Can I Beat Fallout New Vegas As The Demoman From TF2? 

Ideas for Soldier: Use Red Glare, missile laucher, grenades (eqaulizer taunt), same shotguns as Heavy, laser pistol, shovel, old world glory, Tesla Cannon, Katana. Must only consume dirty water (no purified water) Low intelligence Side with NCR and get Enclave remnants to help you. Nuke Legion in the end of Lonesome road.

As a wise man once said: "Yyyeerraarrsesssarsdaandimthgrasssmannpunkyeeeyahhavint"

"I've hidden the dynamite, its safer that way." “ALLLLL OF YOUUUU I - *burp* - I- I love you maaaan *burp* - 'll you - better than me *buuuuurp*.” "The TNT is right there, son."

Ideas for Medic: Use Ripper and H&H tools nail gun Must only heal with chems (no food/water) Complete OWB to get improved organs Get all implants from OWB and NV medical clinic Operate Caesar (lethally or not) Complete Rex quest May be have evil karma

Fish… is everything okay?

On this episode of FishStickOnAStick, Fish kills god twice, goes insane over not being on a hitlist, and has an existential crisis, all while being drunk off his ass.

You wipe out the entire legion fort, then wander around the desert literally going, "La la la, I hope no one attempts to assassinate me." And you wonder why no assassins come at you. Dude, you terrify them!

As a funny article title once said “speed runners question if a glitchless fallout new Vegas run is even possible.”

What makes me a good demoman? WELL IF I WERE A BAD DEMONAN, I WOULDN'T BE WANDERING THROUGH THE WASTELAND NOW WOULD I?

I like how the game goes absolutely crazier than usual when Fish plays the guy whos such an alcoholic, his liver is a distillery. Its like pottery, it rhymes.

Fish slaughtering randos: “THERE’S NO CONSEQUENCES! THERE’S NO CONSEQUENCES!” Joshua Graham: “waging war against good people is bad for the soul.”

11:23 "You appear to have Trotted on a mine" "Couldn't ya see the bloody bombs" "They're gonna bury what's left of ya in a soup can"

I fully believe that every weird thing is due to alcohol based delusions

"New vegas has reality collapsing in on itself" is a very Mitten Squad (RiP) thing to happen, so i believe it

27:00 The same thing happened to me when I was doing the cazador with tin grenades challenge. I figured out that it was because I got the kill with my last grenade, and when you use your last grenade of a given type it unequips you, so you're technically not holding anything when the grenade goes off and I guess that stops it from registering that you used the right weapon. Fallout gonna Fallout I guess.

This run's wackiness makes up for not picking Wild wasteland at the start

Idk if it was on purpose but thank you for making a video in mitten squads honor fish 🐟 🫡

Ideas for Engineer: Use same shotguns as heavy, clip pistols, Euclid C finder (wrangler), laser rifles Wear hard hat Complete ED-E quests in vanilla and Lonesome road Get power armor training May be side with House

35:00 That's a new one. So if the FBI doesn't buy the 300000 year old dragon girl, you can just say she's coded as an adult.

44:00 Lanius got blown up so hard, he when straight to hell to get glued back together

15:53 Fish reportedly likes the sounding

Running around as Demoman slinging explosives at the enemy while drunk is a pretty wild ride. But it wouldn't be done if you were a bad Demoman. And Fish going more and more mad as the run gets more and more unhinged is hilarious. He really is becoming like the Demoman. Sniper will be fun, especially using the Anti-Material Rifle and possibly hunting down every faction leader and killing them because "Snipin's a good job, mate!"

"I'll have two number 9's, a number 9 large" I desperately need to see someone animate this with Demo ordering drinks from a bar.

Dude. You created an explosion so powerful, it shook reality itself loose at the seams. That's transcendent levels of demoman. You succeeded better than anyone could have hoped for. This is not only a successful challenge, this is your most successful challenge to date.

12:23 rare (common) footage of invisible spy getting accidentally blown up

27:59 Scottish resistance experience

If I were to guess on the dynamite, the game occasionally checks for the weapon last in your hand. Since it was nothing, the game didn’t count it. It’s how some people do the Crackerjack Timing achievement without using the actual weapons

Ah, but you see, the whole run happened in a Demo's drunk stupor and he's still sleeping with his face covered in dirt right outside of Goodsprings Saloon.

