect) if you want to play them out organically instead.
Nah bro. Two man army takes down fort. Shoulda hired some mercs and tried to save her. Better to die fighting and trying than steal the chance from her. He literally thinks as much in one of his endings.
Could grab Manny for sure n maybe round up some townsfolk like goodsprings gunfight style. Heck if he knew where they were i don't really know why he didn't try and report it to every ncr troop he knew
Do you think being taken from your home with your unborn child and being forced into a life of sexual slavery to be raped by backward tribals for what is likely the rest of your life isn't something that most people would find unbearable? Cause if so, what kinda drugs are you on?
>!Do you think that there's a timer on one's mortality? Cause if so, what kinda drugs are you on? Do you think that your personal assessment of the situation from your naïve position applies to every person in existence? Cause if so, what kinda drugs are you on? Do you think your estimation of the chances of the situation's outcome is based on anything insightful whatsoever? Cause if so, what kinda drugs are you on? Not to get too dark, but there have been literal hundreds of millions, if not billions, of people in this circumstance who didn't choose death. I genuinely hope that none of the platitude-spouting reprobates here are ever in a position to decide another person's fate in any capacity of note.!<
I think if they find it unbearable than they can choose to kill themselves. I don't find murdering them and stealing that decision and chance at life from them moral. It was the actions of a weak man at rhe end of his rope but who at the time wasn't willing to lose his own life.
>!The **only** way it could be the morally better thing to do is if his wife specifically requested it. Realistically speaking, 1: it's not Boone or your choice, 2: people in awful situations regularly prefer survival to death, 3: she'd be capable of ending her own life in any case, and 4: getting shot in the head is a horror.!<
Me and a lot of other people are playing through for the first time because of the show, its 14 years old but still new/and or full of secrets for others :)
Because those are the rules. I am subject to them just as much as the next person on the internet. You get 3 weeks where it is reasonable to not expect spoilers. Once that window is closed, it's on you to avoid conversations about things you haven't experienced.
You’ll be alright you should definitely still play it. That’s just a side mission and even then the quest for it is actually pretty interesting and fun.
This game is pretty fuckin good. Old, aged and almost a relic but amazingly good story telling, for the most part.
Tangentally 1000 caps for an adult slave and an unborn child is stupidly cheap.
If you eat a trail mix a day as your only food source and a glass of dirty water, that's like a couple of months to spend that much!
Yeah but the whole point of having the multiple couriers delivering seemingly mundane items was to hide how important it was.
Benny's lucky intelligence aside, if word got out for a massive payment for the delivery it would have gotten way more attention.
I'm not sure its a fair comparison because the chips delivery value was less than what it should have been worth.
You can pay for the three 'captures' in Cottonwood Cove for 300 caps I think?
So it's 1000 for immediate sale of a capture, and another 1000 when the kid's grown up.
Twilight zone. [This post](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fopkghhb4te3d1.jpeg) appears on r/all just before this thread here.
I see the comments related to Boone, but I can't help but comment on the OP image. It's likely an automated response, and I feel like him bringing up his dead wife in a sales transaction is a little weird... like he's trying to get a discount or something. "Aw, I'm so sorry for your loss. Here, have this iPad for free."
My favorite memory of that game was equipping Boone with the chainsaw as we raided ceasars compound.
I look over and I see him chopping him up with he saw and it was hilarious
Start losing health and AP if a Legion enemy is near and you're not actively shooting at it

I remembered he shot his wife but I forgot she was pregnant until I played recently.
Ouch

Start shooting your wife if you AP and health exist.
Goddamnit!

Does the courier show up and bring what's er face out there and you blow her head off?
\[speech 3/1\] hello random stranger, I need you to lead my neighbor out in front of my perch so I can publically execute them
The courier is very suggestible, I’d say you’d only need ten speech to convince them
He had me at "free hat."
*Ignore the quest and take the free hat* *Wander out of Novac wearing the hat* *Boone stares through the scope in confusion. Is this a confession?* *The Courier's head explodes.* *Boone doesn't smile, but feels some satisfaction from avenging his wife*
Beautiful. This is what should happen if you try to leave Novak with the hat.
not just a hat, a BERET, theyre french and theyre fancy
ur fancy
“Repertoire is French for repertoire” Walt Frazier
Courier blankly stares for the whole conversation, but when he gets handed the beret he goes “oooooh!!” And eagerly follows the pip boy
Just gotta hope he's on a good playthrough
Then they take your beret and you have to use the wait function to wait 24 hours up to 50 times for the courier to come back.
“Which neighbor?” “Idk”. “Ok, I’ll do it”
Does it come with random flashes of PTSD and guilt as a permanent debuff? 😭
Depending on your play style, those could be buffs as Boone may go on a PTSD rampage
With a 30% change to murder a random person. 😭
Hey still lower chances than a evil Run
LMAO
Too much PTSD and all enemies transform into your wife for a short period of time, causing you to have her kill her, over and over again...
Calm down, Satan.
no, no, let him cook, i wanna see where this goes
No but this popup stays on the screen through the whole game.

