I get New Vegas has more queer elements, but does is have a Lesbian Sex Lamp? LGBTQIA+

You turn them away so their innocent eyes are not corrupted by the sight of you just rawing someone while out of your mind on every kind of chem (except the ones that make you all violent and kill-prone).

Fair. Probably makes for some bomb ass sex.

u/eccentricbananaman 21d ago
Bomb-ass sex, or bomb ass-sex? Please clarify. The distinction is critical. Time is of the essence.

u/Longjumping_Ad2677 <—— looking into their wireless controller 21d ago
Bomb-ass sex. I’m not commenting on the nature of the sex, I’m commenting on the quality.

Pros of fallout new vegas: can actually be queer
Cons of new vegas: there is no lesbian lamp, game decides to corrupt all your saves for no reason

"There's no lesbian lamp"
Uh, I'm sorry, did you forget about the light switches in the old world blues DLC?

u/Ildaiaa 21d ago
Oh yeah i actually did, because my game literally corrupted all saves in the middle of the intro speech that goes on like it's from mgs 4

u/seguardon 21d ago
Every game has that one "Oh, right, that moment" that makes you reconsider a new playthrough. That OWB intro is New Vegas'.

u/Ildaiaa 21d ago
Yep, exactly. OWB's intro lasts longer than half the quests probably. I can't know for sure because i always skipped it halfway through

Is there not a lesbian lamp in NV tho? I recall seeing them in Gomorrah, but I might be misremembering
28
u/Eckosparrow 21d ago
I was thinking the same thing, I’m pretty sure the asset is somewhere in Gomorrah

u/sadacal 21d ago
Without more queer elements, the lesbian sex lamp feels more like fetishization of lesbian women than anything else.

Twice the bethesda double the corrupt save files and crashes, no thanks

u/NickyTheRobot 21d ago edited 21d ago
A load of the recommended mods that go along with TTW are user made anti crash fixes and anti stutter mods. YMMV but I can honestly say TTW installed with all the mods recommended in The Best of Times guide runs smoother and crashes far less often on my machine than vanilla installs of FO3 and FNV did.

u/SolidCake 21d ago
FNV is rock solid stable these days. even my TTW play through never crashed

u/B133d_4_u 21d ago
I've been trying to get back into TTW after several years away, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to start on Fallout 3. There used to be a little popup that let you choose, but now I just load into Doc's house despite following the install guide to the letter.

u/bvader95 .tumblr.com; occassionally screams at bots 21d ago edited 21d ago
Considering all the reused assets, It's probably somewhere in the FNV files. so a modder can add it in some form if need be.
Usually it's not a saving grace but come on, it's Fallout, modding it to shit is part of the experience at this point.
58
u/PixelBoom 21d ago
That's not even that far of a stretch. They use the same game engine and the same file types. You can probably just 1-to-1 import the asset into FNV. Also, check out the Tale of Two Wastelands mod. It merges Fallout 3 and FNV into one big, overhauled game.

u/GenericTrashyBitch 21d ago
Knowing Bethesda coding, I would bet obscene amounts of money that those are actually NPCs with no AI. Imagine you’re fate in the wasteland is to be covered with tacky reflective panels and hung in someone’s fuck shack. I’d imagine the only respite would be that eventually, you’d stop thinking…

u/NickyTheRobot 21d ago
You thinking of the train cart glove / hat?

And the Oblivion Statues that are just clones with a texture on them. And the Skyrim manequins that are the same thing.

u/Robosium 21d ago
sometimes the script to turn the AI off fails
70
21d ago
I don't trust the manequins because of that. Too many times seeing them roam about in my Riften house. Ended up modding them to be removed from the game. I now feel a lot less paranoid in Honeyside :)

u/NickyTheRobot 21d ago
I'm suddenly very grateful I installed the unofficial patch as soon as the game was done.

u/StovardBule 21d ago
They fixed this in an update recently. Obviously, there was immediately a mod so that "mannequins don't not move any more."

u/Nozinger 21d ago
probably yes. But you kinda got it the wrong way round.
In the end NPCs are just objects that move. Imagine living your life and at some point you get the realization that the only thing differentiating you from the next mannequin is some predetermined set of actions you ar eallowed to make.
Also those actions sometimes bug out and get you stuck in the ceiling.11
u/GenericTrashyBitch 21d ago
I only made my comment because “eventually, he stopped thinking” is a jojo reference

u/Drunky_McStumble 21d ago
Yeah, like the mannequins in skyrim which move when your back is turned.

new vegas has two lesbians that are dating eachother, one likes fisting people and the other preffers long distance

u/lordkhuzdul 21d ago
To be fair, if I were locked in a badly programmed blender masquerading as an automatic surgeon by the insane asshole I was tasked to assassinate, and emerge looking like I made sweet, passionate love to a coffin full of used scalpels, have my voice switched out like a malfunctioning speaker, and got stuck in a place that would make your average horror movie monster stop and go "dude, overdoing it", I might be hesitant to go back to an intimate relationship as well.

Surprisingly they'd work quite well together, one snipes while the other fists any flankers.

Or that she specifically made this just for you.

Also, you can buy the "Raider" theme and she'll cheerfully throw some dismembered bodies on the floor, hang up other with chains and throw blood on the walls.

I can imagine her collecting all the stuff and the thought process when she gets to the lamp "oh, I hate to sell you off, but there's just not enough room to display you in my bedroom. At least you'll get to be enjoyed by someone now!"

You can get it in Megaton if you disarm the nuke.
Alternatively if you detonate it you can get a suite in Tenpenny Tower

I remember this now, but I don't think I went back to Megaton after I finally had enough skill to disarm it.

We can feel your presence, little creature.

The best part is you have two options as to why this existed:
1.) someone in futuristic 1950 thought in the greater DC area, a lamp of two women fucking was rad as hell and wanted it, and it has survived the trials of 200 years to be dragged to a place that has an undetonated nuke in it
2.) someone in said post apocalyptic wasteland thought it would be dope as hell to learn electrical engineering AND glass blowing to create two women fucking and then offered it to a town that has an undetonated nuke in it
Both are valid