39:00 "My punishment continues to elude me, And i gain no deeper knowledge of myself. No new knowledge can be extracted from my telling. This Confession has meant nothing"

the shishkebab and gehenna were literally perfect for the sharpened volcano fragment

"I'm drunk, you don't have an excuse"

I love to imagine that demoman is just that much of a threat that scout, spy, and heavy can't intimidate the legion and NCR to the point of them wanting nothing to do with you and still being cool with you in fear that you'll just place down 50 explosives and make them go gone.

If you kill Chaisar his assassin's stop spawning for a few weeks and then legat starts sending them for you

“None of my actions have consequences now” oh so there’s a bug that turns it into fallout 3 and 4

In the MVM trailer demo man is showing a holding a shotgun so you could’ve just used the shotgun only for the bottles and then just sold it to make some caps

"People aren't going to be mad about it but they should be", absolutely based take from FSoaS, racism is racism and racism is bad.

Analyzing the Accuracy of Weapon Analogues between Fallout: New Vegas and Team Fortress 2 Introduction In the realm of video gaming, creative challenges often inspire players to complete games under unique constraints. A popular trend involves using only specific types of weapons or tools that align with those found in another game. This essay examines the attempt of FishStickOnAStick to beat Fallout: New Vegas using weapon analogues of the Demoman character from Team Fortress 2 (TF2). While most of FishStickOnAStick's choices adhered to the Demoman's arsenal, the use of the Shishkebab - a sword engulfed in flames - raises questions about its validity as an analogue to the Demoman's weaponry. This essay will argue that the Shishkebab does not fit within the established constraints and, therefore, should not be considered a legitimate choice. The Demoman's Arsenal in Team Fortress 2 The Demoman in TF2 is known for a specific set of weapons: Grenade Launchers: The Demoman's primary weapons include standard and specialized grenade launchers, such as the Loch-n-Load and the Iron Bomber. Stickybomb Launchers: These launchers, such as the Scottish Resistance and the Stickybomb Launcher, allow the Demoman to lay traps and detonate explosives remotely. Melee Weapons: The Demoman's melee arsenal includes various swords and other blunt instruments like the Eyelander, the Scotsman's Skullcutter, and the Bottle. Each weapon in the Demoman's arsenal is defined by its explosive nature or melee combat style, focusing on delivering high damage through explosions or powerful melee attacks. Weapon Analogues in Fallout: New Vegas In Fallout: New Vegas, FishStickOnAStick can find several weapons that serve as plausible analogues to the Demoman's arsenal: Grenade Launchers and Explosives: Weapons such as the grenade launcher and the dynamite stick serve as direct analogues to the Demoman's grenade and sticky bomb launchers. Melee Weapons: Melee weapons in Fallout: New Vegas include various swords, knives, and blunt instruments, that align with demoman's arsenal in Team Fortress 2. These choices align with the core characteristics of the Demoman's weapons in TF2: explosives for ranged attacks and powerful melee weapons for close combat. The Shishkebab and Its Incompatibility The Shishkebab is a unique weapon in Fallout: New Vegas. It is a modified sword that is engulfed in flames, delivering both slashing and fire damage. While it is undeniably a melee weapon, its inclusion as an analogue to the Demoman's arsenal is questionable for several reasons: Lack of Fire-based Melee Weapons in TF2: The Demoman's melee weapons do not include any fire-based or elemental weapons. The TF2 Demoman relies on raw physical damage from his swords and other melee implements, without any elemental enhancements. Deviation from Core Weapon Characteristics: The Shishkebab introduces a fire damage element that is absent from the Demoman's weaponry. This addition alters the fundamental nature of the melee combat experience, making it inconsistent with the Demoman's straightforward approach to melee damage. Breaking the Thematic Consistency: Using the Shishkebab compromises the thematic consistency of the challenge. The intent was to emulate the Demoman's fighting style as closely as possible. By introducing a fire-based weapon, FishStickOnAStick strays from this objective. Conclusion While FishStickOnAStick's challenge to use Demoman-like weapons in Fallout: New Vegas was creative and largely accurate, the inclusion of the Shishkebab undermines the integrity of the attempt. The Shishkebab's fire damage does not align with the Demoman's established arsenal in TF2, which is characterized by purely physical melee damage and explosive ranged attacks. For a more faithful execution of the challenge, FishStickOnAStick should have restricted their melee weapon choices to those that reflect the Demoman's unembellished melee weapons, thereby maintaining the thematic and functional consistency of the challenge.

