Say that the Apocalypse really does happen in 2012...

[Wolfram23]

My Fallout 3 chick. She steals what she needs, kills without remorse, conquers the wastelands, and would be fun in bed!

 

[Ieyland]

Jack Bauer... oh wait.

If I wanted someone to be my hero, Sam Fisher.

Or Batman.

Say that the Apocalypse really does happen in 2012... Regardless of how you imagine it happening (and there are oh so many ways according to the believers), the planet would be rendered practically uninhabitable or at least be left in a severely damaged state with most of the world's population annihilated.

So, say you're the only member of your family/friends/etc who make it through. When you emerge from hiding, there is apparently nothing for you anywhere. Everything is demolished and the world is a wasteland full of whatever your imagination can conjure.

But then you see THAT PERSON. That's right, THAT PERSON. That one video game character who laughs in the face of global catastrophe and is harder to kill than a cockroach on a nuclear doomsday.

The question is, though, who is this person? Who would you hope to see standing before you after emerging from the rubble? Which badass survivalist would you want to team up with to ensure your survival in the harsh new world where food is scarce and rare survivors are potentially very violent (and maybe even a little hungry)?

I clearly got this idea from the zombie topic, but it's different. Rather than naming off generic video game badasses with big guns, this is more about deciding on who would be able to survive off of very low resources and be great at building shelters and excellent at getting around. Essentially a survivalist who is a jack (or jill) of all trades.


I would probably go with Geralt from The Witcher. That guy's alchemy can do ANYTHING, I swear!!

I think it would be the doombringer himself, Kratos, sure it would be cool to see him at first but then the thought would come to you, "Fuck, there's no time to dig this grave".

Santa Christ

Santa Christ! Santa Christ! We all love Santa Christ.
He is Santa and Jesus. God damn, he's Santa Christ.
He atoned for all our sins, but he also likes pancakes.
He saved puppies from a fire and he also likes pancakes.
He played bass for Aerosmith! Reads to sick orphans, too.
He goes surfing in space, and makes really good fondue.
He shoots lasers from his eyes, hangs your curtains for free.
He'll fight monsters for fun and hang out with Mr. T.
Santa Christ, Santa Christ, Santa Christ, Santa Christ
You are the best and we love you, Santa Christ.

Jeez, I thought I was one of the only people who knew about that... So yeah, totally Santa Christ.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

The vault-dweller. No not him... the ORIGINAL vault dweller.

the vault dweller obviously. Mr. 101

Don't you people know your Fallout titles??? There was only ever ONE Vault Dweller and that was the protagonist from the first Fallout, local resident of Vault 13 or rather former resident. The Protagonist of Fallout 3, or Mr. 101 as Burningsok called him, was known as "The Lone Wanderer". *grunt*

you are correct, but he was called many things. 3dog called him the vault dweller a couple of times, hell I think 3dog even used both vault dweller and lone wanderer in the same sentence to describe 'Mr. 101' lol

I don't remember 3Dog ever calling you 'Vault Dweller' in Fallout 3, but then I haven't played that game in awhile and I didn't spend a great deal of time listening to 3Dog when I did.

 

[zyoto12]

Three Dog most definitely. I would carry him on my back and would listen to his rendition of 'I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire' and hearing his commentary on my action s throughout the new wasteland. He'd give me the truth, no matter how baaaaaaaaad it hurts

Best choice ever.

 

[Stuntcrab]

Francis, Bill or Ellis from the Left 4 Dead series, if possible then the whole l4d1 survivors

 

[pope_of_larry]

sonic the hedgehog... he will never die.

 

[Rewdalf]

Hm.
I'd have to go with a girl, since... You know, last two people on earth?
But I can't think of anyone who I'd... You know, like to spend the rest of my life with...
And they'd need to know how to survive, that's important too...
Krystal?
Yeah, I'm a little weirded out too... But at least I'm not gay like some of you...

 

[Guy32]

Jack Bauer.

 

[Warforger]

It would be some chick, since really if its a guy you can't have sex at all with women at all, since either they're mutated or dead.

soooo 2012? thats the latest deadline for the apocalypse is it?

Whoa whoa whoa... Hold up.... Surely you DO know about the whole 2012 thing??

Yah. Its just the latest predicted date for the Apocalypse, you have never seen Armageddon dates before 2012? This stuff happened all the time throughout history, last one being 2000.

 

[Z(ombie)fan]

I will be the Herald of Sinistar...

Beware he lives.
RUN RUN RUN.

Besides this whole 2012 crap is old. Just cause a hack makes a movie...and some dead race made calenders to that year...they died out way before that. So their end of the world came what in 1675? So they were wrong to begin with anyway...

Just means they made themselves a lot more junk calenders they never got to use. Imagine if your boss forced you to make calenders to the year 7899 and your race is dead by 6500 wouldn't ya feel a bit stupid?

mayans werent the only ones to 2012 for the end, multiple people with no knowledge of eachother picking THE SAME RANDOM-ASS YEAR is something weird isn't it?

two, sinistar is, supposedly, large enoguh to eat earth in one bite and would devour the GOD OF AWESOME on sight, let alone YOU, pathetic mortal. I hunger...


and three: my vote: IJI! she has armor only aliens from far in the future could break! a gun that when taken out of the games context is rediculously overpowered! a pacifist personality! (this is quite messed up though, she goes insane from all the murder if you decide to play it like an action game and kill everything) still, in a post apocalyptic wasteland, she is most qualified.

 

[Metrem]

Darth Vader because his voice is so badass...or maybe James Earl Jones...Boba Fett?

 

[wasalp]

DR.Freeman...why? Because I thrust his abilitie to save my life and be a great listener

Freemans abilitie

he wishes to thrust it

OT: Bear Grylls - lets see if we wants to eat animal droppings once theyve been drenched in nuclear fallout

wait was that suppose to be the vorgon?(at least I think its vorgon havent played in a while)

 

[Kaymish]

the lone wanderer she has a far better arse than either the vault dweller or the chosen one and can sweet talk any guy we meat in to giving us stuff

Spoiler

plus i blew up megaton just to be rid of Moira ... it didn't work in fact i change my vote to Moira the cow can survive a nuclear bomb and make it to underworld and set up a shop that's the kinda person i want i can have her invent either a voice changer for her or earplugs for me

Megas XLR

Who wouldn't want a giant ass robot waiting for them when they emerge out of the rubble?
Coop, Jaime and Kiva would be nice additions, but not necessary.

Still...

 

[Grayjack]

Duke Nukem. Hail to the king, baby!

 

[vento 231]

That guy from zombie land, no not the gay one, the cowboy with the amazing goatee that kinda looks like the guy from mercs 2, yeah that one.

 

[Canid117]

I will be too busy hunting down all the people who are saying "I told you so!" and beating them to death with a sledgehammer to notice "THAT PERSON."

you sir are a win. Hopefully Jamie would be dead though so I could take his place. Three is a heroic trio but four is a crowd.
