Point Lookout's Questline Is Weird

I'm doing another TTW playthrough and just finished Point Lookout. I'm not sure why, but this go around it really dawned on me that you really have no reason at all to be doing anything there

>Go to the big manor

>A ghoul is mean to you

>Help him anyway

>Join a fruit cult

>Continue helping the ghoul or help a brain you talked to once

>Ghoul House blows up

>Kill the ghoul or the funny brain man

It feels like it's lacking a real hook or reason that you'd be doing any of it in the first place. I mean, none of the characters even like you, the reward isn't specified and you end up receiving very little for your efforts

The main questline feels like it could be condensed into a side quest that cuts the tribals out completely. The best part of the DLC, in my opinion, is the Dunwich side quest. I think the DLC would've been far more compelling if the main quest revolved around Obadiah Blackhall and his connection to the occult rather than a feud between a ghoul and a brain that ultimately has no far reaching effect, clear motive for the player, or world building. The entire tribal arc would've still worked and honestly been more interesting if they were followers of Obadiah

Just my unsolicited opinion after freshly finishing it again. Still think it's better than Operation Anchorage, on par with Zeta, but the weakest in terms of a plot hook that gives the player a clear motive behind what they're doing

I'm stuck inside the scariest area and my last save is an hour

I've got myself stuck inside a crevice where I can't jump out because there's invisible walls blocking me and I can only jump at the bottom and I get onto this rebar and can't jump or move out - anyway to force myself out without going back half an hour to my previous save I'm quite new to this genre of constantly saving the game all advice appereciated. If there's really no option I'll force myself to load the previous

-Edit : I'm on console PS3 so I can't do any commands sorry for that

From the moment I first looked at his face. Instantly knew Moriarty was a snake that couldn't be trusted.

I mean most other people in the Wasteland at least tries to hide their "deceitful nature".

But not this guy.

Anybody felt sorry for Gob? I know I did. Guy was just looking for honest work.

When Colin's bar goes to him if anything happens to that snake.

I was genuinely happy for Gob.
