Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition

I played this game last year withou any issues. I tried to play it again now being hyped from de prime series and now crashes when you try to start a game. I don't think they will even fixing it, so better to downloaded into another platform.

Too many problems to fix first to make it run flawlessly, only to be hit by the next onslaught of issues when modding. First it stutters, then it freezes, all of a sudden the menu won't load, forcing you to restart your entire pc by force. Not a fun experience. The game itself may be amazing, but considering the graphics really haven't aged well, I found myself turning to modding, only to be met with a lot more problems than my years and years of skyrim modding experience ever put me through.

title says it all. game does not work for mac. would give it zero stars if I could.

If you are a big fan of the Fallout series you must try New Vegas too. I think this is the worst game of the series, but still worth a shot. It has a lot of improvements compared to Fallout 3, like textures, highly moddable weapons, an improved companion menu, etc. The story is very flat, predictable, and sometimes boring, but Bethesda spiced it up with a good sense of humor. It took me 21 hours (including the time I spent on the menu) to finish.

So after playing the game for 16h 31m (if GOG is to be believed), I can only say that this game: - has the same, awful journal system Fallout 3 had; - has the useless, sometimes less than self-explanatory Karma system, just like the third game (no numerical score for your deeds and vague, generic categorizations, like "Paragon" or "Saint"); - has a courier that gets ambushed as its protagonist, who needs to investigate the ambush, get one of the items back...seriously? This is even weaker plot-wise than Fallout 3, where at least you cared, because you needed to get your dad back. I mean, why do I need to investigate something if, for all I know, this could be down to simple bad luck? Might as well "sit this one out". - places a Vault jumpsuit in your inventory, with a PipBoy given to you later. However, it is never explained what those things have to do with you, and this (and its implications) does not make sense on many levels whatsoever; - has that (optional) mission with the Deathclaws, which are just incredibly overpowered and you can do nothing about them even at lvl 8 or 10, unless you want to get a shit ton of mines and set up a trap. Even then, one of them can kill you in just one hit. No thanks, not gonna waste other 10 or 16 hours to get it done. - has some quests can get easily broken (either by you or the bugs themselves) and the game soon starts making no sense partly because of those. I guess the standard answer a Fallout fan will give me is: "install a few mods", but no. Wrong answer. I don't see why I should mess with a game if it does not stand on its own merits; I am reviewing the game sold here. The devs had one job... - the hardcore mode is...promising and looks incredibly good, even if it only brings a few modifications; that's the level of realism I would have included in a hypothetical game made by me by default, and that's how just a few details might ruin or elevate a game. Sure, those 16 hrs were OK, but just OK. Don't waste your money.
