I hated that DLC until I realized it was actually supposed to be a complete departure from the gameplay of vanilla NV. Then the ghoul sang THAT loving SONG YOU'VE HEARD A THOUSAND TIMES AND IT WASN'T EVEN LIPSYNCED. gently caress YOU POST-PRINT DEVS

"Sinclair? SINCLAIR!?"

the whole "radio collar that explodes when there's a speaker nearby" thing is loving bullshit, especially during the later parts of the quest where speakers are hidden god knows where forcing you to run into range, look around frantically for it to see if you're able to shoot it, and then run back to safety before your head becomes a baked potato. If it explodes, big deal. Load a quick save and try again. There doesn't seem to be much of a point to it at all.

also those ghost fuckers have a poo poo ton of hp. The game recommends running past them instead of engaging but that's not a realistic solution when you're poking around the villa maze looking for your next destination. unless you have dog/god with you of course, because he tears those shitheads new ones

Big mountain was just a lot of hp sponges. So it's actually best to go in early so the enemies will die in a timely fashion.

Honest Hearts was my jam though, it was what a Fallout game really should be. Post-post-apocalypse.

I liked the background story stuff it added to the main game but that expansion was definitely unfun in almost every way.

Big MT has the crappiest bullet sponges but also Doctor Venture yelling at you a lot, which was sort of the best thing.

my main issue with dead money was that I accidentally overwrote my save from before I went in, which is admittedly my fault

however by the time I was like "gently caress this, I don't want to finish this" it was either quit the game or finish it

by the time I got to the climax I was like "what the gently caress ever" not "Oh, I get it, that's clever"

Unless I'm missing something, you are supposed to camp world bosses that take 15~ minutes to spawn, then open a chest or two with a key you only have for minute and a half, then you have to hope that the chest rewards you with another key that opens a chest that appears after completing a horde activity which has a rare chance of dropping an item that upgrades existing gear to max level.

The second key and the upgrade item both have single digit drop rates :v:

It's not hard at all. It's just bullshit. The only thing that ends my life are the speakers, really, and it's not exactly "hard" to keep loading your save until you find the obscure corner hiding the radio so you can end its terror with a single bullet as much as it is annoying.

Big MT owned though. It really did feel like a venture bros episode and I appreciate the billions of energy/microfusion ammo laying around. not sure if I'll ever use all of those goddamn mentats tho

also that sonic pulse gun is kind of fun with the knockback or explosion augments if you frequently critical (lol if you don't max your luck and get all the crit perks in a fallout game)

That was a great idea for a game, somebody should do a follow-up with an actual budget and non-garbage engine. Massacreing Confederate soldiers with :krad: future weapons like a handheld carpetbomb launcher deserved a much better game.
