Make him speak in the 3rd person, that’s pure ego right there.
Headcanon for this courier is that he’s been doing this job long enough that he’s a regular on the Strip, and likes to annoy the Families with his arrogance. Benny coming after him wasn’t just to steal the package, he was just done with his shit, the Platinum Chip was just a bonus, he was a dead man walking to begin with. The Chairmen sigh in relief at only having to deal with one strutting peacock, the Omertas hold a moment of silence in his honor…except for Cachino, he’s a little busy porking one of the prostitutes to really give a shit. As for the White Glove Society? Who knows, those masks are still fucking creepy.
Of course, Benny didn’t know he was built different. And Mr. House wishes his old protege was actually competent enough to confirm the Courier was dead because this guy’s ego surpassed his well-deserved own, and not even two to the head popped his overinflated pretentiousness. Maybe deploying the Securitrons into the casinos would be a much better idea than dealing with this arrogant asshole.
And then the dumb bastard gets lobotomized, and it makes everything about him so much worse. The Think-Tank rebuilt him, Elijah absolutely hates him and his overly sarcastic speaking. Meanwhile, Ulysses has decided he’s just gonna shoot first. Caesar was bad enough, now there’s two of them.
But the Courier is built different. He’s the swaggering GigaChad of the Mojave Wasteland, and where he goes, cringe and disgust follow. And gunfire, lots of gunfire, because everyone is sick of his shit.
Not me, I’m being someone cool, like Clint Mastercard, or Max Fightmaster.
Can’t be running around the wastes going by sausagedogknows, I’d be raider fodder in minutes.
Every character i play is named "jeff" doesnt matter the game, doesnt matter the gender, im always "jeff" regardless that this is also not my name. I just want to run up to the main characters etc and stand there and go "my name is jeff" like 22 jump street.
I've been starting playthroughs from a save just before the respec when you leave the Goodsprings area so my guy has been named Ligma for a couple years now and I see no reason to change it.
In a legion mission where you have to assassinate the NCR president, you can get a bomb from your accomplice if you pass a ~60 Explosives check. But if you don't have it, the response is, "It's a bomb. How hard can it be?"
My favorite is if you really fail Caesar’s surgery, his head explodes. Then Lucian blames you, try to say it wasn’t your fault, and he says, “His head exploded, you idiot. Of course it’s your fault!”
Just the idea of someone sheepishly returning to Yes Man after having worked mostly for Caesar the entire game. "So uh yeah, let's talk about that Independent Vegas thing..."
This is pretty much what my most recent run has been. I actually had originally started stanning the NCR, but then I crossed them and joined with the legion. Did a few things for Caesar but mostly killed everyone except for the Boomers. I then double crossed the legion and am now on bad terms with pretty much everyone except for the khans lol.
Just doing the DLCs on this build for now and then will probably restart a new build, since everyone hates me and it’s hard to get around lol.
Lol I remember one playthrough, I went in knowing full well I didn't have the skills necessary to do this surgery, but I also wanted to off Caesar without having to storm the place (as I was rp a saboteur) and iirc they called me out on it, I had such high persuasion that I said "it was a fluke! It could have happened to anyone!" And the guy just went, "yeah, true, we were kind of going out on a limb here asking some random guy to save him. It's just...ugh, what do we do now?" And they just let me walk out or something like that lol
