lots of wasted area that needed not to exist. What was the point of westside and other small settlements outside freeside?

The DLCs suck, the map sucks, the companions suck. It has 4 factions but most of the game’s content is all NCR-related. This is only one of my favorite games because there are no other first person ARPGs with faction systems and different endings. The game isn’t that good but no one else is making games like these so it remains a favorite just like Red Faction Guerilla
>>
The level scaling breaks long before you've done all the content.
Like, sitting on high attributes and 100 skill in whatever weapon type you want alongside good gun & good ammo and you're getting raped by every enemy in Big MT.
The legion/ncr deathsquads that spawn every single day on the main map are annoying and ruin the experience of exploring the map if you haven't already cleared it by the time you get them.
I always play with jsawyer.esp and no other mods so I guess I don't know definitively if that's what everyone experiences.
Also no good romance options. You're telling me nobody at all in the entire wasteland is impressed with my accomplishments combined with a godlike charisma and conversational skills?

damn wtf i liked the dlcs, companions, and the map.

my criticism is that the game is piss fucking easy and you can easily bend the economy over your knee and rape it to death. also it has a few guns that suck, like the smmg, cyberdog guns, arc welders, and the bozar.
also legion has too little content that’s an easy one
>>
>>722644775
>i liked the companions
I used the Sunny Smiles mod specifically because she is the only NPC in the game I found to be less insufferable than Veronica Chungus or Arcade Vsauce Gannon

You reminded me I should make my own companion mod.

>>722644268
It's really fun to start, but it stops being fun to play around near the start of the endgame

Its not completed game, there should be more quests for legion and followers of the apocalypse

>>722644854
boone is my favorite because he’s dead inside. raul bitches so much but it’s kinda funny sometimes. everyone else is okay. rex and ede are cool too.
>>
>>722644268
They couldnt add a few more armors? The ones they have already look like crap, what was the problem?
Also, the voice acting is worse. I know the game was rushed but you can practically hear security pulling the VA out of the booth during Oscar Velascos dialogue
And the maps are just boring, which is funny because interesting dungeons was Todd "The God" Howard's specialty.

charon has an interesting premise of being brainwashed iirc by some organization but it doesn’t really go anywhere? he is cool tho

raul is deeply rooted in his past as a spic gunslinger who lost everything so he comes off as very… old grouchy guy. but a lot of ghouls in fallout just come off as old guys. because, well that’s kinda what they are

I've never understood how that badass ranger armor ever protected its users when they literally just wear blue jeans for their lower extremities. That seems like a war crime wet dream, mass decapitate your enemies' legs and leave them writhing and bleeding out as legless nuggets on the battlefield.

Everything about dead money is fine except the radios. The radios making your helmet go off just for being inside a scripted invisible circle is bullshit game design. But the toxic cloud is perfectly fine. That can be overcome entirely.

Near the end of my replay of the game (last time I played it was 2020 and 2013 before that). Main ones I have are
>Most non-unique weapons are shit and a decent number of unique ones fall into this category too
>No Legion exclusive companion but there are 2 that will ditch you if you cozy up even slightly towards them (one of whom goes on a killing spree if he even detects a legionnaire nearby)
>Despite Obsidian running out of time to make the game, Westside did not need to exist at all
>No reason to ever support the Powder Gangers or Khans despite the game giving them their own reputation meters
>Honest Hearts sucks and Daniel is a fucking retard
>Veronica getting pissed at you if the BoS gets taken out despite multiple characters including herself acknowledging this as their ultimate fate
>Didn’t do enough with Jacobstown and the Super Mutants in general
>A lot of the locations on the map containing fuck all in/on them
>The fucking Deathclaws in that one area on the far east side of the map
>Cazadores in general

>>722644268
Caesar's legion feels underdeveloped compared to the NCR. It has no "post game", as in, you just load your latest save after finishing the game which is stupid. Easily could have taken care of that with one of the DLCs. Nothing else comes to mind at the moment, aside from some of the takes people already posted.
>>
>>722644701
>That final one
At least you can constantly dick down the Vault 21 hotel owner once you bring her enough Vault jumpsuits, but >>722645103 is correct
>>
>>722644363
It's an RPG set in a world they put effort into building and fleshing out.

Game worlds should not be theme parks for ADD children
>>
>>722644268
It's entirely mediocre in every way and would've been just as forgotten as the rest of Obsidian's drivel had it not been an overhaul mod for F3.

>>722645306
>Shit the fuck up Ulysses
He did not talk nearly as long as the Think Tank did when you first meet them. That took me 29 minutes the second time around (game crashed about 13 minutes in during the first time)
>>
>>722644701
>sitting on high attributes and 100 skill in whatever weapon type you want alongside good gun & good ammo and you're getting raped by every enemy in Big MT.

