I actually cannot figure out whether or not I agree with this 😅 I don’t’ fully like it, and I feel like it holds the game to a feel that’s… Idunno, simpler than I’d like? On the other paw, it probably fits well, I guess.
It had a few graphical upgrades through the huge content updates it got year after year.
Now there is more biome diversity, more decorative flora, better underground environments, more creature types…
If anything, they tried so much to populate it that sometimes I feel it’s lacking some truly desolate environments. “Empty” planets are uncommon, and even those are mostly cluttered with weird stuff and “anomalous” living things.
The new Worlds Part 1 update that got shown the other day looks genuinely exciting. I still need to download it too play it but the new planet generation and stuff that got shown off was gorgeous
Yah, I haven’t tried latest update yet. Problem with NMS is that it’s a bit daunting diving into it again and again, I don’t like returning to month-old saves and starting from the beginning takes ages. Especially that with all the content updates, you get a dozen simultaneous quests jumping at you at first occasion.
I’m still doing expeditions, and that in itself is already a ridiculous commitment IMO. I wish we could just do them at our own pace, the time limit is baffling. I noticed that last expedition literally 2 days before it ended, I got everything, but it was a freaking race to get there.
It still bothers me that the cube inside the cube is bigger than the outer line, despite forming the outer line during the intro animation. It will never stop bothering me.
A raspberry pi running batocera has been a good cheap way I’ve been using to revisit some classics. You can integrate it with retroachievements.org too.
I don’t know if I’m excited about the idea of gamifying atrocities.
On the one hand, you’re going to have the inevitable “What’s the most/worst number of crimes I can commit in the game?” reactionary freak streamer.
On the other, you’re going to have the Model UN Liberal insisting that NATO couldn’t be committing any war crimes, because he already played the Liberation of Rafa mission on War Crimes Simulator 4 using the same tactics outlined in the press briefing and got a perfect score.
Jokes on you! That never happens to me. Because I have overwhelming anxiety and can’t not look stuff up. No matter how badly I want to avoid it, how hard I fight, I still need to follow a guide or Google every doubt and question I have. 🙃
You are all heathens, blaspheming against the Sacred Game, get smited with all the fury of an angry nerd (with a downvote, the extent of my rage and power)
I remember playing this game in high school when it came out, and it was an amazing game at that time for that time. It had bugs, however the branching storylines and care put into that world is pretty evident when compared to fallout 3
Tbh I’d disagree. I played NV for the first time last year, and it was a great experience. It definitely shows its age a bit, especially needing to use the pipboy to swap to grenades. That being said, the architecture of the game is amazing. The map, story, and gamedesign is superb, and now that I’m playing fallout 4, I’m enjoying the new game aspects but I’m missing everything that’s great about new vegas.
I disagree. I’m not much of a Fallout fan, but I picked up New Vegas for the first time because of the show, installed the Viva New Vegas mods mentioned in another comment, and this game absolutely fucking rules.
