The game introduces our player character as a courier for the Mojave Express, a delivery company that carries letters and packages throughout the territory of the New Californian Republic. We get shot before the game even begins? Well, “ Ain’t That a Kick in the Head“? Heartache by the Number So, let me tell you a little bit about a diamond in the rough.
“Fallout: New Vegas” can be a hard sell at the beginning, not unlike “The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind”, but if you manage to get past the flaws you have dozen hours of entertainment ahead of you. However, the stellar quality of the writing, the interesting characters, the creative perk system, and the fact that the game works with such an interesting scenario despite taking place in an actual desert kept me interested for long enough to get hooked. It is strange to me that I hold the game in such high regard since I did not play it until years after it came out and was originally not that impressed with the way certain things function in the game, like armor making certain enemies near unkillable and therefore incredibly deadly and seemingly unfair if unprepared.
Before I talk about the actual main series “Fallout” titles with numbers attached to them, let us talk about the odd one out and, at the same time, about the best “Fallout” game in existence if you ask me: “Fallout: New Vegas”.
