Except he only gives the (unmarked) quest when you're level 15
Trying to take it before then results in him calling you a faggot
Reminder that Fallout 4 has better graphics and smoother gameplay than all other fallout games.
>>344646971
I tried to like fallout 4, I really did.
The level system is such fucking garbage, though. By the time I was strongly specialized in ANYTHING there wasn't anything left in the fucking game to do!
It's like Bethesda refused to accept that obsidian did something better than them, and were willing to cuck their own game because they were so afraid of being wrong.
>>344643948
Is there anything goofier looking than a power armor helmet with no power armor on?
Is FO4's DLC worth a $50 season pass? Is it better than NV's DLC?
>>344648485
Fuck no. Its worse than 3's DLC which was already really bad.
>>344647182
the leveling system in new vegas is the same thing as fallout 3, just with one perk every two levels.
>>344648669
I can't believe they raised the price when all they did for DLC was add more workshop shit and no quests.
Does anyone actually use power armor? It's always in my motel
>>344648831
I'll use it with the mod that makes fusion cores last for 200 in game years. Otherwise, no.
Hey, I fully modded my Fallout New Vegas and I'm running into some issues; mainly the fact that I run the game just fine unless I'm in one of the larger interiors, such as the HELIOS ONE Station, the REPCONN Facility with the Ghouls, etc. I've tried Interior Lighting Overhaul, URWLified Interiors, and just plain vanilla lighting and I'm still running into framedrops when I'm in specific areas.
Anybody else run into a similar issue?
>>344648831
No because it's pretty shitty
>>344648994
>>344649096
I remember being so excited getting it the first time and finding out it was shit. Also is it worth it to play again making just some different choices. I mean I've played everything including all the dlc's and just feel burnt out
>tfw wanted to play FNV again
>remember is too linear
>you'll never experience FNV for the first time again
>>344649318
Maybe just don't play the game for a while
>>344650805

Picked it up on a steam sale but I've already dropped 200ish hours on it on console. I played for a few hours but then lost interest completely.

The absolute madman!
>>344648707
Which makes a huge difference. If you wanted, you could max out a single skill before level 10.
>>344648281
All the power armour from 3 onwards is retarded.
The abominations that is the 'inclusion' of t51 and advanced PA from fo1 and fo2 inyo 3+ is just salt on the wounds.
Those hoses and shit are supposed to hook down under the big armour collar to the suits backpack but because gamebryo is shit helmets cannot interact with armour so the hoses retardedly now feed back into the helmet. Going from logical places over and back into... nowhere of any sense...
>>344652403
Or you can just sluice right in through the Neils Shack/Black Mountain pass at level one.

How do you people replay New Vegas? I downloaded 4 gb worth of NMC Texture mods, Project Nevada, enb and several other overhaul/graphics mods. Started the game and got bored before completing the Sunny Smiles Gecko quest. The empty Nevada desert setting is absolute shit.
I wish I could just forget everything about the game and replay it freshly.
>>344653264
Here's Johnny!
>>344653134
I still think it's one of the best looking armors in the game.
>>344653203
just the optimization ones - YUP, NVAC, NVSR, FNV4GB
>>344653646
>thinking graphics mods will afect the gameplay
Start a very hard + hardcore run with project nevada and jsawyer. Also try a new build, it gets boring if you start over and over with your usual build.

I always keep this in mind but not maxing out lockpick or science always locks you out of some sweet loot

I felt it was the weakest world out of the dlc's. Absolutely hated dead money
>>344654759

Recommend some good legion builds. /v/.
>>344657586
Blowing up their gas bombs was way more satisfying than it should be.
>>344657708
be sneaky, be suave, get a mod that adds in some cut legion content so you have a few more quests to do
>>344657708
Melee, Unarmed, Explosives, Survival (live off the land, hunt/cook/scavenge your own food and make natural remedies, no chems or alcohol)
NCR is attack-on-sight no matter what
View every political decision through the lense of "will this make the Mojave easier for Caesar to assimilate"
Remove Jacobstown
If you ask any NPC "what's your opinion about the legion?" and their answer implies they won't cooperate, kill them in their sleep regardless of the consequences
>>344657874
It's sure sucks that legion already did the number on NCR and it's almost nothing left to do.