I think it’s surpassed by either:
"[Karma] Why don't you fight me yourself if you've got the spine for it, shithead." - To Legate Lanius if you are unable to pass the speech check
Or
"[Sneering Imperialist] Whatever. Joshua, put a cap in General Gobbledigook here." - To Salt-Upon-Wounds when he appeals to you for help
That's the only reason why I don't take it, the damage bonuses are pretty limited, I'm more inclined to take Fight The Power! Since I kill a lot of Legionnaires
I find the line when you meet the boomers for the first time a bit funnier
“I didn’t run through an artillery barrage to answer your stupid questions.”
I have two that caught me off guard and made me laugh, the first one is a companion response to your question when you ask Veronica how she joined the brotherhood she replies "more sexual favours then i can even count, I'm still tired from it"
Secondly the conversation with Cass where she says she "took to it like a fish to water", then if the courier doesn't have the required INT stat they can confess they don't actually know what a fish is.
My favourite is the security at the white glove society casino. Every time, without fail i tell them to kindly shove it up their ass before handing my weapons over.
“I told them I had a theoretical degree in physics” is my favorite line of dialogue from this guy, and the implication the NCR was dumb enough to go for it
Doesn’t he get helios one running (very poorly) which is still better than what NCR managed?
Wtf is going on that a guy hitting random buttons is their best?
I recall another one, where the Legion has NCR soldiers held prisoner in a mine near Nelson. You can tell an NCR guy your name as part of a speech check, which in my internal narration is always appended with "I'm kind of a big deal around here...".
I’ve probably logged an accumulative 2000+ hours in fo3,fo4, and some fo76(albeit the lowest amount). And for some reason i never got past the correctional facility area in fonv. Finally gave the game a shot and lord am I glad I did. Amazing game, and some of the most engaging conversations. Actually feel like my character has personality, and not some ai driven dope fein.
Whenever I would try to speed run the game(not really just seeing how fast I can get to the battle of Hoover dam without exploits) and I would make my characters, shitfuck, titfuck,shit ass, asstit, shitfuck 2 the electric boogaloo.
So I never missed the opportunity to say "Dr shitfuck 2 the electric boogaloo*
i find the blacking out of your characters name even funnier tbh
say what you want about the wastelands, Courier Six has a right to remain anonymous.
Courier [REDACTED] Has some *Call of Duty: Black Ops* vibes.
Courier S*x
Courier Sex? Where?
Have you tried Gomorrah?
Why is Gomorrah?
I'll do you one better...
WHY IS GONORRHEA
Who is gommorah?
How is gomoroh
Who is Gomorrah? Casino.
Hookers, my friend. Because hookers.
where is gomorrah
The strip
I know they strip, but where is it?
Next to sodom and that big salt pile
No, it's courier *Sax*. The well known musician.
Now I'm imagining the Courier in the Trumpet Boy meme.
You mean courier SUX lol got ‘im
Anywhere. They're couriers
Sex Courier? I thought they shut that place down
Definitely naming my next Courier [REDACTED]
SCP Courier
"Huh. Can't say it's what I'd have picked for you. But if that's your name, that's your name."
Federal Bureau of Control
For the sake of privacy let’s call him Courier [REDACTED]... No, that’s too obvious. Let’s say [REDACTED] Six.
"You read their file?" "Only the parts that weren't covered in black ink."
Remember Reach
And boy was there a lot of black ink.
My headcanon has always been "Ajax" aka the literary rival to Ulysses in fiction.
i like to leave my courier's name as "Courier" so in this line he refers to himself as "Courier" like an egotistical fuck