This is hilarious and batshit insane. Demoman is so drunk that he makes Pyro's Pyroland seem like a Dystopian Hellscape.

The game got as drunk as Demo

The Legion and NCR assassins fear the Ka-BEWM!!

I didnt think this was gonna ask with a Flowey esq meltdown

Crackerjack timing is arguably harder than Deathclaw pro hunter.

God I miss Mitten squad. Rest in piece you wondrous bastard 😢

Why we should get a flaming sword for Demoman in TF2 Proper: 1: It's fucking cool 2: It's FUCKING COOL. 3: Retroactively render Fish's stretching to justify it obsolete. And most importantly, 4: IT'S _FUCKING COOL._

Considering Demoman is canonically cursed and haunted by the Bombinomicon, we can just say the weirdness of this run was just the results of that. Also when you get to the Medic, you need to have a companion as your Heavy and give them a minigun

SCOOOOTLAAND FOOREVEEER

I have never seen Fish come so close to actually going bloody insane, and it wasn't even playing PYRO. Truly one of the most unforgettable experiences.

You forgot. *There can be only one.* It only makes sense that this run ended with everyone dead.

"listen here vaush" Ok you're automatically the best fallout challenge runner

Honestly, respect your choice about the fire sword. I wish you were right and pyro doesnt have a melee weapon that combusts people on fire, and instead giving that to demoknight

Hey fishstick on a stick I have some info on the mother deathclaw you might want to know and it explains why she wasn’t getting crippled as well as why her attacks where so powerful. Taken from the wiki-If one of the Deathclaw Babys at Quarry Junction is killed, the message "The mother deathclaw goes berserk at the death of her baby!" will display on the upper left. The Mother Deathclaw will be granted the Adamantium Skeleton(50% decrease in limb damage)and Better Criticals(+50% more damage with critical hits)perks, as well as the 25% damage bonus provided by Psycho. The Mother Deathclaw has a unique knockback effect while attacking, which will randomly knock the player into a ragdolled state. If the player has the Stonewall perk, this knockback effect will be blocked. Her Speed Multiplier is set to 175, compared to the standard Deathclaw's speed of 100 and an Alpha Male's speed of 150.

canonically demo man is the most MAGICAL of all the mercs so it makes sense that random shat keeps happening to him.

My own headcannon for this video is that Doc Michel gave Demoman his other eye without knowing about Monoculus and he proceeded to haunt the game

39:05 "That must be frustrating." "Uhh...yeah." "On the other hand, it is kind of an opportunity." "How's that?" "Well think about it, if you know in advance that everything is going to back to the way it was, then you could do anything! For as long as you want without having to worry about the consequences."

Fallout new Vegas sniper challenge rules are you can only use bolt action rifles, sniper rifles and SMG’s and no, you cannot use the marksman carbine and also you should complete Boones quest in novac

"Bear, bull, bear, bull, yeah I can't bear this bull anymore either" I loved that

7:20 Zach hazard would be proud of that grenade luancher shot. If i know a guy whom can fire nade tubes with incredible accuracy, it's Zach.