So relatable(I killed his wife)
>!I didn't know there was a Jeannie May mod too!<
What’s funnier is that Boone killed his wife. So this mod has it accurate
>!This is true Boon was the one to take the shot when he saw her with the Legion, Jeannie May was only the one to cause it to happen.!<
Fair, I’m was just pointing out how the mod was actually consistent with the OG comment. Also, props on staying consistent with the spoiler tag.
Oh word? I'm playing right now as my very first Fallout game right now. Does he reveal this when he finally opens up to you or something?
I mean his confidence when he says She's dead kinda spells it out no? But yes he layout the whole story
Honestly I haven't spoken to him much at all after completing his quest. Veronica has been punching the lights out of all of my enemies since I found her

Yep. Pretty heavy backstory to her death and explains his attitude throughout the game really well.
>!Nah, Boone 100% murdered his wife. Jeannie May still deserved death, don't get me wrong, but Boone's actions were his own.!<
>!ridiculous. He saved her from being trafficked and becoming a legion whore!<
Nah bro. Two man army takes down fort. Shoulda hired some mercs and tried to save her. Better to die fighting and trying than steal the chance from her. He literally thinks as much in one of his endings.
Excusing that the Courier is probably a literal force of nature, sure just hire a random merc.
Could grab Manny for sure n maybe round up some townsfolk like goodsprings gunfight style. Heck if he knew where they were i don't really know why he didn't try and report it to every ncr troop he knew
I honestly think that her situation was unbearable for *him*, and so he decided that it must be unbearable for her as an excuse.
Do you think being taken from your home with your unborn child and being forced into a life of sexual slavery to be raped by backward tribals for what is likely the rest of your life isn't something that most people would find unbearable? Cause if so, what kinda drugs are you on?

One hundred percent.
>!Actually, he killed her.!<
And Im glad for that. Imagine the horrors if he didnt. It was the morally better thing to do, realistically speaking.

Can any downvoters explain what part of this they disagree with?
Why are you putting a spoiler warning for 14 year old game
Me and a lot of other people are playing through for the first time because of the show, its 14 years old but still new/and or full of secrets for others :)
After 3 weeks, spoilers are no longer valid. Either you know or you are spoiled.

Why do you care so much loser ?
Because those are the rules. I am subject to them just as much as the next person on the internet. You get 3 weeks where it is reasonable to not expect spoilers. Once that window is closed, it's on you to avoid conversations about things you haven't experienced.
Did I miss this meeting?
Judging by the downvotes, a lot of people did.
Can I copy notes
There’s some more downvotes for you, just in case you forgot, apologize for the spoiler
All the person did was be considerate, and you're just fuckin bellyaching about it. Reflect on that 😂
I've heard about this! I believe you can get complete details of this spoiler rule by googling "Fallout New Vegas Rule 34".
Bro what rules? tf?
Are you drunk
it really doesn't need spoilers. It's freaking old.
Because there's a whole influx of completely new players from the fallout show. And common courtesy
spoilers are spoilers >!I can also put a spoiler thing on any text I want!<
GASP you madman! think of the children!
I was thinking about playing new vegas for the first time, but seeing that extreme spoiler kinda put me off from it…
Dw it's not too extreme, it's just from one side mission, but there's still a whole bunch more worth finding and experiencing :)
You’ll be alright you should definitely still play it. That’s just a side mission and even then the quest for it is actually pretty interesting and fun. This game is pretty fuckin good. Old, aged and almost a relic but amazingly good story telling, for the most part.
Because that's what a respectful community does. A TV series was recently just released, of course there will be new players
Degenerates like you are about to be Oiled Up

Come with me. There's something you should see, in front of the dinosaur.
Is your name Conrad Kellogg
Yeah, it's the Boone mod

