Hi all,

Will my current play through still work if I follow the Viva New Vegas guide?

Im ten hours into my 6th play through and don't want to restart.

I'm planning on stopping the guide at the gameplay and overhaul sections. I'm mainly after the visual and bug fixes.

Let me know your thoughts. Thanks!!

Old World Blues Central Intelligence Unit bug

Posted: 23 Jun 2021 10:20 AM PDT

I have never had this before, after I stop talking to the Sink Central Intelligence unit or tell it I have other questions the game crashes, I have never seen this happen before to others. Are my mods somehow interfering with it or just an undiscovered bug?

Every New Vegas side-quest RANKED from worst to best.

Posted: 22 Jun 2021 04:38 PM PDT

72. Hard Luck Blues

Fuck Vault 34. I know there's a moral choice and all but I'm never going into that irradiated hell-hole ever again.

71. The Moon Comes Over the Tower

I know there was originally much more planned for this one but in the final game's state it's just so much nothing. I remember being baffled by it the first time I played the game like, that's it?

70. Cold, Cold Heart

Really should've been unmarked but there are unmarked quests with more to them than this one. You just say one line of dialogue and it's over.

69. Keep Your Eyes on the Prize

You get some free XP for going somewhere the main quest was already pointing you to. Cool I guess?

68. Sunshine Boogie

Really this one's just a part of Volare. Doesn't make it any more exciting though.

67. Can You Find it in Your Heart?

You kill some ants. They don't even explode in this one. Lame.

66. Booted

There's like nothing to this one. Not even a cool location for the captives to be in.

65. Pressing Matters

Kinda odd they made this a standalone quest. You just go there and disable to press, nothing to it. Probably a way to lead the player to The Legend of the Star.

64. Eyesight to the Blind

Basically just a way to lead the player to Crazy, Crazy, Crazy. could've just been a section of Still in the Dark.

63. Bitter Springs Infirmary Blues

I guess the theme's kinda neat but there's just so little to it. Another quest that's basically a small part of another one though so while it has to be ranked low it is a bit better in context.

62. Anywhere I Wander

A fetch quest but it's a human this time. Thrilling. At least there's a neat cave I guess.

61. Back in Your Own Backyard

Basically the same deal as Anywhere I Wander but at least this one has some cool parallels to Boone's story.

60. Left My Heart

You buy or rescue some slaves. Got a neat theme I guess but that doesn't make it have any more content.

59. Ant Misbehavin'

The Sonic Emitter thing is kinda cool I guess but mostly you just kill the explosive ants and are done with it. Basically just a part of Volare but it is technically a stand-alone quest so I guess it has to go down here.

58. I Hear You Knocking

You repair the howitzer and... that's it. It gets some bonus points for the payoff at Hoover Dam but there's not much to this one.

57. Don't Make a Beggar of Me

Reminds me of I Fought the Law but just much less of a thing.

56. No, Not Much

Just fetch quest stuff.

55. Tend to Your Business

Yet another "go here, kill them" kinda quest. At least this one has some kinda tough enemies.

54. Medical Mystery

There are a surprisingly large number of ways to go about this quest given what it is. That gets it a few bonus points but it's still just a little stump of a quest.

53. Pheeble Will

Just a lead in for Beyond the Beef but it has some story too I guess. It will complete by itself if you follow Mortimer in Beyond the Beef or shoot up the casino.

52. Unfriendly Persuasion

A neat bit of story information I guess but you aren't really missing anything if you skip it.

51. Classic Inspiration

Super straightforward and easy to miss. Nothing too thrilling on this one but I guess it has a cool theme and little mechanic. I'd reckon it mostly just exists to get players exploring.

50. Return to Sender

A very protracted fetch quest with a buggy speech at the end. This one doesn't bother me as much as other fetch quests though for some reason. Maybe because it really gets you around the map, not just retreading old ground. Ranger Sequoia is a nice bonus too.

49. We Are Legion

Basically just Restoing Hope but with less stuff and the other way around.

48. Restoring Hope

The first half of the quest isn't much but the assault on Nelson is a good time.

