    They never really fixed it, either. The actual gunplay is very bad; the in-game iron sights don’t even line up with the endpoint of your bullets.

    Which is also why NV players praise modders so much. Additionally, classic Fallout fans have a different standard for bugs, because Fallout 1 & 2 were also busted as hell.

    When we say New Vegas is a good game, we mean the writing. That may come off as an inaccurate description to some, but Fallout up until 4 (or 3, discounting the environmental stories) always sacrificed gameplay for good writing. There’s really only one viable combat build in Fallout 1 lol.

      I really liked some of the canges they made in 4, namely to crafting. But the writing was so gd lazy 😭 That and the stupid generated rare weapons. Im a collector in those games and it took me a hot minute to realize most those were not very unique at all.

        That was a big problem I had in 3 as well, most uniques were only unique in name.

        But 3 had an awesome explorable world, so it was more about the locations for me.