Worst thing about New Vegas is it forces you to pretty much go the same path every playthrough. Not gameplay wise but map wise. Like you cant go north cause of death claws and cant go east because of cazadores so you are just forced to go south or west every time and its FUCKING GAY but FNV is definitely the best fallout

You can actually, most legit way is through boulder trap before black mountain. Only question is, why the fuck do you want to skip half of the map and parade into Vegas without money and equipment?

I like it but I understand why it might be a bit much for some.
>>344659586
Skip some places and/or try a different route
>>344659259
I was just looking at that actually. I'm trying to decide between downloading that one and another mod I saw that improves the perk. The other one sounds fucking broken though letting you do shit like craft 18 bullets from a single can.
>>344655253

>>344659895

>>344659586
Thats because F3 has retarded game design and difficulty doesn't exists. I really can't understand why huge ass map with dozens locations and quests consider linear as missions in CoD, but killing pack of deathclaws with 9mm pistol at lvl 1 sounds about ok. Why not just hop, skip and jump straight to the final battle at the dam.
I guess if you removed deathclaws and cazadors people would complain about how it easy to get to the Strip and shit game design.
>>344661735
Not him but when I first got to the strip it felt pretty underwhelming. Does anybody else feel like this? Other than that I never got bored.
>>344661694
I don't know, I think it's a texture edit I did myself.
>>344662060
>Those texture alignments on the house/ghoul outfit
why cant new vegas have a texture realignment project like skyrim
>>344662431
Not enough interested modders in such a project.
Redoing UV Maps is one hell of a lot of work, and very unrewarding, besides aside from a few glaring examples (like those houses, sadly) you don't notice much texture seams in the game, the worst offenders are usually with body replacers with the neck seam.
>take a filthy Cosmic Knife into the wasteland sun
>shines so bright it's blinding
>>344662573
Most of the models are fine desu, it's just certain rocks and buildings that bug me.
Those and the neck seams ofc, but thats what distributed necklace mods are for
>>344659586
This is some DAMN GOOD bait.
>>344662615
I could rarely find shit to ever actually create lol
>>344662864
Yeah most of it is pretty fine, just some odd models here and there with fucked up UVs, doesn't warrant a whole texture rerrangement project either because unlike Skyrim, the textures in FNV are pretty well fitted to the models.
Todd = God
Sawyer = faggot

Every playthrough ends up being single fire guns/energy with repair and sneak. Why are all auto weapons so innacurate that theyre unusable outside of shotgun range?
How do I stop this? Can I get a mod that decreases all XP gain by a percentage?
What's your favourite obscure mod?
>>344665521
Besides JSawyer I'm sure there's at least one mod that does nothing but reduces XP gains. It might even be relatively easy to make one yourself in the GECK

Meaning you won't be as OP and much more specialized.
And with less skill points, same deal.
And with actually meaningful and unique perks rather than flat skill increases like in 3.

i think they just did it because they wanted to remove the skill boosting perks. you can still be OP as fuck in NV, especially if you have the dlc that raises the level cap to 50.
Anyone have a recommended mod list?

I'm a Gaming Journalist for Gameranx and I want to write an article about this thread.

I've played all the games myself, of course.
But I'll be casually monitoring this thread for the next few days, if y'all are interested.
>>344668808
.40 SW has the same diameter but is a shorter casing
I remember some interview where one of the guys who worked on Fallout, no idea who, said they decided to use 10mm because it's something of an obscure round and they wanted to be unique
>>344669476
>10mm
>obscure
the fucking FBI used it since forever, they even had thompson in 10mm especially made for them
they just stopped using 10mm because
>muh agents with short hands can't handle big guns
>>344655253
Roland
>>344669720
they just can't say that women can't handle the big guns.
>>344669720
>>344669476
So was the 10mm in the Fallout universe used by the FBI?
>>344669720
I said "something of an obscure" round
I'm not saying it's unheard of, it's just not as common as things like 9mm in the minds of the public
you know what we really need to talk aboutPROFLIGATES
>>344669120
>Gaming Journalist
>>344670019
>10mm pistols are sidearms using the 10mm ammunition that was common before the Great War. They were used extensively by the Bureau of Alcohol, Drugs, Tobacco, Firearms and Lasers, while in the military such pistols were being phased out in favor of energy weapons.