47. Cry Me a River

Short but sweet story about someone who just doesn't belong. Another one that maybe should've been unmarked but I can't complain too much.

46. Eye for an Eye

It's got some cool espionage vibes but is pretty simple and short. Worth doing though.

45. The Finger of Suspicion

This one's just a lead in for the Legion half of I Put a Spell on You. It's a neat scenario but that's all this is so it can't get that much credit.

44. There Stands the Grass

This one will either be a fun trot through a creepy vault with a neat choice at the end or a maze of very unfun horrors depending on how high your repair skill is. That choice at the end is pretty fun though I guess. Shame I never side with Keely since causing that explosion without dying makes me want to die myself.

43. ED-E My Love

ED-E is great but his quest just isn't much of anything. The choice at the end has zero depth to it and while the audio logs are cool I guess, they aren't anywhere near as good as the Lonesome Road ones.

42. My Kind of Town

This normally would be lower since it's just a choice of how much you like the NCR but Primm Slimm is a part of this quest which bumps it up to here.

41. Boulder City Showdown!

Fun little scenario but not a whole lot of depth to it. I do like how intense the fighting can get if you set things off.

40. Wheel of Fortune

This one's got a nice twist for the first time around but on subsequent playthroughs you can just get the killing over with early then get whatever supplies you actually want.

39. We Will All Go Together

Most of it is just collecting the dog-tags which isn't exactly thrilling but meeting Private Edwards at the end of it makes up for that I think.

38. Flags of Our Foul-Ups

Some colourful characters in this one but it's pretty short. Still it's fun to see how your actions impact the ending slides and radio broadcast.

37. Climb Ev'ry Mountain

A nice little story but nothing mindblowing. Definitely worth having in the game though.

36. Heartaches by the Number

There's some nice story here but the quest basically boils down to looking through some ruined caravans then committing some murder. It's also a huge pain to start.

35. You Can Depend on Me

Mostly just some errands to run but I guess stealing from the Gun Runners is pretty fun.

34. High Times

Simple but effective. It humanizes drug addicts which is pretty cool too. Not sure why I like it so much but it's good stuff.

33. Debt Collector

Kinda fun to punch people in the face collecting debts and getting the ghoul to kill you by insulting him never gets old. Not a whole lot to this one but there's some wacky fun for sure. Wang Dang Atomic Tango-lite.

32. For Auld Lang Syne

I found many of the remnants in my travels in the Mojava before I found this quest so seeing how they all find importance is cool. Mostly just a nostalgia trip for old fans but it's still a great time to see the Enclave back in actions at Hoover Dam.

31. Aba Daba Honeymoon

Some much needed extra characterization and story for the Khans. The quest itself isn't super thrilling but going into Vault 3 is a good time I guess. Needing the Khan disguise could've been better explained.

30. The Legend of the Star/A Valuable Lesson

Basically just a collectathon but it makes exploring locations in the Mojave more interesting. I've poked my head into areas I otherwise wouldn't have to collect those little stars. The reward is purposefully disappointing but I suppose the real reward is the fun we had and the Malcolm Holmes we killed along the way!

29. The Coyotes

A fun little mystery to solve. I don't have a ton to say on this one since I've only played it once I think but I do remember it being fun so there's that.

28. Volare!

Basically just a bunch of busy work. The Boomers are a really cool faction so it's a shame this is the best Obsidian could do with them. Oh well, at least surfacing the bomber is a cool little set-piece.

27. Young Hearts

This one would be much lower down if it weren't for the option to send the girl in to get killed. That's just so wonderfully horrible it deserves some praise. Other than that it's just Bye Bye Love without the intrigue.

26. Bleed Me Dry

There isn't a whole lot of story to this one but it forces the player to confront dangerous enemies they might otherwise run away from which is fun. I would almost never fight Deathclaws or Cazadors normally but this quest always has me running straight into them. What people do for "love"...

