if you prefer 3 over NV you might be mentally retarded. The only concrete defense I see is "the experience is better" but that's completely subjective, ruined by the metro tunnels and doesn't matter when there's a complete wasteland 200 years after the bombs dropped which doesn't even make sense.
No shit
I'm not commenting out these points you make because I'm not autistic, but
>better speech check system that isn't randomized and can be exploited through save scumming
This barely matters, if you savescum its your own fault.
>perks every other level lead to a much better and balanced progression
Disagree. Perks can be balanced to be acquired every level and its usually better to have more things to choose when you level up.
>companions actually have personality
Too many shitty personalities though, like the dyke felicia day, the faggot doctor and the lolsorandumb super mutant tranny.
I agree with most of the rest and I don't think anyone actually considers FO3 better than FNV. FO4 is better at the gameplay department though.
>sequel is better than it's predecessor
Wow no shit. Next, you are going to tell me Vice City is shit because there's more things to do in San Andreas.
>>320748009
>sequel is better than it's predecessor
It's not a sequel, its a spin off, and sequels are rarely better than their originals.
I want to play FNV again but I'm too lazy to spend two days looking for mods. Is there a good mod pack out there that doesn't add too much dumb shit like anime hair and shit like that?
>>320747018
>OWB best
DM is far better
I fucked Red Lucy today.
It was a good fuck.
>>320747018

Just get the following:
>quest mods (most are lore friendly)
>bug fixes
>JSawyer
>mods that restore cut content, or remove stupid content already in game (like the invisible walls, the preorder bonuses are not given to you straight away)
Everything else is entirely dependent on what you want out of it. I tend to go for things which expand on content or restore things I felt were needed in the vanilla game. I avoid anything that is immersion breaking.
Everything else is option
>>320748397
>that hand
A random optional side quest in New Vegas is more complicated than every quest in fallout 4 combined.
>>320748009
Then why isn't Fallout 4 better than NV you dumbshit.

Also at any time you can kill everyone involved in the quests to end the quest, or complete it depending on who you kill.
>>320747018
This thread will be shit on but I did enjoy new vegas more than fallout 3, in fact I dont plan to get 4 and just pray another new vegas type game is made.
>>320747746
But it doesn't fucking matter if there are too many shitty personalities companion-wise because you can only have two, and the companions I always get are the grandma nightkin and the cute robot that's basically bumblebee from transformers if he was a floating ball.
>>320748912

>>320747746

A random side faction that you can completely avoid and don't run into unless you go out of your way has more detailed story than any of the main factions in 4.
Also you can murder the entire faction at any time if you want to.
Honestly the powder gangers are more fleshed out than any fallout 4 faction.
We know
>>320747018
>>low intelligence actually has an impact on what you can say
That only happens in like 2 quests or so.
Lonesome road was so short and impotent that zeta looked good. Hurr bear and bull and the divide. Not to mention we dont get to talk to ulysses about his tapes after getting them all.
>>320749246
Nigga I did it without killing them, I can be a white glove is I can now (Which I'll not do anyways[/spoiler]
>>320747018
While I agree with you on almost all of your points, I'm gonna have to disagree with you on the companions bit, at least a small bit. Nick and Curie were both extremely unique to the point where they felt like too strong of a character for the game. Maybe it's just me, but they stood out.

>>320751173
no, it's artificial difficulty and on top of that not fun and an antithesis of everything that makes modern Fallout gameplay remotely enjoyable
add in the fact that the DLC almost railroads you in to using melee or unarmed and the fact that the writing isn't anything particularly special... no it's shit. There's a reason it's the worst received Fallout DLC. If you want a fanbase that loves feeling superior to people for beating something go play the Souls games, at least those actually have well designed gameplay.
Dead Money is putrid shit.

I scraped by with various guns for a bit, but eventually you'll have enough chips to keep the police pistol loaded. Then if you gamble at the casino you won't want for chips at all.
>>320752325
There are no random side factions in Vegas unless you're actively ignoring shit.

The tutorial quests :^)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDjyHFtcJG8
>>320752431
but there's no reason to use the police pistol or automatic rifle compared to the bear trap fist. The ghosts only die from dismemberment which the bear trap fist does by default usually, and the police pistol does shit damage and the ghosts don't take any extra damage to the head.

NV isn't bad, but Fallout 3 IS SHIT
the only reason you see Fallout 3 draws the player in better is because its more streamlined and linear

Veronica was one of the better companions in the game and it seems like the only reason people bitch about her is that she's voiced by felicia day and happens to be a lesbian.
>>320754126
I'm honestly not sure what you mean to imply with that post
Fallout NV has a proper ending like how most of the Fallouts do, mainly because your actions would probably have far reaching consequences that the games can't properly show after the ending
Fallout 4 continuing after the ending and all the settlements raising a little flag of the faction you chose is just proof of how little involvement the story has on the world
>>320754001

Also pretty much nobody ever complained about that until like a year ago. Most of the time it was like "Oh, I don't like her other stuff but she was good in this".