41:08 saying "you become what you eat" to the white glove society wouldve been waaaaay colder and cooler dude

11:49 The "throw me to the wolves and I'll come back pregnant" person was named Loki. Loki disguised themself as a horse to get knocked up by a stallion.

this was an amazing playthrough, it's my favorite one of this series so far and maybe even my favorite playthrough of new vegas out of the ones i can think of off the top of head i'd definitely be on board with you doing the up coming playthroughs live, this and the pyro one were so much fun

You can tell when the Demoman TF2 run stops being the Demoman TF2 run

16:37 fish briefly turns into a guitar

42:25 there's no consequence because every NPC knows your drunk

This was the most unhinge Fallout challenge I have ever seen and I'm all for it.

this series is the best stuff you’ve made, I love the commentary intercut with live reactions

Really embracing the mittensquad

hey fish idk if you're gonna see this, but i know why the two bugs in this run happened based on my own experiences. starting with the challenge to kill 5 deathclaws with dynamite, the stick you threw damaged another deathclaw in the process, and this deathclaw didn't die. it looks like there's a problem with the scripting where if you kill something for a challenge, but your weapons somehow damages something else at the same time without killing it, the game prioritizes the thing that didn't die, and in turn won't count. this is why the switchblade and boxing tape challenges counted, but the dynamite didn't. as for the faction reputation bug, as i understand it, it occurs when you're wearing faction armor for one faction in the game, but gain enough rep to transition to the next/previous level of another. (such as going from smiling troublemaker to good natured rascal or unpredictable) basically, at some point in the playthrough, you fucked yourself by seemingly completing a quest that awarded a large amount of fame or infamy with one faction while you were still wearing your powder ganger guard armor. hope this helps. :)

Fallout new Vegas has always seemed like a strange case to me

Engineer should side with the Brotherhood of Steel

43:43 bro laid down his crit stickys before the giant demo knight walked in

he starts doing a fucking flowey voice at the same moment he realizes that none of it matters

08:35 Scout TF2

Babe wake up new FishOnAStick FNV run

I love that there seems to be such a large cross over in the fanbases. You've stuck gold with this series!

If only this glitch happened during the Pyro run, but happening while drunk off several kinds of post-apocalypse booze is pretty fitting as well.

Explosives is my favorite playstyle and it ALWAYS results in the most crazy playthroughs you have ever seen! So glad somebody else has experienced this!

Glad that someone took the time to babysit Swannick. I can’t bring myself to wipe him out like other people do. Don’t much care for him telling me to fuck off, but he clearly needs a handler

I like to imagine that the faction reputation didn't actually break, demo just was perceiving it as if it did because he was, really, really, drunk

cant wait for the engomeer playthrough where he uses the Q-35 matter modular for the pomson and joins the brotherhood of steel

I bet my right egg that when there is an attempt for a medic, you will take a partner, give him a minigun and just wait behind him when he kills all the opponents and treat him

I love the melee weapon options you picked, though when I attempted I also used the Fire Axe and its unique variant, Knock-Knock as one of my melee weapons; to represent the Scotsman Skullcutter.

"Youve been working against us" SINCE WHEN???

This was my second playthrough of NV ever.

So glad that Zuko got a job, he has truly regained his honor.

Fish finding out about NV explosion jank was the funniest thing ever

I can't believe you put in so much effort in the tutorial, just to side with the novice with dynamite.

The streams for this other reason I fell in love with this channel then I saw your TF2 content

Your impressions are spot on.

Raiders-we got you now you black Scottish cyclops! Fish-KABOOM!

11:51 excuse me WHHHHAAATTT

Holy crap! I just finished your stream of this! Now I can watch the abridged version! XD

To be fair, in tf2 classic demo can equip a dynamite pack as his secondary, or a mine layer that functions similar to the sticky launcher but with proximity mines, so those 2 count

I am very sorry to hear that Demoman gave you such a headache. Hopefully the next TF2 merc you do won't give you as much trouble. I think it's only fitting that you do Soldier next since you did Demoman and Red Demoman and Blue Soldier are friends

14:10: "Pottery, it rhymes" i lost my shit.

2:08 Robin Walkers Eyelander

That spy's a bloody- MEDIC! *laughs then dies*

Assuming you can survive the experience, for the Soldier run you can get an NCR uniform, a Combat Helmet, and a Missile Launcher pretty much immediately in Black Mountain. I think for extra rules you should probably avoid working with the NCR military. He was rejected from every branch after all.

Fish. You dont understand. This is entirely lore accurate to the Demoman. Good job.

when you do Soldier, I think one of your goals should be to instead protect the president, because it’s Soldier. (If that’s an option, that is. The only thing I know about New Vegas is that there’s a funny TV man.)

this video feels like shepherd's mind from way back in the day
