Story, characters, world building, setting, factions, quests, aesthetic, role playing potential. Not to mention many other small things that combine to make something substantial.
Apart from that, the shitty engine allows you do more bullshit since everything is interactable. Sometimes I play Oblivion for the sole reason to break in homes and steal stuff or use illusion and alteration to frick with NPCs.
Still a bit pissed that obsidian was given a rock and two pieces of string and a weekend to make new vegas.
A remake on a better engine with shit fixed or expanded upon would be perfect.
Mate it's obsidian, even if you gave them a trillion dollars and a decade they'd still release something that felt unfinished and buggy - biting off more than they can chew is their hallmark.
Yeah, it's like expecting PlatinumGames to make something that runs smoothly all the time or not have a gimmick segment
>be given one of the easiest and most intuitive engines to construct a game world and fill it with quests and npcs, with the 90% of the mechanics already implemented.
>rock and two pieces of string
Frick off you reddit Black personhomosexual piece of shit, go have a nice day, you absolute mongoloid.
absolutely bait post
the majority of the work was done by fallout 3
That's why the game is so good despite its limitations. You've seen what they can do with bigger budgets and much longer dev times.
It’s my least favourite Obsidian game, IMO.
FO3 is more fun to actually play even though NV has better writing.
>Obisidian
>Finishing a game
Pick one and only one. Obsidian is basically what happens when you get ideas guys to make your games— Tons of cool ideas, but the game turns out a complete mess because they didn’t spend any time polishing or refining said ideas.
>FO3 is more fun to actually play
I don't believe there is a person on earth who enjoyed god awful enemy sponges and gunplay of fallout 3.
I always found NV’s enemies spongier because of DT and armor. You need to craft different ammo types to make NV not spongey. At least in 3, crits and sneak crits are enough to negate any potential sponginess.
You can just buy all the ammo you need and every weapon class has some Big Gun that solves all the problems.
In f3 enemies are sponges and you can't do anything about it.
I have over 1k hours in NV and am a self-proclaimed god of the game, and I don't think I ever crafted a single AP bullet. Ironically enough, New Vegas dedicated A LOT more attention to critical strikes and crit builds are pretty much the best builds to take across all weapons besides explosives for obvious reasons. A well done New Vegas build will obliterate the toughest and meanest targets in the game in a matter of seconds, while in 3 literally no amount of fine-tuning and topshelf gear hunting will make albino scorpion / supermutant overlord / reaver ghoul fights fast.
>have to go through subways to get anywhere
>ads absolute shit in 3
please stop lying
Obsidian never made a good game
(you)
like outer worlds?
They were given an entire game to reskin. Obsidian can't into optimization otherwise Alpha Protocol would've been a functional game
>Still a bit pissed that obsidian was given a rock and two pieces of string and a weekend to make new vegas.
Nobody post the Twitter screencap where Josh Sawyer himself states that FO:NV's rocky release was more of a frick up on Obsidian's part
is it scripted that he gets killed by radscorps?
No, just very likely because of which path he runs off towards.
Its scripted that I shoot him in the back for screaming and cackling in my face.
I've replayed it a few times but every time I try and remember specifics about the game it all comes as a blur of bland, brown assgrease filter with awful voicework. Only Dead Money and Honest Hearts stick out in my brain, that and laser beaming a bunch of Freeside Thugs with the toy gun.
so uh... wanna play caravan?
I played it in real life and it's exhausting keeping track of all the things the computer automatically get does
Still, pretty fun if you and your opponent have the same deck
Probably because you're a troony.
What's the deal with the troonys and this game? Nobody ever seems to be able to answer it.
It's bullshit forced by f76 gays.
>f76 gays.
These exist? I thought 76 was universally panned.
Unfortunately a horrible place called /fog/ exists on vg.
You might even noticed raids of these morons to Ganker with "it's good now" threads when it's literally the same game with minimal changes.
Unironically this, most of the general is just comparing loot and cosmetics and other shit.
How can you compare cosmetics in a game where you only get to pick full body outfits and hats? There isn't anything to customize.
Its an open world action game by Bethesda, Bethesda fans and other morons will play it no matter what.
Narratives change all the time. Horse Armor and Oblivions mechanics and leveling are now “kino.” Fallout 3 is now “based.” Dark Souls 2 is now an “acclaimed achievement” but is also hated by people who “just don’t get it.” 3D Zelda games before BOTW are “outdated boomer nonsense.” Not liking Fortnite is “bluepilled.” I dont know why people take opinions here seriously, somebody born in 2005 is old enough to stink up this board.
