Convincing Ulysses with his Holotapes (Think Tank Route) 

Lmao

I sure wish there was.

It's there we just haven't found how to activate it😂

In this convo he said those words once each. I really hate this specific mockery of the character, as it really just goes to show the illiteracy of the speaker.

@@SunniestAutumnI bet you’re fun at parties. Anyways making fun of his “bull” “bear” is funny

Yeah I think I tried, but nothing.

Ngl Ullyses was best and worst part of this DLC Best because sometimes he spoke fax but man I felt that it was too little plus I wish more actions from Mojave/DLCs could influence him. Same goes to influencing him with low int to make him reconsider how Courier was genuinely dum dum

@@danielsurvivor1372ikr, I wish I could talk to him about how I took over big MT for the betterment of humanity and Christine did the same the siera, and how he is somewhat repeating Elijah’s foolishness

@@danielsurvivor1372ngl, they already had trouble fitting his dialogue on the disk as is.

@@kekero540 disk lmao

Ulysses must’ve slipped some Mentats in your Nuka-Cola when you weren’t looking so you’d maybe understand what the hell he’s talking about

With 1 intelligence your essentially a kid reciting what his parents have been repeating to him and actually succeeding

With a lot of bullets, probably.

The Frontier shows how people would react to the Courier without a brain except it's the Courier that has a brain and the people that don't

@@warriorwolf77 so in other words, it's a real life simulator?

​@@warriorwolf77"hey its the legendary courier"

Courier without a brain is the only canon that makes sense, he did get shot directly in the brain to start the game after all

Which makes him amazing b/c I did this route while tried 2 long ago but then I told him his ideals were wrong and then the fight started

​@@pyr1412Agreed. Just kill him and be done with it

Said* “sayed” isn’t a word.

@@yeezyszn7208 why do you care? It was 2 years ago...

​@@Jogmemesoncommenters may come and go but the grammar nazis remain

Nice observation.

@@muntadar1655 yes, thats what he calls the ncr and legion. and yes, he, as an ex legion courier, is going to refer to the ncr and legion a lot. what, do you also walk into camp mccarin and complain that everybody keeps saying "ncr"?

@@ckopen7192 The Divide

@@muntadar1655 did your ai break pr something?

you just described the plot of new vegas

I made a Ulysses asmr, lol

But also the idea that if he wipes the slate clean again, like the bombs did back in 2077, that might be the key to a new Divide from forming again. And this time hopefully without the accidental or intentional boom.

@@PapitoQinn but he doesn’t plan to wipe the slate clean, just to kill a nation… he plans that the legion will eat itself but he has no way of knowing that. In effect he is only repeating your mistakes.

@@doughboywhine He doesn't know with a 100% certainty, no. But history has shown that a culture built on war eventually breaks and consumes itself. Genghis Khan's Mongolians for example. A culture built on capitalism, like the NCR, falls apart when the money stops flowing. So his destroys the long 95.

⁠​⁠@@PapitoQinn calling the NCR a culture founded on capitalism is reductive. President Tandi from Fallout 2 and Kimball from New Vegas represent two different interpretations of democracy; both flawed sure but neither can be reduced to mere capitalism. Tandi sees capitalism as an engine of prosperity but makes an effort to restrain it by regulating the ranch barons and spending the tax revenue on public projects. Kimball sees capitalism as an engine for colonialist expansion and removes prior regulations to receive their full support.

