Fallout 4 changed the Fallout franchise in a number of big ways, but arguably the biggest change is in the game’s weapon system. Every weapon can be modified to suit your play style. But there’s a weapon that doesn’t really fit in with the missile launchers, fully automatic rifles, and nuclear warheads. Can You Beat Fallout 4 With Only A Commie Whacker?

Can You Beat Fallout 4 With Only A Commie Whacker? (in text form)

I awoke in the bathroom and discovered how truly beautiful I am. The SPECIAL setup for this run is relatively standard for a Melee-only playthrough. Lots of points in Strength and Endurance, some in Luck to get the Idiot Savant perk later on, and the rest don’t matter too much. After the Great War, I found the first problem. Because this is a Commie Whacker only playthrough, I can’t use my fists or any of the weapons available in Vault 111. It wouldn’t be so bad if the Radroaches weren’t so annoying. You can’t pick up the Pip-Boy if you’re “in combat”. Put another way, you can’t simultaneously pick up the Pip-Boy and be a tasty snack for the roaches. Unfortunate. We could forgo the Pip-Boy for a little while and glitch ourselves out of the Vault. But that’s too easy. Instead, I lured the roaches down the hall, sprinted back through a door and the other end of the hall, and closed the door behind me. Then I crouched, waited until I was hidden, picked up the Pip-Boy, and left the vault.

Now there’s the issue of finding a Commie Whacker. Sure, I could just spawn one with console commands, but that’s boring. So I’ll have to travel to Nuka World to find one. The first thing I did was return to Sanctuary to get another SPECIAL point. Then it was off to Nuka World. The recommended level to be at before you enter Nuka World is 30. I’m level 2. The journey to the DLC entrance was long and hard, just like the shaft of the Commie Whacker.

The next issue was actually getting into Nuka World. There are Gunners patrolling the area, not a big deal, but the Assaultron is something to be concerned about. I ran inside the train station and got fluffed to death by the Assaulton’s mouth. Why didn’t I just use Stimpaks and run like the wind? Because, my dear boy, I didn’t have any Stimpaks. I forgot them.

After that shitshow, I backtracked to Vault 111 to pick of a few Stimpaks that were lying around. But I knew that would not be enough. I’d need some sort of Powered Armor. On the way to said Powered Armor I stole a lot of tomatoes from a farm, I let Preston kill the Raiders outside the Museum of Freedom, picked up a Fusion Core, and left Preston to die in the Museum of Freedom as I ran to the roof and stole the Power Armor. I had armor. I had supplies, I had a pocket full of room-temperature tomatoes, I had everything I’d need to get through Nuka World.

The Assaultron once again tried to get inside my pants, but the Power Armor protected me and hiding in the train station threw her off my trail long enough for me to restore power to the train and be on my way to the greatest amusement park ever devised. After arriving in Nuka World, I had to traverse the Gauntlet of Extreme Pain Mayhem and Misfortune. All things being equal, it wasn’t that bad. The wooden floor falling out was annoying, the turrets constantly shooting were a pain, and the gas room annoyed me because a bunch of Radroaches pinned me against a wall and tried to do things to my armor. But I got through it all with only a few hundred scratches.
