    "New Vegas starts with the most powerful opening sequence Ive ever seen in a Bethesda game" Thats because its not a Bethesda game
  • @hallamhal
    I completely agree, the bugs in Fallout NV are really frustrating! Especially the Cazadores
  • This game wasn’t perfect by any means but honestly it’s one of the greatest games that have ever existed and that I have played.
  • Me: Has 800 hours in New Vegas Me: Sees video Critiquing New Vegas Me: Pops open a cold glass of "confirmation bias"
  • In Fallout There, there's a location called the Bethesda ruins in reference to the location of Bethesda's original HQ near Washington. If Obsidion ever gets the opportunity to do something similar, they should so it properly and have the place overrun with bugs instead of raiders and ghouls.

    you can actually not kill the nightkin in Come Fly With Me if you sneak past them to talk to their leader, then bring proof that the stealth boys aren't there anymore. Then they'll all leave and you're free to explore

    Imagine what the game would be if they had more time

    Nick Valentine's voice actor is the one that I always recognize especially in skyrim. Distracted me to no end. He's just got a really recognizable voice.

    The way I heard it, The Strip and Freeside were originally intended to be much, much bigger - but had to be sized down because of technical issues. So the quest with Carlitos and Joana would've made a lot more sense, since the distance between Vault 21 and Gomorrah would've been a lot bigger, and their escape to Freeside would've gotten them a lot farther away from the Omertas. Also, the plan is NOT to hide in Freeside - you are just escorting them to Freeside, so they can go from there into hiding somewhere else.

    Just imagine. Caught up in a war between two post-apocalyptic empires fighting over a mutant infested hunk of sand when you just wanted to get revenge on Matthew Perry.

    "was Fallout New Vegas as good as I remember? No... it was much better" they had us in the first half not gonna lie.

    New Vegas has consistently endured as not only my favorite RPG, but as my favorite game ever. Despite it's jank the NPCs, quests, world exploration, and character customization always have me coming back every few months. Wanna play as a depraved cannibal? You can. As a bounty hunter? Yup. It's one of those rare games that I've never lost interest in playing (unlike Bethesda's Fallout titles). I'm actually quite a fan of post-apocalyptic shooters and New Vegas' RPG elements are what sets it apart for me.
  • @puppysect
    I've played this game so much that whenever someone says the phrase "You're awake", I'll start running through Doc Mitchells' entire opening script. The wife loves it.

    Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter
  • @LordEdmund1973
    "Homicides will not be tolerated" proceeds to tolerate homicide
  • @HomemdaFaina
    "No, it was much better." Precisely what I felt after playing this again with DLCs 2 years ago.
  • @Tom-lm2tc
    Fun fact, the bright brotherhood are thought to have been aiming for the Glow, but didn't think they would be able to make it there without harassment from Californians or raiders so they take the rickets, that's why they're hinted to have come back in the end slides
