Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition

Now let me tell you, this game is frickin' awesome. Your actions have consequences in this world, What you do will resonate through your play-through. Almost every quest will have an interesting story attached to it. There are a few fetch quests, but these generally serve as an introduction to "build trust" with the quest giver. Once you complete the initial fetch-quest, you'll be tasked with the ACTUAL quest. In this game you are free to play as you want. You can ignore most of the quests and kill pretty much anyone, and the game will adapt. Player freedom is much better developed than in most other games, plus the story is actually interesting. This game is best enjoyed when taking it slow, savor the quests and explore the dialog options. There are some problems though: The technical state of the game is not good, you WILL need to use mods, in fact it will likely take you at least a whole day to get the game set up to a state where you enjoy playing it. It's totally worth the effort, but be aware that you need to invest some time into setting up the game, this is no plug and play experience. The gunplay is slightly better than FO3, but still not good, the erratic animations of Bethesda's engine still make it hard to hit anything outside of VATS. Graphics are rather ugly too (same as FO3, except it's now orange-brown instead of greenish-grey), though you can improve it rather a lot with ENBs (check out Jay's ENB). Still, in spite of these flaws, the RPG experience in this game in terms of player choice and immersion is amazing and FO:NV is highly replayable, since you got multiple factions with detailed backstories and diverging quests. Overall the game is highly recommended, but be aware that you'll need to put in some time and effort to get it to work properly.

Like in the topic. Obsidian made the best fallout with archaic engine which isn't their and with very small amount of time. Fallout 4 had a chance to raise the pole but it didn't happen. New Vegas has it all, cool missions and characters but most important thing is the story and choices which player can choose.

playing 200 h on this game i found the narration really cool, original. The quest are really cool but but its weak point is the present bunch of bug because obsidian could not correct the game in time because of the contract with bethesda for a metacritic of 84 instead of 85 ppff. And now besthesda does not even know how to make a good fallout by themselves, if he had accepted obsidian for their narrative talents the last 2 games of bethesda would have taken another turn. and why i put 5/5 star because the game. Well because it's only a true fallout

This is the best modern fallout. Forget the Fallout 76 Nonsense and the disappointment that was Fallout 4. This is post-apocalyptic storytelling at its best. Obsidian knows whats it doing. Unlike Bethesda.

Implemented iron sights into a fallout game before Bethesda did