I want to believe that most of these are just jokes and bait.
Truth is somewhere in the middle and I honestly think that fallout 3 has good moments and dark souls 2 is a good game.
While I believe you that some people with no taste like oblivion's level scaling, I absolutely refuse to believe anyone thinks the horse armor was anything but a complete failure and a herald of the dark times we now live in.
>I absolutely refuse to believe anyone thinks the horse armor was anything but a complete failure and a herald of the dark times we now live in
Bethesda won.
They sell paid mods and horse armor and nobody gives a frick.
Or not everyone has the same opinion
>not everyone is normal sane being
we know
FO3 was critically acclaimed at released. Of course you weren’t born then, so you don’t remember
people didn't know better at the time
then NV came out and everyone saw how an actual proper Fallout game looks like, not a fricking theme park aka Bethesda Fallouts.
New Vegas is the definition of a themepark
>No no you can't go there, see there are deathclaws in here
>Go to this town to meet the legion
>Now go to Novac and finish this quest
>Ok now go to this town to find Benny
>Oh no he's not there, now you can go to the strip for good
Putting invisible walls on the mountains just so you get railroaded on a specific path is the worst thing you can do on an OPEN world
I just blitzed past the cazadors by abusing ledge AI on my first playthrough. No fake walls are gonna stop me.
>No no you can't go there, see there are deathclaws in here
Oh whoops, I went there anyway. And survived. And now I'm in Freeside making bank in the Atomic Wrangler so I can afford an Intelligence implant at level 1 and get perfectly maximized levelup skillpoint output.
>Putting invisible walls on the mountains
Not even true, at least not in a way that restricts your traversal freedom. I'm a living incarnation of a mountain goat while making my way to Vegas at level 1, because I know enemies never learned where the jump button is.
I know, it sucks, pal. Your plan was flawless, you decided to pick a fight about a videogame on Ganker because you know Ganker doesn't play videogames and won't be able to call your shit, but you just HAD to have stumbled upon someone who did play it in this very thread. Shucks.
>I went there anyway. And survived
Try that without mods or exploits
>Not even true, at least not in a way that restricts your traversal freedom.
Pic related. They force you to take the scenic route. It's Obsidian's outdated way of introducing the world
You can run to vegas through hidden valley pretty effortlessly. Even get some free experience from rad scorpions.
>Try that without mods or exploits
Never downloaded a single mod in 1k+ hours. Pressing spacebar is not an exploit.
>picrel
I only see moronicly high mountains being walled. The ones where there is nothing on the top, it's literally just rocks.
>FO3 was critically acclaimed at released.
And then nv came out and everyone realized how awful f3 was.
>everyone uses Repair because of Jury Rigging
Pretty much everyone I know uses Major Knight for repairs.
>And then nv came out and everyone realized how awful f3 was
That isn’t what happened at all. NV was divisive when it realised. People thought it was a good game, but a lot of people didn’t like it as much as 3 because it was blatantly unfinished and less sandboxy.
I distinctly remember some people even saying that NV was “boring” in comparison to 3.
>I distinctly remember some people even saying that NV was “boring” in comparison to 3.
Take your meds.
I played New Vegas day one pirate. It was a massive disappointment. Empty desert, walking simulator, railroaded start, no interesting architecture, music was dogshit, quests felt paper thin, New Vegas itself as a city was the ultimate disappointment I’ve ever experienced in any game with how underwhelming it was, graphics weren’t improved, ammo was too plentiful, healing items and caps overflowed to the point that it became piss easy even on the hardest difficulty, the characters were mostly absurd clowns, enemies were much more rare, Mr Vegas sounded like a man transitioning into becoming a woman.
It was all just terrible. The fleshed out factions and added ADS did not make up for such a bland world.
Shit bait
Predicable non reply. Try again when you aren’t so angry.
>Pretty much everyone I know uses Major Knight for repairs.
Do they do the ole "Squat behind his ass and steal all your money back" trickeroo?
Maybe I have a limited perspective of the New Vegas playerbase because my engagement is mostly limited to glancing at r*ddit and youtube comments when looking up some obscure mechanic or trying to troubleshoot a quest, but from what I've encountered everyone just cannot shut up about Jury Rigging, to the point where I'm becoming agitated with it.
>Pretty much everyone I know uses Major Knight for repairs.
I thought nobody used the Repair vendors because they're so prohibitively expensive
>but you have so much money
Way later and only really if you have high repair
>Way later and only really if you have high repair
Not him but not necessarily true. You could potentially get away with low repair if you just break the bank at Sierra Madre and stock up on repair kits. It'll be slower, but you will still get rich.
