In this first-person Western RPG, the player takes on the role of Courier 6, barely surviving after being robbed of their cargo, shot and put into a shallow grave by a New Vegas mob boss. The Courier sets out to track down their robbers and retrieve their cargo, and winds up getting tangled in the complex ideological and socioeconomic web of the many factions and settlements of post-nuclear Nevada.

  • I have not done the DLC yet but I plan to do it, although some of them is a pain in the ass like Lonesome Road DLC (Death claws all over the place) and Dead Money DLC.

The fourth release in the Fallout series feels like a large DLC instead of a stand-alone installment, but it is still a great game. The game world is not as expansive as its predecessor and lacks variety as you play solely within a desert area, but the story is engaging, there are unique characters, and you can gamble.

Without the typical vault-centric plot, Fallout: New Vegas may seem an afterthought, but there is still plenty of action, some humor, and a Hardcore mode to increase the difficulty.

My reason for not rating this game five stars is that you have to craft ammunition. I never fully understood which items were needed to make specific ammo and hauling the parts to a crafting table was tedious. Using dynamite was fun, but should have been incorporated into the plot.

Oh, and your character cannot climb certain mountains, which is a pain, forcing you to walk extensively around hills which should easily be scaled.
