Seriously, I Don’t Want to be the Chosen One
Seriously, I Don’t Want to be the Chosen One
We’re serious, Andrew really is sick of being the chosen one.
Being bad is so much more deliciously fun.
By Andrew Duncan
I
wrote a humorous article
about how I don’t want to be
the Chosen One and blessed
with driving the narrative of
saving
the
planet/country/
princess. But I’m serious - I
don’t want to be the chosen one
anymore. I don’t even want to be
the good guy anymore.

The Fallout games are well
known for giving you an open
world and a lot of freedom. I
came into the series with 3, like
a lot of people, as it looked like
a game I could enjoy. Of course,
I played the good guy route you always play as the good
guy, right? Well, enough of that.
I slowly realised as I played, that
you could do some nasty things.
You stole a lot of things - it’s
not like you had a job, how else
could you get money? You were
freshly out of the only place
you’d known for your entire life.
So I stole, I sold my ill-gotten
gains - sometimes to the people
from whom it was stolen.