Does Liam Neeson? He played a Batman antagonist in the most boring movie of grimdark trilogy (not the worst though), a boring Jedi in the most boring SW prequel movie (and also probably the worst one) and in some really trashy action movies.
Oh, and there was that one movie with wolves I've been meaning to see.
Do you think the modding community will find a way to incorporate Fallout 4's armor systems into Fallout 3 and New Vegas? What about settlements?
>>320747018
>being this much of an eleitist
yeah, in the grand scheme NV is likely a better game, but why does that matter? The nature of RPG's is that they tend to be less fun an subsequent playthroughs and im pretty sure most of us have played NV to death that this point.
So at that point of course Fallout 4 is going to seem better because its new and fresh and you are able to get that feeling of discovery again. Its the same reason peopel go out and watch new movies rather than sit aroundand watch casablanca or citizen kane over and over again. Objective quality is often trumped by the newness of an experience when it comes to enjoyability.
Only reason why new Vegas had so much content is that was basically one graphics glitch away from a text adventure.

>Fallout 4 has even LESS quests than 3
What the FUCK
>>320756530
I like the explanation in that pic. Sums up everything wrong with every Beth game afteroblivion.
In Fo3 you have:
- city built around a radioactive bomb (using airplane parts, why not just use the airport ruins)
- city built inside a giant ship (makes logical sense, but fuck it was impleteled badly. There are almost no civilians in rivet city and the hangar isn't large enough for airplanes)
- city built inside the pentagon (which, in theory, should be a crater)
- city built way up on top of a freeway overpass (there's no water or ability to grow food up there)
- water purifier built into the jefferson memorial (doesn't make any sense, especially when there's a water plant further north up the river, just south of the freeway overpass)
Fo4 is marginally better in this regard, as the Minutemen's headquarters is a generic suburb (Sanctuary), the RR underneath a ruined church (though how they got their original HQ, a DISA office, makes no sense), the BoS an airship docked at an airport, and CIT underneath CIT. What doesn't make sense though is all the actual lore (especially everything behind CIT) that attempts to try to tie it all together.
>>320756936
Karma is subjective.
It makes a lot more sense to have companions dislike actions than have some magical unseen force deciding what you're doing is bad.
I actually really liked how the handled it in a way that does not involve some sort of background counter or score system, and instead made it feel more natural.
>>320757331

>they don't know there is radiation near the bomb
so, they wouldn't notice themselves slowly dying? True, but regardless the original survivors would know what a bomb looked like.
>and there is probably no water near the airport ruins.
they are technically in the airport ruins, it's just that beth didn't add any airport stuff besides jet engines on megaton's front door
>trading, perhaps.
Arefu is a dead end. It's actually a huge pain to get up there. Lots of security, but also no water access. And you're a very good target for snipers.

And they would provide what, exactly?
>>320757770
actually it would make sense that everyone doesn't know the bomb is radioactive. Every single person in the east coast is retarded.
>>320757827
near the bomb, there is. Not only that, they have one building for producing water. Probably underground.
>>320757929
knowing about radiation, and knowing an inactive bomb have radiation are two different things
>>320757936
it has water.

The second main quest in Fallout 4 is you taking the MM from a literal themepark (the museum of history in concord) to sanctuary. What I don't get, is why they don't stay in the MoH even though it's more secure than sanctuary, and Concord has water access (you can go into the sewers, the door to them is easy to miss). Concord itself always stuck me as strange because like Nahant it's an actual city but nobody seems to live in it for some reason, even though it would be easy to defend (by walling off the streets).

The best companion mods are Sunny, Marcus and Ulysses
>>320758037
..retcon?
>they wouldn't notice themselves slowly dying?
more likely, they wouldn't get That close to the bomb all the time so they wouldn't die. I'm not saying drinking that water is the best option, but it is an option atleast.

Since we're talking about Fallout New Vegas I guess it would be appropriate to talk about the Lead Designer. What do you guys think of him?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2l2chWLlfFI
>>320758956
not him but thanks i was wondering about companion mods too.
I hate waifufags and I think they are a cancer killing RPGs.

Rapid fire weapons with low DAM were useless as fuck due to DR

Hardcore mode is also trivialized by allowing fast travel still and food still healing is dumb.

