The days continued on from then and on October 7th 2250, the 63rd day since I was reincarnated into this world, I completed my 63rd daily workout quest, finally earning enough exp for a level up.
*Haa..haa..haa...*
Finally, I'm able to level up. I just need to turn in this last quest and I'll be able to level up immediately afterward.
Settling my breathing, I opened up my holographic system menu and navigated over to the quest section to turn in my just completed daily quest.
I wonder if there will be any other changes from the games... Though now that I'm thinking of it, I already got 4 perks that never existed in any of the 3 games right out of the gate. So the chances of new things being introduced are quite high. Hopefully, the changes include a variety of new useful perks and other cool shit that I can use to my advantage.
After that thought, I turned in my daily workout quest gaining another 16 exp as my reward, finally pushing my total exp over the required 1,000 exp for the next level.
Level Up!
Okay, here we go, time to level up for the first time and get me a perk.
Taking a brief look through my status, I noticed no changes.
Everything is unchanged. Time to use that long awaited level up.
With my status appearing the same as it has been minus the pending level up I now had at the top of the screen, I selected the level up on my status screen and as soon as I did the screen changed and presented me with a perk screen.
[ Perks ]
Perk Points Left: 1
Level 0 Perks
| Ambidextrous | Requirements Level 0, Perception 8: Gain the ability to use both of your hands as if they were your dominant hand.
| Bookworm | Requirements Level 0, Intelligence 4: Your reading speed will double and in addition to that, you'll better understand the knowledge you gain, leading to faster skill gain. +100% to reading speed and +25% to skill gain speed.
| Speed Loader | Requirements Level 0, Agility 6: Loading and reloading has never been better, gain the ability to load magazines at a substantially faster speed and see a decent increase to your reload speed. +50% to magazine loading speed and +35% to reloading speed.
| Talented | Requirements Level 0, Intelligence 9: Become talented and absorb experience like a sponge and learn from your experiences faster than ever before. +2 skill points gained per level up.
Hmm, that's different from the games. I would normally only have three new perks to choose from, but now there are four with the inclusion of Ambidextrous, so that's new. In addition to that, from what I've read from the perk descriptions, the perks also have some changes from their game counterparts, but the changes in their descriptions are all positive, so that's good. Hopefully that remains the case going forward. It would suck if I couldn't take a perk due to a shitty change by this system.
Quickly discovering those differences, I spent a few more seconds looking to see if I could spot anything else changed from the games and when I didn't; I continued on.
That seems to be all the changes for the moment, now what perk should I take for my first level... The first perk that really stands out to me would have to be Talented due to two reasons. Reason one being because I take it every time I play a Wastelander game and reason two, the real reason is the earlier I get the perk, the more benefits I'll see from it in the long run.
However, since this isn't a game any longer, let me check the other perks again, along with the new perk to see which of them I want to take for my first level. The new perk Ambidextrous isn't too bad of a choice since I could see it being exceptionally handy in many activities, situations like crafting and combat, to name two. It could also prove useful in situations involving the bedroom as well, but that's too far off into the future for me to bother thinking about, with me being a baby and all.
