In Lonesome Road you are contacted by the original Courier Six, a man by the name of Ulysses who refused to deliver the Platinum Chip at the start of Fallout: New Vegas. Ulysses promises the answer as to why he didn’t take the job, but only if you make one last journey into the hurricane-swept canyons of the Divide, a landscape torn apart by earthquakes and violent storms. It's up to you whether you take the job or not.

I didn’t understand the deal with this dlc, I get that it’s “the last dlc” of the game but why did it have to be so hard

I hated how Ulysses never told me in plain English what my character actually did, he just kept speaking in a convoluted metaphorical way, but it didn’t make him seem smart, it made him seem dumb and even though I got the general gist of what he was saying I still have no idea what happened fully

And the divide was a chore to navigate at times, especially with all the troopers and death claws,


I’m gonna be honest, I don’t think any of FNV dlcs are that good, I don’t like them

Good, but the story was kinda weak in places

this dlc could have wrapped up so much faster if Ulysses and the courier had angry gay sex. oh well, it's pretty good even so

The best New Vegas DLC. The Divide is the most overtly apocalyptic setting in the game and provides an excellent background for the events of the expansion. Ulysses is also a pretty interesting character, and discovering his motives and how they link with the Courier's backstory is fascinating.

What puts this above Dead Money for me is that the gameplay is actually fun. This is a very endgame DLC so they just shower you with interesting loot and ammo to take on the formidable forces of the Divide. I do think Dead Money's story was stronger though.

An excellent conclusion to an excellent DLC lineup.

ED-E is also my goat of all time.
