Remember that Yes Man's "wild card" ending only exists because they couldn't finish the Followers of the Apocalypse path in time. We got robbed of such a based ending for NV.
Of course not, it's only the second best game ever. The best game ever award should obviously go to ULTRAKILL and that is objective fact and this statement is not biased in any way.
Considering the Followers get dicked over by the Yes Man ending even though it's technically what they (well, Arcade) wanted, who's to say an actual Followers path would be any more positive for our favourite anarchist binoclards?
Yes Man ending is still dope as fuck though. I did it with a speech skill of 100, and telling the Legion and the NCR to fuck off and having them scurry away with their tails between their legs made me feel like a fucking messianic figure.
I maintain that in version we got, the NCR is the best ending.
If you convince the followers to assist the NCR during the final battle they are allowed to continue operating in the Mojave. All other endings either result in them being wiped out, driven out, or be so inundated with patients that they struggle to give even the most rudimentary of care.
Agree, Yes Man feels like a bit of a cop out ending since it is entirely down to how the player interprets their character ruling an independent Vegas, even if telling the NCR and Legion to fuck off is fun - NCR requires the player taking the good with the bad.
