Mages are very good to play.  It's not a bad idea to have a couple in
your party, and you don't have wait till halfway through the game to
do so if you are playing one, or you can discard one of the NPCs if
they don't fit with how you want to play once you do get that 2nd one.

Nope, haven't seen that one either.

I think I've got enough suggestions now, I just need to choose
something :)

I'll probably go with the FO3 DLCs for now (or rather buy another copy
since it'd be cheaper than buying the DLCs individually, and probably
not on steam since it's harder to mod steam games), but at least I've
got things to look forward to after I'm done with that.
