I ain’t gonna yuck someones yum. If you enjoy the game then dope. But I cannot fucking stand the thing and treat it about as radioactive as the wastelands or as Fallout 76. Again. Personally.
For sure, I just thought it was funny because sooooooo many people will go to great lengths to defend it as a perfect game.
It was fun (to me), but like all the modern Fallouts, overrated in a lot of ways.
I would have taken Van Buren any day, especially since New Vegas’ story is mildly a ripoff of Van Buren since they had already hashed out a lot of the story while they were still under Interplay.
I have a couple issues but overrated is definitely one of them. When I played it I expected it to be the best thing ever made and it was… fine. Like I had no real critical issues (other than the fact that everyone complains that Fallout 3 is green but no one complaints that NV is brown. Why?) but it didn’t catch my interest.
The reason why I cannot stand it is for the same reason so many people like it. Factions and conversation.
When I play a post-apocalyptic survival RPG game I like to actually be experiencing the survival aspect. Falllout 3 and 4 at least were filled with tons of wreckage and debris that you could sort through. Places where no people were. But it’s like every map marker you come across has some faction already set up there. Even if you do find an empty place it’s because the Legion were there 10 minutes ago and nailed everyone to a tree. Then you get to Vegas and the place is fully functional with the Hoover Dam and a functioning airfield nearby.
I want to walk through the wilderness. I wanna explore desolation. I wanna uncover mysteries of the long or freshly dead. To dive into places where no one else has been. Not have to do costume management so I get the right conversational bonus for the right chucklefuck.
If people like that, then awesome. All power to them and I’m glad you enjoyed it. But I fucking hated New Vegas with every fiber of my being.
Stamets woke up and choice violence.

I think its kinda the best game in its class. If you have a better FPS RPG with actual choices you can make in it I am all ears though.
