Has anyone here ever actually recruited Dogmeat early and kept him alive in FO1? (I haven't)

You can talk your way out of literally every non-random combat scenario in the first game, so it's actually not really a problem. Barely an inconvenience. By the time I get to the rooms of super mutants, which are basically just where The Master is, I'm suave enough to just talk my through everyone, including The Master himself lol
Plus, with Power Armor I can just get aggro from everyone so nobody attacks anyone but me, using a rocket launcher or something to blow up half the enemies in the room as my first action. And then of course, save scumming when the damn dog just runs into a wall of bullets.
My favorite thing about FO1 is the fact you can beat it without fighting, so that's generally how I play. Though sometimes I like playing a dumbass, too.
Can you elaborate? Are all combat playthroughs the dumbass way?
No, playing a character with 3 or less INT. Your dialogue completely changes to just grunts lol
Oh yes. That's totally different. I once did a 1 INT run. My character was too dumb to gamble, even with mentats.
I played with 1 INT 10 Luck once. Found the Alien Blaster right outside the vault. It carried me the whole game.
