Not a big fallout or rpg guy in general but despite a ton of setbacks I enjoyed this game, very dense and well crafted world with consistently memorable quests and interesting characters to interact with. I can't excuse how shoddy it is on a technical level, even with roughly a dozen stability mods installed the game was clearly held together with shoelace and bubble gum, though I'm aware its mostly the fault of the game's quick development and bethesda's crap engine. It's also ugly as hell and feels awful to play, and buggy in ways that can be both hilarious or frustrating. In other words, I would love to see this remade with some more technical polish.
Despite existing in the frame of a crappy fps, New Vegas is still a very solid rpg at heart, and as I progressed, collected weapons and expanded my build I found myself pretty satisfied with the gameplay by the end of the game. Player expression in the quests, combat and narrative is excellent and made the overall experience a memorable one. As messy as it was I'm glad I finally got around to finishing it and i look forward to the dlc.

solid game that I don't regret playing, the story is interesting and I enjoyed character interactions as well as side quests. but this is the most over hyped game ever, it's good but it is not even a little bit perfect. again I enjoy this game but oml the actual encounter to encounter gameplay is abysmal and the game does pretty quickly fall into go here kill/talk to guy and then come back. gunplay sucks, story is entertaining, characters are fun, quest design is sub-par. the game is perfectly fine 6/10

I've been trying to beat this game for almost 9 years, and, finally, this moment has come.

New Vegas stole my heart by its amazing diversity of choices, versatile build construction, amazing, yet so simple in its own base plot, big amount of content (and this is a game, which was approximately made in a year!), and that crazy creative space, which honestly shocked me.

However, the game suffers from awful optimization for modern machines, so you'd better be ready to spend some time installing mods for NV to make it work properly on your PC.

Now I finally understand, why people love this game so much, and now I'm one of these people too. It was an amazing adventure!

This is a really weird one for me to review. I went into this with the knowledge that it’s a very old game and that part is 100 percent true. The gun play and general feel of this game just isn’t great. It all feels held together with loose tape. It’s a super difficult game to actually play with the controller.

NOW as an RPG game with an interesting story and side quests with good characters and role playing systems, that’s where this game truly excels. I found myself fascinated with the factions and the world and the RPG systems that were put in place.

I know most people say this is their favorite Fallout and it’s a 5 out of 5 and I can totally see that. I just can’t say it’s a perfect 5 though. I found it so so hard to physically play this game after a while and the shoddy technical performance just yanked me out of any immersion I was building.

I’m walking away from this game with only one thought….THIS NEEDS A FULL BLOWN PROPER REMAKE. Keep the amazing RPG elements and story but overhaul the gameplay and technical side and you’d have an all time 5 out of 5 game there.

Until then……I can’t call it a masterpiece.

Depois de tantos, mas tantos comentários de fãs sobre como esse é o um dos melhores jogos já feitos e que é de longe o melhor fallout, eu estava com expectativas bem altas, e talvez esse tenha sido meu problema. A gunplay é um lixo e te deixa quase que totalmente dependente do V.A.A.T, o correr é extremamente lento, crash e bug pra tudo quanto é lado até nas missões principais, o mapa O MAPA que não faz sentido algum e as vezes mais te atrapalha do que te ajuda, se não teve pelo menos uma vez onde voce não teve que abrir a wiki pra resolver algum problema que ele deu e acabou descobrindo que vários outros já estiveram na mesma situação então voce não teve a experiência completa de fallout new vegas.
PORÉM, o que esse jogo tem de datado na gameplay e gráficos.... ele compensa na história, personagens e escolhas de uma forma surpreendente, eu lia todos os textos com a maior satisfação do mundo, eu me torturava em dar voltas no mesmo lugar pela milésima vez a passos de formiga porque eu não queria deixar nenhuma quest de fora, eu clicava na mesma opção de fala que já estava marcada por ter clicado antes mas mesmo assim tinha vezes que tinha falas novas, eu dava reload o tanto quanto necessário para ver todas as possibilidades que eu podia fazer e quais iriam ser as consequências.
O esquema de reputação e disfarce é tão interessante, cada facção tem seu charme até mesmo as que eu não gostava, tentei ao máximo fazer as melhores escolhas pra todos e mesmo assim algumas deram errado, e outras eu só podia escolher entre o menos pior, tem momentos realmente engraçados e falas e ideias e personagens que nenhuma franquia AAA hoje em dia teria coragem de criar e abordar, é tudo tão intricado e bem pensado que as vezes até quando é uma quest por cima parece chata, o contexto dela a faz interessante e você só quer ver onde isso tudo vai dar.
Companhias tão queridas dando destaque pro Arcade e pra Lily (sim eu chorei com a história dela e se vc não chorou também você nao tem coração), a estética velho-oeste que me faz perguntar pra que armas laser quando eu posso fazer rp de cowboy que é mil vezes mais divertido, suas escolhas parecem ter peso de verdade e vc ve o resultado elas não só no final do jogo mas durante ele inteiro,
Sinceramente eu entendo pq existe fãs mais antigos que odeiam o quatro, sim ele é extremamente divertido de explorar e atirar em coisas é sempre bom, mas quando a franquia já teve uma escrita e imersão do nivel do new vegas, voce percebe o quão superficial o quatro ele é, e junto vem um certo pesar sobre o que essa série já foi e o que ela se tornou.
Enfim, por mais que o problema da gameplay e dos bugs pode ser resolvido com mods, é injusto não levar em consideração aspectos tão importantes pra qualquer jogo na hora de julgar ele (por mais que seja culpa da bethesda por dar 18 míseros meses pra fazer o game e mesmo assim eles conseguiram tirar leite de pedra), ainda que pra mim sejam únicas coisas que me impeçam de chamar esse jogo de uma obra de arte, quem sabe um remaster vem aí pra consertar tudo o que eu falei e poder dar minhas 5 mais tranquilas estrelas, mas por enquanto a gente espera né.

