Crashes. Crashes. Crashes again and again. But otherwise an amazing game. Shameful how that after all these years, they never fixed the games performance and left it up to modders.

Fallout: New Vegas is the bastard child of a philosophy major and a Mad Max fever dream—and I mean that in the most loving, nuclear-glowing way possible. This isn’t just a Fallout game. This is the Fallout game. The others are great, sure, but New Vegas walks into the bar wearing a duster, sipping whiskey through a straw made of moral ambiguity, and says, “Let’s talk about free will, baby.” You’re a courier. You’re not the Chosen One, you’re not a Vault Dweller, you’re not the secret child of anyone important. You’re just a mailman who got shot in the face, buried in a shallow grave, and said, “Nah, I’m not done yet.” And then you crawl back into the wasteland, fueled by revenge, questionable choices, and a steadily increasing addiction to Nuka-Cola and poor impulse control. And oh boy, the choices. This is Fallout at its peak RPG power. Want to side with the authoritarian bureaucrats of the NCR? Go for it. Feel like throwing in with Caesar’s Legion, who are essentially a bunch of Roman cosplayers with a slave economy and severe mommy issues? Sure. Want to say “screw all of you,” hijack the robot army, and become an immortal casino god with your own personal army of vending machines? Now we’re talking. This isn’t a game that hands you a morality meter and pats you on the head. This is a game that says, “Here are 37 ways to handle this situation. None of them are good. Pick one and live with the consequences, you absolute maniac.” The writing? Shakespeare meets Mad Max meets a conspiracy theorist yelling from a burned-out recliner. It’s dark. It’s funny. It’s smart. You’ll meet characters like a ghoul cowboy radio DJ, a talking brain in a jar that insults your intelligence, and an AI that just wants to be your best friend while it takes over the Mojave. The factions? Deep. Every group, from the Great Khans to the Brotherhood of Steel to the Strip’s Three Families, feels like they’ve got their own goals, history, and long-standing beef with half the wasteland. You can spend 100 hours just trying to keep everyone from killing each other—or you can blow them all up and dance on the ashes. The Mojave Wasteland? Ugly-beautiful. It’s not Fallout 4’s flashy ruins or Fallout 3’s green-tinted hellscape. It’s brown. It’s dry. It’s desolate. And it is absolutely packed with weird, meaningful, haunting little stories. Every random shack, every skeleton propped up against a jukebox, every half-buried terminal tells a story—and usually a depressing one. Companions? Actual people, not loot mules. They react to your decisions. They argue with you. They sometimes try to kill you. And they’re all tragic messes. Boone is hunting the people who destroyed his life. Cass is trying to drink hers away. Arcade is a sarcastic brainiac hiding his ties to a shadowy science cult. It’s like collecting emotionally damaged Pokémon, but with more whiskey and trauma bonding. Is it buggy? Yes. Of course it is. This game was duct-taped together with dreams and RAM limitations. The physics will break. The NPCs will T-pose. The dialogue might occasionally glitch into the void. But you’ll keep playing. You’ll have to. Because once New Vegas sinks its claws in, it doesn’t let go. Final verdict: Fallout: New Vegas is what happens when you give a brilliant writing team absolute creative freedom and a busted game engine and say, “Go nuts.” It’s chaotic. It’s deeply flawed. It’s full of soul. And it’s still, to this day, the best example of what Fallout can be when it's not just about nukes and loot, but about who you are in a world that stopped making sense 200 years ago. 10/10. Would sell my soul to a robot, betray every faction, and end the game alone with a revolver and a thousand-yard stare again. This is your story, Courier. Make it as noble, ruthless, or unhinged as you want. The Mojave doesn’t care. But you will.

This is one of the best RPGs of all time and probably the best game in the Fallout series. After 14 years, playing the game today still gives a great experience, although encountered crashing a pack of times. The story is rich and explorable areas are huge. After 100 hours into the game, I still have lots of areas haven't been to and many quests not experienced. Most of the quests have multiple ways to handle and there are consequences. Followers could take action without your instruction so beware. The combat system is quite unique. You can play either as FPS / action game or strategic game. Both are viable. Achievements are overall very doable. GRA achievements and collection related achievements are probably the most difficult ones. Hardcore mode is more tedious so better to do hardcore in the second run. Overall this is a must play for single player who love story rich games.

Decide to replay the game with mods (including a weather mod) Sandstorm starts Decide to wait out the sandstorm in a nearby cave The cave has a creepy vault entrance I go into the vault and its completely empty with the exception of a couple enemy creatures Decide to look deeper into the story of the vault Find out a gruesome story about how every year the vault residents had to offer a sacrifice or else everyone would be killed Decide to dig deeper Find out that this vault was a social experiment and if there wasn't a sacrifice nothing would happen Only 5 residents actually survived to find this out Quickly run outside the vault after finding out this insanely gruesome story Sandstorm is over 10/10 storytelling