For me though, it's all about getting a repairman to 100% all of my vendor fodder and then stealing all my money back cause the dumbass put it in his pocket.
GaaS online games have their audience, it seems.
GOD TIER EXPLORATION AND THE BEST CHARACTER OF ALL THE SERIES
MODUS
cope redditor
it’s the same people that play every free to play game
The main quest was a nice change of pace although the gameplay is MMO trash
Not even Fallout 4 with multiplayer
Also we are getting shitty DLCs about the brotherhood instead of the enclave who were introduced back in the main quest instead of hamfisting them like BoS
/fog/ is purely 76 players. I guess if you liked the gameplay in 4 and don't mind it being always online GaaS shit it's an improvement over 4 since the writing in 4 is so bad that it doesn't matter
It's one autismo spamming that shit non stop because he hates the fact that Ganker likes Black Isle and Obsidian Fallouts better than Bethesda's.
New Vegas is the go to game for troons to use as idpol propaganda vehicle because it's widely known, beloved, and has themes that could technically be described as political. So the leftroons latched onto it to convert normalgays to their diseased ideology because "muh how can you possibly dislike our dogshit politics in your vidya if one of your beloved games has politics in it? It's literally the same thing!"
It's also your go to game when you want an accessible, intuitive RPG with a lot of roleplaying freedom, so it's a suitable vessel for a troony to project an idealized avatar into.
NV itself is good, it's just coincidentally also good for being used as a tool for a special kind of mental illness. Just because you can use a kitchen knife to castrate yourself, that doesn't mean that every chef in existence is a eunuch.
troonys love complex multi layer games like all women do.
people read too much into it. the simple answer is that autism and trooning out are super tied together for some reason, and autists like old rpg video games.
some people are just born that way, nothing can cure birth defect anon.
lgbt friendly game with a strong mod community
How is it lgbt friendly?
It's been well over a decade and I can still hear his voice
The game's approach with the different factions and outcomes to some quests give it a surprising amount of replay value
Because there aren't many good enough games that copy 3D Fallouts (or Elder Scrolls games), and New Vegas is just more or less overall the best of the 3D Fallouts in terms of roleplaying, worldbuilding. It has good enough crafting, aiming down sights, compared to Fallout 3, better story and roleplaying compared to Fallout 4 and so on. And like in all Fallouts, looting old buildings for gear is kind of satisfying.
I frankly just wish there were other companies that made good copycats of Bethesda (yes yes, and Obsidian for NV) rpgs, and maybe even improve on the formula.
PLAY A GOOD GAME
this kills the obsiditroon
.be
good morning sir
I wouldnt have touched fnv again if not for tale of two wastelands
nobody would have that armor when they first go to nipton
Truth be told, I did at some point just barge into the Divide and completed Lonesome Road at level 1.
Besides that, Riot Gear has kind of just become the visual representaion of the courier due to how distinct and appealing it is.
It's just canon armor of courier.
>he doesn't go north
I don't. Ruins pacing and I actually like those parts of the map anyway, besides maybe Repcon.
Do you also take dick in your butthole?
no
If you complete the Lonesome Road before meeting House or Benny then both factions will forgive you for nuking them.
Started a new character. Cowboy run.
What's a good level to go for the DLCs?
Dead Money Level 1 is the only way.
Then I can get the based holoriffle real soon and I can still spec into an e-weapons build... maybe I'll actually yolo DM
NTA but, interestingly enough, despite DM's reputation for cruelty and dificulty, it's probably the fairest DLC to play at level 1. Ghosts have very dodge-friendly and clear attack patterns and nobody uses hitscan weaponry besides Dean and Christine, so long as you get used to the attacks you can clear the DLC as a level 1 with no major issues.
Also the only skills that actually matter are repair, survival and medicine that no one ever fricking uses (and they should).
Almost everyone uses Repair because of Jury Rigging, but you're right about the other two, especially Survival. Crossing the 50 threshold makes ordinary garbage snacks into very potent healing items and with their abundancy you will almost never need stimpacks at all. And don't even get me started on the criminally neglected campfire recipes. A simple gecko steak takes very little skill to prepare and works wonders even in midgame and even at low Survival. And have you seen crazy shit like Battle Brew, Slasher, or the downright legendary in hardcore Healing Poultice? Shit's wild.
10 - 12 Honest Hearts
20 Dead Money
all the dlc can be completed just fine at 10+
They literally tell you the recommended level once you get the "Are you sure you want to start this DLC" screen. The only one that doesn't is Honest Hearts and you can do it as early as you please.