Obligatory mod question.
I have that Russel companion mod and his face is like missing a texture, its just pink or something.
Should I reinstall FCO or should i just not bother with it ? Seems like a big mod
>>344670748
there's a Russel patch in the FCO installer so if you installed it before Russel, your probably don't have that patch and should reinstall
>>344670883
Ah k thats prolly it thanks, I get mixed up with install orders cause Ive only reinstalled it maybe three times and its still confusing.
>Climb up bell tower to start the Gala
>Clear out all ghost people first
>Place every mine, demo charge and fire bomb I can in that one square
>Real fireworks are after the Gala
>>344670116
oh ok now i understand your point, they could have still used something even more obscure like
>9x17 mm
it's a finnish round used for their handguns, then the russian decided to step their game up by creating 9x18, and then germans made 9x19and then italians create the abonation that is 9x21 because "MAMA MIA NO MILITARY ROUNDS"
>>344670748
>using FCO
>>344671302
There a better alternative? Faces look pretty good with FCO but im open to alternatives especially if they are smaller.
>>344671405
Honestly FCO is poor, textures are good but faces have eyes that stare into your soul and females look like trannies.
Use New Vegas Redesigned. Choose between NVR2 lore-friendly version or NVR3, I use 3 and I never had problems with it. You'll need to install FCO 2 but you don't have to use it.
Playing for the first time with project nevada and I cannot find quests for my level
On story mode i was on this quest to get into casino and talk to benny but for that you need to present 2000caps, and i have 950.
Cannot sell my weapons because i know just one trader who patrols in the starting area with those brahmin bulls and he is emptied out and his cash is not resetting after 48hrs like skyrim
Thought of doing another quest and choose that one with that science fiction one where there are robotic scientists and getting my ass kicked because it is for level 15+ and im on level 8
Cannot find what they are asking in one of the labs, waypoint compass is retard as fuck
So where so i get missions which are suitable for my level and where the fuck do i get ammo, i just found from enemies and im almost out of iy
>>344657449
I'm not considering 48, since sneak bores me to death, but instead a build that doesn't use repair; I always thought it was super useful but I've been seeing a few anons say otherwise.
>>344657571
Kinda funny in a way, reminds me of Joshua.
>>344672280
Yeah I thought the same thing afterwards, same fate as the burned man. Maybe the fall didn't kill him.
I was doing a Legion playthrough too, so it was extra pottery.
I just remember the first time I played LR and the final battle with Ulysses was this big affair that took everthing I had
Then this time he just gets knocked off the ledge like nothing

>>344672043
don't use mods on your first playthrough. go back to goodsprings and find the prison nearby. theres an easy quest there and you can loot a buttload of ammo at the end.
>>344672043
Why did you start OWB? It's easy as fuck to make money, do errands here and here. You can do the King's quest and request 1000 caps at the end, work for the Silver Rush, gamble at the Atomic Wrangler etc.
But now that you're in OWB and you can't back down, sell the lobotomites' weapons to the Sink, especially proton axes. The labs are on your map.
>>344672043

>>344673461
Agreed. Him and Joshua man. I could listen to them for hours even though Joshy has like half the voices in Skyrim. In NV he just sounds..I don't know, better, hardened.
I'd love to have Uly and Joshy in the same party talking to one another about bulls and bears.and righteous killing.
>>344672832
That perk that speeds up reloading would be a must have.
>>344673969
Ulysses would probably try to kill Joshua. Ulysses still loves the Legion too much.
>>344672043
You find ammo literally in almost every box. Go to Cukuo's nest and get the inverted proton axe, get your Melee skill up a bit, and rip through the lobotomites.
You're the retarded one, the markers are your friend. the dungeons are quite literally corridors or wide rectangles, it's your fault you can't find anything. Open every box, there's ammo there, and armor.
Find Ulysses' point and Elijah's hideout, good stuff in there. Also you're going to find Elijah's modded laser thing. You'll tear through shit super easy if your Energy Weapon skill is above 50.
Also go for Jury rigging skill when you hit 14. You need 90 repair, but it's worth it.
>>344672043
>Cannot sell my weapons because i know just one trader who patrols in the starting area with those brahmin bulls and he is emptied out and his cash is not resetting after 48hrs like skyrim
there are literally two vendors in freeside and gun runners just outside vegas
do you not like talking to NPCs and asking them for stuff?

I also consider this game Skyrim with guns, but only because of the big area to explore and the cheesing of the mountains you can do sometimes.
I wish ther ewas a horse in this game, christ. Or a vehicle. But yeah, Miguel's is easy to find if you're not a retard, but sadly this guy doesn't sound.....all there or a decent explorer.
Shit he could keep farming dynamite from the Gangers.

