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

I don't get it. Why does he die in the last panel?

His head fell off.

That's not very typical, I'd like to make that point.

Funny.

But, also, Dogmeat can not be kept alive in Fallout 1 without glitching. Even if he survives combat throughout the game (which has permadeath) he's scripted to walk into a trap in the final encounter, and even if you glitch him to safety he still dies canonically.
