    well, i thought of it as fallout 4 in space before playing. it has a couple core gameplay changes i liked and a couple i didn’t. it is the slowest paced bethesda game for sure, which is why i think most people call it boring. if you didnt replay skyrim i doubt you would replay this game. i give it a 7/10 for people of my taste and i would consider myself the intended audience. i have played bethesda games since oblivion and average about 200 hours per bethesda game, usually 3 playthroughs seperated by about a year or 2. for reference here are my top bethesda games:

    1. Fallout: New Vegas - 9/10(obsidian for a major win)
    2. Fallout 3 - 9/10
    3. Oblivion - 9/10
    4. Skyrim - 8/10
    5. Fallout 4 - 8/10
    6. Starfield - 7/10
    7. Fallout 76 - 3/10 - i wish i could enjoy this game

    these scores reflect how much i enjoyed each game. but if New Vegas had no technical issues it would be 10/10 for me.

      Ye, that makes perfect sense, thanks! From your other scoring, i can see the game isnt that bad, but just average. Even compared to the others, which are rated a lot higher. From this i can also assume id enjoy the game for like 30sh hours, because this isnt 100% my jam. For me that wouldnt be worth the full price, but i can understand for somebody that would put 200h in np it would be worth it :)

        Yeah it’s not a bad game by any standards, but it’s not mind-blowingly great either. It has some cool and interesting concepts.

      New Vegas has no technical issues if you mod it properly these days!

        The Xbox version sucks ass, easily the buggiest version. Play it on PC, anything can run it now.

      New Vegas

      Mirrors from a tower plant magically turning into solar panels when installed on an airbase? 0/10 unplayable.
