  The 2000 caps to get into New Vegas thing is a common misconception. You’re not paying 2000 caps to get in. You’re just showing that you have 2000 caps.

  speaking of Zelda, we can&apos;t forget that in the original Legend of Zelda, you can&apos;t beat Ganon without hitting him with a silver arrow... and each arrow drains one rupee. the original pay-to-win game!

  &quot;...though you definitely have to eat a donut that was made by spiders...&quot;<br><br>As the nearby sign says, &quot;Come eat food made by spiders, for spiders, of spiders!&quot;<br><br>The Spider Donut&apos;s check: &quot;A donut made with Spider Cider in the batter.&quot;<br>Spider Cider&apos;s check: &quot;Made with whole spiders, not just the juice.&quot;

  A correction for the credit check in New Vegas. You don&apos;t need to pay the 2000 caps for the legit pass, just need to have them in your inventory. So if you have the money, it&apos;s cheaper to take the credit check.

  The easiest way to beat Oregon Trail is by picking the banker profession so you start with extra money and buy pretty much all the supplies you’ll need starting out.

  Fun fact about the Spider Donut:<br>The item description for the Spider Donut says it&apos;s &quot;made with Spider Cider in the batter.&quot;<br>Spider Cider is another item the Spiders sell. Spider Cider also has an item description: &quot;Made with whole spiders, not just the juice.&quot;<br><br>You&apos;re literally eating/drinking liquified spiders.
