Marcus Companion

If you like this mod, please show your appreciation with a comment and/or endorsement. Splicing voice files is a painstakingly tedious process, and knowing there\'s an audience that enjoys my work motivates me to keep working on this and similar projects.

Other Mods By Me +===+===========================+ | 1 | Description & Features +===+===========================+ This mod allows you to recruit Marcus the Super Mutant, located at Jacobstown in Fallout New Vegas. Options to recruit him appear once you when you complete the quests \"Guess Who I Saw Today\" and \"Unfriendly Persuasion.\" It does not matter just HOW you finish those quests as long as you DON\'T FAIL THEM. So you can let Keene leave, shoot up the mercs, whatever, but don\'t go attacking Jacobstown or murdering anyone. You must pass either a speech check or a barter check (of 50 each); both are infinitely repeateable like most skill checks in the vanilla game. As a companion, Marcus features: - Fully voiced dialogue, including new lines painstakingly spliced from Michael Dorn\'s cameo role in New Vegas. - Full integration into the companion wheel. - A minigun and the classic Fallout super sledge (provided courtesy of DaiShiHUN) as default weapons. Can be toggled via dialogue. - A radio transceiver allows you to \"summon\" him to you should he get lost. Ask him about it in dialogue after hiring him. - Keeping him as a companion grants you the F. E. V. Diplomacy perk that gives you bonuses in price haggling when the hulking mutant is looming right behind you. - Ability to define a custom home for Marcus to hang out at, as well as sandbox mode while waiting. - Draws his weapon simultaneously with you while in aggressive mode, automatically drops into sandbox while you\'re sitting down, and can be explicitly told to hang out through dialogue. +===+===========================+ | 2 | Installation +===+===========================+ 1.
