I own the game and I wanna play the game but turns out I have the German-only censored version because a friend in Germany gifted it to me :(
There are uncensored patches, e.g. the one linked here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0a4FEIJmoOc (you don’t need to understand what they are saying, it’s pretty straight forward)
Holy moly thank youuu! That video is a gem as well, it’s the epitome of German YouTube tutorials a decade ago, it even has a mediafire link xD
I’d love to play it, but everytime I try it felt too clunky for me :( did watch a lot of lore videos, though xD
I highly recommend giving it another shot, the opening is a bit slow and there is a lllloooooottttt of mindless running through the desert but there are fun things peppered everywhere. Never follow the main road, if you see something in the distance go there, search for the sunset sasparilla star bottle caps, DO NOT ENTER THE QUARRY UNTIL YOU ARE AT LEAST LEVEL 10!!!
♡♡♡Nissa♡♡♡
To me, that’s not even really the issue, hell I enjoyed Death Stranding. But more the combat feeling very clunky. The first Fallout I ever played was 4, so that might’ve tainted how I expect it to feel.
Oh and the lack of auto-saving, I am horrible at saving periodically and tend to forget it xD
I’ll probably try again now that I have more patience, though I am currently on an Old Republic binge x.x
You almost need mods to have a good time, as the game can get quite unstable without them. Plus, you can get features like sprinting, auto-saving, and fluid animations back. The crafting, ammo types, and gun mods in the base game can also scratch the Fallout 4 crafting itch quite nicely. Viva New Vegas is a fairly stable and useful modding guide that I would recommend.
All that said, there are certain things you’ll never be able to fix and the game will always be a bit jank. You also have limited perks, limited ability to respect your build, and the game can be made much harder if you make mistakes. It isn’t a plug and play game, which is part of the appeal for trans people who are often autistic and nerdy.
I ought to like it then, haha. Though I seems to be more the Glorified Excel Spreadsheet type, aka Paradox Games.
To be fair, I might also just not vibe with the style of the Bethesda franchises. Neither ESO nor Fallout have games I actually finished. The only games associated with Bethesda I actually finished are the Arkane games Dishonored and Deathloop.
Yeah, even though New Vegas actually delivers on the RPG mechanics better than regular Bethesda games, the gameplay is still based on the Bethesda open world format. It’s probably the best version of it, but if it isn’t for you there’s isn’t much to be done.
Also, if you like games like to BioShock, Arkane’s Prey is one of my favorites from the last 10 years.
Ooh, I looove Prey. I never finished it, though. Somehow I always start a playthrough, play for a week or two straight and then forget about it :(
It’s not an issue unique to it, though. I think it’s just one of the games that I get lonely in and then stop playing for a while x.x
I get that. It can drag a bit towards the later half when you’re mostly backtracking through levels you’ve long since explored. That’s why I came up with creative solutions to that slump like finding every corpse or unlocking every neuromod through recycling and necromancy. Not only are there multiple ways to solve most problems, there are multiple ways to create your own fun.
Yea that may contribute, I started with 3 so I never noticed a difference between 3, NV, and 4. Do you play on PC? If you do, I bet there’s an auto save mod. I use Nexus mods Vortex mod loader. I’m currently addicted to Starfield so I know how hard it is to jump out of the current binge. Have fun regardless, that’s the important part!
Yes, I play on PC. I also already tried modding NV. Though I barely got it to work. Nexus works fine, for a lot of games, but with the Bethesda games I always struggle to get it running. I tried modding fallout 4 and skyrim and there always seemed to be something going awry.
Maybe I am just too used to modding like Minecraft or the Steam Workshop…
Yea I’m not great at it, that’s why I use vortex. It tells me if I’m missing mods or if mods clash. Bethesda is definitely a buggy company in general. Really wish they weren’t

Sorry, the proper experience of New Vegas in [current year] is just actually literally gatekept by your capacity to read, follow instructions, and install a suite of mods that fixes a good deal of bugs with the base game, and does a pretty good job of making it less clunky.
This guide is targetted at Windows users, but if you want help with doing it on Linux, there are ways, and I know them.
You can do essentially a modified way of following this with LIMO, a linux native near equivalent of MO2.
.world also has an FNV community
Its possible there are other FNV comms, I just am not aware of them.
Interesting, I’ll check it out once the fancy to try FNV hits again. Maybe now I’ll have the patience for it x.x
If/when the fancy strikes you, and if you run into any problems/confusion with the modding process, bug me with a dm or something and I can most likely help =D
Great, many thanks :)
Unfortunately I just can’t manage to look anywhere near feminine
My face is really puffed on the cheeks and generally I don’t know how to do makeup
I’ve been told some tips to make my hair way better though (hair oil and hair masks) so I’m trying that when I come home :3
but puffy cheeks are fem, and everyone sucks at makeup until they practice enough. I’m sure you’ll be fine
Easily my favorite Bethesda game. Fallout 4 has prettier dresses though :(

FYI New Vegas is not a Bethesda game. It was made by Obsidian. Bethesda’s own Fallout games leave something to be desired.
Developed by Obsidian, owned by Bethesda, but yea really more Obsidian’s baby so my bad.
I’m glad they have kept the franchise going but Obsidian showed how far away Bethesda is from making a game that truly encompasses the setting of Fallout and its zeitgeist.
I love the game. Not cis anymore though ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡)
