Containment What If?

Re: What if Chris was a real honest to GodBear police office

He'd try to throw his weight around and get his ass beaten.

Chris will drive without a license; I even think Barb would tell him to do so. He won't avoid legal scrutiny for too long, so, he'll get busted good for it sooner rather than later, but that's been well said.

That said, from perusing a map:
inside 1/2th of a mile is a Dunkin Donuts, a Chinese Restaurant and Fabios Pizza.
I put Walmart and CVS both at around 3 Miles away.

Now 3 miles isn't a fun walk, and it might very well be beyond OPL's ability, but I'm not in athletic shape either and I was able to go around 7 miles in one shot. Walking to Walmart and Back would be no fun at all for me, I'd probably have to bring a 2 liter with me and buy an extra one from Walmart to do it, but I could probably manage 20-30 pounds of groceries on a backpack.

I think the average person would be really unhappy at having to do it, particularly doing it in suboptimal conditions, but be able to do it and frankly get better at it every time--it might even become an important source of exercise; that's something like 2 1/2 to 3 hours of walking. If Chris actually did this, it would probably do him a LOT of good even if he made the trip once a week.

He could always buy a cart or something online to help carry things. He would be less depressed too since exercise and sunlight help against depression.

I see Chris as more taking a Walmart cart home and returning with it next week.

He owns New Vegas and I remember him bragging about the deal he got on it. He has barely or never played it. I think it has too much dialogue for his liking. It doesn't help that at first glance it looks like a pure FPS.

There's no "Seduce Sunny Smiles" dialog option.

He'd never leave the vault because Amata refuses to go with him and become his sweetheart. He got the vault door open like she said ; she basically owes him sex now, right?

If Chris knew what the word metaphor meant, he might use it to define that very situation.



I really don't see him managing to be successful at any of the Fallout games. There's far too much for the player to manage between the SPECIAL points allotment and then the skills spread, not wasting ammo and/or weapon maintenance, making conscious choices about what to carry and what to leave behind ($20 says that his inventory would be like a miniature version of the Hoard), and thinking through interaction choices.

For Fallout 3 I'd bet good money that his quitting point would be when he walks into Megaton and tries to loot the armory, only to have the whole town swarm and murder him for trying to steal from their supplies. In New Vegas I think it'd be either stumbling into Primm or heading up to the prison without talking to anyone initially.

What if Chris is even fatter?

 

[The Dude]

Chris on the open road, full drag Tomgirl, thumb in the air, My Little Pony backpack slung over his shoulder...maybe even hiking up his skirt to show some thigh. Discuss.

 

[AtroposHeart]

Dead.

 

[PhilPickleman]

Who would pick him up?

EDIT: Nevermind. Trolls would.

 

[SodomyRocket]

^ I'm kinda stupidly optimistic in my assumption Chris could be a responsible citizen.

It would be hilarious if he kept using the bb gun in fallout 3 realized it kept getting killed then called James a troll for giving it to him.

I could see him with a cardboard sigh saying this:

TRUE and HONEST TOMGIRL hitchhiker
I don't even own any firearms
need ride so I can find a boyfriend free sweetheart from the ground up

 

[Sakamoto]

A Cadillac with tinted windows pulls over and the passenger door pops open. Having been trying unsuccessfully to get a lift for hours, Chris is elated someone has finally stopped, and it's even a nice car (Chris won't accept rides in vehicles that cost under $30,000, are over 10 years old, that don't have heating and air conditioning, or a good stereo system.). He wastes no time and jumps in and closes the door as the driver pulls back into traffic. Chris makes sure his seat belt is fastened as the driver asks "Where you headed?". Chris starts to answer "I need to go to C-ville to the GameStop, but first stop at the McDonald's so I-" finally looking over to the driver, Chris sees to his horror that it is the PickleMan.

 

[Some JERK]

He could get picked up by half a dozen people and probably still wouldn't make it to the next mile marker.

 

[JarlaxleBaenre]

He would get injured in the demolition derby that would ensue once the ebin weens hear about Chris hitchhiking and head to the spot to pick him up.

He'd attempt to shoot all the JERKS so he can hit on their girlfriends. But he'd end up shooting himself in the foot

We would be in jail for the poster campaign.

I'm pretty sure everyone would assume he was a gay prostitute.
Which is a total lie, he's not a prostitute.

Yeah, I can totally see Chris getting "hitchhiking" confused with "free taxi service."

 

[Jackie Chin]

I always wondered if Chris would actually "run away" from Barb and leave 14BC (I don't think he would, but I just thought of it since he's under her "authority" now and might be a note by her always looking over his shoulder or whatever he does). Another thing what would he take with him, out of everything we know he had? I think he might take his pocket knife, his gitar, and maybe his PS3. Maybe money too if it isn't out of his reach or if he forgets it.

Re: What if Chris was a real honest to GodBear police office

He'd assume that he's above the law and go kill Snyder, Mary Lee Walsh, that one woman from Walmart, ect.