25. Why Can't We Be Friends?

One of those quests that sets up a scenario with a quandary then asks you to pick a side. This particular choice is pretty neat I guess but doesn't stand out too much. The option to destroy the vault is pretty fun though.

24. Crazy, Crazy, Crazy

Climbing up Black Mountain has a definite vibe to it but once you're done with the combat there's just not a lot too it. You repair the robot or commit some murder and it's done before you even really get a chance to know Tabitha. Then again I don't listen to the radio so maybe I'm biased. At least you get Raul out of it.

23. Three-Card Bounty

Pretty simple, there are three troublesome fiends, kill them. The aspect of not mangling their heads is a fun twist to that format and there are some other cool options like luring Driver Nephi to the camp to get destroyed by first-recon. Mostly it's just good to finally give Cook-Cook what's coming to him. Shame they cut the dialogue with the Fiends. Get fucked.

22. I Could Make You Care

Not the best companion quest but not too bad either. Gameplay wise it's kinda shallow but I like how it explores Veronica's relationship with the Elder and the BOS as a whole. I like how it sets up the idea that you can change the Brotherhood but at the end of the day they're much too stubborn for that. All you can control is Veronica's reaction to that fact.

21. One for My Baby

This one's absolutely iconic. Seeing that old bastard's head go splat never gets old and the detective work to figure out it is was very fun the first time around. It would've been awesome if who did it was randomized every game but that's probably asking for too much.

20. Come Fly With Me

Super goofy but also a lot of fun. A lot of players seem to dislike the Nightkin and fetch-quest portions but personally I like them. The quest probably comes a bit early in the game for most people I think. The Nightkin slaughtering Ghouls in desperate hope of finding a Stealth Boy shipment that isn't there is a very sad story. I like how you can sabotage the flight and Chris is a fun character too.

19. Nothin' But a Hound Dog

A simple quest saved by its awesome theme. Rex is a very good boy and I get him a new brain every game!

18. Ghost Town Gunfight/Run Goodsprings Run

Super simple but it's a great micro-chasm of the rest of the game. Plus, because every player finds it all the characters are super iconic and seared into the memory of any fan of the game. I must've played this quest more times than any other in the game but it's still a good time.

17. G.I. Blues

The Kings are such a lovable bunch that this one's a joy to do every time. The bodyguard part is unlike anything else you have to do in the game and the subplot with the NCR squatters (though hamstrung by cut squatter camps) is an interesting dynamic. Whether the Kings are a positive thing for Freeside or not is a genuine question to ask which makes this quest one of the better ones.

16. I Fought the Law

The assault on the prison is way too good. The rest of it is eh but siding with the NCR and taking the prison is such a good time this quest gets this rank just from that.

15. Guess Who I Saw Today

I'm probably quite biased because I absolutely love Lily as a character. The gameplay on this one is admittedly pretty straightforward but the story of Dr. Henry trying to find a cure sucks me in every time. It feels like a much better end to the story of the Super Mutants and the Nightkin than Crazy, Crazy, Crazy is.

14. Talent Pool

Okay, this one isn't exactly deep but it's some wonderful New Vegas goofiness. Seeing the acts perform once you collect them is a great payoff. I also love how one of them is on the run from the child of your character in Fallout 2, it's a nice touch.

13. Birds of a Feather

Super underrated quest. The guard duty portion is very unique and a great way to take out Pacer for the NCR or take out the Van Graff's for the BOS. Having to choose whether to get Cass killed is fun too. The climax in the warehouse is a great twist too although I dislike how you can't choose whether to side with the Legion or not. It just sucks how you get bad Legion rep without it telling you first.

12. I Put a Spell on You

Both the Legion and NCR routes are full of fun activities and are just a thrill ride the whole way through. On the NCR side finding and exposing Curtis is just so satisfying and on the Legion side well, you get to blow up a train. Nothing more satisfying than seeing that monorail go boom.

11. The White Wash

Just one of the games' murder mysteries. This one does have some extra spiciness though because it's not 100% clear whether the murderer should be turned in. This one's extra fun if you bring Arcade along. Personally, I like to turn him in since it provides closure for the people worrying about the soldier and they are stealing the water and making people potentially lose their jobs. I've seen decent arguments that go the other way though so who can say for sure.