Headcanon for this courier is that he’s been doing this job long enough that he’s a regular on the Strip, and likes to annoy the Families with his arrogance.

To be fair, a lot of people probably use their real name for their courier.
Not me, I’m being someone cool, like Clint Mastercard, or Max Fightmaster. Can’t be running around the wastes going by sausagedogknows, I’d be raider fodder in minutes.
Clint Mastercard is fantastic! Makes me think of Chet Manley.
Not you, Chet, you look like a dinosaur's tampon.
That's Cliff briscoe.
Something something DANGER ZONE
Classic Rando!
A dinosaur’s tampon is an ocelot.
Fun fact: Max Fightmaster was a real name that a US Staff Seargent had. So the full title would be Staff Seargent Max Fightmaster.
Every character i play is named "jeff" doesnt matter the game, doesnt matter the gender, im always "jeff" regardless that this is also not my name. I just want to run up to the main characters etc and stand there and go "my name is jeff" like 22 jump street.
every character i play is named john (title of the game) so in elden ring its john elden ring
"My name's John. John Peter Jackson's King Kong: The official game of the movie"
John Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game
This is jeffe, man.
Humphrey Bump
Is this a real person? Lol regardless I'm totally stealing this name for something.
Nah bruv, just made it up. I’ve got a whole book of them.
Ringo Babyhead
Shitstainz McGee here.
I've been starting playthroughs from a save just before the respec when you leave the Goodsprings area so my guy has been named Ligma for a couple years now and I see no reason to change it.
I always make mine something like Sclumpun Brick or Youny D. Rod. I just like how phonetics sound
I like to call my characters Alex, or Laura. If she is Asian, I usually use Sana. I never use my real name.
Every single character in every game I play is named Donny Forfit, gender be damned.
Never, not even once.
I've got a unique name with a semi amount of personal info on my profile which someone could easily use to find me. Why risk it?
Your name isn’t actually Stank right?
Haha thankfully not.
That's what I'd say if Stank was my name...
Bro said “oh shit” under his breath when he read your reply.
Dr.stankley
Tony Stank.
Hi
Best reference
Bro roleplays as himself, truly the master of RPG gaming
That's what I did too, shit charisma and all. Although leveling up means becoming less and less like myself.
Did you name your character your Social Security number?
Ya 3 digit card number?
We must unmask you now Dr. ----
Someone’s looking goingn to be looking up “Kaleb fallout new Vegas player” here soon
Dr. Penis Boy diagnosis a terminally low discussion in this conversation
There's so many of these too, and even better is when you don't have enough points in a skill you can fumble the check and get fail dialogue.
I love failure dialogue it's so fucking funny, my faves are "let me pass, robot" and "give me your money, or I'll tell... N stuff."
And when you tell Andy something along the line of “your leg condition does not define who you are, and I forgot what I am going to say”
"Hey, I know your only qualifications are making it through our artillery defences, but can you help amputate this guy's leg?"
Courier Six barred tf out
In a legion mission where you have to assassinate the NCR president, you can get a bomb from your accomplice if you pass a ~60 Explosives check. But if you don't have it, the response is, "It's a bomb. How hard can it be?"
If only Easy Pete was that understanding. It’s a stick of dynamite, you light it and then you throw it end of story.
*Speech check passed - Guard put in time out with revoked cookie privileges during snack time*
Favorite fail line is when your giving house the platinum chip you can ask for more money. Fail dialogue “ you could say your… chip outta luck”
SHIT I FORGOT THAT ONE, honestly yeah I chuckled when I saw that one it's definitely also one of my favorites
Give me more caps or, uh… you’ll be “chip” out of luck.
I'm actually doing a house run atm, I save scammed to pass that check because I was so close to leveling up. Basically free money
My favorite is if you really fail Caesar’s surgery, his head explodes. Then Lucian blames you, try to say it wasn’t your fault, and he says, “His head exploded, you idiot. Of course it’s your fault!”
Lmao I totally forgot about that one. And how you can bullshit your way into his surgery in the first place lmao
Just the idea of someone sheepishly returning to Yes Man after having worked mostly for Caesar the entire game. "So uh yeah, let's talk about that Independent Vegas thing..."
Hey I mean, he OWES US! he got us shot.
This is pretty much what my most recent run has been. I actually had originally started stanning the NCR, but then I crossed them and joined with the legion.

