@"dragbody" in a heartbeat bro even more so if i could be a glowing one so id more or less be a walking nuke find some power armor mod it to use the energy that i put out to power it haha iv had a lot ov time to think this over but to become a something akin to Blight from Batman beyond would be pretty powerful if you mastered the rads your putting off.

There are several ways to become "immortal" in the Fallout universe (Mr House and the Big MT scientists come to mind) and ghoulification seems to be like drawing the short straw on that score.

But other than that, sure why not? You get ugly? Boo hoo. You get ugly when you're dead as well, so if I'm gonna look like a corpse I'd prefer to at least keep my consciousness and brain active. There's just too much to do and see in this world and eighty-odd years just ain't enough

And as we saw with Beatrix, it's not like ghouls aren't getting any action

Sign me up for the "Undying Son of a Bitch" brigade.

Aw no, please. I can't imagine myself crawling over the centuries. Live once and get out :p
I dislike ghouls in many ways, even being very friendly to them. I respect their lives, but no, eeew, i do not want to be a walking corpse.

If becoming a ghoul meant also that the nuclear apocalypse had happened then yes but if it meant that i would be a ghoul among a bunch of smoothskins in real life then no i would not, although maybe i would if it meant i could call everyone a smoothskin.

I definitely don't wanna be a ghoul in the East Coast...

Living long in exchange for dealing with discrimination and the harsh wasteland is a bit too much. Plus the chance of me turning feral. If i were someone famous that became a ghoul it might not be bad. I'd have Pre-War stories to tell and be able to take comfort in memories of the Pre War life...

Living indefinitely seems boring anyway.

Yeah like you know how much food i can eat if i live forever

if my life sucked really bad then yea probably i might

I actually don't want to live forever, so the ghoul option is definitely not for me. And I don't want to risk becoming feral. Limited lifetime is what makes us humans human imo and that's how it should be lol.

I do like the thought of living near forever, I want to see the future and what is to come. If a ghoul was the only option available i may take it. However if i do ill always be wearing a full head helmet, gloves so people wont exactly know, hopefully

Hecks not I wouldn't want to become a ghoul. Too much ghoul bigots and just because you age very slow doesn't mean you can't get shot or anything like that and live. And also you'll be looked down upon your whole life. Not worth it.

What's so bad about becoming a ghoul? Screw the smoothskins. Soon enough, they'll be dead or ghouls themselves. That'll show em.

I mean sure. There has to be a cure sooner or later right? Be cool if it was like a "Fallout - Project Resurrection" thing ... if any of you guys played it and know what I mean.

So I would say yes, to be honest, as I think the idea of living forever would be sweet and my name is zombieredneck. But heres the issue, I have noticed that some ghouls aint exactly....stable. So when I am asked if I could live forever would I become a ghoul, i have to take into account I may not be like my main boy Hancock but more like Gully the shaking ghoul. So it would be one hell of a gamble. I think I would have to be on the bence for this one guys. Between losing all my sanity and living forever versus the just living forever thing like I dont know what the odds of that are.

If the apocalypse happened, hell yes. I could literally watch the whole world change from wasteland to back to society, If that were to happen.

Immortality in all forms is highly overrated. Live on forever while everyone I've ever known and loved die around me? Yeah, no thanks. Combine that with the chance of going feral and losing all I've ever been, then the answer becomes a resounding no.

100% sign me up I would love to live for years and so what if your half zombie yolo you only live once haha

Living longer than your normal span of time before dying is great, but that feeling of living forever might get to you after a while. I would not like to live forever, for an extended period of time yes, but not forever. I also would not like the fact that I look hideous with corroded skin.

Hmm tough question. On one hand you live forever and radiation has no negative effect on you but on the other hand you look like a corpse, you're rejected most everywhere, and if you don't stay social you can go feral. Like that Queen song, "Who wants to live forever?".

No way. Another question that just popped up in my head: Can Ghouls even starve?

Honestly, I wouldn't want to.

To have to live that long trapped in a decaying body, slowing losing yourself to madness...

Yeah...I'll have to pass on that one.