YOU DID THIS

Was there a reason Ulysses didn't want to nuke the Legion? Also you'd think a guy who saw the Divide get nuked would be against using nukes.
>>344675578
THE SPEARS HAVE AWAKENED.
>>344675578
He's essentially a "HATE NCR" dude, and he'd still suck Caesar's dick if he had the chance
>>344675754
I find it strange considering he knows that Caesar is the only thing keeping the Legion together and that if the Legion reached the coast, they'd collapse in on themselves. I mean hell, NCR is shit too but Legion deserves a nuke or two going by his logic.
>>344675578
Legion dindu nufin, they be good bois
>>344675978
That's why you nuke both my nigga.
>>344676118
On paper, I think its a good idea, but the loss of life is so pointless. Both sides are going to fall in due time.
>>344644712
Pokémon GO took over.
>>344676118
needless destruction, you nuke neither
>>344676229
The wasteland is a cruel place. Both sides are going to fall and collapse at some point, the Legion faster than the NCR, but the NCR is a beast that can't feed itself in the Mojave, they have no business there, they should be going norrth to oregon and washington, not fighting over a desert, even if said desert has the fucking hoover dam and lake Mead.
NCR should fortify the rockies where their veteran snipers might actually be of use. They can hide in the rain forests, there's plenty og good soil up north and they can farm sustainably. They fucked up moving to the mojave my bro.
>>344676397
Did this too. Make Uly my ally for a second. He wrecked everything by himself. Shit was awesome.
>>344676531
Thats why you go House and push NCR out of the Mojave.
>>344676118
>not getting ED-E to sacrifice himself so Brotherhoodfags suck your cock by feeding you energy ammunition
>>344676531
are you serious, NCR would make a serious amount of cash owning Vegas that would bolster their economy, not to mention that currency is backed by water so owning lake mead would be incredible, that's without even getting started on the sheer power provided by Hoover Dam (and potentially Helios One)
>>344676694
That reminds me

Can't help it, I punched them all to death and stoll their armor for mad caps. Infinite repair kits. Made marvelous bank.
God damn it you fucking niggers, now I want to play it again.
I've never played any of the DLCs other than Dead Money, so I might as well go for it. What mods should I use?
>>344655253
R O L L I N G
>>344676882
NCR is already spread too thin. They'd have New Vegas but they won't be able to protect their people. You hear about this happening all over NCR territory. They need to retreat and get their shit together before going any further west. Besides, going North would be their best choice. Living in a desert is harsh
>>344676882
That's hwat I said, the only rhey're there is because of the dam, mead, and vegas. They should leave vegas as is, but holy fuck they really need to get that dam going at higher capacity and pump that fresh water to every play they occupy, or at least make it accesssable.
I still think they should have gone north, there's plenty of fresh water in oregon and washington if they're not completely fucked by nutkes and rads and creatures.
I do agree with you, don't ge tme wrong, but every place you go, the commanders tell you they're spread way too thin for this particular event.
Also, sorry for spelling errors, I'm robo-tripping like a motherfucker.

>>344677535
>>Game ends surprisingly quickly
>>344677535
you're quite obviously lying, the game doesn't end that quickly even if you beeline to vegas, the majority of the content of the game isn't in that route from Goodsprings to Vegas
>>344677535
You're supposed to go the long way on your first playthrough. Every quest you get in Goodsprings points to Primm first.
>>344677535
If you don't do all the quests you will get shit ending credits
>>344655253
right in the spurs
>>344677728
>>344677696
I guess it was a little bit of a jump to go from the bullet point of "got to vegas" and "game ends surprisingly quickly", I did spend all the time doing those quests, but it felt like I was missing a good lot of hours from the game with how nothing ever sent me to that part of the map and the plot just seemed to rocket right into things.
Fuck cazadores.

because someone had a "/v/ plays New Vegas thread" where we played as a black guy killing and robbing people and some faggot SJW janitor got pissed and deleted the thread.

Because I stumbled onto it. My idea of exploration was putting the main quest on hold and heading in this direction instead, and then I accidentally stumbled onto the main quest in the direction I was headed.
>>344678918
the game's called new vegas, you should have known you were gonna go there for the main quest.
>>344679102
Fucking amazing
>>344679218
To be fair, they could have made it a little harder to walk right into Benny
>>344679218
It's not like when I got to Washington DC, Fallout 3 started. I got to spend plenty of time in and out of there. The problem isn't that I followed the main quest, more that I didn't and the game wants you to actually follow the main quests. Otherwise 50% of the map is just wasted space.

