Here we see the first boss: a ceiling fan.
Why don't you just relax a second? Get your bearings. Let's see what the damage is. How about your name? Can you tell me your name?
Hmm.

Now, I hope you don't mind, but I had to go rooting around there in your noggin to pull all the bits of lead out. I take pride in my needlework, but you'd better tell me if I left anything out of place.
Bethesda's gamebryo engine is well known for it's incredible lifelike and pleasing to view facpfhahah ok that's not an actual thing the faces are pretty terrible. Here we can change our look around using the thing Doc Mitchell gave us.
Good. Why don't you walk down to the end of the room? Over by that vigor tester machine there. Take it slow now. It ain't a race.
Now we have control of Kip and can move him around Doc Mitchell's house. Kip is just thirty years old and already walking like a pro. 
The vigor tester is a pretty funny way to choose your SPECIAL stats (strength, perception, endurance, charisma, intelligence, agility and luck). I'll shut up so you can get a good look at the choices.
And our final stats.
Doc Mitchell wastes no time making fun of us. <

What do you say you take a seat on my couch and we go through a couple questions? See if your dogs are still barking.
... 
House.
Shelter.
Night.
Dream.
Bandit.
STAB 
Light.
Dark.
Mother.
Human shield.
Okay. Now I've got a few statements. I want you to tell me how much they sound like something you'd say. First one. "Conflict just ain't in my nature."
Hell no. You push people, you get pushed BACK! 
"I ain't given to relying on others for support."
Yes! Other people are terrible! I can solve all of my problems. With a jug of whiskey. And bullets.
"I'm always fixing to be the center of attention."
Absolutely. With a face like this you always are.
"I'm slow to embrace new ideas."
Yes. I waited 30 years to be shot in the head and trapped in a room naked with a creepy old guy.
"I charge in to deal with my problems head-on."
noo what if I get hurt 
Now Doc Mitchell will show us some ink blots and we have to identify them.
It actually kind of looks like that optical illusion where it's either a vase or two ladies depending on how you look at it, but I didn't see that option so I picked the closest thing.
This doesn't look like anything. Maybe two guys playing patty cake or something.
... and here are our test results. It doesn't really matter since you can change them anyway, but we'll go with this.
Just a formality. Ain't like I expect to find you have a family history of being shot in the head.
HA HA DOC YOU CARD YOU
Here we can select traits. I'm not doing any of them for this run, but I'll probably show off Wild Wasteland later. Sadly there are no dogs wearing sunglasses when you turn it on.
The Doc leads us out of the house, and I thank him by stealing his money and hat.
I hope you don't mind but I gave the note a look. I thought it might help me find a next of kin. But it was just something about a platinum chip.
They call it a Pip-Boy. I grew up in one of them vaults they made before the war. We all got one. Ain't much use to me now, but you might want such a thing, after what you been through. I know what it's like, having something taken from you.
oh shit he knows I stole his hat
This guy just saved my life, was ok with me stealing a bunch of his shit, psychologically evaluated me and gave me some cool watch thing. What should I say? "Thank you." I owe you big time, brother!" "You're a saint!" Wait. "You..."
Didn't have much choice, I'm afraid. But I understand the sentiment. You should talk to Sunny Smiles before you leave town. She can help you learn to fend for yourself in the desert. She'll likely be at the saloon.
Anyway, you ever get hurt out there, you come right back. I'll fix you up. But try not to get killed anymore.
Ok, now that we're back in the game, it might be a good time to explain Hardcore mode. Fallout: New Vegas allows you to play in a new Hardcore mode that greatly increases the challen-
oh well thanks game
Now we'll just step outside and
JESUS CHRIST MY POOR GOON EYES ARE NOT ADJUSTED TO THE SUN
Hey where the heck are we anyway??

Next time: we go talk to a robot, chill with a dog and shoot a lizard in the face.
