Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition

I tried this game several times and gave it around 15 hours before i gave up. I really can't see why it is so hyped. Maybe it just didn't stand the test of time and i should have played it 11 years ago. I am sure i would have enjoyed it a bit more. But as it is i find Fallout 4 to be a better game on practically all accounts and i was just bored with this one. The graphics are horrible to look at. Everything is either grey or brown. You can't even distinguish loot from the ground it lies on... it is all just a brown/grey mess. The pace of the game is incredibly slow. You basically can't run, so it is walking to every new location (they call it running, but it really isn't). Crafting and levelling up is also very slow progressing and tedious (after 15 hours i didn't craft a single thing as my level was either too low or i didn't have the materials). You can't store items as easily or convenient either and picking stuff up makes you overburdened in minutes. Then there is the story. Admittedly i didn't get far into the main story, but the characters are very bland and one dimensional and the quests pretty straight forward, nothing special about what i experienced.

I'll keep it short. Pros: - it's kind-of a Fallout game, sure - DLCs are fun, at least some of them - overall cowboy feel, music, vibes - it can be likeable - bazillion weapon mods, ammo types - one can play with the system for a while, though there's not really that much combat to test out different setups so you'll end up traversing same locations over and over to just have some seconds of combat - exploration part of the game is fun sometimes - some of DLCs story is just cool Cons: - stupid game design - forcing players to take a detour to New Vegas if one does not cheeses a way by using stealthboys & stimpacks - deathclaws are sprinting tanks - there is no challenge in fighting deathclaws, as either you have a full arsenal to take those enemies in 3 seconds each or it's game over - companions are overpowered, cannot die - as I'm not 15 years old anymore for some time now, I do not have the time to play hardcore or however it's called. Basically companions do the fighting for you, unless you fight with deathclaws, then they are knocked unconscious in 3 seconds and you have like 3 seconds to either destroy deathclaws or it's game over - the game is very easy - there's no good scaling mechanism for the game. Either you fly through the game like a breeze, shooting shit-stained savages within 2 seconds of encountering them or need to carefully battle enemies with bazillions of HP - like deathclaws of ghouls in the nuclear test site - stupid skill check system - if you have 74 speech and the skill check requires 75 you will fail 100% of the times unless you use mentats - I mean, why is it so binary? 100% success or 0% most of the times. - speech-no-jutsu is overpowered - this skill is to be maximized to ~90 asap to even be able to enjoy the game, otherwise expect lots of fighting and dull content - more All in all - I only enjoyed this game after modding it heavily, otherwise it's very, very empty and feels like a board game with lots of wait time in between events

It could not have been discounted to a price that is 6,66.

good and bad game the good the story is immersive crafting is expansive npcs are interesting the bad after playing for many days having three hundred twenty eight save games it crashed reloading different save games continued to crash brings up a loading screen but does nothing to exit i had to shut down the computer and turn it on again recommendations dont buy it obsidian created this one and i will not be buying any thing from them again

After so many years game is still unplayable. Just google for amount of bugs at this game. F3, F3NV. You might get any of them and will spend hours to fix it without 100% chance to fix.
