10 Bad Video Game Choices That Are Secretly The Best Option

3. The American Greeting - Fallout 4

Fallout 4 features a ton of unique random encounters, and one of them lets the Sole Survivor come across a Pre-War Mr. Gutsy (called Lt. Gutsy) who still protects Boston's outskirts from Chinese spies, two hundred years after the war has ended.

The robot will ask you to identify yourself to prove you are an American citizen, and if you choose the wrong response, he will call you a communist and immediately attack you.

There are several ways to resolve this situation without violence, and you'd think telling Lt. Gutsy to go f**k himself wouldn't be one of them.

In reality, it's one of the easiest and most reliable ways of convincing him you're not a spy!

When you decide to tell the robot off, he will recognize the American patriotism of greeting random strangers with swear words and let you pass the border without a problem.

To make things even funnier, any attempts at pleading and bargaining will cause Mr. Gutsy to attack you, so cussing at him is the most straightforward way to avoid conflict without a skill check.

Alternatively, you can also cause him to explode by repeating the same question over and over, which is also awfully hilarious in its own right.
