FOnline, the game equivalent of a sidedish?

He missed out on the real endgame experience, hunting children around klamath.

Right now? Yes, but I'm not telling that FOnline will be like that whole time.
Ok, what else you can suggest? Sometimes I help 1-3 lvls by escorting them to some place as bodyguard (roleplaying), giving them brahmin hides or caps. Also I created a character with name bIubber and spending some time at NCR pushing people at alive Sha Enin and simulating steal skill by draging item from off-hand slot to inventory and opposite many times in a row, sometimes they shoot me and guards killing them, I feel really sad.
Before wipe I had 3 CH, I was completing repeatable quest at New Reno almost every day just to run there in jacket and deagle, btw never meet someone there for whole prewipe session except for few bluesuiters with 25-30 HP.
Now I have 1 CH, all I do is killing poor NPCs with SMGs, killing Sha Enin, spending time at Hinkley(not anymore, because it doesn't work), when I had > -1.5k rep with NCR I was standing at NCR and doing nothing, because blind guards never say anything about thieves, so even boring roleplaying of guard is impossible.
What else I can do? Go around NCR and shoot scorpions? Or hunt some geckos? Or run around town shouting something whole day? Or create unarmed alt again and just chase people roleplaying zombie? There must be player interaction that based on game progress, not just "don't know what to do", right now all player interaction on progress is killing poor critters in party, but I think alone is much faster, exclude when 1 aggring all critters on him, and his friend safely killing them, but it's good only for his friend.

Dont limit yourself to only one task. If your gathering cooldown is up, go and hunt something. Craft something, repair something, go with your friends to a town, do some bartering, do some killing etc.
As this is a sandbox game you can blame yourself when the game feels like a sidedish for you. It's only a lack of creativity and imagination.

I think you've taken this discussion in the wrong light. I wasn't trying to point out flaws in the system or some other pointless thing like that. I was just hoping for a conversation about a topic that I know for a fact that alot of people do, that is multitasking while playing FOnline. I mean take this very instance for an example, I'm typing this while crafting some 5mm ammo on FOnline surely this can't be attributed to a lack of imagination.
Besides, no one that I know plays FOnline (yet 8) ). So I have the issue where anyone I meet in game could potentially PK me and take away my hard earned stuff. Last time I tried to make a friend in game he took me halfway to NCR in a car then got out and shot me, muttering something like 'if it wasn't for this random encounter I would of taken you to NCR...'. So far I have only met two people in this game who haven't tried to kill me and that's just because we were in NCR and the guards were all around.
I'm sorry if my first post appeared aggresive in nature or even this one for that matter, that was not what I intended. I just don't think it's fair to attribute the fact that I like doing something else like watching a movie while playing FOnline to a lack of imagination!

Don't worry .WarChanges, it wasn't really directed to you, more to the "there is nothing to do in this game" people. ;)

Well thanks for that clarification. I didn't want to get on the wrong start with anyone, I'm here to chat - not start fights. ;)
On another note - I just found Sha Enin lying on the ground as an ash pile. Is there anyone in this forum that would like to own up about BBQing the merchant I was just about to use? >:(
