  • The Mojave has no shortage when it comes to graves, and more often than not those graves serve as nothing more than simple landmarks and containers to be looted. But once in a blue moon you’ll discover a grave that has more meaning to it, a history if you will, and I can think of no grave with more history than the one belonging to Chance, The Great Khan who couldn’t let go.

    Oh dude I remember this comic! It came with my pre-order for new Vegas. I even got the vault 13 bundle(came with the armored suit and the “trusty canteen” lol 😂). The art in this comic is amazing. I wish Bethesda would release more comics of fallout. Truth be told I almost wish Chance was the protagonist of New Vegas. It’s a bummer that a lot people didn’t fully understand the backstory(The grave) of chance back in 2010.

    • @Steel-101
      @Steel-101 Год назад +7

      @@wyvvernstone exactly! Same thing goes with chances map that’s close to red rock canyon, The Khan camp and The tribal village right next to chances grave. If you didn’t read the comic book, you wouldn’t understand any of these locations. In my opinion they should’ve included dialogue in the game that would explain the full journey and characters before the events of good springs. That way nobody misses out.

    If chance was alive at the time of the game, it would've been great to have him as a companion after Benny betrays Jessup and the other Khans. Having a companion that's activity anti NCR would be great, a counter to Boon.

    @lurkingedge Год назад +26

    Chance's Knife is one of the best melee weapons in the game when it received the 25% damage bonus from both the Commando and Cowboy perks.
    Late game, however, it is surpassed by Blood Nap, a unique Lonesome Road DLC bowie, which also benefits from the Cowboy perk, and has a much higher base damage.

    • @ultraviolet540