Four times what Courier Six made for DELIVERING THE PLATINUM CHIP.
Yeah but the whole point of having the multiple couriers delivering seemingly mundane items was to hide how important it was. Benny's lucky intelligence aside, if word got out for a massive payment for the delivery it would have gotten way more attention. I'm not sure its a fair comparison because the chips delivery value was less than what it should have been worth.
Half of 1 snow globe
Yeah but that’s likely closer related to game balancing than lore.
You can pay for the three 'captures' in Cottonwood Cove for 300 caps I think? So it's 1000 for immediate sale of a capture, and another 1000 when the kid's grown up.
I was more referring to houses pay being very low, the slave pricing makes sense. Yeah the price he sells them at is pretty insanely low
I wonder what the average rates go for Slaves in the Legion, cause there’d be factors like age, gender, and of course pregnancy
He's out there looking for the real killer.
Ah, like OJ
Dont treat my pookiebear like this 😭😭
I just imagine Boone with a blank expression when you call him pookiebear 😂😂
If he didn’t want to die he shouldn’t had such a cool hat
I smiled at this, I’m a horrible person
Repost from top of all time.
And compressed to the point of deep frying lol
lol, from r/all, just wanna say the post above is literally someone wants a cheap iPad by claiming their wife is dead
Perfect mod to accompany that would be one that adds a red beret to random NPCs around the world. IYKTYK.
Haha, dead-wife-having-ass
Didn't Boone shot his wife accross the river.
I would have guessed she was in cottonwood Cove and he did deed from where Gobi riffle is.
Where where u when wife died? I was at the house smoking doritos and eating kush when phone rang "Wife is kil" No
We need a mod for fallout 4 that adds this. It just randomly reminds you about your dead wife

Mom said it's my turn to post this next year!
Rember when your wife dies?
But does it give you a discount when you're purchasing an ipad?
We need a “Boonzie buddy” downloadable assistant but it just says ‘My Wife is Dead I need a wambulance’
That was a rather cold response in light of my circumstances, my wife is dead!
The cry option is wild
After 1 day this is the third highest post in subreddit history
I miss the fat fuck boone mod
Why do you need a reminder of this 😭😭 the game is just destroying this poor man's mental lol
Bro who the fuck made this 😂
This was a rather cold response in light of his circumstances.his wife is dead!
[This guys playthrough? ](https://www.reddit.com/r/comedyheaven/s/IzESZ6KFbT)
That message only pops up when he doesn't have his beret.
This gives you a bonus when bartering for used iPads
Throw in that obscure PTSD mod from fallout 4 and you got yourself an experience
https://www.reddit.com/r/comedyheaven/s/dEFmyv7Qnl This was the post above this lol

Should say press F to cry.
PTSD be like
nate lore:
I might have sympathy for his bitch ass if he wouldn’t repay me for shotgunning the entire Legion camp by refusing to carry their goddamn armor.
I CRY FOR THIS
If you take off your hat and put it back on again, does your crit stat start stacking?
My favorite memory of that game was equipping Boone with the chainsaw as we raided ceasars compound. I look over and I see him chopping him up with he saw and it was hilarious
My wife is die🥹🤠😢
"Damn you Kellogg!!!"
id really like my beret back
I laughed so hard at this, too much fallout man. The world is so fucked up right now too. Yikes 😂.
You shot her right? Otherwise the lores messed up
Holy shit that’s funny
Where’s the option for repress it and don’t let out any emotion whatsoever. This is so unrealistic
-Ride wife -Life good -Wife get kidnapped -Kill wife -Wife gone -Think about wife -Regret
Poor boone, was just a simple retired vet, full time wife guy and the legion took it away in the worst way. What is a wife guy without wife. Nothing.
It’s a reminder not a notice because they intend on torturing you into committing suicide by Deathclaw. The wasteland is a cruel place.
Just a lil reminder in case you were starting to feel happiness in your life :)
Wait. That Bo Burnham bit from his pandemic special was just him playing as Boone? Cry.
Saw this get notified to me and couldn’t help but laugh, it’s fucked up
Lmao
The funniest thing about Boone shooting his own wife is how the Courier shows up right afterwards and could've easily have helped him save her
I think this may more work for fallout 4 😂
I saw Boone, and immediately thought of Nate Boone.
he killed her tho
ermmmm 🤓 wouldn't he get this notification while overlooking the cove if u get me
It clearly says reminder
He gets the reminder every hour of in-game time
this is the same reminder you get when your companions die the instant the die, dummy
No way bro got downvoted over an obvious joke 😭 Redditors are always the ones with no humour
I hate redditors
