Magic for New Vegas?

[Halstrom]

Looking at Skyrim, I can see so many extra options for Sexual deviacy using Magic & magical creatures, but I also like Guns & Tech too much.

So wondering what the generals consensus was on if wwe were to create a Magic system utilising Sexout, sort of having maybe half the spells Sex based or at least requiring sexualy aquired components? Linked to sex skills perhaps to aquire components?

Do we need a Lore change perhaps to go with this?

This may be my best hope to avoid Skryim in the wait for Fallout4

If anywhere had a community capable of this it would be here

What would we call it?

[Guest Donkey]

sorry but i voted for no, i don't really see how magic would fit in fallout since it is post apocalyptic game, not fantasy like oblivion. As for skyrim it would make far more sense since it is just like oblivion fantasy game.

 

 

Let's built tanks and f16, cars etc.. and place it in oblivion, that makes little sense too.

I think that rather than calling it "Magic" call it psychic powers instead. All that radiation has got to cause a mutation at some point - so why not psychic powers?

Yeah I thought about the Psycic/Mutant Superpowers thing but it still needs to be more beleivable than magic

No problems guys, I'm just testing the waters, I suspect a lot of the Skyrim people would be just as opposed to miniguns & Power Armor too

It really needs to start from a game genre with both alread I suppose. I should limit my checking out of Skyrim theads here

 

[Guest Donkey]

i got Mehrun Dagon into fallout but that was more like funny project, not real game play. and not something i will release. That was just to keep me busy till skyrim editor comes out.

Naa magic Would be a bad Idea In Fallout in my opinion

 

Maybe Hypnosiss,

A Serum or Liquid When Injected Makes the actor Hypnotized or under control

Like a Lil Dart Gun that fires these and U can Have Ur way etc

 

Although there is rape punch , rape on drugged chance etc , and other slave type plugins

Maybe the hypnosis idea is a waste .

 

What Fallout NV needs actually are some awesome Quests

 

Cheers

There are psychic powers in Fallout, but they're so limited (except for the Master's) and so rare it wouldn't feel right for the player to have anything approaching magic.

If you really want some sort of magic analogue in NV, I recommend using SCIENCE!

 

Seriously, with the sort of wacky stuff from Old World Blues, it's a good way of getting in more exotic elements without completely ruining verisimilitude. Look at Doctor Dala, goes into ecstasy just watching the Courier breathe.

 

Want to make the ladies go crazy over you? Kill some very male deathclaws, extract some "samples", distill it in the lab and bang, got a killer cologne with deathclaw pheromones. We at SCIENCE! are equal opportunity so women aren't left out either. We have more formulations so strong, you can get a man without ever having to leave the kitchen! What do you mean that doesn't make sense? It's SCIENCE!

 

Those silly tribals with their quaint notions of "fertility foods". Sure, eating brock flower when a woman's most fertile in her cycle increases chances of pregnancy but eating raw foods from the wasteland? Barbaric! No, grind up the flowers, synthesize the chemicals, add a dash of stimulants and some "other" ingredients and voila, a pill which guarantees a pregnancy if sex is conducted straight after!* Science! What can't it do?#

 

*SCIENCE! is not liable for any unwanted or inter-species pregnancies that result from using our methods. Not recommended for tribals, raiders, fiends, brahmin, geckoes, deathclaws, ghouls, mutants, supermutants, nightkin, people with sub-dermal implants, jet users, psycho users, buffout users or any sort of drug users. Use at your own risk. If pain persists, walk if off you pussy.

Maybe it becomes based on your radiation level - the higher it is the more potent your abilites.

 

So that if you do decide to go down the psychic route then you run the risk of a seriously high radiation poisoning, but that is countered by strange psychic stuff.

[mundaneunspeakable]

There seems to have been some effects on the Chinese sites - crosswingdolls mod. They seem to be 'magical girl' inspired :/ So not the shamanism or Clarke techmagic people are looking for.

[dogface]

Real-world magic could fit the theme in Utah. Obviously you couldn't hurl fireballs and summon fantastic beasts, but if your speech was high enough to convince the damn dirty tribals you were a wizard you could have access to some basic faith healing, charm spells, blessings and curses.

 

Where I live, some of the traditional-living tribes still used wizards as their executioners up to about the 1970's, and their curses usually did result in death. So having that type of placebo/faith-based "magic" when dealing with such strongly superstitious and religious people isn't farfetched at all.

[Guest Loogie]

Maybe it becomes based on your radiation level - the higher it is the more potent your abilites.

 

All the established stuff is fairly mild in normal humans - the exception being the Forecaster - with psychic powers amplified by FEV exposure. I don't think it's plausible abilities to give the Courier.

 

Now, as BlueSkyMine suggested, a bunch of SCIENCE! producing the same results, like orgasm-inducing rayguns and whatnot, that would be the way to go. And hilarious.

 

 

[Silk]

Thats a thought - do we hae any animations for Mr. Handy yet?

[Guest Donkey]

nope, none yet. right now i am not even sure how the robots will look there is no dick mesh for them.

ROFL!!!!!!!!! :D :D

Play portal much???

 

Thanks I need that laugh.....FOR SCIENCE!!!

They've got enough tentacley bits to make up for it though, right?

 

It would be nice to be able to get something like that, and more group sex other than just "How about".

 

But I digress.

 

Aside from a rape gun, what else can we possibly get?

LOL, well that seems to be the way to go, the good thing about science is you don't need a central system like mana pools, magic points etc., it's all item linked or maybe radiation level linked

ROFL!!!!!!!!! :D :D

Portal?! FFFFFfffff...

 

SCIENCE! has been around for far' date=' [i']far[/i] longer than those Aperture hacks. WE were irradiating test subjects before they even picked up a wrench!

 

Comedy aside, there's lots of stuff to crib from fallout. The brains in the Big MT used a suppression field to control the Courier's violent tendencies. Not such stretch to have a lust field working its way into the brain.

 

Want to summon creatures? Teleportation, that's the ticket. Have a personal army arrive on your doorstep at the push of a button. Maybe even capture bots or something like an analogue to Chain Beasts.

 

Of course, SCIENCE! requires power so using batteries or a charge level as a limit would fit nicely with things. Not unlike a vibrator running out of power at an inconvenient moment.

[GSBmodders]

if things were done in a resident evil type of way it could work, but that again is not magic but genetic mutation. there are plenty of umbrella type culprits available in new vegas and fallout 3 to pin this on and from some of the inter office emails and notes i read in my exploration it would be kind of lore friendly too

[gregathit]

Holy Hell that is a brilliant idea!!! Now that I think on it I do remember seeing various emails and notes that would play right into this type of thing.

 

Good Call!!!
