Can You Beat Fallout New Vegas As A Necromancer? (in text form)
No. Of course you can’t. Don’t be stupid, that’s a dumb idea. I feel comfortable saying that because of how incredible the original idea was. See, what I was gonna do was use a mod to let me have both an infinite number of companions and the ability to make anyone a companion. The mod entitled JIP Companions Command & Control seemed to fit the bill with it’s option for so-called “Unlimited Companions” but it actually caps out at 16, which is countless orders of magnitude lower than what I needed. The plan was to make Easy Pete my companion, then every time he died, I’d spawn in 2 more to take his place. When they died, 4 would replace them, then 8, then 16, then 32, until hopefully I had more than 1,000 Easy Petes in the greatest army ever conceived. Unfortunately it was not meant to be.
But I liked the idea so much that I dug its lifeless corpse out of the dumpster I left it in and mangled it around inside my head box until something usable grew out of it. Then I got it. I play as a Necromancer, one of those dark magic guys that can bring people back from the dead. It’d be like the Companion Only video, except I my only companions will be corpses. Where the Necromancer part comes in is that I use the Resurrect command on any dead creature, make it my companion, and when it dies, it’s gone for good. This probably isn’t the best concept for a “Can You Beat” video, but it’s what I came up with on short notice. The Dead Space playthrough I finished earlier this week turned out to be far more mentally exhausting to write a script for than I anticipated, most likely due to how linear the game is.
Anyway, my SPECIAL Stats were aimed at increasing the Nerve of my companions which is based on your Charisma, being able to take damage, and get skill points. Despite the points put into Charisma, I was not going to rely on Speech to complete the game. My soulless puppets would have to carry me to the finish line. My first stop outside of Doc Mitchell’s house after selling my trash and noticing that a Bighorner can be a possible companion was the road leading to Sloan. There’s a couple dead guys out by an RV that God left there just for me. Thanks Todd, you’re the best.
It’s Christmas in July in the Mitten Squad household. Believe it or not, there were actually 3 lies in that sentence. A Powder Ganger killed his brother, I brought a Caravan Guard back from the dead, played around with the menu system, it’s kind of intimidating at first but once you learn how to use it it ain’t so bad. Also, I set the difficulty to Very Hard to make up for the fact that I could have up to 16 companions at once. Shoot the barrels, interrupt an argument, negotiate with the people who don’t know they’re secretly my hostages, and let the battle for Goodsprings begin. I’d left my Power Ganger at Jean Sky Diving because, at this point in the playthrough, I wasn’t sure if the factions a companion is a part of would have any impact on how I interact with other factions. Like if I had a Legion companion, would an NCR Trooper attack me on sight? No, that’s another stupid question. They don’t without the mod, why would they with it?

I know you cant see this. We miss you man.

"And so the Courier, who had cheated death in the cementery outside Goodsprings, cheated death once again, and again, and again, and again..."
-
Your Easy Pete idea probably would have worked. The game would have recognized every single Easy Pete as the same companion.
-
I love how you don’t play like a pro speed runner or someone trying to complete the game with maximum efficiency and instead you play like everyone else plays the game: just fucking around with anything and everything you can find.

I have never heard mitten squad so sad when the rad roach died
-
Hearing him talk about the radroach was the most human he's ever been on this channel, and its honestly really endearing
-
Mitten:"why, won't, you, DIE!?" General lee Oliver:"game scripts, son"

My favorite video that he had made. When I first watched I was crying laughing at how funny this video came out. Thank you for all the laughs, Paul.
-
Just want to point out that this was his first video when Lord Mitten from the house of Mitten expressed any feeling beside annoyance and frustration. He is a human after all.

"No, I did not beat Fallout New Vegas as a necromancer, I instead left 16 of my best beating Oliver senseless while I watched for his crimes against my previous play-throughs."

Paul pulls out weapon everyone pulls out weapons The radroach: Skibid doo de daa!
-
I wonder if you could recruit multiple Glowing Ones, equip a hazmat suit/ radiation suit and go into a crowded area and just wait until all the people die of radiation poisoning
-
"Birds aren't real anyway." The real birds were the friends you made along the way.

They are literally the "Mitten Squad" lol

"Salt, gathered from the tears of a thousand angels, restraining the essence of Easy Pete, the Hellhound. The Seed of Destruction. This I can promise, Easy Pete, for every one of you that falls, two shall arise."
