A term which therefore cannot apply to Old world Blues, whose humour is not random but arises organically from the situation, story and themes of the DLC, and which is not goofy but ties in with much darker and more tragic character elements.

A ton of the areas are associated with horrific suffering and death, from Little Yangtze and the place where the cazadores slaughtered everyone, to places like the Innovative Toxins Plant and the weather control station which gain darkness from their association with other DLC areas, to the very existence of the trauma harnesses and lobotomites.

The Innovative Toxins plant manufacturers the Fail AIDS that the DLC runs on.

Man I still dunno why you all rank Honest Hearts so high. Joshua Graham was cool, the Survivalist side story was cool, and that's it. The rest was doing fetch quests for boring and badly voiced tribals and a boring Mormon that isn't cool like Joshua. Tribals are the worst poo poo, man, and I've hated them ever since Fallout 2.

I've never actually played the DLC for the game so I just take Ragg's opinion as the truth. Farewell.

Being light on quests is cool because you can just explore the valley. There's not much to find though, and that's a shame.

you want to play honest hearts BEFORE dead money, because it's the most low-key and has the tamest rewards, if you play it after dead money you'll be like wtf i just got a holorifle and a bagrillion dollars why would i wnt some fuckig hat and bitch claws


also lonesome road isn't that bad, its actually a pretty fun challenge, i'd put it above honest hearts personally

You get 2 of the highest dps in their class weapons and the best light armour for beating honest hearts.

on the other hand, killing a bear while hallucinating was a surprisingly fun experience, especially since i brought a grenade launcher with me

Yes, you only come into contact with the dark stuff if you actually bother to explore and engage with the game area, and pay attention to your surroundings. Only a mentally disabled person would do that sort of thing though. :rolleyes:
