I've literally never played this game without JSawyer installed, so Logan's Loophole seems much less enticing, since IIRC under JSawyer it locks you at level 20. Or does that still win out in the cost/benefit analysis?

Otherwise, eh, I guess it depends on whether there are any perks at all that interest you after level 20?

Thanks dudes! I'm having a hard time getting The Living Desert working. I've got it installed via NMM, and as far as I can tell its all supposed to be working, but for whatever reason it is highlighted red in the menu. I installed the NVSE and the extra thing it needed, but not via the mod manager, just directly into the folder. Could that be the problem?  ed: oh and do I run it through NVSEloader.exe or through the NMM launch button? I think I fixed it by opening it via NMM and clicking on the boxes for the DLC .esms, for whatever reason they were unchecked Frog Act fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Sep 4, 2018 |

What level do people typically do the DLC? I've done the one with the robot brains and part of dead money before a game breaking bug made me quit, but I bought the last two DLC awhile ago and now I'm raring to play em Can I start honest hearts around 13-15?

Easily. OWB and Lonesome Road are the ones that are going to throw ridiculously hard hitting HP bags at you.

Ironically, the suggested levels for OWB and Dead Money are probably the worst times to do them. I get that they intended them to be challenging, but at the reccomended time, those lobotomites and ghost people are just bullet sponges. Best go into Dead Money at like level 5-10 and let the cosmic knife carry you to victory.

Hell yeah, I'm stoked to try some new Fallout New Vegas content. Experiencing stuff for the first time ever in FNV is a rare treat, especially after how abused I felt by fallout 4, so I'm glad I can do some of it inbetween beating vanilla again. Also someone on reddit manually typed me a list of like, fifty mod recommendations for things to enhance immersion and the vanilla experience, complete with links. I was gratified by his generosity until he told me to "bing" a program that would tell me about mod conflicts (getting script errors installing some things, I'm terrible at managing mods so I just gave up on those rather than forcing it and breaking everything else) and I clicked on his profile and he's a loving Nazi. I don't mean to start a discussion here I'm just feeling some kind of something about receiving a thorough and genuinely good list of mods coming from someone so awful. Also, if anyone knows of any good nightvision mods that would be awesome, I found one but it needs unified hud which isn't updated anymore (recommend another HUD instead), the recommended one isn't compatible with the nightvision thing I don't think, and it doesn't matter because I can't install any of them anyway due to some weird script conflict. also I remember finding dead money really frustrating before running into a room that crashed when I left and represented like a three hour gap autosave so I just quit. going into it this time I want to have repair and speech up, right, just like for OWB I'll want Science and energy weapons

Dead Money is so much less annoying if you have Light Step so you don't have to look for bear traps every two seconds.

Most of my characters are huge sacks of hitpoints so beartraps were more of an inconvenience than a threat, so I never even considered Light step! I love this game so much. I appreciate how there are so many solutions to the tasks the game throws at you. It's basically soured me on every RPG afterwards, though, in a good way.

On a different note, I recently took my Hammerhead/Flattop mafia character up to the point where you can side with the Omertas, since it seemed narratively fitting and I don't think I've done it before. They...uh, really didn't think this plan through, did they? "Yeah, let's gas everyone on the Strip to death at Caesar's behest! Then we can take over...uh, the city in which we just murdered all of our gambling profits. And we just betrayed our employer for a guy with a psychotic fixation on wiping out tribes just like us. Good call!" I'm thinking the best option is to just get House to send in his robbits to kill Sal and Nero, since even if I want to keep the Omertas around, they're doomed with those two at the helm

Most of the DLC scale to your level and are generally best done as early as you can survive them as the enemies turn into bullet sponges if you go in super late. This is why Logan’s Loophole is actually all upside.

You can definitely make it far enough at level 1-5 to grab a set of sweet US army combat armor, and that's pretty worth it at that stage in the game.

Unfortunately I already tried ARTN and got a weird script error - same with the UI mods that it needed for installation.   I get a nonsense error about script exceptions when I try to install a lot of stuff, like Flashlight/unified HUD/Night Vision.

I'm level 22 now, decent science, guns capped, repair getting close. Gonna level a little more for the gun handling perk and getting science to 100 then I'm gonna do old world blues. I never finished OWB, actually, and I don't remember much of it. Are there a bunch of dope energy weapons? I'm thinking about transitioning into them since my strength is relatively low, though I'm gonna take the handling perk so I can use most guns