10. Someone to Watch Over Me

One of the best and most overlooked stories in the game. Every section has plenty of methods of completion, especially the ending one. I also love how if you enter the Hostetler home before you start the quest Ms. Hostetler will tell you to leave her home because to her you're just some weirdo who wandered in. It's a shame you can't start this quest with low Speech since that's how I build all my characters these days.

9. Oh My Papa

Not really a side quest since I don't think it can be started outside of the main quest but we'll include it. Convincing the Khans to not lead themselves into their own demise is surprisingly difficult, they really hate the NCR. The ways you can are all fun though and choosing how the Khans should handle their future is a tough choice.

8. Wang Dang Atomic Tango

Do I even need to justify this one? It has Fisto. There's your justification.

7. I Don't Hurt Anymore

Such a good story. Few games could tackle as serious a subject as this without messing it up but New Vegas nails it.

6. That Lucky Old Sun

Fantastic is one of the funniest characters in the game. I'm convinced his dialogue was written with meme potential in mind. Besides him there's a fun choice in this one, a giant laser you can use as a weapon, and the option to rain spacer beam death down on the NCR soldiers below. The Legion occupying it after that last option is just great too. This one's a clear classic.

5. How Little We Know

It's not as layered and complex as Beyond the Beef but this one's got a vibe for sure. Seeing Cachino get smoked by Big Sal will never get old and there are so many fun little details to this one. Uncovering a secret serial killer, uncovering someone being framed for a crime, destroying a weapon shipment with thermite, there's just so much to this one. And who doesn't love the Pimp-Boy?

4. Still in the Dark

I'm surely biased because I absolutely love the New Vegas Brotherhood. They're such a flawed and nuanced group, not knights in shining armour like in some other Fallout game... That aside this quest appeals to me and honestly I'm not sure why. Isolating the virus and searching the vaults is annoying but there's just something about getting to interact with the Brotherhood that I'll never get tired of. The option to replace McNamara with Hardin is great, you can make a convincing argument for either of them honestly. I also love how the Brotherhood treat you when you first encounter them, if you don't have Veronica they put a bomb collar on you and carefully monitor your every move. The idea that the Brotherhood are serious about security and secrecy is apparent not just in the story, but in the gameplay.

3. Beyond the Beef

It's buggy as hell but there is an amazing amount of variety in this quest. There are so many ways it can play out depending on your character and their role in the story. I love how their cannibalism is revealed by Marjorie's little monologue and the whole detective slant is fun too. Getting to serve a companion for dinner is definitely the highlight though.

2. Bye Bye Love

Not a whole lot of depth to the choices on this one but the story is super good. Really humanizes all the prostitutes you see around and makes you excited to get your revenge on Omertas for being just the worst people.

1. I Forgot to Remember to Forget

Boone has one of the best stories of any character in the game. When I first played this I really was not expecting that to be what happened to his wife. And I'm saying it that way just in case someone is reading this without having played this quest. You must play this quest. It's difficult to know how to feel about Boone and how Boone should feel given everything he's done. The conclusion with the Legion attack is the perfect end for Boone's story arc.

This took way too long please validate my life choices.

Hardcore Dead Money

Posted: 22 Jun 2021 08:29 PM PDT

This is what a DLC should feel like. OWB and Honest Hearts were fun but the former was tedious as fuck and the latter was a theme park ride. I'm loving solving puzzles and being on the brink of my seat with Dead Money. It feels like a completely different game with NV mechanics.

Which ENB is the least demanding?

Posted: 23 Jun 2021 04:31 AM PDT

Asking because I've tried Rudy ENB and turned most of my mods off (and the mods arent too crazy neither), and the fps for my laptop dropped harder than my ex's momma down the stairs (just kidding, but not the frame part).

I realized theres a lot of other enbs out there and wanna know if there are enbs that are not too demanding that my lappy can handle

Greatly appreciate any input, THANKS!
