Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition

.

If you are willing to spend about 5 hours to follow a reputable modding guide like Viva New Vegas just to get the game working to its full potential, then you will witness a world torn to shreds, every community ravaging the land for what they can. Otherwise I'd regard the game more akin to torture device, bringing your hopes up with the writing yet shattering it with every bug & crash You read the previous paragraph about installing Quality of Life mods being a requirement, right? At least an auto-save manager. The DLCs are somewhat all over the place in practice, for example my favourite Dead Money turns the game into bleak horror with memorable characters & writing... however, there is an anxiety-inducing mechanic where to proceed through some areas, you have to find a "speaker" within an area and shoot it before the high-pitched beeping timer runs out (they don't even bother to show you an example of how it looks like) I'm autistic (sensitive to stimuli) and have poor perception, so finding these speakers were so painful & difficult they took me out of the story and into pain - just suffering. Because of this, on my first playthrough, every word the characters said went into my right ear and went out the left. On the second playthrough, I discovered I could tgm (godmode) to let the explosion happen, permanently disabling the mechanic (I turned it off again ofc). Suddenly, there was calm. I no longer felt like I was going to die in real life. Elitists may call this a "skill issue", but I was able to appreciate the story much better this time around. (There is an in-game difficulty option, but it only affects combat.) Combat is improved from Fallout 3 overall, but still jank. At heart, it's really just how you interact with the world, rather than the highlight. It doesn't help that Laura Bailey sounds like a pushable teenage girl in this game, which is going to be really weird when you're Level 50. P/S: If you dislike brown tint, check out Clarity mod.

If you are one of the unlucky few who never played this game.. you now have no excuse. Youc should pick this up at once. It is a fantastic game, and with its excellent mods for it, you can update it to look fantasic. Head on over to nexus mods to see what you can do. That said, it is fantastic that Bethesda releases more here.

This game is like that mid looking chick you had the best time with. Nothing's the same after this game.

Fallout 3 and NV currently crash after opening video finishes(or if you skip it). This is a known issue with the April and May Adrenalin driver updates. We'll have to wait until AMD fixes it unless you want to download unofficial dll fixes. Patience...