Skill issue.
You don't know how to build a character.
I was ripping through everything in Big MT with very little effort on every playthrough after my first

>>722645805
>Veronica getting pissed at you if the BoS gets taken out despite multiple characters including herself acknowledging this as their ultimate fate

that’s her family. Why wouldn’t she be pissed if you went there and blew them all to hell. That’s completely different compared to letting them figure shit out or failing and scattering to the wasteland with a chance of survival and understanding of their mistakes
>>
>>722645985
Think Tank was funny though

>>722645513
I don't know if you realize this, but combat armor is mostly to just project your Torso/major organs, and your head.

Too much armor, especially on Limbs, and you'll be so slow that you're just a walking target dummy

The locales aren't as interesting as Fallout 3 with a lot of them being mostly dead space with the only worthwhile thing being a Star Bottlecap or a Skillbook (With the Star Bottlecap reward being shit).
All the events (Like Tomas and Jacklyn fighting over the Stars) being in the exact same spots every time makes repeat playthroughs a little dull.
The Legion isn't as fleshed out as other factions.
Most of the unique weapons are locked behind Vendotron.
Companions aren't as fun as 3 or 4, Karma means diddly dick and nobody is outright "Evil" like Clover or Jericho.
New Vegas itself is underwhelming.
Half of the cute girls are whores or dykes, and there's no cute boys to pal around with like Butch.
Fiends give you a Good Karma reward so trying to roleplay as someone with Bad Karma is basically impossible unless you're a kleptomaniac.
Some of the longest quests have the lamest rewards making it not worth the effort.
Red Lucy doesn't currently have her feet or pussy in my mouth right now.
Too much fucking talking in all the DLCs, OWB and Lonesome Road being the worst, and if you skip dialogue you might click something that fucks up your playthrough.
Dr. Dala isn't massaging my teddy bear cock right now.
Stealth Suit isn't feeling around my entire body while I'm helpless to stop her right now.
Power Armor Training being locked behind either helping the Brotherhood of Hikkikomori or Arcade Gannon's quivering butthole adventure.
No option to enslave people, in a game where one of the factions enslaves people.
Not many options to be petty mustache twirling evil like in 3. (Sometimes you just wanna be a dick, not a megalomaniac dictator.)
Casear isn't bald despite the fact that they could've just not gave him hair.
Veronica doesn't wear the fucking dress, and if she does by some miracle she wears the hood too and it looks stupid.
Dead Money just isn't fun after the first 2 playthroughs, because it's just tedious and stupid.
I can't make sweet love to Rex.

Some of their parts the first time are. But even after 5 years I still got the gist of it 5 minutes in and it just drawls on after that. I think part of it has to do with 3 of the 4 members who can talk do so rather slowly, so Dr O gets points there where the other 3 don’t.

>>722646075
Should have clarified further that it feels specifically off when you recommend she seek out some Followers of the Apocalypse and some BoS Paladins wipe those ones out before you kill them in kind. She then goes on to basically say that she was right to leave the BoS and that they deserve their demise when it eventually comes. Yeah she can still be annoyed at the player for doing it but literally everyone wants them dead. House really said it best: “Shiny power armor doesn’t count for much when you’re outnumbered 15:1”.

The actual "Vegas" part of the game is incredibly underwhelming considering the notoriety of the real life city from which it is based on. When I picture Vegas, I picture bright lights, casinos, and live performances. It's supposed to be extravagant, it's a tourist trap. When I get to New Vegas after slogging through the 3 hour long tutorial from Goodsprings through Novac, there's only 3 casinos with only a handful of questlines (not counting the Lucky 38 because there's fuck all to do there) and the same 5 bums bumbling around doing nothing that I've already seen bumbling around doing nothing in the Atomic Wrangler and the Vikki and Vance. Plus there are only three casino games in all of them.

I mean the obvious critiques is that the Legion isn't as fleshed out/unfinished. There really should have been more pro-legion or anti-NCR companions. Or if you're too much of a pussy about it, add a pro-local companion that wants the status quo to remain.

Yeah, some of them had cool character concepts, but they have like 30% of the fleshing out that NV companions have. Very little dialogue, backstory or interactions, basically no relationship development or personal quests. The only ones that feel like they have any more personality or backstory are the 2 pushed onto you by the main quest

Speaking of CAPS CAPS CAPS how the fuck are you walking around with 10,000 bottle caps and not making a single sound while sneaking? This dude couldn't sneak into a rock concert with that many bottle caps rattling around in his POCKETS.
Also, carrying 2000 pounds worth of ammo in your pockets. Fucking.
Also every 'bad guy' is a fucking cartoon villain on drugs.
