That's one way to play a game.

But sometimes people like role playing an actual character, not just grinding to get 'best' character. As an example there are plenty of suggested SPECIAL setups for Fallout3.

Yeah, exactly. I have more fun making the character that I choose the best it can be relative to its starting state, not every other character in the game.

The first Fallouts had low-Intelligence characters. It makes most responses "Uhh?", and everyone responds accordingly.

Except the other low intelligence characters, with whom you have some extensive and enlightened conversations.

One of my favorite twists on mechanics ever.

[JetSpiegel]

I didn't remember that. Time to replay Fallout...