It's worded 'you must be totlally unarmed to yse the skill. Does it require me to take off armor? Evenn L:ight armor? Never did this run before, and only hae bawx version.
>>344680295
no the vast majority of the map has nothing to do with the main quest. you really need to play this again because you missed out on a lot of stuff.
>>344643948
can you guys recommend me some good mods? something that doesn't change the story, that enhances combat and graphics?
>>344681563
>It's worded 'you must be totlally unarmed to yse the skill. Does it require me to take off armor? Evenn L:ight armor
no, you just have to use your bare fists or some sort of power fist or a gauntlet
>>344681563
first time I played NV was on 360, christ that was so comfy until the game just shit itself and started crashing after every loading screen about 15 hours in
if you win the bethesda on console lottery then there's nothing wrong with console, but there's something nice about being able to play NV and know that your save won't break. game isn't too demanding nowadays, you just need a CPU that's good by 2008 standards
>>344671225
What are you talking about? Do you have a source for what you've said?
The Finns used locally produced German Lugers in either 7.65x21mm or 9x19mm. Both rounds were developed in Germany at the turn of the 20th century.
The Soviets developed the 9x18mm Makarov in the late 40s/early 50s nearly 50 years after 9x19 was invented in Germany.
And finally IMI of Israel, not Italy, developed the 9x21mm round for markets that, Italy included, ban the use of military calibers.

Project Nevada is a pretty god tier mod, adds a lot of nifty stuff like sprint, a proper crosshair toggleable bullet time, NV and thermals when wearing power armor helmets, and some other stuff that fits in well with the game. It's the closest you'll get to Fallout 4's modernized feel (the good parts of it like movement and shooting mechanics) within Fallout New Vegas as of now.
There's also a few optional modules like a total rebalance, lore friendly weapons (mostly stuff from Fallout 3), and implants.

I think the atmosphere does what it's meant to do: make you want to leave as fast as possible because it is hell on earth. And it's super fucking tedious and annoying all around. Really awesome story though.
I hated the ghost people so much. If I have 100 points into my guns skill it shouldn't take twenty shots to kill some humanoid-type creature. I would accept a deathclaw or some heavily mutated creature, but not some pussy dude in a gas mask.

F:NV gets me so pissed. In my head, its why we'll never get good RPG's again.

> Heading North will give you a sign that says its dangerous

Yet, people still complain they couldn't go North, or head through the Quarry, due to crippling retardation and get stuck immediately. The next complaint is its too linear, but there is nothing stopping you going North, or through the Quarry, it's just hard. Yet there are stealth boys open to you early enough for making the trip, so with a slight bit of forward planning its easy to make it past. People complain about handholding in games, yet get buttflustered over this game.
> tl;dr: People don't explore enough in this game and get stuck, people who get stuck or go through the same routine every playthrough make little effort to get around the problem.
Anyone familiar with several of an interior's prop as well as npcs being placed at the exact pixel you enter? So far has happened at Doc Mitchell's and in the Goodsprings gas station. I can't for the life of me figure out what's causing it.

That is definitely not the experience I had haha. Granted I don't usually use vats ever so it's going to take more shots anyway.

With RWD I'm not use to something surviving more than two or three shots max.

Can't find a video of it, but if you get into trouble near Goodsprings, Victor will beeline towards you and save you. Albeit, it doesn't work very well and its led to some weird situations where he appears suddenly in like Vault 3 tens of hours into the game, but it does happen.

I instantly got a mod to fix HATE NEWS and otherwise felt like there were plenty of choices to make that lead to quite different outcomes. You can kill Father as soon as you see him and it changes up the MQ for the rest of the game, for example. I don't know why so many people need the writing to hold their hand to have fun making choices, though I'll agree that the writing is definitely better in NV

bullshit saying because Ghost People take no extra damage from head shots.
They're notoriously bullet sponge enemies. Attacking them on the floor isn't the problem
Alright, I'm just about to start the DLC. Never played them before, as my first run was vanilla a few years ago (this is my second). I just finished the president assassination mission and am level 25. What order should I play the DLC in?
>>344691802
It felt like nothing I did ever mattered. The intro with the VA is about the only thing that really excited me. I feel like the settlement mechanic and the leveling system really fucked up the game. Far Harbor is apparently pretty good, but I'm not going to even bother untill some really good mods come out.
>>344690898
Dead money was like a slap in the face for anyone that only ever roleplayed cowboys or put everything into guns. All the other weapon types have no trouble at all, especially unarmed that can one shot everything with the bear trap fist.
Who was that Enclave soldier who got turned into a supermutant and they controlled him with drugs.
And he's supposed to be really big and strong so no one can beat him at all

You're a fairly decent level meaning you'll be up against some bullet sponge type enemies.

