I'm starting New Vegas for the first time today. what mods do I want? graphics aren't that important but I really only ever enjoy the scrub phase in Bethesda games, is there a mod that makes you count your bullets all throughout the game while still beingfun?

Project Nevada
NMCs textures
Fallout Character Overhaul
Wasteland Clothes HD
Nevada Skies
That's literally all you need. WMX and the Weapon retexture project are okay (but it always fucks up the .357 magnum handgun for some reason, I really can't figure out what is going on there) but no necessary.
And that's it. Just make sure you play on normal difficulty with hardcore mode on. Higher difficulties make enemies bullet sponges like other Bethesda games and the rebalance that project nevada introduces makes up for it. Hardcore adds good features too.

NV is pretty solid on its own. I'd say the only essential mod in my list is Project Nevada, it just adds so much and is a really great mod. The others are mostly graphical enhancements, which while not necessary, really do add a lot to the game. Remember to get NVSE as well.
If you get bored of NV, lookup a mod called "DUST". It's a complete overhaul that's reasonably well done. It essentially picks up the story some number of years after the events of NV. Tunnelers invade the Mojave, the NCR has collapsed in the region, and the Legion is back in the area, a shadow of its former self. It really changes the game dramatically and gets rid of fast travelling and most friendly NPCs. You need all the DLC and GRA though. It's worth a playthrough, but it is frustratingly difficult, at least at first.

I would get Project Neveda for the second play through.

You underage cunt you need to dedicate whole day to pick best mods for you from Nexus.
Don't be a pleb. You are better than that. New Vegas is worth it.

I actually just started using it. I like it so far, everyone looks... different...
I guess I'm so used to the vanilla face textures that it just takes some getting used to. The glowing ghouls actually glow now, which is pretty cool.

vicious wastes will make you conserve ammo, there's even settings to change the abundance on finding ammo as well as other supplies
