But I might need 99 of every potion for the last boss!
So I decided while playing Fallout 4 (around the time it came out) that I was going to try to break this habit, because it meant I never got to use any of the cool shit.
I made this decision while retaking the castle, fighting the queen crab thing. I used all the mini nukes I had on it.
Those who have played the game knows what happens next… after killing the queen, the king emerges. Way bigger, way harder to kill.
I’ve been a hardcore no exceptions hoarder ever since
Maybe I’m having a mandela effect moment but I don’t remember a “way bigger, way harder to kill” mirelurk king after the queen. The mirelurk king in-game is the size of a deathclaw tops and I think it’s stats are definitely weaker when compared to the queens. Is there a special one that spawns after the queen that I am forgetting?
You are definitely right, not sure what this guy is on about.
This is why I like roguelike mechanics. Permadeath encourages me not to hoard and the hunger clock encourages me not to grind.
I still hoard and often just die on my pile of loot :(
Reminds me of when I finished the first Max Payne.
I was all kitted out. Rocket launchers, full deagles, you name it. I used my little starter pistol all throughout this fight on the tower that I thought was leading up to the very end… only to have credits roll while I sat there with a full fat armory of glorious destruction - forever unused.
