The only mod I can't do without is Ragea122's Goodsprings House. It's my beloved home base. And an unlimited followers mod. I love coming home and seeing Cass and Raul hanging out around the big campfire.

I've only picked up Boone thus far. Haven't even made it to the 188 to get Veronica. This is a slow run for me. But it is fun starting off so...new. Just finished Come Fly with Me. I love that quest. Just my kind of thing with that old 50's sci fi feel like OWB.

I'm a long ways from doing any one of the companion quests.

Yeah, that's one of my favorite quests, too. When I did it this time, I realized that I'd mistakenly thought taking Arcade there would trigger one of his dialogues. It was Repconn HQ I needed to go to, not there. Total facepalm moment, as I kept wandering around with him, at the wrong location.

You know, Vault 22 wasn't too bad with Lily. Sneak was super effective, so I was able to take out spore carriers much quicker and easier than last time.

Now I need to figure out where Rex is. He's not at the 38, so he must be in Freeside...after you upgrade ED-E, that static gets loud, and it's kind of driving me batty. And I noticed that in some locations, his laser appears red, instead of blue, like it should be.

Oh! I forgot to mention - I went into the Broc Flower cave, and was greeted by mass quantities if ROUS, ala The Princess Bride. Wild Wasteland is funny. I was just happy for some respite from Legion assassins.

But I walked away with the Ratslayer, so yay.

Finally got around to playing Lonesome Road after putting it off for so long. What a rotten experience that was. It certainly lived up to its reputation as the worst of the four story DLC packs, which is why I put it off for so long.

Honest Hearts and Old World Blues are the only two that get played now during my runs through New Vegas.

I agree that OWB and HH have the best atmosphere and more replayability.

You don't want a male Kreia in New Vegas? Conclusion: Begot!
OK, that's fine.

DEAD MONEY is annoying/exciting (based on your gameplay preference)... more annoying IMO.

NV is quite fun, even without mods and DLCs

Those are probably the only ones I'll do this time, too. Although I might do Dead Money, for Christine alone.

Yep, I felt the same way, on pretty much all counts. Those freaking collars, the creepy music, and the sound the Ghosts made, yeah. Terrifying for me, but the story and anticipation was fantastic. I loved God/Dog, too. Dean Domino can stick it.

And I wanted The Lonesome Road to just be over. Didn't even bother with the Courier's Mile.

I just got another Wild Wasteland trigger, with Rex. Jimmy's in the well!

I find Dead Money weirdly addicting. Like, I just get through the tortuous ending and I'm wondering if I don't want to go back and replay it again. Must be the Bioshock fan in me.

Lonesome Road has the awesome ED-E quests! And the high climbing. I love anything that lets me climb. I think that DLC was for the kind of people who thrive on punishing combat, though. I didn't do Courier's Mile, either, because it's just ridiculous. My Courier isn't that suicidal.

 Last night, I thought I'd do Benny's quest a little differently than I had been. I talked to Swank, per Mr. House's suggestion. I got the evidence, then told him Benny had to die. Then went and talked to Benny, (being allowed to pack heat - thanks, Swank!), and got the option to go up to the Presidential Suite with him to talk about it, sans bodyguards. We talked, and I went through with my plan, and killed him. Have to say, he nearly had me talked into helping him.

What's funny is that I didn't even know you could get that suite for your own. I think I will be going that route from now on.

Once I went out the door of the casino, and got accosted by Vulpes Invicta, I remembered how much of a pain he was in my last run, and killed him. Right there on the Strip, in front of everyone. Very satisfying.

Afterwards, an NCR MP came up to me and muttered something, and walked right over his body. 

Edit: aww, crap. I was thinking of Legate Lanius, not that other guy. Oops.

See, I am a Lonesome Road fan. I really look forward to it. I have that side of me that has to dip a toe in the pool of punishment every so often or I'm not gaming - no story, no fluff, just visceral combat - have to do it. Lonesome Road scratches that itch. Don't want it all the time, but there are definitely times for it.

Plus a showdown, that's been a long time coming through the DLCs, with the one dude that seems to actually know you prior to memory wipe, and has a real mad-on with you for something (intended or unintended) you've done...well, LR is a great climax to the story. Ulysses always ends up an ally to my Courier, just seems like the right path to me; and nuking the Legion into the Stone Age (well...further back into the Stone Age) is really worth making the trip, in and of itself.

See, I see LR as the Couriers path to self discovery and not to be missed. That could be just me I suppose.

Courier's Mile is worth the loot. And the sick side of me thinks its fun. It takes a little planning, and plenty of Rad-X, Radaway, and a Radiation Suit, but it's not at all impossible. Go in, kill everything then walk out and heal up. Then all you have to do is deal with the insane radiation. Not that hard, just stay out of the center of the Mile - where radiation spikes to about 25 rads/sec, and you will walk away with worthy loot. Also, you can't get the Warhead Hunter Achievement if you don't go in. Two of them are located in there.

Loot consists of high tier weapons, GROTESQUE amounts of ammo, aid items, and weapon mods.

Blood-Nap can also be found on the Mile. It's the top bladed weapon in the game with DAM/DPS of 30/110. Better than Chance's Knife or the Machete Gladius.

Do it to say you did it.

Or don't bother with all that because I have more loot than I know what to do with and don't care about achievements.

Not alot of Legion love on this thread is there...

[Addai]

We're supposed to love marauding slaving raiders in miniskirts?

[happy_daiz]

Yeah, I don't understand the appeal of the Legion, at all. Considering how they treat women, yeah, no. I can't see my female Couriers, any of them, rewarding that bad behavior, just to likely become a slave, or some officer's barefoot and pregnant wife. Seems counter-productive to me.

To each their own, but the Legion is not relevant to my interests.

And how they treat families in general- breaking them up to re-mix them in breeding programs. I could kind of see scraping or burning off tribal tattoos, even if that's harsh, but Caesar's program is just barbaric. He goes beyond law and order to megalomania.

...for target practice.

Seriously, it's pretty hard to find much redeeming there...and I've tried. Just can't seem to make it happen. I really can't see how a female Courier could ever side with them.

Don't listen to them. They're just a bunch of profligates. They don't know the awesomeness of Caesar's Legion.

I recall meeting the Legion for the first time.

In Nipton.
Decided to liven up the joint Clint Eastwood style

Last thing Vulpes saw was a stick of dynamite coming at his face.
Good times.

Seriously there is like no good reason to join with the Legion besides the achievements, and if you look its the least completed faction one on steam.

[Giggles_Manically]

So I got my mods in but I am kinda confused.

I thought that BOSS would put them in the right order, but all the mods are placed AFTER the DLC, near the bottom of the list, I thought they were supposed to come BEFORE anything in the load order.
