Listen, as much as I've never ventured into the realm of LotR fanwork, Eowyn and Faramir are my OTP.

Imagine that. You're Aragorn. You're Isildur's heir. You inspire loyalty wherever you go. All who know you love you. Your people will follow you into the gates of hell. You're a deadly and valiant soldier, yet your hands also have magical healing powers. You save Middle Earth and become a great and beloved king.

You're own creator still says you're not good enough for Eowyn

This one's a classic.

Have you done "RUN! SHE'S A GHOST AND A BITCH!"

if you have then an alternative would be "every gender is hot in a suit"

both are good!

Socks go on in the bedroom with the rest of the clothes. Shoes go on in the hallway/entryway before leaving the residence. Waiting to put your socks on until you're almost out of the building is fucking insanity.

I’m having a spirited debate and need a larger sample size

No, this is normal. If my opponent in chess didn't gloat like this, or at least snarkily comment on the superiority of their forces over mine, I wouldn't be able to tell they were taking it seriously.

I got too excited while playing chess and told my opponent that I was going to slit his throat and slaughter him like a hog. something to work on for next time

I think it helps that Benny has a strong characterization outside of being the character foil. He has a distinct way of talking and dressing. The checkered suit is memorable! The circumstances you interact with him in also stand out. The utter disbelief he expresses when you find him for the first time, the cheeky but resigned dialogue at the Legion camp? These are cool, unique circumstances that are heavily rooted in your relationship with the character.

Do you even meet Kellogg again before you're there to kill him? I genuinely don't remember. I remember that he looks like Any Wastelander in his getup. And when he talks to you in the army base or whatever, it's generic Tough Guy™ brand dialogue. I'm gonna level with you, for all the attempts the narrative made to make me want revenge on Kellogg for kidnapping my son and killing my wife, I never really cared about him. He was ordered to go to a Vault and grab a baby. I'm much more invested in the people who gave that order, and we all know how badly the Institute fell on its face as a narrative entity.

Benny personally wronged me. He was the person behind the decision to rob and shoot me and the executor of the action. It was brutally and viscerally satisfying to walk up to him and watch him shit himself in New Vegas. In fact, I think I'm going to go watch that scene on YouTube right now.

it’s kind of crazy that both fallout new Vegas and fallout 4 have the same driving force for the first half of the narrative (find the guy who wronged you and make him pay) but Benny is so much more memorable and narratively interesting than Kellogg.

It’s a matter of a strong character foil versus a weak one, in my opinion.

Benny and the courier are very much alike. They are both ambitious people who are willing to do anything possible to stack the odds in their favour. Honestly, Benny and the courier are the same card, reversed.

The Sole Survivor and Kellogg are also intended to be character foils. The game tries to convince us of this with the scenes in Kellogg’s mind, where we see that he ‘isn’t so different’ from our protagonist after all. But we don’t know anything about Kellogg other than his backstory. How can he parallel the protagonist if we don’t know which traits he has? Which traits the two of them share?

(As a side note, I wish Fallout 4 had touched way more on the ‘Man/Woman Out of Time’ thing. The protagonist being frozen in the past + Kellogg being functionally immortal would’ve been really cool to explore! Especially in the context of grief!)

In the end, I think the reason Benny is a more powerful character foil is that he doesn’t disappear from the world when you kill him. The chairmen can mourn him, House will comment on it, and even NPCs across the Mojave will talk about Benny’s death!

In Kellogg’s case, the protagonist is basically the only person who knows he even existed! Once he’s dead HE’s DEAD! He disappears completely from the narrative! As soon as you leave fort Hagen, the game doesn’t bother looking back.

that’s why Benny is a more haunting force for new Vegas; particularly an independent courier. You are Benny’s legacy because you are what he leaves behind whether he likes it or not. People remember him as the couriers victim. Meanwhile, nobody remembers Kellogg at all. The memory of who Kellogg was dies with you, and you can choose to forget him.

I feel like people just don't think this shit through? "It'S rUdE tO rEbLoG tHiNgS fRoM pEoPlE yOu ArEn'T mUtUaLs WiTh" All right, wise guy, so the two thirds of the website who are mutuals with like two people just shouldn't interact with anyone else? Do you even consider the things you say or do you just sift through the garbage to find ethical stances nobody else wants?

its rude to reblog things from people you arent mutuals with fyi. :/

I guess maybe if Light was playing DDLC?

But I just don't see a program limited to one game figuring out real life murders.

Immune to the Death Note though, so she's got that going for her
