8 Video Game Skills You Wished You Never Bought

8. Cult Of Personality - Fallout 2

In the original Fallout games, shaping your character build carefully is pretty much an essential skill in of itself, as with just a few wrong perk placements and bad points allocation you could find yourself locked out of late-game rewards, special quests, and of course simply just be shot to ribbons by weapons of which you have little to no resistance against.

Therefore when you pick a duff perk after all that grinding it stings worst than a Radscorpion to the eyeball, and the Cult Of Personality perk sure is a lethal dose of poison to those looking to survive the irradiated wastes.

Now on paper this perk actually seems really useful, as it's meant to allow the player access to conversations with NPCs who might otherwise hate the player character, thus allowing you to extract information, rewards, and entire questlines that your actions may otherwise see you locked out of. As it stands this is incredible as it allows you to play as a psychotic murderer whilst also giving you the option to work with law bringers for sweet coin and ever sweeter loot!

Yet there's just one problem, and it's a rather massive one....it doesn't work.

The perk is bugged meaning that you will be trying in vain to get people to speak to you all the while potentially angering them further. Cult of Personality? This turns you into a bloody Pariah!
