    What was your favorite perk to get in the game? I like the Wild Wasteland perk the most. I always played my character as constantly tripping balls while she wanders in the desert drinking when she isn't playing Klepto.

    Wild Wasteland is definitely one of my favorites, although I'm not sure which one I'd consider my absolute favorite. That's a good question.:rolleyes:

    I do not think I have a favorite perk about this game just yet. To me, they all seem to be about the same. And they have the same measure of perkness.

    Wild Wasteland and Bloody Mess for me. With those two perks, New Vegas plays almost like Fallout 1 and 2. And if you don`t pick up Wild Wasteland, you might miss out on a lot of random encounters and funny easter eggs, so there is that. :D

    Yeah, I totally forgot to pick this perk since I wanted perks that were different from the previous game. Guess it's time for a new game with that particular perk. I need to get lots of grenades for this:D

    Wild wasteland will always be my favourite perk. It takes a somewhat serious setting and throws in almost Monty Python like humour at times. It's so fun!

    Hmm, wild wasteland, is my favorite. I do try to not pick the same ones all the time, to change up the game a bit.

    That's what every middle schooler/high schooler enjoys about life/video games!

    I think Stonewall and the bloody mess perk was awesome. I like seeing guts all over.

    Wild Wasteland, obviously. I've always been biased towards perks which let you get special dialogue options/story events, because I felt like the other perks could easily be replaced by buffs related to my equipment, etc.

    Wild Wasteland and Bloody Mess as well! as Raz said, its awesome to have a perk that gives you more dialogue options, and bloody mess is so cool, I find myself yelling, whoaa! every time I see an enemy explode, it's just too funny!!

    Wild Wasteland, definitely! I loved the additions this park gives you, but Super Slam was also pretty cool.

    Black Widow. Seeing as most of the enemies are male, it makes for a handy starting perk. It's one way to get revenge on Benny too.

    Bloody mess is not only helpful, but also fun to use. I think it's also in Fallout 4, right? I wonder how much improved the gore is in that game.

    I like most perks but my favorites are Bloody Mess, Strong Back and Pack Rat ( I like to carry around a lot of stuff, so anything that helps with this is taken). Mainly I just try to avoid useless ones.
