Also you can go murder the Silver Rush and you're basically set for life on weapons

You should just do this on general principle because Rose of Sharon Cassidy is your friend and good.

Welp, I finally done did it. I beat Fallout New Vegas. My one complaint is, like others in this thread have said, Legate Lanius is a pretty lame final boss. I give the game points for at least trying to make him seem like a big deal (lots of NPCs talking about what a scary fellow he is), but when push comes to shove he was just some rear end in a top hat in a mask who went down in a few seconds. Of course, since I was going the free Vegas route, right after Legate's crushination I got a much more interesting scene with General Lee Oliver. I chose to talk him down instead of killing him and I tried to do it as politely as possible because I really do have no hate for the NCR. Sure they need to fix a lot of the problems they have in the upper ranks of their government and they need to quit it with the whole Manifest destiny thing when they can barely care for the territory they already have, but ultimately they seem like a decent civilization and I hope they and the newly independent Mojave can maintain good trade relations. In addition, NCR tourism would probably be great for the economy.

I'm a little concerned about Yes Man saying he's going to reprogram his own brain to make himself more assertive, to bad this game has no direct sequel because I would love to have seen how that played out.

Overall I give the main game a 10/10 and the DLC an 11/10, I had a fantastic time playing this it's now easily one of my favorite games.

Now play it 6 more times in a row, except try to start other games in the mean time and immediately return to NV.

Aurelius of Phoenix stationed in Cottenwood Cove. He usually stays inside the Cove HQ. He also has cigarette packs and beer bottles in his room too, despite the whole Legion ban on items like that, so either dev oversite or speaking of his character and bending/breaking of some Legion rules.

I just went and looked at that, teddy bear, toy cars, comic books, weird meat hook by his bed. I'm never gonna be able to do a legion run.

edit: incidentally, what started as wanting to look at this very quickly evolved into a god mode mini nuke 30 minute murder spree and i highly recommend everyone partake at some point.

Hopefully you freed the enslaved family first, or at least avoided them during your cleansing of the Legion there.

does it make a difference if i felt really guilty when i remembered they were there?

Anyone play New Vegas on Windows 10? Ever since I migrated, the game crashes on me fairly regularly. This is with nvac/casm/4gb patch installed as well, and no other mods aside from the official ones. Wasn't sure if there was something I'm missing? I've done a completely brand new install and removed all old config files, there are no old mods, etc.

if you have stutter remover and its still happening, try editing sr_New_Vegas_Stutter_Remover.ini and setting bReplaceHeap to 1 instead of 0.
