Fun vid man keep it coming
I think the caesar legion even as a man would still be the top of C tier because you’d likely be used as cannon fodder and forced to fight basically vietnam war era troops the NCR with a machete and football armor or are just a normal civilian with slightly worse living conditions than the NCR
why does everyone forget about jacobstown? i get that they aren't the biggest faction but hey if we can include goodsprings i feel like you can include them
They don't have reputation
@@skeletonbuyingpealts7134 i know, but there still a faction, they have a slide at the end of the game

the legion: SSS
filthy profligates: F-
Novac should be lower, there’s that one quest where Nightkin comes at night and kills brahmin and the guy who gives you the quest prefers to ignore it and hope it goes away which it won’t, this means that without Courier interference, a major food source for Novac will eventually be wiped out
Everyone who lives on the strip is in with one of the casinos, the NCR, or house. That pretty much sets you up so you don't have to worry about much.
Great stuff I love FallOut and I'm so glad the series has spurred such new interest in such a great series
Really fun, love your editing :)
I seriously doubt legion would do much about Goodsprings. Once settlers from their territory move in, some will probably occupy former residences of those that fled and will continue the hunting and bighorner ranching habits. The town might actually prosper a bit with extended trade with the East, of course the future of the Legion itself is still in question.
Followers are a volunteer force, they can just leave
I would argue the great khans should be WAY lower. First off red rock has basically no resources and im pretty sure one of the khans says that they arent able to go on food runs. Secondly after bitter springs the khans lost pretty much all of their hold outside of the drug trade due to their loss not only in soldiers but civilians and children. That would make the khans way less populated. Also due to bitter springs alot of the khans are addicts and likely suffering from withdrawl as they need to sell chems to not die out.Thirdly without the khans migrating to wyoming they will die out in the battle of hoover dam. Even if they side with caesar they will be forced to either join or die. With the NCR they cannot be involved in the drug trade due to it being illegal without permission. And even without major factions red rock has a lot of cazadors in the mountain pass to jacobs town and the vipers in bonnie springs along with some deathclaws straying from the main area of quary junction. So at the very least in most endings the khans are an f tier due their poor foriegn relations and resources. However if they migrate then I could see them being in a or even s tier as they are discribed as becoming a mighty empire.
Ngl, wish you also did Faction tier list based on how well they're written and gameplay aspect(aka how many side quests they need and what quests they do have how much roleplay can you squeeze from em)
My short list is:
Writing vise:
S Tier: NCR, Khans, Boomers, Novac
A Tier: BOS(needs slightly more lore and explanations, also one nitpick I have is how you can do BOS quests and then do Veronica follower wuest and BOS bozos will still attack you and you can't report em or something, almost like devs forgoe to make those 2 quests work together logically). Mr House(my favourite faction, but lacks lore and especially Strip itself lacks writing, we barely get to experience 3 families). Followers(Great factions, just needa more written characters around Mojave etc). Goodsprings(early town so I'm not too harah on it, just wish there was more like addressing cassadores issue and how they might one day move into Goodsprings)
B tier: Kings(heavily undercooked, for example you first learn about them from denying many people the water supply and demanding pay and never learning much more about it, is it out of spite or greed or they have their reasons?). Legion(heavily undercooked)
C Tier: Fiends(I mean, I get why the faction is so simple but I wish they got just a tad midge more nuance? Idk)
D Tier: Powder Gangsters(Those darn gangsters got 2-3 whole locations and them rowdy youngsters can't get proper development or writing)
Gameplay vise:
S Tier: NCR and I guess Novac, yep, that's it.
A Tier: Boomers, Goodsprings(only forgiven because it's the first town, but come on, they could've given us atleast one or two more aide quests, or more ways to solve their side quest😅)
B Tier: Great Khans, almost there, needs 2~ side quests and a few more presence in game and I'd be satisfied with em. Strip despite being THE Major hub of the game, I still felt like we didn't get that many side quests, but it deserves B tier for Beyond the beef side quest alone, BEST side quest in Fallout and maybe RPG HISTORY 🗿. Followers are lacking too in quest department and presence in game.
C Tier: Legion, half of their side quests is just sabotaging NCR quests, come on we need more Legion quests and give us options to sabotage them too 😤
D tier: Powder Gangsters. Idk, despite having a surprisingly decent presence in Mojave, I feel they lack side quests, especially the NCRCF.