On my current run I went into Honest Hearts first as a level 8 or level 10. Right now I'm 16. Hoping to clear at least 20 before returning cause I want to have level 30 by the end of Dead Money.
don’t bother with dead money if you’re playing on survival. I honestly forgot how tedious dead money was when you were outside the casino
Hardcore adds or removes pretty much nothing to or from DM. They even made sure to look out for inept babbies like you and disabled sleep deprivation in DLC areas.
Black person I cleared it, didn’t make it fun. I just replayed nv 3 weeks ago, and running through the mist on backtracking fetch quests did not hold up
>Hardcore adds or removes pretty much nothing to or from DM.
Wrong it adds the cloud draining your life which makes insufferably dull because you're gonna keep saves cumming the concentrated cloud encounters since you're always at 1hp.
Disabling sleep is not even a problem because the auto-docs give you adrenaline shots anyway.
Dead Money has very flawed design.
It'd be much more interesting if the cloud didn't drain you, the ghost people had infinite spawns outside and your exploration was of buildings looking for beds and food instead of gay balconies and diaries
>Wrong it adds the cloud draining your life which makes insufferably dull because you're gonna keep saves cumming the concentrated cloud encounters since you're always at 1hp.
Use the massive amounts of stimpaks you get and this won't happen. You do use consumable items, right?
>Use the massive amounts of stimpaks you get
The ones that I can't bring to to the casino?
Plus, with how much exploration you do it's unsustainable to just keep buying them, since your HP goes from full to zero in 20s
Add in the extra difficulties from Jsawyer's mod like weight and no longer Infinite chips with high luck and it's even worse.
All because it added a moronic feature that doesn't even make sense
It's a game full of passion and charm and the best first person rpg ever made.
Despite having big flaws, the positive qualities are so amazing they overshadow them completely.
>best first person rpg
I like vtmb more but new vegas is 2nd
troony game
Just because you're playing it doesn't make it a troony game, HRT goblin.
Ok but why?
Because it's troonys favourite game, probably due to being very pro-lgbt and generally left wing
>very pro-lgbt and generally left wing
How do you explain that Slavs really love it then?
Slavs are gay as frick. Almost as gay as Russians
Too many pro gay games in this list
>New Vegas
>Fallout 2
>Dragon Age Origins
>Skyrim
>Prey
>Borderlands 2
All games are pro-gay
Gaming is inherently homosexual
Slavgods win again
holy shit have a nice day
>nacent troony plays a game with character creation in it
>makes a girl
>becomes trans
>>ergo this makes people trans and not just any experience where they pretend to be another gender, if they're predisposed to it
it's just trannies trying to claim things as usual. only trannies, morons and shitposters think NV is a troony game.
kek perfect timing

>There's something special about new vegas.
There isn't. It's fricking garbage
>Despite it being really bad game on technical side i keep coming back to it again and again.....
That says more about you than the game. Un-frick your life.
I don't. It's really boring after 100%ing the game
>It's really boring after I did everything that can be done in the game
What's even funnier is that he's wrong.
I'm just saying, it's not as replayable as what people tend to believe
Are you some kinda MMO gay who needs battlepasses every month? You physically cannot go amywhere near 100% without replaying the game and working on sifferent outcomes. How much more replayability do you need?
I think people believe it’s replayable because it has 4 endings. But each of these endings are just “routes” that you eventually hardlock yourself into in an SMT like fashion— And most people only play one ending each time anyway.
I’d argue 3 is more replayable despite the Main Quest having fewer branches because the overworld is filled with random encounters that make exploring the wasteland slightly different each time.
>it's not as replayable as what people tend to believe
I believe that you're homosexual.
>PCR
Haha! Outed yourself!
>240 hours
that's nothing
>There's something special about new vegas
That's one way to put it
will they ever remake NV or am I gonna have to spend 3 hours everytime I get a new pc to patch it?
just yse viva new vegas' wabbajack installation. it does almost everything for you except you have to manually click download when a prompt asks you to. shouldnt take much longer than 30 minutes with average internet, 10 minutes with a fast one.
Literally no one, not a single fricking soul ever goes to this place in their first run. They only ever go there in runs 2 and onwards because they're actively looking for shit they missed or read about the vault 34 survivors in a wiki.
Playing this game to see what the fuss was all about but not liking it, and then realizing troons are the real demographic is a pretty good feeling, don't wanna be associated with that crap, dodged a bullet.
>dodged a bullet.
heh