This was a solid game. If I didn't play 4 I probably would have never come back and given this a shot. To be honest, I didn't get the hype while I was starting out.
However it started to become more fun as I got further into it. The gunplay was super aggravating.
The characters were great and the story was amazing.

That being said I still don't think I liked it more than 4 and I still don't get the super hype for this game. Its a good time, not the second coming of christ though.
And its ugly as hell LMFAO. Just doodoobrown everywhere.
Good time.

С Нью-Вегас меня связывает история, длинною в практически девять лет. Именно столько времени у меня лежала эта игра в библиотеке, и каждый год я пытался в нее поиграть, вечно бросая игру в Примме по уже давно забытым мне причинам.

Моим лучшим «забегом» до недавних пор был тот, что я провернул в 2021 году. Там я дошел до Стрипа, а затем у меня слетели сохранения...

Прошло три года с той поры, и вот я здесь, с наконец-таки пройденной игрой и кучей положительных эмоций, оставленных ей же, за собственными плечами.

Я люблю Нью-Вегас за то, что, во-первых, это та RPG, которая уважает твой выбор и реагирует на твои поступки естественно. Я не знаю, как Obsidian удалось за столь короткий срок сделать проект, где практически на каждое твое деяние есть реакция у персонажей с NPC, где квесты прекрасно сплетены друг с другом, и где ты практически не имеешь никаких ограничений на собственные действия. Убил важного персонажа для какой-то сюжетной линии, даже не начав ее? А у квестодателей будет на это естественная реакция. Это очень круто, что такие детали внимательно предусмотрены, ведь именно через них и дается то самое ощущение живости мира и погружения в него, наравне с музыкой и атмосферой.

Во-вторых, свобода отыгрыша. Какую бы дьявольщину ты, игрок, ни творил, игре будет от этого нормально. Тут можно отыграть шлюху-каннибалку, которая съедает своих половых партнеров после секса, и всем будет по-кайфу!

Свобода и креатив с возможностью воплотить в жизнь самые безумные идеи в RPG — это, как по мне, очень здорово и даже важно, потому что на то такие игры и ролевые, что в них ты рулишь и вживаешься в придуманные самим собой роли. Если RPG может предложить мне такое, то значит, что это та еще штучка в своей беспроглядной нише.

В-третьих, количество контента. Для игры, сделанной в жестких рамках, контента и выбора тут вагон и маленькая тележка. Этот момент, за который игра мне полюбилась, косвенно можно связать со вторым пунктом, потому что именно количество контента и дает ту свободу, которая и позволяет нам, игрокам, разойтись на полную катушку и проявить себя.

Мог бы я там еще атмосферу похвалить, да, еще какие-то другие моменты, но я попросту не вижу в этом смысла. Игра меня зацепила в первую очередь за другие свои качества, и о них я как раз сейчас и рассказал.

Объективно поругать игру можно за свое отвратительное техническое состояние, но то лечится модами, причем достаточно несложно, если честно. Если уж действительно захотите поиграть, то запаритесь ради этого!

В кое-то веки я познал всеобщую любовь к этой игре, и непосредственно стал одним из тех, кто эту любовь распространяет.

Побольше бы таких ролевок нам, эх.

Wow.

Now this game certainly has its problems. I avoided a lot of the bugs that the game is famous for due to mods, but my issues were more with the actual game itself.

This game can be quite a drag sometimes, making you do some ridiculous stuff for the smallest things. It can be poorly designed, tedious, and annoying.

However, it is saved by the wonderful story and how much your decisions actually matter. This is my first playthrough, and I spent 16 hours dedicating myself to trying my absolute best to be a decent person and avoid conflict with factions. I seriously managed to unite so many people and factions that I never thought would join together.

The depth to the characters and gameplay is insane and although I have had my issues with the game and various moments that annoyed me and put me off it, the good was so GOOD that it overall outshines the bad. An amazing game and an amazing experience for a gamer who isn't even usually an RPG guy!

Wow!
