Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition

I love this game so much. i played this through on console and was very suprised to see how well this plays on pc. Unfortunately it still crashes but thats very rare, so not to bad. Can be kind of hard to get into but very much so worth it

My favorite fallout game, no doubt about it, one of the few games where I am hunting for achievements. This game has a decent character customisation. You can adjust your apperaince (although there is room for improvement). The leveling system is nice. You get to distribute points between SPECIAL attributes in the beginning. Then every level you get points to invest in skills. And every few levels you get to choose a perk. The atmosphere is outstanding. It blends SCIFI, POST-APOCALYPSE and WESTERN. I really love the desert asthectics and the Las Vegas vibe. The world is fairly large and there are a lot of things to discover beside the main quest (although some dungeons might seem repetative to some folks). There are several different factions in the Mojave, each one with unique and interesting motivations and values and it's up to the player to choose which ones to side with. The game has several different endings which depend on the choices you make in the course of the game. There is a karma and faction reputation systems in place. You can be good, evil, a bit of both. Each faction will react to your actions. Unlike Fallout 3, this game offers an insane number of different weapons. There are plenty of side quests that reward you with xp and you do not have to grind to level up for the most part. the game might seem a bit linear in the beginning but it really opens up once you reach Vegas. There are several different sidekicks to choose from, each one with unique traits and bonuses. The game is not too hard although there are some challenging enemies that require you to level up and get better weapons. The character progression is great in my opinion. Not to mention that this game has great mod support. However, this game has its issues too. There are quite a few bugs, stability issues and such. But a lot of these can be fixed with a few mods without altering the gameplay. BEST GAME EVER. DISCLAIMER: Sorry for English errors.

I never thought, that Fallout: New Vegas will ever appear on GOG DRM-free. This game is one of the best RPGs ever, with many possibilities of character and story progression. Great job GOG & Bethesda! Thanks!

The best Fallout made to date, I will never forget my first time playing this game, I liked Fallout 3, but after New Vegas, I learned just how good RPG's could become, this game gives you the true RPG experience, and not the linear, you-only-choose-what-to-say-"RPG's" If you haven't picked this up yet because Fallout 3 disappointing you, I hear you, this is nothing like Fallout 3, and actually respects the source material(Super Mutants aren't just angry orcs, for instance), I'm definitely buying it on GOG, not only to support this masterpiece, but also get access to the DLC's.

I love this game. I bought it twice and I have no regrets. I love almost everything about it. Let's start with the visuals. It looks similar, if not, near identical to Fallout 3 which isn't a bad thing. Fallout 3 looked pretty good for a 2008 game with some ocasional low res texture here and there. Sound design, is what you expect from a Fallout game at this point with the good ol' radio stations with plenty of songs from the 30's, 40's, 50's, among others, that still hold up even today. Weapon sounds are slightly changed to feel more like guns instead of slightly sounding like toys, from Fallout 3. Story, is nothing too great, but it's compelling enough to make you think about it. Who's in the right? Who's in the wrong? Did you make the right decision? While were at it, yes, you have important choices, not only with side-quests but also the main storyline that affects the ending outcome and it's all shown to you at the end for you to see it's fate. Gameplay, it's identical do Fallout 3 only this time you got actual iron sights aim (You can also change it back to F3 in the options if you so desire). You still have VATS for that Turn-based feel. You get more weapons to choose from and most of them feel great. Characters, are very memorable. They all have personalities, several of them even have great backstories. I really like the characters. Exploration, unfortunately, is the weakest part of the game. In Fallout 3, it was fun to explore and wander off to wherever you pleased, because you were sure to find some great loot and tough enemies to fight. There's none of that here. It was disapointing then, it was disapointing now. New Vegas, the place named after the game, also isn't anything to write home about. It's feels unfinished. With all that said, I really enjoyed this game and played dozens of times with different builds and branching choices.
