[QUOTE="Admin, post: 63076, member: 1"] Amid the hit [URL='https://www.ign.com/tv/fallout-the-series']Fallout TV show[/URL], all Fallout video games are enjoying a boost in players.

[I][B]Spoiler[/B] warning for Fallout New Vegas follows.[/I] Across social media, some New Vegas fans are advising new players that they should visit Quarry Junction, promising good starting gear at the location. Quarry Junction is along the short route to the Strip, New Vegas’ standout location, so on the face of it it makes sense to stop by. Perhaps don’t, though. Quarry Junction is an abandoned limestone quarry overrun by deathclaws, Fallout’s most terrifying monsters. There are young deathclaws, a deathclaw alpha male, and even a (very angry) deathclaw mother with her babies. At low levels (even at higher levels!), Quarry Junction is a deathtrap, so much so that over the years it has become something of a meme within the Fallout community. Perhaps wait until you’ve got a mini nuke or two and a Fat Man to hand before giving Quarry Junction a once over. For years, those in the know who wanted to hit The Strip early would crouch their way past deadly places like Quarry Junction.