E Tier: Fiends? What fiend side quests 😂. I think you can do one task for Motor Runner and that's it, that's all the content for evil playthrough 💀
I may be biased, but BOS would be C tier, the likely-hood of you slowly dying of old age in that bunker, or getting wiped out by the NCR, Legion, or House is way too high. That, and I'm forced to use stinky energy weapons (John Browning is the true Elder)
yeah they're staring into the abyss and willfully won't save themselves, don't even have a plan for when the air filters fail
@@brilliantradience yeah, the only "good" endings for them are an NCR truce, where they'll probably eventually get wiped out when they either get too cocky and agitate the NCR, or when the NCR just get tired of them, or the independent ending where they're just a nuisance to anyone traveling, there's no growth to their faction.
Having 2/4 major factions just wanting you erase from existence with no compromise ALONE should make any minor fraction lose A tier status, but NCR/Yes Man ONLY tolerate BOS if Courier intervenes, so literally no allies and big 4 hate you 💀💀💀💀
0:38 It can go S tier if you're one of the Brahmin Barons who can avoid or minimize taxes or if you're NCR politician 🗿
1:30 Actually not necessarily the case, they CAN win a fight vs NCR on an occasion even if you abstain from helping Powder Gangers and just watch them duke it out 😂. Not sure if it's intentional pr janky ass gamebryo engine saving PG, but yeah they can protect their territory even from NCR. 1:38 Don't you DISS dynamite stick! It's not even the worst explosive that PG use, the powder charge they put around their small outposts that act like mines? Those suck so bad, I'm currently abandoned(plan to return one day) my PG Courier playthrough because I planned to rely on their powder charges and they do so little dmg omg 😱
6:58 Ngl, kinda hate how NV did this, NCR ending is just waaay too good, so many factions in Mojave just have big chungus wholesome ending and idk, just feels like they wanted to make NCR look better than what is advertised by NCR aligned NPC's and their enemies. Also sadly there's no end slide on how Mr. Chad aka Mr. House handles Followers, I'd assume, considering he doesn't send you to game end them after the whole bugging lucky 38, I assume he sees value in them and would allow them to flourish hence why I saily the best FNV is ending is Mr. House ending where House is mostly involved with NCR politics, economy and space travel while my Courier handles Mojave, aka he helps rebuild communities, especially Freeside and North Vegas and Westside Vegas and we all build big community of Free Association of People(poor choice of words, ik 😅 maybe replace people with workers so it's F.A.W.) and in case Mr. House ever gets Authoritarian and touches followers or anarchists in Westside, we gonna do a lil trolling on his pod, and we just get Yes Man to help 😊
9:24 You're like that Purple Punk Khan who wants to do literally anything else besides Khan things frfr 😭
10:36 Makes sense, Boomers are like warm blooded MURICANS! So ofc everyone wants to work with em and they're so strong cuz they have guns 😅
12:33 Also gruesome image for y'all, there's a settlement up north where one of the raider leaders has love and war ya? Well, if they all die *cassadors move in* and the chance's camp where Benny and Khans stayed? *Also overrun by casadores* We kinda underplaying the fact that Goodsprings might not survive for long if those bugs move in, scary af. 12:40 The Cassadors ARE active threat, it only takes a few corpses to lead them to Goodsprings and it's gg, or those giant scorpions move in(you need decent gear to kill em, something that only Chet sort of has). 17:03 You forgoe that someone had a bright idea of settling in a vault where there are DEATHCLAWS nearby 💀💀💀💀💀, imagine if those lil lover claws come in at night to the vault, it's gg 💀
Anyway as for your tier list I mostly agree although I heavily disagree on BOS ranking. I mean the entire thesis(get it? 😅) of the game is "BOS is fcked yo" Veronica constantly drills it into the player about how BOS can't make friends even if their life depended on it. Also keep in mind, 2/4 major factions want you DEAD, *PRONTO* , *N O REDEMPTION* and those two are bloody Legion and Mr. House. And the only reason NCR haven't dealt with you yet is because they haven't found you yet and if Courier doesn't do tons of political juggling, he's gonna kill them too, and Yes Man tells his boss "Ayo, BOS has to go, they're unhinged" which means, if we assume Courier doesn't exist, then both NCR and Benny led Independent Vegas will ALSO kill BOS.
Ya can't be A tier when all major factions hate you at worst and at best tolerate you. Only A tier BOS members are people like Veronica who bring supplies or Scouts, because both can bail out on BOS if they fear the threat is coming.
At best I'd give them a B tier, it's a coin toss, you have 40~ maybe 50% chance of surviving and chilling while the rest is death and extermination by House or Legion or maybe even NCR or Yes Man searching for any survivors 💀 on the other hand if you have NCR or Yes Man chilling then you have a hope at survival
Future looking good on the strip. About that. Turns out Shady Sands got nuked and The strip ain’t looking too good either. Imagine that eh.
It's not in the game, so it doesn't count.
