    This is impressive. Although, I know a guy who beat Fallout 4 using only caltrops.
    Did you know people die if you reverse-pickpocket caltrops into their inventory? That took care of a lot of baddies. The rest involved lots and lots of patience.

    Can you beat Fallout 4 as Santa Claus? Only weapon allowed is the Junk Jet loaded with children's toys.Optionally, the only armor you can wear is the Sexy Santa suit from the creation club. Bonus points if it's Nate in the suit.

  • @Ancusohm

    Challenge run idea: You can only use institute items: synth armor and weapons. Stuff like that.
    I imagine the hardest part would be progressing far enough to get into the Institute.

    • @ArtemisiaGloriana
      @ArtemisiaGloriana Před 5 měsíci +9

      Honestly, I don't think it would? The hardest part would be doing Fire Support, which would involve running away from ghouls while Danse slowly whittles them down. The moment that that's over, you can grab Institute weapons from the synths Danse kills at ArcJet and then it's a normal run.

    Challenge suggestions:
    No crafting. You can never touch a workbench, chemistry station, or cooking station. Only use what you find or buy.
    No perks. You can only spend points on stats.
    Skyrim Illiterate Mage. Can't use spell tomes, only learn spells from npcs or items.

    Molotovs are the bane of my existence in Fallout 4. They have a wonky spinning hitbox that makes them explode on bad geometry unless you're an NPC with perfect aim and their blast radius is, like, twice as large as it should be.

    Long time no comment Willow! I got myself an Xbox Series S recently so I thought I would give it another go. So far I only have $30 of CC mods installed and no mods. Aside from the occasional game crashes from the PS4, so far the new console is working pretty well. I have already completed the CC mod quests and I started on the Nuka World stuff. So far the only bugs I have, is the lack of ability to complete Gage's companion missions and the game crashing with both the Sentient Power Armor and Gage as my partners for some reason. Other than that, making good progress and I am almost to where I was at before the PS4 run died.

    Theres a challenge run ive wanted to see done for a while now... ive personally done it and it is FUN... basically, the challenge is "can you beat fallout 4 with only power armor". I think it was mitten squad (may he find peace in his walk through the veil) that did a similar challenge, but this one would badically just limit all weapons to things your power armor can do... jetpack/explosive vents, pain train perk, and power armor mma with bonus electroshock therapy and bloody knuckles for added fun.
    As i said, ive done this build before and its actually super fun to fist fight a deathclaw wearing a mini tank.

Just something off the top of my head. I play on survival nigh exclusively, and the only melee run I've done on it was a blast, and I feel like adding that might be even more fun. Thanks for what you do Willow!

    I honestly doubt you'll see this but you should do a fully naked unarmed survival run, it's kinda pain but once you get it done you feel GREAT. When I did it I didn't put a restriction on skills apart from Idiot Savant, I also allowed a robot companion once I reached a high enough level but no other companions and I made them melee only with the Protectron Arms and Hands but any other combination of parts. It was such a fun run I highly recommend it!

      I am well aware of ballistic weave. Have used it in multiple runs. I just don't see the point in getting it every run as it's really boring. It's also fun to have the challenges be a bit more challenging. The video wouldn't be as fun if I never had a frustrating moment. It's not even a challenge if there's no adversity.

    With caltrops and cryogrenades maybe. Big leagues increases trap damage as they do not explode. I rarely use poisoned traps and by not using stealth you are really hurting your chances. Stealth and reverse pickpocketing make caltrops with big leagues fun. You can reverse pickpocket mines and grenades but you need to run away fast.

  • @hkillorean6254
    @hkillorean6254 Před 4 měsíci

    A fun challenge that Ive actually done is power fist only. Yes, bare fists only is a common run, but the power fist is both more fun and more module, with the main difficulty being finding it and dealing with melee enemies and mirelurks. But it is still incredibly fun, especially with a strength/agility run, rather than strength/endurance. Add on some luck and charisma, and you've got a very strange but very fun run
