Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition

... you want to follow a modding guide called 'Viva New Vegas'. A true-to-vanilla guide that focuses on stability. You won't regret it :)

Be like most people and play it through as a good guy: Help people, do good things, be good and moral and just. It's a tremendous amount of fun and completely satisfying as an Angel of the Mojave. Or, take a walk on the dark side of life and be a completely evil rascal. Do horrible, awful things to innocent people who don't deserve it, Just to be a narcissistic, self-serving asshole. This is also a tremendous amount of fun although personally I've found that Destroyer of the Mojave isn't quite as satisfying. But that's just me. You are free to do you. Fallout New Vegas has got you covered either way, or any point in between. There are seemingly infinite paths through this game, and all are deep and rich, and exciting and satisfying. You'll play it through several times and be amazed at how many different ways there are of doing things. In short, this game is legendary for a lot of solid reasons that will not disappoint. If you're on the fence about this one just get off the fence and jump in.

It's really insane we need to go to games made in 2010 or older to get great writing, deeply interesting characters, great factions, great dialogue, amazing world building, and impactful choices in RPGs. Modern video games are pathetic.

While Fallout 3 brought new life to the Fallout world, and was fantastic in its own right, Fallout New Vegas holds a place apart. It took the events of 1 and 2 and concluded that arc in a very satisfying way. It also has some of the best DLC content of any Fallout game, most particularly Old World Blues. Alternating between dark nostalgic scifi futurism, a grim apocalypse and layers of black humor, the Obsidian team took great care crafting this gem.

First off, thank you GOG for putting this amazing game on the best DRM-free platform. I've been waiting for this. I'm not very good at writing reviews but here you go: This game is absoloutly amazing, everyone should play it. You don't want to miss out on this massive role-playing experience with a heavy focus on player freedom. With many and diverse quest, great characters and interesting storyline. Plus all the different factions you can help or fight. Oh yea, it's freaking VEGAS! With Casinos, gambling and corruption (just to name a few). Lots and lots of different weapons and armour/clothing to suit your playstyle. A must play for any role-playing or just open world fan out there. And what's more, it's drm-free (which these single-play only games shoud be)