That's what bothers me. If you're a level 50 character with guns skill you should be able to blast everyone's ass like it's nobody's business. In that DLC you feel like you're back at level 10 and it's more aggravating than rewarding in any way.

Going to use only the Service Rifle, 9mm pistol, a few frag grenades, and a combat knife while wearing regular Trooper Armor
>>344693175
everything but STR, END maybe AGL on 5
>>344693293
might also bring down INT and CHR to 3-4 and LCK to 0 since you're an NCR soldier stationed in the Mojave lol

Responding the post post even though it's probably bait. New Vegas is superior because of its well written characters, stories and setting. It is a true sequel to Fallout 1 and 2 instead of the soft reboot of that 3 was. Best mods you can easily find just by googling. Ranking of the DLC vary between different people. I love OWB because of its absurdness but many people love Honest Heart and Dead Money for different reasons. Lonesome Road is probably the most divisive because even though it is well written, it is a linear track through somewhat pretentious sounding exposition.
>>344699735
Because Bethesda doesn't give a shit about their animations. They literally changed the whole shape of the institute weapons just so they could reuse the reload animations of the laser weapons in FO4.
>>344698769
no they don't? they slap a bomb collar on you and force you to do a quest. nothing nice but not as fucking cruel as shelling you on sight

Good thing this got axed early.
I have only played Fallout 3 and 4 and I love them both.
I bought New Vegas today, and now I own all the games. I plan to go on a good romp through 1, 2, and NV soon. I expect to like all of the games pretty well, based on what I've seen and heard about them.
I'll never play the pretentious hipster and pretend that the Bethesda games are trash, though. Because they're not.
WHO WON THE LOTTERYI DID
On a scale of 1 to whatever, how difficult could it be to a get a Think Tank follower working?
>>344700776
That's cool for you I guess. Chances are you won't enjoy the other Fallout games because they're different from Bethesda's games though.
>>344700869
Not very. Have a look at Seddon on YouTube. He has a NV Followers tutorial which takes you step by step how to make a follower, and I mean step by step, it's so thorough you could do it without ever have looking at then GECK before probably.
>>344689673
>>344690898
Maybe this is the reason they removed skills in FO 4?
They realised a shooting skill in an fpsis retarded.
Which makes you think, should FO be an fps then?
>>344701229
I'm a turbo autist with highly adaptive standards and expectations. It's the world and the groundwork of Fallout that most interests me, and if the games are by two different developers I factor that in and don't expect the same things from both devs.
>>34470077
>I'll never play the pretentious hipster and pretend that the Bethesda games are trash, though. Because they're not.
Fallout 4 is honestly mediocre at best though.
And this is coming from someone who enjoyed Fallout 3. It bewilders me that people loved base game for Fallout 4.
Unless you also played the DLC and somehow Far Harbor redeemed itself? Because I was kind of disappointed by Fallout 4 and stopped playing after 65 hours. First time, I've never put in a good 200 hours into a Fallout game.
>>344700776
I'm so jealous that you get to play NV for the first time
>>344700838
UGH OH MY GOD SMELL THAT AIR
>>344701704
Don't get me wrong, the roleplay in Fallout 4 sucks dick and I'm lucky that I'm just imaginative and autistic enough to fill in the gaps there. Dialogue options suck, the voice actor sounds like a dipshit, choices barely matter aside from faction choice, etc. It's a shame because I think Fallout 4 has excellent gameplay mechanics and a really robust world and companions are written better than they've ever been in a Bethesda game. When you have all of that and then the game sorely limits your interaction with all of it, it sours the experience a bit. Still having a lot of fun with the game though, it's only recently that I gave it a chance.
>>344701784
I'm expecting great things based on how people talk about it.

