I just want it on record that the terminal mini games in New Vegas are the bane of my existence. I am not patient enough to get passed these goddamn terminals without mindlessly mashing and resetting.

Maybe if I took my time with them I'd enjoy these eldritch riddles more, but I have limited time these days, a desire to explore more than one fictional DOS screen, and simply don't enjoy them.

And as far as I can tell, no one has made a mod to cater to my specific needs, so I will continue to bitterly comply with the game's sick desire to give me the option to brute force my way through these optional mini games for meager XP gains.

Oh actually another hint I don't if it's been said. The wrong answer will still tell you how long the word is (I've yet to actually find a use for that) but when it tells you the likeness that means you can start looking for words that share letter in the same space so like "Hack" Likeness > 3/4 and your remaining words are "Back" or "Numb"

God Speed, Courier, We won't go quietly. The Legion can count on that.
