so I just brought a toaster back to life and it started singing the praises of saturnite power fists. so like a smart rear end I pulled out the one I already had and showed it to the toaster.

and then the toaster set it on fire

that toaster is the best character in the whole game.

Even when you let him down by letting him know the world already burned in nuclear fire he instantly perks up with the new goal of doing it again.

it's actually the moment where you realize you pass a science check and 8 spooges all over your laser gun

or where you find mobius's house and there's just thousands of boxes of mentats everywhere

I'm replaying it right now with darnified UI, jesawyer mod and nevada skies (with an addon for visible nights) and the game looks and plays really well, I don't think you need much else to have a good New Vegas experience

No-Bark's response when you ask him about the attacks on the Brahmin corral is probably the funniest dialog in the game.

did you open the console at any point during the session where you should've landed the achievement? that disables achievements triggering during that sessions, i always have to restart the game because I accidentally mashed the tilde key or w/e.

I don't think so. the only out of the ordinary thing i can think of is that my xbox controller ran out of batteries

I like weighted ammo and some of the changes to healing but the food stuff was just a minor annoyance. I tried looking for a mod that only added weighted ammo but was never able to find one so RIP.

doesn't hardcore force you to use a doctor's bag to fix your limbs, rather than just hitting it with a stimpack? it seems like that's the biggest change (unless i'm misremembering)

It also makes stimpacks heal over time.

The biggest change is adding survival meters like food and thirst, that poo poo bores the gently caress out of me.

those aren't real big changes though since dealing with them is so inconsequential.

if there were no way to remove radiation at all, not with rad-away, not with doctors, then survival would be more interesting. i don't think it would be very fun, but you'd at least have to pay attention to what you're doing w/r/t food and water rather than just drink out of any ol toilet you see

the only thing i hate about the hardcore mode is that it takes away fast travel. yeah sure let me walk across this same trackless desert four or five times for quests --nobody, ever


i mean at least the world is fairly small and squished in but jesus, give a man a silly motorcycle or a rad-horse or something.
