Left: Chris Haversam, engineer for the Bright Brotherhood and, according to him, a ghoul. —"I was human once, you know. Grew up in Vault 34, northeast of here. Nice upbringing, if you like assault rifles and target practice. But oh, you prefer machines that don't shoot people? Not so nice then."

Right: Meyers, former prisoner at NCR Correctional Facility and potential new sheriff of Primm. —"Howdy do, folks. I'm Sheriff Meyers. Be good, or I'll shoot you dead."

OK, so, I have developed a probably odd viewpoint on the best overall outcome for Primm in New Vegas.

So, what do I apparently think is the best outcome for Primm now? 

An Independent Ending where you’ve sided ‘em with the NCR.

Now, firstly let’s just show what it says in such an ending “Despite NCR's pledge to support Primm, they abandon the town after their loss to the Courier. Independent again, Primm operates much as it had before the Powder Gangs arrived, full of ups and downs.”

So, why am I saying that that is the best ending? Well, it’s simple: self-determination. Who becomes Sherriff of Primm post-NCR? I don’t know, I didn’t choose them. The people of Primm did.

Now, a lot of you may say “But Primm Slim is the best option.” and I agreed for a long time. In a choice between Meyers, the NCR and Primm Slim, Slim wins by a landslide, no question, but there was a shockingly salient criticism of him from Beagle of all people “... the law to him is a set of logic. Not everything is black and white, not sure a robot can ever understand that.” and this is, like, we all know Slim isn’t the most... sentient of robots in Fallout. Sure, Beagle is saying this mostly from annoyance of losing his job, but he’s right on the other two, for Meyers he says “He's a good sheriff but a hard man. He doesn't abide by anyone slinking by the rules. I guess there won't be any trouble, but the man's law is hard.” and for McGee he says “He's rude. Just don't tell him I said it. Primm has a sheriff now, just not as supportive as I would've hoped.” and, yeah, Sergeant McGee isn’t a nice man.

Of course, Slim’s endings are good “Primm Slim proves to be an able-minded, if not able-bodied, sheriff for Primm. Due to his slow speed, some crooks get away without a scratch, but Primm continues to prosper under his watchful robotic eye.“ or in a Legion ending “Not understanding the gravity of the Legion's imminent takeover of Primm, Sheriff Primm Slim valiantly attempts to resist Caesar's will.” no word on what happens to Slim in the latter, but from what we hear Primm Slim is a good enough sheriff.

But, times change and an eternity under the law of a Protectron running a pre-war law enforcement routine is... a questionable idea, y’know? A Protectron who doesn’t even know the name of Primm.

I don’t know how the residents of Primm choose their Sheriff in the ending I’m advocating and their the Sheriff is basically their head of state. I don’t know how McBain got the job, either. What I do know, is that them making that choice seems right to me. Return Primm to a pre-Powder Ganger government system. Undo the damage of the NCR on the town.

Sure, for the weeks or months between My Kind of Town and the Second Battle of Hoover Dam the town suffers under McGee and the NCR’s system, but after that, they reclaim their self-determination and while that means ‘ups and downs’, that freedom to actually choose as people, that matches my values the best of all the options.

One day I’m gonna look at all Primms endings, there’s some real interesting ones, but that’s for another time. I’ve expressed my probably odd idea on ‘the best option for Primm’, hopefully well enough for the perspective to be understood.

Yellow bug: 1968 Meyers Manx Dune Buggy

Once these cars were a bit mistreated, considered more like motorized toys than real cars, and for this reason most have been lost. Indeed these are not cars in which you can travel 1000 miles to take your family and their luggage on a beach holiday, yet these are cars that have the power to make you feel as if you are on the beach, even if you are in the middle of the mountains: the point is to…

Left: Meyers, former prisoner at NCR Correctional Facility and potential new sheriff of Primm. —"I was a sheriff [before I was incarcerated], believe it or not, for a small town far to the west of here. The short version is that sometimes justice is a little slow, and I helped speed it up one too many times. I'm not sorry for anything I did, but I will do the time. Fair enough trade, if you ask me."

Right: Cpl. William Farber, mess officer for the NCR at Camp McCarran. —"Well, we haven't had any quality meat in months. Everyone in the camp just eating beans for protein… It isn't pretty.

These cars, universally known as “Buggies” had their golden age in the sixties and seventies and then fell into oblivion for about thirty years. The idea of ​​building an open body in synthetic material to be connected to the Volkswagen Beetle chassis was by Bruce Meyers, an idea that has been successful as some sources – not certified – report about 6000 kits sold, not counting the accessories…
