I really feel like she would have some interesting opinions and advice on how to handle the chaotic world of Fallout. There are a few mods out that make her a companion but it would be so cool if she had a full story like Willow did in her mod.

There is a Sunny Smiles companion available on the nexus here:

Obviously not as detailed as you described but still interesting

Ulysses, he was planned but he was cut out.

Hmm tough decision, though I think I'd go with joshua graham Smile

Sunny Smiles. I know there's a mod that makes her a companion, but it would of been cool if she was a early companion with a fleshed out backstory/side quest. Another companion I would of liked to have is Gob. This poor ghoul that's being treated like a slave by Moriarty needs to get free and travel the wastes with the lone wanderer.

Groovy Followers for FO3 works like Jip or RC Companions in FNV. I was going to blow up Megaton in one of my recent games and made as many companions as I could from the tavern plus I had Jericho and I moved them all away, then I blew up Megaton. After that I just traveled with them and used the coc command and put them all back in Megaton ruins. Billy Creel is my ultimate follower in FO3. Him and Paladin Bael- he guards the Citadel and Dr Lee yells at him when they come out of the tunnel. Wink

I also LOVE 3 Dog as a companion! I dress him up in Eulogy Brown's suit!

Christine, definitely. She's a sweet and interesting character.
Even though Ulysses is my favorite Fallout character, I prefer him to be more a "mentor" than a companion.

NV was seriously lacking in mutant followers, particularly the mutant kind. I would have loved to be doing quests and patrolling the Mojave with Marcus or maybe even a nightkin! In Fo3 Fawkes was my favorite companion and its sad to say there isnt a placeholder for him/her? in New Vegas.

There seems to be a lot of love for Sunny Smiles but I don't know, I found her pretty annoying. But then that might just be the voice acting. Joshua Graham would've made a great comapnion in the wasteland though

Harkness fromfallout 3. (spoiler alert close your eyes) It would have been awesome to have him come on your adventures after he finds out he's an android

that ghoul cowgirl in nv... or fisto!

What are you talking about? there is a mutant placeholder for Fawkes in FNV her name is Lily, if that doesn't satisfy your mutant needs there's a follower mod for Marcus and this guy (pretty fun companion and has so much to say through out your journeys)

[I cant quote you @Diegonom because of your links]

~~Yeah but Lily wasn't permanent, like how Rex and Boone and Veronica is,~~ but you're right, what makes this game so great is how you can mod it any way you like to make it functionally your perfect game.

scratch what I wrote about Lily I must be blind, after I finished the Guess Who I Saw today quest I sorta just left Jacobstown, huh I guess its time to go exploring again with a new friend Very Happy

You hit the nail on the head! Both Fallout games have this charm, to mod them so they are your perfect game! Wink

one of the things that i love about the fallout games, and skyrim also. you basically tailor your own experience to suit your play style. lol, lately ive been getting carried away with putting too many mods in and having compatability issues though, so i gotta scale back my ambitions when trying to make the perfect build.

I hear you! I love companion mods but some can mess up your game too. Which is why I use the NPC's from the game, not a great idea either if they are involved in quests but I've had a lot of success with them. I use Mod Organizer and it's very, very easy to put in too many mods. I think FOMM limits you? So you really need to watch your step with adding on the mods.

I have been playing the sims since 2001 and if you can run a heavily modded sims game, you can run mods in any game! Talk about conflicts! Rampant corruption! The Fallout games are the same for corruption, it happens so easily. The most important thing to remember is if you add a big mod, sit back and run it before adding another one. I know it's so easy to forget that but if you pile on too many mods at once you can't troubleshoot.

Mod Organizer is wonderful for that! I'm running 5 profiles on it now, testing mods. I just added the Riddick mod yesterday to a new profile to make sure it played nice with my other mods and he did beautifully! If you're not using Mod Organizer, you might want to consider it if you experiment with a lot of mods.