It was just as shitty as FO3's

Very half assed. Same for a lot of the faction stuff outside of their questlines.NV is infinitely better than FO3, I'm mostly just griping about things I wish were handled better
>>320755146
There's a mod called Tailor Maid that lets you equip armor pieces onto a base.
>>320759497
Yes Man, at the very least, makes you visit nearly every side faction. If you chose to slaughter or ignore them, of course you don't get their quest. Exceptions being the Powder Gangers, who are shoved in your face at the beginning, and the Kings, who the NCR make you deal with. The Followers might be the only one the main quest will never direct you at, but it's likely you'll run into them on your way to Vegas or doing the Kings shit.

a lot of common threats don't have DT (hi cazadores)
also AP ammo existed
>>320751440
God, yes. I hated Dead Money with such a passion. It felt very linear, the environment was unappealing - which is an achievement for a Fallout game. The enemies there were just, annoying.
>>320760047
The SMGs were satisfying as fuck aside from the Tommy Gun (In my opinion) though I must admit revolvers is much more satisfying.
>>320759839
i actually like equipment durability decay.
i think Jury Rigging should be removed and I think I have an alternative to that.
You create a single Repair Kit and it's an item that has no weight and is now a multiple use item. You add miscellaneous items in the repair kit and this fills up a meter and you use the kit on your weapons and armor.
>>320751440
>the writing isn't particularly special
Really? I thought the whole theme of letting go and how if you don't it'll kill you was superb
>>320758956
Do you use the Bounty Hunter mod alongside Russel?
>>320757331
>>320760663
I use all of someguy's mods. Best NV modder there is as far as I'm concerned
>>320758567
Too bad the person that did the Sunny mod didn't go as far as the Fallout 3 modder who hired the original actress to expand on the treasure hunter npc.
>>320760763
who is this NPC?
>>320760612
>You add miscellaneous items in the repair kit and this fills up a meter and you use the kit on your weapons and
That's actually great idea for mod tho.

Not hard senpai
Quick, claim your raifu. Or any weaponfu, we don't discriminate here.
What bothers me is that the great war was fought over oil, but fucking robots use some sort of fuel both to fly and as flamethrower. And there is flamer fuel everywhere. I don't know maybe they make that fuel some other way.

http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/34898/?
It comes with multi use repair kits. Also having a wrench boosts the repair.
>>320760047
>>320760272
I just didn't think AP rounds did enough.
It probably doesn't help that rifles and such broke through DR like nothing too.
>>320761446
>stole from the army
but that was dumb why would army use fuel for weaponry rather then for transportation
>>320761616
-15 DT is enough for everything but the heaviest armour users. 5mm AP actually has -25DT modifier, even.

Use one of the Signature Weapon mods to pump up their killing power?
>>320751440
depends when you go through it. Going through it early makes it easier and a quick adventure. Going through it later makes enemies huge sponges and is super fucking annoying. I generally didn't enjoy it either way though.
It also heavily caters to certain builds making it really easy or hard depending on that as well.
>>320761979
What level do you recommend?
>>320761979
>Going through it early makes it easier and a quick adventure.
Hah, I guess that's why I found it pretty easy.

>>320760759
While Russell is one of Someguy's best legitimate mods, his best companion mod is actually pic related, and you cannot deny this.Also, Someguy is the best mod writer and designer, but otherwise I have to hand it to Hitman. Holy fucking shit, he's made New Vegas a much more visually appreciable game and ammo/condition checking is one of the best 'simple' mods around.
>>320761640
They didnt use flamer at war but still keep them in storage maybe.
>>320761616
At average -15 to -20 DT, AP rounds are fucking great for everything short of power armor enemies (Which you fight at most one faction of once in base game) and I THINK high level Deathclaws, but I don't remember if that's due to a mod or not.
That's the bgi thing with NV, alternate round times are in most cases BETTER than their base types in every way - HP rounds can fuck up just about everything with singleshot guns and AP rounds are great for automatic weapons.
I try not to go autistic over people who prefer 3 but I'll never understand it, in my eyes NV is just a better version of that game
>>320761861
>Balanced
I used the OP as shit Sweet Revenge as a Signature Weapon on modded Very Hard and it's still pretty goddamn balanced compared to the shit that'll usually one-shot me.
>>320761290
>>320761446
>>320761640
It makes more sense if you remember the original bits of lore from Fo1. Basically, preceding the great war was also plauges going around killing everyone. This resulted in a hugely increased demand for automation, most bots running off uranium (or batteries). However, the regular person still had gas powered cars (the common fusion ones is beth's shit writing), so when oil prices spiked the economy collapsed even harder.
Anyway, at the end of it the military had nicer tech than civilians, so it makes sense that some of their bots were nuclear powered. Mr. Handys were luxury appliances, like the Corvega was too. If Beth had any respect for the original lore they wouldn't have run over this in Fo3 and Fo4. I also don't get the Mr Handy fuel thing either, because they're clearly not powered by propane (or whatever it is) and they don't drop nuclear material (as opposed to Mr Gutsys).
>>320762338
i would have much preferred an intelligent Super Mutant
>>320762549
HP is actually kind of a weird round and I don't like it. All AP ammo is -15 except for 5mm which is -25 (because base 5mm is -10). Claws max out at 15 DT so AP works well against them.