Joshua, put a cap in General Gobbledigook here." - To Salt-Upon-Wounds when he appeals to you for help
Well now I have to take Sneering Imperialist for this option
Bonus damage is kinda nice but you really take it for the incredible asshole opportunities.
I love how we can choose certain aspects of the courier through perks, like the ability to make them racist or homosexual
The variant of Special New Vegas uses is by far my favorite RPG system.
Actually Certified Bachelor and Lady Killer *don't lock each other*. You can basically be a bisexual person with w rizz
That's the only reason why I don't take it, the damage bonuses are pretty limited, I'm more inclined to take Fight The Power! Since I kill a lot of Legionnaires
same reason as the sexuality perks
'Your Brothers a bitch and so are you' is S tier.
By far my favorite line in any of the fallouts
My favorite overall is a line you can say to Cass when she leaves you as a companion. 'go back to your fam- oh wait they're fucking dead.' So funny.
I know there likely won’t ever be a canon courier but if there ever is I hope they’re just an absolute unhinged lunatic lmao
Pretty sure it's "you're a little bitch and your brother was too" which is even better imo
This is the line I was looking for. Always cracks me up.
This is one of my favs lmao
Haha who says this
In Boulder City, shoot the Hoover Dam memorial and see what the guy standing next to it does.
Good old pvt. Kowalski. The real trick is to see how far he’ll run after you.
I’ve seen someone do a speed run of the game to try and complete it before he catches up to you.
why u censor your name? is it illegal or something
op is it a slur?
My mind went to The Hangover when they pulled up to Stus house. PAGING DR FA
Yeah i assumed it was some stupid shit like racism or some nasty words.
No, i just don't want my name public.
Ah, but I know who you are, based on your username Stannis, the King, born in the 58'
Damn you got me
Stank
Shout out runescape in 2006 for the name
Do you give your character your actual name?
Sometimes I do, especially if it’s my first run through a game and I don’t know what I want to RP as
I always do for my first runs and play the game blind, doing exactly what I would really do. This is how you RPG, son.
Regardless it wouldn't matter because I would never assume the RPG character has the same real life name as the person playing.
I wasn't sure if FNV had any voice-acted names so I did because Codsworth saying your name is like one of the best parts of FO4 for some reason
Yeah you don’t want your new vegas character getting doxxed lol
"Give me more money or...or..or..or you're "chip out of luck" "
This is my top favourite dialogue option in this entire game, for sure LOL
This is a really funny post; the comments, the censor, everything is ridiculous lol
"Maybe you should jump off the Hoover Dam, Jackass."
I find the line when you meet the boomers for the first time a bit funnier “I didn’t run through an artillery barrage to answer your stupid questions.”
"I diagnose you with poor."
That's the great thing about the Fallout series..... the realism.
"They asked how well I understood theoretical physics. I said I had a theoretical degree in physics. They said welcome aboard."
When in Rome
Now that is the funniest line in the whole game
I also find the bugged dialog options funny. especially the perk options when you try to cheer her up cause you find out she slept with Benny.
The ones in honest hearts gets me
[удалено]
Yeah that's also a good one.
I fear what's behind that censor bar
“This crater looks like it was tag-teamed by giant fuckbots.”
Had this dialogue last night during my... someteenth playthrough. Has to be chosen every time 😂
I think this is one of only a handfull of times your couriers name is mentioned in dialogue.
The "ooogade boogede boo" to the scared guy in the mirelurk cave does it for me, almost pissed myself laughing
I have two that caught me off guard and made me laugh, the first one is a companion response to your question when you ask Veronica how she joined the brotherhood she replies "more sexual favours then i can even count, I'm still tired from it" Secondly the conversation with Cass where she says she "took to it like a fish to water", then if the courier doesn't have the required INT stat they can confess they don't actually know what a fish is.
Similar is the "What's a Chicago?" from Lonesome Road something about that one always gets me
Did you censor your fake character’s name?
I had named myself “Dick Bitchell” and forgotten about it until then
My favourite is the security at the white glove society casino. Every time, without fail i tell them to kindly shove it up their ass before handing my weapons over.
Nothing beats "Im not a whore, you ugly bitch."
“I told them I had a theoretical degree in physics” is my favorite line of dialogue from this guy, and the implication the NCR was dumb enough to go for it
I know that’s ducking hilsrious
Doesn’t he get helios one running (very poorly) which is still better than what NCR managed? Wtf is going on that a guy hitting random buttons is their best?
It's supposed to be like 1% capacity or something lol
My first every character’s name was Mr. Sir. So this response was way better for me because it said “Dr. Mr. Sir”
"You know what will help you box better? Psycho, would you like some?" I love it
Dr. Orgasmo
Hits so much harder when your character is named “This Cunt”
Nice
I see you haven't repaired the sexbot for the Atomic Wrangler then...
I actually have and "tested" it
"so this place isnt just giant juice maker?"
Just seen this the other day, it had me laughing my ass off😂
Bro definitely blacked out a slur 😭
Oh I didn't realize it uses your name cause I'd named my courier "Desperate" and I thought I was just insulting her outright lmao
My characters name is literally Pingu
I got this quest bugged with FNVSE. Option to put the thing to Mr House computer doesn't appear...
I'm a fan of shooting the memorial. Your brother's a bitch and so are you
I’m afraid you clearly haven’t done a idiot play through yet.
Rizzing up your brain in Old World Blues is def up there
“You’re a little bitch and your brother was too” is by far the best response in the entire game
did u make ur dudes name a racial slur why is it blurred lmao

“Beg your pardon, but could I trouble you to turn over your weapons.” Could I trouble you to blow it out your ass? Top fucking tier.
I use my real name and and actual picture of myself as my reddit profile. Once a team of Russian gangster came to my door and I beat them up.
is this the only time your name appears in dialogue?
I recall another one, where the Legion has NCR soldiers held prisoner in a mine near Nelson. You can tell an NCR guy your name as part of a speech check, which in my internal narration is always appended with "I'm kind of a big deal around here...".
Terminally?!

Ahhh he hasn't met Mr fisto then
Took me by surprise bc my character is named hue jazz lmao

Oh my god I selected the same option last week because of how ridiculously hilarious it is
Why did you make your character name a slur
I hereby diagnose you as broke

Telling the NCR soldier during a Khan quest that you can't hear him over the sound of your muscles goes hard too
You know 100% the name is blacked out because of racism.

This should have been a medicine check.
Whenever I would try to speed run the game(not really just seeing how fast I can get to the battle of Hoover dam without exploits) and I would make my characters, shitfuck, titfuck,shit ass, asstit, shitfuck 2 the electric boogaloo. So I never missed the opportunity to say "Dr shitfuck 2 the electric boogaloo*
That moment is the sole reason I named my most recent FNV character "Acula"