>>344702513
what? Good natured is literally one of the best traits to get. A boost to all the skills you'll use, while only lowering skills that you'll only use one of?
>>344703282
Skilled is the far superior trait.
>>344700172
>because the animations needed to be shared
literally why?
>>344703282
Do you value efficiency over the integrity of your roleplay? If so, go ahead.
>>344703161
Well, at least it's just a gun that doesn't exist. Luckily they don't make such stupid guns that we have vast knowledge on- oh wait
>>344703441
It isn't, though. It lowers your xp rate while A) buffing the skills you'd get buffed with good natured, and B) buffing the one or *maybe* two skills you'd use for combat, and the rest you won't spec in anyway because who the fuck specs in explosives AND big guns AND energy weapons AND guns AND unarmed?
It's literally a worse version of good natured
>>344703770
It can be offset by getting Swift Learner which is the only viable perk to get at level 2 anyway.
>>344703718
But thats just wacky fifties retrofuturism. They used watercooled, sideloading machineguns back then!
>>344655253
qwooo klets go
>>344703918
But it wouldn't need to be offset if you just got the more efficient one and kept the regular xp gain.
Though I do agree that there aren't many good perks to pick at level 2

I don't know if it will blow away. I mean don't get me wrong I love the game, I'm in almost every one of those threads, I don't know what you expect from it though.
The game is strictly better in the role playing aspects of it, the characters are better, the writing is really good and the factions and their motives are really interesting. You are not some magical saviour/chosen one, you're just a courier who was caught in the middle of an interesting conflict. It's not as "muh epic quest" as Bethesda games try to be, instead your actions affect the political state of the Mojave. The combat and the engine is the same shit as 3 though.
I GOT SPURRRRZZZZ!

>>344704331
Well hold up now, some criticisms I see against the Bethesda games are valid but I never understood "le epic hero fantasy" very well, in comparison to Obsidian.
I mean, I booted up FO2 for the first time and some soothsayer lady is drilling me with exposition about how I'm the chosen one meant to embark on a predestined quest to find the GECK and save the dying village.
As far as stylistic storytelling goes, wacky 50s aesthetics and teddy bears are whatever, a lot of that mostly boils down to subjectivity and doesn't bug me so much, but I never understood the heroism thing.
>>344704561
The lore suffered and never recovered until New Vegas.

Fucking anything is better than swift learner. Good natured and skilled are both excellent perks. That's why you pick both. An exp hit doesn't mean shit when you can make up for that lost exp in a few enemy kills
>>344706661
It just plays better. The gunplay is smoother, condition is removed, upgrades are pretty nice, every gun and ammo type hits like it should, the sounds are top-notch. Power armor is great and settlements can be, if you have mods. Exploration is well-rewarded and diverse in FO4.
Little things like that which contribute to a "smoother" experience.

Swift Learner is objectively the best perk to get at level 2.
>>344705206
You're right Fo2 is a bit heavy on that. I meant how New Vegas compares with other Beth games. It's more apparent in the TES games. When it come to the Beth Fo games, they try to create situations where the only one who can save everything is you (biggest example, the fo3 ending), yet if you really think aboutit that's not the case.
The writing in this game amazes me every time I play it.

fuck no. EXP is so easy to come by in new vegas. There's a shit ton of quests from start to finish and plenty of enemies to kill inbetween.
>>344707614
I get that completely. It really gets old sometimes but that's Bethesda doing their best to draw delusions of grandeur out of their playerbase, because they think that feeling important makes for a more satisfying experience. It's an aspect of their writing I'm not fond of but as far as Fallout goes I've learned to live with it.
My friend was talking to be about how cool the cut Brotherhood of Steel content could have been in Fallout 4 until I pointed out that even though it would have been more dynamic, it still ends with the usual "(You) become the leader of X faction" trope that Bethesda never seems to get bored of.

Swift Learner (and Here and Now) are the most useless perks of the game. If you play it right you'll be level 50 at the end anyway, if you do all the quests. Meanwhile perks like Jury Rigging completely break the game.
Intense Training is my go-to "I don't know which perk to pick otherwise" perk.

lmao this reminds me of when FO3 came out and this board was full of NoMutantsAllowed fags. You're just the new generation

Even if you're exaggerating, this is objectively wrong. Survival mode increases incoming damage by 200% and outgoing damage by 150% and does not affect hitpoints whatsoever, other than, by default, making them worth LESS. Somehow you're confusing the difficulty setting (present in FO3/NV/FO4/Skyrim) with survival mode, which is amazing considering you play NV
>>344708838