@@radicalfishstickstm8563I don’t got much for this conversation, but I just wanna add an idea I’ve heard before. What if there was a way we could like, collectively own the natural world since nobody made it, but for the individual to gain the value they’ve created from free trade? You know, the Georgist argument, I guess. The land was made by nobody, so we should all own it equally. For the products and services we create, we can extract the value created by the natural world like oil and such, and leave out a filtered value created solely by the actual work put in. No monopolies that exploit the natural world, just good honest competition. After all, competition is what’s supposed to make capitalism work good in the first place. Without it, it erodes, and turns into a fascist machine that makes the worker a cog, a tool. Competition is what gives us good jobs, and good products and services. Maybe I am looking at all of this the wrong way, but I don’t think colonialism and conquering things are inherently capitalist. Those things happen when the state wants more stuff, right? Not necessarily when the honest worker wants more stuff. There are arms dealers and merchants of death who want war, sure, but our job then is to make their profession unprofitable, and make sure their money can’t get into any politicians pocket. Easier said than done, I guess. I dunno. I just feel like the NCR is the closest thing to any functional system out there. I feel like with the right tweaks, it could be good and sustainable. I guess I’d still like to learn about the divide, though. About what it’s system is like.

Ulysses should've just downloaded BetterHelp

ngl the tape about the white men touched my heart, for some reason

​@@TheRhalfwhite men?

@@Lock-yn7wk Sry white legs, I believe they were called? I'm sleepy af lmao, it was the holotape about the braids

Nah these conversation dialogues are quite onvious if you listen to the things ulysses says in the tapes. For instance why would ulysses say that question to not die? Hes not a particularly cowardly individual and he's far too phillosphical to be primarily concerned with his wellbeing.

@@mappingshaman5280 I mean, for example choice after "you wanted to remind them who they are" is already quite confusing, because option with "nukes are useless" seems competent, but actually right one is "if you think divide nuke was unjust then fair ig", which even sounds kinda weird. Next two one are fair enough though, appealeaing to Ulysses with symbol stuff makes sense. Okay, I admit that it's not as confusing as I thought it is, but probably only viable on consecutive playthroughs.

I did it without save scumming bro 😂 you just have to have common sense and actually embrace the story told.

Yeah. Except for other games written with the help of Chris Avellone, like Knights of the Old Republic 2.

Ulysses comes off like a broken record imo. Like a pseudo intellectual who learned about big words but never truly meditated on their full meaning. He’s one circuit short of a processor.

NUH UH LORK LPSY OF THE OTHER ONES FO

@@bruxinth4660 Wrong

@@lukescrew1981 hes right* ulysses is the worst written character Avellone has made

Oh sweet. What exactly do you have in mind?

Lol I love dead money. Though my first ever playthrough of it was an absolute nightmare and ended with me having to reload a save before I started it because I was completely unprepared.

@@wyatt8000 totally. My first time I was roaming the Villa with a quarter of the healthbar and dying all the time, didn't have enough food and meds. I still have a gamer ptsd from that

I remember that mission where you get to that tower and set an alarm off and all the ghost people came I had no stympaks so I just ran out of there with all those things behind me, scariest shit ever

Circumstance? Well a man is as good as his circumstance and environment to form his nature but to change it? To change man's nature would be to destroy him from the inside to challenge him and all that life has instilled him, to make him defy his ideals, question everything he's holds to heart, the lessons he learnt and the men or circumstance past or present that gifted his way of thought to change a man's nature would be to change or erase his history Ulysses (maybe?)

Are you sure you found and listen to all the holotapes?

@@PapitoQinn I got it to work. Thank you for the guide

@@haydenfrost2692 Sweet

This worked for me and I only found like 2 of them

what about some cinematic edit of a jingle jangle electro remix

DE mentioned🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥

The soundtrack is supposed to be haunting, not energetic

@@uberd3323 Tell me how this scene is anything but energetic? Talking down a delusional patriot in front of an ICBM? Oh yeah really feeling the haunting vibes from this. My point wasn't that "this game should've used this exact song," in the first place anyways. Of course the music should meet the mood. My point was that New Vegas has nothing going for it in the music department besides the radio stations and the experience suffers from it. Install Digital Nightmares and tell me how much better the game is with some real atmosphere.

@darkops420 Low tier bait. Shitting on Disco Elysium isn't the W you're pretending it is.
